Omaha lodso No. M, Loyal Order of
Moose, I inn k I nc a lRoroim ami succokr
fu menitcrhlti campnlun Just now. and
lariro Classen are brln Inltliited nt each
moelliiK of tho lodge. Tlio Mooee occupy
tho club house built nm! formerly occu
pied by tho Omaha lUcquet club, but
havo in mind tho crecUon of 11 club house
to bo on nod by tho order. A building
committee tins luen nppolnted and em
powered to purchase a slto and proceed
with tho erection ot tho building. Tho
present membership of the Omaha loduo
la above 1.000. Judso A. I Sutton la Us
presiding- officer.
In tho Chicago Tribune of last Wednes
day Henry M. Hydo wrote of the Ixyol
Order ot Moose nnd one of Its projects
as follows:
"A great farm of 1.000 acres of the most
fertile and beautiful land In tho valley
of tho Fox river, lyliw within forty
miles of ClilcaKo, Improved with a doten
great workshops, a power house, an ad
ministration building;, a school house,
und a score of handsome and convenient
cottages.
On this farm a population of more
than 1.000 children, boya and Klrls, living-,
study'nir and working under th direction
of matrons, famous oducutora and master
workmen, each learning ono of ton or
dorcn different trades, graduating nt
lie end of four years with a diploma
which qualifies Its holder ns a mcmbor
n good standing of a trade union.
.Scope or the l'lnn.
"A school In which a boy nmy spend
tho wholo of the first year In drifting
from one tmdo to another until ho finds
that which ho likes best and for which
ho Is best qualified. Just as In outside
llfo tho unsettled boy, fresh from tho
fifth or sixth grado of the publla schools,
Irlfts unsatisfied from one Job to an
other, so here he might spend a month
In tho printing office, leave that for the.
machine shop, nnd finally wind up ns
a scientific farmer.
"A great rarm school which owes
nothing to tho benefaction of any phllan
thropiflt, about which there Is no taint
of cither publla or private charity. A
school which startH with nn annual In
come of JfiOO.OOO; a school which Is owned
In common by POO.00O men of modest po
sition and Income, iO per cent of them
being members of various trades unions.
"That la a dream of oo-operatlvo effort
which 100 experts have asserted can never
be realized In America. In ISuropo co
operation on a big scale has been tr
mcndously succesoful, but, as l.ODO fall
urea prove, tho people of tho United
State cannot ha persunded to co-oporule.
'''Unfortunately for the
such a great farm school Is fast being
worked out by ono ot the hugo co-opera
tive fraternities which havo had such
rapid growth lu the United States.
Tho tract of 1,000 acres ot farm Innds,
lying close to llatavla, along the jAix
river, has boen bought and paid for and
tho school has already been started with
somo fifty students. In temporary build
ings.
There could be no mora Improsslvo
demonstration of the tremendous power
of co-oporatlon on a national scale than
tho fact that this now school should be
started with an assurod Incomo ot JC00,
000 annually mora than that ot most
universities whllo tlio tax on any lndl
virtual for Its support Is not nioro than
fl a year.
Conlcy Asked to He Head
"13. 0. Cooley, late superintendent of
ochools In Chicago, has been Invited to
head tho project, at a handsome salary,
and virtually has agreed to undertake
the work. If arrangements are completed
It Is expected that tho school will bo or
gnnlied and developed on now and most
Interesting lines,
"Thcro will bo large buildings on tho
farms for tho housing ot ten great work
shops, each devoted to tho teaching nnd
nractlco of a different trade, xno as
slstant teachers In these shops will bo
mombers of tho unions of their several
trades.
' Ono year they will teach In tho rami
schools! tho second year they will bo
required to spend working ut their trades
In outsldo shops; the third In organizing
nnd establishing branch schools In vari
ous parts of tho country, tho studonts of
which may bo taught largely by corre
spondence. "In other words the farm schools will
have a sort of huge trlpl faculty, only
ono-thlrd of which will bo actively on
gaged In teaching at any ono time,
"Tim great schools at llatavla are only
one of a number of co-operatlvo activi
ties which aro being planned by tho
Loyal Order of Moose, a. fraternity
which seems to differ from most of the
otho- great fraternal orders only in that
It does not offer llfo Insurance to ItB
members. Its clforts In tho Insurance
lino are confined to the payment of
small sick benoflts to Us members.
"Tlvi tremendous and rapid growth of
the order, from less than 300 members In
jjlfOC to 600.000 members at present, with
out tho attraction of cheap assessment
life Insurance Is chlofly interesting as
showing that under tho direction of com-
petort and well puld organizers It Is pos
sible to Interest thousands 01 people in
tho United States In co-oporatlon.
Cost of the l'lnn.
"The Initiation fee of $3 charged caoh
new member Is devoted to the payment
of organization and administrative ex
pons, leaving the whole of tho 110 un
nua) fee from mombers to be devoted to
the various co-operatlvo activities of the
order These fees from the present mem
bcrshln provldo an annual fund of
JJ.0u0.OW, only one-tenth of which Is to
bo devoted to tho school, where tho sons
und daughters of mombers are to be
c tested.
"Hventuaily It Is hoped that tho school
mayo become largely self-supporting, ono
of tho proposed plants be ng a cunning
factory where the vegetables und frultB
ra'sed on the farm may be preserved nnd
prepared for sale.
"In more than twonty-flvo cities where
th order is especially strong, buildings
have bean purchased, and more or less
elaborate club rooms fitted up up. One
of tho Chicago lodges has bought and
now occupies 11 building on Adams stroet,
east of Wubush avenue.
In the future the order Is plunnlng to
oNpctlment In manufacturing Is success
fill, how long will It be before wholesn'
and retull co-operative shops will b
opened to dlstrlbuto product?
"Certainly tho fact that 16,000,000 me
and women are mtmbors of the varlou
fraternal lnsurunco orders In the L'nlte(
Ptntes Is proof that In ono direction, a
least, they have learned to co-operate
And the further fact that the half mil
Hon members ot tho Moose had been re
crultod without tho Insurance attractloi
would seem to Imlloata' that the field l
ready for co-operat.vo efforts along new
and nioro radical lines."

STANDARD WEIGHT FOR GEMS
Uniform System of WHeklutr Pre
cious Stone Adopted by
Governments.
Tho metrio carat of 200 milligrams ha
been adopted as the standard of weight
for diamonds and oilier precious stone
by tho bureau of standards, department
of commerce. This standard will be
used In thb certification of all carat
weight submitted to tho government
for certification In the future. Tho
Treasury department has also adopted
this standard to be uc-i In the customs
service In levying tho duties on gems.
This change from the former Indefinite
carat weight, usually equal to about S0S.3
milligrams, to the definite metric Carat
warn made possible by the Joint action ot
all the large dealers In precious stones.
They realized the chaotic condition due
to tho various weights used as a carat
and, deciding upon th metrio carat a
a solution of the difficulty, agreed to
puts Its use into effect 011 the same duU.
Until recently nearly every civilized
'country of tho world has used a differ
ent standard of weight for diamonds, the
artlclo ubove all upon which theto shouUi
bo the best agreement ns to the urlt of
weight because of the great value of tho
commodity. Itccently tho movement of
uniformity In the standard rapidly gained
ground, and Spain. Italy, Bulgaria, Den
mark, Norway, Japan. Portugal Rumania,
Switzerland, Sweden. France, Germany,
Holland and Belgium, with the United
States are In the list of those countries
now using the new International stan
dard. England Is the only country of
Importanco In which th change has not
yet been made, but considerable progres
toward that end has been made, tren In
that country.
Circular No. 4, Just Issued by the bereuu
of stnndards. gives complete tables by
wnicn wcignts in the old carats can be
determined In the units of tho new and
vice versa. By using tho tables one may
dotermlno the weight of a diamond In th
terms of the now carat. It tho weight lc
the old units Is known. For example
the famous Culllnan diamond which, un
