YALE PROFESSOR TELLS
WHY HE IS FOR WILSON
Irving Fisher, Member of Roosevelts
Conservation Commission, Sets
Forth Good Reasons

whole the Wilson administration
has been more constructive than any
previous administration for gene
raticn. The Federal Reserve Act,
the Farm Loan Act, the Underwood
Act, the Child Labor Act and a half
dozen others of Importance are a
monument, and an imposing one, to
MIR. Wilson's efficiency in opposing
preparing and pushing legislation
through Congress.
s. | also think that Mr.. Wilson has
withstood, with remarkable firmness,
the tremendous pressure of office
seekers and maintained, as well as
any previous President, especially at
a change of administration, the prin-
ciples of civil service reform. The at
tempt to prove the contrary has fail
ed.
9. Like many other voters, | am
repealed, rather than attracted, by a
campaign of carping criticism in
which the speeches of the Republican
candidate consist chiefly in fault
finding, even where faults are to be
found. Ridicule is a cheap political
device which ill BELTS Mr.. Hughes.

NOT MUCH OF A
SHOWER, ANYWAY

Some of my Republican brethren in
this section affect to hold in light
concern the Progressive OBJECTIONS
from Hughes. For instance, the Po-
tosi Journal:
Judge Nortoni of st. Louis has
come out in the open as Mooseocrat
and will work for the Democratic
ticket. The Judge has just about
enough political influence to turne one
vote. He's dead one"
This reminds me of an incident said
to have been attendant upon Noah's
flood. As the ark, in the rapidly ris-
ing waters, swept by an elevated
spot of terra firma, an individual sub
merged breast-high cried out, open
the door and let me in!" "Ccn't do
it," said Skipper Noah; you've had
your chance to be saved, but neg
lected it. Good bye!" The abandoned
man cheerfully called out, go long
with your darned old boat! | don't
believe its going to be much of a
shower, anyway" Brethren, this is
going to be quite a shower, with date
set for November z, 1916. Better
come an out OF the wet while the door
is stih open.--Ironton Register.

PART GIRLS AND BOYS
PLAY IN POLITICS

st. Louis. Sept. "a Southeast
Missouri visitor to Democratic State
Headquarters this week brought this
overheard discussion of politics by
two Republican farmers in that sec
ton of the State:
"John" opening the conversation
and addressing "Tom" (and these are
their real names) asked: "Have you
been reading the political news?"
fYes," replied Tom, "Pve been
reading it as l get it in the weekly
papers, and John, do you know that
a great change has taken place since
lust after the war when we COM
mersed voting the Republican ticket =?
You have five boys and ] have three
girls. The management of govern
ment does not interest us as much
as it used to. We are on the shady
side of life, but we ought not to shut
our eyes with prejudice to the inter-
ests of our children"
"You are right, Tom, and do you
know we have been thinking along
the same lines? The issues since we
pinned our faith to the Republican
party have entirely changed and
then, Tom, if you would make man
think long and hard, just bring Sc
rious matters to his own door. / have
five boys as you say" ! have been
watching this war situation. Wife
and l prayed constantly that the Re-
publicans wouldn't nominate Mr..
Roosevelt. We believed it would
mean war and we were thinking about
our boys. | had high opinion of
Judge Hughes. His dignifed course
during the convention impressed me.
But I'm a little shaky about him
since he began to talk--make speech
es. He appears to be thoroughly IN
der the influence of Mr.. Roosevelt.

CANNING PEACHES

Peaches may be canned by either
the ordinary open kettle method or
the cold pack method. Although not
in such general use the cold pack
method saves time and work and re-
suits in fruit of better color, flavor
and shape, according to Miss Bah
Bell and Miss Addie D. Root of the
Missouri College of Agriculture. In
a recent circular published by the col
lege they give directions for canning
peaches by this method.
Select peaches of uniform ripeliess;
scald and plunge them into cold wa
ter and the skin can be easily remov-
ed. The fruit may be canned with
the skin if preferred. If the pits are
left in they give flavor to the fruit
which is desired by many. Place the
rubber on and pack the fruit into the
jar.
Make syrup of any desired con-
sistency. When the sugar is dissolv-
ed and the syrup begins to boil, fill
the Jars with the boiling syrup, Ad-
just tops and partially tighten, place
jars on rack and lower into Gamer
containing hot water. Place the lid
on the Gamer, heat for 16 minutes,
remove the jars, tighten the tops and
cool away from draught.
A Gamer may be either one of the
special outfits that is sold on the mar
ket for this purpose or simply com
mon wash boiler with Slated wood
en- rack in the bottom so that the
glass jars will not be heated quite SC
rapidly and broken.

Perhaps the new Danish Richdag
may ratify the treaty transferring
the Danish West Indies to the United
States. Denmark must realize that
$25, 900 900 is a good deal of money.

TRANSPLANT IN THE FALL

In general the fall is the best time
to plant trees and shrubs on the home
grounds. When planted in the fall.
the plant is given an opportunity to
spend its strength in producing new
root growth rather than top growth.
These new roots are the feeding"
roots and if well established will give
added vigor to the plant the follow
ing year. The protection and health
of the root system is the most i'm
portant consideration in plant grow
ing.
There are some exceptions to this
rule. If the summer and fall seasons
have been unusually dry and the
plant has suffered from drouth, it
may be best to wait until early spring
to transplant, as plants may recuper-
ate during the winter. In some parts
of the country late summer planting
of evergreens has proved best, but
for Missouri early spring planting
seems more satisfactory.
1t is best to transplant all trees and
shrubs in the fall. 1t is possible to
move plants after they have "leafed
out" but there is some danger of Ov-
er-evaporation of moisture from the
leaves and bark which will exhaust
the strength of the roots. The plant
will then show wilt and spend its
strength on new leaves instead of re-
adjusting it's roots. To lessen the
danger from evaporation it is al
ways well to cut the tops back Sc
verely, and if in leaf, the trunk of
the tree should be wrapped with
straw or sphagnum moss to keep it
moist. Trees have been moved as late
as June 1st in central Missouri with
out showing wilt, by using this meth
cd. 1t is better to transplant early
in the morning or late in the after
noon.
Rainy or cloudy days are the best
ones in which to do planting. Trans
plant after the leaves drop in the au-
tumn or before they open in the
spring. Remove injured roots, brok-
en- branches, and cut back the tops.
Preserve the fine hair-like roots; they
are the feeders, the others only serve
as anchors. Never allow the roots to
dry out in the wind or sun. Cover
them with earth or wet straw. Dig
the hole much larger than the spread
of the roots and do not bend or crowd
them. lamp the soil firmly and close
ly about the roots but leavevabout
two inches of loose soil at the surface
These planting rules are important
A. tree lives longer than man; take
time and care in planting it, and in
general, plant in the fall.-H. F. Ma

Sets $4,000
Children Free

The signing of the Federal Child
Labor bill by President Wilson marks
the end of long hard fight for the
protection of the working children
Of the country from the consequences
Of too early toll.
The House passed the measure in
the first half of President Wilson's
first term but it reached the Senate
too late in the session for it to be en-
acted into law. This session it again
passed the House and when there was
shown some disposition to put The bill
over until the December session the
President went himself to the Capitol
to urge it's passage before Congress
adjourned. 1t passed the Senate by a
vote of 81 to IL.
The bill prohibits the shipment in
interstate commerce of the products
of any mine or quarry where children
under Is years are employed, or of
any factory or cannery where chill
dren under IA are employed, or chill
dren under 16 are allowed to work at
night, or more than eight hours a
day. About quarter of million
children are affected by the new sta
tute, according to the figures of 1910,
who in that year were found at work
in mines and factories, Itis easy to
see what ar army of children there
will be, as the years go by, freed
from the curse of child labor.
1t is really a second emancipation
proclamation that President Wilson
put his hand and seal to when he
signed the Heating Child Labor bill.
From the point of view of human well
fare, it is perhaps the most important
act of his administration Bulletin.

Are You LOOKING Old?

Old age comes quick enough without
inviting it. Some look old at forty.
That is because they neglect the liver
and bowels. Keep your bowels regu-
lar and your liver healthy and you
will not only feel younger but look
Younger. When troubled with consti-
patton or bilioushess take Chamber
lain's Tablets. They are intended es-
pecially for these ailments and are ex-
cellent. Easy to take and most agree-
able in effect. Obtainable every

MIssOURPs NEXT GOVERNOR

In recent interview Colonel Fred
erick~ D. Gardner, Democratic candi-
fate for Governor, makes known some
of the things he specifically stands for
The practical working out of the land
bank scheme whereby thousands of
tenants will have an opportunity of
becoming owners of homes; the con-
struction of a network of good roads
throughout he State; an economical
and business-like management OF
State finances; the placing of the
greater burden Of taxation upon ac-
cumulated wealth; the complete elm
nation Of politics from the manage
ment of all State institutions; the
steadfast refusal to create jobs for
politicians; the absolute separation OF
the police departments in all cities OF
the State from politics; appointment
to office of men of known integrity and
business ability; absolute purity OF
the ballot and freedom in all cleo
tons; the rigid enforcement of the
law; favors the calling of conven-
ton to draft new State Constitu-
ton.
This clear and ringing program OF
good government will mark new era
in the progress Of this State. We
are an empire in resources and posi-
bilities, and Colonel Gardner fully
realizes the great opportunity await
ing him. +
Colonel Gardner as Governor of this
State will build up no personal politi-
cal machine. He never expects to be
a candidate for another Office. He is
high-class business man, and will
therefore serve the people Of this
State fearlessly and honestly. This
is encouraging and matter of con-
graduation. For the last decade we
have witnessed the growth of breed
of politicians in this State whose in
satiate hunger for public Office is new
err satisfied. Although sometimes
kicked out of Office, they seldom die,
and they never resign. Any sort OF
deliverance from these parasites
should be acknowledgment Argus.
This nation must not sacrifice the
arbitration principle.
The only redeeming feature of Mr..
Hughes candidacy is the strong prob
ability that he won't be elected.
Perhaps the new Danish Richdag
may ratify the treaty transferring
the Danish West Indies to the United
States. Denmark must realize that
$25 100000 is a good deal of money.

4 SPRINGFIELD RE-
PUBLICAN FOR WILSON

W, H. Seed of Springfield, an ex-
pert on the construction of good roads,
and Republican, eulogized the adj
ministration Of President Wilson in
the, course of an address to a good
roads convention few days ago.
mo, | am not a Democrat he
said. II am only a Republican who
knows a good thing when he sees it.
7 am going to vote for the reelection
of President Wilson,"
There are thousands just like Mr..
Seed in Missouri and all over the ma
ton who will cast their ballots to re-
tain a good man where he belongs.
Anything to beat Wilson--any
thing but the TRUTH" says the New
York Times, commenting on Republic
can tactics.
How needlessly explicit are the
sign boards in the dry States that bear
the words "soft drinks"-as if they
could be anything but that!

ference with the mails-in other
