cate the lines along which the commission
worked in the effort to produce practical
results that must necessarily prove benefi-
cial. The space at command does not
permit, at this time. elaborate discussion
Of details and it is sufficient to say that
the object was to establish in public affairs
the same care. intelligence and mastery
Of details that has enabled men in COM
mercial pursuits to overcome difficulties
and achieve splendid triumphs in the BUSH
ness world.
There is not one rule of economy and
business oversight and attention for the in
dividual or private corporation and another
for the State. The difficulties of the State
are in some respects more numerous and
irritating. because conflicting local interests
and invisible political influences are con-
stantly at work; but the fundamentals of
efficient management are the same in both
cases. In its essence. the budget system
is simply an established method of man
aeement of public fiscal affairs which shall
be open and aboveboard to all who have
an interest AS it is viewed by those who
have given special study to the subject.
distinct advantage will be gained by COM
pellins the Governor to prepare the budget,
because the work will give him firsthand
information of matters over which his
executive functions properly extend. and

now compels him to recommend to the
General Assembly such measures as he
deems wise and expedient in the public

requires that as to certain things he shall
furnish the details which will enable the
Assembly to act intelligently and promptly.
In this. it is submitted. there is no cause

Two weeks from yesterday. that is. on

back to another convention of the pro-
ducers. 1t is expected to be even larger
in point of numbers than was the gather
ing of yesterday.
At that time fully $50 producers attend
ed. many of them as representatives, of local
organizations for which they were empow-
cred to speak. There was a strong dis
position to take more drastic action than
that which was finally agreed upon many
wanted to serve an immediate ultimatum
on the dealers that they must have price
OF 20 cents for summer and "a cents for
winter milk, the new schedule taking effect
October I, or they would discontinue ship
ments.
This extreme proposal was abandoned
in favor of the more moderate one of in
vestigatiOn. appeal to public opinion. and
cooperation with the Government authori-
ties
There is a strong feeling that the Gov
eminent will ultimately be induced to step
in and make, in Washington, demonstra-
ton Of the possibilities of scientific. non
highly developed system of
milk gathering and distribution.
This would be of great benefit to the
whole country, an object lesson of the ut
most value, in the view of men who con-
slider that milk crisis impends, not only
here, but at nearly every large city.

HELPS In THE SEWING ROOM
Small Hints That Will Be Appreciated
by Matron Who Has Work to
Do at Home.

A plain, broad hem is always an eff
fective finish to a tea or tray cloth. 1t
will stand repeated launderings, and is
far better than using a cheap lace or
badly worked crochet edging.
Any piece of fancy work will show
to the best advantage if care is taken
in matching Innings, ribbons or cords
used in the making up. Do not be con.

right.
Have you tried coffee grounds as a
filling for pincushions? They should
of course, be well dried and packed
very tightly into the case Needles
and pins kept in such cushion will
not rust.
The old-fashioned emery cushion is
a most useful possession to the needle.
woman, especially when working in
hot weather. Passing needle through
an emery cushion two or three times
polishes it, and makes it pass through
materials smoothly.
Crocheted laces and edgings will set
better if they are shrunk before being
sewn to the article to be trimmed.

Fountains in France,

Who is responsible for the dry foun-
tain? asks the London Chronicle. A
correspondent cites case from
Groombridge, in Sussex. Just before
you enter that picturesque town you
see a fountain, with a seat, horse.
trough and even a dogs drinking
place. Alas! never once, on several
visits, could l get a draft of water
from it, though the drinking cup re-
manned to testify to it's one-time
beneficence to thirsty wayfarers.
They do these things so much better
in France. You will find few French
villages without a public fountain, a
fountain, moreover, that is often a
work of art. What English villages do
you recall where a free draft of
water is available? Should you desire
such, you must summon up enough
courage to ask at a cottage door, to be
COMPOUNDED, probably, with that nui-
sance of rural life, the tramp. Exter-
nalIy, we English take water literally
enough; internally, we seem agreed to
boycott it.

Monumental japanese Lexicon

1t has long been regretted that
Japan was without a great exhaustive
dictionary, but that want is about to
be supplied. At a dinner in Tokyo on
October 10 it was announced that after
fifteen years Of assiduous work by
Professor Matsui of the Tokyo High
er Normal school the new Japanese
Lexicon" in four volumes is ready for
publication. The first colume had al
ready passed the last proof reading,
while the other three volumes will be
issued after next year at the rate Of
volume a year. The company was
highly distinguished, comprising many
members of the cabinet and $50 schol-
ars and educators. Minister of Edu-
cation Takata paid a glowing tribute
to the two indefatigable compilers.
Marquis Okuma, the premier, in his
address, recounted that the first die
tionary compiled in the Orient was
that completed in the reign of the
Chinese Emperor Shin; it's vocabulary,
however, containing only 1900 words.
The Kanghsi Lexicon, an authorita-
tive Chinese dictionary, was compiled
in the early stages of the Ching dynas-
ty and comprised some 10000 words.
The new Japanese dictionary by Pro-
fessors Uyeda and Matsui is exhaus-
tive, treating 100000 words. It's manu-
scripts make a pile 140 feet high. The
perseverance and energy of the pro-
fessors are entitled to the highest
praise, concluded the premier.-East

DESIRABLE HOUSE PLANTS
BY ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYSEN.

Asparagus plumosus is one of the
most beautiful pot plants. The dark
green leaves are lacelike and fine for
cutting.
Asparagus sprengeri is for vases,
hanging baskets and brackets. The
branches droop gracefully in long,
delicate lacelike sprays and are occa-
sionally covered with delicate sweet
scented white blossoms which are sue
ceeded by scarlet berries.
If you have not provided yourself
with hanging basket they can be had
already arranged from the florist
There is nothing lovelier Oxalis bulbs
make pretty plants and for best eff
forts should have been bedded some
time ago.
One of the best palms and the quick
est growing is the Washington filifera
The seeds will terminate as readily
as corn, and the plant will stand dust,
dry air, lack of sunshine and general
neglect, growing right along in any
situation and with any treatment that
will keep geranium alive.
1t is compact grower, well adapted
to the living room and always orna-
mental everywhere.
Another choice palm is the Areca
lutescens. Another still as desirable
is the Kentia fosteriana. Palms are
like one Of the family when well cared
for. They are always beautiful, al
ways useful.

War Relics for Australia,

An interesting set of war relics is
being collected in Australia. The lat
est addition to list that already in
cludes guns and fittings from the EN-
den is one of the PORTIONS used by
the Turks in the endeavor to cross
the Suez canal in their operations
against Egypt. The Turkish force jour
neyed through the desert from Jeru-
salem to Kantara. A large number of
steel pontoons were carried and
dragged with the force to transport it
across the Suez canal. Part of the
force arrived at the canal and was al
lowed to approach close to the canal
When the Turks were in the act Of
launching the pontoons they were met
with a heavy fire that drove them
back. None of them crossed the canal,
except as prisoners. The pontoon will
probably be placed on exhibition in
the capital cities Of some Of the states.
