PROGRESSIVE BANQUET ATTENDED BY 227

Clifford Jackman, of Huntington, Principal Speaker—Participants 2- Enjoyed Event. —2rr_-=-Tbe progressive party banquet at the armory Friday evening was attended by 227 ladies and gentlemen and a nice banquet supjter was served by C. P. Fata The great majority of the participants were Rensselaer people, but there iCere some from various parts of the county and'a number from Mo non and Monticello. Following the feasting a speaking program was carried out. Louis H. Hamilton acted as toastmaster and Dr. Coffin, of Monticello, the district chairman, made the first speech. He spoke only briefly and his remarks were rather bellicose as directed toward the republicans. James H. Chapman spoke briefly and B. B. Baker, of Monticello, also made a few remarks/ The most enthusiastic of the local speakers was a farmer named Hobson, from Hanging Grove township. He has the qualities of oratory/and humor and kept the banqueters in a cheerful vein. Hon. Clifford Jackman, of Huntington, made the principal speech of the evening. He contended that there was a wide difference between the republican party and the progressive party and that the breach was widening. He voiced, the sentiment that there would be no back” from the progressive paTty and said the doors were open to come over. He said that the democratic party was divided and that ultimately the progressive wing of democracy would join in the progressive plan and there would be two parties, the progressives and the conservative. He made a very good speech, praising the progressive platform and seemed quite in tune with the others in respect to devoting the main fight of the progressives toward the an nihilation of the republican party. The meeting closed with a. few remarks by Chairman Hamilton.

FOLLOWING THE ... LAUNDRY BAG...

By FOSTER GILROY

(Copyright by Laundry men’s National As- —_ -—. sociatlon of America.] T""™ HIS question concerns every housewife in America: jjgppgj "Do you actually know what • '< ' J happens to the contents of your laundry-bag after it leaves your home?" In other words, have you ever thought of the conditions under which your clothes are laundered? Have .you"ever seen the inside of a modern American laundry—are you acquainted with its “spick and spanness," its immaculate cleanliness, sanitation, and ventilation? The old-fashioned wash-day is an echo of the past, a memory that had gbest be left to undisturbed forgottenuess. Question any student of economics about the leading industries of America, and he will glibly rattle off figures without end‘on the output of coal, iron, and steel, the manufacture of household necessities, and the ascendency of agriculture. Ask him about the laundry industry, and you have him stumped for reply! Possibly he may laugh at your te-merity-washing shirts and collars, indeed! How does this figure as an industry ? But it does figure as an industry, and a very important, one. In the first place, the capital invested in the laundry business places it among the leading half dozen In the list of American industries. Every week the American people turn over millions as the price of wearing clean linen. It seeids high time, then, that the American housewife should take a deep and abiding interest in the ultimate destination of her laundry-bag. To the average household the “laundry” consists of a vague establishment somewhere in the neighborhood, the chief opinion being largely influenced by the degree of popularity of the person who calls for and delivers the “wash.” His semiweekly visits make of him a sort of fixture, and more importance is attached to this

messenger than- to the institution it self. —-i y.v _ If the work and service are good, the is accordingly popular. “John” is the one who gets the credit. “He is the best laundryman we ever had.” If the work and service are bad, John gets called down for it; and if this keeps up, he probably forgets to call any more, and a new “laundryman” is engaged. ' Nine times out of ten the ,house keeper does not even know the street address or phone number of her laun dry, mpeh less what is done with her wash after it reaches there. This article is written for the purpose of arousing interest in the laundry itself; the driver is only an Incident, one small spoke in the large wheel of laundry service. It so happens that man has been muckraking his laundry since way back in the dim ages when time began. It probably started In the stone age, when the fad was to cleanse the family wearing apparel by beating it between a couple of flat stones, at the edge of some near-by stream. Only a shirt of mail could stand many trips to the primeval laundry, and one could judge that its luster must have been dimmed, rather than Improved. k. And so it is that modern times came honestly by its propensity to “blame It on the laundry,” no matter whether that much-abused institution was at fauit or not. Some one bad to “catch it,” so why not the defenseless laundry? Defenseless? Let us see. Little bodies of laundrymen began to meet here and there for the interchange of ideas. They were keen, intelligent business men. Soon they got together into a big National Association, In order that these ideas might assume a broader scope. What Is the result? The modern American Inundry of the present day is representative of the highest order of thought and ingenuity of mechanical and electrical engineering: it is a scienoeftnd an art combined.

A REAL LIVE TEACHER

The County Superintendent a Great Factor in the Community Spirit [National Crop Improvement Service.] Mr. Gilbert F. Fites, Superintendent of the Bon Homme Cofmty, S. D., schools, says: “I wish to thank you for the receipt of the Rag 'Doll Cora Tester, the sac-simile Corn Testers, the Blotting Paper Tester and the certificate blanks, which you so kindly sent me some days ago. I am anxious to interest the people whom I serve to make this county one of the best agricultural communities in the State.” He encloses several circulars showing the work among the schools. One is a premium list for the Farmers’ Institute under the joint management of the Farmers’ Institute Association and the County Superintendent of Schools. It consists of prizes for men. in grain and vegetables; for women, sewing and baking; prizes for girls under 15 years fqjc bread, cake, doughnuts, fancy work, etc.; and for rural" school pupils open to all of the boys and girls, including ten ears of com for the boys patching and darning contests for the girls. He has succeeded in interesting the merchant*, bankers, citizens, -etc., of every class In this exposition^ In announcing December 12th as a special agricultural day, he suggests for the little folks that the teachers interest them to make scrap books, showing pictures of blooded horses, cattle, sheep, swine and poultry: “The pictures may he cut from the various farm papers that are* put out in the city. If the variety Is not large enough, get your boys and girls to send for sample copies of every farm paper that you can hear of. Get all of the people In the community interested in the schools and ultimately In raising better breeds of horses, cattle, etc.” He also offers prizes for the best written articles to be read at the Com show this same week. He is also issuing a pamphlet entitled, “For More and Better Cora,” and asks the boys to compare their best com with the pictures in the pamphlet and get them to point out the difference. There are hundreds of County Superintendents busily engaged in this work and we request that they send in a description of their plans for publication in the “County Agent.”

FARMERS’ CHAUTAUQUA

The Breeder’s Gazette Issue, December 4th, has an interesting article on the “Farmers’ Chautauqua.” We quote as follows: “What are farmers’ chautauquas? Of course we have had chautauquas for years; but the farm-' ers’ chautauquas are brand new; they were born last summer. Seven of them have been held in Kentucky; the first in Kentucky, and probably the first in the world, was developed by Dr. H. H. Cherry of the Western State Normal School in Warren County. This initial farmers’ Chautauqua was such an instantaneous and unqualified success that three others were held later in the season at widely separated points ,in the same county. “One jof the most important factors in the success of these chautauquas for farmers is that none of them was held in a town or city, no matter how small and rural in its tendencies. Every one of them was out in the country, and far out in the country. In fact, the last one, which closed its session early in October, was 6V£ miles from any town; and all of the others were from 9 to 12 miles out in “God’s out of doors.” Every effort was made to keep them strictly neighborhood affairs, rural affairs at their very best; a place to enjoy picnic luncheons under the trees; a place to meet old friends and new; a place to get acquainted with experts and men who came from a distance; a place to realize that the State and Government Departments were closer than they had suspected. It was essentially a place to grow away from the old idea of the neighborhood with It many differences, social, political and religious, into the new idea of a community built solidly about some ideal of co-operation.”

ALFALFA CLUB IN WILL CO., ILL.

For years Will County has had her corn clubs and these have been a potent factor in awakening interest in the new agriculture. Will County stands first in Illinois in the number of acres of corn over the 100 bushels mark. Through the corn clubs much knowledge has been obtained, and with the same end in view regarding the alfalfa crop, we have instituted our Will County Alfalfa Club. One of our leading business men, M. A. E Dinet of Joliet has donated twenty dollars toward the fund for premiums. There will necessarily be two classes, the old and the new seedlings, and the first, second and third premium will be offered for the three best fields in each class. Rules governing the contest are yet to be divised. Wo shall welcome suggestions along this line. —F. C. Grannis. County Agent.
