THE MACCABEEs
Interest IN the Proposed Raising of the
Rates of the Order

Considerable interest is felt in tb;c
vicinity, as elsewhere, as To tho o,,t
come of the discussion over the nrn-
posed increasing of the rates nv The
Knights of the Maccabees. the Snnren,o
Tent of which is now in session in ~
troit, Mich. \ prominent memb.r ~
kennebeo Tent of this city stated -
the Journal that while the mater migh,
be discussed more or less at tho ,,,aa.
ing of the national organization. he di1
not believe That the proposed change
would be made, and asserted that h.
was firm in the belief that the rates
were high enough at present to answer
the needs OF the order. He said that if
such a step Wds taken it would result
in great dissatisfaction among members
Of the order
one Of the causes of dissatisfaction
raised by members Of the order in Soma
sections of the State is the manner or
representation of the local tents at tho
national meetings of the order. Tho
present membership of the Knights of
tho MaccahCeS Of the world is nearly
50n0 members. While this is alleged to be
bad enough in the eyes of the rank and
file of the membership. the fact that all
the officers, elective ana appOntive. are
members of the Supreme tent by virtue
If their office. regardless of whether
they are regularly elected or not
makes the present form of government
accordin" to some members, less
representative and more omen
to criticism. The present Supreme tent
consists of 81 members, of which on
ly % arc elected. while 33 serve and vote
by virtue of their office. Eight of the
3S have two votes EACH and it is de-
clared that probably Il majority of the
33 representatives who are elected are
state commanders or deputies. who are
under salary to the Supreme Tent. In
commander and record keeper must be
both under the laws of the order, be
chosen as representatives.
The present Supreme Tent review of
Detroit has brought to that city a
great many members of the order. who
are not only bitterly opposed to the pro-
| posed increase of rates at the present
time. but insist upon change in the
laws which will make the Supreme Tent
| representative in fact. These protest.
ents have organized and elected ]. r.
| Greater Of Cleveland Ohio, as presi-
dent, ana presented Il remonstrance to
the Supreme Tent. All of their meet
ings hay" been largely attended.

The close atmosphere caused by our

the breeding of inf1nitesinlal germs
which dig into the scalp and thrive on
the sap of the hair-root.

aged by mechanical methods. During
the last three months one of our man
ayers has saved a crop which was very
seriously infested with the hopper by
turning his fume water into the fields
and at the same time forcing growth
by the use of fertilizers and abundant
cuItivation,-tI1is on fields that were
not properly laid out for irrigation, and
with a decidedly insufficient supply of
water if if had been used in the volume
considered necessary on irrigated
plantations.
Another active measure even more
radically at variance with established
custom, one that has been suggested as
entirely feasible on certain plantations,
is TO plant early and harvest the crop
at the end of twelve months. It Is
generally recognized that young plant
cane and young ratroons suffer less
from the hopper than cane that has
commenced TO make joints or than
that which is nearly mature. The in
sect likes best the cane with the most
sugar in it Early harvesting would
undoubtedly IN some instances forestall
losses that would occur we're the cane
allowed to go to its fun maturity, be-
cause the hopper season or the season
during which this insect causes the
greatest injury is towards the end of
winter, from January TO April.
These are all active measures. and
70 employ such is not necessarily to
confess ignorance for only by effort
to overcome obstacles can there be any
advance.
Not all of these active measures are
applicable to every plantation Each
manager has his own problems which

to make further advance in the grow
ing of cane or any other crop in these
islands there must be effort on the part
of the planter No man should fold
