The farmers wife.

In recent issue OF Farm and Efrestde
appears the follow ing:
"The farmers wife owes 1t to herself
to have as many labor saving devices as
can possibly be afforded. 1t is no worse
for her husband TO hoe corn by hand,
when he can get proper tool for five dol
lars, than it is for her to bend over rub
bing- board when washing machine can
be had for the same amount. Every dol
lar put into helpful household machinery
means many dollars saved in doctors bills.
such things are not expensive, nor do
they need replacing often. For example,
a food chopper costs less than a dollar,
and will last for years; yet how many
woman still waste time, and break their
backs over an old ehopping- bowl. 1t does
not take twenty-five dollars to fit up a
kitchen with nearly every little helpful
device needed, and every farmers wife
strength andltime-ssving articles within
her reach.
''In the multiplicity of daily tasks, the
time for.-.resding and study seems often
sedly lacking. But it should be found, no
mstter..what else has to go. Ten minutes
with aIgood book will give food for up
lifting Throughout all day. Drudgery ceases
to be such If hurrying steps keep time to
a noble sentence. A favor;te book - in
an oil-cloth jacket, If the binding be
choice - is perfectly safe in the kitchen
cupboard, and many a precious minute
can be snatched while the potatoes are
cooking. or baby is being rocked to sleep.
at seems an extravagant thing to say
that the welfare OF the nation depends
most largely upon the wives and mothers
OF the farms. But 1t will be seen to be
strictly true. Without the farms the
country could not exist, and without
brainy, energetic farmers what would be-
come of the farms?
$50 summing up the duties women owe
to themselves, we are stating their obliga-
tions in an ethical and economical sense,
and find that there is really no selfishness
when woman considers herself first"

What Is Socialism?

"a. Maurice Lotr IN NORTH American Resien.)
Socialism cannot be combated by the at
tempt to outlaw it as an enemy of religion
or morality. We have come to that time
in the worlds history when we live in a
secular and not a theological age, and
while religion eaters into mans life, it is
apart from ii and not a part of it, as il was
in the days when the Church claimed the
right to rule. Nor can religion be tied to
morality nor morality to religion. A man
may be religious in the sense in which the
term is generally understood, and yet be a
socialist; he may be none the less moral
because he is ready to overturn a social
system that he regards as morally wrong
and indefensible and built on an immoral
foundation.
cause that numbers its sdherents by
the hundreds of thousands, in whose
ranks are found men and women OF all
classes and all conditions, many of whom
are of q high order of intelligence, sincere,
devoted, leading blameless lives, sacrific-
ing comfort and wealth in en- effort to
ameliorate conditions that an advanced
state OF civilization has made inevitable,
cannot be whistled down the wind as a
thing trivial in itself or without serious
consequences. Back of it there must be .
reason. What, then, is there to socialism
that makes it popular and threatens
society,"
The answer is to be found in single
word - economic. Socialism is
wrong, fundamentally wrong. Economi-
cally and socially it is wrong. II is
founded on false principles, although it
contains glimmer Of truth. II socialism
were put into operation, the very man
who now so ardently demands it would be
the first to see that its theoretical per
lection is practical impossibihty.

HEALTH BUDGET
JUMPS S35,425
Two New Departments Help
Bring Total Over Last
Years 1891 900.

TO carry on its increased work dur
ing the coming year the Board of
Health will ask for an increase OF
$S5, 425 over its appropriation of last
year The yearly budget, which was
prepared at special meeting of the
board last night, will be presented to
the finance committee of the Com
mon Council tonight.
The board will ask for an appro-
priation of 1867, 1886 as against $685., $40
granted last year.
OF the Increase, $50 will be asked
for the maintenance of two new de-
partments which will be carried on
by the board during this year--'in
FAINT mortality and sex hygiene.
With reference to the former it is
the plan OF the board TO establish six
stations throughout The city for the
education of mothers in the care of
children. This work was formerly
carried on by the public welfare COM
mittee, which recently asked the
board to take it over. With this end
in view Mayor Haussling called the
board into conference several months
ago and advocated the board taking
charge of this work.
Lack of funds was the only reason
which prevented the board from mi
mediately taking the work in hand.
It is estimated that the maintenance
Of the stations will entail an annual
expenditure of $4,000. This amount
is asked in the budget, and it is prob
able that it will be granted.
The department of sex hygiene is
also a new feature of the board s
work It is intended to go into this
work more thoroughly than ever be-
FORE and for this reason $3.50 is
asked.
| For the City Hospital an increase
of $4,000 Is asked over last year $
appropriation. This, it was explained,
| Is for new equipment at the hospital,
| the maintenance of the new sun
parlor and for the maintenance of
the new nurses home, which is dt-
rectly across the street from the in
stitution.
For the general public health fund
an increase of $6,S75 is asked. This,
the board declares, is a natural in
crease to take care of the increased
work because of the increase in pop
ulation
The budget as made up by the board
is as follows: Public health, 1858, 1855;
infant mortality, $4,000; sex hygiene.
81, $50; City Hospital, $4,000, bring
ing the total to $751;
Last years appropriations were:
Public health, 1851 $40; City Hospital,
$3.50. 900. a. total of S331, 80
