The Home Budget

During the last month housewives here
about have had good deal said to them about
conducting home finances on the budget plan. 1t
is said to make for economy because it directs at
tention to home finances in the bulk and because
thinking about home finances encourages close
buying. The housewife is appealed to because
as rule she spends the money. But home fl
nances are as much the husbands concern as the
wife's Indeed in many cases the husband takes
upon himself the business side of the home. He
should be as much interested in the budget plan
as the wife, at least to the extent of lending his
sympathy and encouragement.
One reason why the budget system was not
long ago adopted as necessary feature of house,
keeping is that it involves bookkeeping. The
average wife, with house to keep in order and
two three children to care for, has no time for
frills of this kind. She knows that there is linn
it beyond which she can not go. She knows her
husbands salary, how much must go for rent, for
light, heat water, taxes ETC., and how much she
can spend for food. Her bookkeeping is done not,
as the budget system demands, in the home, but
in the office of the water company, the light

asked how much she actually spent during the
last year for food, she may, in some cases, be
able to produce stack of paid grocery bills and
an estimate Of what she. spent elsewhere. VI
actual figures she knows nothing.
These lax business methods are based on the
philosophy which is best expressed in the phrase:
ooh, we'll we seem to get along somehow. Most
families 60 get along somehow. No business man
of any st7nding gets along somehow" He
knows He insists that his accounting depart
ment !: count for every cent. But his wife runs
their Tome on the "get-along- somehow" principle
that would land his business in the bankruptcy
court. This is the thing the budget advocates
object to- They have chosen good time to bring
the subject up, for the price of living has turned
the attention of every one to grocery bills.
They must, however, realize that putting the
home on business basis is radical departure
from custom, and that budget can be devised
and administered only by mind acquainted with
the rudiments of business accounting, and that
this knowledge is not at present readily avail

some people are loath to admit that
tobacco and liquor can be the root
of the evil. No, some one is slipping

that are ordered. II you will notice,

onding a demand that the Is counties
of northern Michigan secede from the
remainder of the state and set up a
new government-the state Of "Su-
perior."
Imperial Valley press., 1916-01-18

They've threatened to do this for
years-wheneve the taxes have been
unusually heavy-but it remained for
Roger M. Andrews of Menom;nee to
give the movement official impetus.
Andrews got UP before the annual
banquet of the Calumet chamber Of
commerce and asserted northern Mich
igan had been ruled long enough by
the larger but less wealthy lower half.
The upper peninsula, he said, should
rise in its might and throw off the
southern yoke, set up its own capital
at Marquette or in Calumet and pre-
pare to enter the Union as the forty
ninth state.
This is the fourth similar agitation
now rife in the West and Northwest.
/, Spokane started it with a sentiment
for the establishment of new state
to be called "Lincoln," out of eastern
Washington, northeastern Oregon and
northern Idaho.
Six or seven years ago the mineral
kings of Duluth and Minnesota's iron
ranges rebelled from the farmer rule
of rural Minnesota and tried to form
new state, "Koochiching," out of
the mineral-productio sections of that
commonwealth. "kocchiching's griev-
ance is similar to that of Superior,
the complaint that while few coun-
ties pay the most taxes, the older part
of the state gets the most benefits.
Three years back an agitation for
new state was started in eastern
Utah, and was taken up by the cham
Der Of commerce in Grand Junction,
Colo. This proposed state, to which
Coloradoans gave the name "Uncom-
paghre," is to embrace that portion
of the two states between Tennessee
and Marshall passes, the crest of the
Rocky mountains, and the Wasatch
range in eastern Utah
Roger NJ. Andrews, official sponsor
of the Superior movement, is a
prominent upper peninsula political
figure, and publisher of the Menomi-
nee Herald-Leader.
The big copper, iron and lumber in
terests are said to be secretly behind
this propaganda-a least to. the point
: Of giving it every chance to grow in
the mining and industrial towns,
which they rule absolutely. This COM
bination Of political and commercial
sponsorship makes many believe the
movement has more than fighting
chance for SUCCESS.

up his old friends fight against spe-
cial privilege.
The break came early in the Taft
administration. 1t came, in fact, right
after Taft's first important political
decisions, the appointment Of his cab
met, the outlining of his legislative
program, etc. These actions showed
early the road Taft had decided to
travel, and it was in consequences Of
these early performances Of Taft that
Roosevelt resumed his political activ-
ity.
The writer was close to these events
and speaks from absolute knowledge
when he says that Taft would have
had Roosevelt's support during his
first term and his help in securing a
second term if he had made any kind
of an effort to carry out the Roose-
