WASHINGTON BACHELOR CLUB.
It's Purpose Is to Find Wives for Its
Members,

''The Blue Mountain Bachelors club Of
Dayton, Wash, is one of the unique or
CARNATIONS in the United States" said
L. NJ. Waite of Seattle.
'"This is an organization Of young
farmers of that part of Washington and
has for its sole purpose the obtaining of
wives for its members. That part of
Washington is a new country, sparsely
populated, and there are many bachelor
farmers who pine for wives.
Officials of the bachelors club during
the last year have placed advertisements
in newspapers in the west announcing
that the members are seeking wives.
More than 1000 replies were received
from an advertisement inserted once in
several of the largest Pacific coast pa
perS. These haven't been answered yet
because the young farmers have been too
busy recently to do anything but attend
to their planting and harvesting. When
this is completed the letters will be par
celled out among the members by a COM
mittee and red hot heart missives will
begin to burden the mail carriers in that
section of the state.
''The club is planning to organize
branches in all parts of the west where
women are scarce and the members be-
lieve that they are engaged in one of the
most laudable undertakings possible. y

HE WARNS THE CITIES.
Senator McCumber Says Reckless Ex-
travagance Soon Must Cease.

BY what law, God given or mar
created have the denizens of the cities
a greater right - the comforts, the luxu-
ries, the pleasures of life than have the
tiIierS Of the soil? asks Senator Nc,
Cumber Ill the Columbian Magazine.
The wonderful prosperity of the last
dozen years has developed Il life of reck-
less extravaganza in this country. The
great number of wealthy people now
present IN every large city has set q
pace of high living with which the less
fortunate are trying to keep up. Econo-
my and selt-denial seem to have become
almost lost art. The city gait is en-
tirely out of relation and proportion to
the more rigid economy practised by the
rural population.
There must and should be an economic
adjustment upon a plane of closer equal
lty, and this means that we must elimi-
nate some OF our most eXtravagant hab-
its; that we may not satisfy all of our
expensive desires. We make living ex-
pensive because we submit to excessive
charges rather than deny ourselves some
useless luxury. Let us begin our econ1-
my at the right point.
Let those men who need some expres-
sion for their excessive boycott spirit
turn it against the So to S25 per day
rooms at their hotels. Let those ladies
direct it toward the $25 to $50 hat that
has not "a actual worth Of material on
it. When they have done that they will
have accomplished a double good-they
will have brought these and kindred ar
tlcles down to a reasonable basis, and
they will have saved sufficient means
to pay the farmer and the retailer fair
and honest compensation for their food
stuffs. They will have given new
strength and power to the principle of
live and let live.''

The Smoke Nuisance and tuberculosis.

Medical men conducting campaigns are
as apt as other people to make the mis-
take of reSOrting to Overstatement for the
sake of emphasis. The plan works for
while, and then fails. Eventually it has
the effect of leading the public to disre-
gard even true statements coming from
a source that has taken advantage of
their implicit reliance to get them more
excited than was warranted by the facts.
Everybody knows that the smoke-laden
atmosphere of large cities is deleterious.
Everybody knows also that tuberculosis
is a fearfully prevalent disease, and that,
as it is spread by germs, the way to
diminish it's dominion is to put the public
on guard against it. The anti-tubercu-
losis propa ganda is i'll the interest of HUI
mainly, but it must be conducted with
certain degree of conservatism or it will
cease to be effective.
In the course of lecture at Chicago yes
terday Doctor +. r. Zeit of Northwest
ern university said that one-seventh of
the people of Chicago die of consump-
ton. Possibly this is true-at any rate
it is not incredible-and surely it is
enough to wake up the average Chicago
an to the necessity of being alert to
er did not stop at this. He went on to
assert that EIGHTY per cent of the Chi
cagoans who do not die of consumption
are inoculated with it"-that is to say.
they contract consumption at some time
during their lives without knowing it,
and get well, and the fact that they have
had it is revealed only by autopsy after
they are dead, or never revealed at all.
Of course the eighty per cent named by
the lecturer was merely an estimate.
Was it an exaggerated estimate? The
conclusion is asserted to be based on the
percentage of bodies subjected to au-
topsy in which the lungs show tubercular
cavities that have healed. II may be that
Doctor Zeit does not exaggerate.
If the estimate is approximately cor
rect it should have the effect of putting
courage into persons who know them
selves to be afflicted with tuberculosis
and who are willing to go through the
most rigid regimen prescribed to bring
about a cure.
Doctor Zeit says that in average cities
the number of bodies examined after
death which show signs of tuberculosis
is fifty per cent.

HONOR ENLISTED MAN.
Retiring Sergeant Reviews Two Bat
taliOnS

First Sergeant Patrick Kelly, Co. E,
Sixteenth infantry, stationed at Fort
Crook, was recently placed on the re-
tired list. In the evening of his last
day Sergt. Kelly, standing on the right
of Col. Cornelius Gardener, and in front
of the line of officers, reviewed the two
battalions a few minutes after he had,
with them, marched out on the
parade ground for the last time. The
sight was an impressive one as the Of
ficers, one by one, left their companies,
and, forming in line, were joined by
Sergt. Kelly, who took his station at
their left flank. Then the line moved
forward, taking it's place preparatory to
the review. Sergt. Kelly was born in
County Mayo, Ireland, forty-six years
ago, and came to America in 1883. He
first enlisted in the Sixth infantry and
served with that regiment for five years.
He then joined the Nineteenth and was
with that body nearly twelve years. He
has been with the Sixteenth since May
Is. 1902 AS each enlistment expired,
he was discharged as sergeant with
character excellent" Through Capt.
Martin l.. Crimmins Of Co. E, Sergt.
Kelly has been offered a position in civil
life. The offer comes from Capt. Grim
Minis father, John D. Crimmins of New
York.-New York Evening Post.

Health Hints.

For indigestion, take good dose of
essence of pepsin as required or take a
powder composed of two grains of pure
pepsin and three grains of pure pancrea-
tine.
When depressed and melancholy, get
some pills each containing three grains
of the combined valerianates of iron,
quinine and zinc and take one every
four hours. Plenty of active exercise
in the open air should also benefit you
Fluid extract of dandelion, two tea
sDoonfuls taken every night, or oftener
if necessary, is mild vegetable cathar-
tic.
Apply oxide of zinc literally as re-
CURED, for chafed skin that is raw and
infamed.
Tablets of reduced iron may be used
with good effect for anaemia. The dose
is one tablet after each meal
For pharyngitis, get some lozenges of
muriate of ammonia and chlorate of pot
ash and let one dissolve slowly In the
mouth as required.
Water of ammonia is a very good rem
edy for heartburn, but it should be used
with caution. The dose is from ten to
twenty drops we'll diluted with water.

The Necessity for Economy.

penditure as we'll as in public admins
tration, James J. Hill says in his con-
Guiding article in the Worlds Work:
The ideal of intelligent economy must be
restored; let the rule be that every dollar
unprofitably spent marks a crime against
pOsterity just as much as does the dissipa-
ton of material resources.
Expenditure must be cut down all along
the line, since a comparison with twenty
years ago shows that it might be cut in
two without injury to any real interest.
Credit everywhere should be conserved
by sharp scrutiny of new bond issues.
The nation should reserve them for the
crisis of war. No state need ever borrow
again if it is wisely and honestly governed.
The city that has fifty years of corporate
life behind it, or has found it necessary to
refund any portion of its bonded debt in
stead of paying at maturity, should be
slow to draw upon it's credit or mortgage
the lives of it's children yet unborn.
Stop grating, the offspring of public ex-
travagance and the parent of civic decay {;
not only the gross form that robs treas
uries, but the more subtle and more dan
gerous species that infects the masses of
the people themselves.
Individual and public economy; just
distinction between high standard of COM
fort on one side and vulgar ostentation or
criminal waste on the other; check on
income wasting, debt creation, and credit
infiation-these are the essentials of the
new and better conservation.
1t must be conceded that this is good
advice. and that it is needed at the pres
ent time.
What is said in favor of economy by
individuals is even more pertinent than
the other part of Mr.. Hills advice, for
the universal return to economy on the
part of the individuals could not fail to
be reflected in more careful expenditures
by local communities, by states and by
the federal government itself. What
Mr.. Hill calls the Financial delirium"
of the moment cannot last. The stage of
exhaustion has not been reached, but
there must be a stop for breath.

Farming for Profit.

There are two things necessary in
farming for profit, and one is as neces-
sary to success as the other. The first
is to grow the crop; the second is to
dispose of it to advantage. Bolton Hall
writes to the New York Tribune quoting
a letter he has received from Florida
giving the experience of a woman who
was fully qualified on the agricultural
side to make the experiment of market
gardening a success, but who has suf-
fered failure The experience is worth
noting for the instruction of others:
She is one who can make anything grow.
She found the winter delightful in Florida
the business of raising vegetables, ETC.,
there most interesting-everyth growing
rapidly and no weeds to interfere; immense
crops and luxuriant growth; several
changes of crops on the same ground;
everything to encourage, though labor ex-
pensive and scarce. But the trouble begins
when you are ready for market! Freights
average about so per cent. of gross pro-
ceeds in addition, there are the 10 per cent.
commissions and the obvious and undoubted
dishonesty of dealers and commission mer-
chants at selling points She tried almost
every large city in the Union-"Account
der:'' eRotten;'' inferior quality Market
overstocked," and, in some cases.
Dumped Many of these comments
know to be lies, for crates OF some ship
ments have reached me in an out of the
way place in beautiful condition. The aver
age of her net proceeds did not equal cost
of raising! She has sold out, and says now
everybody wants to sell. She got cost of
land and improvements and something more.
but not enough to pay for her trouble and
labor If you remain there after March you
are sure to get malaria. Her son was SO
ambitious Git was to be his farm he worked
like slave from o'clock every morning
and remained all last summer, and is paying
for it now.
Market gardening in the outskirts Of
Northern cities has its drawbacks due
to the sterner climate and to lack of
soil as fertile as that which can be found
in Florida But there is a great advan-
tage in being near to the market.

HINDU METHODS OF COOKING.
Said to Save Nutriment in Vegetables
That Americans Lose.

In India it is literally a case of being
a vegetarian or starving, for the Hindus
of Hindustan, taking them almost as a
whole, are enjoined by their religion to
abstain from eating meat. They are not
allowed even to open the shell of an egg
because by so doing they would destroy
the life within it.
Thus they are compelled to subsist on
a vegetarian diet or go hungry. But if
the cooks in India were to prepare their
vegetables for the table as do the wom-
en- of America, writes Saint Nihal Singh
in The Nautilus, it is certain that the
Hindus would be meat eaters-it would
be impossible for them to live on vege-
tartan diet.
This for an essential reason. The
American cook boils all the flavor as
well as the vitality out of the vegetables
and throws it away. The Occidental
cook declares this operation is necessary,
as the flavor of the vegetable is too
strong and pronounced if the water is
not drained away from it. Be that as it
may the result is that the food has lost
much of its nutriment and is useless to
build up OF sustain the body. Moreover.
the boiling process renders the dish more
or less insipid in flavor
The East India cook works On a di-
rectly opposite principle. The woman of
India is taught that the food must be
cooked in its own steam, or with just
enough water to generate steam to cook
it, and every drop of moisture must be
evaporated before the food is served I'M
less it is to be eaten with a gravy or
shorba, in which case a small quantity
of liquid is allowed to remain On it.
But as a usual thing not drop of wa
ter is drained away. This would be
looked upon as positively sacrllegious and
wasteful by the East Indians. The
American throws away as useless every
day what would keep an East Indian
family from starvation.
This fact was demonstrated when
during siege the Indian soldiers re-
ouested that the water in which the rice
was cooked alone should be issued to
them. while the rice itself might be served
to the English soldiers. This was done,
and the native sepoys apparently were
as well fed as their white brothers.

A Costly Lesson in Agronomy.

A fact of great interest to analyzers
and doctors" of soils known as agrOn-
omists in agricultural colleges is reported
from Topeka, Kansas, in the purposeful
destruction by fire of the great Well
house apple orchard, on the main line of
the Santa Fe railroad, in Usage county,
near Wakarusa. The Wellhouse orchard
was the second largest in the state, and
when recently flames were sent through
it under the impulse of a strong wind it
is estimated that more than forty-flve
thousand live apple trees were destroyed.
The story of this orchard is one Of
misdirected energy that could have been
put to other and more profitable enter
prises had the courageous owner known
anything about the soil upon which he
set out his apple trees twenty years ago.
The orchard embraced eight hundred
acres, upon which siXty-five thousand
trees were set out The trees grew prom
isingly, but when they reached the age
at which fruit was expected as a re-
ward for money investment, labor and
patience they failed. Then the owner
investigated and found that the soil was
not adapted for apple-growing; but hav-
in the orchard ION his hands" and being
unwilling to apply the match or the axe
at that time, he waited fifteen years in
the hope that nature might work a
change in his favor. Occasionally he
would secure a light crop, and one year
the apples he managed to pick brought
five thousand dollars in the market. But
this did not pay, and the land was di-
vided and sold.
The new owners will grub out the
roots of the burned trees, and sow grass,
corn and other crops. They have doubt
less informed themselves as to the suit
ability of the soil for these products.
They certainly have had an example of
the unwisdom of proceeding without in
formation in this regard in the twenty
years of failure experienced by the own
err of the big Wellhouse orchard, which
was spectacular only in it's size and in
its fiery ending.
