know what chard Is. 1t is a species
OF beet grown for its leaves and not
for the root. In summer the stout
leaf-stalks make very good substi-
tute for asparagus after the aspara-
gus season Is over. The leaves can
be pulled of all through the summer
and the old roots can be hilled up
slightly and will stand all winter and
give early shoots in the spring. But
at that season we have asparagus
and do not need 1t. so that 1t is best
TO grow IL from seed every spring.
To have good leaves the plants
should be thinned TO stand 3 inches
apart in the rows, and the more
manure used the ranker the growth.
The common variety has silvery leaf
stalks, but | have had some with
pink stalks and some with golden
yellow ones. The common white is
the best.

Red wheat in Kingfisher, Blaine
and Major counties, and few sec
tions in Kansas where pure seed
may be obtained Many farmers
feel that if their wheat is sound and
plump and weighs heavy that it is
an outrage to make a strong cut in
price because it is mixed or has
yellow berries, but actually the i'm
pure wheat should bring less than
it does and it would bring much
less if the market was well stocked.
A barrel of flour from pure Tur-
key Red wheat will make, at least,
800 'one pound bakers loaves of
bread; a barrel of flour from berry
or mixed wheat (soft or yellow
wheat) will make as little as 26O
one pound loaves, a difference of 60
loaves per barrel in favor of the
three-fourths of all the bread used
in the cities of the United States
by bakers. and all the large bakeries
keep an accurate record of the pro-
duction of bread per barrel of flour.
Many large bakeries make 10000
and upward loaves of bread daily,
and the difference of even a few
loaves per barrel of flour makes
an enormous difference in the years
profits, so that the demand for
pure hard wheat and the cut in
price made for mixed wheat is a
reasonable business proposition. It
is a general impression among
well informed men that the pure
red hard wheat yields more in most
sections of Oklahoma than the mix
ed wheats.

WHAT YOU NEED IN SUMNER.

On the sweltering hot days OF
summer, when every one is striving
to keep reasonably cool and com
Portable. most people are apt to
drink very literally of ice water.
Ice water cools the blood tem-
porarily. but cools it so suddenly
that there is speedy reaction
which makes the body warmer than
it was before. Ice water does not
prevent the fatigue, WEAKNESS and
general heaviness which excessive
heat brings on.
That is why nearly everybody likes

ling soft drink. Fan-Taz not only
coos the heated blood-it refreshes'

makes it appeal to young and old
alike. 1t is at once a delight and
comfort in hot weather, and the
thousands who ask for it at soda
fountains, day in and day out, are
the best possible evidence that it is
the ideal summer drink. Many peo
pie, too, keep a case of it in bot
ties, in the house all the time. This
means that they not only have an
antidote for the heat always at
hand, but that they are never at a
loss for a delicious beverage to
serve visiting friends.

MISS MARY COLEMAN SUGGESTS
A HUSBANDS TEN COMMAND
MENTS.
ADDRESS MOTHERS CONGRESS
Women the Real Home Makers" the
New York Lawyer Says, because
They're Better Financiers and
Don't Desert Their Families"

New York, July Miss Mary
Coleman, a lawyer and suffragette,
takes issue with the recent address
of Mrs. f. T. Dubois of Idaho before
the Mothers Congress, in which she
declared men to be the real home
makers.
when conditions are as they
should be-" Miss Coleman said
"homemaking is divided equally be
tween the man and the woman. But
under existing conditions woman is
more often the real homemaker. /
am not speaking idly can prove
what ! say For every one woman
in a thousand who deserts her home
and children, there is one man in
every twenty-five who deserts his.
Miss Coleman suggested the follow
| ing ten commandments for the Am.
erican husband:
t. Treat your wife as a human
being You will find she has many
/ human qualities in common with
yourself.
2. Do unto your wife as you
would she should do unto you.
3. Give your wife square deal
/ BE honest with her.
4. Do not act toward your wife
as Judge and jury. You have nc
more right to acquit or pass sent
ence than she has.
3. Realize that little nonsense
now and then is relished by the best
OF men-and women.
6. Remember, you owe your child
something more than mere financial
support. Do not leave the develop
ment of its intelligence to your wife
and then disparage her efforts.
7. DO not refuse to be guided by
your wife Remember that in many
cases her judgment is equal to you;
own, and in still other cases super
ior.
s. Never forget that your wife,
interests are your interests.
3. Remember your wife has an
equal right to your common income
She more than earns her half in
her household duties.
10. Do not forget man and woman
were created for each other. 1t was
intended that they should work to-
gether for their mutual good.
But to revert to the first ques.
tion,' continued Miss Coleman, "is
man or woman the real homemaker?
In my judgment, one of the prin.
! cipal reasons why women are the
homemakeI's is because they are bet.
ter financiers than men. If the
foundation of the home depended
! upon the manner in which a man
could make his money cover ex.
penses, the home would not be long
in existence.
