The international
Harvester Company
in perfecting labor
saving farm machinery
is helping the woman
as much as the man.

The farmer who always has field to plow
has no time to plan for the betterment Of his
crops nor the extension of his farm. The woman
with too many duties cannot pay proper atten-
ton to herself, her children, her garden, or her
poultry. When drudgery takes up the day,
there is no time for development.
The use Of two very simple machines,
as they have been perfected by the Interna-
tional Harvester Company, will do much to
increase the woman sleisure and earning capacity.
So long as the cream has to be SKINNED
from the milk with a ladle and the butter
churned by hand, the work will always remain
womans work.
But when an /. H. C. gasoline engine is
running the cream harvester and is calling out
for more cows to supply more milk SO that more
butter can be made, it becomes mans task
one that farm hand will willingly assume.
When the water is pumped by gasoline
engine, and, if desired, is piped through the
house and stable-when there is a hose instead
of heavy water bucket to clean off the porch
when its power runs a washing machine, and
a churn 1t is much easier to keep hired girl.
On farm thus equipped woman has time
to extend her garden and her poultry raising,
and the making Of dairy products, until the mar
keting of her garden truck, chickens, eggs and
butter develops into one OF an important revenue
product.
The wife's sphere Of importance grows. she
is freed from her burdens Of drudgery and
keeps pace with her husband.
The work Of the International Harvester
Company is not only bent towards making this
the day Of the business man farmer-but also the
day Of the farmers BUSINESS WIFE.

EXPERT TALKS
ON RIVER STAGE
3. [. WaIdron, in Charge Of the
United States Weather Bureau
at Hannibal, Furnishes
Some Facts.
CONTROLS
The Record Years When River Has
Been Lowest Have Been Marked
by Very Little Rain-some
Figures.

B. L. Warldon, in charge of the Unit
ed States weather bureau at Hanni- |
bal, has furnished some interesting /
facts and figures relative to the river
and weather conditions He holds |
that close relation exists between |
the various stages of the river, and |
the rain falls, and the manner in
which the latter are distributed.
In looking through the weather rec
ords for the cause of the present low
stage of the Mississippi river, he
says, it is noticed that the lowest
June stages occurred in 1895, 1900 and
1910 and tnat unusually high stages
occurred in 1902 and 1908.
A study of the rainfall in the valley
at and above Hannibal from March
1st to June 30th in these years, show
that the low water in 1895, 1900 and
1910 was caused by a marked deficien-
cy in the rainfall and that the high
water of 1902 and 1903 was caused
by great excess in the rainfall, and
that the unusual severity of the flood
of 1903 was due to the fact that more
than half of the rain that fell in four
months. fell during the last half of
May, and that in the Des Moines val
ley more than 10 inches of rain fell
in as many days during that period.
The year 1910 has been unusually
dry in the Mississippi valley, above
Hannibal, and the river stages are
and have been as low or lower than
they have been at this season of the
year during the last Is years.
At Hannibal, the present stage of
0.S of foot, the lowest ever record
ed in July: the previous low record
being IL foot on July 10th to 31st,
1894. The lowest stage ever reached
by the river at that point, except when
gorged with ice. was OF foot below
zero of the gauge from August Goth
/ to September 3, 1894.
The accompanying table was COM
piled from data at hand and it
shows that the rainfall controls the
4 flow of water in the river. The APP
parent disagreement on the rainfall
and river stages in 1902 and 1903 is
! easily explained by the fact that the
/ rainfall in 1902 was fairly well dis
4 tributed through four months, while
more than half of the 1903 rainfall
occurred during the last half of May.
1t also shows that the Mississippi
/ river can carry off, without doing
material damage any amount of water
that may fall into its basin, provided
it is fairly evenly distributed through
4 few months, but if excessive rains
fall in valleys of the different tribu
& taries at such times that the crests
of several rises meet at some point
in the river, then floods will occur
that are likely to do much damage
1t was this condition that caused the
, high water in 1903.

years absence in the jungle it is
natural that he should take this
course. 1t would be absurd for
him to criticise or denounce at
long range and in one-sided and
partial presentations of the facts.
After a month at Oyster Bay, he

THEY ASK FOR
IMMEDIATE
ACTION

business men of Tacoma and
citizens generally seem to be hn-
ing UP solidly for Mayor Faw-
cett's municipal dock plan.
A committee of ten citizens who
canvassed the business section to-
day with petitions to the city COM
nilsson urging the carrying out of
the project met with unanimous
approval and practically every
merchant and business man will
be for it.
The commissions ers today decid-
ed to consider the mayors sugges-
tion and this afternoon they make
an inspection trip over the pro-
posed site.
1t is probable that If the COM
mission decides to submit the
dock question to the people for an
issue of bonds that with it will
couple sufficient bonds for a new
bridge at Eleventh street which
will be raised to high level per-
mitting boats to pass without
swinging the draw. With such a
situation the dock would at once
spring into favor and would be-
come a live place for water busi-
ness.
The committee of business men
who are circulating the petitions
in favor of the dock is as follows:
G. H. Hyde, president West

ROOSEVELT
SWAMPED
WITH MAIL

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
NEW YORK, June 20.--The
postmaster at Oyster Bay has no
time to read the postal cards.
Since the return of Theodore
Roosevelt, private citizen, the
postmaster has been swamped,
and he is frantically appealing
for help. For that matter, SO Is
Col. Roosevelt.
Letters and kilograms from en-
thusiastic Americans who did not
get to say "howdy" to Roosevelt
when he landed in New York Sat
urday have been pouring into
Oyster Bay.
II would be glad II you would
announce through the United
Press" said Mr.. Roosevelt to a
today, "that the
volume of my correspondence
renders 1t impossible for me to
give 1t my personal attention.
regret the condition very much,
but 1t is impossible for me to read
the letters that are sent. II will
be a kindness for well-disposed
strangers to refrain from writing
and telegraphing."
The former president has not
the necessary force of secretaries
to handle so much mail as he has
received. AS a result important
matters are being swamped by the
mail that is pouring in. During
his stay in London Roosevelt re-
,ceived about 5000 letters. He re-
ceived about 1000 letters after
he retired from office March 4,
1903, and before he had sailed
for Africa.
