and races of all sorts, have had their

vorce case on trial at the grand-stand;
or in states where capital punishment is
in vogue, have the hangings and electro
cutions the last day of the fair. The
animal, brutal and vulgar in the race
should be catered to at all hazards and
at any expense. because all such enter
tainment so help along the cause of an
improved agriculture and an ennobled
civilization.

"wanted-Girl to do Housework."

The above is wall which is going up
from all sections of the country; from
palatial city residences, from farm
homes, from all places where modern
civilization imposes upon woman a
burden of domestic and social cares
which is beyond her strength. While
there are too many school teachers, too
many typewriters, too many clerks, too
many teachers of music and art, there
is all the time an awful shortage of CON-
petent women who are willing to work
as homemakers and housekeepers. Some
say that this scarcity of domestic help
is caused by the women themselves,
who, to not little extent, place a social
ban upon the woman who cooks their
food, makes their beds and does the
family washing; others say that it is be-
cau>e woman cannot keep nice white
hands and do the dirty work of the
home; others, that the weekly wage of
the hired girl is not high enough.
One young lady tells us that the rea |
reason is, that girl fools away her
chance of making desirable matrimo-
NAL alliance when she hires out to do
domestic work. Some truth in all of
these, perhaps, with the last reason as
signed being nearer the truth than any
of the others. But no matter about the
cause, the fact remains that the help to
do house work is now, and will in the
future, be hard to get and it forcibly
suggests the plan of peoples recasting
their methods of living on simpler
plane which, from our standpoint, is
really the most sensible thing to do.
Over one half of womans burdens today
are those which society and custom
have imposed upon her. The cultiva-
ton of little womanly independence,
of don't-care-a-cent habit as to what
the woman next door thinks of your
way of doing things, would relieve many
woman of great burden, for it is true
as gospel that there is nothing on earth
woman is so mortally afraid of as an
other woman. Educate the girls that
there is no loftier or more womanly
sphere than that OF being an accom-
plished and business like home maker
and home-keeper; remove as far as
possible the social ban placed upon the
hired girl; raise her wages SO as to dig
Nifty her work; don't expect her to work
sixteen hours day, and the problem of
domestic help will settle itself.

1t has always been that laws passed
by the several states for the protection

in general contempt. No laws have

Farmers SWindled.

A platform truck scale is handy
thing to have on the farm, in the mill
or shop. Many farmers will find them
useful. But what rs the sense in pay
ing two prices for them. Mcintyre &
Harris have them for sale, and they
are both solid and nobility finished.
Their price is $500. We understand
that agents are canvaSsing the country
for the same articles, only more shah
billy finished. and are selling them at
$50 to S25. It's lamentable fact that
no class of men are more suspicious of
local dealers than farmers; and none
patronize the "far away" concerns
more than they. 1t is equally true that
no class of people afford better field
for gulling than the rural population.
And this is done in spite of the warn
ings teeming in the country newspapers.
The farmer must not forget that the
editor who publishes these warnings
is his best friend, and he does so, not
for pay, but to save honest men from
sharks
