1t will not only be interesting but it
will be profitable for you to read that
little national dairy magazine, Kim

semi-monthly at Waterloo, Iowa, the
hub of the great dairy region of the
central west. It's ably edited, well
printed on good book paper and hand

purpose is educational and to the man
who would make his COWS yield larger
profits, this little magazine is indis-
pensable. Regardless Of how many
other papers the farmer may take, this
one is worth many times its price to
him. The subscription price is only
30 cents year, and the paper will

angle, and in the opinion Of these
experts, 1t was complete in every de-
tail.
The law has been proven to be law
proof, but in the words OF the Chi
cago Herald, it is not politician-proof
In this respect II Is like any other
good piece of legislation which leaves
the politicians out In the cold-they
are against it. This seems to be the
main trouble with the Vonderheide
food prevention law, and this no
doubt accounts for the Quinlisk and
Carver amendments which are de-
signed to destroy its effectiveness.
What Experts Say.
In referring to the Vonderheide
law, Judge Horace s. Oakley, Of Chi
cago, has repeatedly said that while
it affords a legal basis for food pre-
vention work, this law does not in
any way specify methods. That mat
ter is left to the discretion OF the
courts, as is also the matter of hand
ling"the finances in connection with
work under the law.
While in the Miami valley 1t might
be desirable to adopt a system of dry
reservoirs for protection, some other
part Of the state may find some other
method more feasible hence the law
was made broad enough to cover any
possible emergency.
Law Is MsrepreSented.
The opponents are connecting the
reservoir plan of the Miami valley
with the law in a manner to imply
that the plan is a part Of the law.
Such is not the case. The Miami val
ley plan is only made possible by the
law and is not part of it. The same
applies to the situation at Columbus
and may apply to any other section
of the state under any plan that may
be adopted.
However, in the case of the Miami
valley, the fight is being waged on
the law in order to make the dry
reservoir plan impossible The op-
ponents are advocating channel In
provensent instead.
In speaking of the dry reservoir
plan as it applies to the valleys which
have adopted it, some of the coun-
try's most eminent engineers have
said that this is the only plan by
which real protection may be secured.
From the standpoint of expense and
from every other standpoint, it is the
most desirable plan.
Channel improvement in the Miami
conservancy district alone, would en-
tail an expenditure of more than
$100,000,000 and the cost of mainte-
nance would be proportionately large.
The dry reservoir plan would cost
cbout $17,000,OO0, and not one cent
of this will be asked through state
appropriation. The property benefit
ed will pay the cost. This alone is
an argument in its favor. The hazard
attached to the dry reservoir plan has
also been referred to by the opposi-
lion. The engineers have plainly
shown that there is no hazard. The
construction is such that the valley
would have complete protection above
and below the storage basins.
1t SINNERS down, finally, to a plain
case Of where ONO Is suffering, not
only through suspense caused by the
delay, but in the eyes of the whole
country, for we will be referred to as
flood state which does not want to
keep on its statute books food law.

Suffragists plan to make the coun-
try bloom with yellow, the suffrage
color, just as a reminder that this is
the greatest suffrage campaign year
in the history of the movement.
The suffrage garden" idea origi-
mated with Pennsylvania woman
who had no money to give to the
cause, and gave instead golden idea.
The Woman Suffrage association of
Pennsylvania has arranged to have
packages of seeds containing six diff
ferent kinds of flower seeds to be
distributed among suffragists the
country over. Flowers that will bloom
successfully from spring until fall
have been selected by the Pennsyl-
vania women for the floral suffrage
maps they hope to see blooming next
summer in the garden or the window
box of every loyal suffragist.

About two years ago St Augustine's
mission among the colored people OF
Providence, r. L., wasiinitiated, writes
a correspondent of The Living Church.
From recent account in church pa
per, note the following: THE church
building used for the services is rent
ed property, and Is likely to be sold at
any moment"
The purpose of this article Is to
point out that as early as 1843 there
was a parish OF colored people in
Providence, Christ church," that the
parish having gone out of existence,
the money for freeing the church
building from. debt having been raised
in England by colored priest, and
turned over to the diocesan authori-
ties in trust, it seems to me that in
this emergency the diocesan authori-
ties should welcome the opportunity
for making restitution. Here is an ex-
tract from the Episcopal address of
Bishop Henshaw. in 1S49. which
throws light upon the matter:
"At the time Of the meeting of the
last annual convention, Rev. Eli w.
Stokes, rector of Christ church in this
city, was absent. in Europe, for the
purpose of soliciting funds to liquidate
the debt by which that parish has
been embarrassed ever since their
house of worship was erected. In
consequence of certificate, required
by the laws of England, furnished by
me- he was received with great kind
ness by the archbishops, bishops and
clergy of our mother church; and | am
happy to inform you that his, mission
the liberal contributions which he re-
ceiyed in that distant land have en-
abled the gentlemen holding the prop
erty In trust TO make a satisfactory
settlement. with the mortgages. The
congregation is now free from debt.
and our colored brethren have wisely
made over their corporate property to
the board of commissioners for church
building with view of security
against embarrassment and incum-
brance for the time to come. The
Christian generosity with which our
English brethren answered the appeal
made to them in behalf of that feeble
parish has been duly acknowledged in
a letter addressed by me to his grace
the archbishop of Canterbury, and
through him to the church over which
he worthily presides."
