WOMEN ARE FAST
SUPPLANTING MEN


There are 169, 900 men school
teachers in the United States and
537 600 women teachers, total of
100000 This is the summary given
In the annual report of the commits
sIoner of the United States Board of
Education, just issued. Since 1900
there has been a decrease of 20 per
cent in the number of men teachers
IN the elementary schools, against an
increase of 8 per cent on the woman
side. The reason seems to be that
men find it easier than the women
elsewhere to earn more than $525,
the average annual salary of a
teacher.
The report shows there were 30
100000 persons attending schools in
the United States in 1916, or q per
cent of the population, as compared
with 19 per cent in Great Britain, II
per cent in France, and 20 per cent
IN Germany. approximately $780,
100000 was spent for education in
1914, and on that basis it is estimated
81 ,O00,O00,000 has been spent in
1916.

This country's crops for 1916 had
record value of 1854, 500, 900,
says the Federal Department of Ag-
riculture, an increase of $1,75O, 00O,-
600 over 1915. Prices ranged ex-
tremely high, due partly to decreased
production, partly partly to the foreign de-
mand created by the war. Corn
showed the greatest increase, advanc-
ing in value to S2,295,783, 900, or
$573,103,000 over 1915; cotton
reached $1,079, 1913, 900, increase

$4,000, increase $95,250,0 900.
A revision of the 1915 estimates of
crop production was announced by
the department showing the corn
crop to have been 2,994,793, 900.

$4,000 bushels from previous esti-

action was taken upon petition

county of largest population, but
pays the greatest amount of taxes.

DISTINGUISHED FRoNTIERMAN,
SPENT THE EAST IS YEARS
ON WYOMING RANCH.

Buffalo Bill, famous scout, soldier
and the American boys hero, is re
ported dyingi
Throughout his 10 years Buffalo
Bill has always been active and woI
the most admiration Of young Amer
lea by his advenlIresome life.
He was born William Frederick
Cody but in 1867 killed 1890 buf,
falo in I8 months and ever since
America has known him as Buffalo
Bill.
Up to the civil war Cody was a
pony express rider. He enlisted with
the Seventh Kansas as scout and
guide during the war, and became
colonel.
In 1868 Cody became a govern
nnent scout and furnished the thrills
of Indian warfare Of which most
American boys have read. He boasts
he took part in more Indian battles
than any other white man. In one,
he says, he killed Yellow Hand, the
Cheyenne chief, in hand-to-hand
fight
Buffalo Bill became rich with his
Wild West show, which he started in
1876. He toured the world with his
cowboys and ponies, giving Europe
it's first glimpse of Americas wild
and woody west.
Retiring from the show in 1908,
Buffalo Bill lived on his western
ranch, where he has devoted his later
years to reclamation Of arid lands in
Wyoming. He turned the Big Horn
valley from a barren, sun-dried waste
into a fruitful wealth-producing
country.
At one time Cody spent $50, 900 to
make Mrs. Katherine Clemmons
Gould, wife of the millionaire, How
ard Gould, stage stor. He sued
her for that amount, which he
claimed he lost in the unsuccessful
venture. The suit was withdrawn,
however, before decision was made.

Improbable in War Zone.
The United States is overrun by
European crooks, some Of them the
smoothest thieves on the continent.
They have lefs Europe because of the
war, which has made theft hardly
worth while on a big scale across the
water. They expect to follow the
big social events in New York, Bos-
ton, Philadelphia, Washington, Chi
cago, and other big centers. How
ever, the crooks will find their pres
ence is known to American detec-
tives. Already many agencies have
booked more than double the number
of guards employed in former years.
Detectives in the United States are
expecting some of the biggest thefts
in recent years during this winter.
The ''war millionaires" of 1916, with
no traditions, connections or backing
of the proper social sort are expect
ed to be comparatively easy marks
for the clever crooks of Europe,
some of whom have made it bust
ness to learn social usage to the last
detail. These will pose as mem
bers of the nobility and it will take
the loss of $4,000 or $4,000 to
bring some recent "millionaires' to
their senses. Then they will scan
their social lists more closely and
shut out imposteTs.
The social thieves Of the United
States have been driven out of bust
ness, but detectives will have new
and hard job to nab these oily folk;
from across the ocean.

AN HONESTY CENSUS
TAKEN BY NEW YORKER
MAILED 100 oNE-DoLLAR BILLS
BY MISTAKE. ONLY 81
WERE SENT BACK.

Cleveland Moffett, a New York
magazine writer, recently took his
lantern in hand, figuratively speak
ing, and like Diogenes of old went
out hunting for honest men-and
women. Desiring to know whether
New Workers really were as honest
as he believed them, he mailed 100
one-dollar bills to a carefully SCI
lected list of so men and so women,
all apparently addressed to the wrong
parties. Each envelope also carried
return address, which would enable
the recipient to send back the money.
Millionaire 'tSwiped'' His.
The result was most illuminating.
One widely known millionaire was
among the men who s'swiped" the
dollar. Women were shown to be
more honest than men, for SO out of
them returned the money, but only
81 men did so. Only one saloon
keeper out of five "came across, y
and of all the groups Of five into
which the lists were divided none
but successful business women"
made perfect score for honesty.
Those who kept the money We're:
How They Averaged Up.
Women-two wives of prosperous
citizens, two actresses, two steno-
graphers, two trained nurses, one
teacher, two housekeepers, two work
ing girls, two women doctors, and
two women lawyers.
Men-two successful merchants
one rich man, one lawyer, four so
loon men, two plumbers, two alder
men, one newspaper man, one actor
three doctors, and two policemen.

WASHINGTON. Millions of fish
are dying in the waters Of the Gulf
of Mexico, off the Florida west coast,
and the Federal Bureau of Fisheries
has rushed an expert to that locality
to try to solve the mystery Of poison
streaks" that are coloring the water
for miles up and down the coast.
Not only are tons of fish being
washed ashore, but poisonous vapors
are arising from the water, killing
chickens and email animals by the
hundreds.
The only explanation bureau Off
Gals can suggest for the miles long
strips of brownish, deadly water is a
possible underwater volcanic erup-
ton of poisonous gases.
