Sinbad has an American Won
der Lemon plant in the green
house upon which are three
lemons. The plant was sent to
him by a friend in New York.
The lemons are very large and
weigh about pound each. When
our sailor friend pointed them out
to us recently we supposed that he
was spinning one of his seafaring
yarns, and we failed to "sit up"
and take notice. In fact, we pre-
snmed that, he had found a few
old footballs and had them painted
for our special benefit. "Footballs!'
said he, in amazement. ''They
are nothing of the kind. Each
one of them weighs a pound,
and each of them will make a
barrel of lemonade" IF we have
been correctly informed the prob
abilities are we will have some
lemonade next Fourth of July.

Inspect the TWine Plant.

Senators S. G. Pemberton, G. P.
Gardner, D. A. Campbell, Carl
Mueller and II. K. Galpin, and
Mr.. A. w. McIntire. of Illinois,
were here last Friday inspecting
the prison Irvine plant, in the hope
that their state may be able to
install similar plant so their con-
victs will be given employment.
At the present time the Illinois
convicts are practically in idleness.
"We are against the prison labor
problem said one of the senators
in reply to a question as to the
object of their visit. eve have
800 idle men prisoners besides
800 women. There are 1,4OO at
Joliet, LOO at Chester, and 1000
at the reformatory. They have
been idle since last July with very
little to do except parade about
the grounds for exercise.
"Two years ago our legislature
was foolish enough to pass a law
which provides that convicts shall
not be employed at contract labor.
Now we don't know what to do
with such large number of men.
Some are making clothing for the
state institution inmates but we
can make enough of 1t in month
to last year. Some are knitting
socks and other work that keeps
them busy only a few weeks in
the year.
The senate committee that visi-
ted the prison here was investigat-
ing the details of the binder Irvine
plant and the method of making
sales. They were greatly pleased
with what they saw and what
Warden Wolfer told them.
The opinion was expressed by
members of the committee that
their state would establish binder
Irvine plant on large scale. In
maklngl sales they would not be
confined to Illinois farmers but
sell to the country at large. One
of the senators said that the Min
nesota binder Irvine factory is
famous over the world and the
particular object in the committee
coming here was to learn some-
thing of the details before proceed
ing to establish a plant in Illinois.
