AID FOR FARMERS WIVES.
Uncle Sans Extension Of Institute
Idea a Help For Women.

Extension Of the farmers institute
idea to include the farmers wives is
the latest development Of the policy
Of paternal solicitude for the great
American agriculturist as pursued by
the department of agriculture. The
betterment OF the home surroundings
OF the farmer. with particular regard
for the advantages OF good housekeep-
ing. wholesome cooking the obserr-
ance of the laws Of sanitation. the
beautifying OF the home inside and
out, the economical administration OF
the women's side Of the business of
farming, pure water, ventilation and
an endless variety of minor items
which will tend to make the life of
the farmers wife and daughters more
attractive are the purpose OF this new
division of the department..
Professor John Hamilton, formerly
state secretary of agriculture of Penn
sylvania. is at the head OF the division
OF farmers Institutes.
The work OF the women's institutes
Is perhaps broader IN its scope than
that for the men. 1t IS certainly more
varied. In twenty-one states OF the
Union they have begun the work al
ready, and within year or so every
agricultural state in the Union will
have organized institutes for the won.
en- folk
The department OF agriculture has
just issued It's first pamphlet on the
subject OF the farmers institute for
women. 1t is hoped that this will be
but forcrunner OF much more along
the same lines. 1t Is the hope OF the
department authorities that they will
be able TO put I'm circulation comprc-
hensive series OF bulletins. similar To
those in regular circulation on general
farm subjects. which will prove of
real interest and great value to the
farm women OF .America-rcally worth
while treatises on the art and science
Of living and being happy amid idcal
farm surroundings.

Ill Health Is More Expensive Than
DuY furp

This country is now filled with peo-
pie who migrate across the continent
In all directions seeking that which
gold cannot buy. Nine-tenths Of them
are suffering from throat and lung
trouble or chronic catarrh resulting
frem neglected colds, and spending
fortunes vainly trying to regain lost
health. Could every sufferer but undo
the past and cure that first neglected
cold. all this sorrow, pain, anxiety and
expense could have been avoided.
Chamberlain Cough Remedy is fa-
nous for it's cures of colds. and can
always be depended upon. Use it
and the most serious diseases may
be avoided. For sale by Laurens

If women who are tired and run down,

MONDAY EVENING. FEB. 5. 1909.

The Delaware, launched on Saturday,
ia practically a duplicate Of the North
Dakota, which went down the ways at
Quincy, Mass. In November. "The
most important question raised By Sat
urdsy's incident" says the New York
Tribune, sis whether the builders Of
the Delaware are showing the same dill
gence aud thoroughness as those of the
North Dakots. Final judgment cannot
be passed until both are finished. Still,
~ both we're put under contract at the
same time, Quincy has apparently OBJ
tanned a slight lead In the race with
Newport News" This is hardly fair to
the Virginia yard. The Delaware, IS
she was launched. is the biggest and
heaviest war vessel that ever made her
maiden plunge into auy water OF the
world ShaSweighed nearly one thous-
and tons more than her sister ship, the
North Dakota. The North Dakota, the
keel of which was laid ahead of the Del
awarss, was 81 per cent toward compile
ton at launching, whereas the Delaware
was 65.6 per cent completed. This
should settle The question IS to whether
the builders of the Delaware have shown
the ssme diligence and thOrOughness as
those of the North Dakota.
