There are not few troubles con-
nected with farming under an irrigat-
ing system. 1t is no such picnic as It
Is often represented to be. There is the
partial or entire failure Of the water
supply and the monopoly Of what wa
ter there may be by those who have
the prior right up the stream; then
there are many places where irrigation
develops 80 much alkan IN the soil as
to make It utterly worthless for the
purposes OF cultivation. The truth Is
that we get only the rosy side Of this
method Of farming

A CATHOLIC HoHENzoLLERN.

Prince William of Hohenzolern, the new chief
of the Catholic and non-reigning branch of that
Hohenzcllern dynasty which occupies the throne
of Prussia, boast of having, like his father
declined crown For whereas the late Prince Leo
pold who has just been laid to his last rest refused
III 1870 the proffered throne OF Spain in the vain
hope of averting the war of France with Germany
Prince William may be said to have rejected in
the same way the prospect of becoming king of
Roumania. In 1885 he was elected heir apparent
to the crown of his uncle, King Charles of Rou-
mania, and took up his abode at Bucharest as crown
prince But after a years experience of the life
he made up his mind that he would prefer to- be
prince of Hohenzollern in Germany to crown
prince or even king in Roumania, and so surren-
dered his rank heir apparent to his younger bro
Their, Ferdinand who is now the crown prince of
Roumania
Prince William, who has already strong strain
of French blood in his veins through his grand
mother, Stephanie de Beauharnais the adopted
daughter of the first Napoleon, is married to prin-
cess of the historic house of Bourbon daughter of
that Prince Louis who was the younger brother of
Francis Ii, last king of Naples. Princess William
OF Hohenzollern's mother. the now widowed Prin-
cess Louis of Bourbon, Countess TRAM, is one of
the only two surviving sisters of the late empress
of Austria

The sToRY oE OUR FLAG.

When the colonies of Plymouth and Connecticut
joined forces under the name of the United Colo
mics of New England, against the French, Dutch
and Swedes, the King of England pleased to
give them flag called "the Kings standard
This league soon adopted flag of It's own. This
had the cross of ST. George in one corner, and
sphere, signifying the New World, in one of the
other corners.
This flag was followed by others One of these
had white ground green pine-tree in the CENTER
and {he motto, appeal to Heaven" Another one
had seven red and six white stropes with rattle
snake stretched diagonally across it, and bearing
the words, Don't tread on me-"
Under this latter standard the Continental sol
diers fought at Trenton and at Princeton.
In January, 1915, over the camp of the patriot
army at Cambridge was hoisted the union flag of
the colonies The crosses of England and Scotland
had place in the upper left hand corner, while the
field consisted of 13 bars, red and white alternately
This banner, called the Grand Union flag, was
made by order of congress.
On June IA, 1777, stars took the place of the
crosses The idea of the stars probably taken
from Washington's coat of arms, which was of two
horizontal stripes over which were three stars and
on the top eagle This is the resolution that was
adopted:
Resolved That the flag of the thirteen United
States be thirteen stripes alternate red and white;
that the Union be thirteen stars in blue field, rep
resenting constellation
In 1874, when Vemontfand Kentucky joined the
Union, two stripes and two more stars were
added to the flag.
The standard of Is stripes and 10 stars was used
for "A years. Under it was fought the pirates of
Algeria and the war of 1872
But on April 4, 1918, congress finally decided to
reduce the stripes permanently to 10, but to put
white star in the blue field in the upper left-hand
corner for every state admitted into the Union.

Grade Guilds in the
Golden Hge Of Labor
BY John J. sealin.
(COntinuedO

(ContinQed.)
At the time Rome was about to fall there came
into the world the great st. Benedict destined to
be the founder and master spirit of body of
monks who were to convert Europe to Christian
ity and bring the blessings OF Its civilization all
over that continent.
The first great lesson he taught the world was
the dignity that the Christian Church bestowed
upon labor. To labor was no longer the badge of
slavery, for it part of the written constitution
of his order that physical labor was to move side
by side with prayer and religious exercises. Ito
labor is to pray" was their motto. The laborer
was no longer to be the despised creature that he
was in Pagan Rome The priest who stood at the
altar was the intimate associate of the monk whose
mission it was to teach mankind the arts necessary
to Chrictian civilization. Every monastery was
a great trade school in which were taught the va
rious arts and handicrafts, husbandry first, be-
cause man had to be taught how to subdue the soil
to seed it. to cultivate crops to harvest them when
ripe to store them away that there would be food
for sustenance and support during the season when
the earth was at rest. The monks were the first
scientific farmers known to Europe.
Not only were men taught trades and handl-
crafts but when they were gifted by nature to step
higher in the realms of human effort they were
fitted for every walk of life.
The world has never been so indebted to any
other body of men as the ilustrious Order of the
Benedictines
Around the monastery grew the hamlet, which in
turn became town and eventually a city. The
tradesmen were brought together i'll confraternites
out of which grew the great trade guilds of the
Middle Ages Man is a social being. By natural
law he will commune with his fellows. SO by nat
ural lay the rude child of the forest gravitated to
the monastery. There his curiosity was aroused;
new force took possession of him. The life he
saw fascinated him, and we soon find him added to
the number of those who led captive by the
gentle sovereignty of the Christian religion. al
most by natural law he adopted the trade of his
choice, and under the tutelage of the monks soon
became master of its details.
The people around the monastery began to grow

soon laid; rules and regulations were promulgated

CASE OF LoCKJAW CURED.
New Method of Administering Antitoxin
 a Triumph of Medicine.

Of unusual interest, says the New York Sun, is the report from the Harlem hospital that a patient of that institution, a boy seven years old, who came there suffering from lockjaw, has been cured. The secret of the cure, as il appears. lies in the fact that the tetanus antitoxin was injected, not in those parts of the body where subcutaneous injections are commonly made, but directly into the spinal column-a method of treatment which proved successful, also, in the case of another patient of the same hospital last summer.
 It k scarcely more than year ago that tetanus became known general ly as germ disease, that is, one which Is curable by the administration of 2 proper serum. Then came the diff fculty of finding such d serum. In January last, the doctors al the St. Francis hospital, in Trenton. an
 nounced that they had hit upon the desired remedy,.and in proof of their assertion they called attention to the case of victim of lockjav in it's worst form who had been restored to health after having received four in jections of the new serum. Natural ly, therefore, this hospital in Tren- ton was looked upon as sort of a Mecca for lockjaw sufferers from that time on. Thephysicians at the Harlem hospital declare that the new method of administering the serum practically solves the mystery of lock- jaw, scourge much greater in fact than the general public imagine.

UNDER HIS COAT.
Plumber Could Make Pan as We'll as
 "Wipeo a Joint.

Not long since=some plumbers were sent out to do a job at the house of a. south siGe resident who was pro- nounced prohibitioni@t. says the Mil waukee Sentinel. II was the boastof this man that there had never been a drop of liquor in his house. Imag- inc the horrors of the situation when the workmen. following their usual custom. began rushing the can to and from a neighboring saloon. A mem- Der of the family kept tab on thenum- Der of times these men sent for beer and reported to the head of the house when he returned in the evening that Il cans of beer had crossed the thresh- old of his home that day.
 He immediately called upon the boss plumber and informed him thar he would not permit such conduct and insisted that he instruct his men that they must not drink beer in his house.
 The next morning the men report ed as usual at the office before going to work and were told lhlA must .caye their cans in the shopwhiIe they were working on the prohibitionist's job. They acquiesced apparentlyan and pick ing up their tools started out. 0neof the men had, however, put his can in- side the breast of his coat and while 1t was flat il caused the garment to stick out in noticeable way.
 As he started out the door, the boss plumber noticing the peculiar lump. said: "What is the matter, Pat, have you tumor?"
 "No,9 replied Pat 1lit's : cancer" ]"

QUEER NEWSPAPER MAN.
ais Home Address a Mystery Fooled His
 Fellow Reporters.

Fellow Reporters.
 "One of the queerest newspaper men ever knew, ; said a veteran news gatherer, of the Milwaukee Sentinel, to bunch of cronies d a lunch eoun- ter the othernight. was Scotehman named-well. We llleaye out the name, for he Is still alive and well. We'll identify him as John. He was graduate of Edinburgh university and had worked on Edinburgh, Glas- gov and London papers before he finally foated across the big pond. Eventually he dritted to Buffalo, where he alternately worked on the two principal morning dailies.
 John was a good newspaper man, put although he was jolly good fellow no one really could understand him. His past was mystery which no one had ever been able topenetrate. The strangest thing about John was that ne had no home address.
 No one knew where he lived When the directory canvasser came around in the springJ John lodged him as religiously as he would a creditor Consequently all that appeared in the directory for years was: John k--, reporter. W. 250 Main street.
 This was eXasperating 10 thenews- paper crowd. The men burned with a great desire to uncover Johns place of residence Early one morning as he sauntered iauntily up the street two of his fellow workers decided to follow him. He led them long chase. Out in the suburbs John dis covered that he was being shadowed, :, so hedodged into q hallway and when his followers came 10 the spot he stepped out and bade them a good morning.
 An! on your way home, per ceive. You live long ways out, said John. sarcasticaIly.
 ,Well-Yes-er-we do. lamelv replied one of the fellows.
 Going my WaY:=I live just a teetle ways down tbestreet, said John.
 Why, yes, We are, Was the re- spon>e.
 So they all trudged along. The district was q fineone, with handsome houses and d little too high toned fer l person in John circumstances Ar irving in front of large brick resi- dence, John turned 10 the two men and cooIly said:
 Gentlemen, l bid you goodnight. This i> where l liYe
 Then he stepped briskly around to the rear of the house. while his companions stood dumbfounded and unable 10 move. When they regained their wits they sneaked around the house just in time 10 see John vault the feEce and make his way 10 the next street They hurried around the block. but John had disappeared for the night.

JOKE WAS TOO REALISTIC.
Comedian Himself Fooled When He
 Thought to Fool the Audience.

The properties that are used on ne burlesque stage are not always coun- terfeit, although there is a popular idea that stage whisky Is generally cold tea, that stage butter is thick mixture ofyelloW corn meal and water and that stage milk is never anything but chalk and water. The people in the front TOW of local theater re- gently had it demonstrated to them that the milk used in bottle had once been'the real thing, and they had req son to regret that the property man had not followed the usual rule of manufacturing the article out of chalk and water
 The comedian had been in the habit ofdoinga an effective bit ofacting with a large rag baby dressed up to re- semble real child, and baby snurs- ing bottle filled with a substance re- sembIing milk. No one in tlq ,ati- eHee thought twas milk and lois4er did the comedian himself He had been handling the bottle for weeks and had not noticed that thecorkWas getting loose. Several nights ago 1t occurred 10 the comedian that he could make his part funnier by let ting the cork out of the bottle and al- lowing some of the milk 10 escape as hewent through his.usual motions in extracting laughter from the crowd.
 The comedian Was much more sue cessful than he haG arxidea heWouId be. for when the cork came out of the bottle q considerable amount of itz contents came also. iH chunks. and with an odor which Was stronger even than thaGof Iimburger cheese. The comedian lodged back from the stage as quickly as possible. his hand to his nose. and the =choru, girls carefully avoided the spot oH tbe stage where the milk had fallen. Al soon as the comedian had finished lis part he made beeIine forthe property mar in the wings, who wa> responsible fo1 tle contents of the bottle
 Why didn't you teil me that you had real miIk=in t6at. bottle2 de- manded the comedian. indignantly
 Because. 1 never thought you'd be fool enough 10 let the cork out. said the property man with equal heat Il filled that bottle with milk when Be were at Buffalo. eight weeks ago. and ii would have done vel enough if you'd only had sense enough 10 keep the cork in. Of course. you can't ex- pect milk to keep sweet bottled up for eight weeks. and nobody but thick headed Irish comedian would expect il. I've got 10 go and buy another pint of milk now 10 fill mp that bottle with. and thiszshoW ain [ making any too much money anyway Its idiots like you who spoi. the properties in shows and break them up in busi- neas.
 Theanswer ofthepropcrty man for the time being completely squelched the unfortunate comedian. and hcin- vardly resolved 10 investigate all properties before he attempted to in- troduee any originality into the act he had been performing for T. years- Milwaukee Sentinel
