BREAD AND BUTTER
COSTS $4,000 A YEAR

Kansas City, Nov. 13.-It costs
$4,000 a year to supply bread and
butter to each of the leading hotels
of America" said Lyman T. Hay Of
St. Louis, retiring president of the
Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma Hotel
Mems association, addressing the an.
nual convention of the organization
here last night.
"The hotels Of the larger cities
are being compelled to make change
for bread and butter" he added,
and hotels in the small towns soon
will be forced to follow suit"
Representatives of some of the
small towns said that for country
hotels to make such charge would
be as ridiculous as to demand an en-
trance fee to dining room.
w. N. Robinson of Tulsa, Okla,
was elected president.

BEETLES, NUMB WITH
COLD IN THE EARLY
MORNING, FALL INTO
CHICKENS MOUTHS

A writer in the current issue of
Farm and Fireside tells how the cur
culio "a beetle) can be prevented
from destroying plum trees. Follow
ing is an extract:
"a Canadian reader complains Of
losses OF plum crop caused by the
curculio. Where plums are few eth
er in the trees or because there are
but few trees, and curculios numer-
Gus, this insect is hard to control.
With fiocks of chickens confined in
a plum orchard. especially IL trees
are JARED every morn while curculio
are present, the Job Is comparatively
easy. The chickens or chicks will
eat the beetles as they fall. Earring
the trees is the surest way of fight
ing these insects anyway, but with
out the chickens sheets or regular
curculio catching devices must be
spread under the trees and the beet
les gathered up and destroyed. How
to jar? In early morning, while bee
ties are benumbed with cold, spread
the sheet or sheets or device, hold
block Of wood against body Of tree
or if large, against limb after limb
and strike it hard blows with heavy
hammer. Gather up the fallen foe.
This is long draw out battle, how
ever. 1t should be begun when trees
are in bloom and continued daily II

COMMENT ON

There was one thing that Mr..
Roosevelt had a right to expect on
Tuesday, the 5th of November and
that was the 66 electoral votes OF
West Virginia, Nebraska, New Hamp'

and Missouri. For as long ago as the
tenth of February the reluctant Col
onel received letter signed by the
Governors OF these seven states and
asserting:
We, the undersigned Republican
Governors declare 1t our be-
lief. after a careful investigation OF
the facts that large majority of the
Republican voters of the country "a
vor your nomination, and large
me jority of the people favor your
election as the next president of the

feeling of the rest of the country;
but how could the leaders of the peo-
pie misjudge the sentiment In thelr
own communities? Yet of these sew
en- states only one confirmed the
opinion of its governor in the slight

misguided Colonel, far from polling

content with a plurality, being in a
minority of 100000 in the total. As

The country is seething with poll

no particular class or section. Rich

and children of poverty have begun
to lose faith in the efficacy Of their
government to establish justice and
promote the general welfare. They
are not sure where the fault lies;
they are not united as to the rem
