Nearly all of the desirable choruses In the world are printed in this notation and nearly all printed in both notations which is of great advantage in many respects All the oratorios of Handel Haydn Mendelssohn etc Gounods "Redemption" and Mors et Vita Mackenzies Rose of Sharon Sullivan's Golden Legend" Barnby's "Rebeka" and others beyond enumeration Over 100000 copies of Handels Messiah have been sold Bachs Passion Music and the masses of Beethoven Haydn Mozart Weber etc all the cantatas and smaller works of all the German and English composers In fact nearly all of the best vocal music In the world is printed in this notation in cheap and convenient form much of it at less than one-half the cost of the staff notation An Important historical fact is dawning upon the public mind The world is beginning to realize that as a means of educating the masses the staff system has never yet succeeded It has been in existence for several centuries and the masses are not and never have been musically educated The duty and purpose of the Sol-faist to develop the natural ability of every one to sing that is to use such powers' of song as they have and to develop them as much as they can be developed all for one main purpose the growth of the spiritual nature love truth sympathy justice The spiritual nature is the basis of song Singing is not merely the rendering of the compositions of the masters or other music writings it is the expression of thought and feeling in song you may express these in speech but song you must express them Those who do hot express them in rendering song fail and are not singers in the true sense of the word The Tonic-Sol-Fa system is not put forward as a distinctive system but as the most simple scientific thorough inexpensive (in time and money) and universal means now known to a great end By its use one nation has largely passed from silence to song and by it the people of all nations can become singers FARMING PRODUCTS ARE FIRST You kin bare

yesterday under the auspices of the University of California Professor Fowler said in an address that a review of exports and imports of the United States consisting of farm and manufac turing products showed that the trade balances that were so gratifying to the Nation were produced by the agricultural products exported not by the manufacturing products The farmer did not always receive the full measure of reward for his magnificent efforts but he was rapidly coming to a recognition that his industry must receive support of the Government in every department of its development he

The state department is acting in this matter at me instance of the department of agriculture and of commerce and labor with a view to the enforecement of the anti-adulteration act The American
