Your Nose Knows That
Sauerkraut Has Staged
Mighty Comeback Now

In the existence of every man there
comes time when duty demands that
he shoulder broom, mop or any other
emblem of domestic felicity and stand
guard outside his neighbours door.
That time is when the aromatic odor
Of cooking sauerkraut drifts placidly
out upon the peaceful atmosphere, fill
ing ones mind with thoughts far
from printable in this noble family
journal Of ours.
Yet, in spite of this price set upon
their heads, Ardmore grocerymen re-
port the sauerkraut barons still loll-
ing in their luxury. and the sale of
the one and one.half pound can TO
the poor mortals with a voracity for
the aforesaid S. *. almost equal 10
that Of Jiggs himself for his immortal
corn beef and cabbage.
During the war sauerkraut was
given the name of liberty cabbage
in the days Of patriotic fervor that
reigned. The mention of such name
today, though. is like bringing bacl,
thoughts of the dead, for such a title
would cause the grocery boy to dror
his jaw in astonishment. It's the old
familiar sauerkraut now-with weinies
and all the fixin's.
Time was when a "keep OUT sigr

against the importation Of the odorou'
vegetable to her sacred domains. deal

In the January edition of the OK

called to the eighth annual show OF
the Oklahoma state poultry fedora

While il will not go down in his

"at the same time it may well be said
that the eighth annual exhibition of
the Oklahoma state poultry federation
which was held at Ardmore. Okla,
from December to IL was one of
the best shows ever held in the state.
Taken as whole, the show was bet
ter balanced, the quality was better
and no word OF condemnation could
be spoken of the management from
takers OF the handsome auditorium in
which the exhibition was housed.
"Ardmore did herself proud in the
way they entertained the exhibitors
and visitors and it is certain that
she will receive a liberal amount OF
publicity from having handled this
even which will rebound to her credit

POULTRY COMES
TO FARMERS AID
Produce Dealers Use All
Eggs Raised in This Sec

Hens to Texas Cities.

Following the example set by 9TH
ers, Carter county farmers, more
than ever before, are disposing of
their poultry and eggs to tide them
selves over to another fiscal year,
local produce dealers assert. Acutely
hit by the cotton crop failure, this
selling of poultry has been the sole
salvation of the farmer, and in future
years no farm will he found without
q large growing of chickens upon it,
\ ready market for all poultry
products is found in Ardmore, the
prevalent prices being 16 cents per
pound for hens and so cents per dozen
for eggs. Hardly ever do the local
produce dealers become overstocked

Many Of the farmers of this com
munity through the poultry show,
which was recently held here. have
come to realize the real benefit from
raising turkeys and chickens, and

LEOPOLD and in the lives of others
like him, whose eccentricities are
barred to the world every so often, is
not so much that he was worth
$4,000 and never put his money to
use. 1t is his dreadful poverty of
human contacts. This man went to
the neighborhood where he died when
he was a man in his thirties. Fami-
lies grew up around him; he saw one
generation succeed another, and yet,
in a district where life is intimate
and crowded and its successes ind
defeats meet sympathetic response.
Old Man LEoPoID-for he was truly
old at S0-kept apart.
When the news of Old Man IsEo-
PoLD's death spread about the neigh

other "Old Man LEOPOLD is Dead" the
usual answer was "Oh, is he?" That
was all. Here and there somebody
added "Queer old guy, wasn't he?"

Government operation swallowed up
the bulk of the increased revenues
of the roads, that reckless, costly
and indefensible policy naturally was
carried out at the expense of the
highly skilled labor in the respon-
sibie posts charged with the close
vigilance and heavy duty of actually
operating the railroads. When all
the money was thus bagged by the
McAdoo mechanics and their fellow
favorites it was no longer there for
anybody else to get.
Perhaps the four big brotherhoods
would not be any more averse than
the railway management to sec a
fresh start made, with their old su-
periority again recognized in the
new order of things. And perhaps
under these circumstances the pres
ent strike votes of the day laborers
on the roadbeds and of the shop
workers off the trains viii be care

Virginia Aiding Stock Breeders.

Replacing grade sires- with pure
breds is the quickest and best way
to improve live stock, and if other
communities will follow the example
Of Charlottesville. Virginia, the
scrub male will soon be a thing of
the past.
Virginia has long been famous for
the quality Of it's live stock, particu-
larIy horses and cattle. In no part
of il has the standard been higher
than in the Charlottesville district,
where some of the largest stock
farms in the State are situated. To
work further improvement the
banks of that city will lend to farm
ers and to stock breeders the money
pure bred sires cost in excess of the
amount for which the inferior AMI.
mails they are to replace will bring.
The loans will run for year.
Cattle breeders agree that "the
bull is half the herd" 1t is equally
true of other live stock and is un-
derstood by progressive breeders
everywhere.

The Irish Constitution.

The Constitution drawn for the
Irish Free State and presented to
southern Ireland before yesterdays
election contains all the spirit of the
treaty and goes even further than
that instrument in it's guarding Of
the rights of the people. 1t gives
freedom Of language, Of religion and
conscience, of education, of suffrage.
1t offers to the individual the same
freedom Of speech and Of assembly
and the same security against un-
reasonable search that are guaran-
teed in the United States Constitu-
tion. 1t gives to the Irish Free State
Parliament exclusively the right to
raise and maintain an army 1t per-
mits the Free State to refuse to par
ticipate in any war--even IL the very
life of England is involved-unless
Ireland itself is invaded. In this last
respect the Free State is more inde-
pendent than Canada, the command
Of whose military forces rests with
the Crown.
AS for the part played in the Con-
stitution by the Crown, we know how
little the Crown attempts to exercise
in Canada and Australia any author
ity at odds with the will of the peo-
pie. And while the representative Of
the Crown in Ireland will appoint
the twelve members of the Executive
Council, that Council will be respon-
sible to the Chamber of Deputies,
and its president, who in effect will
be Prime Minister, will be nominated
by the Chamber.
Technicalities, however, are scarcely
important now. What is important
to Irishmen is that the Constitu-
tion. while it gives to Ireland the
legal freedom that is enjoyed by the
other Dominions, goes even further
in spirit. 1t answers, in words which
the treaty itself did not contain, the
question so often asked in Ireland
and America: Is Ireland really free?
For Article II. Of the Constitution Is
as plain as pike:
ARTICLE II. All the powers Of the
Government and all authority. legis-
lative, executive and judicial, are
derived from the people and the same
shall be exercised in the Irish Free
State through organizations estab-
lished by or under and in accord
with this Constitution.'
The people from whom the power
and authority are derived and who
are henceforth to WELD them are ex-
pected to be worthy Of their new part
in the drama of the world.

Old Man Leopold.

EMIL LUDWIG LEOPOLD lived In the
neighborhood of First avenue and
Sixth street for forty years, and
when he died the other day the po-
lice had to search his room before
they could learn his name. The
neighborhood knew him only as Old
Man LEOPOLD.
There were only three people, ap-
parently, that he ever talked to. One
was his landlady and the others
were two old men with whom he
used to play pinochle. They were the
only persons who saw him buried in
Lutheran Cemetery.
The first real interest the neigh
borhood took in old Man LEOPOLD
followed the discovery that he had
loft an estate Of $4,000. During all
the years of his life there it had
accepted him indifferently, somewhat
curious at first because he never did
any work. Sometimes he asked for
food and got ii. He never caused
any trouble.

The City and the Markets.
Bureaucrats Fail to Improve th'
Handling or Quality Of Food.

To THE New YORK HERALD: Never
since the American doughboy sold to
a native of Paris a quarter interest in
the Paris underground railway have
market men enjoyed such a side split
ting laugh as when Mayor Hylan
claimed credit for starting opposition to
the Pennsylvania Railroad delivering
potatoes at Kearny. N. j., eight miles
from this city. instead of at its New
York terminal. without making any re-
duction in freight charges. His claim
is worth a niche in the Hall of Records.
The truth Of the matter Is that neither
Mayor Hylan nor his Market Commits
sioner OMalley ever heard of the mat
ter until long after p. Willis Holden.
A. w. Frost and other representatives
Of the Fruit and Produce Trade Asso-
citation conferred with officials of the
Pennsylvania Railroad and made a vig-
orous protest against the change.
O'Malley first heard of IL through q
friend of his on the market. who saw
an opportunity for the sapient commits
sioner to get on the frsnt page.

dishonest measures than the ancient
god kings had over the winds they tried
to control by looking in the direction
whence they came and talking to them.
If It has performed a single benefit to
growers, distributors or consumers the
fact has escaped my notice. 1t has been
a scandal and a reproach to the city
ever since It was started and It has
been no less inefficient or farcical under
Hylan than under the Mitchell adminis-
tration.
Mitchell placed at It's head a young
man who knew nothing whatever about
the growth. grading or distribution OF
fruits and vegetables; Mayor Hylan
went him one better by appointing a
preacher commissioner. ana then remov-
ing him to make room for the present
incumbent. whose administration reeked
with scandal not many moons back In
connection with graft In one of the city's
markets The department at present
has large force Of high salaried en-
ployees. and often wonderland still
the wonder grows--why enterprising
newspapers do not examine into the
workings of this useless bureau and
compare the results with the high ex-
penditure which It entails upon the tax
payers of the city.
The next thing we may expect to hear
from Mayor Hylan Is that he was first
in the field TO protest against rabbits
chewing tobacco.

Protecting Bank Balances.
| Plan for Maximum Checking
Amounts In All Accounts.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: In THE
NEW YORK HERALD of June II there ap-
peared an article on the raising of
checks. The following plan appealed to
me as feasible for lessening the evil:
The depositor should notify his bank
not to cash any checks above a certain
specified maximum amount; this amount
to be one that will include 80 per cent.
to 90 per cent. of the checks he sends
out, or an amount approximately 10 to
90 per cent. of his daily balance.
Any bill calling for more than his
maximum checking amount a depositor
could cover with two or more checks.
Thus depositor with a maximum
checking amount of $500 could pay a
$1,000 bill with two checks. or any bill
in excess of this with bank draft.
The maximum checking amounts of
depositors could be entered on the same
cards which 1 believe the paying tell
ers in large banks now have at hand
for ready reference.
In time paying tellers would remem-
Der the maximum checking amounts of
individual depositors the same as they
remember those accounts that need
watching to prevent overdrawing.
In small banks this system would be
even easier of application than in large
banks because of the paying tellers'
more intimate knowledge Of depositors
and their accounts.
Banks. have no doubt, would be
ready to extend this watchful service
upon request by individual depositors
whose business they value most but its
value would be greatest If 1t was a
standard banking practice. by concerted
action of all banks through the recon-
mendation of their association.
Checks could still be raised and
cashed, of course, but not to the extent
of wiping out depositor's account.
And a check raiser would always be
subject to detection through not know
ing a depostor's maximum checking
amount.
There may be some banks. of course
where the plan outlined above might
not be feasible, but believe the ma
jority Of the banks could do it.
