STEAK FROM BEANS.
The S~uccuIsnt TsndsrIoin May Be I'm.
itated In Cheaper Material.

What's there to worry o'erf
Laugh and COO beans!
When beefsteak prices soar
Boycott the butcher store.
Simply cook beans. and more.
More and more beans!
That suggestion has an expert opin-
Ion back Of 1t, for very recently r. e.
Doolittle, NJ. D.. Or. Wiley's successor
as the pure food" head Of the bureau
Of chemistry Of the department Of
agriculture, sent forth the slogan.
Beans as a substitute for beef" They
are, he says, the very best substitute
for that expensive luxury.
Ii cannot be denied that there Is a
sort OF prejudice In the popular mind
against beans, They are accepted
when they keep their place as a hum
Bile poor relation on the meru But
fancy the emotions of m epicure II
beans we're placed before him as the
piece de resistance! And yet why
shouldn't they be? What Is the reason
of the slurs we hear on beans, such as
calling cheap restaurants ~"beaneries."
and jokes like that? Ii must be Just
because they don't cost much. Let
some willy trust magnate create a cor
ner In beans and send the quotations
on them upward a few dozen points
and women would probably be doing
without hats 10 buy beans for their
husbands dinners And then the u
try would be saying, How is the poor
mar to live with beans at the price
they aref"
There are many varieties of beans.
All are nourishing. All legumes, even
In IN immature state, ms green beans
and peas. have more nutritive value
than other vegetables, and In the dried
forms they approach beef. According
to a bulletin issued by the United
States department of agriculture In
1911, the comparative percentage of
protein In lean beef, navy beans and
lentils is, respectively. 21.3, 22.5 and
25.7.
A bean roast might be served as n
change from bean steak. 1t could be
made the same way as the steak, shap-
ed like a roast and cooked In the oven
Roast chicken made Of beans is effec-
tive, but the shaping In the form Of a
chicken Is q bit difficult. This can be
made with seasoned stufIing, either roll
ed inside the chicken" or baked In
the pan with It CroQuettes made Of
beans are very nice. And consider the
comparative cost! Why, a porterhouse
steak nowadays for a small family
costs over a dollar. Half a quart OF
red kidney beans would make q steak
large enough for q big family.

REPORT OF STATE TREASURER

The report Of the condition of the
state treasury at the close of business
July 81 showed cash in all funds to be
$59S, 1913, Of which $370,972 was in the
general fund. The sales of Irvine
these days has swelled the revolving
fund for the twine plant up to sS2,771.
The game fund is up to over s31 1000,
and the matter Of handling this will
be considered by the hunters of the
state at a meeting called by Game
Warden Bancroft at Huron during the
state fair. The debt Of the state on
the last day of July, less capital war
rants, was 100000, and to balance
this there was a general fund of $780,
972, leaving the net debt of the state
at $4,000 in round figures. There
were outstanding capitol warrants to
the amount of $345,34S.7S, which are
drawing 6 per cen These warrants
while issued on the state fund, are a
unsold, and will be taken up as fast
as receipts come in from that source.
If the state We're bonded for the sum
of these warrants the interest could
no doubt be materially reduced, but
for some reason the powers that be do
not take such a step.

NaedleWork Notes.

Girls with an appreciation for the
artistic are outlining the designs OF the
ends of pretty chiffon scarfs with pearl
beads and crystal bangles and are thus
securing remarkably fine effects.
Luncheon cloths or between meal
cloths Of color are gaining in favor,
and no material is more popular for
novel ones at present than dress linens
These are often embroidered in simple
designs.
There is a little pincushion Just out

SCAN the HEADS

Our plan In reading a newspaper
is to scan the headlines. We don't
always have time to read everything
nor do we always want to read every
thing in some papers. 1t seems. how
ever. that nearly everything in The
Citizen is both valuable and interest
ing. Still, time may be wanting, and
we urge our readers to adopt the
plan Of scanning headlines for the
good things.
And, of course, "Freckles" will not
be passed by. 1t is attracting atten-
ton far and wide. And this weeks
installment is full of interest. We
wrote to one person a few days ago
that the story would be worth a
hundred sermons to any boy and we
mean what we said. We do want
the boys to read "Freckles''-and the
girls and the fathers and mothers.
And we want everybody to read
the two columns. the Home Course
in Health, this week "Stimulants
and Drugs in the Home" 1t is worth
more than the price of the paper.
Prof. Robertson's article on old
Jonesbonugh ought to be read by
all who are interested In matters OF
History. And those who are in ac-
cord with our "clean-up" program
will be pleased with Prof. Scales
article telling what is being done IN
the way of sanitation in Berea.
And then Woodrow Wilson and
Theodore Roosevelt speak to us this
week endorsing Berea. Look for their
pictures on second page.
And there is something for the
farmers and the teachers In their
regular departments.

IT IS COMING

The day Of clean streets, clean
back yards and front yards, clean
homes and clean wells-the day CT
sanitation and health is coming. II
is coming soon for Berea, we are
made to think from the enthusiastic
article by Prof. Scale, found on the
fourth page.
And why not? 1t would pay
enormous dividends dividends in
'health, dividends in comfort, divi-
bends in looks and satisfaction TO
home folks and visitors.
We have been fighting flies and
they are fewer this year than ever
before. We are told. We have been
fighting for clean streets and clean
yards. and great progress has been
made In this respect. We have also
been fighting the weeds and this is
really our chief problem now.
But the city is taking hold of the
matter. Thele has been much agita-
ton the ladis' clubs have done much.
tho we are sorry to say that they
failed to meet the proposition of the
town council some weeks ago. But
the inspector was appointed never
theless and he is making his second
round and his report is very en-
couraging.
We have noted and all have noted
the effort to cut the weeds. II must
be admitted that 1t is almost fruit
less but the intention is good.
Why not begin earlier and why
not keep 1t up? And then why not,
when the weeds are cut, rake the
cuttings off the walk? And again.
why not CUT the weeds? Why leave
so many standing? And why just top
them?
We would not cut them that way.
We would cut them close, or pull
them, dig them up. Or better, we
would scalp the ground and SOW grass
in its stead.
How beautiful Berea would be
will be. when we want beautiful sur

An election was held last week In
Saskatchewan. one of the western
provinces Of Canada, the Liberal
party being returned TO power by a
large majority. This is the first
election that has taken place since
the great Conservative victory last
year In which Sir Wilfred Laurier and
the Liberals were defeated on the
Reciprocity Issue.
Although the Government sent
its ablest speakers to Saskatchewan,
the LIBERAL party was returned 10
power. the Conservatives electing only
S out OF the As members. II is pre-
dicted that Sir Wilfred and the Lii
berals will be returned to power as
soon as there is another general
election.

JOHN BULL TAKES A HAND.


A good deal Of excitement was
caused in Washington last week by
the request of Great Britain that
pending legislation concerning Pana-
ma Canal rates be held up awaiting
a note from Brother Jonathan. 1t
could not be learned for some time
what the nature Of the plea would
be, but it developed that 1t was a
protest against the terms of the bill
which would allow American vessels
to go through the Canal free or the
toll to be refunded, while foreign
vessels are to be charged. The claim
of the British government is that
these regulations would be contrary
to the terms of the treaty of 1901
between Great Britain and the Unit
ed States. 1t is suggested that the
entire subject brought up by the
British Government may have to be
settled by arbitration at the Hague.

ton which assembled at Atlantic

but no radical change was made In
the party's program although the
platform is indeed progressive, stand
