Representative Flower, of

Representative Flower, Of New
York who is chairman of the dcmocra-
tic congressional campaign committee
is suffering very much from violent
attack of the presidential fever. He
is also suffering from a severe drub-
bling which he received from the eX-
ecutiye committee of the National As
sociation of democratic clubs. Mr..
Flower attempted to side track the
committee and to keep the clubs out
of the campaign so that he could put
himself to the front and knife Mr..
Cleveland or any body else that hap.
pened to get in the way of his aspira-
tons. This program did not suit the
club men and they kicked so hard that
it was upset, but Mr.. Flower is mil
lionaire, and az he puts up freely
when he wishes to carry point. the
fight is not won yet.

RADIO rain belt. There is plenty of rain
togrow any crop if properly distribut-
ed. At times there is not enough
moisture in the ground to bring the
dews, and the result is drouth. The
Australian plan is to make artificial
lake or reservoirs is every hollow,
from one to a dozen on every farm.
These reservoirs act as a catch basin
for the surplus rainfall in the spring
and fall, and during the hot months in
summer the water in these ponds is
absorbed, and brings rain. The
rain belt farmer can accomplish the
desired result if they adopt this plan,
and the work to each individual or
farmer would be comparatively moth
ing 1t is clear to any mind that lakes
of water scattered oven the plains in
this manner would be beneficial.

Seventeen years ago the price OF
corn was about the same as it is to
day. 1t was used for fuel all ovel
Kansas and Nebraska and thousands
of bushels went to waste on the ground
The next year the same farmers bought
corn at 75c and dollar bushel.
History has a habit of repeating it self
and the farmers who are burning corn
because it is easier than to "get up
wood may be kicking themselves for
their folly before they are twelve
months older.-Exchange.

Kansas has had a soaking rain
which extended all over the state, and
it was notable abundant in those sec
tons which have been suffering from
dry weather. 1t will only be few
weeks now until the rolling prairies
are clothed in verdure, and dotted with
flocks and herds. The preparations
for spring work advanced to a degree
which is unusual at this season of the
year, as the winter has been highly
favorable to all kinds of outside work.
Despite the low price of grain the
corn acreage in Kansas will be fully
as large this year as last, and large
proportion of the ground has already
been prepared for planting. There
will be much less grain to sell in Kan
sas next year than there is now for the
farmers are rapidly stocking up with
cattle and hogs and will hereafter send
their corn to market in the shape of
beef and pork. The knowledge which
they have acquired during the past
year is going to stay with them. They
have learned some things which they
are not likely to forget. They are pre-
pairing to diversity their crops, and if
they will follow this up by diversif-
cation of politics they can bring about
a great improvement in their condition.

A SUCCESSFUL HOAX PERFORATED
on TIE BRITISH PUBLIC
MANY YEARS AGO.

One Of the celebrated hoaxes OF
history took place in London, Janu-
airy l6, 1919. Some unknown per-
sob advertised that he would on that
evening ia the Haymsrket Theatre,
play on common walking-cane
the music Of every instrument then
used; that he would while on the
stage get into common quart bot
tie, and while inside would sing sew
eral songs and permit any person to
handle the bottle; that he would, if
any of the spectators came masked,
tell who they were, and that in a
private room he would produce the
representation Of any dead person
and male him speak. In spite Of
the absurdity Of this advertisement,
the hosse was crowded. The Duke
OF Cumberland was one Of the dis
tinguished fools present. The peo-
Pile waited patiently for the phenOm-
email performer 10 arrive, but when he
failed to appear they began to get
angry. They Missed and shouted
until person connected with the
theatre came forward and annOunc-
ed that If there was no performance
the money would lie refunded.
Somebody in the gallery suggested
that IL the spectators would pay dou-
BILE prices Of admission the conjurer
would go into 4 pint bottle. The
crowd laughed, but soon made a
charge upon the stage. Cumberland
was in fury, and wanted the the
atre pulled down. He drew his
sword, but somebody wrested the
weapon out OF his hand. Most Of the
audience rushed out Of the theatre
pell-mell, many losing their hats,
cloaks, wigs and swords, but some
remained inside and gave vent to
their rage by teanDg up the benches,
smashing up the scenery and pulling
down the boxes, bringing the debris
into the street, where they made
big bonfire of il. The curtain was
hoisted over the blazing pile rs n
flag. 1t was never known why the
hoax was perpetrated. The proprie-
tor Of the theatre was honest in his
intention TO refund the admission
money, and he woald have done so
had not the crowd destroyed his
property. 1t is thought the conjurer
simply tested the credulity VI the
public. Chicago NelCs.

WOMEN AS FARMERS.
THEY ARE AS SKILFUL AND PRU.
DENT MANAGERS As THEIR
HUsIANpS.

Farmers who find the business
profitable owe much Of their success
TO the good management Of their
wives, says Ike Indianapolis Neps.
Ii is conceded by all that n farmer
without a wife who is a good man.
ager cannot expect to make money.
As n general thing farmers wives
are as skllful managers rs their hus-
hands, and share almsst equally
with them the burdens and priva-
tons Of farm life. 4 woman who
has been reared In the country finds
pleasure and health in overseeing
the dairy, the garden and the poul-
try yard, as well as looking after
her household duties. When a far
mer has such n wife he can devote
his entire time TO his general farm
work. and ut the end II the year the
profits will be well nigh doubled.
There are in Indiana great many
women who farm extensively aud
are as skilled in the business as any
Of the men. These women have
made money out Of the business.
and would not give il up for any
other calling. Marion County has
quite a number Of women who have
been giving farming much thought,
and are equipped to make the bus
iness a success. Many Of these Ia
dies are members OF county agri-
cultural societies, and their views
are always given as much weight n
those expressed by the male MEM
bers.
Miss Ida Richardson, who was
brought up on a farm south Of the
city, believes that successful and en-
joyable farming depends largely
upon the home management by the
wife. She would have the wife be
n helpmeet TO the husband in all
things; not r slave TO work, but a
woman who takes an interest in the
affairs ofthe farm and manages the
home so as TO increase the husbands
prof :. She thinks the country
home is, or should be, the ideal one.

IN A RUNAWAY ELEVATOR.
VISITORS IN A HOSPITAL SPEND A
LIVELY HALF HOUR TRY
ING To GIT OUT.

What might have resulted in a IA
tai accident, but developed into a
iudicrOus circumstance, happened a
short time ago in the Allegheny
General Hospital. A well known
man in the steel business, who is
popularity called Tom, was attacked
by n serious trouble in the head. a
physician persuaded him to go 10
the Allegheny General Hospital.
One Saturday four men from the
steel works formed n party and called
upon the sick man. His nom was
on the second floor and it was neces-
sary TO take the elevator. The trip to
the room passed Off successfully;
very differently, however, ON the
return. After remaining with the
invalid for some time it was suggest
ed that it would lie advisable TO 20.
Coming around to the elevator,
the bell was rung 10 call il. A pretty
blonde nurse, with laughing eyes.
asked IL any of the party could run
an elevator, because she had n pOul-
tice to put on n patient and she was
afraid IL would cool IL she took the
elevator down again. The leader Of
the Iarty came TO the front aud said
he would operate the elevator, hav-
ing had experience, and was an
adept at the job.
Having got In the elevator the
leader pulled the rope the reverse
way to the floor which was wanted.
Like flash the machine struck the
roof of the hospital, seriously dis
concerting the entire party. a
rumble OF dis ontent was heard
within the box while the men were
Strengthening their battered hats.
AgIin the elevator rope was pulled,
and quicker than the first ride in
the elevator the party was landed in
the cellar. Fully twenty minutes
the elevator was going up and down
in n remarkable manner. Every
man In the uncomfortable box tried
his skill in stopping it. Up and
down went the elevator. On every
floor numbers Of nurses and patients
had gathered, watching the antics
Of the machine.
The elevator was Mt last stopped at
the same floor which the men got in
at. One Of them thought that for
security's sake and his family's, not
having an insurance on his life, he
had better get out. Just as he put
one foot on the passage the elevator
made sudden shoot, and he was
sent whirling along the hall. His
clothes suffered considerably.
When the elevator got started
again she was as unmanageable as a
wild bull. The nurses shrieked, and
the whole place was like bedlam.
After spending half an hour see
saving the mad machine was finally
brought to a standstill. All got out
they were alive.-EfIsJUrg

Almost any person who has no

reply at once, cit has no color"
Yet everybody knows either
through hearsay or by the evidence
Of his own eyes, that the ocean is

n question that few who have crossed
it have ever sought to solve, and
there are probably many travellers
who, though they have seen most Of
the famous rivers and lakes In the

markable difference in color which
their waters present. Even the
ocean is no. uniform in color; in
some places its waters are green or
