A graphophone or phonograph or some such Instrument In the Hayden booth at i he Corn exposition began to play "Was There Ever Such a Night?" Qrenlche&ux'a song In the "Chimes of Normandy," and a man standing In front of the Southern Pa cific booth was startled at the change of expression in the man he was talking to.

In speaking of Improving t.e breed Of oata Garton goes on record as saying: "There are but four stops which have oc curred In Improving our farm pi nta. First, selection; sreend, regeneration; third, sltnpla crossing; fourth, compo&Uecrossing. "There Is much encouragement for th belief that vast change are possible In the Improvement of our farm plants, riant breeding Is not a matter of mystery, but merely a question of careful Investigation and tho Intense application of the princi ples that govern plant life. The plant Is more pliable than the animal In the hands of the breeders. The underlying principles of Improvement sre much the same. The success to be attained will be largely In fluenced by the persistence and Interest with which the principles aro applied. The Amertian farm has been likened to a mine from which you take the fertility of the soil. The wonderful productiveness of your farm has made the use of Improved stork and Improved farm crops thus far a mattor of secondary Consideration. If the history of American agriculture can be likened1 to the history of other countries It will be necessary to pay a great deal more atten tion to these details In the future. The farm must become a modern factory where Is evolved the highest type and the maxN mum of aU farm products." Kl'RAJ, DOr PROPOSES TO GIRL lUwbone Chap Puts t'p Some .'

He had attended every lecture given by the talented women who are speaking In behalf of the Model Kit chen department of the corn show, and his Invariable presence has caused no little wonder among tna seventy girls who are working in the kitchen-laboratory and taking nptos on the lectures. At first Miss Besack and others thought his Interest in domestic science was genuine, for once in a while he asked a question of the lecturer and seemingly betrayed an almost Intelli gent Interest In tho problems of how to grow fat without food, whether the hostess or guest of honor should be served first, and so on. But as the days have gone by, it was noticed that his glance rested as often on a Sheridan county girl, Laura Shelby of Rushvllle, as on the 'fair lecturer of the day. Miss Shelby grew restless under this attention and confided her plight to Miss Burbank, another comely young woman. "I feel certain the horrid thing Is going to speak to me." whispered Miss Shelby. "Freeze him," suggested the other. "But he is so good looking," sighed Miss Shelby In return. She was left alone a few minutes later and the large stranger timidly approached. "I beg pardon, ma'am," said he defer entially, "but do you know If any of these gels would be willing to consider a propo sition to to " "To what?" demanded Miss Shelby. "To get married," blurted out the blushing giant. "I have the prettiest half section In Richardson county, well stocked and a nice house and" Miss Shelby had fled.

That he Is Progres sive and up-to-date is shown by the fact that as road supervisor, a position he has held for thirty years, he waa among the first to put in concrete bridges.

FIRST BATHE OVER RULES "Insurgent" in House Almost Carry Point for Revision. SPEAKER IS BARELY SUSTAINED Congressman Gardner firings Up Question on Privileged Motion, but Whole Proposition is Finally Killed. WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-At the outset of the proceedings In the house of repre sentatives today the roll waa called on a motion by Mr. Gardner, .republican ot Massachusetts, to discharge the commit tee on foreign affairs from further con sideration of the resolution cal.lng.on the secretary of state for a' statement as to whether he has In his possession infoi na tion as to whether' or not the Bmlsh House of Commons has appointed a com mittee to report on the advisability of changing its rules and that the resolution be considered by the house. Mr. Gardner Is one ot several so-called "Insurgents" who believe that the rules ot the house of representatives should be changed. The motion of Mr. Gardner prevailed. 140 to 134, and thereupon he offered an amend ment eliminating all reference to tne de ! niand on the secretary of state for Informa tion and leaving In the reaolutlou simply the provision for .the appointment of eight members to report on the question of re Vising the rules. Messrs. fayne. New York, and Dalsell, Pennsylvania, were, quickly on their feel with points of order, both insisting that as A portion of tne resolution would be stricken out, the resolution no longer was privileged. Against that contention Mr, Gardner vigor ously arrayed himself and he cited several precedents to support his argument. With equal vigor, Mr. Fitzgerald, demo crat, New York, upheld the contention of Mr. GaTdnej. In an elaborate opinion, the speaker sus talned Messrs, Dalzell and Payne, holding that the character, of the resolution had been changed In such a way as to render It nonprlvlleged. Mr1, Gardner promptly appealed, but alert to the Importance of the proposition, Mr. Payne moved to lay the appeal on the table and on that motion a roll call was forced. By a vote of yeas 149; noes 136; absent 4; the speaker waa sustained. Twenty republicans voted against the speaker as follows: Boyd, Nebraska; Camp bell, Kansas; Caulfleld, Missouri; Cooper, Wisconsin; Davis, Minnesota; Bills, Mis souri; Fowler, New Jersey; Gardner, Mas sachusetts; Gronna, North Dukota; How land. Ohio; Hubbard, West Virginia; Lind bergh, Minnesota; McKlnlay, California; Madison. Kansas; Nelson, Minnesota; Nye, Minnesota; Pearre, Maryland; Pollard, Ne braska; Bturgiss, West Virginia; Volstead, Minnesota, The resolution, then, on motion of Mr. Gardner, after he had further attacked the rules of Uie house, was laid on the table, 137 to 42, which has the effect ot killing the whole proposition. Ft'I.I. Pl'BLIt'ITY FOR MAGAZINES Texas Consjressmaa Has Plan to Exploit Ownership. WASHINGTON, Dec. 16 With a view of letting the public know what Influence operated upon It through the press. Rep resentative Cooper of Texas today In troduced a bill to exclude newspapers and magazines from the mails unless tht names of the owner and editor or officers, directors and stockholders be printed on its front page. "There Is no agency In the government so powerful as newspapers to affect the politics and policies of the government and the morals of the people," explained Representative Cooper In discussing he bill. "This being true, the people have a right to know who their teachers are and what influences may operate upon them. If the people knew the owners of the paper and the Influences and motives that may prompt the editorials and writ ings therein, they would better be able to give proper value and weight to the published articles."

Borrowers on tb straight-loan plan sre but rarely ever ready to repay the loan at tho end of the period for which it is borrowed. As a rule, npon the maturity of the debt, they are obliged to extend name for another period ot five years, at the expanse of another commission and considerable additional cost. Loans on our plan are constantly reduced by monthly payments and require no renewal. The average of our borrowers pay off their loans very much mpre Quickly than those who take straight loans, and by so doing they get rid of the debt and actually pay out a less amount of Interest than do borrowers on the ordinary time-loan.
