that California has in the way OF flow
ers and shrubbery, merely by watering
and attending to it. I was really glad
to get back here and see the green
trees Of Our valley, for the boosted
California is dusty and dried up; they
have had no rain for five months and
only the irrigated yards are green.
These are beautiful and show that the
FL Pasoans have just as much chance
to have pretty yards as the Cali
fornians.
Pasadena, where they irrigate ev~
erything and oil their streets and
roads. is the prettiest spot around Los
Angeles. And that reminds me that
wish Ell Paso would do something to
keep down the dust on Arizona street.
Two or three dozen mules are taken
out this street every morning to work
in the eastern part of the city and the
cloud of dust is terrific. If we can't
have the street sprinkled, the city au-
thorities might have the mules taken
out one Of the paved streets"
Keeping Streets Clean.
Charles A Brann said: The most
interesting thing saw on my vacation
was the effort made in Los Angeles to
keep the streets clean. Men were busy
excavating for a new building on
Broadway. The horse pulled the heavy
loads Of dirt up the hill TO the street
There a man stood with a brush and
with it he cleaned off all the loose
dirt on the top Of the wagon and also
on the back. that none might fall on
the pavement as the wagon moved over
the streets.

sweeper brushing back the few hand

Beautiful Streets and Yards.
G. A. Martin said: st was interested
mostly in the beauties of the city of
Washington, the national capital.
Washington sets an example to the
rest of the world in beautiful parks
and shady streets. 1t has more really
beautiful parks, 1 am sure. than any
other city in the country and more
shade trees on its streets. wish every
FL Pasoan could see Washington; 1t
would make us all realize what a beau
tiful city Is worth.
'1 was more thoroughly convinced,
however. on this summers trip than
ever before. that Ell Paso as a city
beautiful is rapidly developing. We
seem to have more community interest
in making the city beautiful than most
eastern cities, although I believe many
western cities beat us in this respect"

firmly believed that a well arranged
system should be followed in bringing

the sturdiness which his four years
of life had given him went far to justi
fly her theories. His grandmother
however, was different-as grandmoth-
ers frequently are, with the unquali-

So when he vent this summer to
stay a few weeks with grandmother
there was joy in his heart at the
thought of the possibilities that lay
before him. And grandmother was SC

The per capital commerce Of Persia
based upon an estimated population OF
91z millions, is comparatively small,
being in 1sO9-lO less than IS. compared
with a per capita commerce of S3S for
the United States, $50 for France. s55
for Germany. and sl10 for the United
Kingdom. This relatively small for
eign commerce Of Persia is largely due
to the fact that that empire is lacking
in adequate means Of transportation
and communication Wheat, barley,
rice, fruits, silk. wool, cotton. gums
and other staples are produced in
great quantities, and lead. copper and
other mineral deposits abound, but
good roads and railways are few. thus
seriously handicapping transport to
points of distribution. The latest re-
ports show less than 100 miles of rail
way in all Persia As late as 1903 but
81 miles of carriageable roads had
been built though progress has been
made since that time. Telegraphs in
clude 6,3l2 miles of line and 10,754
miles of wire, connecting l31 stations.

How Women Lake Criticism.

In the Life of John Oliver Hoobes,
edited by her father, John Morgan
Richards, there is a slashlng arraign.
ment of the literary woman in her at.
titude toward those who criticize her
work. 1t is from the pen Of Moberly
Bell, the famous editor OF the Lon.
don Times. Moberly Bell and Mrs.
Craigie were personal friends, and the
latter wrote protesting against the
treatment that the Flute of Pan had
received at the hands of the Times
reviewers. In response the editor
wrote in part: There is one thing
and only one thing that the omnipo-
tent has absolutely failed to create. He
has made good women, bad women,
clever women, silly women, selfish
women and heroines of self-saerifice,
but he had never yet made woman
who could stand-I will not say ad-
verse criticism, but-one note of devi-
alton from absolute and unqualified
praise Of any of her literary efforts.
This is not in blame of anyone--un-
less the Creator-it is a law as Ger.
tain as the law of grayitation, and
there is and has never been any ex-
ception g it from Deborah to George
Eliot, and even later tthe assumption

TRADE OF PERSIA WITH THE
U. S. AND OTHER COUNTRIES

Persas trade with the United States
in the fiscal year 1914, according to
the official reports of the bureau of
statistics, department of commerce and
labor, amounted to $1.077 SOP, of which
imports from Persia were $1,$55, SOB
and exports to Persia, $21 1899. These
figures of imports, while small in COM
parison with those from other coun-
tries of similar population and size, are
much larger than in any earlier year.
In 1909 imports from Persia amounted
to SS50,000; in 1910, 100000; and in
1911, as above stated, over one million
dollars. Practically the entire imports
from Persia consist of wool carpets
and carpet wool OF the total imports
therefrom valued at $1,055, SOB, rugs
and carpets aggregated $944,561, and
wool suitable for the manufacture of
carpets, $S2.624. Various manufac-
lures of iron and steel supply most of
the relatively small exports to Persia
from the United States
Trade with the United States how
ever, forms very small proportion
of Persia's commerce. Official reports
of the Persian government covering
her fiscal year l9O9-l0. the latest per-
iod for which the statistics are avail
able, show that of the 422 million
krans Cor approximately 40 million

of the total was from Russia, 153 mil

We should think the amendment
which Senator Owen has made to his
bill providing for the creation of ma
tional department of health would re-
move all opposition to that measure,
except that which comes from people
who are opposed to all extension of
federal functions Certainly this
amendment squarely meets the objec-
tion of the League OF Medical Free
dom. although Tor that purpose it is
unnecessary. since the constitution it.
self is an ample guaranty against the
success of any effort that might be
made TO set up an orthodoxy Of medi-
cal practice. Even II there was any
desire. the attempt to set up state
school of medicine would have been
as futile as the attempt to set up a
state religion, and SO this amendment,
strictly speaking, Is supertuous. But
likewise il is innocuous, would not in
any way impair the salient purpose Of
the measure, and therefore 1t must be
gratifying as affording the prospect
that there has been removed the only
formidable obstacle to the doing Of
something that greatly needs to be
done, namely, the organization OF a
force with the dignity, the equipment,
the facilities and the power to fight
disease as vigorously as it ought 10
be fought and to promote the public
health. Dallas News
