when a woman with only IL
children and washtub makes q
quarter of a million dollars it is in
teresting," says the American mag
azine in the current number.
The infant Jane Applebee was
adopted by the Usage Indians. She
grew up, married and was left a
widow with a large brood of chill
dren as her only heritage.
At the washtub she earned
enough to feed her family and to
buy COW. That COW was the be-
ginning of her career in the cat
tile business.
The big cattlemen allowed her
to take all the orphan calves,
whenever the cows died. Other
wise the calves would have died
of starvation and neglect on the
plains. Silently and fearlessly
she roamed over the plains day
after day looking for motherless
calves.
That was many years ago. Soon
she began shipping cattle to the
market, at first in small lots, then
in herds. When she handled cat
tie in $4,000 punches she became
known as the Cattle Queen.

raiser. too. She brought up heI
own large family, adopted orphans
from city institutions and took
them to the ranch, where they
grew up in the out-of-door life. Al
eighty-two she is as active and
healthy as most women a score oi
years younger. She is the richest
member of the Usage nation and is
regarded by the Indians as a seer
and phophetess.

are often made of black material
with light linings. Evening gowns
are simply made and materials are
satin, crepe de chine, marquisette,

new. This reduces the alleged loss
to $4,000. If this loss be distributed
over period Of five years-a legti-
mate distribution, inasmuch as the as
sumed loss covered that period-this
makes so-called loss of $4,000 a
year. This leaves so-called loss of
$4,000 year to be distributed among
the 100000 and more children in the
schools, or about four and two third
cents apiece!
Thus, at this slight additional ex-
pense of four and two third cents,
each child in the State would be sup
piled with new and better books.
Surely this is gain and not Joss For it
is serious injustice to a child-an
injustice at once physical, intellectual,
and aesthetic-to put into it's hands
an old, defaced, and filthy book in
any study.
We have gone into these figures on
the assumption that the statement
that eighty per cent. of the books have
been changed is correct The cor
rectness of the statement we do not
admit. Exclusive "s copy books and
drawing books, which are destroyed
by use. supplementary English Clas-
sizes and duplicates. there were SO
books on the old list. OF this number
were readopted Ten were entirely
dropped from the list. Owing to the

it becomes necessary to add nine new
books to the list for high school use

hands of the child has not only paid
its price in use, but Is by contract
given an added definite value. ap-
proXimately fifty per cent. Of It's orig
inal cost.
The following analysis will show
that the apparent loss to the state
would in reality he only about $4,000
a year for the fiye-year period, or only
about 2-3 cents per child. instead of
the alleged loss of $500,0OO. AS 1t Is
claimed that the loss was entailed by
the assumed eighty per cent change.
then the entire value involved would
be upon this eighty per cent. or upon
100000 instead of $500.000. 1t is.
however. generally estimated by teach
ers and experienced book men that
the average life of text book-es-
pecially In tine lower grades-is from
one to three years. On a liberal al
lowance then, the books bought dur
ing the first three years OF the last
adoption period are not usable in
Gloss, though by the contract they
have been given an exchange money
value. This reduces the possible loss
to the books bought during the last
two years. or to two-fifths of $400, 900,
that is. $160,000. Now. not only have
these books paid their price in ac-
tual use, but they have an actual value
OF fifty per cent of their cost when
