Government
The government ot Panama is that
of ft seml-soveriegn and dependant
state. The terms of the Hay-Varilla
Tread y making; It such. By this
tread y the United States guarantee
and agrees to maintain the Govern
ment of that Country. Life, personal
liberty and property rlahts are as
safe as In the United States. The
same Military force protects both.
Climate
No country has been so grossly
misrepresented as to climate condi
tions as Panama. As a matter of fact
the climate has become one ot the
greatest factors in attracting settlers
in preference to other tropical sec
tions. Panama's temperature may
be dlscribed as warm during the day
and cool at night. The country is a
long narrow strip of land with great
seas of cool water washing its shores
which with its location as to air ana
water currents gives it a wonderful
equitable climate. The average
. temperature 1 is eighty-five degrees
and there is very little variation.
There is an abundance of rainfall.
The seasons are fixed and invariable
variation in temperature and rain
fall are entirely negligible month for
month, and year for year. There are
no off years, nor crop failure from
drought, rain or frost. The weather
holds no hazard; It performs like
clockwork, and every day ot the
year is a growing day.
Health Conditions
Panama has always been as a
whole a healthful country, but in
former years the Cities of .Panama
and Colon were occasionally subject
to epidemics of diseases. This was not
due to inherent unhealthfulness of
the country, but was the result of in
adequate sanitation and lax quar
antine which allowed those towns to
become the catch-basin of disease
born by the great tide of travel that
flowed across the Isthmus. Slnot
sanitation Panama has been abso
- lutely free of theae diseases for the
past ten years, and it will be impos
sible (or It to ever gain a foothold
there. The death rate is extremely

low, only about five to the thous
and among Americans. The Interior
country away from the Cities has al
ways been free from these diseases,
and the United States government
reports will unquestionably prove
that Panama is the most healthful
country in the world today.
Transportation and
Market
Panama is the transportation cross
road of the World. Location counts
for everything, la this regard Pan
ama stands pre-eminent. Panama is
the center of things. The cheapest
transportation in the World (water
transportation) will carry her pro
ducts to the markets of the World
at the very minimum of cost. The
ships ot all nations pans through her
gates. The freight rates are lest,
from Panama to New York than
they are from Pittsburg,. Pa., to New
York. The lands of the El Encanto
tract are ideally situated from a
transportation standpoint; every
part of them Is near the seaboard.
The streams are available for to
transport products down to the sea,
where it Is only three hours to Colon.
Buyers of land In El Encanto are not
restricted, the transportation center
is at their door. The World is their
market.
Cattle and Hogs
Too much cannot be said in
favor of Panama as a cattle
and hog country-. Both thrivfj'
and disease is almost unknown.
With no hard winters to con
tend with, they fatten twelve
months in the yenr; and do not
lose track of the fact that, witli
from two to four hundred ships
a month passing through the
canal, it will be hard to supply
the demand. That makes this
rich land more desirable to tho
investor. Get some of it.

CHICAGO, Sept. 23. Wheat prices suf
fered a sharp break today, largely as a
rtaull of tn purchase of Canadian wheat
to be Imported Into the United States.
The market closed unsettled, 1V0 to !.
lbc nut lower, with December at IMC anil
May at MSc. Corn lost Wlta to lc, oaia

visions at a rise of 2Vj3ac
Decplte the fact that tne actual amount
of Canadian wheat bought for Import
was only 60,Oj0 bushels, Uie bearish eifect
on prices proved far reaching and quick.
The market, which prevlouTy had been
on the advance owing to fear that con
tract stock would prove too meager to
(111 September deliveries, wn now plunged
down grade. Subsequent rallies failed to
overcome the greater part of the decline.
A contributing reason for sentiment
turning against the bulls was the an
nouncement that a large elevator com
pany here was proceeuing to clean bMiujo
bushels of No. 1 velvet chaff before
teeptembrr options expired. In such a
case any question would be avoided as
to whether or not the delivery would be
valid, regardless of how the Board of
Trade director might rule a to velvet
chaif which had not been cleaned.
Country ofieiinga of spring wheat In
the northwest Incvreased materially, not
withstanding that early In the day re
ports were current that consignment no
tices at Minneapolis ahoaed a tailing off.
It wa aaid that one of the principal

history of the line and that greally en
larged receipt were expected at Minne

Improvements
On the east lies a prosperous
French Colony where improved
land ia valued at $300 per aero.
On the north and east the seventy-
five hundred acre plantation of
Drake tt Watklns Company of Han
Francisco, and scattered about
upon the tract are the holdings of
some five hundred Callfornlans.
A number of the purchasers are
already Improving their land,
while a great many more will go
there this fall and winter to begin
work of development.
Timber
A part of this tract Is covered
with a fine foret of cabinet
woods. Immense trees of Spanish
cedar, Panamlan mahogany, nls-
poro caoba, etc., await the ae
of the woodman, while lignum
vltea. rubbtr. grayacan. corrlllo
doro. and a number of dye woods
are growing over the tract. Mr.
8. P. Verner of the Isthmus and
Canal Commission estimates the
value of the various trees in Pan
ama at 1600,000,000.
What People Think
of Panama
President Wilson said:
Panama is now on the min
street, it will become densely
populated, a tliriftly and con
tented people will go there and
build up tho country.
Hon. John F. Wallace, Chair
man of Canal Commission,
said:
The boumlries of Panama
embrace, n luxuriant and fer
tile country, which is capable
of sustaining a dense, popula
tion. The climate is salubri
ous, heretofore tho only places
scourged bv malignant dis
eases, have been the cities of
Panama and Colon, due to uu
sanitary conditions and. the
fact that they havo been the
erntewavs throuirh which the
tido of travel has-ebbed and
flowed. The temperature of
P a n a m a , is approximately
eighty degrees during the day;
the nights are cool and refresh
ing. The treaty between the U. S.
and Panama provides for a
protectory which gives the
and the big end of th offering wa
uought thai way. One packer who did
not buy any hens until toward th close
succeeded in weakening value a little
on the late round, and the result wa
that some of Uie Vats salss were little
oeiier man sieauy wun rwinuir.

SHEEP Supplies moderated a good bit
today, but st that presented a generous
ai'pearanco for a Thursday. Estimates
called for seventy-seven car, or 21.0
head, and as yesterday' official count
overran the estimate nearly S.OiA head,
the total for the four days Is 147,003 head.
This Is a gain of l," head over a week
ago, 1 more than 8,000 larger than two
weeks ago and 8,000 heavier than for tha
same days last year. Four days' supplies
are larger than for any similar ierlod
for nearly twn year and much larger
than any of the other markets.
Th 88 26 limit held good on fat lamb
again today, and bulk of the offerlml.
sgaln took that figure, which ha brought
nearly all the dealrabl killer all week.
Movement started In good season and a
pretty good clearance of everything In
the barn wa made by o'clock. There
ha been no quotable t..angs In killing
larrra prices at any time this week.
Trade In feeding stock thl morning wa
on a fully steady basis, and In spots
looked a little stronger. Bulk of the good
to choice feeder are selling at 88.00 and
up, a good many going around 88 108 16,
and after being missing for a dav the
Si;0 top was restored. Heavy supplies
of feeder all thl week have not dulled
th appetite of buyer In th least and
price have shown very little change, al
though there was a slightly weaker ten
denoy right at the start of the week.
IVedlng and breeding ewes, Which have
been cleaned up very readily all week
were In limited supply today.
Offerings of fat ewes dropped to al
most nothing today, th few that were
her selling at fully steady prices. Best
on sale continue to bring 66.60.

PANAMA CAN PRODUCE AS MUCH
SUGAR PKR ACRE AS THE
HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.
U. S. not only power of inter
vening to repel invasions and
repress local disorders, but
guarantees the U. S. will as
sume the responsibility for in
ternal and foreign peace of thu
country.
It does not require a profes
tie mind to predict tho day.
when Panama will support
several million happy and con
tented people.
0, H. Forges-Lindsay, sayst
Thcje is no richer land in the
world than in Panama. The
mean temperature is about
eighty degrees, from which the
extreme fluctations do not de
part ten degrees in either di
rection. Hon. John Barrett, sayst
The climate is healthful and
even, invigorating; the land is
adapted to most profitable
farming. A beautiful country,
with n climate that should havt
no terrors for the healthy, and
even solaces for the weak. Tli"
land is nowadays within com
paratively easy reach of all.
Panama is on the eve of a de
velopment such as Porto Rico
is undergoing with American,
assistance.
