American hen. She rays about Az

February being her off season, she II
probably cut this down TO 10000, 900
eggs. But there's some comfort In the
fact that there are 20,000,000 eggs We
wouldn't have had in 1912, IL 1t were
not for the extra day. The census
shows, that for every egg laid by the
American hen the American COW
gives two quarts OF milk. So
we'll be 100000 quarts OF milk
richer-about a glass OF milk for
each one OF the 90,0O0,O 900 folks in the
United States-just because 1912 has
an extra day.
Uncle Sam will take in $2,0OO.OOO
extra in 1912, from his various sources
of revenue. But he'll spen4 about one
eighth OF this TO keep his war machine
the army and the navy, going for an
extra day.
Altogether, Feb. 30, isn't such an
uninteresting day, after all.

President Taft will soon start a
vigorous speeeh-making campaign 10
explain his position on current ques-
lions and further his candidacy for
denomination.
Before the Republican national
convention meets in June, the presi
dent will spend many days on the
road and is expected TO deliver scores
OF speeches. He will travel as far
west as Chicago, as far north as New
Hampshire and south at least as far
as Georgia. Other engagements may
be made In the next few weeks. The

lowing this advice when he accepted
an invitation of a years standing
20 attend the fiftieth annual dinner
OF the Swedish.American Republican
club in Chicago. The acceptance OF
that invitation was followed by the
announcement that the president had
consented TO stop on his way west at

Although no announcement has
been made OF subjects for speeches
the president will make on these
trips, II Is practically certain that he
win not fail to include In his adj
dresses the recall OF judges, the re
call of judicial decisions. possibly
the initiative and referendum and
topics touched by Col Roosevelt in
his speech in Columbus last week
Probably Mr. Taft will make no
direct reply TO that speech. and II
has been stated with emphasis that
he will not indulge in personalities.
But that he will make clear his own
views on many OF the doctrines adj
yocated by Col, Roosevelt in Column
lNs, is almost certain.

SAFETY BOARD
WILL CONVENE
REGULAR SESSION WILL OCCUR
AT $3.50 O'CLOCK, BUT MEETING
WILL PROBABLY BE A VERY
BRIEF ONE.

This afternoon at 4:30 o'clock the
second regular session for the month
of June of the board of public safety
will be held in the office of the city
clerk at the city hall. 1t is probable
that only some routine matters will
occupy the attention of the members,
as there is nothing out of the ordinary
on the calendar so far and nothing
unusual is expected.
There are no charges against any of
the members of either the police or
fire departments, consequently there
will be no trials. The session will,
no doubt, consist OF hearing a few
communications read, receiving the
reports of the heads of the depart
ments under the supervision of this
board and approving the bills and
payrolls.
