KENTUCKY COAL PRODUCTION
 BROKE RECORD

Kentucky broke its record of coal production with an output for 1914 of 20,382,7 short tons, valued at the mines at S20,852 ,463, the years out put exceeding the previous high mark
 in 1913 by 766,163 tons. The increase
 was all the more notable because it was made in year when most of the coal fields of the country showed decrease. and it was due to activity in Icoal mining in the eastern part of the
 State, particularly along the Virginia
 border, and to the construction Of new railroads.
 The number of men employed in- creased from 26,332 in 1913 Uo 2S,764 in 1914. The average daily produc- ton per man also increased from 3.5
 tons in 1913 to 3.8 in 1914 the increase
 being due to the extended use of min ling machines.
 The coal produced by the dangerous
 practice of shooting off the solid
 amounted to only little over Il per
 cent in 1914 as compared with over 15 per cent in 1913-an excellent rec
 ord. The number of fatal accidents,
 according to the Bureau of Mines, was 61.

spelling, it is advisable-after filling the jars and putting on the rubbers and tops-to place them in the clothes boiler and sterilize them for about 30 minutes. If this sauce is properly made, it will have bright red color and a rather mild and sweet taste. It is delicious when served with meats. oysters, baked beans, etc.
 Recipe No. 2.
 For those wishing sauce not quite so sweet, but more on the order of a pickle, the following recipe will be found satisfactory: Scald and peel "A ripe tomatoes; chop these up with 2 red bullnose peppers, ? green bull nose pepers, and ? large onions. Put into an enameled saucepan and add cups of vinegar.
 F cups of brown sugar. ? level tablespoonfuls of salt. 2 level tablespoonfuls of whole allspice 2 level tablespoonfuls of whole cloves. 2 level tablespoonfuls of cinnamon. 2 level tablespoonfuls of ground gin
 ger.
 2 level tablespoonfuls of ground nut
 meg.
 Bring to boil, stirring frequently to prevent scorching, and boil until the sauce begins to thicken. The on- ions will then be we'll done. This should not take over an hour. Re move the vessel from the stove, put the sauce into jars, and seal while hot. This will keep in wide mouth ed bottle if it is we'll corked and dipped in paraffin.

BETTER RURAL SCHOOLS

The little one-room school of tba rural districts is rapidly disappearine, In some of the states where intelli- gent thought and inancial support is given to the public schools.
 It is reported that in Indiana last year 40 per cent of the farm boys and girls attended the consolidated schools in that state. In 1910 there were but 446 consolidated schools in Indiana. The number had grown to 665 in 1915 with adequate facilities for agriculture and domestic science as we'll as the common branches taught in the public schools. These schools have adequate buildings and are able to pay salaries sufficient to get the best teachers. The state SUD- plements the salary and the teachers ar kept in the community to assist the young peoples clubs during vaca- tion.
 One of the faults with our system of puplic schools is that the term is very short the salary available for teachers inadequate, consequently only the young teacher who is prepar- ing for a better salary is willing to take the school. This experience helps to secure better position or affords money with which to attenc the normal or the university. The teacher leaves as soon as the short term is closed and the community has no leadership till the next term opens with new teacher the following year.
 Now that more funds hape been ap- propriated for some of the rural schools of Texas let us give attention to consolidation so it may be expend- ed to the benefit of as many pupils as possible. Two or three districts may often be suitable for consolidation where agriculture and domestic sci ence may be taught and where the term may be extended The consoli- dated school is the solution where the roads are good enough to permit transportation in case some live con- siderable distance from school.
 It is patriotic duty of every patron to assist the school officials in plann- ing and administering the schools economically with view of getting a dollars worth of service for every dollar expended. Our standard of education should not be estimated ac- cording to the money We spend as is so often done, but upon the standard of efficiency of the public schools and higher educational institutions.
 Consolidation of rural schools where conditions are favorable increases

:, CHRISTIAN ADMINISTRATION

The Christian charc- . of Woodrow Wilson is we'll known Snd be is one of the most apt Bible .ho,ors and as regular church atten- aant as there is in the land. Both the President and the vlce-Presldent are ruling elders and consistent n,ombers-the one of the church, South. and the other of the church. North In the Cabinet we are not surprised to find men of exemplary nety and religious devotion as Will son would hardly be accosiated with ard other kind and there we see the pantist Deacon, the Episcopal Vest ,un,an the Methodist Steward and tbe presbvterian Ruling Elder work ;ro together in peace and harmon" and are keeping the unity of the Spi- rit in the bonds of peace. Of them if can be said religiously as well as noliticallv. Behold how good and how pleasant it is for bretheren to dwell together in unity"
 Mr. Bryan has been known all his life as a devout and faithful follower of the Prince of Peace and is always in his place at church on Sunday and thought the most consecrated man was out and that there would not be such high religious tone. But when the new Secretary of State came in to take his place it was soon realized that he would also take Bryan's place in the church and while he was not se- ected on account of his religion yet when they sought throughout America to find the most capable internation- al lawyer to manage the State De- partment in these critical days there was no surprise that this man. was Robert Lansing and that he was an humble yet strong man of God. That he has the courage of a Daniel was shown the other day just after his promotion to be head of the State Department, when a brother Cabinet member and a Foreign Diplomat each invited him to a fashionable six o'clock dinner, but he declined as that was the evening for the midweek prayer meeting service at the church and he never allows social pleasures to inter fere with his church duties. He not only attends church twice on Sunday to receive inspiration and show his devotion to Jesus Christ, but also goes
 
 to the prayer meeting that he may get strength and knowledge to sustain him in his ardous work in managing the great duties of the Government In these days of darkness and perplex- lty. No such flimsey excuses are made by him as sometimes are heard oy the less noteworthy, as "am too ured,' it is too hot" or, "I'm too busy Surely with such men as these Tn the highest places of our Govern meht' We can rest assured that the very best Is being done and that we can be assured that the Lord, the 1ulder of the Ship of State, will safe ly lead us.

CHILE SAUCE RECIPES

The following recipes will be found useful in preparing a popular and ec- onomical sauce:
 Recipe No. 1.
 Scald and peel sound, ripe. red to- matoes. Chop into small pieces bv pressing through a half-inch screen or by running through coarse meat chopper
 36 pounds of tomatoes.
 pounds of chopped onions.
 lo ounces of ripe bullnose peppers
 (atter stems and seeds have been
 removed.)
 The bullnose peppers should be hot enough to give the proper flavor to the sauce. In case they are too mild. small amount of cayenne should be added. A pound of the large sweet, or Chinese. peppers, if they can be had, will also add richness and color Put into granite-ware or enameled kettle and concentrate to IS pounds. Because of the tendency to settle on the obttom of the kettle and burn, it Is a good plan to allow the tomatoes to stand for a few minutes after chopping, during which time consider able juice will separate out. This can be poured off and placed in the kettle and concentrated before the rest of the above ingredients are added. After concentrating to IS pounds, add PA pounds of cider vinegar and 9 ounces of salt.
 Concentrate further to 181apounds and add 6 pounds of sugar. Boil slowly to 10 minutes. Put into jars that have been washed in boiling wa ter and seal while hot. The above quantity will yield about 23 pounds, or sufficient to fill 1S to 20 pint jars.
 Throughout the boiling care must be exercised by stirring to keep the ingredients from settling to the bot tom and burning. This is especially necessary after the sugar is added. In order to weigh the contents of the kettle at different stages in the pro cess of concentrating, the weight of the empty kettle should be noted at the start. The kettle, with it's con- tents, can then be set on the scales or hung on the balance from time to time without inconvenience, and the weight of the contents easily deter mined. This sauce is not likely to mold; but, as precaution against efficiency and promotes economy. It is means of giving boys and girls a chance to attend high school without the necessity of their parents moving to town.-Farm and Ranch.

Not an Accident, but a Crime.

From the Westliche Post.
 The dreadful disaster in Chicago that claimed thousand human lives was not an accident; it was a crime. Only criminal neglect of the rules ard regulations established for the safety of passengers made it possible, And this neglect was the more flag rant as the same steamer had on an- other occasion escaped the same fate by only the narrowest of margins. Of course, there are now the usual lamentations about the fearful sacri- fee of human beings and the custo- mary investigations to fix the respon- sibility will be held; but that any last ing good should result there-from |need not be expected. One would have thought that the Gen. Slocum ca |tastrophe would have been a salutary lesson to excursion boat owners, but they evidently have not profted there by, and We doubt that Chicago's tor for that matter our own) playhouses are less dangerous today than was the Iroquois Theater at the time when it became the fry grave of 700 people.
