Of EMPTYINe BARREL
Idea Illustrated Herewith viii Be
Found Not Only Easy, but Quite
Sure and Safe.


Y Many ruralists now buy gasoline
and lamp oil BY the barrel, and to
empty same Ia no small job. The
idea herewith illustrated win be found
not only easy, but sure and safe. The
barrel to be emptied Is left in the
wagon, or placed on bench, SO the
lower end is just above the barrel or
other vessel in which you wish to
store the oil. A piece Of three-quarter
inch hose Of sufficient length to reach
from the bottom of the barrel to be
emptied and across to the storage
tank is secured and used as shown,
says the Iowa Homestead G shows
the barrel Of oil, D is the storage tank
or barrel, and A is stout cord some
two feet longer than the hose, B. The
cord has weight such ais a small tap
fastened to one end, and a bunch Of

SOIL OF LEGUMINoUs CROPS
Nitrogen Is Obtained Through Nodules
or TubercIes Full With Myriads
Of Bacteria.

It is but few years since the agri-
cultural world was informed that
leguminous. crops obtained their nitro
gen through the medium Of nodules
or tubercles: yet the average cultivat-
or is quite unaware of the fact. It
may be as well, therefore, to state
the fact again, and to say that it is
easily capable Of proof.
If two lots Of, say red cloverseed
are taken and an equal quantity of
each is placed, in two pots with all
the necessary plant food except nitro
gen, the seeds will terminate and
grow much about the same, and that
is very little indeed. If now we add
to one part some Of the nodules or
tubercles to be found adhering like
pin heads to the roots Of red clover
crop, we shall soon see the difference
in the rapidly increased growth of the
plants In the pots in question.
Now each of the nodules or tubercIes
in question is cram full with myrIads
Of bacteria, and these bacteria 1t is
which by obtaining nitrogen from the
air pass it on to the clover, roots,
etc.. and give to the latter and to the
clover plants that nitrogen without
which they could not live. Thus a
soil of leguminous crop requiring nit
rogen can be infected with the nitro
gen bacterium. and incubation here.

WEEK OF OUR LORDS PASSION

evils from our lives; the empty space
must be filled speedily with worthier
purposes, and holier affections. Jesus
spoke once of man from whom an
unclean spirit was cast out. who swept
and garnished the place. but brought
no holy purpose home to dwell, and
the evil spirit returning found room
for himself and seven spirits worse;
so that the last stage of that man was
worse than the first That was a hap
py phrase OF the great Chalmers, the
expulsive power of a new affection"
The temple of the heart should be
unholy things, and fills the place to
its full capacity with the things that
are holy and pure. God seeks as his
own no empty temple: but one filled
to the full with the spiritual activities
that belong to the kingdom of God.
The heart that is full to oyerflowing
with the love of God has no room for
the things that deflle the life of the
spirit.
Far back in the days before Christ
a wise man wrote: Keep thy heart
WIN IOl OuI VI II dIC IhS
issues of life" There is a sacred
shrine in the soul of man within which
traffic. and barter have no lawful
place.
1t is the purpose of the celebration
of this Easter season to bring our
hearts into close sympathy with the
spirit of the successive days can We
doubt that message to our own hearts
of this day of the cleansing Of the
-, temple? Ought it not to be for all
who-are seeking to follow the foot
steps of our Lord. day of searchings
of heart that all that is unholy may
be cast out; day of digging about
the roots of our souls that we may
discover the causes of our unfruitful-
ness, and of conservation of purpose
that our lives be no more barren nor
unfruitful? If the day shall bring to-
US such meditations and resolves, then
shall our Lord, coming this day to the
inner temple of the heart, find in 1t
shrine for his own indwelling.

TO FIX
new Income TAX

WASHINGTON, d. C., March Ia
feature of the tariff revision program
of the extra session of congress may
include the raising of 500, 100000
from an income tax, including the cor
poration tax, as part of the $309,000,-
600 basis of revenue.
Representative Hull of Tennessee,
a democratic member of the commit
active in income tax problems, plans
to introduce a bill which would pro-
vide such source of revenue.
This would be considered by the
committee in connection With con-
templated early ratification of the con.
stitutional amendment to sanction in
come tax legislation. OF the neces-
sary number of states required for ra-
tification. only two are lacking.
The Democratic majority of the
committee favors an income tax, but
in the event of failure of ratification
will renew the excise tax plan as an
extension of the present corporation
tax law.
The committee finished today hear
ings on wool. and it is likely that the

lines of the wool bills of 1911 and
1872, vetoed by President Taft.
Meanwhile the Democratic leaders
are sounding out incoming members
of congress as to the program of tariff

tons of preference for revision sched-

PROMOTION PROGRESS ASSURED

Fred l.. Waldron is the man Of the hour for
the Hawaii Promotion committee
The committee Craftsmanship calls for man
not only of ability but one thoroughly in sym
patty with ideas of progressive community adj
yertising, and Mr.. Wadron is that man. He
served for three years as a member of the com
mittee and for one years was its chairman. He
for two years and was the Chamber of Commerce
delegate on the Commercial Commission that Wis
tied China in 1911
What is right to the point now, Mr. Waldron
is a firm believer in the idea that Hawaii must be
well represented at the Panama Pacific exposi-
ton.
he is firm believer in generous financial
support for the work of the Promotion Commit
tee
The committee may have fight on its hands
to convince skeptical legislators that Hawaii will
get hundred-per cent dividends from encourage
ing the tourist traffic If the fight comes, Mr..
Naldron is tile man to lead it.
Retiring Chairman Myers gave his earnest
and unselfish service to the committee and dur
ing his term the work went steadily ahead There
has been some uneasiness as to the future of the
committee, threatened as it is with the danger
Of niggardly policy of appropriation, but the
selection Of Mr. Waldron ought to bring the com
mittee SO actively into the campaign that the leg
islators dare not 60 against the plain facts of
promotion results.

The support of Samuel Gompers, president OF
the American Federation of Labor, is not likely
to help any candidate for governor of this terri
tory, whether L. L. McCandless or someone else
The two big dynamiting cases, both resulting in
convictions of men prominent in labor, have
greatly diminished Gomperss prestige, not be-
cause any connection with the dynamite outrages
was proved against him, but because in both
cases he denounced the arrest of the union men
as conspiracies of capitalism. Just now Com
pers has about as much influence in Washington
as ex-senator Billy Lorimer.

EDITOR

en- with bated breath for anything from Wash
ington that resembles a straight tip. @>#
If indications mean anything on the state of
mind of man as imperturbabe as Wilson, he is
going to pass personally upon the more import:
ant appointments, and it is pretty certainsthat
when it comes to naming a governor of Hawaii
fer instance, he is not willing to turn the matter
altogether over to Secretary Lane or anyone else
On the day after he assumed office, Mr.. VIII
son issued the following statement: "The pres
ident regrets that he deems it his duty to decline
to see applicants for office in person, except
when he himself invites the interview. 1t is his
purpose and desire to devote his attention very
earnestly and very constantly to the business of
the government and the large questions of policy
affecting the whole nation, and he knows from
his experience as governor of New Jersey-where
it fell to him to make innumerable appointments
that the greater part both of his time and OF
his energy will be spent in personal interviews
with candidates unless he set IN invariable rule
in the matter 1t is his intention to deal with
through the heads of the several
executive departments"
AT once the news went out broadcast that Will
son had turned all the patronage over to depart
ment heads, and that is the way the news came to
Hawaii. Office-seekers here Immediately began
to figure on presenting theirclaims to Secretary
Lane or National Committeeman Wilson. Later
advices however, develop the fact that Wilson
has no intention Of turning over to his depart
ment chiefs the appointment of the more import
ant federal officials. His previous order, it soon
became known, was made to allow department
heads to sift out the applications and present a
few of the most suitable candidates to the presi
dent. Now it is stated on excellent authority
that appointments in almost every case will be
passed upon directly by the White House
With all of his personal interest Wilson has
shown signs of political astuteness by consulting
with senators as to appointments in their states
Evidently he is going to be a good deal of party
man SO far as working with his party on appoint
ments goes Up to date there has been no clash
and it is sure that Bourbon anxiety to carry
through successful administration will cause
congressman to pause and consider before OBJ
iecting to Wilson's choices
Wilson's judicial attitude makes it highly
probable that many present federal office-hold-
ers will not be disturbed during their terms. His
independence of the extreme party idea OF
patronage for politics only is well-known.. 1t is
reported here on excellent authority that Wilson
has already let it be known in Washington that
he wishes to take plenty of time to think over
and is unwilling to disturb Repub-
licans simply because they are Republicans. Tn
der these circumstances it is not at all unlikely
that number of federal office-holders here will

Il can conceive of national destiny surprising
the glories of the present and the pasta destiny
which meets the responsibilities of today and meas

proposition that all created equal; that
they are endowed by their Creator with inalenable

to secure these rights that governments derive
their just powers from the consent of the governed
Behold a republic in which civil and religious

is sovereign, but in which cares or dares

while the empires all around bowed beneath the
weight of their ornaments = republic whose
flag is loved while other flags only feared.
Behold a republic increasing in population, in
