TOPEKA PLAINDEALER COURT PLEADS TO JURORS FOR NEGRO THE Fifteenth year. No. 42. Judge Rosalsky in His Charge to Jury Denounces Color Prejudice and Ask That TheyBe Fair and Impartial to Black. New York City, N. Y.—In charging the jury in the case of Walter Brown colored, who was on trial in the Court of General Session, charged with assault for having defended himself in a race riot which recently occurred at Lexox avenue and 112d street. Judge O. A. Rosalsky branded race prejudice as degrading and harmful, and in his plea to the white jurors for a verdict based solely on the evidence, he said in part: "Gentlemen of the jury, it is the duty of the jurors who are to pass upon an issue involving the liberty of a human being, to emancipate themselves from every form of bigotry, insultance and prejudice that might have a tendency to warp then judgment. It is essential for the orderly administration of justice that a man who serves as a juror should free himself from passion, prejudice and sympathy. If a juror permits either passion or sympathy to warp his judgment, then he is likely to do an injustice both to the state and the accou "The state never seeks vengeance. The law aims at the truth, and the truth can only be ascertained by jurors weighing, scrutinizing and analyzing the facts presented, without permitting any extraneous matter to as engage their attention as to prevent them from doing their duty fearlessly, honestly and impartially. When we permit either prejudice or sympathy to control our reasoning faculties then we do not view things in the light in which they should be viewed, and it is therefore important to hear in mind that when a person is on trial, where his liberty is involved, the jurors should, as judges, act solely and wholly upon the proofs presented. Of all forms of prejudice, there is none that is so degrading or harmful, or destructive and subversive of our institutions as that form of prejudice which moves or teaches a human being to hate another because of his race, color or condition. We are living in an age where every effort should be made on the part of the citizens of this great country to preach those ideals, and we must preach those sentiments of universal charity and brotherly love in order to make our great and glorious country prosperous. We must recognize all men as brothers no matter where they may have come from or under what skies, institution or religion they may live. You must bear in mind that the path of opportunity in this great country of ours is closed to no one, and today, while the white man predominates, the colored man might tomorrow, and under our system of justice, the colored man might sit in judgment over the white man tomorrow. Therefore in a court of law we must know neither friend nor foe; nor man's condition nor man's religion. In the eye of the law the greatest benefactor of the community, or its lowliest and most abject citizen, when brought to the bar of justice, is entitled to have a fair and impartial trial. Therefore I impress upon you that whatever verdict you render in this case, it should be a verdict based solely upon the evidence presented, and no outside consideration should move you to do aught but what your conscience honestly dictates, and then justice will be done, both to the people and to the defendant." He is a true American jurist. Would that one-third were like him. MITCHELL VISITS BOSTON John Mitchell, of Richmond, Va. editor and banker attended the bankers meeting in Boston, and we note below how royal he was treated. Mr. Mitchell is no "pho'ny", but a genuine banker and the only man of color holding a membership in the American Bankers Association. In his paper, the Richmond Planet he says: The reception room, and corridors were crowded with bankers and their ladies. The wealth of the United States was assembled. I entered the registration room. A dozen white lady stenographers were ready to render service. "Do you wish to register?" was the enquiry. I answered in the affirmative and I passed my card to her "Take this to the clerk at the desk, please." I did so. So heavy had been the demand that the first supply of invitations for the guests had been exhausted. I looked down the long palatial room and I saw a banker with two other friends regarding me with smiling interest. I waved to him. It was President Oliver J. Sands of the American National Bank of Richmond. "In a short while a supply of invitations had come and one was passed to me. I put on the badge of the American Bankers' Association, felt at ease and then stalled for Young's Hotel in the business section where I had bee; assigned by the Hotel Committee of the American Bankers' Association. A liveried white attendant stood in the doorway. I entered. The clerk at the desk examined the records and after a slight delay shoved the hotel register to me and I was duly installed in this comfortable hostelry." COLORED WAITERS COMING BACK. There seems to be a general movement among the hotelies of the country—North, East, South and West—to re-employ colored waiters. Just what we predicted some time ago, we firmly believe this is only a part of the general movement now on foot to recognize the colored man, as he is—the finest waiter in the world. News comes from Saint Louis that the white union waiters employed at the Planters, Jefferson, American and Marquette Hotels were dismissed last Saturday and their places were filled on Sunday by colored men. The same thing happened the week before at another of the great St. Louis hotels, The Maryland. At the same time the great Emerson Hotel in Baltimore dismissed its imported French chefs and employed colored chefs on the excuse that the French could not cook fried chicken a la Maryland. Only a few motmhs ago the Rennsalaer Hotel ir Albany, the Hotel Champlin at Lake George and several hotels scattered throughout this state did the same thing by their waiters. It has not been so much because of a rebuke THE NEW YORKER THE NEW YORKER REV, E. ARLINGTON WILSON, Retiring President of the Kansas Baptist, State Convention, who relinquishes the honor only because of his departure from the state. He Retiring President of the Kan relinquishes the honor only because TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING OCTOBER 18, 1913. to the unions as it has been a compliment to the colored servant. There are some vocation in which mechanical and organized skill cannot succeed, and this is true in the occupation of waiting on table and cooking food. There the human element enters in a larger degree than in the building of houses, than in the counting rooms of trust companies, than the selling of merchandise or in the process of factories. When men dine, they would be pleased at their meals. When hotel men cater to the pleasure of men who live and drive away from home, they find it impractical to how to the dictates of the union and to the caprices of strike-making walking delegates. While the colored man cannot essay the comic shrugs and grimaces of the French serving man, nor the stilted and austere clarity of the English lackey, his domesticity, his agreeable disposition, his ease, his grace and his natural aptitude for waiting on table, his disinclination to strike, make him, as the hotels are beginning to recognize, the superior of them all—Amsterdam (N. Y.) News. Now that the colored waiter is coming back, we hope to see them put their attings into propositions that will do themselves and the communities in which they reside some good Heretofore, the boys have been too much inclined to sport and a good time, but they must abandon this idea and get down to business. BAPTIST CONVENTION Kansas City Gathering One of Profit and Pleasure. The twenty-second annual session of the Kansas Baptist State Convention and the Woman's Home and Foreign Mission Convention on convened at the Pleasant Green Baptist church, Rev. Geo McNeal, pastor, o Tuesday of last week. Mrs. Emma Gaine, of Topeka, presided over the Woman's department from Tuesday to Wednesday evening, and her co-workers brought in about $400.00. Rev. E. Arlington Wilson then proceeded with the State convention work, coming from the different districts of the state. He presided with that dignity and honor becoming the position and way fair to all in his decisions and rulings. The Denominational sermon was preached by Rev. G. W. Burdette of Leavenworth, the Missionary sermon by Rev. J. H. Van Leu of Wichita, the Educational address by Prof. W. R. Carter of the Topeka Industrial and Educational Institute of Topeka, the Educational sermon by Rev. F. I. Hammonds of Chanute. Each day's program consisted of ten or fifteen in- THE NEW YORKER was Baptist, State Convention, who of his departure from the state. He OCT 17 teresting features, interspired with good social musical solutions. The election of officers came on Friday afternoon and it was very sprited. Rev. Wilson having given his farewell address on the night previous, and having resigned as the presiding officer of the Convention, a position held for many years, Rev. W. A Bowen, B. A., of Kansas City, Kans. who delivered such a fine introductory sermon, was elected to preside over the 2000 Baptists of the state. Rev. A. G. Fishback of Topeka, was re-elected as corresponding secretary, and Mr. J. E. Lewis of Wichita, was re-elected recording secretary. Mrs. Emma Games of Topekn, was re-elected as president of the woman's Convention a position, which she has held for several years. Mr. H. I. Monitor of Topeka con- fist Baptist church! ducted the Sunday school session. At 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon was held a Missionary Mass meeting at the First Baptist church, and Rev. G. G. Pishback, field secretary of the National Baptist Convention, made an earnest appeal for Missions, Rev. Purde of Central America, and the first short graduate from Oxford, England, considered the finest college in the world, made a most intelligent and ample talk about how the Baptist faith was introduced into the West Indies by Revs. Nye and Baker of Savannah, Gt. the choir under the direction of Prof. Reynolds sang the anthem, "Peace Be Still," very impressively. A pleasing feature of the Sunday session at the First Baptist church was the installation of the new officers by Rev. E. Arlington Wilson. At night at Pleasant Green church Rev. Wilson preached his farewell sermon to the delegates and messengers and friends. The choir, with its efficient punisher, sang nicely. One of a committee of Rev. Wilson's ever abiding friends presented him with a fine morocco vase, and a life painting of himself, Mr. Robert E. Bell of Topchka, being the artist. Mrs. Emma Games, representing the friends of Mrs. Wilson, gave her a gold necklace and a gold breastpin was also sent to Mrs. W. L. Grant for her faithful services as secretary. Mrs. G. C. Harris, of the Southwestern District, was given a gold medal for bringing in the most money. The Constitution raised over $3,000.00. Some of the delegates to the State Convention of Baptists, as far as we could ascentally were; Rev. W. P. Banks of Salma; Rev. A. W. Ross of Leavenworth; Rev. J. T. Elias of Pittsburg; Rev. E. T. Fishback of Wichita; Rev. N. J. Stokes, Rev. C. Teal of Independence; Rev. B. J. Bell of Ottawa; Rev. R. January of Frankfort; Rev. W. W. Russell of Topeka; Mrs. H. P. Frazier of Wichita; Mrs. J.

Tuan, Cagayan, P. I., Aug 22, '13. My Dear Mr. Chiles: For welcome letter received some time ago and read with much interest. We are always glad to hear from you and to get a copy of your interesting little paper, which always contains a battle- ax stroke at vice and the demon prejudice. I must apologize for my long delay in replying and assure you that it will not be the case again. We keep so busy with our school work that we hardly have time to write to home folks, but shall try to keep more in touch from now on. I suppose you have read many articles on Philippine independence and when they will be ready, etc. My belief is that the people are not prepared to take all the responsibilities of self government upon themselves nor do the majority of patriotic people really desire it, but they have heard and seen so much of the white man's prejudice and of his treatment of colored races, they have come to choose self government or destruction rather than suffer the humiliations handed out to other colored races who have come in contact or under the domain of American whites. Your anxiety about Japan is timely. Every one who has studied the strained conditions, existing between Japan and the United States, know that sooner or later something is going to take place (the friendly relation stories that go out now and then notwithstanding.) The Japanese are not ostentatious nor boastful but carry a resentment as deep down in their hearts as any other race or people and like a character in Shakespeare "Can smile and murder while they smile." It is to the interest of the black or any other race for that matter, to get on friendly terms with the Japanese, for when they strike they will not be alone not emptyhanded. All America South of the Mexican border and all the Orient with the exception of Australia are with them. The United States was and is still in a position to become the greatest world power ever known. She is nearer to the hearts of the Orientals, notwithstanding the jabs they have given some of its citizens, and the careless manner in which she has promoted or encouraged friendship, than any other nation, but by allowing the advocates of white supremacy and the doctrine of white superiority control of our papers and pulpits, her hopes diminishing as shadows disappearing at noonday, while a reference to America's freedom and liberty causes a hearty laugh. Thus as the darker races of the earth become more acquainted with the noble (?) Americans, their influence over them lessens and unless the United States stamps out at once and forever the damnable prejudice that is so prevelant everywhere within its borders, she is surely doomed to decay and destruction. Can any sane man outside of America fail to see the discontent of the Black man, the Brown, the Red or, the Yellow and the White man himself, who have all been loyal and friendly to the Stars and Stripe for centuries? The cancer prejudice has destroyed that inspiring patriotic feeling once so omnipresent. Like a redhot rod held in the hand, it destroys the hand that holds it as well as object upon or into which it is thrust. We all yearn to hear "My Country" sung with that glorious feeling, "Sung as you used to sing it, twenty thousands strong." Can anyone fail to see the results of mob rule? Paternal influence has abandoned its abode in the old American home; love and pity have flown; mother's voice that was once so tender and listened to with a heart full of ropentence and eyes filled with tears, has become hoarse in yelling for woman's votes or in lynching bees and is seldom heard or heeded at home; wife's words of sympathy for the down trodden and oppressed are filled and in their stead come vulgar hysterical women suffer- nate Negrofobia, and there a hand upon the hot-headed son or bro- stay him a moment Price $1.50 Per Year. to reflect that every black face in the vicinity of crime, may not be a Negro's; every woman who yells "rape" may not larn the title of Lady, nor is it always certain that anything other than an overt act has been committed. "Those arms that used to be thrust about the husband's or father's neck as he left for the voting place, strengthened in persuasive power by a loving kiss and a pact "Vote for so and so, John," are wanting now on election days, and hatthets, posters, and hosteousness are everywhere to create disgust and disregard rather than cooperation for the desiess of womanhood, all going to show that the United States is decaying rapidly and is being eaten up with cancers within; but as gloomy as the picture looks there is yet hope, for redemption; we can yet make the "Star Spangled Banner" be an inspiration to the world and be sung from the hearts of her millions of subjects; she can yet make "My Country 'Tis of Thee, Sweet Land of Liberty" a song which no countryman need be ashamed of singing whether in Africa, Japan or the Philippines; she can yet let the world know that the sentiments of Vardaman, Please, etc. are dead and that those of Lincoln, Jefferson and Garrison still live and are fresh in the hearts of our countrymen. America! so great in construction; so great in science; so great as a peace advocate! Why should prejudice ruin our great domain? Let us hope that soon every American will resolve to crush this cruel destructive monster and open the doors of opportunity to all. Let equal rights to all, special privileges to none be our motto, regardless of creed or color or clame. Let us all boast and brag of the great race to which we belong, the greatest race in all God's creation—the human race. Regarding the lectures you spoke of, I shall be glad to do or say anything I can if I can only be of some service. I shall perhaps visit the U. S. sometime during the Panama Exposition. When you write of Japanese do not use "Jap" they do not like that any more than you do "nigger." FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY YEAR OF FREEDOM. Editor Plaindealer: As you know, this is the Fiftieth Anniversary Year of freedom. I very much hope that there may be a general disposition on the part of our people everywhere to fittingly celebrate this occasion. Some time ago, you may remember, I published the statement which follows with reference to this matter, and leg again to bring it to your attention. What I wrote at that time was to this effect: After consultation with a number of the leading men and women of our race, I have taken upon myself the responsibility of asking our people to devote the week of October 19 to 26 to the celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of our freedom. Something has already been done, however, in several parts of the country, towards carrying into effect the plan already suggested for local celebrations. In order that these various local celebrations may be carried out harmoniously and in such a way that each local celebration will contribute to a national total, the following recommendations are submitted: (1) That October 19-26, 1913, be known as Fiftieth Anniversary Week. (2) That schools, churches and all other societies and organizations in every part of the United States, where there is a considerable number of our people, unite and co-operate for the purpose of holding local celebrations that shall recite our progress in commercial, professional, intellectual, moral, and religious directions. An effort should be made to secure the strongest and most representative men obtainable as speakers. It is my earnest hope and desire that the above suggestions be read before the various churches, lodges, and other organizations of our people, to the end that the Fifthth Anniversary Week of Freedom shall be generally observed everywhere. We must depend of course, upon our newspapers to bring this matter to the attention of the colored people if any large number of them is to be reached. I very much hope you will heartily co-operate with, and give full publicity to this effort. (Signed) Booker T. Washington. Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Oct 11, '13.

NEW TARIFF LAW WILL MAKE MANY RATE REDUCTIONS Synopsis of Measure on Which Special Session of Congress Has Been Working. MARKED CHANGES IN THE AVERAGE DUTIES Democrate Confident That the Country Will Be Benefited by the Alterations, and That Business Will Remain Unaffected — Ad Valorem Rate In the Bill Is From 27 to 29 Per Cent., in Payne Aldrich Bill They Are 40.12 Per Cent. Washington — The Democratic tariff revision bill, first on the program on reforms mapped out when President Wilson came into office, advanced to its last congressional stage when it was brought back to the house from the joint conference committee with the unanticipated indorsement of the Democratic conference The measure, of course, has both its friends and enemies. According to the administration, it carries out four of the party promises. Tariff reform, reduction in the high cost of living, campaign against the trusts, in that duties have been taken off of many trust made article, and the income tax. The measure, consequently, has a larger importance than that of a mere tariff reform bill, and its effect must be widespread, both on business and industry, and also in connection with politics. Democratic leaders are confident that business will suffer no untoward effect, that consumers will be benefited. Changes in the Rates. The bill imposes an average ad valorem rate of from 27 to 29 per cent. The average for the present Aldrich law is 40.12 per cent. The average for the Wilson Gorman act was 39.45 per cent. Duties generally have been reduced on all of the articles that enter into the necessaries of life, including the products of the farm as well as manufactured products. Trust made products in many cases have been transferred to the free list or the duties at present imposed have been substantially reduced. The income tax feature of the bill is expected to net some $10,000 and it will call for a tax on net incomes of unmarried persons of $1,000 and upwards and on net incomes of married persons living together, where the wife or husband is dependent, of $1,000 and upwards. Experts' estimates indicate a surplus of $16,000,000 over all expenditures at the end of the present fiscal year. A rate of 40 per cent is imposed on stockings and half hoes valued at more than 70 cents a dozen pairs. For stockings between 70 and $1,20 a dozen pairs a duty of 40 per cent was agreed upon. The conference eliminated the provision inserted by the senate denying entry into the American market of goods manufactured by children under 14 years of age. The final agreement provided that any person employed to collect the income tax may be utilized by the secretary of the treasury in the general service of the internal revenue bureau Larger Customs Revenues. "The customs revenues will be larger for the current year, 1914." Senator Simmons said, "because the rates of the Payne-Midland law have been for the force quarter, and will continue in force on wool and woolen goods until January 1, and on sugar until March 1. When the next fiscal year begins, July 1, 1914, all the rates of the new law will be in operation and the tariff duties collected will be smaller. The income tax which is collected for the calendar year can be collected for only ten months of the present year as the tax specified that collection shall not go back of March 1, 1914. The estimated revenue in the total expenditure of the government for 1914 ($5,000,000) is based on the total tax smaller expenditures are expected for the army and navy estimates. I am aware of the total restrictions as set in the Treasury estimates, in made out of public receipts, internal reserves receipts, the grants from the federal funds and other sources of Agriculture' Products and Provisions Letters, allowances and other interim income available for the use, food, wheat and meat products and eggs, have been transferred to the free list. Reductions have been made on oats, butter, beets, frozen eggs, peas, greenhouse stock, zante currants, chocolate and corona sweetened and extracts of meats from the rates provided by the house. The rates have been increased over those provided by the house on broken rice, fish packed in oil and ground spices. A rate of 20 per cent ad valorem is placed on ground spices in addition to the specific rate provided by the house on unground. The senate receded from the reduced rate placed on flaxseed and its amendment placing a duty on bananas. The house classification on lemons and other citrus fruits is accepted. Schedule H, Spirits, Wines and Other Schedule 15, Spirits, Wines and Other. No change of importance are made in this schedule. The rates on ginger ale and similar beverages are slightly decreased on bottles containing not more than one half pint each. The note recoded from its amend ment placing an internal revenue tax on grape brand) used in fortifying sweet wines. Papers and Books. The house rates have been reduced on common paper, box, boards, papers patted covered with metal leaf or gelatine and plain basic papers for albumizing for photographic printing. The rates provided by the house for surface coated papers suitable for covering boxes has been increased from 35 to 40 per cent. The Senate amendments placing specific rates graduated according to thickness and size have been agreed to with several reductions in the rates provided. The rates agreed to are approximately equivalent to the ad valorem rates provided in the house bill. A specific rate has been placed on lithographic views of scenes and buildings located in the United States instead of the ad valorem rate provided by the house. This amendment results in an increase in the rate of duty. Roman, Portland and other hydraulic cements, limestone, rock asphalt, asphaltum and bitumen have been transferred to the free list. The house rates have been reduced on lenses, surveying instruments, telescopes, microscopes, photographie and projection lenses, in increased on strips of glass for lenses and gauges, opera and field glasses. A new classification has been made for unmanufactured mica and a rate of 4 cents per pound placed on all valued at not more than 15 cents per pound, and 25 per cent on that valued at more than 15 cents. This results in an increase over the house rate of 10 per cent on the cheap glass of mica, costing less than 14 cents, and a reduction of all that is valued at more than 15 cents per pound. Cotton Manufactures. The senate classification of cotton cloth, according to the average number of the yarns contained therein, was accepted, instead of the house provision for the highest number. This slightly decreases the rate of some fancy weaves and novelty cloth, but on the greater bulk of cotton cloth the rate is not affected. The rates of cloched and dried colored yarns are increased and on cotton yarns and cotton made of yarn, from numbers 78 to 90. The rates on handkerchiefs of rollers not hemmed, have been deferred from 90 per cent, as provided by the house, to 25 per cent. HORTON, KANSAS. Rev. G. C. Calloway, of pleasant Hill, Mo., preached two able sermons Sunday at the Second Baptist church The church would make a wise selection if they secure his services.

The counts in Shawnee county have become so rotten that it is very much cheaper to go out and shoot a familed every time it is to sell a friend a drink of liquor. All one has to do is lay in wait for a human target, cross down him with a "11" and if the first shot doesn't kill, follow up the firing victim and puncture his hide again, and when the body lies prostrate, welcoming in its life's blood, take a third shot to "sure work", and then go to set up a chain of self-defence and the county attorney will refuse to prosecute you, in fact, set himself up as a witness for you and leave the prosecution (?) in the hands of a movie, who evidently knows as much about law as a western hawaiian jackrabbit; but if you sell a friend a drink of liquor, all the shields in the mill of justice (or in fact) begin to grind and what is dealt out is a horrible example to the world. We publish in this issue of The Plainteacher the instructions of Judge Rasalsky of New York to a jury trying a colored man for a crime where provided a passion would likely not dominate.

A correspondent of the Kansas Farmer says that paper places undue importance upon the necessity of sheltering farm implements and that the cost of lumber and interest on the investment in a machinery shop is greater than the depreciation on implements as a result of exposure. The paper replied: The average 100 were farm is regarded as having $100 invested in farm machinery, including wagons and buggies. It is our judgment that the average Kansas farm has over $100 invested. We are confident that the depreciation on farm equipment when exposed to the storms is not less than 10 per cent per year. We are inclined to the left that it is 20 per cent per year. We know that a 20 per cent depreciation will imply to least a part of the equipment "The more equipment exposed to the weather the larger the depreciation in dollars and cents. One hundred dollars will cost a first class machinery shop. If $10 is not available $50 will cost a steel sufficiently large to house in a very satisfactory manner $100 to $150 worth of machinery. The $50 steel will be smaller than the $100 steel and its use will require somepling of machinery. "This, however, can be done with no cash outlay and with little outlay of time and labor. If the depreciation on the shed isn't 5 per cent per year and the interest on the investment is 5 or 8 per cent per year there is still a considerable amount in favor of saving the 10 per cent or minimum depreciation on the machinery. "It does not seem possible that a while awake farmer would argue against the advantages of good machinery care, even though it is impossible for him to provide a machine shed." FLOUR BARREL COOP.

If you are food to a middleman, who sells it to the consumer and the real person to be deposited to you an extent to be made aware in the consumer, then you cannot take the consumer for the damage to his teeth. This is the choice of Judge Novos in the federal court in New York. A written contract should be drawn, and signed by both the landowner and the renter when a mutual agreement is consummated. This may avoid a misunderstanding and prevent trouble. An oral contract should be as binding as a written agreement, but the oral contract may be forgotten or its stipulations not fully understood.

Mr. Burke was the most framed man in the force by contests, bounties, crap-shoots, street walkers, etc., and to dismiss him I know that it was were too severe in meeting with that class and at the administration is trying to "cause up." We have always regard Mr. Maguil Colton as being equal and dead against the class who we have heard to fear Mr. Burke, and have worked so sturdy for his novel, and through a sworn utterance from a known police officer—a woman who has cases against her in the courts today, they have coded to "getting Burke" goat. On this class maline decent, reptile citizens, and receive the Oaks of the Mayo? We think not, and, or Mayo, in looks rather to matter, we believe along with a host of citizens, who want the laws rigidly enforced, that he will reinstate Mr. Burke. The Plaindealer was truthfully say that Mr. Larker wrote the eleventh and twelfth letters that ever walked in front in the section of the city. He is able and always on the job. The prose was a tribute to those who could be brave and law in this section of the city and they sought distress when the subject thereof was sound or was watched so closely.

They're Fine With Gravy-Here's How You May Grow a Crop. Plant a few sweet potatoes in your garden this spring. They aren't hard to grow, and what is richer to eat than brown sweet potatoes with grass? Besides, this vine is very ornamental, and its thick, dark foliage helps to make your vegetable garden more attractive. Sweet potatoes are grown by means of sets or sprouts which grow from the root buds. It is best to get them from seed growers or gardeners. They require warm, moderately rich, sandy land. If the land is too fertile there will be a large growth of top at the expense of the root. The plants may be set out from the middle of May until the last of July or after the late frosts are over. The potatoes may be grown on the level but a ridge usually is preferred in the garden ridging may be done with a low mucking the ridge about eighteen inches broad and six inches high. The rows should be from three and a half to four feet apart. But the plants along the center of the ridge they should be about two feet apart and if the soil is moist it is only necessary to dip the roots in water before settling. But it is unusually dry at this time it will be advantageous to sprinkle the plants occasionally. When the plants are small they should be cultivated often enough to kill the weeds and keep a mellow surface later on the vines themselves will cover the ground; then cultivation is impracticable as well as undesirable. After the vines are too large to cultivate they should be lifted occasionally or they are likely to take root at the joints and keep on forming more vines with no roots in the hill large enough for use. The vines should be lifted once a week. Every vine should be loose from hill to tip. This lifting may be done very rapidly with a pitchfork, but some care must be taken—luxurious industrialist. FOLKS OUT. STOCK IN. Here's a Simple Gate That Will Help to Solve the Problem. It is often inconvenient to pause and unlatch and then latch a gate between the barnyard or some other place where stock is kept and the garden or a field from which it is desired to keep animals away. To obviate such difficulties the plan illustrated will be found very convenient. As will be seen, the fence is made to end at two stout posts, be ```markdown ``` tween which is a rather larger opening than is usually allowed for a footpath gate. From one of these posts the darling lines of fence are built to posts so as to form a V shaped opening, each ending at a post. On the other large line post is hung the gate, which swings each way and either comes against the V shaped sides when pushed or may continue so as to strike the smaller posts. In either case animals cannot get past, and yet the gate is always open for human beings — American Agriculturist. The old English farmers put their advice about keeping barnyard manure into two lines: Keep it moist and tread it tight. And it will well your care requita. That is pretty much the whole story.—Rural New Yorker. FARMING WITH BRAINS. Never venture upon an old bridge with team or machinery without seeing that it is firm and safe for heavy weights. If the fertility of the soil is to be maintained it must be supplied with vegetable matter. Turn under cover crops and increase the humna supply. According to the Iowa Press bulletin No 12, sodium arsenite is the only chemical that will entirely destroy the Canada thistle. It is applied at the rate of one and a half pounds to fifty-two gallons of water. Do not expect the hired man to feel satisfied if you leave him alone with all the chores while you are away visiting unless you are willing to do the same for him occasionally. Hired men are born in beings and will, as a rule, appraise little treatment. A soil that dikes out quickly, is loose and sandy and reaches in also in poor physical condition from too little water and organic matter. Where gratification is practicable this is advisable, photos of moisture, green manure, timing it there is sourness and thorough and persistent cultivation. Mrs. M. A. Sanders and Mrs. E. L. Ross made a flying trip to Okmulgee last Saturday. Mrs. Minnie Grayson and Miss Cora Galloway have returned from the fair at Okmulgee.

WEALTH IN MIDDLE WEST Investigations by Commissioner of Internal Revenue Reveal Large Fortunes There. The commissioner of internal revenue made public the estimate on he comes for the middle west. These estimates show that far more wealth is distributed in Illinois outside of Chicago than in the city. The commissioner of internal revenue is inclined to believe the reports are so far from correct that he will not use them in any extent in his plans for the collection of the income tax. According to his statement, 12,000 citizens of Chicago have income taxing from $7,000 to $20,000 per year, while 12,000 citizens of the Eighth district, which has its head quarters in Springfield have income within this scope. Only 5,000 individuals in the Fifth district with head quarters at Peoria, are listed. Likewise in Indiana there is a great variance in districts. The collector for the Sixth district reported over 20,000 taxable income, and the collector for the Seventh district reported only 6,000. Iowa's incomes will be largely taxed the collector for that state reporting nearly 17,000 taxable fortunes. Wisconsin has a few over 10,000, Michigan, close to 12,000, and Minnesota about 10,000. A feature about the Minnesota in come estimate is that the collector or closes there are 150 men in the state with incomes upwards of $100,000 annually, while in Chicago the collector reported only 15 persons with incomes above the $100,000 mark. Large fortunes seem to predominate in Minnesota for there are 14,000 mer- rated with incomes between $2,000 and $30,000, as against 700 in Chicago and 1,000 in the whole state of Illinois 2,000 with incomes between $70,000 and $100,000, as against 175 in Chicago and 275 in Illinois, and 170 over $100,000 as against 50 in Illinois. Indiana and Michigan are also reported as having large income bear- ing fortunes over the $20,000 mark. Figures for the Middle West. The following table shows the various taxable incomes in six middle west states.

FOUR SPUD CROPS A YEAR. Spamard's Methods May Be Good For Others to imitate. From Spamard comes the report of a Spamard who grew four crops of potatoes on the same land in twelve months. The potatoes were grown under ornamental conditions, and the group was fertilized with horse manure. First crop, Scotch seed potatoes, planted Aug. 22 and dug Nov. 6, 1911, fair size, firm and good quality, second crop, Scotch seed potatoes, plant of Nov. 9, 1911, and dug Feb. 19, 1912, fair size and very good quality; third crop, Scotch seed potatoes, planted Feb. 21 and dug May 19, 1912, large size, and much better than those preceding crops; fourth crop, Scotch seed potatoes, planted May 22 and dug Aug. 10, 1912, poor yield and potatoes small The grower attributes the poor quality of the last crop to inferior soil 10 of water for irrigation and to excess very hot winds that prevailed in Buf. but, as in other years, the crop of a same period has been a good one the low yield of 1912 does not detract from the feasibility of the plan - Rural New Yorker FOES OF THE ROSEBUD.

We have also found fresh white hellebore dusted on the bushes a very good remedy. A slur can be made by punching the cover of a bik- ing powder can full of small holes and using the can in the same manner as a salt or pepper shaker. The rose slug, a light green worm that eats the leaves, may be controlled by applying whale oil soaps, emulsion pound dissolved in four gallons of water. The rose lug, a hard shell beetle that eats the leaves and blossoms and greatly damages the roses, is best controlled by hand picking or knocking off on a sheet in the early morning. Rosebushs can be kept quite free of insects, however, by literally and frequently sprinkling with tobacco dust.—Rural Life Keep the Calves "Coming." The calves must be kept "coming." whether they suck the cows or are hand fed Skimmilk calves grow strong and thrifty if given a chance. Their milk has to be clean and enough of it. With it they need something to take the place of the cream that is gone. Corn is a good substitute. Oats help also. Ground flaxseed in the milk is due, but it costs too much these days. For cheapness and results corn and oats crushed together or just plain corn coarsely ground and fed dry are hard to heat. Iowa Homestead. Hand or Power Spraying? Hand spraying is more expensive than power spraying. The cost varies much in different cases, depending on the efficiency of labor, convenience and other essentials, and much depends on the apparatus used. The pump should have capacity to maintain high pressure, and the nozzle must throw a fine spray. The requirements are the same for every kind of spraying-Farm Progress. Handy Trench Cleaner.

The number of the optimists is always small, there have been a commutation in which the black vote has not gone solidly Republican, a was The Hull. loot is made themselves lily white from the beginning, to the great disappointment of some respectable Negroes and a great manyumps who had expected to live their pockets from its well filled war chest B. Moore surgeon was to have a very pleasant for everybody, riding the Negroes, but for them to prove conditions were not to be their own manufacture. It is some certain that the Republican will adopt a scheme of representation in their next national convention, with the Southern Negro we lose the commanding influence they have hitherto exerted. There is a general agreement as to the necessity of a new apportionment, and the only note is over its details. Thus the party in which the Negro was effective and had an opportunity to elect power is on the road to him at an oat as the territory where his numbers are most considerable is conferred. "What will be the effect of the suppression of the Southern Negroes in states outside the orders of the Confederacy? Other are at least half a dozen lates in which the Negro vote is considerable, and in local elections, if properly marshaled, might be determined. Where will it go? It has nothing to hope for from the Democracy. The party of social justice offers it nothing. The Republicans are about to turn against it in its important aspirations. "Will it be cast in revenge, or remain generally Republican through gratitude, inertia and the sedative effects of minor concessions in the form of subordinate jobs and patronage for individuals?" Just what the Negro will do we cannot exactly say, but if we were permitted, and we are, we would guess that the Negro hereafter will cast his vote more in accordance with sober, independent thinking than formerly. With him revenge, gratitude a concession all will drop out of the consideration. The Negro wants higher ground. He will support the party and the principles that recognizes him a common interest in political affairs of this country. To The Sun and those of its ilk, we say, do not worry.

The seedlings transplant with much difficulty, and there is usually a heavy loss in the first transplanting, but only a small per cent of loss in the subsequent plantings. Only trees that have been transplanted once or twice should be bought for permanent plantings, and these should be from fifteen to twenty inches in height. The Austrian pine is generally propagated by all nurserymen handling coniferous stock and can be obtained in any desired numbers. The tree requires special care in the seedling stage. It is impracticable for any except skilleted nurserymen to attempt to grow it. - Kannah Farmer THE FARMER'S PROBLEM. According to Former Secretary William, every day in the crop growing season is worth $70,000,000 to the farmers of the United States. This wealth, however, represents the work of nature as well as of men. The big problem for the farmer is to so arrange his affairs that he can keep nature working for him all the time. The taut for an apopragia bed must be well drained, warm, rich soil and thoroughly worked. For a home patch deep spilling may do, but care must be taken to get the manure well mixed with the soil if best results are desired. For larger tubs the manure should be turned under with a plow. Deep plowing is advantageous in most cases. The first plowing should be done late in the fall, the second early in the spring. Good, strong one-year-old roots are the best. A long leaf single row for the home garden, is better and more easily managed than a short bed of a number of rows. The plants should have plenty of space - American Agriculturist. Let Out the Gas. In severe cases of durmency or wind colde the life of the horse may be bea- ved by prompt tapping for the removal of gas. The tricar and cannula used for the purpose are thrust into the most distended part of the right dank, bigh up near to the rib and at the edge of the feather of hair which runs the opposite way of that on the ribs. In a cow tapping is done on the left side. There is little danger in using the instrument, but it must be sterilized before use, and the wound should be dis- infected after removal of the tricar- carnum journal. It's a Useful Servant Where a farmer owns a wood lot and buries wood he can make an excellent investment in purchasing a grain line engine and wood sawing machine. Even a two and one-fourth horsepower engine will do a lot of work, but it is a labourious procedure, to get a somewhat larger one because the chines are that after a farmer gets an engine he will that other work for it to do.
