White House History Repeats

The statement to the effect that there
would be no social entertainment of
any kind in the Presidents home dur
ing the coming winter placed at rest
any vague hope which might have lin
gered within the hearts of the people
and at once set hostesses, official and
otherwise, to planning their private
programs. There is precedent enough,
and of a varied sort, to put the Presi-
dents mind at rest, even were he not
master of his own convictions. Mrs.
Tyler died September 10, 1872. and
there were no entertainments at the
White House for that and the following
year, except a New Year reception.
which was attended by diplomats and
those of official and resident circles.
Mrs. Abraham Lincoln abolished state
dinners at the White House and pro
posed instead to give three receptions.
She held one in February. 1862, and
Willie LincolnS death, March 20, of
course cut off all festivities. The Pres
ldent held his New Year reception,
however, and it was on the memorable
New Year day of 1863 that he signed
the emancipation proclamation. Presi-
dent Grant refused to hold New Year
reception January 1, 1871, because of
the death of Mrs. Belknap, the day fol-
lowing Christmas, 1870, the event plac-
ing not only the home of the Secretary
of War in mourning, but the entire
cabinet The President and Mrs Hayes
must have omitted dinner parties to
the diplomatic corps during that ad-
ministration. for it is recorded that
President Arthur gave dinner to the
diplomatic corps February 16, 1857; the
first to be given to that august BODY
in four years.
Mrs. Harrison's death. October "a,
1892, of course dispensed with az
formal entertainment for the rest OF
the administration. When the Presl-
dent and his daughter, Mrs. James
Robert Mckee, were hidden royal
farewell by their friends before leaving
the White House they were still in
deep mourning.

COST OF PULLING HEDGES
Edward c. johnson, Of the AgricuI-
turaI College, Describes Work and
Expense Of Operation.

Considerable pulling Of hedges has
been done in Leavenworth county
and through the county agent, P. H.
Ross, the following figures on cost
have been obtained from L. C. Clark,
who is doing such work:
Engine six days at $500 per day,
$4,000; coal, $500 pounds at $3.50 per
ton, S4.3S; four laborers, six days at
$3.50 per day, $4,000; one team six
days at $3.50 per day, 5000.
This was old hedge with the trees
eight to ten inches in diameter The
stumps had been burned level With
the ground so that digging had to be
done to obtain q place to fasten the
chains The whole root system Of each
stump was pulled out completely,
some of the upturned roots appearing
to be from Is to 20 feet long. There
was in all $50 rods Of toe hedge and
the entire cost Of pulling was $ds.SS
which is about a cents per rod.
Conditions for the removal OF the
stumps could scarcely have been more
unfavorable but It seems that the cost
of such work when done IN the right
way Is very slight compared with the
benefits derived.
