was that authorizing the chair to APP
point a subcommittee to draft and
submit a currency bill TO correct the
n Gsent financial situation
The recurrence of two phases OF
the currency question marked the
conference. These were:
The creation of elasticity in tn,
currency and disposition of reserve
balances in national banks. The
committee was apparently agreed and
will sanction TO move the increased
bulk of paper money but will confire
itself TO the consideration of the hes.
means of injecting elasticity.

Nou Try His Place.

We presume that some people
think newspaper men are persistent
dunners. Let a farmer place him
self in similar position and see II
he would not do the same. Suppose
that he raises a thousand bushels of
corn, and his neighbor should come
ard buy, and the price was one dol
lar or less. and say, II will pay the
amount in few days As tho
farmer does not want co be small
about the matter, he says "All right. "
Another comes the same way, and
another, until the whole thousand
bushels Of corn is trusted TO thou
sand different people and no one OF
the different persons concerns him
self about It, for IL Is a small amount
they owe the farmer, and OF course
that will not help him any. He does
not realize that the farmer has frlt-
tered away his entire crop OF corn,
that its value Is due In a thousand
little dribbles, and that he Is seri-
ously embarrassed In his business
because his debtors treat 1t as little
matter. But IL all would pay him
promptly, which they could as well
as not. IL would be a large sum to
the farmer, and enable him 10 carry
on his business without difficulty.

Recently a baboo lawyer offered a
delicious example In his defense OF a
woman client.
She was accused OF an assault, but
he endeavored TO show that she her
self had been assaulted, and had
suffered damage of the most con
spicuous feature of her countenance.

from a teapot thinks TO browbeat me

GETTING EVIDENCE.
Injured Husband Also Got Away With
Butter and Eggs.

+. Augustus Heinze at dinner in
Butte praised a Western orator.
AT the start" said Mr.. Heinze.
"this man secures the sympathy of
nis audience. To secure sympathy at
the start is very often the secret Of
success.
There was. for instance, dis
tracted fellow who entered a grocer's
shop and said
"'I believe am an injured hus-
band. sir. and | desire to verify my
suspicious by watching house in the
next street. But | can do this safely
only from the rear of your shop. VIII
YOU be good enough to let me sit by
the open window there for half an
hour
THE grocer. patting the mans
shoulder in kindly fashion, said:
ITO be sure. my friend. Make
yourself at home, and good luck to
you
Some time passed Then the
jealous husband rushed through the
shop. rolling his eyes and muttering:
"I'll kill her! I'll go home and
get the gun and kill her now
"'Your wife, asked the grocer.
Eyes" groaned the man. My
false wife, my adored May. | cannot
doubt her guilt, and before sundown
shall be a murderer
THE grocer tried to detain him,
but he got away. Nothing happened
in the way Of murder for an hour or
more, and then, little disappointed
and suspicious, the grocer made an
investigation I'm the back of the shop.
to find that there had been passed
out through the open window three
tubs of butter, crate of eggs. two
bags Of flour and a dozen hams. -

Biouse Waist.

The blouse that can be worn over
any pretty separate yoke or guimpe
as liked is one Of the novelties OF
the season that has been very heartily
accepted, and which has extended
vogue. Here is one that is adapted
both To the entire gown and TO the
separate waist and that appropriate
terlal and 81 little later of the pretty
washable stuffs. In this instance it
is made with three-Quarter sleeves
and the material is taffeta trimmed
with soutache braid and French
knots and edged with velvet banding.
But the trimming as we'll as the ma
teriai depends upon individual taste
and need, and any finish that may be
liked is quite appropriate for the
prettily shaped bertha. The feature
of the waist consists of the fact that
II can be varied in a number of ways.
1t can be made either lined or un-
lined with a separate yoke, or with
a fitted lining faced to form the yoke.
or il can be worn over any entirely
separate waist that one may possess.
Also the sleeves can be either in
three-quarter or full length.
The waist is made with front, backs
and bertha. The front and backs are
tucked at their upper edges and the
bertha is arranged over them. The
moderately full sleeves are arranged

Philadelphia Record, the aggregate
value OF animals on farms has in
creased enormously in seven years.
The increase is due both TO greater
numbers and 20 higher values per
head. I'm horses this per capita in
crease Is especially great In spite OF
the extensive use of trolley cars and
automobiles. The average value per
horse was $I4.G1 seven years ago.
and is now reported TO be $93.5l.
The value OF all horses Is more than
three times as great as IL was in
1900. The increase I'm value in seven

 Alfalfa; 1.70 acres: This was sown May lS I905s yielding three cuttings of about five tons of clean hay the first season. During the sec ond season, covered by this Timely Hint there were seven cuttings with total of about 2O tons of hay. The only cash outlay was $224l for irrigating water. The labor re- Quired was, mans time, 14 days and team nine days, which is rather high labor require ment for this alfalfa on account of the small size of the field under consideration, and linn ited use of machinery. This crop at g co to SlO.0O a ton, loose, which has been the price this season, represents a cash return of not less thar Sl20.0O for the crop; but this hay was used to feed the team employed on the place. proving to be more than sufficient for that mains at the end of the season.

 The amount of labor required for the crop itself was about lo working days, with team l1a days. The .seSbania used as green IrranrEr- ing on the west half of the potato ground was given l7 ifFigations. Bermuda grass, more over, fiourished beneath the sesbania to such an extent as subsequently, to require 9 days labef for cleaning up the .f5acres so fertiliZed. Although the larger part of the crop came from the sesbania fertiliZed portion of the pO- tatOeS, this methOd of enriching the soil proved very costly, 2 days mans time and 3 days teamwork being required to pat She SeS- bania under and afterwards get rid Of tsfe Bermuda grass. Nevertheless, the labor en- tailed could easily have been managed by a careful farmer, as the Bermuda digging was done in January when other work was not urgent.
