Of 8 or 10 inches and filed In with

CONSUMPTION OF LIQUOR.

The internal revenue department Of
the United States has made public fig
ures from its 1915 report which def
nitely and conciusively dispose of one
Of the stock arguments of the liquor
interests, namely, that prohibition does
not prohibit and that with the growth
Of dry territory the consumption of
liquor increases. Notwithstanding in
dications on every hand to the con-
trary, journals of the liquor trade,
anti-prohibition platform orators and
writers Of liquor publicity articles in
the general press reiterate the state
ment that legislation has not had, and
never will shave. any effect upon the
amount OF liquor consumed. The statfs-
tics given out by the internal revenue
department, to the effect that the In
ternal revenue tax on spirituous
liquors Is decreasing at the rate Of $1.-
250,OOO every month. most effectively
dispose of these falsif1cations.

CHAPTER VII.
Romance Comes.

Sometimes, Methodists, or Presbyte-
rfans, or heretics-whatever we may
be-we are irreslstibly impelled to the
conclusion that things were simply
bound to happenl However slight the
cause-still that cause was predestlned
from the beginning of time. A girl
may by the sheerest accident step
from the street car block ahead of
her destination-an irritating accident.
But as she walks that block she may
meet an old-time friend, and a stranger.
And that strnnger--ah, you can never
convince the girl, that her stepping
from the car too soon was not ordered
when the foundations Of the world
were laid
After all, 1t was very simple. Across
the street from the parsonage lived q
girl named Mattie Moore--a common,
nnlovely, unexcitlng girl, who taught
; country school fivs miles out from

FARMERS KEEP BOOKS
Ascertain Various Sources From
Which They Derive Income.
Many Men Who Have Been Induced to
AnaIyze Their Business by Use
Of Farmers Bulletin Are Now
Keeping Records.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agricuiture.)
By the use of blanks in Farmers
Bulletin 661 an increasing number Of
farmers are analyzing their businesses
in such way as to ascertain the varf-
Gus sources from which they derive
their income, the ways In which they
spend their money, the total income
from the farm. and the amount which
should be charged Off for interest on
investment. In this way many Of
these farmers are for the first time
making use OF practical bookkeeping
methods.
County agents also nre making much
use of this bulletin In their work.
They take it to The farmer, sit down
with him, and work out with him a
complete analysis of his business, 50
that he is able to see exactly In what
respects he is losing money and IN
what respects he is making 1t. Fur
thermore, these blanks are frequently
used when farmers write to the de-
partment for advice and assistance. In
such cases it is customary to send
the inquirer the bulletin with the re-
quest for him to analyze with its aid
his business. The Information thus OBJ
tanned Is compared with similar In
formation on file in the department
and the specialists In the office of
farm management are thus enabled to
point out the mistakes which are caus-
ing trouble in any one individual case.
1t may bo found, for example, that a
dairyman is spending from three to
four times as much money for labor
as other farmers conducting business
on similar scale.
To secure the necessary data that
enable the department to determine
whether or not farmer Is conducting
his business as efficiently in any one
respect as he should, extensive farm
surveys are made In representative To-
calities. A group Of from 500 to 700
contiguous farms Is selected and a
detailed analysis Of the business of
each one Of these made by trained ex-
perts. They ascertain what the In
yestment is, how much Of 1t is in land
and buildings, and how much In live
stock, machinery, feed. supplies. etc.
The production Of the farm in crops
ana l,.e stock Is next studied, and the
returns from the sales Of all products
rscertained. The survey also includes
an estimate Of the amount Of deprecia-
ton Of the buildings, work stock, ma
chinerv. ETC., on the farm. With this in

MAKING FOOL OF HIMSELF.

Because one man out of ten makes
a fool of himself is no reason why the
other nine should be deprived of the
pleasure of drink" Replying to this
proliquor argument, Clarence True
Wilson, prohibition speaker, says:
"Yes; but it does not stop with one
mans making fool of himself. The
trouble Is that he makes, too often, a
wild beast of himself. The trouble is
that In that condition he Is liable to
make a corpse of somebody else. If
one man out of ten, or one out of fifty,
turned out by a saloon is for the time
being maniac, it is about time to
shut up the saloon and let the other
forty-nine men crafty their appetites
In less hazardous way. If one coat
out of every ten made from South
American wool were found to engen-
der insanity in the wearer, would the
public do right to pass law, if neees-
sary, preventing the manufacture or
sale of such coats? If one man out of
every ten that ate ice cream was
found to be afflicted with an incurable
disease that made him danger to
passers-by, how long before the law
would throttle the ice cream restau-
rants?
IF liquor We're an entirely new
thing, just introduced into the country,
and the effects were at once aseer-
tanned to be what they are known to
be, prohibitory law would be passed
by acclamation."

BEER.

bEEh.
The Bremen AEti-Alcohol congress
concluded that while whisky and
brandy made man crazy, beer tends
to make him stupid. Doctor Forel of
the University of Zurich says: "The
drinking of beer has killed the ideals
and ethics and has produced an in
credible vulgarity." The reason for
the sottishness is that each pint of
beer contains a small quantity of
pure alcohol, percentage of lupuIin,
the active principle of hops, which
acts very much like the poisonous
principle of Indian hemp At one
time Indian hemp was used as medi-
cine, but 1t had to be abandoned on
account Of its varying and poisonous
characteristics. Doctor Delbruek, an
other authority, says that beer and
wine drinking countries such as
France, Germany, Belgium and Ba-
varia, IRE more alcohol soaked than
the whisky and brandy countries, and
states that the beer danger Is much
greater than the spirit danger.

MODERN WAY.

The newest and largest Of United
States battleships. the Mississippi.
was christened with water from the
Mississippi river. When people stop
to consider the symbolism Of the chris
tening rite. religious or nautical. wa
ter is invariably chosen. In days gone
by, spirituous liquors were generally
supposed to give long life and to bring
good luck, but the revelations Of SCI
ence have thoroughly exploded that
belief. AS is well pointed out, the
christening of q ship with champagne
or anything containing sicohol, the
symbol OF destruction and death, is
an absurdity and confession Of ig-
noranca.

DANGER IN TOO MUCH FRUIT
Unless Orchard is Shared by Hogs and
Other Stock, Turkeys Should Not

A great danger comes from the tur.
key eating too much fruit In the Or
chard.
Unless the orchard is shared by the
hogs and other stock as well as the
turkeys, they should not be allowed
to run In 1t very much.
