a Frenchman in Kansas.


The Garnett Journal tells the fol-
lowing story, as illustrating what
SIMON pure energy will do for man
on the prairies of Kansas:
Look at the enterprise of Bossier
at Williamsburg, in Franklin county.
Years ago he started out on painless
prairie, almost twenty miles from any
trading point, to try what appeared at
the time the virtues of a chimera. q
race after ignis fatuus-the establish
meEt of the silk business in the wilds
OF Kansas. The encouragement he re-
ceived was the fippant remark that
"the little Frenchman was crazv."
But the little Frenchman paid no at
tention to what people thought or
said. Steadily he pursued the even
tenor of his way. His mulberries
fourished around him, and his silk
worms multiplied and spun the same
delicate web that went into the looms
ofLyons. Finally the silk manufac-
turcrs of France drew on Bossier for
the silk worms of Kansas. His chime
ra became a reality. French francs
came back TO replace the dollars he had |
expended on the houseless prairie. |
Ribbon looms went up, and the finest |
French article is not superior to that
turned off within twenty miles of
Garnett to-day"
In noticing the above, an exchange
ldds:
suppose for moment that Bos-
ier's capital and energy had been
urned in the direction of the staples
instead of fancy goods, do you suppose
Ie would have failed? No! Such men
now no such word in their vocabu-

If l Had Leisure.

"lf had leisure, | would repair thai
weak place in my fence, 'said a farmer
lie had none, however, and while
drinking cider with a neighbor, the
COWS broke in and injured a prime
piece OF corn. He had leisure then to
repair his fence, but it did not bring
back his corn.
IF had leisure, ''said wheelvright
last winter, ~ would have altered nv
stove pipe, for know it is not safe.''
But ne did not find time and when his
shop caught fire and burned down he
found time to build another.
''lf had LEISURE" said a merchant
81 should pay more attention to my
accounts, and pay and collect my bills
more promptly" The chance is. my
friend, if you had leisure you would
probably pay less attention TO the
matter than you do now.
The fact is, farmers and mechanics
have more leisure than they are aware
of for study and improvement of their
minds. They have the long evenings
of winter in which they can post them
selves upon all the improvements of
the day, if they viii take ably con-
Quoted agricultural journals and read

The National Grange.

The Couriey-Jounoz of the oath ult..
gives the following brief sketch of the
new Master:
Judge John Thompson Jones is ma
tive of Essex county, Virginia, having
been born in that county in the wear
1878; was educated at the University
of Virginia, graduating in the year 1888.
having taken the law course. He re-
moved to within ten miles of Helena.
Arkansas, where he settled on a plan
tation, and has lived there since that
time. Was elected judge Of first Judi
cial circuit of Arkansas in 1912. and
again in 1876, serving two terms of
four years each. Was elected to the
Senate of the United States in 1866.
before the State was reconstructed.
aud was not admitted TO a seat. this
being the only political Office for which
he ever offered.
lie retired from the bench in 1850
and has been devoted TO planting ever
since, as well as having carried OH a
large planting interest while on the
bench.
Judge Jones has two large planta-
lions in Phillips county, Arkansas, cul-
tiyating yearly about one thousand
acres, and one on Red river having four
acres in cultivation. His first
care was TO have an abundant provis-
ION crop, in which he never failed, in
addition to making about eight hun
dred bales of cotton annually, and 9TH
er crops IN proportion. His election
gives great satisfaction, and it is felt
that the Grange will prosper under his
leadership.

Importance of Good Cooking.

TO cook a potato exactly right. SO
that it will be just done and no more.
be mealy, white, perfect, requires an
exercise of that talent little short Of
genius, so one would think who eats
that vegetable at ordinary tables. The
same is true of oLions, that odorons
bulb, which is almost always served
underdone: of beans, which are either
burned in the baking or dried to a
choking consistency. Now a hungry
epieure even can make good meal of
three or four things-nicely cooked
meat, perfectly prepared potato, a dish
OF ripe fruit, and exemplary bread and
butter. 1t is not variety or QUANTITY
that is so important as quality, and if /
those who cook conld only realize this |
and precipitate all their powers upon
the perfect preparation of only two |
dishes at each meal, those who feed at
their hands would certainly be the
gamers. 1t is a great deal easier. when
one has really made up her mind TO it
to have everything just right than it is
to let things drift, for one right thing
Its into another right thing and then
he whole is right. Badly cooked food
s not only sheer waste in nerve, mus
lie, soul power The hungry body
Tainly attemps rccuperation in trying

Brushing Clothes.

Woolen clothes must be occasionally
beaten SO as to raise the dust before
brushing. The following directions
for brushing will be found useful:
Having the garment on wooden horse
beat it gently with a small switch or
cane, free from knots. A lady's whip
is the best busting tool. Do not strike
too hard, or you will break the mold
buttons. Rub gently between the
hands any spots of dirt set firm, and
be sure that the garment is dry before
You commence Oh it.
Two clothes brushes should be pro-
vided. hard and a soft one; and new
er use the former unless to remove fixed
dirt. The soft brush does not wear
off the nap, and will suffice TO remove
hair. lint, dust, etc. The brush inn
proves after little use, when the sharp
edges of the bristlcs are worn off, and
the brush usually called the Hacking
brush is one of the best for the pur-
pose.
After busting coat, spread it out
on a table, free from grease, with the
collar toward your left hand; COM
mence brushing the inside of the col
lar, then the back and sleeves. The
nap of the cloth is toward the skirts,
so let the stroke of the brush be in that
direction. Next brush the two lappels,
lastly the outside of the collar, and
then fold It over and brush the inside
in like manner Wipe the dust off the
table before you turn the garment, and
II the coat is intended 10 be placed in
a trunk, you must fold it according di-
rections, but if for immediate veal, or
to be laid along in a wardrobe or draw
er no further folding is necessary.
a gentleman's wardrobe should be
covered with a linen cloth, and fire. |
quent opportunities taken to air, as
clothes are apt 20 acquire an unpleas-
ant smell when kept close for any
length of time, and moreover are sub
ject to the moth. The best airing is to
wear garment occasionally.
Be particular 10 keep the clothes
brushes clean, washing them OCCASION
ally in cold water with soap, or rub
bing them on paper placed over the
edge of board.

Has Your Grange a Home /?

The worthy master of the National
Grange, Brother Dudley W. Adams, in
his annual address, at Louisville, has
the following:
l have yet to learn of the first failure
of grange which owned and occupied
convenient, comfortable, and well
appointed hail.
This corresponds fully with my OBJ
servation, and it is perfectly natural
that it should be so. The grange
should have home of its own. In
this we have a foundation of perma-
nency; center Of unity and of attrac-
tlon, and where we feel an identity of
interest and of family pride; our home.
Brothers, you that have not already
done so, lose no time in taking meas
ures TO build neat and comfortable
hall for your grange. Do this and
viii be responsible that the sisters will
adorn its walls with wreaths and fes-
toons of beautiful flowers, and hand
some pictures; they will procure an
organ TO give tone and lead the vocal
music; and, better than all. and as a
complement of all they will be prompt
ly there at every meeting to give zcst
and interest to all these occasions.
This Is not simply theory, or a barren
ldeality-I could name number of
oranges where | have seen it practi-
cally exemplified. 1t is needless to say
that all such oranges are prosperous.
aud that such word as failure is not
found inside their halls, or in all their
vocabulary. On the contrary, YOU see
the signs Of prosperity, fraternity. hap |
piness, faith, hope, charity, fidelity,
perseverance, and success everywhere. |
Let every grange, as soon as possible, |
have a comfortable and convenient |
hall Of IFS own. Nothing we can do
will have greater tendency to firmly
and perpetuate our order
than his.-CoImdR's World.

Why are farmers so liable to rheu-
matism? Because they wear wet
clothing, oyereat and suddenly chill
the body after great exertion, and be-
cause they do not keep the skin in
vigorous, clean and healthy condition.
Ifihey would be careful not to go with
wet clothing and wet feet, and if they
would not oyereat when in an exhaust
ed condition, and battle daily, using
much friction, they would have less
rheumatism. The same rule applies
TO others than farmers.
