One of the principal potiniiS made was tliat a great lack of knowledge was found among housekeepers, as to the proper price paid for food. It wa« also stated that the daiigtters of welldondo families are apt to be brought up without any knowledge of housekeeping. It used to he said th a t the farm e r was the best in formed business man of the community, as he had to know the price of everything. The o’d tim e housew'ifo was invariably aware if eggs w'ere up two cents a dozen If she felt the price was unreasonable she would not buy. Much ol the nei|:hho:rly discussion, some of us used to hear as c-hildrei related to V'- question of prices of ordinary household commodities, w h ether beef had risen or butter had fallen. No man could operate a bus iness unleso he knew w h at his raw m a te ral cost or ought to cost. Sim ilarly the dome is a business propositicii, and will be costly unless the ouyer has a keen idea of normal prices. Some people consider much talk of money to he sordid. But + h isisa practical world of realities, and tlie home manager needs to- know what she is up against. A wmman once rem arked th a t her butcher a’ways gave her onl/ the lump price for the piece. W hen she asked how much per pcund it was his arithm a lic was either too faulty or he was reluctant to tell her the figure. A piu'chase and sale can hardly considered to he well made for both pa^'toes, unless each understands exactly the price. This is why newspaper advertisers always do wed to tell exact prices in iheir notices. Thereby they not only interest many more readers, but they assist in educating the public in a vital m a tter of home economies.

A tt’y, and Acting Surrogate. (Note,—^This Citation is served to give you legal notice of the proceed ing; but you are not obliged to ap pear unless you desire to do so.). PROHIBITION COLUMN I . THE PLUM HARVEST i I I A trifle early yet for the falling of the' big political plums in this state, but symptoms are not lacking as to the uirection the wind lis like ly to lake when the full harvest is on. Governor-elect W hitman has ann ounced his desire for the RE-ELBC TION of T'laddeus C. Sweet as Speaker of the Assembly and is credited with a like desire for the RETENTION of Senator Elon R. Brown as President of the upper legslative eham ber. Comptroller-elect Travis is credited in the press with the intention of conveying the position of head attorney for his departm e n t upon Col. Lafayette B. Gleason. The i lace IS w( rtli $10,000 a year. Mr. Whtman says h^ “admires” Mr. Glea son greatly. Nothing could he more gratifying to Mr. Barnes of Albany—or to any true blue member of the Old Guard than these appointments. Mr. Barnes was responsible for the election of Mr, Sweet last session, using him as a p?wn to defeat the liberal' element of .life party when his own assemblyman, Harold D. Hinman, fell outside hie breastworks. No. more reactionary man has appeared in the four y ears than Mr Brown, who stol- 'dly opposed dir<iCtr:^,primarie3-, workmen’s compensation and other whole some *cons ructive legislation, hut snapped tue party whip -servilely evertime the voice o-f the M aster Boss was heard. Col. Gleason’s VERY TITLE seems to have come from the Old Guard B1‘ THE WAY, WHO EVER SUSPECTED I HAT HE WAS A LAW YER? I “CONSERVATIVE ELiniNATION” | Speaker Sweet of the Assembly, has been down to New York with the object of enlisting the support of Governor-elect W hitman in his ef forts for r3-election. The Speaker tarried long enough to convey to in quisitive news'paper repoHers assurance that he is firmly oppos-ad to ‘rip per’- legislation, naively addng th a t he favors ‘conservative elimination” of some thousands of public e.mployees.—Democrats, of course, who in the logical seqiince of events would be succeeded by th a t many Republicans H e -also expressed himself in favor of the aboliton or “transfer” of State deparcments and the “reconstruction” of others. W hereby we infer that the wicked “ripper” re-organization under Democrntc auspices becomes highly righteous “conservative elimination” when practiced by Republicans, dn order that v.'ie hungry ones ©f that political sect may get another chance at the feed troughs. “A Shining Success” So says vVest Virglna of prohibition r fter four m o nths’ trial. John Barley corn’s friends predicted a great slump m business but results are quite the contrary. Wheeling has turned her breweries into a packing house which employs three times as many men, and e v e r y place wh’ch was once a sa oon has been rented to another form of industry, some at advanced rents. Charleston -j brewery has become an ice plant and the people are to have •ce a t a p rice.that the poor of the city can afford. And for the first time in the history of the state, a grand jury has adjourned w ithout finding a single offense -sYorthy of indictm ent. T h e / Keep Their Law Of the g reat commonwealths. Maine Kansas, N. Dakota, Oklahoma, Geor gia., Mississippi, N. Carolina, iOahama and Tennesee, which have within tlie last tw enty live years adopted prohi bition, only one (Alabama) has reject' cd it. The reason why Alazama re- pealed the law after three years’ trial is not hard to See. The prohibitory lavr was lo 't not through a vote of the people hut tlirough a liquor leg* islature. W ithout doubt if th e c uestion were subm itted to popular vote today th e r e would be an overwhelmug maj- triiy for statew id^prohibition. oom e Progress It took half a century to get nine prohibition states—'then in th is year of our Dordl814 f i \ t come over in a lunch. Of the seven states which voted in the recent election on state wide prohibition the drys won Virgin ia, Colorado, \ Oregon W ashington and Arizona. Pour of these are wo m an suffrage states. We now have ourteen p»-ohibiti<n states, nine of which have outlaCwed the liquor traf fic by constitutioPRl enactment. ' Miners More Efficient. The W est Virginia prohibition law says the Coal Trade Journal, has much to do with the marked increase n. the output of cogl in the various mining reg u n s of tlie state. The min- irs are more efficient b-eoau.se free access tb liiu o r i» denied them. The week end drinking bout -is a thing of the past To Tne Business Man Your best custom er is the man who does not drink. If you want to pros per make 'a,ur community dry and every man in it a non-drinker. For every joint or blind tiger in prohibition Maine there are sixteen blind tigers in license New York, plus 27,000 state licensed saloons. T h e most titanic stru g g le b e t w e e n nations since the world began is, -so f r as tlie allies are concerned, a “te total ’ war. WOMAN SUFRAQE NOTES Some Standard-Bearer Miss M arian Town© of Jackson County, Oregon occUpieS a Unique position. As the result of the election she oecom 's tlie first woman mem ber of the legislature and she is also said to be the only Democrat in the lower liou&c. She thus becomes at one and the same tim e the standard- bearer for her party and sex. Sure W o m e n W a n t to V o te. In Kansas the woman rote was so surprisingly large tth a t even the election officials w ere caught un a w a r e s . S o g r e a t w a s th e rush at th e p o lls in T o p e k a th a t th e A t t o r n ey-General af tlie .state gave an opin ion that the voting places should not close until all who arrived before the closing hour had had a chance to vole. According to the Topeka Daily Cap ital, the woman v tte throughout the state ranger] from 40 to 60 per cent of the vote cast and it was estimatY*d th a t It m ight reach a total of 200,000 No more in the state of K a n sas can a persou oe found asserting th a t women do not w a n t to vote. Women Chase Dirt. The' finst notable achievem ent of the women voters of Chicago was th e , solution of the garibage question which had become a standing menace to the health of the city. At the last election the women moved onto the sewer problem. Experts have told the Sanitary Board that the $80, 000,000 sewage canal will smell to heaven unless something is done. But the Board failed to act effective ly. The women voters re-elected the two members who had formed the pro testing m iority. The men’s vote- alone would have defeated them. The Chicago He^'nld said editorially; “The fact that the two most (in defatigable protesters against waste on the Sanitary Board were retain ed as trustees largely by women votet proves that optimistic estim ates of the psychology of the woman voter were fairly correct.” From tlie beginning of human so ciety women have been largely oc cupied in cieeaning up dirt. Evidentlj the pO'Ssession of the vote as a new and efficiert tool with which to pur sue m.ore effectively th e ir a n c ien t occupation. Women and Progress. State-wide prohibition of th© traf fic in liquer; an amendment provid ing for halter roads; one to perm it women to serve on juries; one to per m it verdicts in civil cases when three fourths of the jury agree; a com mission to advance child welfare; these are seme of the improvements in government that, according to early r-etums, the won eri voters of Col orado helped introdTiCe in their state.

They will vote not because they w a n t to but because they ought to. vote. — Leslie Willis Sprague. P. F. PREST. D. D. 'S.
