TEXAS COMPTROLLER SCORES
SALOON MEN

Austin, Texas, June o.--Comptroller
Lane, in public statement just given
out, declares that the liquor laws are
hagrantly violated by the licensed
liquor dealers all over the state. He
calls for communications from the
people of Texas, relative to what they
know of the saloonists of their To-
calities, as respects the fitness, under
the law, of these men to retain their
licenses, and as to their conduct in
the business. From S. to 90 per cent
of the licenses expire July II, and
Mr. Lane declares he will not renew
the license of any man found to be a
law violator or of low character.
After citing the provisions of the
license law, and calling sharp attention
to the widespread disregard of the
law, Mr.. Lane makes this significant
announcement:
Information coming to my desk
from almost every section of the state

of the law above quoted are being
openly and fagrantly violated by the
my purpose to clean out the Augean
stalls of the liquor traffic of Texas if
I can secure the cooperation of the
good, law-abiding citizens of Texas
who believe in decency and in the en-
forcement of the law. Unlike Her
acles, I can not accomplish this task
alone, and in the period of one day,
but with the assistance and co-opera-
ton of the people of Texas I can
accomplish it between now and the
first day of July, 1913.

He'd mind pack of preachers? What do they

Just what may drink? No doubt
They'd put mankind water, even though

They said he'd forfeit freedom, be lout,

Sober officers say he did nothing but weep and wall
When told he'd killed her.

Too much; but then, you mustn't think
That gives these fanatca preachers a right

man in our neighborhood was still
cutting all his grass by hand paying
from a dollar and a half to two dol
lars a day for men with the scythe.
For good while this same man had
his hay raked by hand. His reason
for doing this was that ne thought
the hay was better cut and raked by
hand. There would be more dust he
thought in the hay cut and raked by
machinery and that would affect the
health of the cows!
1T is all right of course, to look
for the health of the cows; but as
a matter Of fact, 1t was simply no
ton that hand cut hay was a bit pet
ter than that harvested by machin-
cry. But the thing that drove the
good old man to farm machinery was
the advanced cost of farm labor. II
cost him a good deal more to get his
haying done the old way and by
watching other farmers who used ma
chinery and asking some questions
he learned that he was standing in
his own light and really wasting
money"

Have Farmers Been
Selfish With
Their Wives

In the current issue of Farm and
Preside, the national farm paper
published at Springfield, Ohio, APP
pears an article which seems to in
dlcate that farmers wives have been
getting the short end of the bargain.
Following IS an extract:
Half a century ago men and wo-
men were about on an equality in the
matter of the drudgery of fam life.
The man had to slave among the
stumps and stones. The womcn SN1
to make SOAP weave, spin and knit.
The man was obliged to break his
back over the sheaves in the harvest
field, to WELD the corn knife and to
labor with the fail and hoe. The
woman had to carry water from the
spring, to carry in the wood, and
sometimes to chop it, to sweep and
scrub and fight flies.
Necessity has largely emancipated
the man. Invention made it cheaper
and better to use the mower, the
binder, the corn harvester, the wind
mill, the gasoline engine, the shred
der, the silo, the riding pillow the ma.
nure spreader. The cream separat-
Or and the milking machine are max.
ing the wife's work easier too, and
80 are many other things. But in
many things the inventions of today
have not been placed in the woman's
hands because it has been necessary
to adopt them in order to make the
farm pay.
so in the course of events that
led up to making the farm pay, the
woman has kept on as she used to,
in order to make possible the pur'
chase Of implements by which her
husband could do more work with
less effort. But can see no rea
son why her sacrifice instead Of be
ing perpetuated by habit should moi
be terminated when the reason fol
1t no longer exists.
