Winter Styles for Dogs.

The long delayed decision is made
public. An impatient public may now
wrap the drapery of its couch about
it, sustained and soothed in the know
ledge that the whole distressing bust
ness of the fashions for dogs for the
season of 190S-19O9 has been settled.
1t is Just off the press
The styles for dogs clothes are fix
ed in Paris, the home of La Vogue, as
those just from abroad express it. The
city designs and defines and COM
mands, and worse still, names the
prices. What more natural than a
man dress-architect should also work
up blueprfnts for the suits for dogs =?
If he didn't some competitor would
get the money, and once stranger
arrives in a Partisan dressmaking shop
1t is considered unprofe ssional to per-
NIT her to go away with any loose
change. 1t bulges the pockets. But
let US not forget the dog clothes.
The new chic tailor made mantle
will replace the sealskin Jacket so
popular last year. The mantle is ex-
from the chill breezes stirred up by
the fast moving motor cars.
The handkerchief will be carried in
a little purse attached by a leash.
1t has been decided that Fido shall
use the same perfume as that en-
ployed by his mistress.
The tewelry will be gold bracelets
ornamented with diamonds. They will
be worn on the forelegs.
Footgear is no longer de rigueur. 1t
seems that many dog owners object to
the large appearances thus given the
feet
1t will be seen that petite is not go
ing to be neglected when the chill
winds do blow, and he will not be for
gotten as to those small ornaments
which go to make uD the SatiSfactiOnS
of life. The mistress has been very
thoughtful of her darling. We wish
though we knew what the dog thought
about it.-Toledo Blade

The Farmer. of the Future.

The future farmer will subirrigate
his land, and defy drought as we'll as
floods. He will become a scientific
forester, and every farm will produce
wood and lumber as well as wheat and
apples. A single acre will produce
what ten acres yield now. Women will
work out doors as heartily as men; in
fact, they will be the horticulturists
and the truck gardeners. There will
closer relation between the producer
and the consumer, ignoring horde of
middlemen who frequently waste
more than is destroyed by ignorant
help and insect foes combined. Under
the alliance with the school the farm
will be valued not only for it's gross
weight of products, but for its poems
and it's education. AS our schools be-
come places for applying as well as
acquiring knowledge, our farm homes
will become integral parts Of the gar
den school and the school farm. The
alliance between the home and the
school will become very close. A VAL
ley full of farms is already the nearest
to paradise that we have, but the flu
ture will tenfold its wealth and hum
dredfold it's deIghts.-The Indepen-
dent.

KANSAS COANENT
HOW A CoMM1ssIoN WORKS.

HOW A COMMISSION WORKS.
One year ago the city was in ter
rtble condition. There was no money
to pay for lighting and sweeping the
streets, and sanitary conditions be-
came alarming. The only men who
were receiving their salaries were the
mayor and councilmen and other city
OFFICIALS. The working men had to take
due bills for their salaries. A commit
tee or citizens had to step In at TINS
crisis and take charge of the city at
Ialrs. What change In one year!
There is no need of the citizens COM
mittee at the present time. The affairs
or the city are being managed by busl-
ness men. The books are being kept
the same as those of any business firm
Every man who works for the city
gets his wages every month and if, IN
return for this he does not work Tor
the city as he would work for any other
firm he gets his walking papers ana
some other man takes his place: AND
there is another side to the picture:
One year ago no business man would
invest in Leavenworth real estate I'M

was no confidence in the city. In one

Siders have invested in Leavenworth
They are not afraid of the taxes now
and they are not afraid of the pontl-
clans. The work of the mayor ana
commissioners is away ahead of the ex-
pectations of the men who advocated
the commission form of government. 1t
was expected that it would take at
least three years to put the analrS OF
the city on a business basis and eStab-
fish confidence and both have been
done in less than eight months. LeaV-
enworth will never go back to the olo
political form of gOVerr-~eTt. Our peo-
pie have been fighting for years Tor
cheaper taxes and business adTn1n1S-
tration and they have got both and are
going to keep them. If this much has
been done in eight months what may
we expect in three years. Better times
than we have ever had. This is what
we may expect and this is what we are
going to get.-Leavenworth Post.
