STATE FAIR FACILITIES

SMILE HAS DISTINCT VALUE

In debate In the national house Of
representatives one member charged
the members on the other side with
being. continual Crouch" Is 1t nat
ural fof men, especially politicians, to
be grouches? HIVE they not yet learn
ed the value Of smile?
This busy world, with its wonderful
revelations, Its tremendous possibili-
ties, has no use for the "grouch." The
minister who never smiles misses the
sweetness of religion. The lawyer
who never smiles loses more cases
than he wins. The merchant who
never smiles loses trade. The general
who never smiles loses his grip on his
men. The politician who never smiles
usually stays at home. The sales
man who never smiles loses his posi-
tion.
Somehow people don't like q
"grouch," man who doesn't know
how or when to smile.
A smile Is the biggest asset to any
man or woman. 1t means admirers
good nature, health--and wealth. II
disarms a foe and makes friend. Il
builds hope, banlshes fear. 1t opens
the door to the joys Of. life and the
riches of existence. 1t is a jewel be

Queer Burial Custom.

Among the Indians Of Alaska llv-
ing along the rock-bouad coast Of the
Befing sea many old customs prevail,
and 1t Is still believed that when a
man dies he must pass forward
through four successive stages before
he reaches heaven. Thus his mourn
ers and family must spend four days
and nights In chanting songs or tell
Ing OF his virtues and must eat only
the foods Of which he was fond. At
the end of that time the body OF the
dead man IS wrapped into a bundle
and is hauled up through the roof
by strong ropes that the corpse may
not pass through any door used by
the living. Cremation follows and the
ashes are put into bag and stored In
the great wooden chests which MI
the family grave house,
In the old days these ceremonies OF
those four days were very elaborate,
and the songs and chants used strik-
ing in their solemnity. Now, how
ever, much has been modernlzed. but
they still dislike the thought OF en-
tering q door through which Q body
has beer carried.

dreds of inland cities and towns, for
the first time In their history, will get
fair deal from the transportation
companies. The bill passed The Sen
ate at the last session, but was lost
in the House owing to the pressure Of
war matters and the congestion which
developed during the closing weeks
1t is believed, however, that large
majority Of the members favor its
adoption.
In an Interview today, Major Cen
eral William M. Black said
1.-THE Poindexter bill is long step
in the right direction. The abuses
connected with railway freight rates
first attracted my attention in conncc-
ton with army work. In fact, there
ia no question but what the present
railroad tariffs constitute one OF the
grossest impositions ever practicca
in this country.
sThe tariffs for freight are still
based upon the old principle Of charg-
ing all that the traffic will bear, a
relic Of the days Of unregulated mo-
nopoly. The railroads have practical
ly driven water transportation OUT OF
business in many parts OF the conn-
try. by making low cut rates at COM
petitive points where water carriers
were trying to do business Then
they made up the losses by overcfarg'
ing in other localities where there was
no such competition. The system was
a distinctly selfish one devised for the
greater prosperity Of the railroads
and involved the exercise of autocratis
mowers which do not rightfully belong
to common carriers of goods.
aWater transportation can be re
yived in many parts Of the unitet
states as d result Of proper reguiatioi
Of railway freight charges. Ther'
are many classes Of freight wnici
might probably be sent by water Z

selves"

Potatoes properly stored should not
sustain loss throughout the winter
season of more than per cent, and
under exceptionally good conditions not
more than or per cent. The max
imum return from the crop after IT Is
produced depends on the care with
which the potatoes are harvested,
stored, graded, sacked, and the ability
Of the grower to sell at the most ad-
yantageous time. Approximately one
third of the main potato crop Is mar
keted at harvest time, and the re-
nainder is stored as O reserve supply
for winter and spring. 1t Is physically
impossible, as well as economically un-
desirable, to attempt to market the en-
tire crop In the autumn, and the only
way in which potatoes can be handled
successfully, so as to insure a uniform
!. supply, is to provide sufficient storage
on the farm or at the shipping station
for from 65 to rs per cent of the crop.
