pa out of him until he learns
what farming means. Before
we can make a living we have
got to raise something to sell that
we can set the price on, we have
got to do this ourselves, the
other fellow has nothing to do
with it. All the unions on earth
combined can not do anything
without cooperation as the Sons
of Rest do. The Sons of Rest is
the most complete organization
since the history of man was
written. The Labor and Trade
unions have never accomplished
any thing. Why? Because
modern machinery has taken
their places. One man with
modern machinery can produce
now what 20 used to. That
throws 10 out and nothing to do.
Who is to blame? Nobody. The
modern improved machinery has
proved detrimental instead OF
beneficial. Then the system is
wrong, all would have employ
ment if it were not for modern
machinery and all would be con-
sumers which is the life of trade.
Under present conditions one
man does the work of 20 men, so
you have only one consumer
where you ought to have 20, the
10 out of employment has nothing
to buy with. The seed was born
! in this system to kill itself, and
so it was in the credit and mort
gage system, Under the present
system all property of both
farmers and merchants will soon
drift into the hands of the firm
people. The merchants of St.
Louis, seeing this disastrous
monster staring them in the
face, proposes to establish a new
party, knowing that the two old
parties are the same manage
ment. When the tariff question
came up the Republican and
Democrats came together and
knocked all the reduction on
tariff into cooked hat, yet if
one of US country jakes say any
thing about it they are ready
to jail us. Look at what our
state senators say of the corrupt
ion in Arkansas, then we will
naturally have something to say.
It's understood that we are living
under a republican government
but we know better. The old
parties are foredoomed politically.
We are now living under a capt.
talist government. The Republi-
cans are working under the d.
rection of the capitalists. The
capitalists allow the republicans
their name. as there must be some
name for the president, congress
and senate, and the people can
be fooled part of the time. We
have been fooled as years, and
that's long enough. The Bible
tells us that wise men change;
fools never. God certainly old
not intend for US to wait over so
years at the time when there is
nothing in sight. 1t will not be

Cabbage and Canliaower.

To Boil Cabbage.-Cut a small
head of cabbage into four parts, cut
ting down through the stock. Soak
for half an hour in q pan of cold wa
ter to which las been added a table
spoonful of salt; this is to draw out
any insect- that may be hidden in
the leaves. Take from the water
and cut into slices. Have a large
stewpan half full of boiling water;
put in the cabbage, pushing 1t under
water with a spoon. Add one. table
spoon OF salt and cook from 20 to
1 3 minutes, depending upon the age
o. the cabbage. Turn into colandeT
and drain for a bout two minutes.
Put in a chopping bowl and mince.
Season with butter, pepper, and more
salt IL it requires It. Allow a table,
spoon of butter to a generous pint
of the cooked vegetable. Cabbage
cooked in this manner will be of
delicate flavor and may be generally
eaten without distress. Have the
kitchen windows open at the top
while the cabbage is boiling, and
there will be little if any odor in the
house.
Cabbage With Pork.--For a small
head of cabbage use about hlaf a
pound of mixed salt pork. Boil the
pork gently for three or four hours.
Prepare the cabbage as for plain
boiled .bbage, Drain well and put
on TO boil with the pork. Boil rap
idly for 25 to 40 minutes. Serve the
pork with lLr cabbage. The vegeta-
BILE may require a little more salt.
smoked bacon or ham may be sub
stituted for the pork. Cabbage may
ue cooked in water in which corned
beef was boiled.
Creamed Cabbage.-One pint of
boiled and minced cabbage, IL pint
hot milk, / tablespoonful butter, l
teaspoonlul nour, 1-2 teaspoonfu
salt, 1-2 teaspoonfUl pepper. Put
the cabbage, hot milA, salt, and pep
per in stevpan on the fire. Beat
the butter ind -four together until
creamy, then stir INTO the contents
OF the stewpan. Simmer ten min
uies, being careful not to scorch the
sauce; serve very hot.
Cabbage With Sausage. six
sausages, / quart minced cabbage.
- teaspoonful pepper, salt. If nee
essary. Fry the sausages crisp and
brown. Take from the frying pan
| and pour of all but three tablespoon
| fuls of the fat. Put the minced cab
bage in the frying pan and cook six
minutes. Arrange in hot dish and

women constitute over nine-tenths

the census credits him with being a
merchant. In 1880 there was one
milliner to every 323 women Is
years Of age and over In 1900 one
to every 2S5.
This change is thought to reflect
tho advance in the prosperity of the
country, since millinery to a certain
extent is a luxury, and in family
budgets forms an item that probably
responds quickly to fluctuations in
income. II the manual training
