The Richmond climax. (Richmond, Ky.) 1897-1914, 1913-06-17

That Legislature, with these and other
items of desired appropriation before
them, did make an appropriation 'for
the benefit of the three State education
al institutions, namely, State Universe
ty, Lexington, KY. Eastern Kentucky
State Normal School, and Western Ken
lucky State Normal School, appropriat-
ing money for necessary equipment and
for expansion of work, etc."
In this appropriation bill, this lang
uage is used;
That the additional sum of thir-
ty-fve thousand dollars is hereby
appropriated for the current official
year, and for each succeeding year
for the benefit of the Eastern Ken
lucky State Normal School. neces-
sary part of which appropriation
shall be used 10 meet as far as pos
sible, the pressing demands, Qor)
agricultural instruction, for instruc-
tion in household economics and for
manual training in the respective
departments of said institution. and
the same is directed TO be paid by
the Treasurer of the State to the
Treasurer of the said State Normal
School. upon warrant or warrants
issued by the Auditor of Public Ac-
counts, who is hereby directed TO
draw and issue said warrants, for
the purpose aforesaid.
In the light of the foregoing and with
former State Inspector S report on file in
his office, for Mr. Goodpaster to say that
the Legislature did not mean to give
this Board authority to do what we have
done for the ''benefit" of this institu-
ton, is a pitiable commentary on his
ignorance of facts known to all well-in-
formed Kentuckians who have watched,
cherished and assisted in the building
of this and other educational institu-
tions of the State
AS to the puschase of a house for the
residence of the President: Your Elk
cellency knows the location of the Pres
ident's house and the value of the same
and that it was originally part of the
campus and plant now occupied by the in
stitution. You know that on account of the
proximity of this residence that even if
it were not needed as Presidents Resi-
dence, it would be good policy to pur-
chase it in order to keep it from going
into the hands of persons who might not
be in sympathy with the institution.
But for further and better reason the
Board deemed it wise TO acquire it. The
presence of the President is needed on
the campus for the control, assistance,
and direction of the large number OF
students and for the care and protection
of the properties of the State valued at
$500, 600. 90, which is entrusted TO his
| care.
The Act of 1912 provides that agricul-
ture shall be taught. The Board, in the
utmost good faith and at the very lowest
| figures, purchased the farm of ll2 acres
and is now and has been ever since the
purchase of said land doing its utmost
TO carry into effect the requirements o.
the law. Mr.. Goodpaster's opinion thai
it would have been better TO rent lane
or use the campus for experimental
agriculture is so ridiculous that we d.
not care TO more than allude to it. Mr.
Goodpaster says: ''As far as the farm i
concerned, it can never be anything bu

You may talk of free sites, bonuses,

ing factors in attracting new capital

greater than these, is the condition of
the labor market. The American
laborer wants to know that the money
he expends for taxes is honestly ex-
pended. He wants to locate where he
is looked upon as man, not as a cog
in machine. He wants pure water,
milk and food. He wants his dwelling
to have the atmosphere of a home. He
is influenced by the absence of condi-

MUST VIEW THE RISKS.
Insurance Agents Will Be Compelled
to Make Personal Inspection.

In a fight against the heavy fire
losses in Kansas, many of the fire
insurance companies in the state have
agreed to compel their local agents
to make personal inspection of all
risks before writing insurance. Fail
IRE to make personal inspection of
property will subject the agents to
cancellation of their licenses.
This new policy, it is believed, will
act as one of the greatest safeguards
against over insurance that has been
set up in the state. Under the old
system many of the agents merely
wrote insurance in the amount that
the property owner requested and no
questions were asked. They looked
on the business from the standpoint
that the larger the policy, the more
commission they would receive and
many of the insurance companies ac-
cepted these risks without asking
questions or making further investi-
CATION. Sometimes the property was
insured for more than its actual cash
value. Often insurance was written
for full value
With an insurance policy for full
value, the property owner was not al
ways over Jealous in protecting the
property against loss by fire. Some
times the temptation was too great
and incendiary fires resulted. There
was usually nothing to do but pay
the losses and the fire insurance COM
panies complained because of their
heavy losses in Kansas.
This week Fire Marshal Parkman
held conference with a number of
the state agents of the insurance COM
panies. They agreed to the personal
inspection program and promised the
hre marshal that failure on the part
of their local agents to make personal
inspection of all risks would subject
them to removal from the company's
employ. The new policy will become
effective al once.

A MILLION A YEAR.
Automobile Duties Average That Sum
for Ten Years.

New York. July 8.-The United
States treasury has been enriched dur
ing the past decade to the extent OF
$1O,123,427 in duties upon foreign
built automobiles brought to into this
port In the period named, STA ma
chimes of all classes were imported
here, aggregating $22,5O7,615 in ap-
praised foreign value, subject to duty
of % per cent.
The statistics prepared at the GUS
tom house show that during the last
three fiscal years, ending June 80, the
importation of automobiles has fallen
off. In 1912, for instance, S26 cars
were imported, as compared with
1881 in 1909.

CITY CAMP
Fourteen Thousand Soldiers
Can Embark on Short Notice.
Swamp Made Most Healthful
Military Camp in World.

Texas City, Tex, July 8.-What
army officers say is the best organized
and most healthful military camp in
the world today stretches for two miles
along the shore of the Mexican gulf
here. Four months ago the site of the
camp was virtually a swamp. The
transformation is one of several big
achievements of the American soldiers
sent here last February for mObiliZa-
ton of the second division of the Unit
ed States army. Major General w. H.
Carter. commanding the second divi-
sion United States army, said of the
camp today:
THE division here and at Galveston
comprises One-third of the infantry
strength of the United States army,
and with artillery, cavalry and signal
corps makes nearly 900 men. Bring
ing the division together has taught
the officers and men the intimate needs
of big organization as to it's equip
ment and has weeded out unnecessary
para phernalia and under-standard an
imalS-- When the commands compris-
ing the various divisions go back to
reassemble for any service whatever,
the commanding general can issue a
single order which could cover the en-
tire equipment of every man.
THE second division now is in ex-
ce!lent shape. The soldiers are equal
sion, with baggage. could be ready to
go aboard trains or transports before
the cars could be sidetracked or the
transports ready to cast off.
Probably the one most important
accomplishment here for the American
people has been the demonstration of
sanitary surroundings. 1t has verified
methods tested at San Antonio in 1911,
when IA, 900 men assembled as a ma
neuver division. We have now been
here four months and not one case of
typhoid has developed. When we came
we were told this site was a swamp"

LET THEM FARM
Back to the Soil Program
Urged for Women.
Kansas Agriculturist UnfoIds
His Plan in Washington.

Washington. July S.-"We have been
trying for nearly twenty years to get
back to the farm. but have not been
successful; therefore, L am heartily in
sympathy with Mrs Woolsey's PROPOSE
ton of encouraging women to take up
farming remarked Henry ]. Carleton,
a prominent farmer of Kansas, at the
Shoreham hotel today.
Il have studied this question: he
said, land have come to the -conclusion
that the farm is the only thing at
present that offers the great mass of
our 5000 600 working~-wonnen in the
United States a relief from wage Slav-
cry. In the last forty years our popu-
1ation has almost quadrupled, while
the amount of produce from our farms
is about the same as it was 40 years
ago. Even the western rancher with
his steam plows and his other up-to-
date paraphernalia makes a pretty
good showing, his yield per acre is
wastefully small. and the abandoned
farm of New England situated in the
very heart of the market, is an indica-
ton of where We stand in agricultural
progress.
IF our young immigrant women
could have a chance to get into the en-
Tironment which has built them into
sturdy, strong peasants it would be far
better than to compel them to settle
tenements- Physically and morally
sturdy these women get caught in the
maelstrom of city life on the moment
of their arrival How much better it
would be if they could be directed to
a farm, where they could take up
work and ultimately become independ-
ent.
Let women generally understand
what the smallest farm can furnish in
the way of food, and we shall see them
fiocking to the farm. Some one has
said that one person with one acre can
feed nine persons. 1t was an European,
] believe, who took a more liberal view
and declared that two acres of market
garden can be made to yield enough
vegetables and fruit to supply richly
the table of 90 adults for an entire
year. OF course this means intensive
farming I know of a man in New
Jersey who has saved an average of
81 200 a year from two and one-half
acres of land, after clothing, educating
and feeding three children.
The only thing necessary to encour-
age women to go into farming is to
give them protection, and enough guild
ance for a start They naturally under
stand better than men the methods of
intensive farming. and 1 believe are
better qualified to make successful
farmers. This is one avenue open to
women that will lead to their economic
independence. in nv opinion"
