Political Season is On

Great and near-great statesmen are
puv 'duro uolSuIqsgM 9ql III ulsSt
as Congress starts OF on its regular
session the political situation is as
clear as mud. Factionalism runs ram
pant through the ranks OF both old
parties. The party captains used to
crack the whip" in the old days. but
that system no longer works. While
the Republicans have a majority in
both branches of Congress it is GER
tain that large blocs OF the law-mak-
ers will refuse to follow the Admins
tration on some important matters.
As the season opens the prospect OF
any policy" being adhered to in Con-
gress is very dubious. II looks more
like a free for all"
Sugar-Producing Palms
Not so many years ago the skeptics
were dubious about the sugar-beet in
dustry. and the cant sugar r%efners
are still determined to put these pro-
ducers of domestic sweets u OF bust
ness. The sugar trust can provide
more simple twists of the wrist" than
any other group of industrial gym
nasts in existence. Nevertheless sugar
beets have won out in the world mar
ket in the economic contest. Nellie
L. Fealy of the Bureau of Plant In
dustry of the Department of Agricul-
ture, has contributed a notable series
OF articles that have just appeared in
Facts About Sugar. describing the dif-
ferent varieties of sugar-producing
palms that are grown. She says that
the writings of the economic botanist
and agricultural chemist in connec-
ton with palms from the standpoint of
sugar production were very meagre up
to the last ten or fifteen years. Yet
she tells us that in some parts of the
world. principally India, millions of
pounds of sugar is taken from the
palm tree. She speaks Of Florida as
being adapted to the production of
sugar-yielding varieties of palms and
quotes an old consular, report from a
representative OF the United States in
Venezuela. who long ago told the
Washington government to introduce
the palm now and twenty years hence
thousands of them will be found
growing in the south, yielding mil

lie mind against these life-term judges.
In the highest official places in the
Washington Administration there is
no word of commentator for the
judge in this matter.
In another case a Texas judge in
sentencing a famous promoter of oil
stocks went out of his way to roundly
abuse the convicted prisoner, using
the most bitter forms of sarcasm. OF
course DIR. Cook couldn't talk back.
Likely he deserved his sentence, but
that mas nothing to do with the
Judges speech telling his personal
opinion Of Cook.
The American public seems always
to be convalescing from the shocks
received when they find out that
judges make mistakes just like other
people. The feeling is that official
despotism, even on the bench, should
be curbed. The methods for applying
the curb vary all the way from the
recall of decisions and judges to short
ening the terms which they may serve.
Evidently even judges should be kept
in leash and not allowed to get to the
point where they raise any fictitious
halos above their official heads.

Several years ago the Federal Gov

women were in competition with the

KEITH'S TAKES OYER
=. HIPPODROME IN FALL
Worlds Largest Playhouse Will Be
Operated As Vaudeville
Theater

New York, July 1s.-H. F. Albee
president of the B. F. Keith vaude-
vile circuit, announced last night that
in conjunction with the United States
Realty and improvement Corporation
owners of the Hippodrome, he will
operate the worlds largest playhouse
beginning in the fall as one of the
chain of Keith theaters.
The announcement came as sur
prise to theatrical circles. as it was
reported when the Hippodrome closed
last spring that John Ringing was
negotiating for 1t. Later 1t was re-
ported that the place was to be turned
into hotel, and even more subse-
auent report had 1t that 1t was to be
RACED. 80
Both these reports were denied,
however, by H. o. Winsor, vice-presi-
dent of the realty corporation, which
is the parent corporation of the
Fcrty-third Street Realty Company,
actual owner, Of The Hippodrome.
Mr.. Keith said the great show
house will be remodeled to accommo-
date 1924 persons, instead of 5.274. its
present seating capacity The stage
viii be set back and the extra space
will permit of the installation of $50
seats.
The Hippodrome was opened on
April H., 1905, and up to last May
house spectacular productions tinged
with circus features. In recent years
this form of. attraction was found to
be failure, principally because of the
interest of children In the movies"

seems that Leslie had told no one,
not even John. She seemed to be
afraid to tell him. She had taken
Ruth Ellington out for a drive that

her about her condition and expected

There was Mrs. Bear a prisoner in

Mr.. Bear saw that she was bound

All vegetables must be freshly
gathered for successful canning, but
peas especially should be canned with
the dew still on them. Nor should
they be too ripe when picked. The
pods should be we'll filled and firm to

The first step in successful canning
is to read the rules and see that all
utensils and ingredients are at hand.
Then work as quickly and neatly as
possible. but do not try to hurry
through. Successful canning takes
time and patience.
To Can Peas
Wash pods and shell, Care should
be taken not to bruise the peas as
this makes them cloudy when canned.
Put enough peas to fill one jar in q
cheesecloth square and plunge, into
rapidly boiling water for five minutes.
The square should be large enough to
hold the peas loosely and the kettle

cover the peas.
