SUDDEN
END OF THE WAR
SUDDEN END OF WAR is THE
PREDICTION OF EBERT H.
GARY.

San Francisco, July 10.-In a
speech delivered at dinner in his
honor by the Commercial Club of
San Francisco, Ebert H Gary, chair
man of the board of directors of the
United States Steel corporation, pre-
dicted an Unexpectedly quick ending
of the European war. He added that
peace would bring about an unpre
cedented prosperity for the United
Staes. Judge Gar ysaid in part:
"Much has transpired during the
last few years in the United States
and through the world to make the
business man despondent. Invest
ment has hesitated. Prosperity has
diminished.
Idle men and idle utilities for the
production of wealth have been un-
usually large in number. Conditions
have been unnatural and deplorable.
ut is not proposed to speak in
terms of reproach. 1t is more agree
able to consider the possibilities of
the future.
eve have been living upon hope
for improvement and now have we'll
grounded reasons for expectations.
Sees Wars End Near.
"We are approaching the end of a
war that has been and still is de-
stroying life and property almost be-
yond human calculation. The end
may not come Immediately, but it
will come much sooner than expect
ed by many, including some of those
who are most actively participating.
"The appalling and. daily increas-
ing losses in life and in prosperity to
each of the belligerents cannot be
long endured by any of them. AL
ready there are signs of fatigue.
"There is obtainable proof that all
countries involved deeply regret that
the war was ever started. They are
nearing exhaustion. They are sick
at heart. We shall at no distant
day see peace secured.
"There will be preceded a perma-
nent tribunal for the adjudication by
arbitration of all international diff
ferences and the enforcement of its
DEGREES by the nations not directly
connected.
"These results will be brought
about by the masses of the people.
They did not precipitate the war, but
they will end it and insist upon meas
ures to prevent recurrence
Americans probably cannot be Of
much service in this direction at the
present time, whatever their inclina-
tions.
"Throughout our own land we are
to have industrial peace, and as
consequence greater prosperity than
ever before.
"Success in business has again be-
come popular. Those who attack or
obstruct legitimate thrift will be
given a seat upon the toboggan.
Sign of Prosperity.
"If read Alright the signs of the
times, we may look forward with
confidence, to marked improvement
in business results, perhaps not so
soon or so rapid as we could wish,
but as certain and as satisfactory as
the disposition and the action of the
majority of the people themselves
will permit.
eve have the opportunity to be-
come the leading nation of the
world-fnancially, commercially
and industrially. Every diligent,
honest and worthy member of the
community may prosper if he really
wishes, and there will be no room for
the vicious or for the demagogue."

The Doorman's Plea.

The stage doorman of certain New York theater is a doughty Italian of sufficient brawn to guard a much larger portal. Silvestro, as he is called, has been somewhat envious of the showy uniform Of the theaters carriage porter, in contrast to his own unpretentious civilian garb. With a preliminary respectful salute to Mir. Hopkins, owner of the theater, on his way to make up for The Marriage of Columbine,' Silvestro poured out his soul with characteristic variations on the idiom, "Scusi, meester, try do my best, all de time. 1 love my job. I love dis theater, everything Santa love you, l love Mir Hopkins, everybody round de place. l give my heart out, all the time, my soul, my life; nothing l would not give to serve you. Siete soddisfatto? Den, please get me a line cap like da porter's one"

Now the Socialists are the leaders on this question. The working classes. the small wage earners. constitute this party Who better than they know the evil of mtemperance? Woman municipal suffrage has placed many able women in city governments.

LAST WORD IN BREWERY BUILD

An immense placard on the top of big brewery recently erected in Phil adelphia was cause for comment by citizens who saw in it an unintentional prophecy. It read.

BEER A POISON.

BEER A POISON.
 CBy T. D. BROTHERS, NJ. D)
 The boasted claims that beer is a food and gives yigor and strength are contradicted by statistics. In Munich Germany, where the largest quantity Of beer is consumed, per capita, Of any city, the mortality rate from heart and kidney diseases is double that of any other city. Everywhere this is confirmed The beer thinker dies early from diseases of the heart and kidneys.
 If beer had any food clements and were tonic, exact measurements and studies Of statistics would confirm it, but the evidence from these sources is entirely the opposite. The congested face, bloated body and dullness of body and mind are the best evidences of the poisoning and degenerative processes going on. There can be no conflict of opinions on this, because it can be measured and stated in mathe- nautical terms, regardless of the theo- ries.
 Alcohol absorbs the water from the cells and tissues. breaks up and dimin- fshes their nutritive power, while beer creates new fermentive and chemical changes in the stomach. These pro- cesses are cumulative, not only de- stroying the balance between waste and repair, but adding immensely to the waste, which permanently disturbs and destroys the vigor and health of the body.
 Beer is a most insidious poison be- cause it produces other poisons, and starts new processes of degeneration that are unknown until the final col lapse reveals them

PATCHING EGGS IN
 0LD FASHION WAY
TIMELY SUGGESTIONS IN SELEC- TON OF EGGS, NESTING AND FEEDING CHICKS BY A POULTRY SPECIALIST.

When matching eggs with hens, It IS always desirable to select quiet place and make a nest of clean hay or straw in a shallow box or barrel laid on It's side It is preferable to have this nest on the ground if there is no danger of floods during rainy weather. Make the nest big enough so the eggs can not be rolled out easily. In deep nests there is danger of breaking eggs when the hen leaves or gets on the nest.
 Select quiet hen that has been broody for several days and place her on nest with a few cull eggs or nest eggs in it, and allow her to stay on these eggs for two or three days before giving her the eggs to be hatched
 It is especially advisable to make sure that the hen is free from lice. Lousy hens stand on the eggs and pick instead of keeping the eggs warm. If the hen has lice dust her freely with Persian insect powder or take bit of blue ointment the size of pea and rub 1t on the skin under the vent. Both remedies can be bought at any drug store, and are effective. Repeat the treatment after nine or ten days to kill the lice that hatch. Provide feed and water where the hen can leave the nest and get to them easily Cracked corn and wheat make a good feed
 Selecting Eggs.
 The eggs for matching should be carefully selected from freshly laid eggs that have not been chilled. When hens are not laying many eggs 1t is advisable to put the eggs in dry bran, small end down. leaving the up per end or air space uncovered. Place the box in cool place that will not drop below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Se- lect eggs of uniform size, as they will not be broken as easily in the nest. Do not pick the largest eggs. Select the average sizes, avoiding thin, thick or irregular shells. Use nine to 15 eggs, depending on the size of the hen.
 Test the eggs about the tenth or fourteenth day. This can be done by holding them before lamp light in d dark room, if an egg tester is not avail able. Remove all clear eggs and sucn dark eggs as show the contents to be fluid, as these eggs will decay and it broken in the nest will prevent other eggs from hatChing.
 Remove Bad Eggs.
 It is advisable to remove all un- hatchabe eggs, as it allows a better chance for the fertile ones. When matching begins, generally on the tWentyhrst day for hen eggs, if the hen is quiet. leave the chicks until all are matched unless the hen has a tendency to leave the nest with the first few hatched It is decidedly tho best to give the chicks water, but with hold feed for at least 4S hours.

RESTRICT BEER OUTPUT.

According to the Lokal Anzeiger, re strictions have been imposed on beer production in Germany. First, the brewers were required to cut down the amount of malt 30 per cent. Then a decrease of 40 per cent was or dered-the authorities, later, to fix definitely the amount of malt each brewery may consume

RADISHES, RHUBARB, SAL
 SHY, AND SPINACH

Washington, D. C., April 1.-The radish is quite hardy and may be grown in the open all winter in the lower South and in cold frames in the upper South. Sow the seed in the open ground as soon as danger of hard frosts is over, or in cold frames whenever space is available. In the open, SOW the seed in drills 12 to 15 inches apart and thin the plants to 1 inch apart. Successive paintings should be made every ten days or two weeks until hot weather comes and again in the autumn when the weath- CT begins to get cool.
 Varieties recommended: There are three types of radishes-turnip-s -shap ed, ve-shaped, and long. Of the turnip- shaped, the best varieties are the Scarlet Globe and Scarlet Turnip. The best of the olive-shaped sorts are the French Breakfast and Early Scar let The long Scarlet Chartier, Long White Spanish, and Icicle are the best varieties of the long type
 Rhubarb
 This crop can be grown in the upper South, but can not be grown satisfac- torily in the lower South. For home use it is best to buy roots from a dealer rather than to grown plants from seed. Ten to twelve good hills are sufficient for the average family.
 Set the roots to feet apart along the garden fence and manure havily. The treatment suggested for aspara- gus is satisfactory for rhubarb. Do not allow the plants to go to seed.
 Salsify, or Vegetable Oyster.
 Sow seeds of salsify at the same time and in the same manner as those of parsnips and carrots. An ounce of seed will plant a 100-foot row and should be sufficient for an average family After the plants are up, thin them to about inches apart in the row. Salsify may be dug and stored
