PEOPLES FORUM

Editor Evening Farmer:
 Dear Sir-Dr. N. E. Wordin's caus- tic comment on sundry persons who rail against vaccination and other modern methods of medical practice was all right. The world is full of Hcranks", some crankier than others; in other words they are monomaniacs and some are more afflicted than oth- CTS. Now the doctor probably under stands the meaning of this word mono maniacs better than I do; however it sounds good and think will apply in Here is the way it works as I un- derstand it: A person broods over some one thing until it gets to be a mania with him Cor her); for instance, somebody gets the notion into his cranium that the world is all but ready to come to an end, he pours over the prophecies and twists them around until he actually believes that he will hardly have time to draw a long breath before the great cataclysm oc- CUTS and about this time he becomes monomaniac. The next fellow hears that meat is injurious: he soon be- comes a vegetarian and proclaims that meat is a deadly poison. Another finds a case where vaccine contained some foreign germ and accidentally inoculate l the patient with some other disease Lot down on the program, and he starts to preach to the world against the deadly stuff, totally ignor- ing the many lives it has saved. An other, by too close application to phy- sical culture, turns it into physical torture, and so it goes the world over ad libiturn, but the doctor is right, space is too valuable to use for such stuff.
 Sincerely yours.

Somewhat peculiar views upon the divorce question are expressed by pr. Anna Blount who is described as a sociologist, a decidedly elastic term. She says:
 Make divorces more easy. Give everyone a divorce who wants one. If the juTdes that try divorces could be made up of women, I think there would be many more granted.
 The current belief has been, and still is. that wives need protection from divoFce-seeking husbands - that the latter are, as a general thing, more desirous of matrimonial changes than are the former. Sociologist Blount conveys the reverse idea. viz, that more wives than husbands desire di- vorces and are warranted in seeking them. If the actiad condition is as stated, law makers may be compelled to change the hitherto prevailing pol ysand, instead of restricting divorces, open the doors widely. Indeed, Dr. Biount apparently would have the courts hand down divorces upon mere request and with no necessity of al- leging reasons therefor. We hardly believe that public sentiment will en- dorse this position, even though it were a fact, as intimated by Dr. Blount that feminine juries would grant divorces. so to speak, "at sight,

AIdEzN AND sIHE
 POLITICAL UNDERTAKERs"

Tue Hartford Courant publishes an tiluminative article upon the case of
 Postmaster Allen of Middletown. # a1pears that while holding office, he was antiye in county politics, though mot more so perhaps than other post meAters whose names might be cited. Hiis sponsors were Senators Bulkeley and Hrandegee and Congressman 6pakwy. When President Roosevelt named his successor, the two Senators haaked the nomination, and Allen con- tin1ded in office as a holdover.
 When the Senatorial contest came on last winter it at first appeared that RraStdegee would have a. walk-over, and Alien was notified that he could foHpw his Hill inclinations without damage to his personal interests. He worked for Hill but was evidently too energetic to please the Senators. Then they succeeded in ousting him from the Mfddletown postmastership, all though they had previously been his sponsors.
 When there was a possibility of the creation of the office of supervisor of automobilee. it was reported that Gov. Weeks would confer that position up on Allen At once the war upon him was renewed and the plan of creating the office was knocked out In this Successful attack. rumor credits Sec retary of State Rogers with acting as the working agent of the two Sena- tors.
 Next, came the clerkship of the State Tuberculosis Commission, and Gov. Weeks. at the instance of the commits sion, named Allen. The Courant' 8 comment is:
 This was a case where the political undertakers were left on the outside and so in spite of his two interrnents AIlenstiH draws the breath of life and tIs comfortable a.ssociate--a regular aa1ary To meet this dire and unex- pected emergency. war has been open ed on the tuberculosis commission, and in one paper and another there are 9dHorfals lamenting that the commits ,1Aion is a failure before it has begun its work! The shambles for anybody who does anything for Allen! The upehot of all this persistent and hvirHlent attacking has been to create no little sympathy for the man. Of course. he has got to make good in his new place; that's up to him. But ! 1t does seem early to hammer the commission and rather late to keep it up on Allen.
 Rumor asserts that "the political undertakers'' have other names upon their black list and will move so soon as opportunity serves.

North Dakota is a. prohibition State. Nevertheless, it las 1,791 liquor deal ing places, or one to each PA of popu- lation. This fact is authentic for it is drawn from the number of U. s. licenses issued. Minnesota which is on-prohibition, has one saloon for each 800 of population. A further fact of significance is that before North Dakota established prohibition, there was one l.. s. license to each 319 population. It seems then that not only does prohibition not prohibit, but also that under it the number of drinking places increases A still fur ther fact of significance is that South Dakota which is a "wet' State, has but l ,573 U. s. licenses against 1,791 in dry North Dakota.
 The truth is that prohibition has never yet been, and never will be, en- forced anywhere. Total abstention may be desirable, but 1t cannot be legie Hated into effect When a man deslres liquor and has the wherewithal, he " ill somehow procure it. North Dakota proves that when man de- sires to sell liQnor, he will find some means or doing so.

with the spineless cactus of Luther
Burbank OF this Cretier Riedel of San
Francisco, who is here, is entirely con-
fdent.
A spineless cactus will grow on tin
roof. Riedel says. With it he proposes
to transform the Sahara into tropical
garden
The French government is making
experiments to reclaim desert land on
Mayotte a small island off the coast of
Madagascar" he said today. But the
experiments were undertaken with the
inferior kind of cactus. l propose to
introduce into the Sahara the spineless
cactus / have just come from Berlin
The German colonial Office will begin
experiments with the spineless cactus
in South Africa next spring. Absolutely
there is no reason why this cactus
should no reclaim every tropical desert

regarding il he writes: 1T is now 10
years since the house was built and
there is no evidence of warping or
checking. The eucalyptus finished
room has given Us more satisfaction
and has been admired more by visit
ors than any OF our other native wood
finished rooms. The trees from which
the finish in my house was made were
cut in March. and by forced season
ing (steam and kiln dried) the finish
was placed IN the house in September
of the same year. This was at the
expense OF the material. as I lost much
of the lumber in forcing the season
ing"
1t IS aseertained that the Australian
mahogany has been used in finishing
many residences in San Francisco and
other California cities. The contractor
and the owner were alike Ignorant OF
the fact that the wood was eucalyptus
IL mattered little, however. as there
seems never to have been the slightest
cause for complaint

\ former foreman of the carpenter
department of the Pullman car shops
states that for years the eucalyptus has
been used largely in finishing Pullman
coaches. The best wood effects were
obtained with IL Travellers often ad-
mire the beautiful color and polish
without knowing that the wood is
eucalyptus OF the same sort that they
may see growing from the car win
dows.
Manufacturers say that eucalyptus
is no more difficult 10 handle than other
hardwoods; that IL is suitable for any
kind of furniture. and superior TO most
or the woods used for that purpose.
Nearly all the California furniture fac
tories have tested the wood extensively
and are willing to use it as fast as
the supply meets the demand All that
can be secured is made into chairs.
desks and tables Business and pro-
fessioBal men who take great pride in
the furnishings of their Offices often
place orders for eucalyptus furniture.
Its durability equals its great beauty.
Charles Glum. representative OF a
large Philadelphia furniture manufac-
turer, is quoted as follows: We have
been on the coast for several weeks
with a view to acquiring lands for the
growing of the red gum eucalyptus.
The rapid disappearance OF the east
ern hardwoods has compelled eastern
manufacturers to look for a substitute
wood. They believe that eucalyptus
will fully answer their problem If they
can only obtain il in large enough
quantities. They will certainly be in
the market for all that is offered for
sale for many years to come My own
people will become purchasers, and
they also will join with the Cali
fornians in growing groves Of the Won

From information received from
Washington, d. c., it is understood
that the treasury department will pur-
chase the lot on the southwest corner
of Pine and Sansome streets for the
site OF the subtreasury building. There
were several sites submitted to the
department. but this piece of property.
which stands in the name of Mrs. VIII
liam 4. Vanderbilt Jr.. seemed to meet
with the approval OF the committee.
In view of the desirability of this
lot the department at Washington has
asked that United States Attorney Rob-
ert T. Devlin have the title searched.
This work. under the direction of Dep
uty United States Attorney Clark, has
been progressing for some time.
This report will be ready within a
few days. when il will be forwarded TO
