HOPPER MAY RETURN.
New Haven May Get Star Twirler
 Back,

New York, April 4.-There Is a possibility that Booth Hooper, draft ed from New Haven by the St. Louis Cardinals will return here. Although no definite information is forthcom- ing, it is said that Manager Huggins of the Cardinals has decided to rely on his veteran twirlers and those re- ceived in the famous trade with Pittsburg. n.l
 Huggins was quoted some time ago as lauding Hopper as the best twirl- CT among the Cardinal recruits. Hop- per showed up remarkably we'll in the south and was looked upon as a strong candidate to supplant one of the veterans.

WOMEN ON THE FARM

One OF the high officials of the
Agricultural Department at Washing
ton deplores the fact that the women
Of the farmers family are neither
able nor willing to repeat the manual
labor performances Of their grand
mothers on the farm"
Doubtless this is true, but there is
no reason why il should be greatly
deplored. There is progress on the
farm as elsewhere. Labor saving
machinery and improvements of var
ious kinds have made things easier
for the farmer, and why should not
rural life be easier for the farmers
wife and daughters Conditions on
the farm are greatly different from
what they were forty years ago.
Household work in those days repre-
scented almost endless drudgery, with
few of the things which we now know
as modern conyeniences. Many of
the "grandmothers on the farm" liter
ally were "hewers of wood and
drawers of water" but some OF them
actually carried it for long distances
from springs or wells inconveniently
located for household uses.
1t is not worth while to dwell upon
the bad and harsh conditions Of for
mer days, the isolation, the toll, the
hardships, the privations-in many in
stances the hopelessness- of the life
struggle in rural regions in the past.
No one should desire a recurrence of
such conditions. No one should de-
plore the fact that the farm women
of to-day are living under an improv-
ed order Of things and. largely, have
been emancipated from the bondage
which fell TO the lot of the grand
mothers.
1t is well TO remember that life on
the farm is no ceaseless round of
gayety at any time or under any en-
vironment. Probably most of the
farmers wives are doing quite as
much work nowadays as could reason
ably be expected OF them, but they
are living in a different era from that
in which the grandmothers lived and
toiled. The fact that they are get
ting by with less manual labor is to
be rejoiced in rather than to be
lamented.

Collected Poultry

The Grand Ledge Produce company
had a poultry car on the siding here
Thursday and collected almost whole
carload of chickens, ducks and tur-
keys. Farmers for miles around the
city in all directions came in with
their surplus poultry. At times there
were as many as twenty teams waiting
TO deliver their loads to the car door.
A poultry car will hold from nine to
ten thousand chickens. The coops are
built, one above the other, along the
sides Of the car with an alley running
through the middle from end to end of
the car. Each coop is provided with
a feed trough that may be pulled out
into the aisle for filling. The trough
then returns to its normal position by
it's own weight. The outer walls OF
the car are made of wire netting
which allows free circulation of air
through all Of the coops In extreme
ly cold weather the sides are provided
with canvas curtains to keep out the
cold.

THE WORLD TURNING AGAINST
IT

The Investigations of scientific men
are removing all defensible grounds
from the use of alcoholic drinks for
beverage purposes. The cold logic of
indisputable facts, ascertained by
trained scientists and investigators are
showing that only harm to individuals
and to society can result from the con-
sumption of such liquors, because al
cohol is a poison. Some systems may
become so accustomed to steady
poisoning as to reduce the i'll effects
physically. But in efficiency, in morals
and physically the use Of alcohol as a
beverage tends to physical, mental
and moral degeneracy.
The railroads and great business
corporations, as the result of exper-
fence and without sentiment, put the
ban upon liquor drinking because
there was proven to be a direct re-
lation between the use of liquor and
increased cost of operation and in
creased number OF accidents. The
scientific men of Germany, France
and England have demonstrated that
only harm to the body and to a great
er or less degree paralysis of the brain.
results from the taking in OF alcoholic
drinks into the system. Consequently
the military leaders Of England keep
all alcoholic drinks away from their
soldiers just as far as possible; France
has prohibited absinthe and largely
cut down on the use of even the light
est wines; Germany has prohibited
selling beer to her soldiery and Russia
/ has absolutely prohibited the sale of
alcoholic beverages in the Russian
Empire.

AS 1T SHOULD BE

In the school house in Belleville.
Wis, a few evenings ago, upon mo-
ton of the Catholic priest, the Metho-
dist minister was elected president OF
the communitys social center for the
coming winter.
Then three basket ball teams were
formed, including the priest, the min
lister, the blacksmith, the editor, a
farmer, the keeper of the village
restaurant. a dentist, a clothier, a
the banker, the saloonkeeper, hard
ware merchant and a house painter.
They differed in religion, in politics.
in income in social status about as
widely as men can differ. But in the
common school building, in the free
democracy OF the social center, they
agreed TO lay aside their differences
for the novel purpose of discovering
how much good fellowship there was
in meeting together, now and .hen,
as equals, as brothers.
In the democracy of play, in the
democracy of frank, fair discussion OF
public questions, they are finding out,
these differing men of Belleville,
that. as human beings, they're amaz-
ingly alike, once you get below the
surface.
And out Of this agreeable discovery
will come. for Belleville, more toler-
ance, more kindness of feeling, more
give and take than it had ever known
before. Even when they shall differ
again-as, Of course, they often will
lit won't be with as much bitterness,
as much bigotry. as much mean hate
as of yore.
It's a wonderful solvent, is brother
hood.
