"What should a woman do to be
successful? Speaking in plain, every
day English, should say that for one
thing, she ought to be able to cook.
Yesterday at the dedication of the
Dometsic Economy building, l was
glad to notice the emphsis which Gov
ernor Mead used. when he spoke of
this important part of our girls educa-
ticn. They should know how to cook.
Speaking more broadly, they should
know how to care for the home. 1t is
from the home that come the men and
women who make our nation.
In one of the schools of Washing
ton, DC, small boy not long ago
wrote an essay on what he thought All
ideal girl should be like He wrote !:
She must not be gossip. She must
not be sissy. She must not be smart. ;
He used very commonplace terms, you
will notice, but they mean good deal,
and | believe that there is certain
amount of wisdom in what he wrote.
Yesterday, at the dedication ceremon-
ial, it was certainly evident, of which
| am glad, that Governor Mead and
Mrs. Allen, representing the Women's s
Federation of Clubs, of Washington,
both placed high value on the neces-
sity of girls becoming good cooks, and
good broilers. We need them in the
home.
In conclusion, let me say this: Be
true to your own ideals of what is
right, just, and correct. Do what
your hands find to do, honestly, faith
fully; and your life's work will earn
you crown of succ ass that comes only
through faithful, honest and earnest
endeavor. F"

FOR CHEAPER
GRAIN SACKS
Hopwood Gibson Discusses
Grain Sack Problem Be-
fore Farmers Union

If the outcome of the big convention
of the Farmers Union held at Pullman
this week does no more than act on the
suggestions of Hopwood Gibson, the
delegate from Ellensburg, who deliv-
cred an interesting and instructive ad-
dress on the sack question, great ben
efits will acrue to the farmers in this
section of the country, and one of the
most difficult matters that has for
years confronted the grain producers
of this entire Inland Empire will be
settled before long.
Never in the history of this section
of the country have the farmers been
able to get right down to the seat of
trouble in the matter of grain bag pur-
chases, and until Mr.. Gibson came
upon the scene, little or nothing was
known of the magnitude of the trade
in sacks other than that they came
from India and that very few people in
this part of the world knew much
about the trade. Mr.. Gibson went on
to tell of the conditions in India under
which jute, the material from which
all Calcutta sacks are made is pro-
duced. Some two million acres of
land, he explained, were under cult
walton and the average production
amounted to something over 1900 pounds
per acre, with the most primitive
manner of cultivation. Absolutely no
attempt at modern farming has been
made, and the implements in general
use are of the most rude nature.
The manner in which the iute was
raised was thoroughly brought out and
samples were shown to the large aud
|ience which showed it's appreciation of
the different points explained. The
manner in which the raw material was
brought to market was fully entered
into and when the speaker showed how
the Ganges River in India, which he
explained was about the same as the
Columbia River in this country, was
utilized to the fullest extent since the
government had spent some little
money in the matter of dredging and
other improvements, the farmers sat
up and took special notice. Sacks,
continued Mr.. Gibson. are manufac-
tured in Calcutta and sold to the eX-
porter at as low a price as four cents
apiece in large quantities, and he
promised to assist the Union in getting
all they wanted in future at a price
considerably below six cents apiece
delivered to any point in the Inland
Empire. This will mean much TO the
farmer, and now that the farmer has
a man on his side of the fence who
has spent years in India in this business
and knows the trade from start to fin
ish, new developments may be looked
for.

TAMMANY AT FAULT?
If That's Why, Remedy is Difficult,
Saws BRYAN.

Lincoln. Neb., Nov. 23.-W. j. Bryan
has written for publication in the
Commoner this dissertation on Tam
many's part in the recent campaign:
"Mr. Murphy, the head of Tam
many, says that 'Tammany did the
best it could for the Democratic ma
tional ticket. There's the rub. If
Tammany had been treacherous it
might promise to be faithful next
time, but as it did the best it could
what hope is there next time? If Tam
many did the best it could and could
not carry the city of New York for the
Democratic national ticket, several
questions arise:
"First-Was it the fault of the can
didate?
"Second-Was 1t the fault of the
platform?
"Third-Was it the fault of Tam
many?
IF the Democratic candidate was
Objectionable to Tammany, the remedy
is to nominate a candidate next time
who is satisfactory to Tammany-pro-
vided, of course, that that is all that
is necessary to insure Democratic
victory.
IF it was the Democratic platform
that was Objectionable, the remedy is
easy: Let Tammany write the next
Democratic platform - provided, Of
course, that Tammany platform will
insure Democratic victory.
But if it was the fault of Tam
many, the remedy is more difficult
How is Tammany to be reformed? If
Tammany will not support the Demo
cratic ticket and platform when the
ticket and platform are satisfactory
to the Democrats of the nation, what
is to be done?"
