COMMERCIAL CLUBS
CAN BE MADE IMPORTANT FAC
TORS IN TOWN BUILDING.
BEST FIELD FOR THEIR WORK
Their Efforts Should Be Put Forth to
Keep the Dollars in the Home
Town Protecting Busi
ness Interests.
During the past few years there has
been more than ordinary activity in
the organization of so-called commer
cial clubs, business men's leagues and
similar associations in the agricultural
sections of the country. Some had
musnrooni growth, and like some flow
ers, bloomed and blossomed, withered
and decayed in an hour. Others strug
gled along indifferently and succeeded
in spending much of the people's
money without assisting the town to
greatness, while a very few succeeded
in doing things that were of benefit
to the community.
There is little use in trying to make
a suit of clothes for a man out of a
pattern of cloth that has only suffi
cient goods for a child's suit. There
is little use in trying to build up a
great town in a locality where there is
not the material to sustain it, and
where there are only resources for the
supncil of a hamlet. Towns of im
portance exist only where there are
certain natural advantages, resources
that can be utilized in manufacturing,
territory sufficiently large to command
extensive trade, or some other favor
able condition. In the west manufac
turing must by the economy of things
be confined to such lines as can be
advantageously produced. In manufac
turing there are many factors. There
must be considered the cost of fuel,
the raw material, the labor and highly
important are the transportation facil
ities. One of the noticeable things about
commercial chilis is the optimistic
tendencies of their members. Business
men of a strictly agricultural town will
form ian association. 'Perhaps the
leaders are interested in the real es
tate business. They want the town to
boom. Some of them may have a few
acies of land woithless unless for a
"lactory" site. Meetings are held,
plans are made for the bringing in of
some manufacturing plant that per
haps may give employment to half a
dozen or a dozen hands. Correspond
ence is started with a view of getting
some outsider interested. The right
man, apparently, makes his appear
ance, lie wants a bonus of a few
thousand dollars. His proposition is
seriously considered. The subscription
paper is passed around, the amount
secured, and the real estate man sells
his "factory" site at a good price. The
factory is started. It runs about a
year and there is a vacant factory
building for rent, or for sale. How
many towns in the southwest have had
this experience?
Even had the enterprise been a suc
cess, it remains that there is a field
more productive of good for the town
that the "club" overlooked. Say that a
factory be started in a small town. It
may give employment to a dozen men.
Tiie pay roll amounts to $30 a day. The
output of the concern may reach a
total of from $2f,000 to $35,000 a year.
"Every little helps," and all other
things in harmony this adds to the
importance of the place. But let us
do a iittle "estimating." Suppose that
there is about the town a territory of
150 square miles. Suppose that each
square mile repiesents four families
farmers' families. This would make
GOO families who should do their trad
ing in the town. The reports of the
bureau of statistics of the United
States department of labor and com
merce, assures us that the average ex
penditure of the farmer each year for
all the supplies he requires in the way
of agricultural machinery, carriages,
wagons, clothing, and food, is $627.
Careful estimates of the amount of the
farmers trade that goes to the mail
order house and is in other ways di
verted from his home town, shows that
it is more than 25 per cent, of all he
spends. Thus we find that from the
territory of the town there is annually
diverted in trade the nice sum of more
than $79,000. This amount goes from
the town, ceases to be a factor in its
upbuilding. It means that eveiv day
the town loses about $132 in trdde.
Now would It not be much better if
the commercial club took up the mat
ter of devising means of protecting the
business interests of the enterprises in
the mercantile lines already estab
lished, than to bring in a new enter
prise of uncertain success? Is not the
trade of the farmers and the people of
the town equally as beneficial as the
wages paid to the few men that the
factorj- might employ? Does not $79,
000 in trade more than equal the 'out
put and the general accruing to the
wealth of the town by the factory?
Ii is evident that there is a wide
field for commercial club effort in the
keeping in the town the dollars that
are earned and devising means of pro
tecting trade.
His Dire Threat.
There was determination stamped
on his brow.
"Refused, eh!" he hissed, snapping
his words like the explosions of a
motor-cycle. "Then I shall turn on the
gas."
The beautiful girl swooned. When
she recovered she found him sitting in
an easy chair reading the sporting
'news.
"Ah. you didn't turn on the gas after
all, did you?" she asked in trembling
tones.
"Yes I did," he replied coldly.
"You you turned on the gas, Har
old?" "Of course I did. How could I light
it if I didn't turn it on?"
And then she asked his forgiveness
and accepted him on the spot.
A Canine Secret.
'"You can always tell the people who
are unhappy from the look of their
faces," said the tired woman, "bat if
you look out of the window of a morn
ing you never can tell which dog it i
that has cried all night and kept you
UNITY OF INTERESTS.
Relationship of Residents of Rural
Communities to the Home Town.
"Live and let live," is a policy that
has come down through the ages and
is an expression of the Golden Rule
only in different words. There is in
born in man .a desire for self-preservation.
It is a law of life, and to this
desire can be attributed that which is
considered selfishness within us. .Sav
age man has little regard for the
rights and properties of others., He
lacks the sense of equity and justice
and is guided solely by the brutal in
stincts. Intelligent man realizes that
all his fellow creatures are entitled
to the same rights he would enjoy
himself. Therefore where the Chris
tian spirit is found, there can be look
ed for such equity as gives all an
equal chance to gain a livelihood and
to enjoy the products of their labor.
There should be the greatest har
mony among the citizens of every
community. The interest of all the
classes comprising a city or a district
should be considered identical. It has
been noted that the most prosperous
towns have been built up by har
monious and united effort of all the
people composing it. In these days
wien there are evils to combat, when
oppressive trusts exist that are fac
tors in unequal distribution of wealth,
it is all important that the masses in
each and every community unite and
work in harmony for the protection
and betterment of local conditions. It
it to be regretted tHat in many agri
cultural communities there is a lack
of harmony between what is called
the business interests and the produc
ers of crops. Different reasons may
be advanced for this condition, but the
most common cause is a misunder
standing on the part of the citizens
as to the rclationhip that should ex
ist between them. It is wrong for
the teachings that go forth that the
farmers' interests are different from
those of the merchant, or that the
merchants' interests differ from
farmers' of the community. It
is also an erroneous idea that the
town is alone for the townspeople
and the country districts for the farm
er. Is it not true that the merchant
is dependent upon the farmer for his
support? And it is equally true that
the town is an important thing to the
farmer. It is a convenience to him
and he is as deeply interested in all
.that pertains to it, to its advancement
and the betterment of its public insti
tutions its streets, its parks and all.
as are the people who reside within
the town. The merchants should real
ize how important the farmer is to
them, and the farmer should be
brought to a realization that the town
is for liim as well as for, those who re
side within its limits, and, that the
less antagonism between the resi
dents on the farms and the residents
of the town the better it will be for
the whole community. There is a
unity of interests that cannot be
ignored, and there is a common field
wherein all can work for mutual bene
fit. GET-RICH-QUICK GAMES.
Government Investigating the Opera
tors of Bucket Shops That Do
Business Through the Mails.
In times of prosperity there are al
ways chances for the grafter. During
the past ten years has been the era
of the get-rich-quick man. Xo sooner
does one scheme play out than an
other takes its place. Thanks to the
ever diligent postal inspectors, and an
unrelenting government, the schemers
are not so plentiful as a few years ago.
For some shears a number of supposed
legitimate grain and stock brokers
tlu-ived in both eastern and western
cities. These were active in soliciting
through the mails, and through local
offices the business of small investors.
The millions of money gained from
the unsuspecting people will never be
known. In Xew York, Chicago, St.
Louis and other cities large and ex
pensively conducted offices were main
tained. Once the government got on
the right trail, there were irregulari
ties discovered that resulted in fraud
orders being issued against a number
of the concerns. The end is not yet,
and the work of extermination will be
kept up till there is none in operation.
Buying stocks in a fair market is a
risky business,- but when there are
schemers to stack the cards against
the investor, there is not a ghost of a
show. Many a bank clerk and busi
ness man can trace his downfall to
speculating in the bucket shops.
Deadly Common Plants.
The things that give the most pleas
ure in life frequently can also cause
the greatest pain. Among flowers, for
instance, the beautiful snowdrop, the
hyacinth, jonquil and narcissus are
all poisonous, and to eat the smallest
part of the root of either of them
would produce fatal results, while the
juices of the leaves will cause violent
vomiting.
The berries of the yew tree have
killed many people, and the opium
obtained from poppies has also
claimed its victims. Lady's slipper
and lily of the valley are both danger
ous, and if the blossoms of crocus are
chewed they will cause vomiting.
Flowers from bulbous roots, however,
seem to be the most dangerous, and it
might not be out of place to dealers
in these to label them with a cross
bones and mark them poison.
Courage in Daily Life.
Bravery helps to make a -nation
safe. A nation of cowards, however
prosperous, cannot be a great nation.
Men and women who dare fling them
selves against great odds for the sake
of their convictions; who do not
shrink from crying out against any
evil that may menace the purity of
the government; who will, if need be.
sever all political, social and financial
ties' for love of country these are the
heroes to which a nation resorts in
her hour of need.
Cigarettes 'and Conscience.
The man who limits -himself to cig
arettes shows a smallness of mind.
He seems' smitten with some hidden
conscience that feels it is not right
to smoke; but he smothers it, and
with great bravado determines to be
a devil of a dog, and take a cigarette.
DAINTY SALAD DISH
COMBINATION OF TOMATO AND
PINEAPPLE.
Something New to Serve at the Next
Luncheon Proper Mixture of In
gredients for the Ap
petizer. ,
For tomato and pineapple salad,
peel medium sized tomatoes. Re
move a thin slice from top of each
and take out seeds and pulp. Sprinkle
with a little salt and place in the
refrigerator for an hour. Just before
serving fill the tomatoes with fresh
pineapple, thoroughly chilled, cut in
small pieces or shredded, and nut
meats, using two-thirds pineapple and
one-third nuts. Mix with mayonnaise
dressing; garnish with a little of
the dressing, and halves of nut meats.
Serve on a bed of lettuce leaves or
.water-cress.
Most salads should be dressed just
before serving, whether French dress
ing or mayonnaise is used. Celery or
lettuce wilt if left in oil and vinegar.
Celery should not even be washed
.long before serving, as it becomes
rusty. Potato salad takes up large
quantities of oil. and need to be very
well mixed with whatever dressing
is used.
Salads mad of greens should al
ways be served crisp and cold. Can
ned or cold cooked left-over vege
tables are well utilized in salads, but
are best mixed with French dressing,
and should be placed in the refrigora.
tor an hour or so before serving.
Meats for salads should L freed from
skin and gristle, cut into small pieces,
and allowed to stand with French
dressing before combining with veg
ctablcs. A dinner set usually consists of
from 100 to 150 pieces. All large
houses carry a number of stock pat
terns, so that one may replace at
any time a half-dozen or dozen plates
or cups and saucers. These stock
patterns are not confined to the
cheaper grades, but many of them are
artistic in design and of the best
quality of domestic and imported
china. Blue and white is particular
ly attractive for breakfast. It is no
economy to buy a cheap ware, and
the simpler the color and design,
the better. Gold is expensive. It is
well to choose china which has the
name of the maker on the bottom. If
one lives in a large city, where spe
cial sales are held once or twice a
year, great bargains may be picked up.
Lingerie Sash.
Take three yards of ribbon two
inches wide and five about three
fourths of an inch, five yards lace in
sertion, and eight yards edging. Cut
off enough wide ribbon for belt, al
lowing several inches to fold over fin
ished bow. Sew lace edging on belt
portion. Xow take balance of ribbon
and turn ends under neatly to form
poipts. Ends made this way make
the sash, hang better. Finish all
around with insertion; then narrow
ribbon; then lace edge. Make two
short loops and two long ends, and
finish by folding over extra length
left on belt piece. By basting this
on strips of newspaper it may be
made on machine in a few minutes,
the paper being necessary to keep
material from "fulling . up" under
pressor foot.
Children Hefp Themselves.
Children may be taught to help,
themselves early if thingc are ar
ranged for their convenience. A row
of shelves or a window seat box may
hold the toys when not in use. En
courage the little ones to put their
toys away. A waste paper basket may
be" an attraction and an incentive to
picking up their paper clippings, a
whisk broom and a basin of water
on a low table and some little towels
will induce clean hands and neat,
clothes, and if a cleaning cloth is
hung on a low hook whatever the lit
tle one spills he may be taught to
wipe up immediately. Even a little
"red dustpan and brush would make
picking up after itself a pleasure to
the child as well as a duty.
Porch Furnishing.
For a cottage on the lake or sea
shore the deep porch may be made a
picture in deep blues and the brilliant
scarlet of Turkey reds. This scarlet
tone may always be tfsed effectively
in porch furnishings, especially when
the scarlet and white East India cot
tons are in combination. Delft blue
gives a lovely porchroom also; the
hammock Iti blue and white -cord;,
denim cover in blue worked with,
white for the table; blue denim cush
ions for the chairs, as well as piled in
the hammosk; a big wicker armchair
petticoated and cushioned In bfeie and
whitet-Japanese cotton crepe, and on
the floor a blue and white "hit or
miss" rug in cotton.
Braiding Thin Goods.
The best way to braid thin materi
als is'to have the -pattern stamped on
heavy paper or cardboard' and baste
the material over the stamped pat
tern. Follow the outline of the pat
tern, sewing by hand or with the ma
chine. It takes some skill and experi
ence, however, to ,use the machine
for this work. If the braid is put on
by machine the stitching is done
through the paper and the paper is
afterward cut away from the back.
n
Coeoanut and Rice Pudding.
Cook half a cup- of rice' with three
pints of milk and let it cook till very
soft; then cool it Beat together the
yolks of five eggs and the whites of
three, a cup of sugar and a cup of
grated coeoanut; if this last is dedi
cated; soften with a little milk, and
squeeze dry. Stir in the rice and bake
In the oven till it is a custard. Make
a meringue of the two whites of the
eggs and put on top. Serve cold.
Old Skirt Useful.'
Take any discarded light .skirt, cut
into strips three -or four inches wide,
fagoting them together until there Is
a. piece large enough te lay a waist
pattern on and cut out. Make the
yoke of narrow, bias pieces, also fast
ened together; with fagoting. When
completed makes as.1 pretty a waist
as crm be desired. "

Bought a $12 lot, built a 12x14 shack
.and went to work as a carpenter.
Next May sold for $400 (had added
16x18 building to shack). Purchased
two lots at $70 each and built a 23x2S

Last year was my first attempt to
raise grain, l1 acres of fall wheat,
yield grand, but was frosted August
2nd, was cut August 16th and made
good pig feed. Had IV2 acres fall rye
that I think could not be beat. A
farmer frcnDakota cut it for me; he
said he never saw such heavy grain
anywhere. Straw was 7 feet high. I
had 4 acres cf 2 rowed barley on 'fall
breaking that did not do so well, yet
it ripened and gave me all the feed I
need for stock and seed for this
spring. I did not have grain threshed,
so can't give yield, but the wheat
would have gone at least 25 bu. to the
acre. Have a log stable 31x35 feet,
broad roof and two smaller buildings

HAPPENED AT BAD TIME.
Minister's Fall Significant in View off
Previous Words.
In a small church in one of the min
ing towns of Pennsylvania was a pul
pit both antique and unique. It was
about the size and shape of a flour
barrel, was elevated from the floor
about four feet and was fastened to
the wall. The ascent was by narrow
winding steps.
A minister from a neighboring town,
a man of great vigor and vehemence,
preaehed there one Sunday. While
preaching he bent forward and shout
ed out with great force the words of
his text:
"The righteous shall stand, but the
wicked shall fall."
Just as these words escaped from
his lips, the pulpit broke from its
fastening, and he fell out and rolled
over on the floor before his congre
gation. In an instant he was on his
feet again and said:
"Brethren, I am not hurt and I
don't mind the fall much, but I do
hate the connection."

For Hardening Drill.
Hardening an ordinary drill in sul
phuric acid, states the English Me
chanic, makes an edge that will cut !
tempered steel or facilitate cutting
hard rock. The acid should be poured 1
into a flat-bottomed vessel to a depth '
of about one-eighth of an inch The
point of the drill is heated to a dull
cherry red, and dipped in the acid to
that depth. This makes the point
extremely hard, while the remainder
remains soft." If the point breaks, re
harden, but with a little less acid in
the vessel.

morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons; In any quantity
they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria'
