TOPEKA PLAINDEALER Historical Society Latin Nouae E The "Chain Gang" Meets! Kansas Odd Fellows Hold Best Session in Lodge's History at Lawrence. VOLUME XIII. Next Week the The "Chain Kansas Odd Fellow sion in Lodg at Law The Grand United Order of Colt Fellows and the Household of Ruth hold then seventeenth annual sessions in Lawrence last week, and it can be safely said that it was the best in the history of these organizations. All claims were paid, leaving a balance of several thousand dollars in the treasury. Much credit is due Grand Master W. W. Shobe, of Salina, for his good, same business methods and keen forewight has certainly elevated the Odd Fellows' department as may be seen by the rapid growth and advancement of the order during the past twelve month. He is young, strong and vigorous and his thorough training in the business world makes him especially fitted to handle the affairs of a growing order like the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows. He enjoys the confidence of the members and his rulings are always accepted because they are fair and impartial. D. D. Hope, of Topeka, the old reliable. will hold the finance of T. H. the order for another year. Mr hope in one of his town's most prominent citizens and white and black will bank on him six days a week and twice on Sunday. He is frank, fair and open in all of his transactions and has contributed as much hard cash and valuable time to boost Negroes and their enterprises as any man in the West Mr. Hope is a good business man and the order showed wisdom in retaining him as treasurer. Mrs. Rebecca Knapper of Kanasa, City, is serving her second term a. J. head of the Household of Ruth and through her influence has increased their policies and met all require- ments. She is one of Kansas City's most active and progressive ladies; loved, honored and respected by both races. All of the present officials were re-elected. P. W. Washam and Mrs. Letitia Carson-Newman are two of the most esteem and capable secretaries that ever served any similar organizations. Their work is neat and accurate and when the minutes are placed into the hands of the printer can be handled without any trouble. The session was concluded with a georgeous street parade and a competitive drill at the hall in the evening. The parade was headed by the Lawrence band followed by Compano No. 105, Topeka and Boys Cadet team under command of Wm Johnson of Topeka and members of the Household of Ruth gounced in beautiful robes and the grand officers. The line of march couered the principal streets and was loudly applauded by the spectators all along the line. The drill at night was witnessed by several hundred people. The team under command of Captain Jackson executed some difficult movements which were roundly applauded. The Cadets No. 105 under command of Captain Johnson executed some pretty movements and scored a tremendous hit. A number of Topekans were in attendance on both the grand sessions and the competitive drill. The Lawrence people were highly elated over the success of the meeting and pray for their return. The Baptists Old Folks' Home. While in Lawrence we visited the old folks Baptist Sunflower home, located three miles west of the city, and managed by Mrs. P. K. Liston, a bright, intelligent lady who is doing much to make the home a success. They have ten acres of splendid land, a seven-room two-story stone house with a good basement. The rooms are nicely furnished—one by the S. W. district and one by the S. E. district and one each by the State Baptist convention, Kaw Valley, Smokey Hill and the K. of P. Grand lodge. There are four old people in the home—two males and two females; Mr. A. Recess, of Chanute, a Mississippi by birth has three children living in Texas. Mr. J. W. M'Coy, of Argentine, was born in East Tennessee. Mrs. Jane Clayborne was born in Virginia and is from Topeka and a member of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor. She is a charter member of Pearly Rose Tabernacle, of Topeka, and says she longs to enter the home purchased by the Taborian Grand lodge some years ago for in which old, worthy members are cared for. She hopes the Lord will spare her to live to enter the home at Topeka, which is now used for that purpose. She is blind, has no relatives and hopes the members will see her in the home soon. Mrs. Fanny Frazier, of Leavenworth, is also an inmate of the home and likes it real well. She has a son, Ben Allen, who resides in Leavenworth. If the Baptists people of Kansas will exercise good judgment, the home can be operated for a mere trifle. They should have a good cow, hogs, a horse and spring wagon, an incubator and one acre of alfalfa. These things can be added at a very small coat. A woman like Mrs. Liston can easily make these things selfsustaining. It is a TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 1911 have this daily bag me when there is enough to put in the bag. I magine it to be a brown bag. I try to throw it much in somewhere which seems to hold the most intended for in home. The sensitive board should course itself and not like too much for graftet. This is a fine home and should be judiciously managed. We drove to the home in an auto mobile in company with William Pasker and wife Mr. Gramson and wife and Mrs. Anderson. The trip was delightful and highly enjoyed by all Topeka's Great Packing Plant. The Chase, Wolff Packing plant is now a wven story building covering several acres of the best land in the West, and the citizens of Topeka and Shawnee county look upon its rapid growth with a feeling of pride. Mr. Lawrence, general manager and superintendent, is well qualified for the position and his equal is hard to find. Mr. Lawrence in a class with the Armou s, Doles and others who have gained fame and fortune in the packing business Charles Whitney has just completed a handsome two story residence for Mr. and Mrs. Dennis Ray at 524 Clay street.

Some of these visitors were official, but many of the most interesting were entirely unofficial and had flocked to London by the lure of the English equivalents of dollars. The amusement resorts in and around London harbored these strangers, and residents and other visitors paid their money to see them. Some of the unusual visitors are shown in the above picture. There is a band of Somalia from Africa, their leader being shown at the right of the line. They are wearing their native garb and are fitted up for war according to the Somali Ideas. The other picture shows a scene in a reproduction of a lace haznaar at Lucknow, India. Laces with threads of real gold were here made and sold. The youthful salesman was one of the attractions of the place, and the expression of his face and his wondering eyes show that he enjoyed looking at the others fully as much as they enjoyed looking at him.

Any Boy Hardy at Carrington Can Do It and Wait For Christmas A book is large enough to hold 100 books, a good amount to an hour and a good amount of younger wheels enough to hold in a rack. A plane weed and then tickle it to lay in the both well to ensure something extra from mother to make Christmas stocking. Here are the rules to follow In the use of all edge tools, if you would avoid cracks and splitting, be patient and do not attempt to remove wood too rapidly, although the tools should be always kept with perfectly sharp edges. There is much marking out to do, and as this must be accurately done a good sharp pencil should always be at hand. In sandpapering it is best to wrap the paper around a block, as the result is more uniform than when the paper is supported by the hand alone. The three shelves, which are identical in every particular, should be smoothly finished, giving particular attention to the ends, as these are visible through the side strips. In order to fit around the four corners of the uprights, the four corners of these must be notched out. These uprights, after having been cut to length, smoothly finished and the corners rubbed down very lightly with sandpaper, should have the location of the shelves marked on them and then have the holes bored for the screws. From half inch wood cut out four brackets of such a length as to fit closely between the two uprights of each end. Six little side strips, measuring one-fourth by one inch, are required, which should be flat on top and pointed at their ends. In assembling make a hole in the corner of each shelf and carefully try END FRONT PLAN OF THE INCLAVE. A PRESENT AND BOY CAN MAKE FOR MOTHILL. the screws so us to make sure that they will not split the shelf when driven home. Place the brackets in position and secure them by glue and a small wire nail at two of the corners. In attaching the side strips use nails with large ornamental heads in the desired finish. To conceal the heads of the screws in front similar nails should be driven in as close to the screws as possible and directly above them. If preferred wooden buttons may be set over the head of each screw and held by means of glue. In order to hang these shelves a small hole should be bored in the upper ends of each of the back uprights. Made From Choice Oklahoma Broom Corn These shelves require the following pieces of dressed lumber. The shelves, three pieces 1 by 91 by 371, back up rights, two pieces 1 by 2 by 35; front uprights, two pieces 1 by 2 by 212; side strips, six pieces 1 by 1 by 212. Poultry Pickings. Eggs should be grided and the small and ill shaped used for cooking purposes. None but the brightest and best should be placed upon the market or used for incubation. Pigeons are becoming more popular and game birds are getting scarce. Pigeons require very little attention when preparations are made for them. Squab raising is profitable when followed intelligently. Why not try a few pigeons? Great care is necessary in collecting eggs intended for incubation. The poultryman should always know the parents of the offspring, and for this reason a record should be kept of both hems and cockerel. This is the only way to breed good fowls. Beginners at poultry keeping tend to overfeed their chickens during the winter-too much grain and too little animal food and green food. Fowls require each of these three kinds of food all the year round in order to keep in vigorous health, and if they are overfed or underfed with either one there is apt to be a loss in vitality that shows itself in diminished egg production. to boom business and fight the beer trust.

A FEW OPEN DATES LEFT. Made From Choice Oklahoma Broom Corn GIVING THE LAMBS AN EARLY START It is very important that the young lambs be started right early in life in order that they may develop rapidly and continuously at a minimum cost, writes an Illinois paper in Farm and Firelife. After the lambs are dropped it is far off place and cannot be used in the farm system. If the stock until the strength of the stock is with the stock The wizard should be kept calm of the other such it had had a little lation on which course and at it could not be large of milk. When the army have been filled in or two wells will be able to arrest it in one corner of the sheep barn or stall and a roth trup will be by the tubs the tubs can gain acess to this pen at all times, while their dares are excluded. Some brain should be put into a though there at first, and in a surprisingly short time the lamb will find their way to it and eat a considerable amount. After they have become accustomed to this SUNSHINE Oxford sheep originated in England in the early part of the nineteenth century from a cross of Cotswold and Hampshire Downs. They have been known since 1857 as Oxfordshire or Oxford Downs and are now widely distributed over the United States and Canada. They are the largest and heaviest of the Down breeds. When in good flash the rams should weigh 250 to 275 pounds and the ewes from 200 to 235 pounds. The wool is rather coarser than any other of the medium wool breeds, and the fleece is heavier, weighing from ten to twelve pounds unwashed. The ram shown was champion at the Iowa state fair last full grain ration a little ground out from which the hulls have been sifted may be added. This, with what clover leaves they will eat if the ewes are fed bright clover hay, will materially hasten their growth, and when they are turned out to grass they will be well started toward shepherd. Where handled judiciously the thirty single limbs of the larger breeds can be made to gain quite or nearly a pound a day for the first few months of their lives. I have often raised limbs that weighed forty pounds when the five or six weeks old and have repeatedly weighed limbs when on grass that were gaining from six to seven pounds a week. But in order to get such gains as this the stock must be handled carefully and be in a thrifty condition. I am confident that a great many farmers and shopmen make a mistake in taking the grain ration from their cows as soon as they are turned to grass. It must be remembered that the change from dry feed to the succulent grass is a great one, and it is very essential that such changes be made gradually and cautiously. Not only should the grain ration be continued at least until the sheep become thoroughly uncustomed to pasture, but the feeding of closer hay should be continued at least once a day for some time after the sheep are turned to grass. Quite often some farmers say that their sheep will not eat the hay after they are turned to grass. But I have found by repeated experiments that they eat a reasonable amount of good closer hay in the early morning with relish. Remember, in making this statement I say "good" closer hay. It is better to confine the sheep in a yard with access to the barn at night, especially during the early spring and the early part of the summer, when storms are so frequent, and feed the hay in the morning and continue the separate grain ration for the lambs until the pasture gets at its best. Potatoes as a Hog Feed. Potatoes as a Hog Reco. The value of potatoes as a hog food has been tested at the Wisconsin evaporation station, where the potatoes were cooked and fed with corn in comparison with corn alone. It was found that it required 112 pounds of potatoes to save 100 pounds of corn. A Danish investigator found that it required 100 pounds of potatoes to save 100 pounds of mixed grain. From these results it seems that 47 bushels of potatoes are worth about the same for feeding purposes as one bushel of corn. They should always be fed cooked. Amount of Grain For Cattle. The amount of grain that should be given to cattle that are being finished on the grass should be gauged by the prospective time for selling and by the condition of the grass. When the animals are to be sold early, as in June or July, more grain or meal should be fed than if marketed later, as in August and September. When the grass is really at its best, which usually is in the advanced weeks of June, grain will not add much to the grains, but it may and doubtless does lead to the consumption of less pasture.

C., to the Topeka State Journal under date of July 25th says: "Dr. William T. Vernon, of Kansas, former registrar of the treasury, is now a special agent of the commissioner of Indian affairs at Washington. Dr. Vernon's duties carry him to all parts of the country where the department requires a special and confidential service rendered affairs of the various tribes of Indians. His headquarters are in Washington and he reports directly to the commissioner of Indian affairs. "The petition held by Dr. Vernon is one of the best paying offices in the Indian service, and considering the short period of time employed in this work he has made good with the department officials, receiving their highest endorsement. "When Dr. Vernon was appointed in the Indian service a short time ago the report was broadcasted that he had been selected as assistant superintendent of schools for the five civilized tribes in Oklahoma. Immediately upon publication of this report the people of Oklahoma made a protest against Vernon's appointment on the ground that he was a colored man. This protest was carried to the White House. The president was quick to advise his callers that they had been mis informed in Dr. Vernon's assignment, that he was not to be assistant superintendent of any schools, but was appointed a confidential inspector of the commissioner of Indian affairs. This seemed satisfactory to the Oklahomaans and the matter was dropped. "While Vernon's present position is not as high in political significance and salary as that of registrar of the treasury, it is at the same time one of the most preferred field jobs in the government service and pays a comparatively good salary, together with a per diem allowance." LIFE AND LABOR Booker T. Washington in "The Outlook There is no part of the Australian Imagine where education is so generally discussed where the city is as well adapted to the actual need of the people. In addition to the ordinary primary schools and the gymnasium (which correspond to our high school) there are several higher institutes of technology which prepare students for industry and commerce. Besides the state schools, there are a large number of industrial schools that are maintained by other private associations. Some of these are located in the small towns and are closely connected with the local industry. Sometimes they are organized by the members of the different trades and crafts as a supplement to the apprenticeship system. For example, in a town where the inhabitants are engaged in the city industry, there will be found schools which give practical courses in the making of vases and crockery. In some of the larger towns commercial and industrial institutions go to them for continuation schools. In these schools who have learned modern work in the elementary schools will be taught work in the arts and crafts and industry of the work. There are also courses in which toys are prepared to work in the sugar making, knowing, not making, and other manufacturing industries. In the two institutes of technology in Dargan, one of which is for laminates and the other for formans courses, in given which program students to be engravers, chemists, mechanical architects, bookkeepers, etc. In connection with these courses there are special departments where students are prepared to be master workmen in such trades as brick laying, carpentry, cabinet making, and stone masonry. There is much in the life and history of the Bohemian people that is especially interesting to a race or a people like the Bohemians that in itself struggling up to a higher and freer level of live and civilization. Up to 1848 the masses of the Bohemian people were held in a condition of serfdom. Until 1867 they were not allowed to emigrate from the country, and where thus held, as are the Russian peasants to day, to a certain degree, prisoners in their own country. Most of the land was in the hands of the nobility, who were the descendants of foreigners who came into the country when it was conquered, a century or more before. Then today, five families own eight per cent of all the land in the kingdom, and one tenth of the population own thirty six per cent of the area of the country. The Imposter and the Catholic Church are also large land owners. One of the effects of this new education and the new life that has come with it has been to make the land hold in larger estates less productive than that which is divided into smaller holdings and cultivated by the men who own it. It was interesting to me to learn that the Bohemians in their own country suffer from some of the same disadvantages as the Negro in the South, for example, the educational fund is divided between the races—the Germans and the Czechs—just as the money for education is divided in the South between the whites and the blacks, but, as is true in the South, it is not divided equally between the races. For example, in the city of Prague there is one gymnasium (school) to every 62,000 Czech inhabitants, while the Germans have one gymnasium for every 20,000 inhabitants. Of what are called the real schools, in which the education is more practical than that of the gymnasium, there is one for every 62,000 Bohemian inhabitants, while the Germans have one for every 10,000 inhabitants. For a number of years past, although the Bohemians represent seventy per cent of the population, they have practiced only a little more than one half of the money appropriated for secondary education, both in the gymnasium and the real schools. The salaries of teachers in the elementary schools range from $155 to $400 per year in the schools in which the German language is taught, however, teachers receive an added bonus for their services. To overcome their disadvantages in this direction the teachers have supplemented the work of the public schools by industrial schools, which are maintained by the contributions of the people in the same way that the Negroes in many parts of the South have supplemented the work of the public schools an order to increase the terms of the school year and to introduce industrial training of various sorts. More than this, the masses of the people in Bolivia are limited and restricted in all their movements in ways of which no one in America who has not passed through the hands of the immigration inspectors at this Island has any comprehension. For example, the people of Austria have had for a number of years freedom of conscience, and, in the city at least, every one is allowed to worship according to his own inclination and convictions. Nevertheless, it seems to be as much a crime in Austria to say anything that could be construed as disrespectful to the Catholic Church as it would be to insult the name of the imperor. I hold a story of a woman who ran a small store in which she was using copies of a Catholic new-paper with which I wrap up articles which I had to her customers. She was warned by the police that it should continue to do this paper for that purpose she would be Hobbit-tainted. Afterwards, I was told that in a store which was wrapped in the paper, she was not told and the things she saw the highest count but the ones she had had to top of upon her head and she was impelled to leave the premises to imprisonment for this offence at once with the greatest likelihood. In a flash, informed me, that she was told in getting permission from the government to establish a branch of Young Men Christian Association in Prague. I myself and some experienced restrictions on what I should before an upper court. I largely go to the court workshop in the law courts of the Young Men's Association No. 10 and I might be part of this court so I am very sorry to the relation to the court.

Mayme Freeman Shane. The news of the death of Mrs. Mayme Freeman Shane, which occurred in Omaha Wednesday of last week, cast a gloom over her numerous friends in Topeka and throughout the state. The deceased is the last of one of the most popular and widely known families in Kannas. Her father the late Mark L. Freeman, was noted as a chef throughout the west. For years he was in charge at the Hotel Copeland in this city, and senators, congressmen and other men of note and position would never think of leaving the Copeland without a friendly chat with "Uncle" Mark. Mrs. Shane's brother, George, also deceased, was known throughout this and the old world and his fame as a cornetist will live for ages. Mayme Freeman was born in Lawrence about forty years ago and removed to Topeka with her parents where she grew to womanhood and was educated in the public schools She was a member of the O. E. S. and filled many positions of honor and trust in the order, among them being secretary of Prince Hall Grand Chapter. She was bright and intelligent and several years ago kept books in this office. Truer, stauncher friend never lived than Mrs. Shane. Gentle of of manner, kind of nature and strong and courageous in defending that which she believed right, characterized her every act and deed and endeared her in the hearts of a wide circle of warm personal friends. Devoted to her husband, loyal to her friends and neighbors and true to her God, marks the final drop of the curtain upon life's stage removing from view a player that had exemplified true love and Christian devotion in the way that God would have her. I have it all ends, and while we feel aggrieved over her untimely demise, we know that those who keep his commandment shall live again. Funeral services were held Sunday morning from Saint John A. M. K. church. Interment in. Omaha cemetery. The Prairie speaker with many friends extends sympathy to her bereaved husband. --- WANTED—The address of a good colored man or woman, of Methodist faith who is a good spiritual preaching and singing evangelist—one who has had two years in winning one's to Christ.

It costs money to make mistakes in pig feeding. The breeding sows should be fed carefully, so that when the pigs are born they may be strong and healthy and in condition to begin a rapid growth. Quick and steady growth from start to finish means economical gains, says the Farm Journal. The returns from growing pigs are so quick that it pays to practice intelligent and up to date methods. Glite the brood sow the most careful, intelligent attention at all times and the battle is more than half won. It is poor economy to neglect the brood sow, as she is one of the most profitable possessions on the farm. Begin to plan now for the pig pastures next summer to insure health and profit for the pigs. Put the hurdles in order so that the pastures can be divided and changed. Keep the pigs on their feet as much as possible hunting for ducklets. HANDLING THE COLT. Kindness and Firmness Make His Education Easy. I have seen colts broken at two years old with whip and main force, but I think my way is best, the way was trained ours, writes C. L. Davis in Farm and Fireside. His training began when he was only one day old, when we freely handled him all over. When a few weeks old he was taught to stand up to a low manger andlick bran out of a trough. Later oats were added, and when we wanted to halter him the halter was laid open on top of the oats. As soon as he stuck his nose in the loop the straps were softly gathered up and buckled, and he was tled. We were careful to use a strong halter, for a coit breaking a weak or old halter will make an incurable halter breaker, unsafe to tie at any time. Every day the colt was taught to lend, to back, go "gee" or "haw" and stop short at "whon!" This was done with含着, an apple or two, and slight taps on ankles with a light switch if he got stubborn. He soon learned to obey the pushes and pulls and kind words. Rough usage, a loud, impatient manner or a whip or big stick will get a colt confused and frightened, and if the trainer loses his temper the colt is likely to be spoiled forever. He should respect his trainer, but not fear him. Whether leading or driving a colt, never let him jerk or break away from you, for once it learns its power it is likely to develop into a runaway. In leading a colt take a short, firm grip on the halter and do not trust old men or children for this work. Every day practice picking up all the colt's feet and tap them lightly with hammer or a stone so that the colt will learn to be shook. Do not in the him strand so long as to get tired and lean on you for support, for a "lenner" is the terror of my blacksmith. When the colt is first worked let it be light work at first, only a few hours, and never, never make him pull to the full of his strength I have seen more young horses trained for life through this one thing than any other. To teach them to stop short when you tell them and don't be willing "who is hot when you want him to go slow, and not stop for sometimes in case of danger you may short who" and they won't stop in time. The great secret of all the colts' education is in variable kindness and trustiness. When you, like him an order make him obey it by repeated trials. When he gets tired of the training or southern simply let him alone until next day. To try to show him "who is master" merely undress all the good you have already done. Oats For Growing Hogs Oats For Growing Hogs. Oats can be fed whole successfully to breeding and growing hogs, but for young hens they are not so good as ground oats from which the hulls have been sifted which in the case of the best foods that can be fed.

STANDARD INSURANCE：COMPANY OLD LINE Home Office, Rucker Building Atlanta, Georgia Legal Reserve has ever been given the investing public---Standard Life Insurance Company. Charter was granted June 24, 1911, by the Secretary of the State of Georgia to 44 of the strongest and most successful business and professional men, for an Old Line Legal Reserve Life Insurance Company with a Capital Stock of $100,000.00 and a Surplus of $40,000.00. ance but he needs and should have the best. The STANDARD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY is the outcome of conditions and the response to the needs which call for an Old Line, Legal-Reserve Life Insurance Company, with the proud distinction of being the first and only Company organized by colored men in accordance with this safe, scientific, and approved method. It is very gratifying and augurs well for the success of the Company to say that before Charter had been granted, applications for stock had been received aggregating nearly $30,000, or practically one-third of the entire capitalization. Some of the best known professional and business men in Georgia and other States all over the South have purchased stock. They realize that a good substantial life insurance company is the kind of investment that makes money. The indications now are that the entire 1,000 shares of stock will be greatly over-subscribed and that the stock will be withdrawn from the market inside of 30 days. It is the plan of the COMPANY to scatter the stock with influential people in limited quantities throughout the entire United States, especially in the States where we plan to begin business, thereby securing a local identification, prestige and influence in each State that we could not otherwise get. The favorable influence of so large a number of persons over such a wide territory practically insures, in our judgment, large dividends on the stock Twenty-one of the many reasons why you should invest in a safe, sound and com Twenty-one of the many reasons why you should invest in a safe, sound and conservative Insurance proposition (12) BLCWSP: The Standard Life Insurance Company will write Industrial, Intermediate as well as the Ordinary Insurance Business. (13) BICMSE. The investment will be safe and sound beyond all doubt whatever. Old Line Insurance has been tested in the "severe school of adversity", and it has given abundant proof of its enduring qualities. No min, unless he be utterly uninformed on current affairs, and particularly of financial affairs, will today question the soundness of the principles upon which such Insurance is based, and the absolute security afforded investors and patrons. (14) BICMSE: Unlike any other commercial organization, the capital stock of a Life Insurance Company can not be impaired, and must be invested in securities prescribed by the State. (15) BECAUSE: The Old Time Companies yield returns to their stockholders that no other busl. ness can equal. STOCK IN THE STANDARD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY IS SURE TO PAY LARGE DIVIDENDS. (16) BECAUSE: The Investments of the Company will be limited largely to Real Estate, Mortgages and loaned in the States and among the people from whom the business comes, and at a low rate of interest. (17) BECAUSE: The stock is being scattered among the most prominent business and professional men, whose influence and prestige and work will give to the Standard Life Insurance Company a large volume of the very best business from their sections—an asset of great value. (18) BECAUSE: The Company has the endorsement of fifteen (15) of the leading Insurance Journals, North, Fast, South and West. Also the hearty endorsement of leading papers in the south. (19) BECAUSE: The Standard Life Insurance Company has collected the interest of a large number of men of reputation and reliability in the business, which means a large and efficient agency force at the very beginning. (20) BECAUSE: We should develop our own great insurance institutions, and thus keep pace with the rest of the world in this as in other great movements. The Standard Life Insurance Company proposes to be a factor in the development of the insurance business of the race and to demand by its inherent merits the confidence and patronage of the insuring public. (21) BECAUSE: The organization will give employment to thousands of our people. Now is the time to buy. A safe and profitable investment and is sold on such terms that every one can buy. The stock of the Standard Life Insurance Company is now for sale on the following terms and conditions: One Hundred and Fifty Dollars a share, par value One Hundred Dollars. Subscriptions to this stock shall be paid 20 per cent in cash, balance in four notes, each for 20 per cent of the purchase price and due respectively in three, six, nine and twelve months from date.

There is nothing indeterminate or haphazard about the business, so conducted, the elecents of chance and risk are entirely eliminated. UNDER THIS PLAN THE STANDARD LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY WILL CONDUCT ITS BUSINESS. Experience and actual computation have produced what is known as THE AMERICAN EXPERIENCE MORTALITY TABLE. Under the Georgia Law all Companies Incorporated under the legal-reserve plan are required to set aside, as a LEGAL-RESERVE fund, at interest, under the supervision of the Insurance Department of the State, such a percentage of each premium as the table shows is required, together with future premiums to meet death losses as they occur. Therefore a new Company operated on this plan is scientifically and conclusively just as safe and secure as the largest Company in the world. No other business has such inherent elements of strength and unusual safe-guards thrown around it by law as the business of life insurance. The colored man has long felt the need of Old Line Legal-Reserve Insurance. His attempts to fill the need have thus far been confined to assessment associations and fraternal orders. Experience has clearly proved that these organizations can not, from an insurance standpoint, be placed on a satisfactory and permanent basis.

Experiments Abroad Show That Plants Love Electricity. There is a field of wheat near Evesham which is like no other field of wheat in England, says the London Graphic. Up north, at Balmakewan, however, there is a field of oats which looks very much like it. On both these fields there are rows of rough telegraph poles, about seventy yards apart and some hundred yards between the rows. On the top of each pole is an insulator ten times the size of those seen on ordinary telegraph poles. The insulators carry the usual telegraph wire, and extended between the rows there are strands of thin wire, fastened to the telegraph wire, about ten yards apart. Very soon there will be a difference, perfectly visible to the passerby, between the part of the crop which is below the wires and the part which is not. The difference is due to discharges of electricity from the curious network. It is connected to a wire which runs to a little shed and from that shed to a dynario at the farm. But it is what happens in the little shed that matters. The current from the dynamo is transformed to high tension and rectified by Sir Oliver Lodge's well known valves. They look rather like glass the extinguisher, and they glow in various tints. There are about twenty one miles of wire on the induction coil. Although it is easy to produce in the shed the lightings and rocklings associated with wireless telegraphy, nothing ordinarily happens but a slight slizzling and a much greater generation of ozone than is pleasant. The field wires are kept running at the high tension of 100,000 volts. Walking below the network bareheaded one feels a sensation as if brushing against spider webs. For five years now this "crop shocking" has been going on. The result seems to have been in the case of wheat at Eresham an increase in crop of from 23 to 30 per cent. Last year the increase was not more than 23 per cent, but the electric discharges had been much weaker than in previous years. At Ralmakewan there has been a marked difference in oats. Experiments have also been conducted with strawberries and tomatoes at Everham, again with encouraging results as to yield. Of you the experiment strawberries were found to be much sweeter than usual. Any one who has a dynamo or access to an electric cable could begin experiments in electricity can be two-five and ten minutes an expediture of about two to deal with sixty nets the exact amount would be about $1000. Any one who should then does is to drive the glint in a kind of electricity. That is Sir Oliver J. L. Smith. The discharge are not needed on the sunny days. But in dull weather they take the place of sunshine. Of course the whole problem of the nutrition of plants is obscure. It is perfectly clear that this discharge of high tension electricity has done something to the crops treated, but what exactly is in some doubt. So far there is no evidence of shocked plants suffering from premature exhaustion due to overwork. Indeed, there is some reason for believing that the effect of electrification is to give the plant tone and go. An American worker has shown that electrical discharges help the microorganisms of the soil, so electrification may be doing something in that direction too.

Importance of Proper Care in Washing and Packing Far too much of our butter is spolled after it has gathered in the churn, says a dairyman in the Farm Progress. The greatest skill of the buttermaker is called for in removing it and working it into salable form without destroying its texture, firmness and sometimes its Gavor. Washing with pure cold water while still in the churn before the granules have become molded together is by all means preferable. The old rule that the buttermilk should be drawn when the granules of butter are the size of wheat grains is a good one. No wash water should be added until the buttermilk is first drawn away. Then an amount of cold, clean water equivalent to the amount of buttermilk drawn should be added and the churn revolved a few times. If the water is cold enough the butter may be worked more vigorously until it begins to achieve in large lumps. Then draw on the water and add the salt in the churn. Where the larger power churns are used selling in the churn is the best practice but in home buttermaking in small quantities much better results can be obtained by salt ing the butter upon the worker. Some buttermakers work the product immediately upon removing it from # There are many lovers of Devon cattle in New England. Among these is J. W. Simborn of Merrimack county, N. 11. Pictured is one of his Devon cows which won honors at the Vermont state fair in 1908. While Devons are not expected to produce large quantities of milk, there are strains of this breed which are really good milkers, and the product tests high in solids. It is doubtful if any breed can produce better oxen than Devons. Their quiet disposition and intelligence win friends wherever they go. the churn, but better results can be obtained if, after a slight working, the butter is placed in a cold room to allow the salt to dissolve and the whole mass to cool so that it will not become oily when put into the prints. One pound prints are still the most popular, although some creameries have endeavored to introduce a two pound print with some success. The brick mold is much to be preferred to any of the round or oval molds. Brick butter can be packed closely in a cooler and also lends advantage to wrapping in parchment paper. Printed parchment wrappers bearing the name of the maker of the butter are a great advertising feature and add to the appearance of the product. It is an important point in a local butter trade. Parchment paper should be used in lining tubes where large quantities of butter are made. Fooling the Balker When a horse balks do not whip, accold or quarrel with it. "Speak gently." Do patient Take time Go to the bite. Paten a strap around one front leg between the hoof and fetlock and tie the foot up to the hames or hold it up, as the case may be, compelling the horse to stand on three legs while it rests. Resting will very soon become more irksome than going. But with kindly "whons" and the continual holding by the bit compel the horse to stand until thoroughly anxious to go, which will not be long, when the foot should be let down and the animal allowed to go. Repeat the process as often as the occasion demands, increasing rather than diminishing the time of the restraint.—Farm and Fireside.

As It is essential that the calf have plenty of exercise for the development of bone and muscle, and if a yard or paddock is provided in which the calf can run and play it will get all the exercise it needs. It is natural for all young stock to run and gallop about as soon as they have received strength enough to do so, and it is best never to keep them closely confined. ally add skimmilk with a very little fine middlings until the ration is entirely of skimmilk with a grain ration of equal parts by weight of fine middlings, oilmeal and cornmeal ground very fine. I have found calf meal to be an excellent substitute for milk and grain, as it takes the place of both. Above all things, do not overfeed the calf, as the calf's stomach until it is two months old is very susceptible to all sorts of derangements from sudden change of diet or overfeeding. When the calf is about two weeks old keep lay where it can nibble at it at leisure, and the youngster will soon learn to eat it, and it will tend to keep the calf's stomach and digestive organs in a healthy condition Do not be in too great a hurry to turn the calf out to grass in the spring, writes a Kentucky dairy man in Farm Progress. She should not be allowed to eat her fill of grass until she is five or six months old. The first year of a calf's life is the making of the cow. All the utensils from which the calf eats should be kept as clean as possible, especially the vessel in which milk is provided. Clean feeding pails, clean quarters, plenty of sunlight, fresh air and pasturage as soon as the grass has reached the stage when it will not be injurious to the calf will insure gratifying success. Calves need water, but while they are given milk they may refuse water, even when thirsty, because it is tasteless and probably cold and they are expecting warm milk to molsten their throats. If shortly before feeding time the calf is offered milk warm water from the same recessel that it is in the habit of drinking milk from it will drink readily. Do not feed milk immediately after the water. Condition of Breeding Ewe. Every flock owner of long experience in handling breeding ewes fully realizes that the condition of ewes at mating has a decided influence upon the breeding qualities of both ewes and progeny. Horse Notes. Blanket them warmly and do not allow them to stand uncovered in the wind. Keep the mud clenched off the horses' legs and they won't have cracked heels. Do not nag at your horse. The constant clicking spolls a horse and is a nuisance in a crowd. The pure bred draft breeding mare will do as much work as a grade, and her colt will be worth much more. Balking is inexcusable and is always the fault of the driver, not of the horse. It is the direct result of bad management. Clip the heavy coated horses now, as the hair begins to loosen. Brush them thoroughly every day from head to heels and note the improvement in condition. It will pay any farmer of good judgment and intelligence to raise high grade or pure bred draft colts, says the Farm Journal. One important requisite is that they should be good feeders. It isn't a good plan to hang anything up in the stall where horses are kept, even if the nails or hooks are high above them. Colts are particularly apt to be scared if such things drop on them, as they are likely to do, and so be made skittish. HOUGHTON'S DEPARTMENT STORE. Goyle, Okla.
