CONFERENCES FOR WOMEN.

On every farm whose owner lays claim to being wide awake and pro- gressive there should not only be labor saving machinery for doing outdoor work most economically and effectively, but the same, principles should prevail as regards the farm home. This means that there should be convenient SUD- ply of kindling. dry wood or coal; that there should be available a good sup ply of hard and soft water, with ar engagements for heating 1t when neces- sary; that there should be every need ed convenience for doing the family washing. Ask the good women of the household if there is anything they need along these lines. Perhaps there Is something you have forgotten, not enumerated here, the providing of which they would be very grateful for.

AN EQUAL RESPONSIBILITY.

While the stock gambler and specu- lator Is often responsible for precipitat- ing a financial panic. there is another class which is even more responsible for a continuation of hard times namely, the folks who withdraw their deposits from banking houses and hide them in tin cans and stockings. Con- fidence. as it pertains to good times and business prosperity, may we'll be likened to a craft which is kept afoat by an abundant circulating medium belonging to depositors large and small in every metropolis and village and rural district in the land. When conditions arise which cause the own CTS of money to generally withdraw their contributions from the financial stream, there is just one result possi- ble-the stage Of water is so lowered that the craft Confidence runs aground. This means a stoppage of navigation. an all around paralysis of business, men thrown out of work, a slump in prices, with what is generally termed hard times quite likely to ensue. And upon no class does this burden fall heavier than upon the tiller of the soil. What is needed most just now in the present period of financial stress is that those who have taken their money from circulation should again put it into the stream, so that the craft above referred to can float in good depth of water without danger of striking sand bar or hidden snag. The giving of this needed relief lies large ly in the hands of the stocking and tin can financiers-those who trust these receptacles as places of safe deposit rather than national banks In the present period each one has a duty to perform, and the return of former confidence depends largely on whether each one does it.

A POLITICIAN AS WELL.

While a farmers prime efforts to achieve success should be devoted to an intelligent tilling of the soil and q proper care of his farm animals, there would seem to be good grounds for his seeking to determine and correct, so far as may lie in his power, the causes and conditions which make possible a slump of $2 per hundredweight in the price of hogs and cattle within a pc riod of three weeks where there are just as many hungry people to feed as there were before the slump took place. The drop would seem to be due In part to causes industrial which may be in a measure unavoidable, a sort of financial gout brought on by too much high living; in part to causes and motives political which seem to be traceable to a desire on the part of those high in the realm of finance to discredit recent efforts at rational and needed reform in both business and political life. With the coming weeks light is going to be shed on this mat ter. It will behoove the stock raiser and the tiller of the soil to keep his eyes open and to insist on such action by his representative in congress as will tend to correct or remove the causes referred to.

PRESERVING POSTS.

An interesting series of experiments has been made by the Wyoming experiment. station with a. view to determining the most satisfactory and practicable method for preserving post timber. Of several plans follow ed the one found most effective was that in which the posts were soaked in crude petroleum to a point a few inches above the depth they were to extend into the ground and then burn ing the petroleum. It was found that the heat drove the oil into the wood. while the charring of the surface add ed materially to the keeping quality of the posts. Soaking the posts in oil, with the subsequent burning, was found to be greatly superior to either method tried alone. The method re- ferred to was found to be relatively inexpensive both from the standpoint of cost of oil and because of the ra- pidity with which the posts could be treated.

Mason City, June ga unique bat
tie is being waged in this city between
a great corporation and swarm of
bees. One of the long boxes on the
top of a pole which belongs to the
Western Electric Telephone system has
been taken possession of by swarm
of bees, and for two days they have
held the fort against all assaults. The
latter have been, however, largely per-
functory, since no one can be found
with sufficient courage to attack
them with any real vigor. The COM
pany has called for volunteers to scale
the pole and bring down the swarm,
and they have also offered tempting
rewards for the man brave enough to
accomplish the feat. but so far no suf-
ficiently brave parsonage has been
found. The bees have swarmed on one
of the telephone poles on East State
street, and within a short distance of
the very heart of the city.

Special to Tfmes-Repub;ican.
Waterloo, June 26.-M. Kinsella has
turned over to the police small pack
age which he found in the Cedar river
near Fifth street. In it were photo
graphs Of a rural home and surround
ing, note book, three powders, en-
velopes, bills of merchandise, and 9TH
er articles. They were tied very neatly
and showed care in packing. From the
contents of the package, the police sur
mise it is the property Of Mrs. Lydal
who has lived in Wisconsin, probably
Milwaukee. But how the package came
to be in the river is the puzzler, and
whether or not it indicates the posses
sor might have thrown herself also in
to the river.
One bill of sale showed the name
of Mrs. Lydal, who purchased goods
of Boer & Greengo, of Menominie,
Wis, a package that had contained
jewelry showed the name Of Max
Schuht, of Milwaukee. One of the
boxes containing the three powders
was the name Of M. A. Dietz & Co.,

prescribing physician. The bundle will
be kept at the city hall pending fur
