Agricultural Experts In Great Demand

Manhattan, KANT begins to look
as if the demand for teachers of agri-
culture in the schools, for managers Of
farms, for experiment station assist
ants, is likely to prove big factor in
calling boys and girls from the farm.
This will not continue indefinitely of
course, but If these subjects are to be
taught and these positions filled, rs
per cent of them by farm children,
then the farms are certain to lose, at
least in the present generation. The
interest in agriculture has so rapidly
increased; so many positions are Of
fered by the United States govern
ment in investigational work; agricul-
ture is being taught in so many new
places, that the agricultural colleges
cannot nearly supply the demand. Not
so very long ago agriculture was
taught only in agricultural colleges.
Now it is taught in the rural schools,
county high schools, agricultural col
leges, parochial schools, Y. M c. A
curses and by correspondence schools.
Some states, notably Wisconsin, are
starting district agriculture colleges.

KITE-FLYING INCIDENT
WITH INTERNATIONAL TAIL

A kite-flying incident occurred in
Matamoros the other day which for
a short time threatened to result in
international complications. William
F. Russell of Guthrie Center, Ia,
G. A. r. veteran , who has been
spending the past two weeks here,
happened to be visiting in Mata-
moros. AS he was strolling along
the streets, he came upon some boys
who were ~endeavoring to fly a kite
that was inclined to be somewhat
balky. Mr.. Russell soon found him
self helping the boys to keep the kite
up, and succeeded in doing so for
a short time, but presently with the
~waywardness which kites sometimes
display, the flyer suddenly took a
header for the ground, and in doing
so pumped itself down on the horse
of a Mexican officer. The animal
became frightened and reared up,
breaking the bride and nearly
throwing the officer. The latter was
so provoked that he at once placed
Mr.. Russell under arrest and escort
ed him to the police headquarters.
Here Mr.. Russell experienced a bad
quarter of an hour" while endeav-
oring to explain and pacify the Of
fetal. Hat in hand, the old Union
vet stood bowling and apologizing
in the most courteous manner. A
small boy who understood both Eng
lish and Spanish stood by him and
helped him out of the dilemma. The
police were finally satisfied that no
offense was intended and permitted
Mr.. Russell to depart.

TOO TALKATIvE YANKEES

About the country's state, and things
That revolution always brings;
The conversation waxed quite loud,
And then attracted quite a crowd.
From out this crowd some soldiers
bold,
Stepped up and of our friends took
hold;
Then marched them off to durance
vile,
And locked them up to cool awhile
With trumpet's blare, at break O.
day,
They reused them from their beds
of hay;
And told them, prisoners, without
fail,
Must do the chores around the Jail
The sabbath, being the next day
brought
Some hope of rest, and holy thought;
And when our friends were told to
work
And do the chores they'd hoped to
shirk;
They flatly answered back, that they
Would do no work on sabbath day;
On which the sergeant told his squad
To let them feel a cold steel prod.
The soldiers drew their bayonets
then,
And walked behind the wondering
men;
And quickly prodded them in rear,
Where pants are thin, and get most
wear;
At this our friends made up their
mind,
Fear soldiers should prove more un-
kind;
To do the chores as they were hidden
all their vows to heaven.
When day was done, and work was
through,
They asked if yet the consul knew;
That they were guilty Of no schism;
Although they still were locked in
prison;
And begged the sergeant, while twas
light,
To send a man to tell their plight;
For Yankee consuls, we'll they knew,
Seldom slumber whole days through.
The mar returned, and with a smile,
Said Senior Consul's out awhile.
t should be said, 'mong other things
ike watches, pins, and diamond
rings;
roll of bills-two hundred plunks;
taken from them, in their
hunks;
md never have they been returned,
far as anyone has learned.
hat Monday morn they sent again,
find the consul, It's quite plain.
or down he came and made a talk,
pom which they were told to walk;
he door stood wide, the coast was
clear,
10 crime was charged, to cost them
dear;
tut cash, and trinkets from their
clothes,
Where these all went, Lord only
knows.
ur friends made off, and though
quite mad,
ct they were with their freedom
glad;
hey lost their money, rings and
pelf,
tut each was glad to save himself;
With nothing left, but clothes they
wore.
Twas natural therefore they felt
sore;
When they were forced to beg a loan
% pay their transportation home.
Vow hereby hangs a moral sad,
these Yankee men did nothing bad;
they simply talked as people will,
Kat table, when they've had their
fill.
30 don't converse in foreign lands,
About their various rebel bands;
least not loud, lest you be hidden,
70 also spend some days in prison.

After Christmas

The very day after Christmas last yesr
a wise woman bought q small 'blankbcoso
and wrote on the cover, MY Christmas
Book" At the top Of the FIRST page sne
wrote. christmas. 1911" Below II, ae'
the extreme left. she listed the names or
those with whom she was accustomed u
exchange gifts. The page was then ruled
into three columns, headed, respectively,
TO" From" and suggestions"
Opposite each name she wrote IN the
proper columns the articles received from
and those given TO each individual. the
latter TO prevent duplication In the future.
Under the head Of Suggestion she
wrote whatever she mad CLEANED regard
ing the wants and wishes OF her friends.
their preference as TO colors, size of
gloves. etc. or any item which she fan
cied might some day become helpful In
the selection of a gift.
That this little book will grow more
useful as the years pass any one can
prove 10 herself by attempting 10 make
out a similar page from memory as To
the dofngs OF a Christmas a year ago. She
will be surprised TO find how difficult IL

changed even so short a time before. and
will wonder how often she has duplicated
her offerings.
This same wise woman began imme-l
diately after the holidays 10 save for the
next Christmas, and has kept IL up ever
since. Not necessarily money, but those
unpurchaseable things which drift into
every home. and which with little in
eenuity may be transformed into very ac-

Sarcasm for Estimate Board.

John Martin again enliyened the meet
ing with remarks about the Board or
Estimate. His discourse was the result
Of an objection by Mr.. Churchill 10 the
last line OF a resolution submitted by Mr..
Martin. calling on the Board of Estimate
for information regarding the matter OF
salaries for janitors, which has been hang
ing fire since 1910. The line objected TO
asked II the information would likely be
forthcoming prior 10 the expiration OF the
terms Of Office Of the members or the
Board OF Estimate and Appointment as
now constituted"
Mr.. Churchill thought this somewhat or
a slap al the Board ~ Estimate. ana that
as this was the time Of year when good
feeling was the rule IL was not entirely
necessary 10 remind the members OF the
Board OF Estimate that their tenure or
Office WAS fast approaching an end. Mr..
Churchilrs objections prevailed, and the
resolution was passed without the last
sentence.
II did not mean 10 slap at the Board OF
Estimate" said Mr.. Martin. but do not
think the board is an immortal one In
oden times they displayed a skeleton at
the feasts to show men what they were
coming to-"
Mr.. Martin made no plea 10 put up a
skeleton at the Board OF Estimate meet
ings. but he said that voters had such
curious ways OF doing things that 1t might
not be amlss to remind the members or
the board that they ran a certain risk OF
not getting back again.

SEE SUFFRAGE IN 1915
Women Prepare for District
and Borough Conventions.

"A penny saved is a penny earned" is
Miss Mary Garrett Hays motto. and as
city chairman Of the Woman Suffrage
party she is applying her theories for the
benefit Of the cause.
Last year the party laboriously sent
through the mail hundreds and hundreds
OF postcard notifications Of its annual
conventions. the sixty-three assembly dis
trict conventions, the borough conventions
and the general convention. The Woman
Suffrage party being rather sizeable it
cost about 800 to inform those members
whose presence was required
This year Miss Hay made up her mind
that 500 should be saved and the meet
ings arranged for by word Of mouth. She
set the machinery going, and in the last
eight days. without the expenditure OF a
cent for clerk hire or postage. the place
where each Of the assembly district meet
ings will be held has been found and made
known to those who should attend. In
Guiding the borough conventions and the
general convention. sixty-nine meetings
have been arranged for. The district
conventions will take place January IA,
the borough conventions January q and
the city convention in February.
For the last occasion Miss Hay has cut
out the programme they have always had
heretofore, and instead OF speeches from
the platform IT will be just big talk
fest for the women on the floor. Imagine
one thousand women-thats the number
they expect-one thousand women, all to-
gether in hall. with liberty to expound
their views on how to convert the city
to suffrage before 1915. That will be the
subject and suggestions from any and
all will be welcome.
do YOU think the roof Of the hall will
stay on?' Miss Hay was asked.
1T Will" she said. I'm be there with
my Eaycl."
