NAVAL cANTEENs FORBIDDEN.
Against Liquor Selling Aboara
Warships.

The canteen aboard ship is q thing of
the past. It never obtained strong
hold in the service. of late the only yes
sells in the navy permitting the sale Of
even beer aboard being the New York
and Indiana.
It cannot be gathered that the opera
tion of the canteen aboard these ships
has been the subject of any i'll report,
but even there the sales of beer have
been ordered stopped in the following
order, dated February 3, but just pub
lished:
"After mature deliberation the de-
partment has decided that it is for the
best interest of the service that the
sale or issue to enlisted men of malt or
other alcoholic liquors on board ships
of the navy or within the limits of naval
stations be prohibited.
Therefore, after the receipt of this
order, commanding officers and COM
mandants are forbidden to allow any
malt or other alcoholic liquor to be
sold to, or issued to, enlisted men, eth
er on board ship or within the limits of
navy yards, naval stations or marine
barracks, except in the medical depart
ment."
The order is signed by John D. Long
as secretary Of the navy.

Commander BoothJTucker. of the

year on the colony farms Of the army
has been prosperous one. and that the
results thus far Of the project Of max
ing poor people self-suppor,ing by
transplanting them to the country have
been all that was hoped for. The bene-
fciaries of the plan take kindly to it,
and the work Ii to be- extended. To
date the army has colony farms in Ohio,
Colorado and California. covering 1923
sores. and valued now at $iil.oOO. They
are tenanted by 200 colonists. and 1t il
hoped to increase this number to 500
during this year. The largest and most
ambitious of the colonies is located at
Fort Amity. Col. There settlers from
the slum districts Of eastern cities have
$40 acres Of rich land which they are
endeavoring to turn into 1O-acre farms.
Chicago and New York furnished the
emigrants, number of whom had had
experience in some sort of farming,
while a number were carpenters and
mechanics. The ground was divided
into l0-acre lots, of which each alter
nate lot was cultivated. but left unoc-
cupied. with view to the extension of
each holding should. 10 acres be insult
hcient, or relative of colonist de-
sired to settle on the next farm. The
plan adopted to make the colony self
supporting differs from that Of most
settlements. in that it involves less of
the cooperative plan. Each colonist is
master of his own domain of 10 acres,
for which he pays weekly rental of
from 81 to So for 10 years. when he will
own the land and house. Truck farm
ing will be the main support of the
colony. The land. however. is sur
rounded by thousands of acres Of open
prairie, which. for time at least. will
furnish free pasturage for stock.

applauding him wildly as he emerged
and followed his carriage for blocks.

HGreat 81 Gents Worth,

This is frequently called ..woman's
century, and the appellation becomes
significant when one considers the diff
ference in woman's position to-day
from what it was a hundred years ago.
She is rapidly becoming force in the
business world, as well as in the world
of art and letters, yet her home inter-
ests have not seemed to suffer in con-
sequence, as may be proven by the
increase in publications for the home
maker during the past few years.
The Housekeeper, established in 1877,
was one Of the first journals to recog-
nize woman's demand for periodical
devoted to progressive methods in
housekeeping. Helpful, Instructive
and progressive, has always been its
motto. 1t is thirty-six page month
ly, beautifully illustrated with half
tone plates, and full of good things
from cover to cover. It tells the home
maker how to cool, how to dress, how
to care for her babies, how to raise
flowers and chickens, and how to do
many other things, and it also keeps
her fairly well informed concerning
current events, besides giving a
large amount Of good fiction and spe-
cial articles on timely topics. Up
wards OF 100000 subscribers pro-
nounce it to be the best Of the adomes-
tic" magazines. 1t is certainly a
wonderful so cents worth.

Winter is upon us once more. The
ground is white and winters chilly
blast makes us feel like not wanting
to leave the stove but there is work
for everyone that cannot be accom-
plished by sitting by the stove; so
let us be up and doing.
The people in our community are
fairly we'll unless there is some hard
work on hand, then they are troubled
with the toothache or rheumatics.
Nearly all the young men of our
neighborhood that have been working
out are spending a vacation at home.
Messrs. Fay and Grant johnson and
Samuel Dobson all have arrived at

Look out, look out, Christmas is
near at hand, and listen! can't you

for which it is being supplied In the
southern part of the state the most
important sandstones are obtained
from Dunnyille, and from the vicinity
of Ablemans. The larger part Of
| Wisconsin is Immediately underlain
bv limestone, which extends in a
broad belt through the eastern, south
ern, and western parts OF the state
The suitability of the limestone for
building purposes differs very widely.
depending upon the locality from
which it squared.
In general ii is observed tina. Wis
consin is well supplied with an album
dance of stone suitable for nearly all
purposes Slate, onyx, and marble
are about the only stones of economic
value that are not found. It's thought
to be unnecessary to import building
monumental, or ornamental stone,
when as reliable stone can be obtained
at the same cost from quarries within
| the state. The author observes that
it is to the advantage of the people of
the state to use home products where
ever it is possible. for it is through
the Development of the natural re-
sources that the wealth of the state is
increased.
To builders and architects, The most
important. part Of the report is the
very complete and comprehensive dis
cussion of the results of the physical
tests, which are included in chapter
eight.
In the conclusion, tie author re-
views the cen tition of the quarrying
industry Of Wisconsin, ndpoints out
the factors which are necessary for its
further successful development. To
promote this end sentiment should
first be inaugurated which favors the
use Of native stone in the construction
of all buildings within the state,
where equally as good and desirable
native stone can be obtained In the
second place, the quarry operators
should carefully grade the stone
which they sell, permitting only the
use Of the best quality in positions
where inferior stone would prove dis
astrous TO the trade Third, the nat
ural competition which results in the
sale of inferior stone for better grade,
as occurred in The brownstone indus
try few years ago, should be stopped.
Fourth, the quarries should be better
and more fully equipped with machn-
cry. Fifth, and finally, the people of
the state ought to have better APP
probation of what is meant by good
building stone.
Finally, the author says that che
educational value of beautiful archi-
lecture is OF not the least Importance
to the public. Every city which owns
truly fine building gets more than
its cost in education.
The appendix on the composition
and kinds of stone, and rock struc-
lures, at the end of the report, is I'M
serted SO that those persons who esse
not familiar with the elements Of
geology, may have the data necessary
to thoroughly understand the relative
value of the different building stones,
as discussed in the first two parts Of
the report.
Following the appendix is series of
plates illustrating the results of the
! physical tests, and showing the tex
ture Of the different kinds Of building
stone. A number of plates also Illus
trate the effect of high temperature
upon the different rocks.
