SALOONS WILL BE BARRED.
All Ante-Quake Licenses Revoked in
San Francisco by Police
Board.

San Francisco.-EYer since the
earthquake San Francisco has been a
city without saloons.
While martial law was in force the
drinking places were closed by order
of the military commander, and viola
tons of the regulation were punished
by the bullet.
The board of police commissioners
Endorsed Mayor Schmitz's suggestion
that all licenses in existence be re-
voked. The commissioners arc a unit
in the declaration that the city will be
better off in future with fewer saloons
than before its destruction.
Mayor Schmitz goes even farther
than the commissioners. He says there
is no possibility that the liquor deal
ers will be permitted to resume bust
ness for "a long time to come"
He attributes the remarkable abb
sence Of crime from the city to the
edict against the sale of intoxicants.
Several saloon men who have been
erecting temporary quarters have been
warned that it may be a long time be-
fore they will be permitted to sell IL
q1or at all, and that licenses will eve
be SO freely issued again as in the
past.
In San Mateo, just across the border.
the supervisors recently permitted the
saloons to reopen, and drunken orgies
Immediately followed.
Chief Of Police Oman appealed to
Sheriff Mansfield to force the dealers
to close up again until conditions are
more settled, and the sheriff mas re-
piled that he will comply with the re-
quest despite the supervisors action,
even though he may be compelled to
call for state troops to aid him in en-
forcing his orders.

The results of the French elections
thus far announced give the lie once
more to the pessimistic forebodings of
the prophets Of evil, There was no
building of barricades. the forces of
disorder were apparently absent and
not accounted for and the government
will be able to reconstruct its bloc"
apparently stronger than before.
France is bigger and stronger than any
French party, however rabld. The re-
public having survived its troubled
first decades. having nearly abandoned
the old cry of revenge" against Ger
many and having rooted its power
strongly in the soil of the provinces,
is not easily overturned.

The use of wooden shoes may ex-
plain why the expectation of boots.
shoes and sole leather from the United
States to France is comparatively
small. There is, however, in addition
to the peasant class using only wood

ones and retailing at 20 to so cents a
pair. Entirely wooden shoes are

Beet Sugar Statistics.

President Roosevelt has transmitted
to congress the annual report on the
beet sugar industry Of the United
States during 1906, prepared by Charles
F. Saylor, special agent Of the depart

the acreage of beets harvested during
1905 was 3O7, 1854, with an average yield
Of SGT tons per acre. The aggregate
manufacture was 312 800 short tons, or

The Lost Hen

So far as is possible the poultry
breeder should know his number of
hens, and count them from time to
time, keeping track of the sitters, and
where they are sitting, of the hens
with chicks, the laying hens, and the
strays. There is no subject on which
it is more difficult to get exact infor-
nation than on the farm flock of poul-
try. A farmer will tell you they
keep about hundred hens" they
matched about 500 chicks" lost a
number of them from one cause or
another, sold about ten dozen, ate
about as many, and will keep about
100 hens and pullets altogether. >"
Count the hens and the number falls
short OF what he had expected, and he
says, the rest are about some place."
This Indifference as to what becomes
OF the hens when they go on the range
is expensive. A hen that steals her
nest may die on it from starvation, if
she does she is a menace to the flock
through the maggots which soon in
fest her body, and which if eaten by
fowls is apt to cause timber neck. She
may, it is true, leave her nest with
fine brood of chickens, but she may
leave a nest full of pipped eggs be-
cause one chick has Matched, and she
may leave it only when so debilitated
that she is unable to recover health
in time to be of any service as a pro-
Queer through the winter.
One per cent is low estimate of
the hens On the farm lost for lack of
missing them from the flock. How
many business men would permit
scattered about yards and houses, pos
sibly leading to an epidemic of dis
ease, and all because of the loss of
hen.

Cement for the Farm

Seventy-fve per cent of the farms
of America are a disgrace to their
owners, from the standpoint of neat
ness and appearance of the buildings
and surroundings Wooden structures
in varying stages of collapse, rotting
fence posts, inefficient watering
troughs, and floods of barns and Gel
lars all speak of decay and temper
airy use. If these farmers could be
awakened to the Importance of build
ing for all time instead of for a day,
says an exchange, the sum total of
prosperity in country life would be
UNNECESSARILY increased.
If farmers would but commence the
use of cement construction, durable

Crop Experts Figures

H. V. Jones, the Minneapolis crop
expert, in recent estimate, said
that this years winter wheat yield
will amount to 42O,0O0,OO0 bushels, the
largest on record In commenting on
the general situation he said:
"The western farmer is prosperous.
Good crops for five years have given
him a surplus. Country bank depos-
its are made up in large part of far
mers' money. In four representative

rot and fall into decay will result.
Timber is becoming scarce, stone and
brick are dear and need skilled labor
whenever they are used. Not so with
cement. This, combined with sand
and gravel, makes strong and water
proof work as well as fireproof.
1t can be used for cutters in stables,
cellar and stable floors, drain tile,
silos sidewalks, fence posts, bridges,
houses, barns, watering and feed
troughs, ice houses and cisterns.
There seems no limit to it's usefulness.
The simpleness with which it is
handled commends it to those unskill-
ed in carpentry and other trades. Any
farmer can use cement with a little
practice.-The Ideal Farmer.

the fibre of the cotton stalk is one of
the latest and most interesting inven-
tons of the new century. Not only
have the Investigations passed the
experimental stage, but they are rap
idly being shaped to be placed into
practical operation. Mr.. Jordan says
it has been unquestionably demon
strated that all grades of paper, from
the best form of linen grade to the
lowest, can be manufactured from cot
ton stalks.

Cotton Stalks for Paper Manufacture

Paper manufactured from the cot
ton stalk is of the strongest texture
and softest finish. 1t is reported that
several plants will be erected during
the next few months in certain Sec
tons of the south and will be in full
operation by January /, 1907 The
practical effect of this new invention
Mr. Jordan predicts will be to in
crease the present value of the souths
cotton crop nearly $100,000,000 annu-
ally. The bulk of the material 60
ing into the manufacture of paper
at the present time is spruce pine,
which is annually becoming more ex-
pensive owing to depletion of the for
ests. The utilization of a waste pro-
duct such as the cotton stalk, manu-
featured into commercial paper, will
be a boon of inestimable value to
the whole country. 1t will prove the
entering wedge of checking the pres
ent increasing cost of paper, which
is becoming such burden upon the
newspaper industry of the country
The new industry is also expected to
be blessing in another way, as the
removal of the cotton stalks from the
fields in the ealy fall will assist in
the destruction of the boil weevil and
will probably greatly reduce the de-
vastating influences of that insect on
the cotton crop.
Mr.. Harvie Jordan, president CT the
Southern Cotton association, declares
that the manufacture of paper from

duce 200 pounds of butter.
There is no more labor connected
with the 400 pound cows than there
is with the 200 pound cows. The
price at which butter has been cred
tied, l. e., 20 cents per pound, is the
net price from the creamery after
the making has been paid for. In
this herd the increased cost of feed
for the 400 pound cows was more
than offset by the increased amount
OF skim milk, SO we have the 200
pounds increase of butter as net pro-
ut over the 200 pound COW. Two
hundred pounds of butter at 20 is
$40. We have $500 invested in these
cows, which, at per cent interest,
is $24, which we will deduct from the
$40 and we have left SIG to the credit
of the 400 pound cow.

How many times have you sat

How many times have you felt a

you were through eating?
How many times have you felt

And how many times have you

IL is safe to say you couldn't tell
You don't keep track of those things,

to suffer them indefinitely and per-
