CONSERVE TIE MAN
ON THE FARM

Among all the ideas that have been
advanced about conservation. none
seem to have included the most i'm
poriant of them all The man himself
is vastly more important. and more
worthy of conservation than any ma
terial thing he may have on the farm.
or even the farm itself. Without him
all else would be of no account.
There are yet farmers who have an
exalted idea of the value of muscle n
farming operations and who pride
themselves upon their early rising and
long hours of work. Such men des-
pise modern machinery and think its
use indicates laziness. They get out II
bed at o'clock every morning. winter
and summer. whether there is any
thing to do or not. They deprive them
selves OF opportunities for reading and
self-culture because they can't keep
awake after supper and they wear
out years sooner than they should.
Such men we're necessary in pioneer
DAYS. when both methods and machin-
cry were imperfect. when there wee
more farmers than of other classes
and their products in small demand
and low priced. With the crude meth
DDS and machinery of early days. long
hours and great physical strength AMI
endurance we're necessary. A prem
ium was placed upon this method Of
living and working. and he who dared
to lie in bed till rested did so under
the penalty OF being called lazy.
Modern knowledge, conditions and
machinery have removed the neces-
sity for such ways of living. says the
Kansas Farmer. and have taught the
farmer that he is business man and
not a day laborer. and that he may
and should use business methods and
hours on the farm. The successful
business man works hard and puts in
more hours during the year than does
the farmer. but he takes care OF him
self. His hours OF rising are fixed -
habit, so that he gets up when he is
rested and when the day has begun.
He could do nothing during the azoic
hours of very early morning. which
are very profitably spent in resting.

THINGS ALL OUGHT TO KNOW

isfaetory Proof Of why God Permits

fractory froof OF why Zoo FsfWfts
Evil"
One of the questions which comes 30
nearly every thinking mind today is,
why does God permit eyilr" As we
LOOK about us In the world we observe
that II is filed with sorrow and trouble.
sickness and pain and every trial we
could enumernte. and we cannot help
wondering WHY GOD ALLOWS 1T.
We realize that lie is almighty aud
that lie could prevent it II lie wished.
We read In His Word that He i more
willing to do for His children than
are earthly parents for theirs. and we
know how much that means; yet Of
tentImes II seems that those who try
TO do and live right have the most
trouble. This question Is made very
clear In book entitled. The Divine
Plan of the Ages" Every statement
is backed by Scripture. and shows that
while God does not sanction evil HE
HAS HAD a PURPOSE IN ALLOW

MEETING HELD
SUNDAY NIGHT

The union services at the First Meth

tended by an audience that taxed the
capacity of the large auditorium, Sun
day school room and gallery of the
building. The meeting was in the in
terest OF the two reform measures TO
be voted on ut the election tomorrow.
known us the statewide prohibition
amendment and the search and seizure
bill. Judging from the interest AMI
enthusiasm OF the meeting these meas
ures will receive a big vote in Can IN
City.
The speakers OF the evening were
the Rev. o. 5. Reed. pastor OF the
Christian church. and DR.. f. II. Fulk-
erson, returned missionary and form-
er diplomatic representative OF the
United States government in China
and Japan. The addresses were bo.n
masterpieces of argument and oratory
and were enthusiastically received hv
the vast audience present; the speak
ers being frequently interrupted ~
generous applause.
DR.. Reed spoke OF the operation Of
prohlbltory laws from both a CONNER
cial and moral standpoint. By stalls
tics he proved that in the prohibition
states OF Kansas. Oklahoma. Maine and
others the consumption of liquor had
decreased marvelously in those states.
and that crime and poverty had de-
creased in like proportion. BY graph
ic illustration and word pictures the
speaker held his audience in rapt at
tention throughout his discourse.
DIR. Fulkerson told of his experience
in oriental countries in the suppress
sion of the opium trade. Said the
speaker. About the greatest curse
of America is the non-enforcement u
law. We can learn lessons in this
matter from some of the despissd
heather nations. For example: Six
years ago China passed law for the
gradual elimination of the opium curse
in that country. The law called for
the reduction OF the area planted %
poppIes one-tenth each year for ten
years. \ syndicate in the Yang Use
district failed TO observe the law and
planted their full acreage. Agents OF
the government repaired to the place
and dug up the poppy fields and warn
ed the owners After the government
agents were gone the fields were again
planted. The agents returned, again
dug up the plants and in addition dug
deep holes on the premises. threw the
owners in and covered them with
about ten feet OF earth Other grow
ers in the empire Immediately took
notice and there was no more viola
tion of the law would not advise
such drastic measures in this country
but we are certainly too lax in our law
enforcement
"In Japan" the speaker continued.
"they found by scientific investigation
that the use OF cigarettes and tobacco
generally was deleeterious to the
youth Of the country. so they passed a
law that no boy or young man under
twenty-one could use tobacco. and tns
laws was enforced to the letter

Fourteen hundred fathers were
called before one Judge in one OF our
large cities this year because they
didn't provide the necessaries OF life
for their children. They were able
to do it when the judge. either gave
them some straight talk that started
thinking or promised a term in the
workhouse.
An eX-mayor OF another OF our large
cities who has a good income, is in
the habit of travelling and giving de-
lightful dinners wherever he stops.
These dinners are much written about
in society paragraphs as he is fond of
having dainty gold souvenirs placed
at each woman guests plate. Mean
while his own daughter. as a strug-
Cling student, had 10 take help from
her brothers till she became self-sup-
porting. Such cases as these are not
rare. only they are not made public,
as rule, through court proceedings.
Doesn't it look as If pity ought TO
begin at home?

him up to a feeling of compassion for

timid or apathetic. There was the
greater fear because the message OF
the governor suggested some legisla.
ton of a radical character.
The governors influence with the
legislature, more especially with the
house. was lost at the beginning of
the session and TO that circumstance
may be attributed In part, the modi.
fed character OF the legislation that
has been enacted.
We have spoken OF some fear that
was entertained OF the activity of the
labor element. That fear turns out TO

We do not mean 10 say that we be-

has been wisely done. Undoubtedly
some laws have been enacted. that,
for the good OF the state, should never
have been placed among the statutes.
Also, We believe the legislature has
been guilty OF sins OF omission. but
on the whole its work measures

commission or omission have been

Another thing worthy OF note. be

been the conservatism OF the house as

times, extreme radicalism and ex-

two reasons-one. the more conserva-

other, an III feeling between the
