WOMEN AS GARDENERS
AND FARMERS

A convention has just been helt
at Boston of the Women's Nationa
Agricultural and Horticultural Asso
citation. The showing of successes
made at this meeting may interest
some women who are disheartenet
by low salaries and preference given
men for identical work. Going into
business for themselves is always the
recourse open to people who are not
paid the actual value Of their prod
uct. Women's cabbages and beans
will never be Disseminated against
on account of the sex of the pro-
Queer.
The seed catalogs make the rails
ing of fancy corn and beans seem a
very easy task. According to the
magazine articles with the pretty
half tone cuts, it is all poetic work.
In actual life it Is OF course labor
ious and dirty though It is clean
dirt. Few people are brainy enough
to make a living from the soil by
standing around and telling others
what to do. At least not without
long experience. At the start they
must be pace makers for stupid and
lndolent men, which means using the
spade and hoe for themselves.
1t is general rule that physical
capacity comes with the use of the
muscles. A woman at work in the
fields, according to old ideas. has
seemed to be performing a coarse
and hard task belonging rather to
men. Yet women can dance as long
as men, and hosts of them play their
five sets of tennis and eighteen holes
OF golf.
Market gardening seems usually
more practical for women than farm
ing as less capital is required for a
start. They can begin with some
specially on an acre, which will do
to try out their first experiments and
failures. The first year they should
more than pay expenses, which Is
rarely the case in new occupation
The education may cost them no
thing. A short course in some agri'
cultural college would be best. But
IL that can't be had, the government
and state experiment stations and
schools and bulletins offer no end OF
expert advice free. 1t is field In
which there is an unlimited demand
for the product at high prices.

MEMORIAL DAY
CROWDS

The fact that the crowds on Mem
orial Day are found at the ball game
aud on the motor roads instead oil
at the proper exercises is the source
OF regret to all who are interested
in this national recognition of men
who gave up their lives in soldiery
duty. Yet when one considers the
pace at which modern life goes, It
is not surprising that people on a
holiday turn to physical relaxation,
rather than to the performance of
duties no matter how sacred.
The business man. fretted by the
strain Of daily labor. needs the open
air and the relaxation of sports. Fac
tory life is speedcd up today. and
the fresh air and competitive thrills
Of a bal game are life giving ton.
ic to the weary mechanic.
All who can ought to attend patri-
otto exercises wherever they are held
and are rewarded for their effort by
the gratitude Of the surviving rem
nant Of veterans. Still one should
not be too pessimistic because these
exercises are not given to crowded
houses The American people are
workers and the days when the shop
closes are their days for play.

I'M EMIGRATION
AND JAPAN

Japanese indignation over the ex'
clusion features OF the immigration
bill would seem inordinate II we over
looked its diplomatic qualities. The
Japanese know very we'll that 1t Is
not because we regard them as an
inferior race that we wish to ex'
clude them.
Quite the contrary. We regard
them as Representatives OF culture
so old and so highly developed that
the chance Of their exchanging 1t for
ours Is too remote for consideration,
They are not assimilable, and 1t Is
condition of our harmonious and
fruitful national development that
we should admit TO our agricultural
and Industrial population only ele'
ments that will easily blend.
The trading and professional mid
die class may be cosmopolitan with
out disadvantage to the state, so
long as the broader strata OF the
population are nationalized These
represent the solid and permanent
part OF the nation. The Japanese
themselves would not tolerate the
planting on their soil of permanent
ly alien colonies.
Why, then this show OF wounded
national honor? So long as the mat
ter of immigration is regulated by
gentlemen's agreements, periodically
renewable, the Japanese have lever
for exacting concessions with regard
to other matters-trade policy In
China for example. An unsettled
immigration question is part OF the
capital OF Japanese diplomacy. And

most astute in the world, will not

WHY COMM ERCiAl
EDUCATION Is POOR

A newspaper devoted to the inter
ests Of commercial schools discusses
the question why business men are
continually complaining about their
inaccurate and unintelligent stenog'
raphers and bookkeepers. 1t finds
fault with the tendency to overcrowd
the commercial schools with pupils
secured by solicitors.
Such agents are often paid 30 to
so per cent of tuition fees of pupils
secured. The result Is that they per-
suade parents to take girls out OF
the public schools at an immature
age. An impression prevails with
many people that anyone can do
commercial work. This is far from
being the case.
Few young people can give intelli'
gent service in business office
unless they have had high school
education. II takes brains and ex-
perience and some maturity OF
thought before one can master the
details of business system. The
manager does not wish to spend his
entire time explaining his methods.
After he gives an order. he expects
/, to be grasped and followed.
There are many girls in offices
who can't seem to comprehend an
idea merely by having 1t stated to
them. They must be pulled through
certain processes until they acquire
the correct form by habit and doing
a thing over and over. They have
little power OF attention, and are
constantly making wrong entries.
This is costly of time. and 1t gives
the impression that business house
is unsystematic and irregular.
In many places the public schools
maintain commercial departments.
They are apt to be hampered by in
sufficient appropriations for teach
ing force and their graduates on the
whole are not equal to those of pri-
yate business schools. Business
men demand a higher grade of stem
ographic and accounting work and
usually they are willing to pay for
efficiency when they find It..

CHILD LABOR

When the daughter OF Sir Robert
Peel was stricken with typhus, the
infection was traced to a stylish rio
ing habit ordered and fitted at cor
rect Regent street shop, but finished
In the tenement of a starving tailor
with two children i'll of the fever.
Ninetenths OF the clothing eman-
ating from New York city is made
wholly or partly in sweat shops that
frequently are radiating centers for
disease germs.
The fact does not concern New
York alone, for New York Is the
source of clothing supply for the
whole country.
The danger OF general disease in.
lection would be startling but for the
fact that we have got used to the
condition, just as we have got used
to many other horrible conditions
that ought to startle us but don't.
Anyway there is decided cause for
worry. There Is disease more In.
fectious and more deadly than fever
coming from the sweat shop, where
the blood and bones of some are
starved that the rest OF us may glut-
ton, and this is the social disease
called poverty, crime, anarchy, In.
sanity, or what you will-under any
name. 1t comes from the same germ.
The little child that is forced to
strain its eyes, to bruise its little
hands and to scar its tender heart
over interminable sewing that the
grasping employer may get little
more profit and that the fine lady
may get ner cloak little cheaper is
breeding a disease germ more deadly
than that of any fever which mere
ly kills.
What the child forced into labor
earns is taken from him, but by and
by he may discover that what he
steals and keeps to himself is his to
enjoy. There the foundation Of
life of crime is laid broad and deep.
Forcing the child to labor without
reward molds his impressionable
mind to the idea that all labor is a
cruel curse put upon the poor by the
rich. There the seed of anarchy is
planted.
Well. what is there to be done
about 1t?
Why. we can at the very least
think about 1t.

PRESIDENTIAL
POINTERS

Inauguration day was fixed upon
the 4th Of March because that date
seldom occurred on Sunday. But
three times during our history has
the inauguration day fallen on Sun
day. The first was the second in
augural of Monroe, March 4, 1921;
the second was when Taylor was
made president, March 4, 1s49; the
third was the inauguration of Hayes
on March 4, 1877.
This will happen three times dur
ing each century or one year after
every seven leap years. Except when
passing from one century to another
there is slight variation as will be
observed in the following dates Of
the past and future inaugurations of
the first two centuries of the repub.

A WORD WITH
THE GRADUATES

This ia the time of the year when
much advice is being offered to the
graduates. The young people are
cautioned not to gain a rich conceit
or cease to study and that is good
advice, but the most important les
son they must learn is self mastery
which will impel them to so discip-
line themselves that they will never
shirk a responsibility.
Nearly all men and women who
have succeeded will tell you that UNI
firing work won them their reward.
Genius, they will inform you, is de-
votion to task.
Now, work when rightly approach
ed and accepted, is not irksome. The
boy or girl suddenly called in from
the care free life of school days may
feel the restraint and long for the
freedom OF out of doors, but gradu'
ally employment will prove pleasing,
If the mind and heart are not rebel.
lious-if the love of seryiceable
life Is cultivated.
The great majority OF parents
make the mistake of neglecting to
train their children TO work, while
the youngsters arc still in the lower
grades. The boy who runs wild
until he graduates is like the untam
ed cayuse of the range. He must be
labored with before he can be made
TO serve a usful purpose.
The hardest kind OF work is to at
tempt to evade work, and no one
has ever reached worthy ambition
by rejecting honest effort.
Our idea of hard, discomforting
endless work Is the life Of a tramp
and man becomes a vagabond ant
tramp by early in life dreading tht
thought of doing his full share "
making existence worth while .-og

KANGAROO COURT
 VERY POPULAR IN PHOENIX BASTILE
Chief Of Police Of Capital City Says Kangaroo Court Is Best Means Of Keeping Order Among Prisoners

Following a trip to Tucson during which he studied the workings and rules of the Kangaroo court in the county jail, Chief of Police George Brisbois, of Phoenix, has given per mission 0 the prisoners in the city jail at the capital to establish sim liar court in that institution. The Kangaroo court has been found one of the most effective ways of dealing with prisoners inside the jail-or rather allowing prisoners inside the jail to deal with themselves. The court is presided over by a judge elected by the prisoners themselves. Rules are posted concerning the san itation of the institution and the con duct of the prisoners while confined, and it is the duty of the prisoners to see that they are enforced.
 Some of the prohibitions posted in the Phoenix jail are as follows:
 Prohibitions.
 CD Breaking into jail without per mission of inmates.
 (2) Throwing rubbish on the floor. (3) Splitting on the floor.
 (4) Unnecessary noise after 10 p. m. (5) Fighting
 (6) Cursing.
 CD Failure to take a bath within ? hours after being confined to jail unless sick or too drunk
 (S) Failure to keep clothes and other property together on your bed. (9) Failure towash clothes at least once week.
 10) Failure to wash coffee cup and spoon after each meal.
 CID Failure to keep away from door when another is talking to visitor
 CPD Failure to leave toilet and bath tub in sanitary condition.
 Q3) Failure to stop any noise when bothering others upstairs. (a) Anyone ordering anything the windows without first obtaining permission from the office will be denied same when brought in. (b) Any violation of -any of the foregoing rules will be punishable by a fire of not less than 25c and not more than s1.00, payable either in money of such labor as designated by the judge. Co Any request for supplies for the jail should be made to the jailor.
