ABUNDANCE OF FRESH FACTS.
First Aid to Happiness and Prosperity
in the New Year.

Among first aids to a happy and
prosperous New Year there is always
The World Almanac. This standard
reference book, fresh from the presses
and bearing the date 1915, Is now
available to purchasers A peep into
the book shows that it comes to the
public bringing, according to its an
nual custom, not only the election re-
turns crop reports, business figures
sporting records and other statements
and statistics covering the transac-
lions of the year just passed. but the
abundance of fresh facts and features
necessary to keeping up with a world
that moves.
The great war in Europe receives
attention in summary of events and
a chronological table. At another ex-
treme of public interest, the develop
ment of the motion picture business is
considered. There are two pages
about woman suffrage achievements
and the recent vote. The substance is
given of the constitution rejected at
the New York polls last Novem ber
subjects of special attention are these:
Widowed mothers pensions; po-
| litical platforms; congressional COM
mittees; state legislation in the United
States; peace movements; the Lincoln
| highway from New York to San Fran
/ cisco and the Dixie highway from the
lakes to to the gulf: war relief so
cieties; armed strength of the world
manufacture of munitions and explo-
sives; 1915 state census; diplomats
dismissed from the United States; ma
/ tional reading circle; public, society
and school libraries in the United
| States; workmen's compensation laws
Gary school system; health laws in
New York city; the automobile indus
try; naval advisory board; public
school system in New York city; I'M
employed in New York city.
AS to things not to be found in this
Almanac, it seems almost likely that
there are not any such things. Any
way, one must go out of his way to
discover them.

Columbia, Mo, Jan. 7.-Opportuni-

not in the production of fancy birds,

fed grain at market prices, but rather
in the production of birds raised large

of poultry husbandry at the Kansas

an address at the College of Agricul-

that they serve to eQualize prices.

are saying now they are open to con-
Viction.
Especially is this true among con-
sentative Democrats who have learn
ed that President Wilson is prepared
to make as aggressive fight as may
be necessary.
But long fight looms ahead, with
presidential aspirations, sectional
and racial feeling, senatorial tradi-
tons and party politics involved. 1t
is practically certain hearings will be
ordered by senate judiciary commit
tee, which meets Monday. If charges
of personal unfitness can not be
proved against Brandeis. Senator
Weeks, preSldentlal canoluate, cdn DC
expected to make a fight on ground
that Brandeis is personally offensive
to him.
This fight President Wilson will
court. By forcing on senate con-
firmation or rejection of Brandeis,
President Wilson will compel that
body to test senatorial courtesy in
full view of the public.
Presidential politics will figure
from first. Strongly for confrma-
