There are many reasons why every farmer in Michigan should include Beans in his program of plantage this year and one reason that stands out far and above all others. Every bushel that is raised will bring more than $3.00 in cash. Even though a total of 10,000- 000 bushels were produced in the state during the summer the market would absorb them at that price. It will be absolutely impossible for a grower to lose under such conditions. Behind this situation there is a reas- on. Until two years ago the United States was importing between 1,(»00,000 and 3,000,000 bushels of beans annually from Europe. Now the process has been reversed.

LEGALIZING VIOLENCE The petitions now being circulated by organized labor asking that the constitution of the state be amended so as to take from the courts the power to issue injunctions in labor disputes is one of the most arbitrary and revolutionary moves ever made in a democratic country in time of peace. The suspension of the writ of habeas corpus would be fraught with no more danger to the rights of citi- zens that the depriving of certain classes of our people of the right to seek this remedy to prevent the de- struction of their property and the ruin of their business. It is the most radical kind of class legislation be- cause it seeks to deliver up one class of our citizens, bound and helpless, to the tender mercies of another class. We might look upon this move with more or less complacency if the evil was to affect only the class at which it is aimed, but the evil effects from such legislation will touch every citi- zen of the state. We cannot isolate such a vicious principle. Sooner or later the whole people, who pay all the bills in the end, will taste- the bit- ter fruit, and it is het\er that they should realize this before putting their hands to a petition which is bound to handicap their commercial activities, work disaster to their in- dustries and open the. door to a whole flood of vicious legislation.

"Fine again!" cried I. "A long room with two fireplaces, and a double-faced bookcase coming out at right angles between them, with two settles below It, one for each fireplace! Bet­ter than I'd dreamed!"

"Salt yerself." said Hard. My front doorway had oDce been a

thing of beauty, with two little panel windows at the sides, and above all, on the outside, a heavy, hand-carved broken pediment, like the top of a Gov­ernor Wlnthrop highboy. Hard looked at It with admiration gleaming in his eyes. "I'd ruther restore this than all the rest o* the Job," he said, and his ugly, rum-soaked little face positively shone with enthusiasm.

"Go ahead," said I; "only I want the new steps of brick, widely spaced, with a lot of cement showing between. I'm going to terrace it here in front, too— a grass terrace for ten feet o u t "

"Thet's right, thet's right!" he ex­claimed. "Now I'll go order the lum­ber an* bring yer the estimate ter-morrer,"

"Seems to me the usual proceeding •would be the other way around I" I gasped.

"Well, yer want me ter do the Job. don't yer? Or don't yer?" he said brusquely.

"Of course, of course!" I amended hastily. "Go ahead!"

Hard climbed Into a broken-down wagon, and disappeared. "Don't you worry," said Bert "I'll see he treats yer right."

"It isn't that," I said sadly. "It 's that I've Just remembered I forgot to include any painters' bills in my own estimate."

Bert looked at me In a kind of speechless pity for o moment Then he said slowly: "Wal, I'll be swizzled! Wait till I tell maw! An' her always gtlckln' up fer a college educationr

As I creat­ed the ridge the field lay before me, the great lone pine standing sentinel at the farther side, and half of It was frail, young green, and half rich, shin-lug brown.

"She plows tough, sor," said Mike, as the panting horses paused for breath, "but she'll harrer down good. Be the seed pertaters come yit?"

"Bert has gone for them," said L. "Let me hold the plow once."

"It ain't so &zy as It looks," said Mike.

"I'll do It If 1 haven't a rib left" said I grimly.

• And I did I t My first full furrow looked like the track of a snake under the Influence of liquor, but 1 reversed the plow and came back fairly s traight I was beginning to get the hang of i t My next furrow was re­spectable, but not deep. On this re­turn trip the sweat was starting from my forehead, and the smell of the horses and of the warm, fresh-turned earth was strong in my nostrils. I didn't look at my pine. I was proud at what I had done, and my muscles gloried In the toll. Again 1 swung the plow around, and drove it across the field, feeling the reluctant grass roots fighting every muscle of my arms.

"There," said I, triumphantly, "you plow all the rest as deep as thatl"

"Begobs, ye'z all right!" cried Mike. I went back again down the slope

with all the joy of a small boy and descended upon the orchard. I had a couple of bulletins on pruning In my pocket, with pictures of old trees re­morselessly headed down, I took a fresh look at the pictures, reread some of the text where I bad marked It, and tackled the first tree, carefully re­peating to myself: "Remove only a third the first year, remove only a third the first year."

This, 1 decided, quite naturally did not refer to dead wood. By the time I bad the dead wood cut out of that first old tree, and all the water sprouts removed (as I recalled my grandfather used to call them), which didn't seem necessary for new bearing wood, the poor thing began to look naked. 0¾ one side an old water spout or sucker had achieved the dignity of a limb and shot far Into the air. I was up In the tree carefully heading this back and out when Bert came driving by with bis wagon heaped to overflowing.

"Hi!" he called, "yer tryln' to kill them trees entire!"

I got down and came out to the road. "You're a fine man and a true friend. Mr. Temple." said I. "but I'm going to be the doctor for this orchard. A chap's got to have some say for him­self, you know."

"Well, they ain't much good, any­how, them trees," said Bert cheer fully.

We now fell to unloading the wagon. We opened up the woodsheds and storehouse behind the kitchen, stowed, In the barrels of seed potatoes, the fer­tilizers, the various other seeds, the farm Implements, sprayers, and so on. The hotbed frames and sashes were put away for future use, as It was too late to need them now. The horse hoe Bert had not been able to bring on this trip. Next we got my books and furniture Into the house or shed, and, tired, hot and dirty, we drove on up the road for dinner. As we passed the mpper field, I saw that the plowing was nearly done. The brown furrow* had already lost their gloss, as my ; haads had already lost their whiteness.

» "Well, I'm a farmer now!" said I, surveying my sotl-caked boots and grimy clothes.

"Ter on the way. anyhow." said Ber t "But yer^ll have ter cultivate, tbet field hard, seeln's bow It oughter hev been plowed last falL"

That afternoon I went back to my orchard, got out my shiny and sharp new doubled-edged pruning saw. and sawed til] both arms ached.

As I worked, I thought bow this orchard must be trimmed and cleaned op first but how the fine planting weather was upon us, too, and I ought to be getting my garden seeds in, if I was to have any flowers. I thought, also, of all my manuscripts to be read. A nervous fit seised me, and I worked frantically.

That night I managed to keep awake till eleven, aad got soma work dona. ! also rose at a compromise boor of six In the morning, aad worked another hove, almost catching op with what shoald bare been my dally stint.

Aa aoou as the orchard was flu Is bed: ! stood amid the litter 1 had made ou the ground, and reflected. I had com­pleted the preliminary trimming of one row aud part of a second. There were still over two rowB and a half to do. And the worst trees were in those rows, at t ha t After they were trimmed, there was all the litter to clear o u t and the stubs to be painted, and cement work to be done.

"Good gracious!" thought 1, "if L do all t h a t when will I p lant when will I make my lawn?"

Have you ever watched a small boy picking berries? Hr never picks a bush clean, but rushes after this or that big cluster of fruit which strikes the eye. covering half an acre of ground while you. perhaps, are strip­ping a single clump of bushes. And be is usually amazed when your pall fills quicker than hits. Alas! I fear I was much like that small boy dur> lng my first season on the farm, or at any rate during the host month or two. There was little "efficiency" In my methods—but oh, much delight!

As I had planned to put my garden coldframes along the south wall of the kitchen, I decided to make my tem porary Beedbeds there. Mike assented to the plan as a good one, and I had him dump me a load of manure, while 1 brought earth from the ueareat point in the garden, spaded up the soil, mixed In the garden earth and dress­ing, and then worked and reworked it with a rake, and anally with my hands.

Ah, the Joy of working earth with your naked hands, making it ready for planting! The ladles I had seen In their gardens always wore gloves. Even my mother, I recalled, in her little garden, had always worn gloves. Surely, thought 1, they miss something —the cool, moist feel of the loam, the very sensations of the seeds them selves. At four o'clock I had my bed ready, and 1 got my seed packets, sorted them In a tin tobacco box, and began to sow the seeds. The direc­tions which I read with scrupulous care always said, "Press the earth down firmly with a board." 1 was working with a flat mason's trowel, so I got up and found a board. It wasn't half so easy to work with, but I was taking no chances! '

Mike and Joe were unhitching the horse from the barrow as I finished. The great brown slope of the vege­table garden, lying away from the house toward the ring of southern hills, was ready for planting. There was my farm, thence would come my prof-Its—If profits there should be. But Just at that moment the little strip of soaked seedbed behind me was more important It stood for the color box with which 1 was going to paint for the fragrant pigments out of which I should create about my dwelling a dream of gardens.

"After all," I thought, "a country place is but half realized without Its garden, even though It be primarily a farm, and the richness of country liv­ing is but half fulfilled unless we be­come painters with shrub and tree and Sower. I cannot draw, nor sing, nor play. Perhaps I cannot even write. But surely I can express myself here, about me, in color and landscape charm, and not be any the worse farm­er for tha t I have my work: I shall write; I shall be a farmer: I shall be a gardener—an artist In flowers; 1 shall make my bouse lovely within; I shall live a rich, full life. Surely I am a happy, a fortunate man!"

I put the watering pot back in the bhed, crossed the road to the old wooden pump by the barn on a sud den impulse, nnd pumped water on my hands and bead, for 1 was hot. Mike stood In the barn door and laughed.

"What are yez doin' that forT OP asked.

1 stood up and shook the wjrfer from my face and hair. "Just to be a kid. I guess," I laughed.

There are some things Mike couldn't understand. Perhaps 1 did not clearly understand myself, lu some dim way un old pump before a baru aud the bbock of water from Its spout on my head was fraught with happy memo­ries and with dreams.

The amethyst glow went off the hills that ring our valley, and a far blue peak faded Into the gathering dusk. A light shivered off my spirit, too. I felt suddenly cold, and the cheery face of Mrs. Temple was the face of a stran­ger. I felt unutterably lonely and de­pressed. My farm was dust and ashes. That evening I savagely turned down a manuscript by a rather well-known author, and went to bed with­out confessing what was the matter with me. The matter was, I had pumped up a ghost

GOLD IN EASTERN STATES

With 8llver and Other Metals Year's Production Is Around

$30,000,-000.

Not all of the gold of this country comes from Alaska and the Rocky Mountain states. A good-sized lump of it, more than 10,000 ounces, worth 1224,250, is dug out of the mountains here In the East, remarks the New York Sun.

Gold hunters dreamed for years of hidden wealth of yellow metal in the southern part of the Appalachian range. Some of them stopped dream­ing and went to work, missing an El­dorado but gaining enough profit to pay well for their daily labor. As a result 59 gold and placer mines and 24 deep gold mines have been devel­oped.

The most productive of these are In North Carolina, Georgia and Alabama. The last-named state has not done so well as in some previous years, but both the others have exceeded the pro­duction of 1914. The largest placer mine is in Rutherford county, North Carolina, and the most productive deep mine in Montgomery county, in the same state.

But the whole story of metal mining in the East is not told in the quest for gold. Besides this precious min­eral, sliver, copper, lead and tine have been produced In quantities sufficient to make a total last year of almost thirty million dollars. This la nearly three times the value of the preced­ing year's production, the increase In gold alone being more than fifty thou­sand dollars.

Before trying to pull threads In linen for hemstitching or crocheting a hand­kerchief edge, run & very damp piece of cloth along the line where the thread la to be pulled. You will be surprised to see how easily the thread wili pull.

After threading a needle, be nure to tie the knot In tho end of the thread tmtyped from the spool. The thread wUl then aew smoothly and without kinking.

PRESIDENT WOODROW WILSON

DEMOCRATS CHOOSE WILSON AND MARSHALL AS THEIR LEADERS

Ticket Named a Few Minutes Before Midnight on Thursday, Avoiding the Friday "Hoodoo"—Delegates Evince Intense

Enthusiasm as the Result Is Announced—Pres­ident at Once Notified..

St Louis,—y\w'>- v Wilson and Thomas Riley >! r i i i l were nominat­ed Just before midnight June 15. Both nominations were made by acclama­tion-

President Wilson's nomination came at 11:54 and thai >>f Vice-President Marshall at 11:58.

Fred B. Lynch <>f Minnesota noti­fied the White Bouse by telephone at the Instant of the Domination. A tele­phone wire that extended into the speaker's stand was connected direct with the White House with a mega­phone attached to the receiver.

In a lightning sprint Mr. Mar­shall made a record. Senator Kern was due for a nominating speech, Sensing the approaching midnight he threw his eulogy on the floor and sim­ply said: "I renomate Thomas Riley Marshall." Somebody seconded. Some­body moved to make It by acclamation. And It was done, the whole job of nominating a vice presidential candi­date taking up just 180 seconds.

Friday Superstition Averted. Thns the ancient superstition

against Friday nominations was avert­ed, although President Wilson had made it known that he regards Friday as his "lucky day."

Dramatic scenes attended the nam­ing of the ticket William Jennings Bryan in an Impassioned panygertc placed his O. K. upon the president and his administration.

The Nebraskan. who resigned from the cabinet was not a delegate to the convention, bat be was called to the platform by unanimous consent He landed Wilson to the skies for keeping the nation out of war. landed the Wil­ton Mexican policy and extolled the economic legislation from tariff to eur-rency a c t

Bryan at times spoke under the •train of emotion. It was the first convention in 20 years In which he has not been an active figure, but the ora­tion and the outbursts that punctuated his remarks Indicated that he is still • powerful force behrnd the scenes of the party he once dominated.

Wescott Names Wilson. The Nebraakan through with his

speech, John W. Wescott of New Jer* sjt* placed Mr. Wilson in nomination. 4 » ||s> thne grew short Wescott cut-

The only objection came from Rob­ert E. Burks of Chicago, the only anti-Wilson delegate In the convention. He shouted "No."

Senator James declared President Wilson nominated at 11:52 p. in.

Kevn Names Marshall. Senator John W. Kern of Indiana

then was i^cognised. He moved that the nomination of Vice President Mar­shall be made by acclamation. No nominating speech was made.

Vice President Marshall was de­clared nominated four minutes after the nomination of President Wilson.

Numerous seconding speeches which had been prepared were not made.

Lewis1 Speech His Shortest Senator James Hamilton Lewis of

Illinois was Invited to the platform to make an addess at 12:12 a. m. MI do not like to Impose upon your time," said Senator Lewis. "I beg you will excuse me and I express my sincere thanks."

It was the shortest speech of his career.

Senator Hughes reported to the con­vention that the resolution committee had failed. to complete its work on the platform. The convention then adjourned at 12:32 a. m. until eleven o'clock Friday morning.

Forty-six minutes of sheer enthu­siasm and emotion followed the nam­ing of President Wilson. The minute Mr. Westcott had yielded to the ad­jurations of his audience and had spo­ken the name "Woodrow V'Uson," the galleries and the delegates were on their feet

An immense oil painting of the presi­dent was dropped from the gallery hack of the speakers' stand. It ex­cited the gathering almost to the point of frenzy. Georgia bore down the aisle a banner—"Wilson: Dixie's gift to the nation."

The band blared and thumped out "America" and "Dixie" while the great pit, R crater of eruptive humanity, let out Its collective lungs and throats to capacity.

Bryan Lauds Wilson. Bryan in bis laudation of Wilson

and his policies dwelt on the possibili­ties of America as negotiator of peace in Europe.

"1 stand with the Democrats of the nation to give Woodrow Wilson a chance to be that man." shouted Bryan, In conclusion, and the hall echoed with cheering.

Details of the Night Session. St Louis,—While the convention

was assembling for the night session to nominate President Wilson it lie-came known th* Nebraska delegation planned to withdraw the vice presi­dency cnndldacy of Governor XI.re-bend.

stopped at the door. Senator James learned of the Nebraskan's plight and rescued hluu. Then the Nebraakan got his uuual uproarious reception.

Chairman James rapped the conven­tion to order.

Rev. W. J. Hardesty, chaplain of the Missouri senate, offered prayer.

Senator Thompson then moved a suspension of the rules to permit Mr. Bryan to speak. When the motion was put there were some "Noes," but the chairman ruled two-thirds had voted in favor.

Senator James introduced Mr. Bryan as "one of the leading citizens of the world and America's greatest Democrat."

In spite of the distracting Influence of the mob at the doors and the luuglis that rose occasionally when a bedrag­gled leader finally forced his way into the convention hall Mr. Bryan held his audience.

Applause was frequent and thunder­ous. He spoke for forty-five rnfmite*, finishing at 10:07.

Glynn Is the Keynoter. In a hall gay with flags and bunting

and with pictures of party leaders, past and present, looking down upon them from medallions around the bal­cony, the delegates to the Democratic national -convention assembled on scheduled time Wednesday. The pro­ceedings were formally started when William F. McOombs, chairman of the national committee, ascended the plat­form and rapped for order. He incited the first burst of enthusiasm of the convention when, in a short address In­troducing the temporary chairman, he predicted victory for the party in the fall.

The keynote speech was delivered by former Gov. Martin H. Glynn of New York, the temporary chairman. He was frequently Interrupted by ap­plause when some point in his speech stirred the enthusiasm of the dele­gates, nis eulogy of President Wilson started the biggest demonstration of the day. Following Governor Glynn's speech, committees on credentials, per­manent organization, rules, and resolu­tions were announced, and that day's work was done.

James Permanent Chairman. The delegates were a little slow In

assembling for Thursday's session, and It was almost noon when Temporary Chairman Glynn called the convention to order. Permanent Chairman Ollie James was escorted to the chair and introduced. He immediately launched into his address. He lauded the presi­dent and defended his policies, partic­ularly in regard to the controversy with Germany over the submarine warfare and our relations with Mexico. An enthusiastic demonstra­tion greeted his praise of President Wilson, which lasted more than twenty minutes. At the close of Chairman James' speech the convention took a recess until nine o'clock in the eve­ning.

Before the nominating speeches be­gan at the evening session the Demo­crats indulged In a love feast In which the advent of harmony In their ranks was celebrated.

Wilson Praised by Bryan. Mr. Bryan was cheered enthusi­

astically as he entered the press sec-

ENTIRE MILITIA ORDERED OUT

FIRST CHIEF OF MEXICO SENT AN ULTIMATUM TO PRESI­

DENT WILSON.

MARKET QUOTATIONS

GIVENSEVEN DAYS TO VACATE

Telephone and Telegraph Wirca On the Mexican Side of Bor­

der Cut.

El Paso, Tex.—Confidential advices were received at El Paso that First Chief Carranza sent an ultimatum to President Wilson advising him that if American troops were not removed from Mexico within seven days a state of war would be considered as exist­ing between United States and Mexi­co and that the troops of the de facto government at the end of seven days would treat all armed Americans in Mexico as invaders.

Nogales, Ariz. -All telephone and telegraph wires leading from the American to the Mexican side of the border have been cut in Sonora. Americans are being brought to the border in automobiles from Nacozari, where an anti-American demonstra­tion occurred. Carranza authorities previously had refused a train for the refugees.

Washington—President Wilson Is­sued a call to National Guard organi­zations of every state in the union for service on the Mexican border.

Although the purpose of the action, as set forth in ihe formal call is for

»

the protection of the American fron­tier from invasion, the opinion prevail­ing throughout Washington is that it marks the first step of Intervention in Mexico. For more than three years President Wilson has exhausted every other expedient in an effort to avoid such a step.

Washington is the scene of intense excitement.

The action is understood to have been precipitated by a dispatch from General Funston predicting trouble all along the Rio Grande in an effort on the part of the Mexicans to force the Americans to withdraw from Mex­ican soil.

A number of lengthy reports were received at the department, but Sec­retary Baker refused to make their contents public.

Although every state In the union and the District of Columbia Is affect­ed by the call, not all of the organi­zation of each state is called out None of the coast artillery units of the National Guard Is affected.

According to the last reports of the division of militia affairs of the war department, the "paper" strength of the entire National Guard, exclusive of coast artillery, was something over 117,000 enlisted men.

The total number of enlisted men called for in today's summons, ex­clusive of signal corps and medical corps, is 93,518. divided as follows: Infantry, 76,115; cavalry, 6,435; field artillery 9,»28, and engineers, 1,040.

PINCKNEY DISPATCH

GAS TRACTOR STUDY Difficulty In Operation Is Prin­

cipal Objection Given.

Decidedly Unwise for Owner to Un­dertake to (lain Necessary Knowl­

edge by txperimonting With Hla Own Machine.

0>repajnad by the United St&tea D«p*rt-meat si Aarkuiture.)

The authors of Farmers' Bulletin *An ttconomie Study of the Farm >r in the Corn Belt,1' point out

In reports from nearly 200 own-of tractors In Illinois difficulty in

Ion was mentioned as the prln-dlsadvantage of the tractor. In

sussing this fact, especially In its ig on the reliability of the trao-

r, the writers say: *!» view of the fact that difficulty

tn operation Is mentioned by tractor Vwhtrt as the principal disadvantage Xft the tractor. It seems pertinent to

that while any man of ordinary itj can operate and care for a gas

. )t very satisfactorily after a little Jltudy and experience, it is decidedly unwise for him to undertake to gain the necessary experience by experl-tgfontlng with his own machine. In most cases he can obtain the experi­ence more cheaply elsewhere. Ex­perience In running stationary engines or automobiles, while of some value, IS not enough; the mere starting of the motor, changing of gears, and ^topping are simple matters, and any farmer can quickly learn to do these, but the Important thing is the ability to detect troubla the minute is be­gins to develop, and to be able to remedy it promptly instead of allow­ing It to run along until an expensive delay results.

MA great many owners report that U is oxtremely difficult to get hired help capable of operating a tractor satisfactorily. Where a tractor Is to be operated by hired help It is very important for the owner to understand the proper care of the outfit In order to see that it Is not abused.

"The fact that a tractor does de­mand a certain amount of knowledge on the part of the operator can scarce­ly be considered a disadvantage, Inas­much as the necessary training can be obtained easily and at a very nominal expense. It is to be regretted that so many men will Ignore tfie opportun­ities for equipping themselves for the nroper operation of a tractor before Attempting to run one.

"That it pays to spend a few days in gaining experience under a com­petent instructor is attested by a great many tractor users. That It is un­wise to attempt to run a tractor with-Sut such preparation has also been

emoastrated many times. One farm* er writes:

" 'I had no experience with the trac­tor when I started and would have made five hundred dollars during the season, if I had had the same experi­ence when I started In the spring as I had in the fall when I quit.'

"Many others could truthfully make similar statements.

"With the increasing use of tractors, as well as of automobiles and station­ary engines, farmers are rapidly be­coming familiar with the care and op­eration of gas engines. At the same time tractors are being Improved and simplified, so that difficulties in opera­tion are growing less each year. One .generation of well-trained and compe­tent operators will disseminate in­formation so that future generations will' acquire knowledge on the subject as unconsciously, yet as thoroughly, as the average son acquires his knowl­edge of horses.

T h e mistake should not be made of aartiTntng that any boy can operate a tractor in an efficient manner; it is a Job which only a proficient operator can handle properly.

T h e reliability of a tractor depends

very largely upon the ability of the operator. Of about 200 tractor owners In Illinois, 57 per cent report that their outfits were not out of commission a single day when needed during the past season. Of the remaining 43 per cent, the average number of days their tractors were out of commission when needed was seven. This average, how ever, does not Include the experience of seven men who stated their ma­chines were out of commission nearly all the time and one who said half the time.

"The reports of tractor owners Indi­cate that with a careful and proficient operator a gas tractor is a very de­pendable source of power j occasional slight delays probably will be encount­ered, but serious ones will be excep­tional. With a careless or incompetent operator, serious delays are apt to be frequent.

"About 90 per cent of tractors in Illi­nois are operated by the owner or some member of his family. The re­ports of these men show that an aver­age of about three-fourths of an hour Is lost per day on account of trouble with the tractor itself.

PROHIBITION FOR KEEPS. Below are given some of the rea

sons why Russia will never repeal ita prohibitory laws, based on statements made by Ernest Gordon, who has re­cently visited the country:

In the insanity hospital in connec­tion with the northern Russian army there has been only one case of alco­holic insanity In a year. Such hos­pitals during the Russo-Japanese war were filled with alcoholic insane.

Ih one town money grew so plenti­ful that the villagers clubbed togeher and bought a movie. Charging a small admission fee they grew so embar­rassed with the riches that they pur­chased a brand new fire engine, "the village pride."

The Plrogoff society, the leading medical association of Russia, has heartily Indorsed prohibition, declar­ing that "a whole mass of facts allow us to believe that prohibition has de­creased sickness (especially venereal and mental), lessened fires, suicides, crime, accidents and increased mate­rial and Industrial prosperity."

There Is a general feeling through­out Russia that it Is "owing to the temperance movement," that the bad effects of the war are not felt.

One peasant writes of the results of prohibition as "wonderfully good. Joy everywhere! Quite habitual drunk­ards are well dressed now and have repaired their houses."

8ETTINQ T H E PACE. Referring to the popular belief that

the metropolitan centers are citadels of corruption upon which no Impres­sion can be made, the Union Signal says that this "big city bugaboo" is now losing its terrors. It points to New York's board of health, to Chi­cago's Sunday closing, to Philadel­phia's stand against the use of alco­holic drinks by its city employees, and remarks that the public will look ex­pectantly to Boston, St. Louis and Baltimore for some spectacular move­ment which will excel the reforms of the other three. "Meanwhile," it says, "In the great cities of the Pacific coast, Seattle and Portland, and in the municipalities of the middle West, Denver and Des Moines, prohibition is not only demonstrating Its success as a panacea for civic Ills, but has reached a stage of popularity where the men who wrote and orated against it a few months ago, are now eloquent­ly Insisting that from time immemo­rial they have been its ardent and self-sacrificing advocates."

EXPECT BETTER TIMES. 'There have been many dire predic­

tions regarding the disaster that is to follow the departure of the saloon in wet territory in this state, but gener­ally speaking no delusions are held along this line by the more prominent business men of Idaho," says the Boise News. "While they look for a tempo­rary depression prior to the readjust­ment, they expect afterwards impetus in business conditions and even better times than before the saloon became extinct. The fact that much of Idaho has been dry for years and business conditions in the dfy territory have even been better in some Instances than in the wet territory, leads many business men to believe that the sa­loon is not so paramount a factor and that with a readjustment the lost rev­enue from It will not be missed.*

Steamed Custard le One of the Best —Tangerine Souffle May Be New—

Excellent Recipe for Lemon Pudding.

Steamed Custard.—Put three-quar­ters of a pint of milk into a atewpan with two ounceu of loaf sugar and a small piece or pinch of cinnamon. Beat the yolks of two eggs thoroughly and whisk the whites to a stiff froth, finally adding them to the yolks. As soon as the milk reaches the boiling point pour it by degrees onto the eggs, btlrring it gently all the time and ltave the custard to cool. Butter a plain mold and strain the custard into it. Cover it uocuxely by tying a piece of buttered paper on the top and Bteam very gently for 35 minutes. Stand aside to get cold. Serve the custard turned out of the mold and surrounded by stewed fruit.

Tangerine Souffle.—Separate the white from the yolks of six perfectly fresh eggs Put the yolks into a ba­sin with four tablespoonfuls of pow­dered sugar, the grated rind of two tangerine oranges and a half portion of grated lemon rind. Beat the ingre­dients with a wooden spoon for ten minutes. Stir in one tablespoonful of pastry flour, and when this Is thor­oughly blended with the egg mixture add one teaspoonful of orange flavor­ing. Add a pinch of salt to the whites of the eggs and whisk them to a very stiff froth. Mix them lightly and thoroughly with the prepared yolks and pour the mixture at once into a buttered scuffle mold. Smooth the top over with a knife into the shape of a dome and bake the souffle at once in a quick oven for from ten to twelve minutes. Just before serving sprinkle some sifted powdered sugar over the top.

Lemon Pudding.—Put two ounces of butter into a saucepan and when It is melted stir in by degrees two table-spoonfuls of flour and one and a half tablespoonfuls of corn flour. As soon as the ingredients form a perfectly smooth paste, add gradually, stirring quickly all the time, one pint of milk and continue to stir until the mixture has boiled and thickened. Remove the pan from the stove and add three ta­blespoonfuls of sugar, the grated rind of a large lemon and one tablespoonful of brandy or vanilla. Beat in the yolks of two eggB which have been thorough­ly whisked with a fork. Add a pinch of salt to the whites of the eggs and beat them to a stiff froth. Allow the pudding to cool and stir in the Btrained juice of a lemon, a little at a time, and the whites of the eggs. Line a pudding dish with puff paste, pour In the liquid mixture and bake at once in s fairly quick oven until the top is lightly or evenly browned. The heat must not be fierce nor must the pudding be allowed to remain in the oven more than from 20 to 30 minutes, or It will curdle and be spoiled. A jug of thick cream should be passed with i t

Fricasseed Veal. Try this sometime for a cheap dish:

Three pounds veal cut in small pieces. Boil till tender. Fry two or three slices salt pork till fat is all out. and put In veal and broth. Add butter, salt and pepper. Let it boil, then take out meat and thicken gravy. Pour over the meat

A FINANCIAL BENEFIT. West Virginia saved 167,500 last

Christmas time through a decrease in murders. Mr. 81m Irion, secretary of the Charleston Business Men's asso­ciation, cites statistics showing that for S3 years there has been an aver-age of 17 murders In the state during the Christmas holidays, all of them traceable either directly or indirectly to whisky and its evil influences. Tills Christmas there were only two mur­ders as a result of drinking. The average murder trial in West Virginia, it is stated, costs $4,500. Seventeen murder trials therefore cost the state $76,600. Two coat about $9,000, aaav-tog of approximately $67,600.

Hippopotami Can Run. In spite of Its clumsy build, the hip­

popotamus can trot fast. That ia why he was given the name of river-horse. The hippo's feet are kept far apart by the wide body and make paths with a ridge down the middle, so as to be rec­ognizable at once. They swim well, but go at their greatest speed when they can gallop along the bottom In Hhallow water. They can stay under water a long time, and when they come to the surface they send little jets of spray from their nostrils. The cow is devoted to the calf. The young one stands on her back as the mother swims.

How much is a saloon license worth? This cjutttstkm has agKUa-ted a good many city council* in Michi &un aa they faced the annual grant­ing of licenses. It brings two answers. The license is worth a given Jee to the city which grants it, but it also iss worth many limes that ft.-o In profit** to the liquor dealers.

"A saloon license in Jackson lb worth at least $1U,000 to the man who holds it" declared an official oi that city to a representative of The Xew Republic. "We used to have over ninety saloons in Ja-ckson and now with thirty.two, the profits 01 each retailer uie very large."

Pinconojng, a little town near Bay City, na« ended a long hard fight over the issue by adding |600 as a village license to that required by the state, making the total $1,000. In Standlsh the one thousand figure aUo prevails.

Good evidence that the liquor dealer has not yet seen the light, is furnished by much talk and little action on the subject of reducing the number of saloons in various Michi­gan cities. Bay City succeeded MI counting out six licenses this year but still has 108 bars in a city of 45 -000 population. Saginaw as well at Bay City furnished much talk of re. ducing the number, but Saginaw

% granted its old number of 101 licenses. Manistee managed to count out one

saloon, leaving twenty-eight-—which must have been quite an effort foi Manistee since it decided to have nothing to do with local option and is advertising its saloons as a munici­pal attraction to motor touriatn.

In Detroi' absolute secrecy \va± maintained by the liquor committee of the common council. It was ex­pected that aomething like a bomb shell would drop and scores of K censeu would be refused which here tofore have been granted. About 50 fewer licenses were granted leaving the total 1313.

Most of these local fights of saloon licenses are in fact conflicts among brewers rather than retailers. The city council has a hard tune regula­ting a retail saloon when the influ encffi back of the retailer are brewing companies competing for the sale of their product. While the people are not interested in who makes the stuft, 'hey do have a practical interest in law enforcement and the retailer is the man to whom they must look.

With "blind pigs" flourishing in 11 censed cities and with saloon-keepers constantly violating many laws and with city councils afraid to refuse li censes when they ought to, the COLCM-tions in many Michigan cities" "are all tending to increase and solidify d y sentiment.
