MRS. JULIUS KAHN A BROAD MINDED WOMAN

Absolutely none. Unless the people.
generally speaking, want some favor
they do not trouble to find out who
represents them.
II recall one instance in point which
happened to Mr.. Kahn. He received a
letter from a man, supposedly well
wersed in affairs generally. who asked
a favor. Mr.. Kahn replied that 1t was
impossible to grant his request, and,
further, that he (Mr. Kahn) was not
the representative of his district. In
answer to this the man called in per-
son at my husbands office and ex'
claimed in some heat that he knew Mr..
Kahn was his congressman; that he
had voted for him several times. Mr..
Kahn asked him II his home had been
the same for several years as that
given in the letter, to which the man
replied it was. ~.
"'Then you couldn't vote for me, as
my district is elsewhere said Mr..
Kahn. .
"And do you know that man abso.
lutely refused to believe him, and went
away insisting that he knew better.
And many, many people have told me
they voted for my husband when It
would have been impossible under the
law" .- -,

QUEEN ELE0N0RA OF BULGARIA TO VISIT U. S.

1t is probable that Queen Eleonora
will proceed from Sofia to Hamburg
as a German princess. There she Will
embark, II her arrangements permit,
on the steamship Imperator on one OF
it's trips in the month Of May. 1t Is
certain that the suite Of Queen Eleo-
nora, will include in addition. to some
diplomatists, aides-de-camp from the
smartest guard regiments and ladies'
in-waiting, who will wear their beauti-
full, picturesque native costume.
The purpose which Queen Eleonora
and King Ferdinand hope to achieve
by this visit is twofold. In the first
place they ore hopeful that the queen
will be able to counteract any antago
nism to Bulgaria which may have re-
suited from the late Balkan wars.
The king and queen are both i'm
pressed with the growing. indirect
power of the United States as guide
to the sympathies and opinions OF the
world and hope the visit will have the
effect of informing Americans a. to
the desires Of this. country and induc-
ing sympathy with the aspirations OF
Bulgaria to creditably maintain q
place among the nations Of Europe.
An even. more utilitarian purpose IL
the study which the queen proposes
to make Of the manner in which the
United States is working out the social
and economic problems and draw les
sons applicable to Bulgaria, which is
now confronted with an economi'
problem Of great magnitude.

AMERICAN CAVIAR.

The use Of the roe OF salmon and
other American fish for the making
Of American caviar Is growing rap
idly, and as q result what at one time
was a very serious waste has been
turned into an excellent and valuable
food. The principal difference be-
tween this caviar and the Russian
caviar Is. that the Russian article is
made principally out OF sturgeon roe,
while excellent American caviar is
made from salmon roe. white fish
roe, and the roes of other fish that
are handled on large commercial
scale as we'll as from sturgeon roe.
This caviar is made in the same man
ner as the Russian caviar. The roe
of the fish Is pressed through screens
which allow the eggs to pass, but hold
back all the membrane and the egg
sacks These eggs are then packed in
a largo quantity of salt which draws
some of the water and other sub
scances from them. They are then
canned or boxed and put on the mar
ket. - ~

the department ofIagriculture advise,

its American makers are proud to &C

az The disposal Of the maggots IL
another practical consideration II
the larvae were allowed to drop to the
ground they would burrow into II to
pupats there ana nothing would be
gained. It would be necessary to have
some sort Of vessel, e. g., a concrete
basin, beneath the trap. This should
have vertical sides and contain an inch
or more Of weak disinfectant or OF
water covered with film Of kerosene
oil. II such basin we're connected
with sewer or cesspool the maggots
collecting In Il could be flushed out
each week without the necessity OF
them in any way and without
any offensive decomposition.
That the maggot trap possesses GER
tain advantages is obvious and ought
to lead to many attempts to develop It
along practical lines. Cheapness would
be one Of its strong points. Practically
the only cost would be the initial one
for the construction OF the trap and
Of basin or receptacle for catching
and disposing Of the maggots- Very
little additional time or labor would be
required In operating 1t. The sprin-
king of the manure would be a very
small part OF the daily routine Of re-
the manure from the stables.

Of the maggots would require only =

The entire rind of an orange is used

and the lower half ia turned back to
form a standard for the upper half,
which is the cup. The orange remains
between the two and unites them.
The cups are filled with boiling hot

of sugar dipped in cognac. A match

duced is aided by the oil Of the orange
rind. so that charming effect Is pro-

WARNS AGAINST FIRE.

Post cards cautionfng forest users

been sent by the federal forest serv-
ice to residents In the vicinity of the
forest areas which have been pur-
chased by the government
These post cards state that burning
Of the woods does not improve the
grazing, and does not exterminase
poisonous insects or animals. On tho
other hand, the cards say such burn
ing Injuries the grazing value Of the
land by killing of the better grasses,
by decreasing the fertility Of the soil
and by increasing the possible dam
age to the ground. and its covering OF
vegetation, from frost, sun, wind and
rain Furthermore, they state that
burning Injuries the timber, impairs its
merchantability, and lowers its selling
price; that it increases insect damage
by weakening the vitality of the trees
and afscrding an entrance for insects
through fire scars; and, in addition,
that 1t kills out the young trees
which are just getting started.
For the reasons enumerated, it is
announced that no grazing will be al
lowed on the government lands which
have been recently burnt, the rule
being enforced in order to give the
range chance to recuperate from
the effects of the burning. The effect
Of this prohibition will be to close
certain areas against grazing; there

ton that they will improve grazing
