The Methods Taken to Diminish the APP
parent Deficiency.
Everybody snccrod at the reported deficiency
last July, which, fore campaign purposes, was
made to appear MANY millions short of the
reality. Daily developments are made as to
the way this was cooked up. rather cooked
down. The latest is that $50, 0oO. 900 was with
held from the pay-rnilof the Army for June.
This has got to be made up, and the question
is, How? In recent interview with Pay
master General Stanton. Secretary Lamont
suggested borrowing the necessary amount
but tho General informed him that as Secre
tary OF War he had authority to do this
adding that Mr.. Lamont as q private citizen
might advance the money. The Secretary said
that the Army ought to be paid, and that he
was inclined to advance the money himself
Here the matter ended for the time being. and
what further steps the Secretary will take or
has taken remain to he disclosed. In case the
Secretary should mako the advance from his
private resources, he would have to depend
upon Congress to make the loan good by de-
fciency appropriation.

Some interesting facts abou. women are re-
vealed by the second appendix TO its list of pat.
enis. issued by the Patent Office the other day.
The Office WAS established in 1890, and the FIRST
patent issued to woman WAS in 1909. to Mary
hies, for method Of weaving straw with silk
or thread. Six years later one was issued to
Mary Brush for a corset. II was not until 1923
that more than ons patent per year was issued
10 women. Ia 1862 only IL patents were issued
to women. that being the largest in any year
up 10 That time. The war. however. developed
the inventive genius OF women, and the annual
number of patents issued TO them increased
rapidly. Many of them were for either fight
ing or nursing devices. The annual Issue in.
creased steadily yoar by year. In 1870 it was
60, in 1850 il WAS %, in 1890 over 200 and in
1893 over 300. The pamphlet gives classif-
cation Of ~omen's inventions. This shows that
wearing apparel leads the list, with l6o differ
ent patents in 80 months. Then comes cook.

Abroad it is always served so, though it is but
little used here They make it at the cream

that butter does not have to be sailed, that salt
hurts rather than helps in preserv wing the flavor.

They have most remarkable fences here
Beside the ordinary wire and -ail fences-the
rail fences including both the zig gag and the
straight Ones there are walls made of the stone
that have been picked up from the feds-for
this is q most stony country, and fences made of
up-rOoted stumps. 1t would be difficult to con-
ceive anything ugler than stump fences. Ma
ture tries to conceal their CHASTITY shapes with
her soft.clinging vines, but in vain. The stumps
and roots dry, and are dull gray in color The
stiffened roots writhe and twist until they are
the more like deformed octopus than like
anything else in the world.
The low stone walls and the rail fences are
exceedingly pretty now with punches of golden
rod caught in the crannies, or with daisies or
Queens lace bordering them. Then there is
vine with little, fine leaves that redGen with
the first suggeStiOn OF Autumn. and 1T runs in
the bitches and Chambers over rocks aud stumps
anu tings its little red ribbons wherever it can
reach and makes life gay with its cheerful
glow.
They do say that the folks around on these
mouataius sometimes preserve May-apples.
They boil them in n thin strip; but all the
boiling and sugaring in the world fail to make
this queer little fruit tender or palatabe.

The country round about is getting all ready

pumpkins are beginning to show their fat
yellow sides in among the slender stalks
Sometimes particularly jolly, inquisitive
pumpkin climbs out between the bars outside
the fence and grows away from its fellows and
from the corn, aud it looks ever so lazy aud
funny along the roadside.
