Textile EXPOSITION,

The coming textile exposition to be
held in Mechanics building, the week of
April % to 27, inclusive, promises to
eclipse any similar exhibition ever held
in the East, or for that matter in the
United States as New England has
always been the leading textile center
of the country and it is here that the
manufacturers make their greatest
efforts.
The present exhibition will be the
third held by this association, the
Textile Exhibitors association, which is
composed of the leading manufacturers
of textile machinery and general mill
accessory dealers of the country, and
the list of exhibitors is far in excess OF
any previous year. 1t will also be held
at the same time as the annual conven-
ton of the cotton industry, and mem.
bers all over the United States con-
template journeying to the Hub for the
occasion.
The comprehensive character of the
exposition, showing as it will goods in
all processes of manufacture, spinning
weaving various fabrics through to
completion and actually to the made-uI
garments both for men and women by
several of Boston's leading firms, as
well as some wonderful machines that
are almost human, as the winders, the
warp drawers and the others will make
the exhibition one, not only of interest
to those directly concerned but to the
general public as well.
Realizing this great opportunity as ar
educational institution, number of the
| leading department stores and dry
goods houses contemplate sending
their employees to study the various
processes of textile manufacturing t.
be shown. The object lesson which car
be gained will undoubtedly be a grea
aid to intelligent craftsmanship.
AS a comparison there will also b'
shown the old fashioned method o,
weaving and spinning which will bring
out the marvellous strides made in thi!
| industry.
The exposition will open Monda,
afternoon, April %, at O'clock, con
tinuing thereafter during the weel
from 10 a. m. to 1920 p. m. daily.

Care should be exercised in the Sc
lection of eggs for incubating. They
should weigh about "a ounces to the
dozen. The shell should be smooth and
free from Jumps and ridges.
Generally speaking, the newer the
egg the better it is for Matching. Eggs
will often hatch when they are three
weeks old, but the chicks are never as
strong as those from fresh eggs. Eggs
intended for Matching should be kept in
cool place at a temperature of about
so degrees. They should be turned
daily until ready for the incubator or
broody hen.
Over-large eggs seldom hatch, says
Farm and Home. The small egg is
usually from pullet that has not fully
matured, and should be rejected Thin
shelled eggs are unsafe to use, since
they are liable to be broken. The
pointed egg and the round egg should
go in the egg basket. All eggs that
vary greatly from normal shape should
be rejected

Food Wastes in Public institute O s

The tendency toward economical eff
cheney is spreading to public institu-
tons. Any charity which is character
lied by inconsiderate extravaganza de-
feats its widest usefulness, and organ
lied benevolence which is forgetful of
does not deserve continuance of public
support. In public institutions asy-
lums, prisons and the like-financial
resources must be carefully husbanded
in many departments. But in one di-
rection which concerns no small share
of the total expenditure, namely, the
food problem, less consideration has
hitherto been brought to bear than the
best interest of all concerned really de-
mands.
The reason for this apparent neglect
of conservation in the handling of sup
plies is partly to be sought in misguided
sentiment. There is an impression
easily spread that economy in food
management is synonymous with en-
IOrCeu SJdrNdllOU anu HllSLTedlIlleIl, 81
that the guardians of public dependents
are unwilling to face hysterical charges
of the abuse of their wards
Economy of the sort here referred to
not only means the substitution of
cheaper, yet adequate, nutrients for
dearer foods; it means likewise a care
full consideration of the problem of
waste. The kinds and proportions of
food to serve are large questions about
which there is none too much informa-
ton at the present time. The disposal
of sewage and garbage is being care
fully studied, but little systematic in
quiry has been made in this country into
the means of reducing the amount OF
waste which is disposed of through
these channels. The Journal of the
American Medical Association discusses
these questions editorially, and urges
that they be studied carefully.

Everyone ought to cultivate friend
ship for trees, and along with his
animal friends have few tree friends.
He could do no better to commemorate
an event in his family life than to set
out tree and name it with the name
of what he would remembering
arbor days of his own.
Where a family has been sentimental
enough to do this you will find trees
about the house named John, Henry,
Susie, Clara, ETC., in memory of the
birth of the children. You will see a
tree somewhere near the gate called the
telephone tree, because it was planted
the year the telephone was put in the
house.
There will be another tree somewhere
near that one called the free delivery
tree, concentrating the year the mail
was first brought to the door. There
will also be some small trees, among
them the air tree, to remember the thrill
experienced upon seeing the first
aeroplane.

We are sugar-loving people, con-
Stunning more than any. other nation;
indeed, we eagerly dispose of one-fifth
of the entire product of the world. We
use nearly twice as much as Great
Britain, and more than France, Ger

are uninteresting, but let the reader
cease eating candy long enough to read
these figures, 1851 ,391; this number
represents the long tons of sugar con-
sumed, last year by the people of the
United States.
1t is instructive to learn that of this
vast quantity, our insular possessions
furnished, in round numbers, one fourth,
the United States proper, one fourth
and Cuba the balance minus 200, 900 long
tons which is imported from abroad, and
which alone pays full duty. The
Philippines, Hawaii and Porto Rico pay
no duty, and Cuba only eighty per cent
of it. 1t will thus be seen that of our
entire consumption of sugar, only one
seventeenth pays lull uuIy'
There are two ways by which we need
pay no duty.
First, the Democratic plan, now
urged, by abolishing the tariff and
getting our supply wholly from abroad ;
Second, the Republican plan to pay a
constantly diminishing tariff a few years

PLAN TO BE LEADERS
Prohbitionists Will Make Most Pro
eressive Platform

Atlantic City, n. j., July S-A de-
termined effort will be made by the
leaders Of The prohibition party to
change the party name at the nation
al convention which will open here
Wednesday.
With the prospect of new party
under the Roosevelt leadership now
practically assured. prohibition lead
ers now here insist that il any parry
is entitled to be called progressive"
it is their party which has always
stood for advance political principles.
Though the party to be formed
next month in Chicago is being re
ferred to as the progressive party
the prohibitionlsts point to the fact
that it has not yet been formally
christened and that their own party
should have the new name IL they,
choose to take it,
The proposal to re-christen the
party has been considered for some
time and at this convention delegates
from all the states are coming pre-
pared to take determined steps in tie
matter The New York. Pennsyl-
vania and Nebraska delegations are
reported to be practically unanimous
i'm favor of a change of name
The name prohibition party is an
unfortunate one for us said Charles
Il. Jones. chairman of the national
committee. 1T is not a progressive
name and does not truly reflect the
partys character. We are progress
sive i'm all things or course our basic
principle is the suppression OF the IL
quor traffic but even prohibition
does not fully express that"
our party is the original progress
sive party and at this convention we
expect to deal carefully and progres-
sively with all the big political issues
OF the time. For many years the
movement to change the name has
been growing and in this campaign I
would not be surprised TO see the
movement a success. The name pro
gressiye' was suggested several years
ago, and our official newspaper now
contains the word progressive in its
title. other names that have been
suggested are the American and the
Liberty party.

ed today by hundreds. Conferences
