DRINK ONLY WHEN THIRSTY
physician Decries Having Any Set
!. Time for the Taking Of Liquid :
Into the System.


No rules for water drinking can be
| laid down, but the best guide is the
thirst of the individual, according to
| DR.. John c. Hemmeter of Baltimore.
| in an address at a meeting, of the
American Therapeutic association.
Our bodies have reservoir in
which much water is stored; this is
in the. tissues underlying the skin and
in the muscles. The blood and lymph
contain about three and a half quarts
of water. In the course OF, a1day about
two quarts of gastric juice, from one
and half to two quarts of saliva.
one and a half quarts of pancreatic
Juice, and intestinal juices in quanti-
ties that have been estimated vari-
Ously at between two and eight quarts,
are secreted. Thus man secretes
altogether about eight quarts of Dir
gestive juices every day.; yet he has
only from three to four quarts of blood
and lymph. -
The mystery OF whence the water
comes and whittier it goes is solved
when we learn that the reservoirs un-
der the skin supply it and reabsorb 1t.
When we are thirsty it means that
the supply in the reservoirs is run
ming low. Precipitation disposes OF
much Of this water, and by evapora-
ton keeps the body cool. Physical
work or exercise produces much heat
and if man who performs it cannot
perspire his temperature goes up rap
idly.

BULKY FEED FOR BROOD sow
Clover chaff When ScaIded and Soaked

and Suitable.

In reply to frequent inquiries for a
bulky feed for wintering brood sows,
IL may be said that clover chaff, such
as accumulates On barn floor, when
scalded and soaked for II hours, makes
a palatable and suitable feed Of this
kind. 1t Is desirable to add little

clover and alfalfa even when fed dry.
When they have access to it, sows will
also eat little corn fodder.

Address-League OF
Nations Defended.

San Francisco, Cal.-From the
shadow of the Golden Gate the
hosts of democracy sent roaring
tribute across the country Monday
to President Wilson.
The national convention flung
aside for the moment the business
before it, while delegates Carried
on a demonstration that swept the
great gathering off its feet.
It was half an hour before the
outburst evoked by sudden dis
play of the presidents portrait
could be stilled. Again and again,
as his name was mentioned, the
cheers broke out anew, to culmi-
nate in the shout of approval that
was adopted and sent to the White
House, striking testimonial Of his
party's faith and pride in the man
who has led II through troubled
years.
Arrangements for the first ma
tional political convention to be
held in the far West had been we'll

HARRIS EXPLAINS
SCHOOL CONDITION
ALL SOUTHERN STATES ARE Civ.
EN- A LOW POSITION IN
THE LIST.
NO CAUSE FOR EXCITEMENT
Anyone Familiar With Conditions In
Southern States Knows That .
Poor Showing Is Almost Un>
aVoidable.

Baton Rouge - Superintendent T.
H. Harris of the state department or
education answers the Russell Sage
Foundation on the poor sbowings
made by the Southern States in
schools,
For the last few weeks the news
papers throughout the country have
published and commented upon re-
port by the Russell Sage Foundation
giving the results of certain inVestiga-
tions and tabulations by DR.. Leonard
Ayres. The report attempts TO set
out index numbers showing the rela-
tive merits of the various state sys-
TENS of public schools. All Of the
Southern States are given low posi-
tions Louisiana is near the top OF
the list of the Southern States, but
still 1t makes a poor showing; and |
have learned that many Of our good
Louisiana people are somewhat as
turbed and distressed over the situa-
tion
| think there is no cause to grow
excited over this report. Three Of the
important factors used in arriving at
the relative educational standing Of
the different states are: (D The en-
~ollment in the public schools as COM
pared with the number of educable
children; (2) the length Of the school
session; (3) the annual salaries paid
teachers.
Any one familiar with the Condt
tions in the Southrn States knows
that we are bound to make a poor
showing in any school statistics bas,
ed largely upon those three factors,
for it should be remembered thSb the
negroes receive the same considera-
ton at the hands of DR.. Ayres as the
white people. We make no secret OF
the fact that $4,000 of our negro chill
dren are not enrolled in the schools;
that the negro school term is only a
fraction above four months, and that
the annual salaries paid negro teach
ers is approximately $500. These
facts necessarily play havoc with any
statistics having to do with the edu-
Oational standing of Louisiana, and
what is true Of Louisiana is true OF
all If the other Southern States,

San Francisco, Cal-The league Of
nations covenant was championed as
the Monroe doctrine Of the world, "
by Homer Cummings, temporary chair
man of the democratic national con-
vention, in his keynote address Mon
day.
Of the peace treaty's defeat in the
senate he said: "No blacker crime
against civilization has ever soiled the
pages of our history"
He characterized the republican
platform as "reactionary and provin-
cial Filled with premeditated SIAN
ders and vague promises, it will be
searched in vain for one constructive
suggestion for the reformation of the
conditions which it criticises and de-
plores," he continued.
The oppressed peoples of the earth
will look in vain. 1t contains no mes
sage of hope for Ireland; no word of
mercy for Armenia; and 1t conceals a
sword for Mexico. 1t is the work of
men concerned more with material
things than with human rights. 1t con-
tains no thought, no purpose, which
can give impulse or thrill to those
who love liberty and hope to make the
world safer and happier place for the
average man"
He declared that the peacetime rec

March, 1913, to the outbreak Of the
world war has to Its credit more ef-
fective, constructive and remedial leg.
islation than the republican party had
placed upon the statute books in

Praising the administrators course
in the war, he said: I'VE fought a
great war, for a great cause, and we
had leadership that carried America
to greater heights of honor and power
and glory than she has ever known be.

patriotism, supported by the courage
and spirit of our people. All this is
freely and gladly acknowledged, but
surely the time has come when, be.
cause OF the calculated criticism and
premeditated calumnies of the opposi.
ton we are entitled to call attention
to the fact that all of these things
were accomplished under the leader
ship of a great democrat and of a
great democratic administration. If
the republican leaders are not able to
rejoice with us in this American tri-
umph, they should have the grace to
remain Qent, for it does not lie in
the mesns of those who conducted
the SIsnish-American war to indulge
in the luxury of criticism"

SOME FISHERMAN

Jack Skull of the Biles-Lockhart Clothing company has decided to en- gage in a side line on his own hook. He is just back from a trip on which he went to establish it. He knows that in spite of the high price of things that there is always a market for something extra nice to eat. He is therefore going to establish live fish market, where you can have the trout yanked out of the water and fried while he is fresh. Jack spent the week over on Oak Creek catch ing start" for this piscatorial en- terprise. He brought them right along. But he caught some too big to bring along. He had to put them back in the stream. He said 1t was just awful to think how the people of Phoenix would have enjoyed those big fish, and there he was-he had to just throw them back into the stream. But you just ought to have seen his good wife smile in her pride of her husband as a great fisherman, eh?
