WOMEN SPEND NINE BILLION
YEARLY IN UNITED STATES

That over ten billion dollars are
spent in the United States annually
for food, shelter and clothing, and that
ninety per cent of this vast sum is
spent by women who have had no
training which would fit them to spend
this money wisely and to the best ad-
vantage, is stated in the new bulletin
of the course in home economics at the
University of Wisconsin, which has
just come from press.
In any other phase of life, it is
pointed out, the persons entrusted
with such expenditures would be re-
quired to pass through rigid training,
but the great mass of women who
spend the family incomes in America
have no adequate knowledge of money
value, cost of production, the reasons
for selecting materials of certain kinds,
the essentials of sanitary home, and
above all, know practically nothing of
the nutritive value of different foods
or of the relative cost of foods.
They are subject to the skill of the
advertiser without any knowledge that
will enable them to determine whether
certain advertised commodity is
worth what is claimed for it or wheth-
err it will be of any value in the home.
The state is taxed to provide in
struction in the principles governing
the production of raw material and
the manufacture of the raw material
into the finished product. Women
should be trained to use this material
so that there will be the least possible
waste of time or money and the best
results obtained. If the mother of the
house does not understand the prin-
ciples of food selection, how to choose
clothing materials that are worth the
price asked for them, and how to man
age the money affairs of the home so
as to have her books show substantial
balance in. the bank every month, the
whole efficiency of that home will be
lessened.
That women are coming to recog-
nize the Importance of training in the
principles which underlie management
of home is shown by the phenomenal
increase in the enrolment in the course
of home economics at the University
of Wisconsin during the past year.
A year ago at the commencement ex-
ercises of the university just one de-
gree in home economics was granted to
student. At commencement this
year fifteen young women received the
degree. The enrolment in the course
during the past year increased over
one hundred per cent over that of the
school year 1909-10.

Paper Hints.

To straighten out paper that hf

curve away from you, and run it ove
the sharp-not the curved or bevele
edge of table. 1t is fiat immedi
ately.
The sharp edge is good, too. fol-
tearing paper; better than a paper
cutter, in fact. Draw the paper to be
cut straight and quickly across the
edge, and there will be a clean tear,
produced equally we'll in tissue or
wrapping paper.
1t is not generally known that
bread-crumbs are the finest of cleans
ers for white paper Rub an old
crust of stale bread over the paper,

Chiefly through the persistent effort
of Assemblyman Ellingson a law has
been enacted prohibiting intoxicated
persons from being passengers on
trains and prohibiting the drinking of
intoxicating liquor on trains. 1t is
made the duty of conductors to arrest
persons violating these provisions, and
failure to perform such duty subjects
them to punishment. While the meas
ure is a moderate one, simply pre-
scribing a rule for preserving order
and decency on trains, it was bitterly
fought by the liquor interests. AS no
stretch of the imagination can make
this law seem a restriction on personal
liberty or a restraint on legitimate
traffic in liquor, the opposition of the
brewers is hard to explain. With all
their Wanted claims of sincere desire
to "uplift" the liquor business, liquor
organizations seem uniformly opposed
to every proposition to restrict any of
the evils that flow from the traffic.

Pinchot and CLAWS were fired from
the interior department because they
insisted on telling the people the truth
about the efforts of the Morgan-Gug-
genheim syndicate to gobble up the rich
natural resources of Alaska. Now
raft's attorney general, Wickersham,
advises that DR.. Wiley be fired because
he has been making things warm for
the dealers in impure food. DR.. Wiley
has for years been one of the most in
dustrious and persistent workers In the
federal employ, analysing and testing
the materials and methods used in pre-
serving meats and other food products
and assisting in ferreting out manufac-
turers and dealers who fraudulently
palm off embalmed products as fresh.
1t will be recalled that few years ago
he, in conjunction with j. R. Emery,
Wisconsin Food Commissioner, and
others, exposed the widespread use OF
benzoate of soda as food preservative.
Benzoate was conclusively shown to be
harmful itself when used in consider
able quantities, and moreover, by dis
guising the characteristic taste and
smell of partially decomposed meat it
assists in committing fraud. Secretary
of Agriculture Wilson overruled DR..
Wiley in his position regarding benzo-
ate of soda, telling the dealers to go
ahead with it's use, so long as they
didn't use enough to be absolutely poi
sonous, but he couldn't prevent the
Doctor from telling the facts to the
public and the publicity given the mat
ter hurt the trade in embalmed meat.
No wonder the Taft administration IS
giving DR.: Wiley the ak.

TOWNSHIP SYSTEM OF SCHOOL
GOVERNMENT ABOLISHED

Saturday, June %, 1912, sees the end
of the township system of school gov
eminent in Wisconsin. The township
may still be the school district, but
must be organized and run as an in
dependent district. The town board of
supervisors, after granting a public
hearing, shall proceed to create one or
more suitable Independent districts.
This meeting shall be held between
March, and June l, 1912, and the re-
sulting order shall be effective June %
following.
In theory the township system seems
ideal, but so many abuses and defects
were connected with it's practical ad-

BANKERS ASSOCIATION
WILL AID FARMERS

At their recent convention at Mil
waukee, the State Bankers Associa-
ton unanimously decided to aid in the
distribution of pure seed grains and
the dissemination of agricultural knowl-
edge through the medium of farmers
meetings and exhibitions. Prof. R. A.
Moore of the College of Agriculture of
the University of Wisconsin, who fos-
tered this project, believes that re-
lationship of mutual cooperation and
kindly feeling should exist between the
farmer and the banker Each can
materially assist the other and their
united effort should greatly improve
rural conditions and practices.
The plan as outlined by the depart
ment of agricultural extension of the
university will involve the division of
the state into circuits, three to five
banks composing each circuit. The
college of agriculture will determine
the circuit meeting dates and will send
a representative to each gathering.
The local committee in each case will
make arrangements for the meeting
and will solicit prizes from the local
business men for the farm products
exhibited.
Scrub grains will be exhibited at the
initial meeting. Subsequent to a talk
on their Improvement, each exhibitor
will be presented with pure bred seed
furnished by the college, which he will
grow and show the next year, in addi-
ton to his scrub varieties, for com
parative purposes. The original cir
cult must be maintained for two years
and then if the project proves success
full, new circuits may be organized.
Winners in the local circuits will be
allowed to exhibit their produce at the
annual bankers show which will be
held during the Farmers Course at the
college of agriculture at Madison.

The following is part of the con-
Guiding remarks of Senator LaFollette
in his speech against the reciprocity
bill:
Mr.. President, | have reviewed the
record of this administration to no
good purpose, if | have not made it
plain that the great issue for which
Roosevelt appealed to the public con-
fidence, for which the progressives
have been fighting for years, is not
the tariff, not railway regulation, not
conservation. 1t is these, but, Sir, it
is more than all these combined. 1t is
for Justice, eternal and everlasting
Justice for every human being, against
organized selfshness and power.
will have no quarrel with men. |
attack no individual. But, Sir, no
eminence of position in any party or in
government shall protect from de-
served criticism the bad record of any
public servant.
If we who oppose this legislation
were seeking the easier way in public
life, with the newspapers arrayed so
generally in support of it, we should
have quietly acquiesced. But, Sir, |
have never sought the easy way.
Against every attempt to strengthen
and entrench special interests, in what
ever form it is presented, whether it
be winning or losing fight, I shall
oppose it to the end.
And so say regarding this bill. No
man should mistake the true meaning
of the contest involved. 1t is more
than question of tariff rates. 1t is
bigger than mere opportunity for
party advantage. 1t is the fight be-
tween the plain people and confederated
privilege.

1t is quite common American Gus
tom to poke fun at and jeer at legis-
latures for spending so much time in
tinkering the laws. Quite frequently
newspapers and individuals bewail the
fact that the legislature is in session,
and rejoice when it adjourns. We are
told that it unsettles business to have
the legislators tinkering the laws, and
probably it does. just as house clean
ing unsettles the domestic economy
for the time being, and the process of
erecting an addition to building inter-
feres temporarily with the use of the
building. Usually these remarks are
intended as jokes, ranking in pungency
and fitness with the mother-in-law
joke, but some people take them SER
iously as they do reciprocity and Fed
eral court decisions.
AS a matter of fact the average
legislator of today is quite as patriotic
as the average citizen, quite as indus

critics would study over the 695 meas

ture in this Year of our Lord 1911.
occupying some As newspaper pages of
fine print; and in addition study the
800 odd bills that failed to pass, in
volving many economic problems of
grave Importance, he would easily
arrive at the conclusion that the Wis
consn legislator earns his paltry $500
salary. If he would consider care
fully few of the important measures,
the workmen's compensation law, the
industrial commission, the corrupt
practices act, or any of a dozen or
more fundamental changes in our sub
stantive law, he would readily admit
the incalculable value of the work of
the session. Joking has it's place, and
is of high value, but carping criticism
of the above sort is as little related to
real joke as would be the appearance
of clown in the pulpit during relig-
ious services.

The Controller Bay affair Is typical
OF the Taft administration attitude
toward the country's natural re-
sources. Controller Bay is the only
sea port available for a large section
of the most productive part of Alaska,
and if it were controlled by trans
portatlon company that company
would have an absolute monopoly and
be enabled to levy enormous tribute on
freights. To avoid such monopoly,
President Roosevelt withdrew from
entry the land skirting the shore of
Controller Bay and urged that pro-
vision be made for leasing dock priv
ileges under restrictions that would
prevent monopoly. Taft's friend,
Ballinger, concealed the withdrawal,
reopening large part of the land for
entry. This was not done in the usual
way, by public proclamation, but Sc
cretly, in characteristic Taft fashion.
When the general public discovered
Ii1C VIC loiiII IlCu OScII ISOpcilSu, IL
was found that a considerable part of
it had been entered by parties who
proposed building a railway. Knowl-
edge of the reopening had apparently
been passed to these parties alone.
In speaking of the matter in an
editorial in the Outlook, Roosevelt
says: Controller Bay, under actual
conditions, offers the only chance, or,
at any rate, very much the best
chance, for free outlet from
the great Bering river coal
fields. 1t was the imperative duty of
the government service to keep this
outlet free and not to dispose of it to
any individual or individuals. Whether
there was or was not improperly in
the way in which the elimination was
brought about, whether or not there
was improperly in the action which
resulted in the instant filing of claims
by Mr.. Ryan and others, does not 60
to the root of the matter The root of
the matter is that no such elimination
should have been made by the interior
department.

A compilation of the Wisconsin fish
and game laws for 1911-12 issued by
State Fish and Game Warden John A.
Scholtz calls attention to the fact that
the deer law remains the same, in that
only one deer may be killed by a
hunter. Reports have been circulated
that the legislature authorized the
shooting of two deer and that the sea-
son was also changed. The open sea-
son for deer extends from Nov. 10 to
80, but shooting of these animals is en-
tirely prohibited in certain counties.
The hunting season for rabbits, SPUR
rels and other game and regulations
concerning fishing and bird shooting
are also given.

We owe it to the community in

in every way possible that will be to
it's advantage. Our neighbours pros

We should bear this in mind in buying
our goods. We can afford to pay our

expended with our own citizens will
help in sustaining our schools, church
