Iunket for Hot Weather.

Junket is a fayorite dish in hot
weather, and is extremely easy and
cheap to make. needing nothing but
the rennet and a little sugar and fla
voring and only care to see that the
precise blood heat is reached when the
rennet is added. Tiny children of less
than a year old may well be given this
and will often ind It acceptable. in hot
weather especially. when ordinary

The adoption by the Baptist con-
vention of the report to locate the pro-
posed Negro seminary at Memphis
came after considerable discussion.
Nashville submitted a pleasing prop
osition for the location of the sem
mary, but because of the distance to
Nashville from the center of Negro
population to be benefited by the sem
mary, it was decided hat Memphis
would be a more suitable place. 1t
was agreed to raise at an early date
$500 for this purpose. DR.. Milton
z. Griggs, Negro, of Tennessee, made
a profound impression and showed the
fine spirit of brotherliness and CO.
operation which exists between the
white and the Negro Baptists. His
address showed a fine spirit of loyal
ty to the South and the white people.
He acknowledged the debt which he
and his people owed to the South and
to the southern people. He said that
it was here that he got his language,
his knowledge Of industry and his re-
ligion, hat he was proud of his race
and of the white people. He declared
that the white people of the South
have helped the Negroes far beyond
their calculations, giving them new
unity and inspiring them to self-uplift
and self-help. He declared that the
work of the southern white people is
affecting the Negro, not externally
but in a real emancipation Of the
race. One-third of the voting strength

Booker Washington, accompanied
by a company of rs other educated
colored men, has recently made a
visit to larger centers of population
in Louisiana. The coming of the Wis
TORS was widely advertised in ad-
vance, and Negroes gathered in large
numbers to attend the meetings held.
Some journeyed ten, twenty and even
forty miles-on mule back, in buggy,
in wagon. At Shreveport, on the west
ern border of the state, ten thousand
gathered principally to hear Mr..
Washington. He was the chief speak
er and principal attraction at all
points. White citizens of prominence
lent encouragement to the meetings
by their presence. Booker Washing
ton gave wise and wholesome counsel
to both races. In talking to the whites
he reminded them that it is better to
educate Negroes han to take care Of
criminals; that Louisiana paid too
high a compliment to Negro children
by assuming that a Negro child could
get a satisfactory education by Civ
ing him only three or four months
schooling in the year; that the nation
hears too much about ~lynchings and
racial difficulties and too little about

Ing to follow in this great work and
labor in concert for the future of the
race. This theological seminary for
the Negroes will doubtless prove a
great forward step in all their work.
1t was a humiliating position in
which the son of Abraham Lincoln
found himself when he admitted to
the industrial commission that the
great Pullman company vas the real
recipient of the tips to its colored por-
tiers. This concern, whose stock is so
closely held and so highly valued as
to be almost never sold, has paid on
an average s per cent ever since its
foundation. At the same time, it gives
to its colored employees less than a
living wage, and expects them to make
up the difference between that and
what they need to live on out of the
gratuities of travellers. Mr.. Lincoln
thought that on the whole the COM
pany was entitled to great credit for
keeping this field Of employment open
to Negroes, who are so often discrim-
mated against. But it may well be
doubted whether the philanthropic
motive would be noticed in the Pull
man company if it were compelled
to pay the wages it should. The Ia
borer is worthy of his hire; and when
Mr.. Lincoln so complacently patted
himself on the back for employing
colored labor at all, he ought to re-
member that failure to obtain sufficient
tips by reason of interference with
traffic, slackness of travel, or hard
times has brought many a porters
family face to face with genuine suf-
fering-even when he wore four and
five service stripes on his coat-sleeve'
That under these circumstances por-
tiers have yielded so little to tempta-
ton that their record for fidelity and
honesty and for heroic service in &C
cidents is admirable, is plainly no fault
of Lincoln's son. The descendants
of the men the father freed have long
been exploited, overworked-often
without sleep enough for long stretches
to keep a men well-and u~nderpaid
besides by the company of which the
emancipator's son has been the head.

NO LIMITATION TO BEET
SUGAR CULTURE IN GERMANY

According to a report of John @.
Wood, United States Consul at Chem
nitz, Germany, recently given ont by
the State Department, regarding the
sugar situation in Germany, the Bun
desrat has been persuaded to change
the plan previously proposed by the
Prussian minister of agriculture for a
large decrease in the beet sugar acre
age for 1915, and has adopted a plan
whereby the farmers are given full
liberty to plant as they see fit. They
may plant their full acreage in sugar
beets, but are not required to deliver
more than IS per cent Of the output
TO the factories with which they had
contracts.
On account of the lack of fertilizers
and the scarcity of farm hands some
of the farmers We're not in a position
to fulfill their contracts for planting a
certain number of acres, and this was
one of the reasons for the decision
which has been reached by the Bun
desrat
The high price Of feed and the di-
verse uses of sugar beets will no doubt
induce planter to restrict their acreage
as little as possible, but the area plant
ed of course will depend to some ex-
tent upon the amount of farm help
available and the supply of the neces-
sarv fertilizing materials.
Consul Wood reports that there were
strong objections to anv governmental
restriction of the acreage devoted to
beets on account of the value of this
crop, the farmers claiming that one
acre of beets is more valuable in its
food output than four planted in
wheat. The high value of sugar beets
in supplying feed for horses. cattle
and hogs of course was taken into ac-
count in this reckoning.
Recently sugar beets have become an
important factor in the alcohol indus
try. The average brand of alcohol has
been increased in value from sixty to
100 per cent on account of the use of
sugar and sugar beets The decrease
in the supply of benzine in Germany
has been offset very largely by the
added use of alcohol made from sugar
beets to the great advantage of the ar
my motor ears.
Another fact of extreme Importance
brought out in the report is that
through the employment of sugar beets
for alcohol large quantities of potatoes
and grain have been diverted to sup
plying the demand for foodstuffs.

BIG STAKES AND
PURSES FOR RACES

The 1915 summer race meeting will
open at Reno on July 18th and close
August 21st, giving 30 days of racing.
There will be $4,000 in stakes and
purses, with five stakes of a total
guaranteed value of $4,000. The larg-
est will be $4,000, for the winner of
the Nevada Derby. There will be no
purse less than 5000.
George Wingfeld, who recently re-
turned from the Denver meeting, where
he had several horses entered, has the
following to say in last nights Reno
Gazette:
From 1900 to 1,500 people will
come to Reno when the racing meet
opens. On Saturday there were II 900
people at the race track in Denver. The
meeting is success in every way
and the Reno meeting is bound to be
also. 1t is well conducted and no one
can say that everything that goes on
is not good and proper. Denver has
adopted the same rules as has Reno,
and no person with a bad reputation
is allowed within the track.

RULES FOR WALKING
ON RAILROAD TRACKS

The first and most important rule is
akin to an Irish bull Don't walk on
the track if you can possibly find any
other road, path or field to walk on.
But if YOU must walk ON the track
then be sure to look behind you fire.
quently, especially if the wind is blow
ing in the opposite direction as you
are walking. On the approach of a
train, look around and let the engineer
know that you see him Don I wait
nutil he is almost upon you--don Z
leave him in doubt Don't compel him
to whistle for YOU. Your danger CRATES
on his nerves and the unnecessary
whistling CRATES still more on the
nerves of the peaceful dwellers along
the tracks. If on double track rail
road, walk ON the track on which trains
come to meet you; but don Z neglect to
look behind vou often, for trains some
times run on one track in both direc-
tions
Never chop moving car or en-
gine; it is always dangerous; always
gets your hands (and often your
clothes) dirty, and very rarely brings
a reward
Finally. the famous advice of Punch
about telling jokes applies with sledge
hammer force TO walking on tracks

about the head and had his right eye

IN GRASS VALLEY

During the coming two weeks twenty

land cleared and win this year raise
what garden truck they need.
Last week James Edmunds cut mis-
first crop of alfalfa, securing a good
return, considering the fact that it was
only planted last July. Samples of fall
wheat and rye will be taken to Reno
tonight by r. A. Allen, the University
expert, and from there forwarded to
San Francisco, where it will be placed
in the Nevada building at the Exposi-
tion. 1t is expected that both exhibits
will take prizes, as the wheat stands
over FIVE and the rye considerably over
six feet high, with the heads well
filed.
These crops were irrigated from
wells, and the results are extremely
gratifying to all interested in this
form of irrigation.
