CRAFTS TOMATOES ON WEEDS
South Carolina Man Gets Firmer
Meat in Vegetable by Method.

From the New York Tribune.
j. NJ. Hilton of Kershaw, Lancaster
county, S. c., has had considerable
success in grating tomatoes on jim
son weeds and growing a very hardy
tomato, which is blight and drought
proof. According to specimens ex
hibited, the meat Of the tomato jimson
fruit is firmer than the regular
tomato.
Mr.. Hilton plants his tomato seed
according to custom, >and whom the
plants get to the height of six or
more inches he gratis branches to
the jimson weed. A irm-fleshed to-
mato and a bush that resfsts drought
and blight have been the dream of
truckers. If his plan, which has
worked out very successfully on a
small scale several seasons, can be
enlarged to a commercial scale, the
graft system may become hobby
with truck growers.

tha Clersland Plain Dealer.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
1t is said that in North and South
America no less than 120 or 130
absolutely distinct languages exist.
AS the growth of languages is slow,
it is thought that the fact of the ex-
istence of so great variety of speech
on the western continent proves that
the native red men have inhabited
them for many thousands of years.
Another proof Of the antiquity Of the
American Indians, according to some
authorities, is the fact that they rep
resent q distinct human type, and the
formation of such a type requires

FLYING SQUIRREL FLIES NOT.

A flying squirrel does not fly in

which connects his fore and hind
legs and which he can stretch tight

sort Of parachute. With this aid he
can sail through the air. but always

MORE LIBERAL PROVISION FOR NEEDY
 ALASKANS
; a.assal likaa .iSsss H ~-

During the past week Senator Frank A.. Aldrich has received communications from many organizations in the First and other divisions asking that the act to provide al- lowances for certain aged residents of Alaska be amcxded. They want the present allow ance of $12.50 per month for men and $25 per month for women to be increased so that needy persons of both sex may receive $25 or $30 per month. The women of Skagway have sent him a petition asking that a home be built at Skagway for needy women, on tue order of the Pioneers Home at Sitka for men, The Senator also received word that Representative Grant would ask that an ap- propriation be made for the erection of a home for women at Wrangell on a beautiful plot of ground there that would be donated for the purpose. We understand that Sen ator Dunn has also been enjoined upon be- half of his division to see that more liberal provision is made by Legislative appropri- ation for the needy women of Alaska. If has been apparent for some time that the al
 lowance for aged and needy men and women was not adequate and the Sunday Capital is hopeful that the incoming Legislature will treat this subject with the favorable consider ation that it deserves-Juneau Capital.

 And so, in the final sum of things, who knows where we shall not find greatness? In an obscure little town in an inconspicuous State an unknown little old lady passes to her reward and is heralded throughout the nation as the inventor of succulent cut of beef over which the world has for half century licked it's chops. Who knows but that here in Alaska a similar fame awaits the female pioneer who dcvises the reindeer ragout or the ptarmgan trrffle? And who can tell but that on the long roll of those whose gifts have had most to do with bringing delight and substantialitv into the world, her name may be emblazoned with those of the gustatorial Sherry and Del monco, of the redoubtablc creator of the Crab Louis, and of-Mrs. Remich, genial and soul satisfying compiler of the Porterhouse steak,

Various means of reducing this great out lay of funds have been advanced by different taxpayers, practically all, however, being of the opinion that the offices of patro]man and city attorney could be abolished, thus making a saving of $2,700. By combining the of
 fees of Fire Chief and Chief of Police, with an experienced and efficient man in charge of both departments, there is absolutely no need of patrolman. When the services of an attorney are needed it is time enough to employ one, but no such emergency exists at present. We understand the City Treasurer has offered to perform his duties in the future at salary of $1 per year, plus the clerical expenses involved in preparing the tax roll. Since the Assessor has but little to do, this extra work could be performed by the City Clerk, thus saving 1920. Until within the past year the salary of the health officer was $500 and by again placing it at that figure la like sum would be saved. The amount saved by these few changes, which in no way inter-
 fere with the city being as we'll governed as lit ever has been, totals $3, OO0-about half of the present pay roll-divided as follows:

 in the realm of effete distractions does genius shine! Not only for insubstantia service does there was flashed along the lines of the As sociatcd Press the news that Mrs. Remich was dead. To note the passing of a little old lady in an obscure little town in New Hampshire the telegraph wires of continent were for the time employed, and the record of her ex- ploit written in nations press And who was Mrs. Remich? An! therein, dear reader, is writ the irony of the thing. That on every day of the world million human beings avail themselves of her achievement partake of the creation of her brain, and yet must ask when she is no more - Who was Mrs. Remich! How transient, after all, are the great of how little moment, in their persons, to the con- cerns of the world! A shock it is to the vanity of us all who dream, sometimes, of the import of our doings, that in the announcement of yesterday of the death of Mrs. Remich it was necessary to explain to gaping populace who Mrs. Remich was, what was the nature of her service. The shock was in no wise lessened by the discovery that Mrs. Remich was the original conceiver of that masterpiece of eclec tic gastronomy, that symphony in gustatorial rhapsodies, the Porterhouse steak!

PROHIBITION ENFORCEMENT IN
 PRACTICE

Recently half-tipsy waiter in the Senate restaurant at Washington and at the unseem- ly hour of 1O:3O a. m., dropped on the marble floor a bottle of whiskey that he was carrying under a napkin to that part of the room re- served for Senators and their guests. About the same time, on the House side of the Capitol Building. somebody drOnnod flask of whiskev on the floor in front of the office door of Representative Upshaw of Georeia the gentleman who wants the President and other high officers of the Government to ho "called out into the open and with uplifed hands to swear before high Heaven'' that they will not violate the prohibition law, etc.. Tn consequence of these wasteful and pathetic in cidents, or rather as result of the publicity growing out of them, Senator Curtis of Kan sas, chairman of the Senate Committee or Rules. and Representative Campbell, also of Kansas. chairman of the House Committee on Rules, have informed the Capitol corespon- dents that instructions had been given to their sergeants- at-arms 10 bay boote@eers and boot legging from the Capitol and office buildings. As matter of fact thev have done nothing of the kind. What they have done is to issue warnings to individual members of the Senate and House to be discreet, with suggestions of how terrible would be the scandal if the truth of the situation in the Cauitol Building should become known.
 Long before constitutional prohibition came in Washington theoretically went dry. But it is due to the sacred cause of truth to say that Washington-at least social Washington-was never wetter than at the present time. One who has knocked about that city more or less in recent weeks may bear witness to the fact that the fluids that tend to cheefulness, not to say exhilaration, were never more plentiful on Washington dinner tables than now. The one hospitable house where it is not in evi-
