Good Crops and Factories Running
Says Letter Written to Conway

Says Letter Written to Conway
John Miller, Of Conway received a
letter, dated October 20. from his
sister in Germany yesterday. She
says that they have had bumper
crops, that food is plentiful, the fac
tories are all running steadily and
business goes on as usual. The only
realization they have of the war go
ing on is the coming of the wounded
and cripples back from the front.
Ebingen. Wurtemburg, where she
lives, have about 1000 population
and the losses from this town to date
are about 1875. Her two sons have
both been killed, one. who was in the
artillery at the beginning of the war
at the siege of Liege, and the other III
the campaign in Russian Poland.
His brothers son, Frederick Miller,
brought down French aeroplane and
won the iron cross and was promoted
to LIST lieutenant. There are three
camps in the neighborhood of Ebing-
en- OF Russian, French and English
prisoners.

Every year with the coming of
cold weather the number of fires in
dwelling houses doubles, triples or
quadruples This increase is due
wholly to defective fues. AS houses

ly rusts out during the dampness OF
dog days, and flues which go through
wooden partitions in early fall with

when we begin to force the fires as
we are compelled to when jack frost

householder and every renter should
examine his climneys and other flues
at this season of the year, or have ii

little care thus exercised may save

Boy Scouts Inspected Kansas
 City After Clean Up.
Five Hundred Sharp-Eyed Lads, Trained to Observe Sanitary Con. ditions, Were Made Deputy In. spectors, and Reported All
 Delinquents.

Kansas City has had S3,000 worth of expert sanitary inspection free
 After the city had devoted two weeks to a clean up; after the house. holders and the various clubs and or ganizations had ceased work, and after the last tin can and microbe had been presumably banished, then the Boy Scouts went forth to look the job over.
 The clean up campaign started April 12. The Boy Scouts made their in- spection April 24, thousand of them giving one day to the work. Those property owners and tenants who had Tot properly brushed up their prem ises, raked their back yards and taken care of their alleys and basements were reported by the scouts to the board of health, and the city sanitary department will use sterner methods
 By training the Boy Scouts are ex- perts in sanitation. It is a scout law that he must be clean. Also he is sharpeyed, for his scout activities call into play the faculties of a frontiers man. AS a spOtter of microbes he should excel.
 Five hundred of the scouts who were called into this service had prac- tical sanitary experience last summer in establishing a flyless camp at Elk Springs Mo. True, it was outdoors, and the floors of their tents were earth, but bit of paper out of place, burnt match carelessly thrown down, a scrap of food that a scout had failed to burn, drew the displeasure of the camps in- spectors. These scouts saw that their own premises in Kansas City were shining example, and then they tried to bring their neighbors to their idea of spotlessness
 The services of the scouts were re- quested both by Doctor Paquin, new adviser of the health department, and T. M. Finn, president of the hospital and health board They clothed the scouts with the powers of deputy sanitary inspector. A. J. Watson. scout commissioners accepted gladly with the assurance that the work of the scouts would be backed up by the clty's regular sanitary force

RESOLUTIONS PASSED BY
 BRUSHY CREEK LOCAL

The Nevada County Farmers Union met with Brushy Creek Local April 8th and 9th, 1915. The following are the resolutions passed:
 Resolution No. 1. In looking over the items cut out of the general ap- propriation bill by the Senate of our last legislature, just adjourned, we notice the item for enforcing our Fer tilizer Law has been stricken out. Knowing that every state that touches has a very rigid law on the sale of fertilizer and fertilizer material and knowing we can ascertain the amount of plant food only by chemical analy- sis, and since we have no means of making analysis, therefore, our farm CTS will have no protection whatever and orr state will be made the dump ing ground for all the worthless fer tilizer that cannot be sold in other states, therefore
 Be It Resolved, by the Nevada County Farmers Union: 1st. That We condemn the action of our Senators in this matter. 2nd That we hope the Governor may see fit to issue his proclamation giving the Secretary of Agriculture the power to enforce the Law
 Resolution No. ?. Whereas the ills that the agriculturalists and other wealth producers are suffering, is caused by class legislation and, where as this class legislation is secured by political alliance, therefore

Who Lives There ?

A combination of neat lawn, we'll trimmed trees and shrubs and we'll painted house almost always attracts the eye of the passer-by and pro vokes the question: "Who lives there?' And the tone of the question is a compliment to the cleanliness. love of order regard for neighbors. and public spirit of the owner There Is another kind of house and lawn that prompts the same question. But that kind-well, we all know it too well. It doesn't need describing. It needs cleaning up.

ROYAL IN ITS MAGNlFlCENCE
"Founder's Room" in Pittsburgh Car negie Library Is a Splendid
 Apartment.

A recent report of the Pittsburgh Carnegie library contains a picture of the founders room" of which a writer in the Boston Evening Tran script says:
 Tt seems to be a vast apartment, about fifty or sixty yards long and nearly as wide. It has indirect light, ing and a Jagged floor, upon which one might play hopscotch if 70 felt inclined. There are four or five thrones in the room, one on each side of the fireplace, and there is table with a lamp on it. The room is very mag nifcent; it has all the sPaciousness and discomfort of royal palace.
 What MT. Carnegie does in this room we are not told. There are no sleeping accommodations, unless one of the thrones is really folding bed. It does not look cozy enough to use for an office"

Dress and Sex Equality.
Baltimore American.

Baltimore American.
 It is apparently inevitable that, sooner or later, the question of cloth les should get mixed in with the votes for-women proposition. The question of dress reform began to mix in 50 years ago, back when Susan B. An thony was spreading the equal suff- rage gospel in the face of irreverent and contumacious opposition. It is not surprising, therefore, to find one of the contemporary 'ncw women" '" Mrs. French Sheldon, who has made a record as an explorer, biz game hun ter, doctor, artist, author and sculp- tor, remarking, AS long as women are slaves to clothes, they are slaves"
 Mrs. French is an Englishwoman; she is an F. R. c. S., which might stand for female rights granted soon, but means that she is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. She gained this distinction by touring darkest Africa and bringing back val uable original observations and dis coveries-zoological, anthropA gicai, and geographical. Naturally she will be classed as bluestocking, but what is the new woman if not a bluestock- ing?
 She is an ardent apostle of the new woman movement-of sex equality. She consistently mixes dress reform in her politics. She says "the hour of woman has struck There was never such a phenomenal opportunity offered to woman as this war has giv- en us. We must take advantage of this opportunity and prepare for the great work that women will have to do after the war" But also she de clares that everything else being equal women allow themselves to be handicapped by dress" She doesn't want women to dress less artistically, or be less feminine in clothes. No, not that! But they must learn to rid themselves of the trivial details or dress as men have done"

HOPE FERTILIZERS
 ARE THE BEST

MT. Good Farmer:
 Don't be misled and fail to buy Fertilizer this year. It iS more In portant than ever before. There arc a number of people who will not buy Fertilizer this Spring thinking they will cut expenses. While cutting eX- penses this way they will also cut down the acreage of their crop and you probably will need a good crop more this year than you have ever needed it before. This is a late Spring and you will need Fertilizer to push your crop.
 The Hope Fertilizer Co.,, has all the material necessary to make good Fer tilizer, and we are prepared to give you better satisfaction than ever be- fore.
