A freak asparagus stalk, grown at
the asylum farm, was presented to Act
ing Governor Olcott today by Dr. r. f..
Lee Steiner, superintendent of tle state
insane asylum. The stalk is as flat as
"a paper cutter and has branches grow
ing from both sides. DR.. Steiner thinks
the stalk was shaped when its growth
started by crack in the crust of the
earth or some other accidental mold.
The plant is more than foot long and
is so unusual for this part of the coun-
try that it looks as if it might have
grown in the tropics. 1t has been sug-
gested to Acting Governor Olaott that
he send the sprig to Luther Burbank

ONE DISADVANTAGE OF BEING
CIVILIZED

That the Foot and mouth disease
may never be stamped out ia the
United States" Is a haring headline
placed before the readers OF the KO-
komo Dispatch by that paper. In
that case We are in an awful shape.
We might as we'll settle down 10 a
decision To get along without meat.
milk. butter and cheese. and heaven
knows how many other things, espe-
cially since from Benton Harbor comes
the tale that a mother and child there
have been afflicted.
Really we are not sufficiently pessi-
mistic 10 swallow the message from
Kokomo. but none-the-less it sug-
gests the necessity Of drastic action
such as new outbreaks constantly
being reported seem 10 call for.
And IN this connection just a brief
word with some Of the farmers in the
vicinity Of South Bend. A few days
ago they were complaining that the
state officials had not become duly ex-
cited; that they were not maintaining
an ample quarantine, but that. quar-
antine or no quarantine, they intended
70 resist if an effort were made to kill
of their stock without being paid for
it, Assurance from the governor that
ne would request the legislature 10
make an appropriation TO pay for the
stock quoted them on that score, but
now another inconsistency arises.
Health authorities are beginning TO
exercise themselves for the protection
Of humanity. They have attempted
not allow food, such as hay, straw,
grain and vegetables. TO come into the
city without first being inspected and
fumigated. We are told that the
farmers are Directing 10 this. They
don't propose to be Inconvenience to
any such an extent. They complain
against lack OF quarantine and then
with the next breath complain against
everything that a quarantine stands
for.
But we half imagine from develop
ments. and the more vigorous resist
ence being applied for the control Of
the disease. that while it will some day
he stamped out. at least temporarily.
whole lot Of people, farmers and
city folk alike. will be inconvenienced
considerably before the end. We
might as well reconcile ourselves 10
it. IL is one OF the disadvantages of
being civilized and of living in a
civilized community.

COOPERATIVE HOUSEKEEPING.

Ever since Edward Bellamy wrote
his inspiring novel, Looking Back
ward. there have been attempts to get
folks to pool their kitchens and
"housekeep" comparatively.
It's all very easy, on paper-one
central plant. with expert cooks; the
benefit Of wholesale buying, and the
best equipment and ease for worried
wives.
The trouble has been that. in eat
ing most of us are individualistS.
What is ones meat may be anothers
poison-we want our meals exactly
fitted TO our several tastes, which
means that we think they must be
home cooked. Hence the Bellamy
plan hasn't prospered.
But now, in Montclair. n. j.. a CO.
operative feeding scheme has been de-
signed to meet this handicap Of the
past
If you were a member OF the Mont
clair group and didn't wish to walk TO
the dining room at the central cook
ing plant. you could phone or mail in
a special order, covering any kind of
dish or dishes you liked. and have 1t
delivered. piping hot, in thermos
bottles. at the right time. with a serv-
ing maid to boot-provided you felt
unable TO feed yourself
The cost? Well. We shall probably
know more about that after the
scheme has been tried out. The pro-
moters claim. though, that the cost
will be less for equal quality than the
cost of separate kitchens.
Perhaps it can work; who knows :?
A generation ago you'd hardly have
thought that many schoolhouses and
factories TO say nothing of office
buildings and apartment houses, would
one day have lunch rooms, feeding
hundreds 10 thousands daily at often
surprisingly low prices. In those days
each pupil or worker who didn't go
home at noon brought his or her sep
arate smack" and ate il cold.
The present elaborate feeding ar
rangements are a form OF cOopera-
tive housekeeping which has been
forced into success by modern needs
and mostly because men have tackled
the job on a business-like basis. de-
veloping high efficiency.
From the quick lunch room 10 the
Montclair plan is not therefore long
step: and We may be sure that it will
be taken generally whenever women
really wish TO give up their little pri-
vate kitchens and their sense of do
nestle sway.

mate OF American exports and i'm
ports Tor October presents figures
surprisingly cheerful after hearing
50 many pessimistic prophecies of the
ruin OF American commerce and in
dustry"
Listen 10 these:
a jump in October export figures
Of approximately S44,0O0.0O0. bringing
the balance Of trade in favor OF Amer
icaD shippers up to $50, 200, 900, is the
estimate issued by officials.
In August the value of imports ex-
ceeded exports by $20.1OO,OOo. but
since the resumption of trade rela-
tons interrupted by the war the pen
dulum has been rapidly swinging
back.
The growth of October exports is
shown b. the weekly figures of exports
compiled by the ten principal ports of
the country. on which the depart
ment's estimates are based. These are
New York. Boston, Philadelphia, Bal
timore. Galveston, New Orleans. san
Francisco. Detroit, Seattle and Buff
falo. For the week OF October 1 to
10. the exports from these ten ports
were $34, $4,000.
During the following week they de-
creased by $6.O0O.OOO.
In the third week of October they
jumped to more than s3S.OOO.0OO.
In the final week of the month they
totalled $45.9OO.0O0.
The department estimates that the
total exports for the month will
amount 10 approximately S20O, 600,
with imports amounting to $4,000
600.
If this proportion should be main
tanned. the October exports will show
an increase of those of May, when
trade conditions were practically nor
NAL, of more than S35,O0Oi)O0!

NO CHANCE FOR CONTEST.

one of our writer's suggests a con-
test for "the most beautiful man." pre-
senting Ted Splawn, society dancer
and husband of Actress Ruth St.
Denis. with his picture showing him
dressed in a leopard hide and blowing
Grecian airs on two pipes OF mac
caroni.
Observing carefully Ted's tout en-
semble and toot macoaroni. we have
decided to pass up the contest for
the most beautiful man. In the
first place. life's too short and the
contest for the most beautiful bread
and bacon too hot. Then, too. Ted's
picture OF beauty. If he's any where
near the standard, cuts out all the
men we've seen hereabouts. Ted's
limbs are delicate, smooth and round
ed His arms are childlike. His
features ethereal in their chiselment
and his hair one OF those thick. cringly
masses that you want 10 crop off and
put in a football. There are no knobs
OF honest toll about his figure and he
altogether looks like a fellow just
good enough TO put on cats hide and
pose before crowds of sensual society
DANES in the name OF Art. Maybe ii
is beauty. Maybe Ted is a fine stand
ard for the most beautiful. But the
beauty isn't needed in these parts. and
We don't propose 20 abet its promotion.
There's already too much masculine
beauty and conceit standing around
on our street corners or at the theater
doors. ogling women. while mother is
At home benzining neckties or filling
the furnace. There are already too
many young blOods who think they're
going 20 make career on their shape.
There's already too much half-stripped
human beauty. slinding and leaping
and kicking up clothes at society
functions
No contest for ''the most beautiful
man" I'm ours. What these where
sbOuts need is more contests for
homely men. men with callouses AT
the base OF the thumb. cords OF muscle
across the breast. wrinkles running up
into the hair through tangoing OF the
brain over problems; men not grass
hOppers. men working like the very
devil for seven children and a wife
who sees the beauty OF sound. estab-
lished character behind the homely
masculine exterior.
That's what.

LEARNING TO SPELL.

A teacher who writes to the Star
suggests that the multiplicity of sub
jects now set down for instruction in
the schools makes it impossible u
give TO all subjects the time and
thOroughness that each may deserve.
The correspondent thinks il would be
better if parents supplemented the
work Of the schools by helping their
children at home-especially in spell
ing, since it was a criticism Of poor
spelling among high school students
that called forth the communication.
Parents are negligent. indeed. if
they do not take a lively interest in
their children's schooling, but too
many of them are chargeable with
this offense, because of indifference.
or ignorance. or the distractions Of
adult affairs. While the cooperation
the teacher asks " WOULD be freely
given by some parents it would be
withheld by many others. Another
objection voiced by many parents is
that a child's time out of school
hours is for play or for pursuits like
reading and music.
Manifestly, then. a solution OF the
spelling question Will not be reached
uniformly through the home. Many
excellent parents are VIGOROUSLY poor
spoilers. and there are others who
while spelling by the dictionary and
wishing that their children could do
likewise, are convinced that the on

VILLA AND CARRANZA.

The refusal of Carranza to obey the
ruling of the Aguascalientes confer
ence and the declaration of villa that
he was ready to accede to the provi-
sional presidents demand. that he re-
tire to private life if it will secure
the elimination of the revolutionary
leader, casts new light upon the
character OF these two leaders. 1t is
TO be hoped that Villas self sacrifice
VIII be successful in preventing an
other war in Mexico and that he
eventually will be raised to a post of
honor.
Throughout the war. Villa has been
assailed as a bandit and a man un-
worthy of trust while Carranza has
been hailed as a liberator and a pat
riot Yet the facts in the present
trouble show clearly that Carranza is
a self-seeking egotist, who cares little
for his country and ignores every
promise made while he was at the
head of the revolutionary forces. It
was CarranZa who almost involved
Mexico in war and Villa who saved
his nation from that calamity Car
rama refused to grant amnesty to the
conquered soldiers of the federal
army until Villa forced him to it and
now it is Carranza who is seeking TO
break all promises made to the Mex
lean people and elevate himself TO a
position like that held by the die
totors, Diaz and Huerta.
1t is TO be hoped that Carranza ac-
cedes to Villas demand that he re-
sign the provisional presidency. This
alone will prevent war and Villa is TO
be commended for his offer 10 retire
if this action will induce Carranza to
surrender peaceably.
Only a patriot would give up hard
won laurels to benefit his country and
Villa has placed himself in the front
rank Of those who are entitled to a
share in any spoils won by the defeat
Of the federals. BY this action, the
rebel chief has taken place far
above that occupied by Carranza ana

IT is one OF the peculiarities of
poverty that evidences of it are less
apparent than one might suppose, con-
sldering the amount that is uncovered
by investigation. A few people are
unconscious that any exists. They
are not looking for it, Others are
aware of its presence. but not fully
aware of it's extent. The rest is left
10 investigation.
IN the crowds of well dressed peo-
pie on the streets when the community
comes down town. in the stores and
theaters, there is no evidence of the
lurking wolf. Everybody seems to be
prosperous and happy. Outside of the
professional mendicSnt poverty rarely
obtrudes itself on the public gaze. 1t
