You are overpowered by the grandeur and magnificence of the scene?that is the spirit of the harvest. You can hear the voice of nature calling you back to the soil? that is opportunity knocking at your door. It Is a good chance to spend a quiet hour in contact with the purity and perfection of nature and to sweeten your life with its fragrance, elevate your ideals with its beauty and expand your imagination with its power. These products as food are fit for the gods, and as an article of com merce they ought to bring tip-top prices on any market In the world. The products of the soil are teachers and preachers as well. Their beauty gives human life Its first entertainment, their perfection stirs the genius in artists; their purity furnishes models for growth of character and their marvelous achievements excite our curiosity and we inquire into the wonderful process of nature. Before leaving the parlor of agriculture where nature is parading in her most graceful attire and science is climbing the giddy heights of perfection, let us pause and take a retrcc, spective view. How many of you know that after these wonderful products are raised, they can seldom be marketed at a profit? Take the blushing Elberta, for example?they were fed to the hogs by the carload last year. The onion?the nation's favorite vegetable?every year rots by the aere in the Southwest for want of a market and as a result hundreds of farmers have lost their homes. Cotton?nature's capitalist?often goes begging on the market at less than cost of production. It is great to wander through the exhibits while the band is playing "Dixie" and boast of the marvelous fertility of the soil and pride ourselves on our ability to master science, but *A J ? - 1 ?.?11 A. ?

That question we will leave for diplomats to discuss, but peace within nations is no less important than peace between nations and It is heavily laden with prosperity for every citizen within our commonwealth. Many leading politicians and ofttimes political platforms have declared war upon business and no cabinet crisis ever resulted. Many men have stood in high places and hurled "gas bombs" at industry; thrust bayonets into businoaa antArnrlflPa ond hnmharded ag riculture with Indifference. Party leaders have many times broken diplomatic relations with industry; sent political aviators spying through the affairs of business, and political submarines have sent torpedoes crushing into the destiny of commerce. During the past quarter of a century we have fought many a duel with progress, permitted many politicians to carry on a guerrilla warfare against civilization and point a pistol at the heart of honest enterprise. , No man should be permitted to cry out for universal peace until his record has been searched for explosives, for no vessel armed or laden with munitions of war should be given a clearance to sail for the port of Universal Peace. Let us by all means have peace, but peace, like charity, ^ should begin at home. GRASPING AT THE SHADOW i No man?especially if he is married?would deny woman any right she demands. Take the earth i and give us peace, but why does woman long for the ballot? When all is said and done, is not the selection of the butcher more im yunaiu 10 liie uuuie iuau uic cictuuu of a mayor; is not the employment of the dairyman a far more important event in the life of the children than the appointment of a postmaster; is not the selection of books for the family library more important than voting bonds for jail and court house? Why dofs woman lay aside the important things in life? Why leave the substance and grasp at the shadow? Be it said to the credit of womanhood that it is not, as a rule, the woman who rocks the cradle that wants to cast the ballot; it is not the mother who teaches her children to say "Now I lay me down to sleep" that harangues the populace; it is not the daughter who hopes to reign as lueen over a happy home that longs for the uniform of the suffragette. It Is, as a rule, the woman who despises ier boma, neglects her children and scorns motherhood that leads para?> md smashes wiudawp. on ana aamire tr manship and ger But the greater in the wearing, ii bodily satisfactic combines all of the manufacture: comfort on the days.
