CARVING Meat.

To successfully carve meat one
must know how to control the knife.
When carving a slice of meat. after
the first incision has been made the
angle at which the knife is held must
never be altered. or jagged slice will
be the result.
The cut should be direct, sharp and
incisive. The sawlike motion should
not enter into the operation.
AS a rule. the knife should be held
firmly, but applied lightly, so that too
much juice will not be squeezed out
from the meat BY using the point of
the knife lightly as wedge and the
fork as lever, even big fowl may
be easily jointed, provided the carver

Parade of The Knights.
The grand parade" of Tuesday was
the largest parade of knights Templar

elaborate and Michigan boulevard was
most deliberately decorated. The sir

the boulevard south of Thirty-first

by the guns of Battery B, /. N. G., the
detachment for the purpose being

Despite all opposition that was devel-

lieves that all government officials
who look after sanitation and public
health should be in one bureau.

will be will depend largely on the re-
port of Attorney General Wickersham

ment rather than anything like a rep

that injunctions do not issue without
hearing except in emergencies, and
that in all cases hearing be held at
the earliest possible date will be re-
peated.
IL. An appropriation to carry out

Tie President has said he will ask

Chairman Emery of the board will

DRIFT TO The CITIES LESS PRONOUNCED CENSUS INDICATES
While Still Large, Statistcians Think They See Falling Off,
Judging From Early Tabuatons of the Figures

Washington.-A continue
yielding to the lure of the city. Fig
ures of the thirteenth census now be-
ing compiled show that. The attrac-
ton of the average wage of $3.50
for an eight hour day in the city is
stronger than the drawing power of
the $40 a month and keep" for the
twelve and fourteen hour day on the
farm, but there are indications that
the tendency toward the city is slight
ly less. 1t is too early yet to make an
accurate estimate.
Advance census figures indicate
that 60 names will be added to the
list of municipalities having popula-
ton of $4,000 and upward. There
were $50 names on that list ten years
ago. The $4,000 population places
call themselves thriving cities. Each
has been deemed important enough
by the makers of standard publica-
tons like the World Almanac to war;
rant a place in their statistics. Now
the list will be so long that the more
daring editors are expected to raise
the minimum to $4,000. A few de-
cades ago it was only 10000.
About two-thirds of the newcomers
in the $4,000 list are in the states in
the basin drained by the Mississippi
and north of Kentucky. The others

New York.-Presiden Taft's mes
sage to the coming session of con-
gress will cover fourteen principal
subjects, writes staff correspondent

of these will be treated has not been
settled in detail, but in general way
the President has made up his mind
on most of|them. The subjects are:
/. Conservation. Recommends
lions will be guided by reports from
interior department experts now in
vestigating and from congressman,
each of whom will report for his own
district. The only official informa-
ton is that the recommendations will
be constructive and progressive, but
within the law.
2. Economy in government. This
subject has progressed no further at
present than pruning in the depart
ments. A commission is investigat-
ing and the administration is trying
TO find some way of large saving with
out touching army and navy appro-
priations.
3. 1t is hoped the railroad stocks
and bonds commission, though not
yet appointed, will report in time to
get into the message.
To Remedy Laws Delays.
4. As Mr.. Aldrich has announced
his intention of retiring March )
next, it is expected that he will sub
NIT the report of the monetary COM
mission to the coming session, and
that the President will base recon-
mendations on it. Both this item
and the preceding one may be COW
cred in special messages.
8. Reform in federal, civil and
criminal court practice is a subject
on which the President feels earnest
ly. He was unable to get any action
at the last session and will lay the
subject again before congress.
6. Ship subsidy, or the substituting
of mail carrying steamers, will be
urged again.

ity and supervising employees COM

citizens of Jackson are clamoring for
