believes the committee will be able to
finish it's work by the middle Of
March. Upon the committees progress
will depend the date of the extra ses-
sion of Congress. The first week Of
that session the House Democrats In
caucus will determine whether the re-
vision shall be scheduled by sched-
ule or by u single sweeping measure
The committee is confronted with
the problem Of raising from s$z5,000.-
00O to $3.50, 100000 from customs du-
ties. coupled with pledge OF lower
ing the tariff bars on necessities Of
this total figure. the plan is tn pro-
vide between sS5.eGO,o 900 and 100000

but one State for ratification for the
proposed constitutional fnendment.
The income tax in turn would embrace
the corporation tax, which in turn bids
fair to yield $4,000. 900 revenue dsr-
ing the year.

those who advocate this should also
practice il. 1t would he well II the
people Of each state should give pref
erence 10 articles manufactured in
their own state. If this be done mer-
chants must buy products of home fac
tories. This would mean prosperity Of
home factories and larger markets at

and Ranch.
When one is urged to ''spend your
money ut home II may be as we'll as

practices what he advocates. If he
does Aot. then he is patriotic for reve-
nue. only and has small claim to con-
sideration.
IL the products of each state were
given preference we should have fac
tories near home and benefits which
would come from that consideration.
We were told of n manufacturer of
clothing who bought material for a
large lot of clothing from a factory in
another state because he could get it
for a less price. This is a reflection
upon our people. There should be no
underselling where only a reasonable
profit is asked.
Again. we heard of one ease in which
products Of a cannery were rejected
by merchants of the home town and
were shipped to a distant town for
market. A merchant of the home
town then bought a large bill of can
ned goods and when they arrived found
them products of the home cannery.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW
ABOUT OYSTER PLANT!
" Satisfy Is Not included In Your -ist
Of Garden Vegetables u Might
Pay to Give u a Trial.

Satisfy. or vegetable oyster, as 1t Is
sometimes called. is a very delcious
vegetable. which should receive more
attention in home gardens.
Satisfy is one of the root crops and
is a little similar to the carrot. When
the root of satisfy is boiled and given
a dressing of pepper and salt and but
ter. it has a decided oyster flavor.
In order TO produce long, straight
and well shaped roots it is recommend
ed that the soil be not broken broad
cast. but broken we'll only beneath the
row. A deep furrow is run where the
row is 10 be and the fertilizer is sown
in the bottom of this furrow. This
will induce the roots TO go straight
down in search of plant food and to
find mellow, broken soil in which to
grow. thus making them long and
straight.
Satisfy seeds may be purchased from
almost any scotsman. They may be
sown continuous in the drill and COW
cred about one-half inch deep. IL the
garden is to receive horse and pillow

close together as convenient TO be

Almost any good garden soil will

Satisfy sown i'm the spring will be
ready for use in the fall. 1t may be
harvested direct from the garden all
during the winter. as it is very hardy

your garden and have a supply of this
delicious vegetable in your garden all

both their hands, tears streaming down
his cheeks, and declared that they were
