Change in Doors
May Be Ordered

A discussion this morning between
DR.. W. W. Apple, Mayor A. W. Swan
son. and Frank Reading, foreman of
the grand jury, concerning the state
law which says all doors on public
buildings must swing outward, may
result in recommendation by the
grand jury urging change. Read
ing declined to sayfwhether the grand
jury would take any action on the
question.
Changes were made on , buildings
in FL Centre through direct action of
the state law. Reading, who was as
sociated with the city building in
specting department for time last
June, caused the doors of the Barbara
Worth hotel which open onto the
street to be changed so they swing
outward instead of inward.
A similar change was made at the
Central Union High School during the
time DR.. Apple was a member of the
High School board. Original con-
struction of doors in the building
which communicated directly with the
outside was such that the doors swung
inward Later the existence of the
state law was discovered and the
doors were changed to swing in the
opposite direction.

There'll be a decided flare to the
new spring coats, but it will be a
modest little ripple quite unlike the
riotous billow of coats we are wear
ing now.
To give you hint of the sort Of
gown you'll be buying next spring
I've sketched this stunning creation
of white velvet and beaver in the stu
dio of Nine May Bassler, whose de
signs are among the smartest sent
forth by the Fashion Art League of
America.
Notice how the lines of the coat
run into greatly modified but grace
full ripples; the deep belt, the long,
narrow sleeves, the oddly-shaped pock-
cts, the sharply pointed tunic of the
skirt-there are the "fashion ideas"
you'll see embodied in the blue serges,
the brown duvtynes or the green
broadcloths that smartly gowned
women will wear in early spring.

NEWS. or A CENTURY AGO
Journals at That Time "RoiIed Down"
the Information They Gave TO
Their Readers.


Boston newspapers Of lis years age
alike in their methods Of handling
news matter. OF course, at the earlier
period the cables were not available,
and the editors had to depend upon
the kindness of ship captains for news
papers from abroad. from which to Gull
their foreign news.
The Massachusetts Mercury had
been published for Is years in Boston.
1t was a small sheet of four pages,
with four columns to the page. 1t pub
lished comparatively little reading
matter as compared with the advertis-
ing which appeared in it, and in most
instances the news items were brief
and to the point. All laws enacted by
the state legislature were made known
to the public by being published in full
in this paper, which was an official
organ.
Contrast the columns that appeared
in the Boston newspapers when the
present pope was elected with the fol.
lowing item, which appeared in the
Mercury, May %, 1900:
"a new pope has been elected and
declared, who is called Plus the VII;
and there has been great rejoicing at
Venice in consequence"
On the same date this item ap-
peared: The duke of York was late
~, when riding. thrown from the sad
die and his foot being entangled in
the stirrup, he was dragged consid-
cradle way-two of his ribs were bro.
ken and he was besides severely wound
ed on his head and arms. There was,
however, prospect of his speedy re.
covery.''
Those were two items the editor
thought worthy of publication from the
news in the foreign papers which had
come to him the night before from
Captain Bates of the ship venelia,
from Dublin in "a days. The papers
were up to April 10 of that year
This little but interesting item ap-
peared in the Mercury of July %:
THE Office of the secretary of state
in the city of Washington has been
broken open and about one hundred
and fifty dollars stolen. The object of
the thieves appears to have been
money alone--as no public papers
were taken"
Can you imagine the Office of the
secretary of state at the national cap
ital being broken into at this time
and the newspapers making no more
fuss over it than that?

Fox-HuNTERs IN THE WAR
Thousands Of Men Who Enjoyed That
Sport in Britain Are Now at
the Front.

Waterloo, according to the duke Of
Wellington, was won on the playing
fields of Elton. Should Britain emerge
triumphant from the present conflict
we may find someone rising to claim
that the campaign in Flanders was
won in the English shires. The shires
are the headquarters of fox-hunting.

only % per cent of it's danger" 1t has
to be admitted, however, that they
who follow the hounds have answered
magnificently to their country's call.
There are, it proves. $50 masters
of hounds with the British colors, 5000
members of hunts and 1.500 hunt serv-
ants. To them must be added the of
ficers of the regular army who are ac-
customed to ride to hounds, likewise
numbering some thousands. The total
is an impressive one. 1t suggests that
the real attraction of this sport may
be that it is, as Jorrocks said, "a sort
of war"

PLAN SUCCESSION OF CROPS
Not Advisable to Have Second Plant
ing Of Same Crop Follow the
First-keep Land Busy.

In planning the location of crops,
consideration should be given to the
matter of succession, in order that
the land may be occupied as large a
part of the time as possible. 1t is
not advisable to have a second plant
ing of the same crop or a closely re-
lated crop follow the first Cabbage
should not follow caulifiower, brus-
sells sprouts, mustard, or kale, for
many of the same diseases and insects
affect all of these crops. Tomatoes,
Elephants and peppers should not fol-
low each other. In some sections
three or four crops can be grown on
the same land each year, while in 9TH
er sections two crops are all that can
be grown to advantage When a crop
is harvested early in the season and
1t is not practicable to plant another
vegetable for two OF three months, the
land may be planted to cowpeas or
crimson clover. For example, after a
crop of early cabbage it may not be
desirable to plant another vegetable
crop until late summer or autumn. In
this case it would be desirable to sow
cowpeas or crimson clover, to be
turned under in preparation for the
fall crop.

PROVIDE BEES WITH, WATER
Place Fountain Near the Hives
Honey Secured From Goldenrod
and Aster IL Of Rich Flavor.
(By B. L. PUTNAM,

When you see the bees clustering
around the watering trough just pro-
vide them fountain near their hives.
This will save time for them and
there will be no more drowned bees
and horses and other stock will not be
stung as they come from the field,
heated and perspiring-a fit mark for
the angry bee.
Surround board of convenient size
with narrow cleat an inch high,
making the shallow trough water
tight. Over this tack a piece of wire
screen, being careful to leave no sharp
edges that will hurt the bees Fill
with watc.~ and note the enjoyment
with which the winged visitors flock
and drink with no possibility of find
ing in it fatal draft They will
drink lots of water now, and if you do
not furnish the pure stun they will
hunt out the nearest cesspool for
moisture they must have.
Do not worry if your fence row is
bordered with goldenrod and aster.
You may not be impressed with the
esthetic effect admired by your city
cousins. but the bees revel in the
sweets afforded and will, from the
weeds, extract supply of honey that
will go long way toward piecing out
their winter store. Beside, golden.
rod honey, when it can be secured in
quantity, is food fit for kings. being,
of rich amber hue and of superior
favor
Remember that honey must ripen
before it is ready for market. When
first made it is thin and watery but
after two or three weeks it acquires
the consistency necessary to the first
class product.
Conversely, if kept in damp place
it soon gathers moisture and becomes
seriously damaged. A cool. dry closet
is preferable to the cellar for storing.
