WHEN MlLwAukrg GOES Dry

$500 VII HSNNE 6OGS Dhr.'
The following facts concerning the
liquor industry in the beer-ridden city
of Milwaukee are CT interest. They
are taken from the chapter on 80
cialism and the Liquor Traffic" In a
volume by Alfred Raymond Johns
Amount OF capital invested In
liquor making, s51,O0O,00; number of
men employed, 4,755; value Of the
product paid out in wages, &C. per
cent. Amount of capital invested in
all other industries, $185, 35S,011; num-
Der of men employed, 104,461; value
OF the product paid out in wages.
34.S per cent.
With more than one-fifth of the
total capital invested, the liquor In
terests employ fewer than one-twen-
ty-third the number of men and pay
lees than one-ffth the per cent in
wages. In other words, If the $751;
100000 now invested in liquor max
Ing In Milwaukee were transferred to
some other line Of industry, the city
would be employing $4,000 more men
and be receiving more than $4,000
600 per year in wages. when Mil
waukee goes dry" says Mr.. Johns,
then will the city really prosper.
The liquor business" he declares, "is
a curse to general prosperity"

LAST WORD ON PRESERVES

There is still time for few last
Jars of pickle or spice to be put up
before winter. Red cabbage, white

right for seasoning. Take advantage
of these last pleasant days to put up

STATE FARMERS
INSTITUTE CLOSES
OFFICERS OF PAST YEAR UNANI-
MOUSLY REELECTED.
Resolutions Committee Wants the Rove
nues of Agricultural Department
Used for Farms--Good Talks
by F. w. Gist and Others.

Eashville.-The final session of the
Middle Tennessee Farmers Institute was
one of the greatest interest. The variety
of phases of farming and related sub
jects discussed by the speakers of the
day made it an unusual session. The
following speakers were heard: Prof, g.
M. Bentley, State Entomologist, 'Prac-
tical Methods of Insect Control;' f. w.
Gist, Statistical Agent of the United
States Government, Farm Profits;" NJ.
B. Morton, Managing Editor of the Ban
ner, whose paper on "The Relation of the
Press to Agriculture" was read by Mr..
A. l.. Garrison; Mr.. j. N. McCord, editor
of the Marshall Gadette, "The Country
Newspaper as Force in the Develop
ment of Agriculture" and j. P. Meroney,
"The Silo"
One of the most interesting lectures
was that of r. w. Gist, United States
statistics expert. Mr.. Gist showed in
cold figures just exactly what the farm
ers of Tennessee are doing and not do
ing. He pointed out the impossibility
of rearing family in comfort and send
ing all of the children to school on the
average profits of the farmer of Ten
nessee. These profits, he said, were only
$3.50 a year.. Consequently one-quarter
Of the rural population of Tennessee We're
unable to read and write, an appalling
state of civilization. Theorists, declar-
ed Mr.. Gist, might tell the farmers that
they must take more interest in the
finer things of life; commissions might
be appointed to make farm life more at
tractive, but unless some way were de-
vised whereby the farmer could increase
his profits all this sort of activity is
useless. The object of the present in
stitute, stated Mr.. Gist, was to give the
farmers the ideas as to how they should
increase their earnings.
The principal feature of the session
was the election of officers. The nomi-
mating committee recommended that all
of the officers far last year Zoe reelected,
and this was done unanimously. The
following gentlemen therefore succeed
themselves: President, Robert Gala
CHER; vice-president, Wade w. Oglesby
secretary, 7. G. Settle.
The Committee on Resolutions in its
report recommended the following meas
ures: That the Legislature appropriate
all the revenues of the Department of
Agriculture to the training of the farm
ers of Tennessee; that the farmers of
the institute do all in their power to
promote better roads; that an appropria-
ton be secured from the next Legisla-
ture to fight hog cholera in the State,
and that all of the farmers Of Tennes-
see give the State Fair their best sup
port.

GOOD REASONS FOR RETIRING.

Not the least interesting part of the
liquor journals Is the advertising sec
ton. We read In the last issue OF one
of these periodicals that the largest
and Oldest mail order whisky house in
the south, doing a business of one
and one-half million dollars per an
mum, is for sale, the owner desiring
TO go into another line of business. :"
An advertisement Immediately follow
Ing simply state that good reasons
for selling wholesale and retail liquor
business will be impaired privately
by this office" 1t speaks well for the
foresight and business sagacity of
these men that they desire to go into
another line Of business" In the grow
ing sentiment against the use of alco-
hol on the part of railroads, industrial
corporations, insurance companies,
athletic clubs, charitable associations,
and men OF science, they see the hand
writing on the wall They realize that
the determination of the liquor traffic
