Speaking Of Kitchens.

They have abolished the kitchen
in the most modern houses. They
stick little dens in between the pant
ry and bath room, dens with two
hole gas plate, an electric stove, a
few cupboards, and automatic de-
vices and some bare yards of white
enamel and call 1t kitchen. Where
as a real kitchen is twice as big as
any other room in the house, and
holds the kitchen table, where you
dine! and the sink, where you wash
and a big six-hole range, where you
cook and mediate; and a lot OF
shelves for books, and cupboards,
and plate rails, and pipe racks, and
almanacs and rag rugs, and pokers,
and fire shovels, and baby's shoes.
and mas slippers and pas mittens,
and everything you need from Octob-
err until April. Better yet a kitchen
with a four-foot fireplace, and and

POLITICS AND BOOZE.

The senate followed the lead of
the house and passed the enforce
ment bill over the veto. Now it is
proclaimed from the presidents bed
side that he will proclaim the
war over and thus afford an intriri
between the January closing and the
war time prohibition.
AS gamester in practical politics
it may seem that the president has
outplayed congress. His declaration
will attract the votes of the "per-
sonal liberty" advocates and be hail
ed with joy by those who have large
stocks of liquor to dispose of; but
congress did the right thing under
the circumstances. The president had
appealed to congress to make an
open season for booze. If he had
chosen he could have proclaimed a
wide opening then as he proposes to
proclaim it now. The appearances
are that he would much have pre-
ferred to have congress hold the
sack. That body refused the buck
when he passed it, 1t foresaw
months of practical debauch in Ger
tain centers, serious danger from
unrestricted use and sale of liquor
while the country is torn with strik-
es and threats of revolution urged
upon ignorant foreigners by the paid
agents of bolshevism and the I'M
balanced minds of industrial and
political neurasthenics.
So it is question whether the play
wins or loses. The sense of the coun-
try is, generally speaking, that hav-
ing closed the booze business temper
arily and intending to close perma-
nently in January it would be we'll
to avoid few weeks of open season
and debauch. The country at large
also realizes the dangerous element
that liquor introduces into great in
dustrial disputes. 1t would have those
disputes considered and settled under
the sobriety of present conditions.

house to the bootlegger in the alley

RAISE FUNDS FOR MEMORIAL.
County Organizations to carry on
Roosevelt Memorial Campaign.

Des Moines,-Funds are being
raised all over Iowa in behalf of the
Roosevelt memorial movement, and
every bank in the state has been
asked to receive voluntary subscrip-
tons.
County organisations have been
formed in most counties, and in all
will be organized this week.
The campaign will extend indefi-
nitely. Iowa's share in the national
movement is 100000 and number
of counties have already raised their
share of the quota.
The movement is entirely non
partisan. Funds are to be used for
the construction of a Roosevelt mem
orial building at Washington and the
purchase of the Roosevelt home at
Sycamore Hill, Oyster Bay, and its
permanent maintenance as a nation
al shrine.
The women of the state will also
participate in the work, an organiza-
ton under the leadership of Miss
Alice French, of Davenport, being
under way which will obtain $4,000
of the states apportionment. Miss
French will name district and county

Mr.. Alfred was former recorder
and at one time representative from
Wayne county.
Mrs. Shaver was elected in the fall
of 1918, and last July was married.
At that time the question arose as
to whether she was eligible to hold
the office, as her husband is a resi-
dent of Oklahoma, and she would
naturally be resident of this state.
The situation was an unusual one.
Mrs. Shaver solved it by resigning,

Fake Land Sales.
Wallace Farmer.

Much Of the recent advance in land
values has been entirely legitimate
but there reports in some localities
of the rankest kind of manipulation
Fake sales are made, and finally the
land is sold at top notch price to a
real farmer.
] From eastern Iowa comes the re-
port of real estate dealer solicit
ating farmers to list farms with him
on contract basis of 21s per cent
commission. These farmers had no
desire to sell, and they listed their
farms at a, figure which they con-
sidered high enough SO that there
would be no chance of selling. But
the real estate man succeeded in sell
ling several of the farms at outland-
ish figures, but with a payment of
only $1,000 down. This $1,000 in
most cases was more than eaten up
by the commission, and in one case
the farmer had to pay over $1,000
in excess of the 81, 900 which he re-
ceived, in order to give the real es-
tate man his 21a per cent commits
sion. These farmers do not know
whether or not they have really sold
their farms. They have exercised bad
business Judgment, and, so far as
they can see, the only man who is
certain to gain is the real estate
man.
There are many farmers who are
just as shrewd dealers in land as any
one, and they need no word of eau
ton about the necessity of care
fully examining contracts. 1t is not
enough to set high figure on the
farm, but it is also wise to take into
consideration the commission which
real estate man may exact in re-
1ation to the cash payment.
Above all, any man who intends to
stay by the farming game should
think very seriously before he sells
his farm. The chances are that he
will lose money in the process of sell
ling his own farm and buying an
other. The thing for actual farmers
to do in this land boom is to ''sit
tight refusing to sell their farms
unless they have some very definite
plans about going elsewhere.

LOWERED PRODUCTION
From All Over The Country Comes
The Story OF Lowered
Production.

Charles Piez, former chairman of
the Emergency Fleet Corporation.
is quoted as saying that bricklayers
who used to lay from 1900 to $500
bricks day in 1914, are only laying
from 500 to 500 now. His stater
ment may relate to conditions only
in single locality. Yet all over
the country there comes the story
Of lowered production. A writer in
one of the leading magazines claims
that factory production is only
about half of normal. An authority
on construction work says that the
workers in the building trades are
only doing about 80 per cent of a
normal days work.
If conditions anything like these
are general over the country no one
need question any longer why every
thing costs high. Whenever pro-
duction is lowered, a scarcity is
|created, and when scarcity is Gre
ated, the law Of supply and demand
forces prices up.
Some men will not turn out a
normal production now, because they
feel that by going slow on their jobs
there is less danger of getting out
of work. The scarcity of labor tends
to make some workers exceedingly
Independent, and they don't tcare
whether they do their best or not,
In the long run those who slack
on their job will suffer for 1t. They
will help create condition of high
prices, and will lose more than they
gain. Many wage earners say they
are worse off than before they got
their wages raised. If so, there is
only one remedy, and that is for all
the men of every trade to take hold
and do all the work they can. If
they are not being fairly treated in
any trade, their employer must re-
organize his business in such a way
as to give his workers an incentive
to do their best. But the country
is headed straight for disaster if
this lowered production continues.

Foreigners-Good and Bad.

In this country we have millions OF
oreigners-English French, Ger
man, Austrian, Italian, Belgian,
Norwegian, Turkish, japanese, Chi
nese, and of every other national
Iity. The great majority of these
foreigners are conscientious and law
abiding citizens. They work.
There is also in this country another
class of foreigners. They constitute
the minority. They are not law abid-
ing. and they are not citizens. They
agitate.
And because of the wild eyed boil
sheyistic vaporings OF these an
archistic wind TANNERS and destroy
ers our country OF late has been in
a constant state of turmoil. This un-
rest and uncertainty are curtailing
production, undermining efficiency
and alternating the loyalty of many
good men. 1t must cease.
Labor and capital must get to-
gether on sane and reasonable
working basis, where the division of
profits will be fair to both sides.
But this will never be accomplished
by allowing braying minority to
usurp the authority which belongs
to sane majority.
Men of intelligence and integrity
do not care to take orders from i'll
iterate and irresponsible foreigners
whose only claim to leadership are
a misguided conscience and a pair
of leather lungs. Brains, not noise,
must prevail if We are to live in
peace and plenty in this country.

Not as he would?

Of your complacent compassion.
Pity her! Yet you have said,

Hiding its ills from your sight.
