KANSAN WARNS HIS ORCHARD
Five Hundred Stoves to Succeed Pres.
ent Smudge Fires.

Sam Young. who owns sixty acre
orchard south of Atchison. Kan, IS
making 500 sheet iron stoves which
will be placed in his orchard next
spring. Mr.. Young has twice saved
his orchard from frost by the use Of
smudge fires and believes the stoves
will be more effective. They will cost
him about 40 cents each to construct,
not counting his own labor. and he
figures it will take five men to keep
them going
Other orchard men in that locality
are being won over to the theory of
protecting their orchards from frost.
Ben Stuart, who sold $1,000 worth of
apples in 1910. figures he has saved
several crops this way, but Young is
the first man to introduce stoves on a
large scale

berculosis has been declining steadily
Tor thirty years. Much has been done,
and much is being done, to help it along
the down grade, but we seem to have
overlooked an effective weapon, IN the
oPen-air or cold-air schools. UnfortU-
nately for the city, it has been neees-
sary to spend a great deal of money
IN the last few years for new buildings
which should have been provided long
before. We are catching up, however,

ing an open-air school as an expert
ment Even if the Board aRd the Dis
triet Commissioners do not feel that
they can afford to make an appropria-
ton for the construction OF model,
open-air rooms or of a building this
year, 1t should be possible to test the
system at small expense by convert
ing a few rooms or a building now in
use into an open-air or cold-air school.
The benefits derived in New York and
Chicago surely justify Washington in
making a similar experiment.

SENSIBLE TARIFF REVISION
IN PROSPECT.

Cne of the passages in his textbook
letter for which President Taft viii
be commended by fair-minded people
generally throughout the country Is
that concerning his views on future
revisions of the tariff incidentally,
his words offer small hope to any
standpatteTs who may have imagined
that the tariff commission was a sop
thrown out to progressives IN the
hope Of aPpeasing their appetites with
out providing for the actual business
OF readjusting tariff schedules
After describing the creation of the
tariff commission and outlining the
work upon which 1t Is engaged, Mr..
Taft makes the following declaration:
When the commission completes
Its work either on the entire tariff
or on any Of the schedules in respect
70 winch issue mas arisen, and the
Work or the commission shows that
the present tariff IS wrong and should
be changed. / expect 10 bring the
matter 10 the attention of the Con
g-esS, with a view 10 its amendment
OF the tariff IN that particular. OF
course, this viii be impTdctica BILE I'M
less Congress itself shall adopt the
parliamentary rule, as ] hope il VIII.
that a bill 10 amend one schedule OF
the tariff may not be subject to a
motion to amend by adding changes
in other schedules
1t Is hardly possible that even the
most radical insurgents would advO-
cate a repetition OF the last Con
gressionaI performance in revising the
tariff The country has had all it
wants OF such a wholesale scramble
Of politicians and special interests to
rush through a piece of work that
could not possibly be done intelligent
" IN the time allotted to it. It IS
pretty clear that the nation Is commit
ted to the protective theory. 1t Is also
pretty clear that It wants a tariff that
VIII equal the difference in cost of
production at home and abroad and
allow the domestic manufacture a fai
profit only. Further, 1t Is generally
admitted that such a result cannot
be obtained without exact information
as TO cost OF production here and IN
foreign countries
These things being true, the attitude
Of President Taft VIII strike the coUn-
try as being the right attitude. Such
inequalities and injustiees a. are all
too many in the prevailing tariff law
are bound to obtain TO greater or less
degree in any law framed as the Payne
Aldrich law was framed On the other
hand, tariff law worked out on the
foundation indicated by Mr. Taft,
would be quite likely to approximate
the ideal protective system
