WHAT OF THE FuTuRE7
If This Continue, What will Becomt
of the FarmsS

Undeniably the best crop that the
old farmers produced was men. SAYS
Boston paper They sent for b these
hardy young children of the soil 70
strengthen and energize all the higher
forces of our civilization. II might be
unjust to say that they are not doing
II still, but il is TO a less extent, reIa-
lively, than In what are now called the
good old days. The advantages of edu-
cation extend 70 the boys on the farm
more than ever before. ii is true. and
they grasp them more generally and
more eagerly. But for what purpose?
TO escape from their humdrum envir-
onment and enter that larger and
more active world where the prizes
as well as the failures are greater. The
passion TO see and enjoy life as it is
lived in the great centers of population
and business IS more intense than il
ever was in the days that are past,
and education rather stimulates it than
otherwise. Even the farmers them
selves have the Infection, and If they
do not encourage they only weakly
restrain their educated children from
turning their requirements to what
seems to them better account than the
tillage Of the soil. Only a small pro-
portion even of the graduates Of our
agricultural colleges. though given a
special technical equipment for that
service, return TO the farm. they
can gain fortune and reputation and
experience in some other calling they
frequently like to resume farming as
an ayocation, but only in comparative
~ rare instances is it adopted as life
work.
These are hard facts, but we might
as well face them. The census reports
show steady decrease of population and
production in the rural portions of the
State, yet educational opportunities
were never before so general or avail
able as now. 1t would be a sad con-
fession that there was no remedy for
this, but the remedy has not yet been
found Education benefits the farmer
as much as the lawyer both in his bust
ness and his citizenship, and it should
not be held responsible for the de-
preston in agricultural industry; but
the social pI ,e Is such that the hus-
blndman cannot follow It, There must
enter into the business the elements
that make success along other lines
cooperation and capital-before 1t will
become attractive to the educated and
the ambitious.

The only Good Paper Currency.

All propositions for the retirement of
the legal tenders and the abolition of
the treasury reserve as a feature of our
currency system are coupled with the
demand for banking system that
would afford large note circulation,
one more responsive to the huctuating
demands of business and one whose re-
serve would be maintained by banks
which would be compelled by the con-
ditions of their existence and by law
to protect their notes. and which,
through their discount business, have
the necessary machinery for increas-
ing their reserves or decreasing their
liabilities. Such a banking system
would provide the paper currency
which the American people would
rather handle in their daily transac-
tions and carry about as pocket money
than sDecie.-Iron Age.

A prominent physician says that more
than half of the car troubles from which
people suffer during the cold weather
can be traced to the habit of picking al
the ears with the finger nails or hair.
pins or some other hard substance
which initiates the delicate inside Of the
ear. Instead of this injurious picking,
the ears should be washed out with
warm water and a little good soap and
thoroughly dried after the operation. II
the ears are sensitive, little cotton may
be put in before going into the open air,
though this is apt to make them even
more sensitive. In extremely cold
weather, before venturing out u good
way to clean the ears is to wrap the
corner Of a towel around the finger, and
with little cold cream carefully wine
ont the auricle. 1t will remove every
particle Of dust and will really protect
the ears from the ooId but il can scarce
ly be recommended for regular use.

though he can distinguish the position

Is years, cannot do even that The
former, when told to open and shut his
hand in front of the excited tube, at first
declared that he could make out
changing shadow, but his failure to tell
when another persons hand made the

Believes In Arbitration Treaties, But

New York, Feb. 20.-Col. John ]. Nc
Cook touched upon the subject of the
general arbitration treaty in the course
of a speech at the annual reunion
and banquet of the Alumni associa-
ton of Lafayette college held at the
Hotel Savoy last evening. There were
about a hundred present including
Col. McCoOk, Gov. John w. Greegs, of
New Jersey; Col. c. w. Holmes, of Ell
mira; r. w. Mcintosh, Alexander Ell
lott, Jr., of New Jersey and DR.. VIM.
McMurtrie, who presided. Col. McCook
responded to the toast Our Liberties"
saying in part:
In these days of peace and arbitra-
ton treaties / do not wish to say any
thing in favor of war, but the making
of arbitration treaties will not pre-
vent nations with whom we have no
treaties from going to war. I am in
favor of arbitration, but l do not be-
lieve we can base assurance of peace
on an arbitration treaty unless our ma
ton is prepared to defend her coast
and send forth the best war vessels,
so that she may keep the treaty and
so that other nations may keep it,"
He was interrupted frequently by
college cheers, by the members of the
football team, all of whom were pres
ent. His remarks to them were in
cluded in his reference to c. A. We'll
lington, when he said: 1T is reported
that Wellington once said that the
battles of England were often lost or
won on the fields of Elton. The boys
of pre-revolutionaries had no football
team but if such an organization had
been in existence the revolution would
have been shortened from two to four
years"

sREADMAKING IN zUNl.
Peculiar Process Employed by the Pueblo
Indian Women.


During a residence at Zuni, the largest
of the Indian pueblos in northwestern
New Mexico, have often watched the
mothers and daughters of the tribe at
their interesting work of making haiwe,
or paper bread" They use a basis of
either corn or wheat, which is often
boiled in advance to make it more ten
der, and is then ground on much the
same primitive style of stone hand mill
as that used in Old Mexico. After the
maize or wheat has been once ground
through the hand mill it is passed
through the same operation at least
once more, to make it still finer, and
then it is mixed into very thin batter
in an ola, or decorated water jar. fash
Toned from clay, fired and painted by
the women pottery makers of the tribe,
who are wonderfully adept in the pot
ter's art and that of decoration in Strik-
ing yet tasteful designs.
If the flour prepared for the baking
be of wheat, the bread will be of BLUSH
tint, and if of corn, winter. While the
preparation has been made above the
wood-fed flame burning in the fireplace
of the stone or concrete house, there
has been slowly heating q slab of stone,
the upper surface of which is smooth
and oily by long use in making haiwe.
Kneeling before the hot stone when all
is ready, the INDIAN woman dips her
hand into the jar of water at her side
and then swiftly sweeps that dripping
member over the face of the tablet,
leaving broad veneer of liquid dough,
which thoroughly bakes in few sec
onds. Catching the thin edge of the
sheet of bread by the fingers of the
other hand, she then peels it almost off
the smooth stone by one deXterous jerk,
leaving one edge still attached.
Giving another sweep of her now
freshly battered palm, she joins the two
separate sheets into one by slightly
overlapping the adhering film with the
fresh application. The double operation
Of smearing and peeling continues in
swift succession, and by the method
described there is no break in the long
strip of bread, which falls In ever,
lengthening folds by the side of the
panadera as she works. A Zuni woman
takes great pride in her ability to show
the entire baking in one dnbroken
sheet, no matter how long she may con-
tfnue. When finished, the long bolt o!
bread is folded much after the fashion
of the leaves of an uncut magazine, and
is then tightly rolled, that it may MOI
dry. In this manner it is kept in a stat.
of preservation for future use, for i
is seldom baked for immediate con
sumption. This paper bread" is no
used for ordinary household purposes
but is baked when party of warrior.
or hunters is making ready for Ions
trip into the wilds, or when some one l.
