The North- western States it aturally constitute the most fertile field for the LaFolleite ci mpaign, and the number of electoral votes ke receives ‘will! \:ave an important bearing on the outcome of the race. lak ollette is not as prominently mentioned in the east as he # as many years ago, and although he will reccive a large “f rotest vote” and will have the advantage of. the Socialist irl lorsement to give him votes in industrial centers, it is hard'y probable that he will make inroads on the old parties outs ide of the Northwestern states. Wiscon- sin. Minnesota, Ne rth and South Dakota, Iowa, Montana, Washington and ‘Jd: ho are his field of action. The battle grouiid of the campaign likely will be, as in tiany previous ¢: ar AE aigns, New York, New Jersey, Ohio and Indiana, with the “ar western states perhaps deciding the yace. New York wil, present an extremely interesting study in the campaign. Mr. Davis will have the advantage of the hacking of Governor :\l Smith and the Tammany organiza- tion, as well as his own high standing in New York, but the scars of the Democratic convention may still rest upon the Democratic organization ‘when the voters go to the polls in the eastern states. The uusettled condition of politics is sure to find the voters in-sevei%al of the middle western states in a troubled state cf mind ad the time for election nears. Pres- ident Coolidge appears to| enjoy a more favorable position with the Democratic convention just over than he has for many months, and as the élifficulties which the administra- tion which preceded him faile away and his own high quali- ties become more apparent, he is in a position to increase in the public BBW Publishers DETROIT Kresge Bldg. —— HIGH Riding on a railroad dining car we pay three prices: ‘mal glass of orange juice, 4\) cents; 2 fried eggs, 35 cents; i mutton chop, 45 cents; sirloin steak, $1.65; glass of milk, 15 cents. ‘These prices will interest fariners, maybe make their hair turn gray.

But it’s still over 61 per cent higher than when the war started in 1914. So reports National Industrial Conference Board. Its figures are for a family of five, averaging the whole country. Many will disagree. Most of us think it costs twice as . much to live as it used to, or more. But this is undeniable: “Cost of living is gradually going down. The dollar saved “tow will have a bigger buying power later. ITALIA Only half as many Italians packed up and left their home- - stead in. 1923 as was the yearly average 1900 to 1913. . American immigration bars are,only partly responsible, fer South America stands wide open. The Italians plainly are confident that the future looks proniising in their own country, despite war debt, and prob- lems... A curious angle is that, out of 348,000 who left Italy last ar, 143,000 moved to France. Editorial Review Comments reproduced in this column may or may not express the opinion of The Tribune.

GOOD NEWS FROM DAKOTA The North Dakota Free Employ- ment agency, working in co-opera- tion with the Federal Department of Labor, sends out the highly sig- nificant and encouraging news that the North Dakota harvest will re- quire the services of 15,000 men, over and above the men now em- ployed on the farm of that state. What’ll They The need will begin to be felt about a week hence, when haying starts, and will be increased as haying gives way to winter rye and barley cutting, and will be at its peak when the binders go into the wheat fields about the 21st of this month. But the need for men is not en-| tirely of the nomadic sort of labor which beginning at Texas sweeps northward through Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and South Da- kota with the ripening grain. Right now there is demand for farm labor for cultivating corn, potatoes and in caring for alfalfa hay. And farmers are offering good wages. The man who wants a steady job can go today and get one that will last him till snow puts a muffler on the hum of the thresher. It sounds like the “good old times” to hear North Dakota's voice raised in a call for farm Ja- bor. .There evidently is truth in the tales we have been having of a splendid crop in prospect. Men do not ask for help to harvest’a thin yield. nor can they afford to pay good wages. Contributary to this cheerfulness is the bulldog grip with which the wheat price clings to $1.20 for December and the cor- responding rising levels of oats, barley and rye, with corn lifting its tasseled head in the regal dig- nity of nearly $1.00. Not onlv is there work for many, a big crop in BUNTING LEFT OVER CONVENTIONS, WILL prospect but ia “fairer price than has obtainel for several years. This means much to the farmer and just as much to the cities that supply him. Business in St. Paul is due for the swiftest ‘pick-up” in its history before the month Is} out. The farmers are not asking for 15,000 men merely to act as supers and carry spears for effect. —St. Paul ele ch. This weather makes people so lazy they take short-cuts when they go out walking.

This hooded? snake kills thousands of people a year in Indian alone. Doctors for centuries have sought a remedy that would counteract the cobra’s poison. They have not found it. And yet there is a remedy, waiting to be discovered. You’ve heard of the mongoose, about the size of a ferret. It fearlessly attacks and kills the cobra. Occasionally it is bitten. Die? No. It dashes into the jungle, obtains some- thing that counteracts cobra venom—probably a plant—and returns as if it had never been a victim. The mongoose by instinct knows the remedy. , That remedy awaits discovery by man. The solution’ of every problem lies waiting in natu’ Nature has a balance for. everything—a cure for every di: ease, a remedy for every poison. It’s all by the basic law that for every action there is an equivalent reaction. 3 - The very existence of a problem means that a solution of the problem exists. There is no problem without a solution, no barrier that cannot be climbed, no handicap or obstacle that cannot be overcome. \ Obviously, it‘is foolish for us ever to allow ourselves to be discouraged., There is a way out of all trouble — if we will only fight doggedly to find it. All of ‘man’s’ discoveries and progress are nothing more than copying and adapting things and principles that already exist in nature.. The principle of the steam engine is the principle of the erupting volcano. ~The flying machine is a copy of birds and insects. f Knowledge is simply the discovery of what already exists in nature — the application of basic principles to our needs. The wasp was the original: paper maker. The bee building its honeycomb and the beaver constructing his dam utilize about the same structural principles as man. The spider’s -web furnishes the idea for a fish net, The list is endless. We create nothing in the way of knowledge: We simply discover and apply things that al- ready. exist in nature. Lucky is the man who lives close to nature, for she trains him to think straight. LETTER FROM.

BRITISH TEARS AT RODEO _ TEARS AT RODEO EXAMPLE OF HYPOCRISY By Milton Bronner NEA Service Writer London; July. 11.—The British pub- lic and press have just given an- other very amusing example of the conduct which ‘leads foreigners to ac- cuse them of smug ‘hypocrisy. C. B. Cochran, an Englishman with an American’s hustle, and flair for a big show, conceived the idea of bringing to the British Empire Exhibition a yfique spectacle in the shape of a “Rodeo,” in which some of the best cowboys of the United States and Canada should give zam- ples of their skill. Among the things on the, program were lassoing “ateers ‘and. wrestling | of counterpart of our state militia with steers. At once some of the! forces which they call their “Terri- public sobbed and:some of-the re-| torial Army.” porters in their articles sobbed about}: Just as in-time of war, the milithy the cruelty to the steers. With the! force: our states are incorporated dependent enough as it i think Mr. Hamilton's stand in not giving Leslie much money on here all Ae ge at iat tight was perfectly correct, the time I thought he wad. If Leslie had money of her own now, or a business that was bringing her in money, she wouldn't be as sweet and docile as she is. I’m all curiosity to know just why Paula Perier wants to see you. ye Atherton informed me the other that my curiosity was the one thi that was always getting me inte trouble. It was when I took her te task for going out to dinner with a strange man, and by! the way that she made this remark she gave me to understand that it was none of my business who she went with. She may be right, at that. It is match of four kilometers, the. prizes being a teapot, a medal, a chicken and a live rabbit.
