COLONY HOUSES FOR WINTER
More Convenient Than Large Building
II Hens Can Run at Large Con-
siderable Part Of Time.

In ordinary seasons hens can run
at large during a considerable part OF
the winter. In this case the colony
house is much more convenient than
the large permanent house. The build
tngs are moved to a spot somewhat
sheltered and banked with meadow
hay, straw or coarse horse manure.
When this is done the hens are just
as comfortable as il the big house, in
fact, we believe more comfortable in
most cases. II the little buildings
have been properly built they are
warm enough

BUILT up INDUSTRY
Results of Protective Tariff or
TinpIate.
Has Made the United States an Ex
porter Instead Of an Importer. ana
Lowered the Price to the
Consumer.

No protectioniStS who ever sought
tuty upon an infant industry were
ever accused more roundly by the free
raiders than the advocates of protec-
i've tariff on tinplate. When the pro
.ective duty for tinplate was finally es-
tablished in 1891, the total production
IN this country was 100000 pounds.
Nearly all the tinplate used here was
imported. The revenue tariff advocates
said that the protective duty would moi
build up tinplate industry. but would
merely have the effect Of increasing
the cost of tinplate.
Yet, as result of the protective tar
if, the quantity of tinplate produced
in the United States now exceeds
2,OOO,0OO,OOO pounds per nnnum. OF
about five hundred times as much as
before the protective duty was estao
lished. The industry has been CON
stantly growing. In 1904 production
had reached 1867. 100000 pounds, and
since then it has been nearly doubled
Not only was the price lowered, bu'
the industry has grown to the POM
where the United States is at last De
coming an exporter of tinplate. Ihe
Dutch East Indies and the Malayar
peninsula formerly exported vast guam
titles of tin, but there was exported
in September from the port OF New
York alone 2.25O,OOO pounds In tin
plate to the Dutch East Indies; 2,OOO.
600 pounds to British India more thar
100000 pounds to Australia; more
than 10000 pounds to New Zealand
and large quantities to China, tht
Philippines, Siam and French lndo
China. In the fiscal year which ended
last June the export of tinplate to the
section of ,he world from which tht
tin Is drawn amounted to about 2OO,
600, 900 pounds, the tin having Travelled
1900 miles from the mines in the ORR
ent to the factory here, and the tin
plate another 1900 miles in return
The slightest consideration OF thu
amount of work and wages given to la
Dor as result of the protection of THU
industry will show the way protec
tive tariff operates.

Look at some of the gowns in de-

or and weave, and the entire bodice
across the back and extending over the

precious gems and touches of espe-
cially dyed floss.
Gorgeous Gown for Actress.
Bulloz made a gown for Miss Elsie
Ferguson, which is a museum piece.
It's cost was reckoned anywhere over
$3.50. Miss Ferguson wore this on the
opening night of her new play.
1t is Il straight, medieval gown Of
net, which is so entirely covered with
gold bullion threads that not particle
of the net is visible. The lower petit
coat is of a specially woven piece Of
solid gold lace, and the swinging,
medieval drapery from the shoulders
at the back that extends over the
arms to the wrists and Is caught at
the hips and trails to the ground, is
of black lace heavily embroidered in
gold threads in an ecclesiastical de-
sign of the fourteenth ce ltury. 1t is
commonly supposed to be the longest
piece of uncut lace drapefy ever used
in the making of clothes.
Take another gown made by Bulloz
for Mary Garden. This is called
Griselids and she will wear it when
she sings the title role of the opera
of that name. 1t is medieval frock
of pearl gray satin which has a long
tunic dropped over chemise of gray
chiffon. The bodice is entirely en-
broidered in jewels and held by gold
and silver threads

LIVELY FIGHT PROMISED.

Washington will see lively fight
the first week in May. The Conser-
vation Congress, which is trying to
mobilize the countrys resources, will
be in session then. How to take nj
trogen from the air by means of wa
ter-power and make cheaper fertil-
izer for farmers and nitrates for eX-
plosives, is one of the big questions
to be discussed. Clifford Pinchot,
winner of the famous Ballinger-Pin-
chot controversy, of few years ago,
will be on one side and lot of big
men, who are trying to get some
thing started in water-power devel-
opment, will be on the other.
The last time this question came
up in the Conservation Congress at
Washington, Senators, Governors,
scientists and other headliners nearly
came to blows. The conservationists
have engaged Col. John l. Martin, of
st. Louis, who for twenty years has
been sergeant-at-arms of the turbu-
lent national Democratic conventions,
to enforce order at the Forthcoming

THE VANISHING ISSUE.

There is no use throwing it up to
the Democrats that they found a
Tariff Board when they took possess
sion, and promptly tossed it into the
waste basket instead of strengthen
ing and improving it. Probably they
know now that the country wants
a real Tariff Commission; that
the political disadvantages of the old
system outweigh it advantages; that,
unless all sings fail, the country is
going to face a world-trade competi-
tion which will make intelligent
handling of the tariff imperative il
the facing is to be done successfully
We believe seven voters out of ten
are sick of fake tariff for politics and
want a tariff for business.
The Democratic bill proposes a
commission of six members, not over
half being of one political party, each
to draw ten thousand dollars year
salary and to hold Office for twelve
years-except the chairman and vice
chairman-witha regular annual ap-
preparation of three hundred thous-
and dollars. 1t proposes, in short, to
set up a permanent branch of the
Government.
The Republicans will continue the
commission when their turn comes.
In time it will take the tariff largely
out of politics; in fact, the tariff is
already taking itself out of politics.

INITIATING RURAL CREDIT.

There is a determined move to has
ten the initiation of rural credit
law. The sooner we have such law,
if wisely enacted, the better. The de-
STABILITY of the law itself is hardly
in dispute; but we might easily be
made to realize that poor law would
be worse than no law at all Hence
the initiation of the measure should
be undertaken with caution and cir
cumspction.
With respect to this first step there
is the caution of good counsel that it
is an easy matter to overload the en-
abling act. For the establishment of
any state system of rural credit that
would be worth the while we must
have constitutional amendment. We
cannot otherwise make the state s
credit available for the purpose. Il
| is therefore necessary that the meas
ure be submitted to the popular vote,
and for obvious reasons, as safe
guarding or insuring the purpose of
the law, it is altogether desirable. But
! the enabling act should omit all un-
necessary detail. 1t should leave the
law in flexible condition as to the
rounding out of its provisions. The
enabling act should be so drawn that
amendment may be readily effected,
if experience shall teach us that
amendment is desirable. In other
words, aside from it's fundamentals,
the law should be so drawn for in
itiation that the legislature can
amend to suit the need. Otherwise
we might find to our cost that the law
would be unwieldly and unsatisfac-
tory.
I The essentials of the initiative or
the enabling act are:
Authority to issue state bonds, to
use the states credit for the pur-
pose of procuring funds for rural
credit purposes;
The designation of constitutional
administrative body, which the pres
ent state land board is not, to insure
the continued and effective operation
of the law;
Declaration Of the purposes for
which the proceeds of the state bonds
would be available, and Of the class
of persons to whom the money would
be loaned to the prevention of its mis-
use in land speculation;
Provision fixing the terms of pay
ment by the borrower, which would
embody the amortization feature;
Designation of the character of Sc
curity upon which rural credit money
should be loaned and the ratio of loan
to security, with limitation as to the
amount to be loaned per acre;
Provision that rural credit earn
ings, If any, should not be diverted
to existing state funds, nor so used
as to create discriminating tax upon
the farmers who should borrow the
money and pay it back with interest.
All these provisions are fundamen-
tai, but aside from them are others
necessary to furnish the machinery
OF administration. These latter are
details that should be left to the leg
islature.
The matter herein suggested may
be incorporated in an enabling act
that will not cover one entire page of
legal cap. They may be so incorpor-
ated as to present brief, simple and
effective law, that the voter can read
