Baroness Burdett-C -COuttS 90
Years Old Today
A Long Life Devoted to
Practical : hilanthrOpy

London. April 2l.-Today the mil.
lionaire philanthropist Baroness
BurdettCoutt entered her goth year,
having been born April 81. 1914. She
has completely recovered from her
serious illness of year ago and there
is no apparent reason why she should
not live for a number OF years yet.
as she comes from family noted for
its longevity.
Slxty-fve years devoted untiringly
to the distribution of vast fortune
for the benefit OF the poor-that is the
remarkable record OF this remarkable
woman. She began her active philan.
throplc work when she was but 20
years old Her inheritance OF nearly
10000 600 was bequeathed to her by
her step-grandmother the wife OF Mr..
Coutts the banker. one of the most
active lieutenants Of the Baroness.
and quite her most important adviser,

gether the two visited the wretched
dens and planned wholesale reforms
one of the first things accomplished
was TO demolish a low den of thieves
and murdorers In Bethnal Green, and
erect In It's stead blocks OF model
dwellngs-the baroness was really
the pioneer OF the model dwellings In
London-with every accommodation
in the shape OF laundry, baths. etc,
and good library and reading room.
When the weayers were absolutely
starving for want OF work Lady Bur.

cipal supporter OF an association
which had been formed for the relief
OF the sufferers. Some OF them were
started in small businesses. younger
ones were trained for useful employ.

opened at which women OF all ages
were received.

since the Baroness took for a help

COMBINING AGAINST AMERICA.

The proposition b. Count Won Sch
weriD Loewit Of the German reich
stag fer the formation CT European
union against the enCi uachme1t 81
American competition indicates that
the foreigners are seriously alarmed.
Having lost liberal proportion CT
their foreign trade, they now fear that
the American manufacturers will
drive them out of their own homo
markets. 1t is doubtful if the alliance
can be formed. but the fact that it Is
being considered indicates that the
Europeans consider the situation Sc
riCus.
1t is a common understanding that
necessary articles are very much
cheaper in almost any European cOl,1.-
try than in the United States. Yet We
find American manufacturers layfns;
their products down throughout Ed
rope for less money than the same ar
tices are produced and sold for on
the ground In many instances AM
ercan made goods are sold more
cheaply in Europe than they are here.
Discussing the matter, the Count
says:
The unequal competition Ct the
nOn-European product is growing
UdlIN, OWlIS 10 the NIHIlEtlIDl Ill tIt
expense in transportation from the
nOn-EurCDaan countries. especially
America and the British colonies. " : =
A coalition Of the European countries
is absolutely necessary The efforts
in this connection have failed hitherto
because ne European country wishes
to abandon its independence in this
field in favor of such a union and be
Il To . nfr,
mon tariff
The difficulty would appear almost
insuperable, but a way out is recon-
mended. Count Won Schwcrin Loewitz
suggests that lin concluding CONNER
cial treaties among the European
states a clause be introduced whereo,
goods exported from one country to
another shall enjoy special low duties.
which shall not be applied to the same
goods coming from non-European
countries" This would practically
amount to a tariff on goods made in
this country and a wal of the tar
iff on goods mad i, Europe.
The trouble about such an agree
ment is TIT it I'D never be en-
forced. The Ecc.,.e Of Europe are
obliged to have our manufactured
goods and cur surplus agricultural
products. The time has come when
they cannot live without them, and
regardless of the welfare Of their own
manufacturers. they arc going to buy
American made goods.
An interesting feature of the Count :
talk is his statement relative to the
reduction in freight rates. Apparent
ly even without any ship subsidy pay

willing to take their wares to eve.s
country on the habitable globe.

system of cooperation, aided, fostered

system of cooperation, aided, fostered and encouraged by the General Gov ernment, and then let tie people of the country express themselves in favor of the plan, and you will find that Congress and the Constitution will be not against but for it. What mem- bers of Congress want is an expression from their constituency showing what is desired in the several districts. There are many rural districts that have no great rivers, or great harbors, or great cities which entitle them to public buildings, but there is no dis trict but that has many miles of public roads that need to be permanently inn proved. Let the people ask for it and they will receive the assistance which they desire and deserve.
 It is a remarkable fact that the United States Government has already appropriated million dollars to Porto Rico for road building, and another million to the Philippine Islands; and the Secretary of War has just made an appeal to Congress through the Presi- dent of the United States, who strong ly endorses that appeal, to have three million dollars appropriated for the use ot the Philippine Government. The following is quoted from Secre- tary Roots letter:
 "Previous experiences indicate that such an appropriation could be made the most useful by giving the Philip pine Government discretion to apply it in such proportions as they deem wise in tie direct purchase and distribution or sale of supplies, or through the em- ployment of labor in the construction of Government wagon roads, railroads, or other public works"
Holbrook argus., 1903-01-31
Irrigation

Irrigation must rot be neglected
 now no matter how inconvenient it
 may be, should the ground show the
 least indication of dryness. Where cultivation has been deep and persis-
 tent the ground is in fine condition as to moisture. The trees do not require as much as in the growing months of summer and early fall, but they must
 be well supplied for if they are not,
 when it comes a drying mortimer it will pinch and dry up the leaves and make the trees look sick. It may also cause mottle leaf for another season, and this lack of water never be sus- pected as the cause of it. It must not be forgotten too that frost always takes a worse hold on dry free than on one that is not suffering for lack of moisture in the soil Don't be afraid to irrigate if necessary. Where green crop for turning under is in the or chard or where the natural vegetation is left for the same purpose, 1t is more than likely that it needs to be irri- gated This can be easily told by try ing the soil with a spade. If it goes down easily there is no need for irr;ga- tion, but if at all hard and dry irrigate at once. As soon as warm sunshine comes and drying winds prevail, a green crop tends to keep moisture m the soil, and bare, hard surface had a hard struggle to resist giving up it's moisture unless thoroughly pulverized to depth of five or six inches.
