Ideal Husbands Want
Ideal Wives For
Helpmeets
By GEORGE MIDDLETON.
Playwright

THE ideal wife for each man Is
the wife who makes that man
happiest, who can give him
what he likes and wants. II he is
a modern man-really modern-his
ideal is the modern woman, the
comrade on the same plane Of evo-
luton as himself. IF He WANTS
A COOK AND SERVANT LET
HIM MARRY THE WOMAN
WHOSE WHOLE AMBITION is
TO BIZ A COOK AND SERV-
ANT.
The ideal husband is the man
who brings out the best In his wife
The trouble with the husband Of to
day Is that he doesn't understs nd
the modern woman.
TIE oIsTINcTIvELY MODERN
WOMAN HAS REAL DIFFICULTY
IN FINDING THE SORT OF MAN
WHOM SHE OUGHT TO MARRY.
Some Of the happiest marriages
] know are those in which both hus-
band and wife are contributing TO
the expenses Of the household.

NATIONAL PROHIBITION

II is impossible to escape the belief
that the recent test OF strength in
Congress portends the near approach
of national prohibition. One hun
dred and ninety-seven votes were
cast for the amendment. and Is9

be assumed that a clear majority OF
the total membership of the House
would vote for the prohibition amend.
ment IL the total membership could be
coralled and compelled to vote.
The growth OF the prohibition senti-
ment during the past ten years has
been little short of phenomenal. Con-
tinued growth in the same line will
within a few years give II decided
majority. Practically 80 per cent. OF
the rural territory of the United
States is to-day dry territory. The
strongholds OF the wet forces are in
the cities. Only the enormous wet vote
In Cincinnati. Toledo and other Ohio
cities defeated the prohibition amend.
ment in that State in November. Il
may be assumed, therefore. that the
States with large city population will
be the last 10 be submerged by the
prohibition wave. Herein lies the
hope Of the anti-prohibition forces.
The cities OF the United States are
growing in population more rapidly
than the country districts.

EASIER MONEY WILL
CHANGE RAILROAD

Speculation upon future railway
building at a time when no railroad
can either earn or borrow dollar to
build with must seem out of time,
but inference may be drawn from the
Investigations which the Denver &
Rio Grande railroad has made dur
ing the past two years, regarding
routes from the San Luis valley into
the San Juan basin, that as soon as
money is again obtainable for con-
struction. there will be some railway
building, either from South Fork of
the Rio Grande or from Antonito,
via Ojo Caliente and Chamita to the
San Juan.
From all that can be gathered it is
estimated that it will cost four mil
lion dollars to build a standard
gauge line of eighty miles from
South Fork of the Rio Grande river
to Pagosa and on to the main line
now running to Durango
This would include standardizing
the road into Durango, and this
would put Pennington, New Mexico
at the end of main southwest line,
at least temporarily.
Should the road be built from
South Fork, it is undetermined
whether it would go via Stollsteimer
creek or over to Juanita, on the San
Juan river. Both grades are good,
the latter the longest
The burden of the practical rail
road mans conviction today is the
minimum grade and maximum haul,
and this finds strong support with
Rio Grande people for the southern
line which would be much longer,
but would give the minimum grade.

Little Rock.

Little Rock
Commissioner of Agriculture Page
sees a rift in the clouds hanging about
the heads of farmes in the oYerhoWed
districts of Arkansas. Part of the
forage crops in the inundated sections
according to Mr.. Page, can be used for
silage. The following suggestions are
made for the benefit Of the farmers OF
the flooded district:
There is great regret at the recent
misfortune due to the flood, and there
is a general inclination among all
classes to lend a helping hand TO you
in the midst of distress and adversely.
Much of the corn and forage crop re-
Gently flooded has no doubt been de'
stroyed and much more damaged for
use in the usual way. However, corr
sorghum, Kafir corn and sorghum cane
can be used for silage where the own
ers have silos but as these exist IN
but few cases but little of the forage
crop can be saved in this way. Per
haps the best method of utilizing these
crops would be in silage, where silo@
are available. Extra precautlon should
e exercised in the making and use OF
silage from crops flooded to avoid the
mold silage, which is dangerous to use
especially to horses and mules.
81 received from the Crossett Lum
Der Company a few days ago a yer!
generous offer to the farmers in thu

in silos to save their forage crops thi
way. l shall be glad to co-operat
