Kindness to Dumb Animals.

From the Columbus Dispatch.
Kansas City is going to try to de-
velop a system by which teachers in
the public schools will be required to
spend half an hour each day in teach
ing children kindness to dumb amin
ais. The humane society of that city
has been asked to draw up bill and
present to the. legislature which will
make this compulsory. Certainly par
ents should lead in such instruction,
and no child should be permitted to
have pet cat, dog or bird, unless it
is treated kindly. Such home instruc-
ton, extended by teachers in the
schools, will have lasting benefit on
children.
Cruelty is oftener due to thought
lessness than to a real intention of be-
ing unkind, and word in time may
prevent it. There is financial side
to the treatment of animals, especial
ly to those on the farm. Neglect and
cruelty there lessen the value of the
stock, and the prices they might bring.
Animals left out in all kinds of wealth
er are incapable of the best work, and
certainly the selling price is lessened.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
How New York Wastes Money.


From the New York World.
A committee appointed by Mayor
Gaynor is preparing full list of land
belonging to the city for which no use
has yet been found Parcels worth
s1S.000,000 will be reported to the
sinking fund commission. The water
department alone has seventy use
less acres OF Jerome Park reservoir
lands, worth $4,000 a lot or more; and
parcels in Westchester county bought
years ago, never needed and almost
forgotten. There is 100000 worth
of school sites, often taken at extrav-
agant prices to enrich politicians.
There are Hunts Park and Kissena
Park OF malodorous memory. Scarce
ly department that has not had I'M
needed land sold to ii. AT a moder-
ate estimate s1O,000.o00 worth of this
land is SO situated that it will never
be needed and may best be sold On
that sum the city now pays four and
one-Quarter per cent interest, or $425.-
900. II the lands were sold. the city
would presently get more than $780,
900 in taxes from them-a net gain
sufficient to pay the interest on six or
eight miles of local subways. This is
only one of hundred forms in which
graft and waste have pinched New
York. If for ten years only the city
administration will keep necessarily
at the work of undermining methods,
eliminating graft, collecting the public
dues, reforming its bookkeeping, STAN
dardizing and watching it's purchases
and if meantime it pursues a progress
i've policy of rapid transit and dock
improvement, we may easily enjoy
the lowest city taxation rate in the
country.

New York Feb. 22.-During the re-
cent Chapman-Alexander evangclistic
meeting In Brooklyn noon revivals
we're held at the Opera house. One
day the early arrivals mt the theater
were surprised to find the stage occu-
pied by ballot dancer rehearsing an
oriental dance. During the morning
hours the stage was always used for
rehcarsals, but as rule care was tax
en- to stop the rchcarsals some time
before the time set for the revival On
this occasion. however. the rehearsal
was continued little too long IL
Is an Interesting fact that OH the fol.
lowing day. by strange coincidence
n large number OF the revivalists ar
rived at the opera house more than
half an hour ahead of the time set for
the meeting.
When the first subway line in New
York was opened to traffic in 1904.
there were many persons who, realiz-
ing the enormous cost of the tunnels,
seriously doubted that the traffic
would ever pay fair return upon the
invested capital. The figures publish
ed after the subway had been in op-
Grafton for one year dispelled all mis-
givings as to the profitableness of the
system; but even that favorable show.
ing was not believed to indicate that
there would be any appreciable in
crease for many years. Yet, after
three years of operation the ticket
sales on one single section. between
Ninety-sixth street and South Ferry,
were greater than on the entire sys.
tenn during the first year of operation.
During the year 1910 the ticket
sales for the entire system aggregated
27O.321, 400. against 116.2O9.313 in 1905
This shows that the traffic has more
than doubled during the last five
years. The greatest increase was re.
above Ninety-Sixth street, which in
creased from 3. 1858 in 1906 to
80, 752,66S in 1910.
Some of the large clothing manu-
facturers in this city, who depend for

Gently, after they had modernized
their establishments by installing ell

ly the irons for pressing the finished
garments were heated on stoves, but
a great deal of time was lost by that
