W .uld be little for most of US Ia the
world. Fifteen years ago that wonder
full "White City," the Worlds Colum.
bian Exposition at Chicago, put lis
mark on every town Ia the land,
because, there, trai..ed hands were
able to exhibit to the world the IDEAS
of beauty evolved by somebody's
brain.
In teaching hOmem aking all the
general training finds application In
the girls everyday study. La general
nature study she learns something OF
the life of insects, and knows how to
combat them in her home. She learns
something of food plants and fioer
plants, of germs and their rapid
multiplication in the proper culture,
improper, II In her cellar, ice chest or
pantry. In physics, which is only
"sanctified common sense" she gets
the knowledge of common things, of
light and heat, power and electricity,
which may all be used In the home.
In chemistry, the girl learns many
lessons besides knowledge of the ~
odd elements. She learns exactness
and self confidence as well as ability
to know materials, and she Will learn
the great lesson that good materials
Will bring best results every time.
She learns to demand purity in what
ever she buys for her home, and when
she comes to providing for a family,
she will learn to spend her money to
the best advantage. When our girl
comes to the cooking table she Is
ready to apply all her knowledge to
the preparation OF food, because she
knows whatsoever man eats that
shall he also be-"
Training in cooking will give Ter
power to create power in bodies and
brains, and 30 build up such people as
can do well the worlds work. She
studies along with her drawing, the
science of planning house with
reference to convenience Of every
sort that her own work may be made
Easy, She doesn't have the sink so
low it breaks her back IT, wash dishes
ia il, nor the hooks In the closets SO
high she has to climb on chair TO
reach them; neither does she make a
step between dining-room and kitchen,
nor much carving o. woodwork where
dust may accumulate. She thinks
cut the utility of every room.
After the house Is planned. the
of the home 's to be the
next study; then the prevention Of
disease and t e accumulation Of red
blood and healthy tissue, which will
make tor health and happiness,
With all this the girl learns TO take
cara Ct herself, and with a trained
M ld in a healthy body she can &C
complish even more than her far
sighted great grandmother dreamed
when she left her beloved home to
help make a new home on the prairie.
Is Kansas doing all she can for her
sons and daughters? She is doing
we'll, know, tut believe that we'll
is not enough; for after all we have
heard about the corn and the cattle,
the soil and the alfalfa, no crop means
so much to the Kansas farmer as the
crop of boys and girls. Give them
then, all the advantages you can, and
IN the next generation you will see
not only individuals that will give
Kansas her full rank among the
states, but such homes as shall make
ner the envy Of all nations.-Mrs.
Nellie Kedzle Jones, In the Mail and
Breeze.

Corn Supplements and Substitutes.

The proper supplementary feeds
which balance corn in a ration not only
enable the hog to show better results
in fattening. but they also make posi-
BILE more economical ration. Feeding
a hog on corn alone, whatever the
form, is false economy by which the
feeder cheats both himself and the hog.
Its natural supplements are those
which furnish protein and mineral
matter and, If not easily available on
the farm, are usually purchaseable so
as to be used at profit. Some, such
as clover, alfalfa and other pasturage,
are unquestioned as to their desirable
qualities, and others, such as the pre-
pared meat scraps from the great pack
ing houses and known by their trade
names of meat meal or tankage, have
rapidly come in favor for the large
amount of protein they supply. The
ash or mineral matter of the corn grain
is considered indigestible for swine, and
the absence of mineral matter impairs
the nutritive process and dnjures the
structure; yet 1t is neither difficult
nor expensive to supply hogs with
ashes, salt, coal, charcoal or charred
cobs as correctives, with corn.-From

THE RAPE OF A GREAT PARTY.
[Sioux City Tribune.l

Only once before was a great party
so brutally, ruthlessly betrayed as was
the republican party by a majority OF
it's men in congress from March Is to
Aug. 5, 1909. Its unhappy fellow VIC
tim was the dem ocratic party. and the
date was 1894. It paid the penalty in
these long years of exile and disrepute.
The parallel is striking. A fiscal sys-
tenn that taxed men on what they want
not on what they have, had developed
by the law of it's own being, inevitably
as gravitation works or water flows
into a system of taxing men on what
they want to enrich beyond legitimate
bounds the few. A tariff for revenue
only had blossomed into a tariff for
protection'-bonus. =
Slowly, because tax was merged in
price, and men failed to sense the tax,
because the siren song OF higher wa ges
fell on credulous ears, because simple
minded men thought that somehow it
brought them unearned profit, slowly
the impression gained that craft was
again using its old disguise of philan-
1hropy to make easier it's plunadering.
Gathering head it finally burst in the
eminent into the hands of democracy
pledged to redeem its promise to abol-
ish root and branch the policy of using
the power to tax for any other purpose
than to provide revenue. What fol-
lowed? The shameless betrayal of a
great party. the riot Of greed, the
treachery of statesmen, the insolent
breaking of faith, and the prompt ex-
pulsion of the party from power, need
not be recounted.
Again We had the rising discomfort
with the natural, the inevitable results
of a partnership of government with
men. Competition was being strangled
by combination and the combination
sheltered by a tariff purposely made
to prevent competition. Prices Of liv-
as mercury mounts in it's tube under
the suns hot rays. Again this protest
eliminated, but within the party com
mitted to the policy. It's president had
twice told it's congress that beyond a
tax on imports that covered and equal
lied the labor cost between this and
other countries products, the tax was
unjust and unjustifiable And twice it's
congress had stood pat"
Then the sentiment Of the people
forced IT'S way into expression in the
national convention. That body COM
manded its congress to do what it's
president had twice asked 1t to do, to
revise the tariff and make its rates
cover difference in cost of production
here and abroad. And with the same
insolent disregard as that of the demo-
Gratis of 1894, of the command-and Of
consequences-the congress went to
the arranging of rates on the old plan,
granting what they asked whom the
rates would enrich, rejecting with con-
tempt all efforts of honest legislators
to redeem the pledge made to the
country, and virtually re-enacting the
tariff which had caused the uprising
that found expression In the national
convention
And what have we? One brave. hon
est man saying what millions think:
The only just system is to tax on
what people have, not on what people
want" is that ito be the slogan of the
next presidential campaign?
