GOING TO RENO FOR THE
 RATJOT

About six months ago Mrs. Harriet Stanton Blatch, the prominent woman suffragette, announced her intention to vote for president-in November and that, as she could hot do this in her home state of New York, she would go to Kansas where half a years resi- dence would secure state citizenship and the right of suffrage. Whether she did this, ,or found the sacrifice too great, is not stated, but the same Mrs. Blatch "of New Nork" is now said to be'calling upon her suffragette sisters to find their hearts desire, not in Kansas, but in Nevada and it's notori- ous Reno. "The gates of the Nevada City," she,is quoted. "once open to the women who would be free from their husbands, will be flung wide open again to the women who seek thevote. Suffragists will migrate to Reno to acquire legal residence and be ready to march to the ballot-box in Novem- ber."
 d, Presumably Nevada is now pre- ferred to Kansas because the time is short and citizenship can be acquired more promptly. To Reno's record as a smasher of matrimonial shackles it is proposed to add preeminance in the business of conferring political free dom upon voteless women. How manly mothers of families or bachelor maids will heed the hurry call, pack their grips and hasten to city of freedom remains to be seen, but it is pretty safe to conclude that the migration will not be of vast proportions, owing to the many difficulties, including ob- jection at home board bills in the land of promise, and the fact that in most cases the purse-strings are in the hands of male persons devoid of en- thusiasm. Such obstacles will tend to prement a general rush, and many, even of those quite free to go may, after reflection, conclude that such a price for a vote is too high, as Mrs. Blatch herself appears to have done.

MARVELLOUS VOICE TYPEWRITER.

Conceive an ordinary machine re- sembling the machines in common office use-full of the customary cog wheels and crooked levers and varie- gated springs. It might be an adding machine so far as one can judge by external appearances or dictaphone or a new-fangled cash register. But
 -. Seak to it,
 It becomes alive. It hears you. lt vibrates with action. Somewhere in side typewriter bars go "clickety- click click" At the top of the ma chine 8 sheet of paper unwinds from a roller.
 The machine has written down what you have spokenl
 If you said "cat it wrote down "cat.' If you said Dear Sir: Youl favor of recent date received ano
 -" as though you were starting out an ordinary, time-worn business let ter, it wrote that same thing down.
 This is the machine a Brooklyn in ventor named John B. Flowers IS i'm proving and which is described in the July Popular Science Monthly. So fal he has succeeded only in getting the various parts to operate-in itself nc mean achievement.
 It embodies some principles, notably that of the seleniun cell and accom- panying vibrating mirror mechanisms which will be used in the ultimate speech-recording machine itself Bu in this latter case of the typewriter, whole collection of selenipm cells vii be uecessa-y-one for each key or th nSchiae.

 London, June 10.-The new Lord Kitchener, elder brother and heir of the late secretary of war, who. was Col, H. E. c. Kitchener, is reported on his way home from Southwest Africa, where he has been serving in the campaign against the Germans.
 Although 62 years old, the new earl. who was born October 5, 1846, placed himself at the disposal of the govern ment at the outbreak of the war, and began active duty at once.

TYPHOID VACCINE
 IS EFFICACIOUS

 Correspondence of the Associated Press )
 Warsaw, June 2.-At the German congress of International Medicine, which has just been in session here, Surgeon General Huenermann report ed that in the worst typhoid month December, 1914), since the war be gan the number of typhoid cases in the German army was only one-four- month of the Franco-Prussian war, when the total number. of German troops in the field was far smaller than now. The use of the Pfeiffer- Kolle anti-typhoid vaccine which is now in general use, has, he said, been given in millions of instances without any serious consequence, and it was due to this vaccine that such won- derful production of typhoid cases have been brought about.

FU bLlO1l TOR lHE SOON1 .
 A publicity agent for the county has been suggested in some circles where belief in "letting the people know is rampant. The idea is not as new as it sounds because at least sections of counties along the Pacific coast have combined to employ a publicity agent whose business it is to send literature to prospective settlers throughout the nation. Of course, this applies the idea to unsettled sections and wouldn't be so necessary in sections where the population is considered near or at the maximum.
 This is no effort to suggest one for Jefferson county. It is merely a chronicle of what is being done and discussed along that line. If Jeffer- son county is a good place in which to live, nothing should be left undone to prove it to those who are looking for such place. Yet a straight out-and- out publicity agent looks rather ad- vanced and radical"
 Such an official should not be con fused with a county agent of which there are now hundreds in the United States. The county agent confines his work for the benefit of residents in the county to the uttermost corners of the land.

When breakage of jars occurs it is due to such causes as 1) Overpacking jars. Corn, pump kin, peas, lima beans and sweet po- tatoes swell or expand in processing. Do not fill the jars quite full of these products.
 (2) Placing cold jars in hot water, or vice versa. As soon as the jars are filled with hot sirup or hot wa ter, place immediately in the canner.
 (3) If top cracks during sterilza- tion the wire bail was too tight
 (4) Tn steam canner. having too much water in the canner. Water should not come above the platform.
 (5) Allowing cold draft to strike the jars when they are removed from the canner.
 (6) Having wire bail too tight, thus breaking the jars or glass tops when lever is forced down.-Office of Exten- sion Work. North and West, States Relations Service.

sound-wave shapes and overtones, MT. Flowers devised his phonoscribe, which is interesting mainly as fore runner of the actual voice-operated typewriter.
 Unlike most projected inventions of the kind, this machine was not con ceived as an ideal dream. It is based upon sound technical reasoning and researches as we'll as on expermienta- ton, back of which were the resources of great typewriter company.
 Unfortunately, the machine doesn't think, however much it may appear to approach that desirable attribute. One reason is that at present the machine is brainless. But, even if it had a brain, that organ would be of no use in controlling parts completely sep arated.
 An odd feature about the machine is that it spells words as they sound and not according to some fat diction- ary. Indeed it would have to be a phonetic speller. How else could it distinguish "dough" and tough?
 It opens up q wide vista for the imagination. Think what it means for the office of the future to have an al- most human machine at hand to per form the routine drudgery of type writing and letter writing.

AUGUSTA IN SAME BOAT
New Kansas Field Like HeaIdton, Not
GETTING Full Oil Runs.

Augusta, Kan, July 3.-It is persist
emily rumored here that the Prairie
Pipe Line Company has received no
tice from the Prairie Oil & Gas com
pany that as the latter can care for
only $4,000 barrels of crude oil daily
from this field, the runs will have to
be reduced to that figure.
Heretofore the Prairie has been run
ming $1,000 barrels of oil through lines
daily and daily storing from $1,000 to
10000 barrels additional, but the new
order means that only about half of
the fields production will be cared for.
The new order is significant and
can point only to the one thing: too
much oil. With Kansas and Oklahoma
producing over 100000 barrels of oil
daily, unless there should be a de-
cided increase in the demand, proba-
bility, or a decline in the production,
which is hardly possible, further cur
tailment will follow. Unless something
is done to curtail the production there
will soon be more oil produced than
the pipe lines can care for.
