POWER IN POLITICS.
COIoradO's Most Influential Machine
Manager Is n Society Beauty
as Well.

Colorado-that superb state in the
heart of the Rocky mountains where
American women have attained their
highest standing, as the equals of the
sterner seX-where woman suffrage
has been one of the most powerful
agents of their glories in
the possession of a woman, who apart
from her statesmanlike knowledge
and unusual political ability, enjoys
the distinction of being the most
beautiful woman in the common
wealth.
She is Mrs. Samuel Bedford, of Den
yer, and she is not only recognized as
a social political leader, but has been
endowed with the distinction of being
the most popular woman in Colorado.
Mrs. Belford, says the Philadelphia
Press, dispenses political honors with
the same tact and ease as she exhibits
within the precincts of her own home.
She has recently been made president
of the woman's state campaign COM

BEDROOM VENTILATION
1t Is as Essential in Winter ms 1t Is
an Summer and Should Not Be
Neglected.

Do not forget, says Good House
keeping, that fresh air is as neces-
sary in winter as in summer. The
old method of actually mailing up
the windows for the winter has, hap
PLY, gone out of fashion, along with
the feather bed, now so seldom
found, even in the homes of the coun-
try residents, where once it reigned
supreme. Whether the windows are
hung on weights or not, they should
be made to open from both top and
bottom at all seasons of the year.
1t is well to have bedroom doors
fit closely, so that drafts will not
strike the feet while undressing; and
low chair or box is very convenient
to use while putting on shoes. If
the top of a small box is hinged and
the box covered with pretty creton,
it may be also utilized for keeping
small articles in, and will be also
quite ornamental. If gas is left
burning through the night there is
danger. Naturally, the gas is turned
low, and, as frequently occurs Ee-
tween midnight and morning, a cur
rent may be turned off for minute,
when, of course, the blaze goes out.
Presently the flow of gas returns,
and there is an escape. If gas must
be used, warm the chamber thor
oughly before bedtime. Ventilate
by windows. slightly opened at the
top, then trust largely to the heat
furnished by extra bedclothing. With
proper management gas stove or a
gas log may be run at small expense.
1t is hard to teach people that a
moderate amount of gas gives quite
as much warmth after a room has
been heated to a certain tempera-
ture, as if turned on at full blast.
Never allow gas to burn air." as the
escaping noise is called when it flares
at the highest point. There is less
heat given out from it then than if
it were turned lower.

HOMEMADE BROODER.
Raising Chicks without Hen Is Not
Only a Pleasant But Profitable
Occupation.

The beginner will be surprised to
find how easy it is to make brooder.
Buy one of those little oil stoves at
the store, and the whole job is done in
a few hours. 1t is easy to operate, not
nearly so much bother as SO many
hens. The chicks are by themselves in
roomy building. A sketch of the
brooder is given herewith. The brood
err platform occupies one side of the
building. The brooder is about three
feet square. The board top, which is
supported by the wooden pins passing
tightly through holes bored in the cor
ners, is represented as transparent in
order to show the four three-inch
pieces of inch iron pipe beneath.
These pipes pass just through the
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1903-04-09

floor of the platform to the under side,
but project two inches above, as
shown.
Under the platform is a three-foot
square or iron, heated by the lamp
placed directly under it. Thus the
heated air which comes through the
pipes and warns the chicks is not
from the lamp direct, but from the
warmed sheet iron. AS the chicks
grow larger, the pegs are driven fur
Their through the cover, making it
higher. The warm air is kept in by
of the cover. While the chicks are
young they should be kept from fly
ing off the platform by a board bar
rier along the edge (not shown in the
drawing). A regular brooder lamp is
best. The smallest oil stoves or any
good lamp that will burn clearly with
out top draft will answer.
The chicks will not do so well in
doors after the first three weeks. No
matter if the weather is damp and
chilly. While it is cold or stormy keep
them indoors nights, but make a good
long outside run of fine netting, or
laths with board at the bottom. Old
buildings become infested with nits of
lice and the brooder heat brings them
out in swarms along the cracks and
corners in and near the brooder Kero-
sene will soak them out. Clean the
house and keep the brooder clean
Lice cannot live long in a clean, dry
place.
Feed fine, mixed grain in gravel and
let them scratch. Meat, green stuff
and gravel are needed from the first.
They will pick up the fine grit and
struggle over lettuce leaf or a bit of
meat almost as soon as they can stand.
Meat is half their food in a state of ma
ture, and to grow fast they must have
it unless there is plenty of milk. The
experiment stations find that chicks
and ducklings grow as fast again when
fed with plenty of animal food The
growth costs only half as much per
pound as compared with all-grain diet.

CHARMING PRINCESS.
Pretty Daughter of the House of
Reuss to Marry Grand Duke of
Saxe-Weimar.

Caroline Elizabeth Ida, of Reuss,
is really pretty-even if she is a
princess-and she is about to marry
young Grand Duke Wilhelm Ernst, of
SaXe-Weimar, who is highly inter-
esting on two counts. First, he is
said to be one of the richest rulers
in Europe, although he is scarcely
more than boy; and, second, he is
heir to the throne of Holland as long
as Queen Wilhelmina has no chill
dren. The grand duke doesn't like
the idea of being a Dutch king, and
has said he wouldn't be one, whether
or no. The prospect of being a
queen may, however, appeal to the
chosen bride, and alter the situation
Anyway, the twain are an important
pair. The princess, who is only IS,
has sturdy, independent blood in her
veins, and comes from one of the

Alfalfa is not a difficult crop to
raise, being sown in the spring. The
preparation and seeding are done in
the same manner as for wheat or
oats. Only one crop can be secured
the first year, and that is not always
good one, but once started there is
no limit to the time it will thrive and
produce. 1t sends its roots down to
moisture, ten or more feet below the
surface, and is little influenced by
climatic conditions, which every
where have bearing on every other
crop. The effect on the soil has been
fully demonstrated by blowing up the
alfalfa and sowing to other crops
corn, wheat, potatoes. The increased
yield of these crops is phenomenal,
showing that the alfalfa roots have
nourished the soil.-Midland Farmer.

How They Sized Him I'm.

1t was in a mission Sunday school,
far over on the east side of New York,
and the brisk young clergyman from
Chicago was about to make brief ad-
dress. His smile was as complacent
as ingratiating, and he began with an
adroitness las he supposedly of exor-
dunn which would have left Quintilian
speechless with wonder and envy:
"Well, children, l guess none of you
know where L came from" His own
ingenuity warmed his heart, as he saw
visions of his stockyards stories to
come. But he promptly got a cold
douche. "Oh, yes, we dol" spoke up

mittee. Any candidate for public Office
this earnest and capable young per-
son as well as the sterner machine
leaders, for she controls hundreds of
votes.
She says that she regards politics as
a sacred duty, and she uses her infiu-
ence to further reform politics. When
it is taken into consideration that all
kinds of dispositions are to be dealt
with by one young woman whose
worldly experience has been confined
to the schoolroom, the home society,"
the results she is said to accomplish
are somewhat remarkable.
Mrs. Belford is a direct descendant
of Ethan Allen. of revolutionary fame,
and comes naturally by her patriotic
enthusiasm.
Whenever political questions were
discussed she entered into them with
zeal. She came naturally to taking
an active interest in the prac teal work
of politics, while gracefully receiving
her coterie of fashionable friends in
her drawing-rooms.
Aside from being the leader of the
women's political machine" which
is fourishing in Denver, her fashiona-
BILE friends who have not the slight
est leaning that way declare she is
the most wholesome lesson that could
possibly be held up to the notice Of
the enemies of woman suffrage.
She has introduced William j. Bryan
and other speakers as distinguished
to an audience that packed the large
Broadway theater from pit to dome.
This event was a noteworthy one in
the life of the feminine political lead
er. The distinguished apostle of free
silver came upon the platform escort
ed by Mrs. Bedford, and paid her an
eloquent tribute from the stage.
Mrs. Belford has always lived in
Denver. She came to the state when
she was five years old with her parents
from Council Bluffs, Ia. With the man
who is now her husband and the SON
of Hon. j. B. Bedford, she was gradu-
ated with honors from the Denver
high school. Three years afterward
they married.
Hon. j. B. Belford was among the
last of the territorial judges of Colo
RADIO. For ten years he represented
the state in congress, in which branch
of the national notwithstanding to
his indomitable will and marked per-
severing individuality-he earned the
title of "Red-headed Rooster of the
Rockies" This dignity, with the Jr.
added, has recently descended to his
son.
When Mrs. Belford's husband was
nominated for the legislature, the
beautiful young society leader very
naturally bent all her efforts to Sc
cure the election of his ticket. Her
victory in this instance caused strong
minded women throughout the coun-
try to regard her as one of their most
powerful allies.
Mrs. Belford is not yet 30 years old,
and her recent triumphs, and with the
political honors she has lately had con-
ferred upon her, have caused her to be
marked as one of the most celebrated
women in the Centennial state.
