CAPITOL CLEANED OUT.

BY the election of state officers
the legislature has wiped out the last
remnants of the Patterson machine.
The plunderbund and the liquor gang
have both gone to the scrap heap
Tennessee is now controlled in all its
departments by progresslves VINO
WELD no allegiance to the special in
terests. Good officers have been chos-
en- and the affairs of the state are
safe in their hands.
There will be little regret at the
passing of any of the officials VINO
have been retired. Treasurer Tom
Taylor was elected as the result OF
bargain and intrigue between liquor
democrats and their republican al
lies. He was not elected because OF
any particular merit or ability that
he possessed He has probably made
a fairly good record but has * all
times been the ally OF those who
sought to em1arrass Gov. Hooper's
administration by serving the back
tax plunderbund,
Not a bad man at heart Frank Dib-
rell deserved what he got. He fell
into bad company. He allowed his
back tax machine to become oppres-
sive to the people and to be used as
an asset of the powerful liquor inter-
ests. His attitude with reference to
the examination of his books, which
are not his private affairs but the
property of the state, gave rise to the
suspicion, whether well founded or
not we cannot of course determine,
that the Law had not been followed
as it should have been by his agents.
Hallum w. Goodloe has been 4 reg
ligible quality in the politics of the
state. Lacking fixedness of purpose
and constancy of conviction he has
been alternately allied with both fac
tons of the democratic party in the
state. He finally fell between the
lines. There is no real grief among
the regulars at his defeat and the in
dependents are naturally graified that
he has been succeeded by man of
conviction and real ability -..,
A better day is dawning for Ten
nessee. We shall have less little pol
itics in the affairs of the state in the
future. The state officials will not
oppose meritorious measures recon-
mended by the governor for the best
interests of the state merely because
they do not agree with his politics
And the capitol was cleaned out by
the election of democrats exclusive
ly. The republicans in the legisla-
ture were patriotic enough to recog-
nize that this is democratic state,
and they voted for good men and Tue
democrats. The democratic party
will profit in the end Now that the
barnacles and shackles have been re-
moved from the old ship of state we
expect to see better sailing in the flu
ture.
Remarkable progress has indeed
been made in Tennessee within the
past two years. little more than
two years ago Patterson controlled
every department of the government
except the judiciary. Now not a sim
gle adherent of the old discred!ted
machine holds a place of consequence
in the affairs of the state. An'iPat-
terson men have been elected & ev-
cry Office filed by the legislature.

MAKING WORK
---es.s-E ? III S..sffs h
IN KITCHEN .
MUCH EASIER

When arranging the kitchen the
idea SHOULD be to make the work as
simple and easy as possible. The first
step in this direction is to procure
the utensils that will help to do the
work in the most successful manner,
and thus obtain the best results.
When buying utensils consider the
uses to which each article is to be put,
and buy the best of its kind. Look
each utensil over and see if it is well
enough made to be durable, If it Is
convenient to handle. and # it is easy
to clean. The frying pan Is now made
of s,eel and. with little care can be
kept smooth. The ones with lip on
either side are the best to buy as
either hand can be used when empty
ing the contents.
There is much discussion as to the
relative value OF aluminium and enam-
eled ware. Both have their advan
tageS. The aluminium ware is coming
more and more into use.
There are many ways in which pa
per can be used in the kitchen. max

RAISING FERNS
in THE HOUSE

1t would be difficult to find a more
universally popular plant than the
Boston fern. There are two good rea-
sons for this popularity: one is its
beauty; the other Is its ease of cuI-
ture. Soil is an item of prime jmpor-
lance in the culture of this plant. Leaf
mold and sand form the best compost
for it, but as a general rule leaf mold
is not obtainable by the city resident
A good substitute for it is found in
that portion of ordinary sward imme
diately beneath the grass. Turn over
a piece of sod and scrape away that
part of it which is filled with the fino
roots These, when they decay, fur
nish a nutriment almost, if not quite,
as valuable as that supplied by rotten
leaves. Enough sharp sand should be
added to make the mixture friable and
keep it from becoming compact in the
pot Plant young fern in a soil Of
this kind, giving it good drainage and
keeping it properly watered, and it

GOODIES FROM

There are cakes and cookies, brown

er dishes in which molassCs plays a
prominent part in the recipe. This
collection of recipes from various
sources are all tried, and the house

window But you must not expect Il
to reach the highest stage of its deyei-
Eopment the first year. It will not be
at its best before it is two years old.
There are plants four or five years
old that are in perfect condition, and
are far more pleasing than younger
ones because of their size and dig
nifty.
T In order to keep fern in satisfac-
tory condition for this length Of time
it must be given the best Of attention.
Old fronds must be cut away as soon
as they begin to show yellow leaflets,
and runners must beerenovedsas soon
as they start The young plants which
form about the old crown must also
be removed in order that all the
strength Of the plant may be- thrown
into the one main crown from which
long fronds will be produced freely II
the energies Of the plant are concen-
trated on it,. Water must be given
generously, but never in sufficient
quantity to flood the plant. II the
drainage is what 1t ought to be, how
ever, there win be little danger of oy-
eTwatering. 1t must be kept in mind
taat >ferns4are not aquatic plants, and
that water standing about their roots
will speedily result in injury. Aim to
keep the soil in the pots always moist,
but be sure to avoid the excess which
results in muddiness.
Once year it Is a good plan to dig
out as much of the old soil as you can
without seriously disturbing the roots
of the plant and replace it with fresh
compost. If this is not convenient
make use Of some reliable fertilizer.
1t is important that the plant should
be fed we'll in order to keep IL In good
growing condition. Finely ground
honemeal is as good a fertilizer as one
will be likely to find. Dig teaspoon
full of it into the soil about the roots
of the plant once q month, when it il
making active growth, and It will not
be necessary TO repot 1t or to add any
fresh soil.
Many persons labor under the I'M
preston that ferns of all kinds do not
care for much light, and they place
them at some distance from window
The consequence is that the fronds
are weak and slender and the leaflets
lack that substance which character $
ICES the normal plant. Ferns do not
require sunshine though most va
rieties will do we'll when exposed to it
provided plenty-of water is supplied
but they must be given good light IL
they are to develop into fine plants.
