THE latest reform" bill is drafted by Senator Wesley l.. Jones of Washington and it would forbid all American citizens abroad and mem bers of the American diplomatic and consular services to serve liquors at public or official functions, or to rec OgniZe clubs where such beverages are dispensed. The bill also would require the diplomatic service to en- force this provision.
 The measure would prevent Ambas- sador John w. Davis from belonging to or attending social gatherings at the St. James club in Piccadilly, which is open to all members of the diplomatic corps. It would bar drinks from the table of every American am bassador. II might even prohibit d diplomat from handing friendly visi-

Cleanliness Is Next Door to Dignity

rRAECO-ROMAN baths of the Unit. o ed States senate, installed nearly eight years ago, but never put into service, are now being cleared of the cobwebs and stains of time, and will be in shape to offer their luxuries of steam, plunge, shower and electricity to the members of the new senate when it assemblies.
 Charges of extravaganza were aimed at the baths in congressional debate when the power of administration last swung from Republican to Democratic, and as result the baths, installed in the then new senate office building. were shorn of their expensive equip ment, bereft of their attendants and left to gloom.
 The marble slabs, Turkish rugs and steam proof tables and chairs were turned over to government hospitals, and only the marble shells and nickel fittings left in place.
 Now. however, the baths are coming back, but under a new plan. Mem bers of the senate themselves will pay large part of the operating expenses, and special unofficial committee has taken charge of the assessments, which will be levied against each user

 The proposed bill goes further than any suggestion heretofore made in con- neCtion with the prohibition move ment.
 Drastic penalties are provided for infringement of the proposed law. The second OffenSe would entail a prison term of from six months to six years. In such cases the sentence is manda- tory, the judge being given no discre- tiOnary powers.
 The binding of American diplomats and consular officers is made effective in this section:
 That it shall be unlawful for any citizen of the United States or person owing allegiance to the United States to serve any of the intoxicating liquors mentioned here in section 1 at a pub lie or official function, or give official recognition to any club or association that keeps or serves such liquors for beverage purposes
 The beverages forbidden are de- Scribed as including "distilled, spirit uOus. malt, vinous, or any intoxicating liquors that contain one-half of one per cent or more of alcohol by volume, by whatever name they may be called"

If the Capital Traction Company's
equity in stock is to be scaled down
to s12.ooo.ooo Of par value. that is.
1895 per cent of its equity, ours. SIM
ilarly, would be scaled down to $11,-
5S5,751.S2.
The commission, then, has deter
mined, everything considered. that in
terms of stock the Capital Traction
Company has equities represented by
$12.000,000 of stock and the Washing
! ton Railway and Electric Company
equities represented by $11,5S5, ,751.S2
of stock-in short. that the net equi-
ties of the two companies are approx
imately even.
! An obvious error was made, how
ever. just at the end of the figures
submitted. in depriving the Washing
| ton Railway and, Electric Company of
| its net equities in $11.585, ,751.82 of
stock by deducting from the equity of
| the Washington Railway and Electric
Company $S,500,000 of preferred stock,
leaving common stock Of the Wash
| ington Railway and Electric Company
an equity of only $3,0S5,751.S2.: as
manifestly the common stock is en-
titled to all the earnings of equities
over and beyond the preferred stock,
, which is only 5 per cent.
! BY leducting the $S.500,000 Of pre-
| ferred stock from the equity values
i to which the Washington Railway and
Electric Company is entitled and CIV
/ ing to the common stock only the
! difference. the effect would be to pass
to the Capital Traction Company a
share in all the equities in $S.500,000
of stock after paying per cent.
J which the commission has already de-
F.. termined belonged wholly to the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company. This, however, is easy Of
solution. The Capital Traction Com
pany is entitled. according to the COM
! missions method. to total equities
represented by $12.000,00O of stock
and the Washington Railway and
Electric Company to total equities
represented by $1l,5s5.751.s2 of stock.

what the line of production, advertise.
How few farmers advertise!
Is it any wonder that their markets
are poor? What if an automobile
concern or patent medicine concern
advertised as little as the average
farmer? But what if the average
Wisconsin farmer did take a notion
to advertise? What would he say of
his products that would cause people
to travel long distances to secure
them?
This brings us to the point of pro-
duction. We find that some Wiscon-
sin farmers do advertise and when
they do advertise we find them adver-
Using standard stuff, purebred cat
tie. Wisconsin pedigree grains, Wis
consin varieties of purebred, disease
free, certified potatoes, etc.
The Wisconsin farmer who adver-
tises is up to date, he is producing
something beside scrub and common
stuff, and is awake to the value OF
advertising. He knows the name Of
his stuff How many, many farmers
when asked the kind of oats they are
growing have to confess that they do
not know, or if they 10 know, give you
some uncommon name not known to
the best Wisconsin pedigree grain
growers?
So, the problem of marketing farm
crops begins back on the farm with
growing something which the world
wants, with producing standard stuff.
Wisconsin agricultural products can
60 around the world. Wisconsin peM-
gree grains are conquering the seed
grain markets of the world, Wisconsin
potatoes are conquering the seed po-
tato markets of the United States. Wis
consin live stock is cOnqueriilg the
live stock markets. But these things
must be standardized and kept stand
ardized.
