4 NEW DISH.

There was recently presented to q newly married young woman in Balti- more such a unique domestic proposi- ton that she felt called upon to seek expert advice from another woman whom she knew to possess cOnsidera- ble experience in the cooking line.
 Mrs. Jones' said the first mentiOn- ed young woman. as she breathlessly entered the apartment of the latter. I'm sorry to trouble you. but I must have your advice"
 What is the trouble. my dcar?'
 Why. I've just had a phone message from Harry. saying that he is going out this afternoon to shoot clay pig cons. Now. he's bound to bring a lot home and I haven't the remotest idea how to cook them. Won't you please tell me?"-St. Paul Dispatch

industry would grow by leaps and bounds. The oranges of Mexico come into the most direct competi- ton with Arizona oranges, because the season of shipment is the same.
 The tariff on oranges is one dollar per box.
 Notwithstanding this protective duty, Mexican orange growers are able to compete with the Salt River valley for the cream prices of the market-the early season.
 With the duty removed. how long would it be before Mexico with her cheap lands and cheap labor would force Arizona oranges out of the market?
 Under existing conditions the out look for the orange industry in this valley and in the Yuma valley and in the Florence valley is most flat tering Oranges alone will make faV- orably located land worth a thousand dollars an acre in these valleys-if the policy of protection is maintained.
 But if the duty on oranges is taken off. or even materially reduced. it will mean the serious crippling of the orange industry in this state.
 The democratic candidates for the senate and the house of representa- tives-Mark Smith, Henry Ashurst and Carl Hayden-are committed to the democratic policy of free trade.
 The republican candidates, Ralph Cameron. Hoval Smith and Jack" Williams. are strong advocates of the doctrine of protection for Arizona industries
 In order to stand up for Arizona industries. Cameron. Smith and Will jams would not have to oppose their party in cOngress-they would, on the contrary. be strictly in harmony with republican principles.
 Even if they wished to stand for the protection of oranges and other industries of Arizona, the democratic candidates would not dare stand out against their party-they would have to obey the party caucus.
 And as a matter of fact, these candidates are talking the regulation democratic free trade stuff.
 What do the citizens of Arizona think of the issue?

CARAVAN OF AUTOS
 ARRIVED YESTERDAY FOUR PARTIES MET ON THE TRAIL TO SUNSET. All Are Journeyins for Pleasure With Los Angeles as Their
 Destination.

As showing how the transcontinental Iautomobilc touring idea is already growing. it is Illuminating to reflect on the facts in connection with the latest rarty of four machines engaged in cross country flight. three of which ar riv-d yesterday The other may have got Tn last night or may not arrive un- til today.
 It has only been d few months since the first tranScontinental tours by pro- fessional pathfinding machines began to penetrate this region, and only a few weeks since the first tours con- ducted solely for pleasure began com ing this way. The present caravan of four machines is in reality four differ cnt touring parties that assembled by chance into one company. Not one of the four individual parties knew of the existence of the other when thsy set out upon their journeying.
 All of the tourists are travelling chiefly for pleasure, with California as their destination. Those who have ar rived announce that they are enjoying themselves hugely and that Arizona roads and Arizona scenery have fully repaid them for having come this way. The members of one party which is registered at the Ford hotel are oscar Nelson. Frsrk Nelson, Fl. A. Carlson ard their chauffeur. all from Rock ford. III. Immediately on their arrival they were found by F.. Truehaft of the Melczer company. who knew them all in Rockfol1, which was formerly his home.
 Frop, these gentlemen it was learned that the other party here is composed of a Denver man, with three compan- ions. one of the machines yet to arrive carries a Mir. Ford and his party of five from Cedar Rapids and the other now here carries NJ. D. Lapham and his wife, child and chauffeur. who come all the way from Rhode Island. The Nelson party said that one of the other machines was encountered near Great Bend, Kansas. the second one was picked up at Dodge City and the third at Raton, IN. M The machines tray |eled together until they got to Globe. where one of them laid up for a few hours for repairs. They all expect to spend a. few days here. resting and looking over the valley and at their leisure continue the trip to the coast. via the road race route. which means Yuma and san Diego

DR. OSLER'S JOKE"

Sir William Oslcr, who has just been appointed regius professor ol medicine at Yale for 1912, now con - fesses that his dictum that a man IS too old to work at 40 and ought [" be chloroformed at 6O was a joke. That memorable pleasantly was Siv- en to the world at the time that Dr. Osler was retiring from his connec- ton with Johns Hopkins university. and at that time he was himself near ing the dead line at which the anes thetic should be applied. But here we find him not only deep in the most active work of his career. but actually planning new and stren- uous program which will be mor5 eyacting than most men in their prime would care to undertake.
 If Dr. Osler really intended his epigram as joke it was rather a cruel and awkward effort. No doubt many men in this country have taken his statement seriously and grown discouraged. At the time he gave out the statement he said nothing about il being q joke. and he has been rather severely criticised for it since The most charitable view to be taken is that he probably never thought of the consequences and did not dream his remark would be so widely published
 It is the opinion of very good au thorities that life is not only grow ing longer but that the period os human usefulness is being heightened. Few men are worn out at 40 or 90 or even 60 years of age. AS in many other relations of life the personal equation must be taken into consid 20 and others never wear out A few days ago there came word that Murdo Mckenzie, a cattleman of the Pan handle, had been appointed manager of coco. .000-acre cattle ranch il Brazil. Now it happens that Mir. Me Kcnzie is 70 years of age. a time of life far beyond Dr. Oslcrs limit of usefulness. MT. Mckenzie is not only going to embark in an entirely new undertaking at his advanced age, but he has signed a contract for five . Here is an inspiring example of the virility of manhood which does not sink beneath the mere weight of ac- cumulated :'ears.
 It would not he at all difficult to quote many historic examples of men who did their very best work when they were over so years of age. At 40 years men and women are only reaching their prime. For a fine ex- ample of active maturity one need only point to the supreme court of the United States. where mag rificent group of old men are still in the harness in the high service Of their country. Of course, pr. Osler may laugh at his joke" but he has not contributed to the peace and con tentment of some thousands of men and women in this and other lands who have reached three score and find themselves still young in heart and active in body.-kansas City Journal

Which is the Honest Opinion?

According to the Democrat of yes terday evening,
 George Hunt measures up about right intellectually, and otherwise to suit the people of Arizona, for gov ernor"
 Only a few months ago the Demo- crat had the following to say of MT. Hunt:
 Tt seems that Arizona hasn't suf- ficient troubles at Washington with her self imposed representatives. Now Hunt, the boss egOtist and hot air artist of them all, has left for the scene of action. Poor old AriZo- ma"
 Which expression gives the Demo- crat's honest views of Mir. Hunt s fitness to be governor?

A Practical Question.

In an official consular report pub lished by the state department at Washington is a piece of news of profound significance from the view point of land owners in the Salt River valley. We quote:
 The shipment of oranges from San Luis Potosi, Mexico, to Chicago will commence about September 20. 1911, and it is now estimated that a total of about fifty-five cars will cover the seasons exports. as compared with thirty-four cars last year. These oranges all come from the Rio Verde valley. in the south-central part of the state. The freight from Rio Verde to Chicago is S1.25 gold per 100 pounds. and customs duty q gold per 100 pounds (which total S1.91 per eighty-five pound box), but they reach the American markets so early in the season that good prices are obtained"
 Within a year the importation of Mexican oranges from one district has increased from a total of 3i cars to 5 cars.
 On the west coast of Mexico, as well as the east coast above men, tioned, there are extensive valleys which are admirably adapted to the growing of oranges.
 The development of the industry is comparatively slow, because of the tariff which protects American grow CTS. but the business is steadily ex- handing. nevertheless. Under free trade with the United States, the

GETTING TIRED.

Fatigue That Follows Monotony OF
Work or Exercise.
1t is said that for horses the hardest
road out of London is the most level
one. There are no hills to climb and
descend, and the tired horse has no
chance to rest one set of muscles
while another works. Monotony pro-
duces fatigue, and because this par
ticular road is one dead. monotonous
level more horses die on IL than on
any other leading out OF London.
We can even take q charitable view
Of the time taken daily by the type
writer girl for the arrangement Of her
hair. Her fingers are congested by
the work OF writing and tired by con-
tact with the hard keys Of her ma
chine. and the different feeling OF her
hair and the little plays and move
ments OF her fingers in adjusting IL
are a distinct stimuIa ton and relief.
Fatigue following long continued ex-
ercise is really p mild form OF illness
which arises from overexertng some
one part OF the body. In writing. for
instance. the fingers move up and
down hardly more than a quarter of
sn inch as they travel across the page
Yet this is hard work for their little
muscles and burns up tissue in the
fingers very fast II rest intervals are
too short and infrequent. there is not
time for the removal OF the waste
products Of this destruction through
the normal channels of the body and
congestion results. The feeling OF
fatigue or pain that follows long con-
inued use of any OF the muscles is
due TO the influence of such poisonous
material. rs well as TO the stretching
Of the tissues caused by the pressure
of the blood which settles there.-PauI

Income Tax .in BaIance.

The income tax amendment 10 the
constitution Of the United States still
lacks the votes of FIVE states in its
favor to become effective. Out OF IS
states Of the union, already 80 have
ratified the amendment and only four,
Louisiana, New Hampshire, Rhode Is
land and West Virginia, have voted
against it. There are u states either
haze not voted upon the amendment
or have failed TO ratify it because one
house or the other OF their general
assemblies have not voted. The legs
latures of some of these states meet
oiennially.
Even If the ratification Of The
amendment should not be complete
this spring there is time for the re-
quired number Of states to fall in line
before the expiration Of the limit OF
time. The states in which no action
has been taken are Connecticut, Della
ware, Pennsylvania, Utah, Vermont
and Wyoming. Virginia rejected it by
a vote of one Of the houses. In New
New York, Minnesota, Florida and
Massa chusetts it has received the
sanction of the house.
Under the circumstances the pres
sure Of opinion upon the legislatures
that have not acted will naturally De
in favor of the amendment, and its
final success may be predicted with
tolerable certainty.

The Real yellow PERIL"

/ The Quincy Journal thinks that the
real yellow peril that is disturbing the
contentment of the people Of this coun
! try comes from within and not from
/ without. It says:
/ we have seen much in the maya
zines and newspapers during the last
| 10 years about the yellow peril For
a time writer's seemed to be possessed
with the idea that the Caucasian race
was in peril from the multitudinous
yellow man.
During the last five or six years
The Yellow Peril for the United States
has been Japan-little far-away Japan.
IF this great, big, rich country is in
danger from Japan "a country that
can be hidden in Texas. and separated
from us by some 1000 or 5000 miles
of water: if this big country is in dan
ger from that little country, it would
be wise for US to throw away our civil
ization and adopt theirs, and induce
them to come over here in large num-
bers, and by marriage infuse their
blood with ours.
, But this yellow peril is a humbug
"a hUmbUg used by politicians who
wish to milk the people Of more money
TO spend on our army and navy; a
humbug invented and nurtured by poll
ticiaus who want more money with
which 10 build battleships that will be
used II or IS years hence as targets
for newer battleships. It is humbug,
the purpose of which is to get more

profigate and wasteful ways. Any
humbug that will help to increase gov
eminent expense is good enough
for profligate politicians.
But there is a real yellow peril
And this yellow peril is vegetable, not
animal The real yellow peril in the
United States can be seen all around
US. 1t is making our lawns and fields
yellow. 1t is spreading rapidly to the
and injury of better veg
citation.
This yellow peril is the dandeliOn.
It is becoming a great nuisance. If
some successful way of fighting it is
not discovered il will take the country
It's seeds are carried by their dOwny
wings long distances. We know Of nc
other weed that is overspTeading the
country so rapidly. The dandelion is
harder to run out than the thistle-and
the thistle is a pretty tough customer.
It's seeds. toe. are carried much as the
dandeliOn seeds are. If dandelions are
in your yard, go after them and weed
them out But in the fields this can
not be done. Dandelions are taking
the hay fields; and blowing them IN
der seems TO increase the crop.
The dandelion is the yellow peril!'"
There are plenty of people in Rock
Island who win bear witness 10 the
logic Of the Journals assertions and
sustain il in its logic.

The Fortunes of the National Game.

The Fortunes of the National Game.
Last years world champion base
ball team-the Philadelphia Amer
icans-is playing the cellar cham
pion" rate this season. The plight OF
the Athletics is so far from their nor
NAL and ultimately assured standing
in the championship race that it fur
nishes evidence, TOO plain to be mis-
understood. that the happenings of the
first weeks of the season must not
be taken too seriously. The string Of
defeats charged up against the world
heaters of baseball tends powerfully
10 insure a fair trial for other teams,
in all OF the leagues.
Obviously, what has happened to
the crack club from Philadelphia may
happen 10 any other, however compe-
tent its players may be. II is a strik-
ing illustration of the delightful TN
certainties OF the national game and
it will long have a soothing effect upon
uneasy devotees OF baseball in cities
where the homo club gets a poor start
in early spring.

Healing by Prayer.

The statute of California contains
an act for the regulation of the prac-
tice OF medicine. concluding with q
proviso that nothing herein shall
be held to apply or TO regulate any
kind of treatment by prayer" In a
recent case the validity OF the sta
tute is assailed on an assertion that
the exemption quoted makes the
whole act unconstitutional, because
il gives 10 those who treat physical
ills by prayer, privileges and immun-
tiles not granted TO all citizens. The
court OF appeals holds that, if this
can be regarded an immunity. the
act allows every person such immun-
ity, for every one the same privilege
OF practicing such treatment. so the
statute is not unconstitutional.
In his opinion the. judge said: ut
has been said. More things are
wrought by prayer than this world
dreams Of Those who believe in
the teachings of holy writ attach
great Importance TO the efficacy of
prayer. Many examples of ii are Civ
en- in the new testament. For in
stance, when Peters wife's mother
lay sick Of fever we are told that
the Savior touched her hand. and
the fever left her; and she arose.
