EDITORIAL NOTES.

Georgia judge is agitating in some of the Georgia papers the calling of a national con, vention. He claims that the United States has outgrown it's present constitution and that the work of the fathers needs amend ment to bring it down to the necessities of the present day.
 A bill has been introduced into the Ohio State Senate for the purpose of appointing an Inspector of Food, whose business shall be to prevent the adulteration of food by ar- ticles injurious to the public health. He is to proceed upon information by complaint or otherwise to examine and prosecute cases of the manufacture or sale of adulterated food where the product or ingredients are deIeterious to use. Such an officer is un- doubtedly needed in every State.

China makes showing in ships which is little astonishing. The tonnage of her mer- cantile marine in 1877 had reached the sum of 4, ,00O, GOO; that of the United States the same year was 4.588, ,1s3; that of England only 6,115, ,638. The report of China covers only the Chinese vessels trading in open ports, and is exclusive of junks and the enormous number of vessels engaged in in- land traffic; that of the United States in- oludes all the canal boats and steamers on in- land waters. The Merchants company of China now own about thirty vessels; they run line of steamers between Hong Kong and Singapore, and are trying to absorb the carrying trade with California The Chinese must go.

On the second reading of the advertising
bill in the senate, the vote stood Is yeas 70 Il
nays, some two weeks ago. Yesterday on
the question OF its final passage, it stood %
to 7, thus showing a most healthy reaction
on the part of the senatorial mind. The old
and UBIQUITOUS law of three written notices in
whole county too long remained scandal
upon the country. The representatives of
the people must see to it that their constitu-
ents be properly treated in this matter of
such great concern.

WE publish in this issue the inaugural of
President Garfield. THE lateness of the hour
at which it was received last night precludes
us from making any proper review Of it and
we therefore have to defer this until to-
morrow. Tho opening Of the address, how
ever, distinctly shows the federalistic procli-
vities of the new executive, but at the same
time the conservatism of its author.

Watering MindoM.Plants.

There is nothing that seems to bother
more those who would grow window
flowers, than how often to water them.
1t is an exceedingly simple thing to
those who have had experience; though
so mysterious thing to those who have
had none. When the skilled gardener
when the plants need it, but this tells
the inquirer nothing. There still re-
mains to be understood how to tell
when plants need water. After all,
this is species of knowledge that can
not we'll be taught by another. 1t has
to be learned from experience. The
good plant-cultivator tells from the
color of the earth; but even this is a
relative term. There is dark soil and
there is light soil; but all soils are dark
er when they are wet than when dry.
One can soon learn this by experiment
ing little; and can soon tell whether
the earth is dry or wet by the eye or
finger alone. If it is wet it of course
wants no more water; if much lighter
than its usual color, the earth is dry and
needs some. 1t is an exceedingly SIM
pie matter to those who will try to
learn; to those who cannot learn them
selves it is a hopeless task.
There is one hint that we may give
that may be of value. If the earth new
er gets dry, the plants are not in good
condition. Something is wrong. 1t is
the active, growing, working roots that
take the moisture out of the earth. 1t
is sign of good health for the plant to
want frequent watering. AS we have
already said the colcr of the soil, as
compared to what it is when wet, will
tell whether it wants water or not. -

A Snake with a Scarlet Tongue.

Tonganoxie is afflicted with snake
story. Not many days ago a colored
man, while out looking for cows, near
Tonganoxie Creek, started to pick up
what he thought was club, when the
object suddenly flattened out, and the
next thing the man knew was that n
huge heart-shaped head was coming
toward him, and scarlet-forked tongue
was Mapping about close to his face.
He started at once for home, fear
lending him strength to break through
a barbed-wire fence on his way. When
he arrived in town and told his story,
the cflizens were at once aroused, for
they believed him. His story was to
the effect that when he saw the head
coming toward him he saw an immense
snake uncoil itself, black in appearance
and fully twenty feet long.
His story was verified a day or two
after by German woman, who while
hunting paw-paws near the spot saw an
immense serpent with nearly ten feet
of Its body hanging from q tree, with n
huge head waving about as If looking
for something. She became so badly
frightened that she ran back to her
home and in broken English said she
had seen "der teyfel."
After this the citizens became SO
much excited that they turned out with
revolvers, shotguns and other weapons
to search for The monster. One man
saw it near tree, and described it as
fully twenty feet long. He tred at it
three times with revolver and thinks
he struck it twice, as it squirmed some
at two of the shots and paid no attention
to one (the tirst). That there is such a
monster in the neighborhood of Tonga
noxie there can be no doubt, as Mr..
Quincy Baldwin, who lives near the
town, has heard peculiar noises about
his house of nights, and has seen tracks
across the road in the dust near his
house that measured eighteen inches
and corresponded with the reports of
the size of the reptile.
1t is thought that the serpent is the
mate of the one captured some years
ago on Tonganoxie Creek, and whose
skin was stuffed and placed in the
museum at Lawrence. 1t seems from
reports to be very much longer than
the one referred - but snake looks
mighty big when ,ne tist sees it

FireMood for the Farm.

Wood seasons much more rapidly
when split, therefore it is economy not
only to fell and haul wood for fuel from
the lot before stormy weather and
heavy roads are at hand, but to cut it
IN shape for stove and fireplace at the
same time. Wet, sappy wood is not
only wasteful, but 1t is II source of veX-
alton and discomfort. In the burning
Of dry wood the heat is nearly all of it
available, while from one-half to two
thirds of the heat produced during the
consumption of green wood escapes lat
ent and useless in the evaporating sap
and water.
In selecting wood for fuel it becomes
q matter OF economy to take for fire.

THE FIRST THANKSGIVING DAl
"A. D. 1922.

"And now" said the Governor, gazing abroad
on the piled-up store
or the sheaves that dotted the clearlngs, and
covered the meadows o'or,
lis meet that We render praises because OF
'Tis meet that tho Lord of tho harvest be
thanked for His sun and rain.
"And therefore, /, william Bradford (by the
A.. grace of God to-day,
And tho franchise of this good people), Gov
ernor of Plymouth say
Thro' virtue OF vested powcr-yc shall gather
with one accord,
And hold, in the month November, thanks
giving unto tho Lord.
"Ho hath granted us peace and plenty, and
the quiet we've sought SO long;
He hath thwartcd the willy savage, and kept
him from doing us wrong;
And unto our Feast the Sachem shall be bid
den, that he may know
We worship his own Great Spirit who makcth
the harvests grow.
$50 shoulder your IN atohlocks, masters; there
Is hunting of all degrees;
And fisherman. Ike your tackle, and scour
for sp Ill the seas:
And maidens and danes of Plymouth, your
delicate crafts employ
To honor our First Thanksgiving, and make
il a Feast of joyl
ave fail of the fruits and dainties SO close to
our hand in Devon;
All they are the lightcst losses wo suffer
Tor sake OF Heaven!
But see, IL, our open clearings, how golden
h-...i the melons lie;
Enrich them with sweets and spices, and
give us the Pumpkin-Pic!'
SO, bravcly the preparations went on for the
autumn Feast:
The drer and the bear were slaughtered;
". wild game from the greatest to least
Was heaped in the Colony cabins; brown
homc-brew served for wine,
And the plum and the grape of the forest,
for orange and peach and pine.
At length came the day appointed; the snow
had begun to fall,
But the clang from the Westinghouse boifry
rang merrily out for all,
And summoned the folk of Plymouth, who
hastened with glad accord
To listen to Elder Brewster as he fervently
: thanked the Lord.
In his seat safe Governor Bradford; men,
marons and maidens fair;
Miles Standish and ali his soldiers, with corsc-
!et md sword. were there;
And sobbing AMI tears and gladness had each
In Its turn the sway,
For the grave of the sweet Rose Standish
o'ershadowed Thanksgiving Day.
And when Massasoit, the Sachem, safe down
with his hundred braves,
And ATE of the varied riches of gardens and
woods and waves,
And looked on the pranaricd harvcst--witha
blow on his brawny chest,
He muttered; 1.-THE good Great Spirit loves
+ His white children bestv r
And then, as the Fcast was ended with
grnvey official air,
The Governor drew Its broad sword out from
its scabbnrd there,
And smit ny the trencher near him, hocrled.
