largely to the growing of vegetables,
and chief Of these, the fragrant, odor-
ferrous onion, 1t is poor year and
a bad crop, when the onion yield from
these lands runs under four hundred
bushels per acre. Now take a look at
what that 1000 acres would do IL it
took the lordly onion to its fat BOSOM
Four hundred bushels to the acre and
two thousand acres, would show a fin
al result of 100000 bushels of onions
AS a matter Of fact, the 400 bushels Is
conservative and 500 bushels is nearer
the correct thing, so that those 1000
acres Of Lake Labish lands would pro-
duce a million business of onions. A
million is a hard number for the hui
man mind to grasp. Let us put 1t in
some other shape The population of
Oregon is about 100000 This little
2OOO-acre tract reclaimed from Lake
Labish, would give every man, woman
and child in Oregon a bushel and a
quarter of onions. Enough to keep the
breaths of the whole population of the
state sweet and fresh for year, and
until the next crop matured. Again
800 bushels make a big carload, and
as cars will average 40 feet in length
outside measure, this crop of onions
would every year load a train of cars
more than twelve miles long. It will
be seen that this 1000 acres of Lake
Labish lands means something that
one cannot well turn ones nose up at,
though he might at its products.

yet the little old American hen would
lay such a canal, or the price of it in
nine months, and her individual and
collective cackle over the job would
be no greater than that we have in
dulged in over the canal, and she did
not get any Panama exposition blow
outs, either. Again, a big dread.
naught, the best, costs fully armed
about $12,OOO,OOO, and Germany and
England are looking cross-eyed at
eaech other because each compels the
other to build the big expensive things
and yet the American hen collectively,
would lay three of these big armored
ships, or the price of them, every
month, one every ten days, and not
work overtime, either.
1t will thus be seen that she cuts
some ice, and this being true, remem-
Der that she is having a little party
of her own at the armory, and go over
and lift your hat to her. You will
enjoy it, and 1t won't make the hen

SOME HEN FACTS.

ONE MAN with more lead pencil
and time at his disposal than the
- average newspaper editor can
boast, has figured it out that each per-
son in the United States consumes in
some form or other 200 eggs a year.
Now good hen will lay just about
that number of eggs So that instead

hen Is the real genuine manufacturer
Of the superlatiye breakfast food"
the old and original kind and the first
ever done up in special packages for
the trade, With population Of 90,-
100000, 1t will be seen that 1t would
take that many hens to supply the de-
mand, but as the use of chickens also
uses up a good many eggs in the hatch
ing, 1t Is probably a conservative esH-
mate to say that the present chicken
census would be about 100000 900. The
value OF the hens product for the year
would me about $3.50 and the cost of
her keep would be on an average
about one dollar In other words, the
net profit from each hen would be
about $3.50 or for the whole hen fam
lily in the country, about SijO,OOO,OOO

ic opera in two acts by Victor Herbert
and Rida Johnson Young. Florence

ma donna portrays the leading role
and her support numbers about sixty
voices, mostly assembled from the
Hammerstein grand opera forces. A
special orchestra and a magnificent
production are carried II being the In
tention to make Naughty Marietta"
the most attractive musical offering of
the year.
The scenes are laid in New orleans
in 1880 when American woodmen
ranged the forests. Foreign nobility,
beautiful Spanish senoritas and the
quadroon and Creole slaves made up
the population Of cosmopolitan New
Orleans, Chivalry herolcs and ad-
venture created a romantic populace
all admirably suited to the foundation
of q romantic opera. The hero Of
Naughty Marietta is an American cap
tain Of the forest rangers. He Is a
woman hater, yet Is loved by Naughty
Marietta, a little countess who ran
away from her European convent to
come to America with ship load of
maidens sent out by the king of France

latter, many amusing situations result.
In the end, the American captain Is
won over to the love Of Marietta. He

learns the true Identity OF Marietta,
who has been compelled to assume
various characters TO preserve her
freedom, escape tle pirate chief and

THE INITIATIVE LAW.

-HE proposition suggested by Judge
Lowell to limit the number Of in
itiative measures that can be
placed upon the ballot is now before
the legislature, It being introduced yes
terday That under the present law,
the ballot can be loaded down with all
kinds of foolish measures is true; that
1t needs amendment, and needs 1t bad
ly Is also true Under the present laws
a hundred, five hundred or any num-
Der of initiative measures may be
placed upon the ballot 1t is plain
that something must be done, but
what. AS The Capital Journal stated
a few days ago on this same matter,
the disease Is easily diagnosed, but
who will discover the remedy?
That the Lowell idea will not do is
visible at first blush. He would have
the number that may be voted on lin
tied to five, and 1t can be easily seeen
that, II some initiative measure of real
Importance was discussed, and there
was a probability of It's going on the
ballot, anyone opposed to II could keep
the people from voting upon 1t by
rushing the secretary Of states office
with five inltiatory measures, no mat
ter how foolish or unlmortant, and by
getting them upon the ballot, shut out
measures of real merit. The remedy,
this remedy, would be worse than the
disease.
The Journal does not suggest any
remedy, 1t Is not enough of a doctor,
but passes It up to the Legislators to
answer, Between the present law and
the proposed one, there is about the
same choice the old negro had when
his minister pointed out to him his
shortcomings, and solemnly said:
"Dere am two roads. De one is de
broad and short road dat leads to per-
dition. De udder is de long and de

The New Farmer.

The farm problem Of America is not
in bursting barns, nor high-bred stock,
nor soil fertility, nor even in the rural
school, but in the farmer himself Its
solution is in the individual known as
the new farmer, The dreary drudgery
Of the old farm existence is fast pass
ing away, and in its place is coming
broad, rich, free livelihood, never be-
fore known-"the new country life"
The new farmer lives the new country
live; the new farmer builds for his
wife and children q modern, sanitary,
attractive home; the new farmer
makes hard roads. He installs a tele-
phone, receives his mail by free deliv-
cry, and encourages interurban SER
vice, supports thriving rural church,
and demands an efficient consolidated
school, with high school course for
his sons and daughters at home, The
new farmer reads and thinks; he stu
dies his own environment, sees his OPP
portunity and limitations, improves
the one and removes the other, The
new farmer Is not only u scientist, but
a sociologist He works in harmony
with his ncirhbors for the general
good and upllft Of his immediate COM
munity and, above all else, he realizes
the dignity and importance Of his own
profession and individuality in the
permanent and national welfare,-1lli-

Woman Is
Always a
Mystery
SECRETARY MVEAGH LEARNS
HOW LITTLE HE KNOWS ABOUT
WOMEN, AND THE WORKINGS OF
THE FEMININE MIND.

Washington, Jan. 15.-Secretary of
the Treasury McVeagh is pondering
these days over the perversity of wo-
men. Also a perfectly good room in
the treasury department is going to
waste.
It is all the outgrowth Of feud
which the women clerks of the treas
ury are waging against their chief
For years and years these clerks
many Of them middle-aged ladies'
have been bringing their lunches with
them to the office and utilizing conve-
nient gas jets for the boiling of coffee
and tea. Little luncheon parties were
formed, and the ladies spent their half
hour Of the recess period in gossip,
doing fancy work or knitting.
MacVeagh didn't like the practice.
He did what he could to break it up
by frowning disapproval. Then, final
ly he got an idea, and had the public
health service hold that the cooking
and lunching in the working rooms
was "unsanitary." An official order
was issued on this working authority,
banning the tea and coffee drinking
and the luncheon parties, The women
rebelled. Some even took the matter
to their congressman with the plant
that the order was a hardship on the
smaller salried clerks; since it forced
them to buy their lunches, whereas
before they could get a smack" at
noon out Of home leftovers.
MacVeagh had to capitulate grace
fully. But he didn't restore the lunch
ing privilege. The public health SER
vice opinion that lunching in the
work room was "unsanitary" stuck in
the way Of resuming the old plan. So
the secretary decided on a regular
lunch room. He cleared out a fine,
| ihi bN' sunny lOOllli anu ldu IL llllOu up
with nice tables, put in little gas
stoves for the coffee and tea making,
and installed comfortable chairs An
official order conveyed the invitation
to all employees to make themselves at
home during the luncheon period in
this ROOM
But the women clerks we're peeved.
A week went by, and not a soul used
the nicely fitted room More than a
month has now gone and still the
cook stoves and chairs and tables are
unused, The clerks have a first-class
"boycott" against It,
Chief Clerk Wilmeth says he cannot
explain the queer lack Of appreciation
on the part Of the women clerks.
