ALL RAN AFTER THE FARMER'S WIFE.
. Pvld F. Houston, Secretary of
Agriculture, has sent letters to the women members of 50,000 farm households throughout the United States, requesting them to give him information as to how the Department of Agriculture can best serve the needs of the farm women. These letters were addressed "To Housewives in the Homes of the Official Crop Correspondents." With
each letter a return envelope was sup-
piled in which the women can for ward their suggestions. This inquiry results from the re
ceipt of a letter addressed to the Sec
retary in which the writer said:
"The farm woman has been the
most neglected factor in the rural problem, ahd she has been especially neglected by the national Department of Agriculture." The letter was written by a man. In the Secretary's letter these
women are invited to give individual
answers to the letter ,or to discuss the matter in their church societies or women's organizations, and submit answers representing the combined opinions of the women of their entire communities. The answers are requested not later than November 15. This date is set because it will
give the women time after harvest
to consider the matter and discuss it
with their women neighbors.
This letter will go to about twenty
leading farmers in each of the 2,890
counties of the United States. Their answers, it is expected, will represent the views and opinions of upward of 500,000 farm women. The answers will be carefully considered by the specialists of the Department having to do with that branch of agricultural activity.
TAKE OFF YOUR HATS! I am proud to speak of the way in which I was treated by them. They were most courteous, and far ' 'superior to the British officials. I have no complaint to make of the way in which they treated me, for they were gentlemen who had orders to execute and executed them with all possible consideration courtesy. I shall dwell on that In the speches I am to make. Mrs. Pankhurst speaking of Messrs. Moore and McGregor, immigration Inspectors. Now what on earth can we do in a
case like that? Not every one com
ing here deals out such compliments, and while we realize It's only what in Indiana is called a josh, it isn't unpleasant.
one's daily work, and scientific fighting has not taken away the value of enthusiasm In war. There is no field of usefulness in which individual real and energy are
not required today as urgently as ever. Scientific training and preparation for life's activities are indeed more necessary than in the days of unorganized business, but the importance of GRIP AND GRIT increases with them; for, while a mere pleasing personality was formerly almost the sole requisite to a successful trade, the rivalry between large business houses is now so great, and the competition so keen, that nothing but the rarest and most forceful ENTHUSIASM will carry a man to the front of the battle. -' iKeep your eyes open and count the number of listless, spiritless men who are today SUCCEEDING in business. You won't need an adding machine
to help you keep track of the count.
Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Jacobs, who own a prosperous sixteen-acre truck farm near Chicago, have pot devoted their entire energies to raising
vegetables, ihere are ten witnesses to the contrary, the ten comprising
the remainder of the Jacobs family, each of them occupying in turn the cradle in which Jacobs himself was
rocked to sleep in that same house, built in 1869, by the children's greatgrandfather. And Jacobs' high chair has also been occupied by each of the youngsters, Hubert, the two-year-old, showing some feeling at present because of the appropriation of that piece of furniture by Baby Henry,
Abbey at Tennyson's funeral and which has touched so many hearts.
$500 A YEAR MINISTERS. A report to the board of managers
of the Methodist Women's Home Mis
sionary Society, now holding its annual meeting in Washington, shows that more than 3,000 Methodist min
isters in the United States get less
than $500 a year. Doubtless low
salaries of the clergymen are too
common In all religious denomina
tions, as they used to be when the
Protestant clergy as a whole was
better educated and of more Influence
in the community than it Is today;
when, in fact, it was practically the only educated class.
It used to be the rule Is it still?
for clergymen to have large fami
lies, and in the education of them, in hospitality to the traveling mission
aries, visiting and neighborng clergy
men, wandering small bigwigs, lect
urers, educationists and what not, they seemed to have ample use for ten times their meagre pay, helped out by "donation parties," farming
on the side, gifts of produce and so on. Yet those old rugged divines pulled through, thanks, probably, to their wives. What more trying situa
tion than to be a country minister's
wife then? Is it so now? The chil
dren got fed, clothed, taught. Some
how or other, those swarms in the
parsonage prospered. There was enough .though everybody in the village thought that charity began in the parsonage and sent every beggar there. And "ministers' sons," in
spite of their supposed tendency to be
rapid and devilish, are the favorites
of fortune and especial distinction In
this age.
These $500 Methodist ministers
must have some adaption of the
widow's cruse. Doubtless they buy
more books and periodicals, spend
much more in proportion than their
forehanded hearerB of education and
charity. They deserve higher pay, but Is there a school for sound.

STORY OF A FAMOUS HYMNi CROSSING THE BAH. Sunset and evening star. And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar When I put out to sea. But such a tide as moving seems asleep. Too full for sound and foam. When that which drew from out the boundless deep Turns again home. Twilight and evening bell. And after that the dark! And may there no sadness of farewell When I embark. For though, from out the bourne of Time and Place, The flood may bear me far, 1 hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar. . ALFRED TENNYSON. As Tennyson's nurse was sitting one day at his bedside, sharing to a degree the general anxiety about the patient, she said to him suddenly: "You have written a great many poems, sir, but I have never heard anybody say that there is a hymn among them all. I wish, sir, you would write a hymn while you aro lying on your sickbed. It might help and comfort many a poor sufferer." The next morning, when the nurse had taken her quiet place at the bedside, the poet handed her a scrap of paper, saying: "Here is the hymn you wished me to write." She took It from his hands with expressions of grateful thanks. It proved to be Crossing the Bar, the poem that was sung in Westminster
SNOW! Yes, the first snow. Of course 5t doesn't chime in very well with our ideas of a mellow and a golden October. The cold is a very distinct and individual thing, and a view over the city's housetops might easily suggest a moderate day in midwinter. But the first snow is the first snow, a bit too early, maybe, but let us pay our homage. How much it used to mean to us to look out at bedtime and see the flakes falling, to jump out of bed in the morning and look over a new heaven and a new eath! With what buoyancy did the spirit of youth
answer the nan or winter: snow balls and sled rldes "hitching ' and coasting, faces glowing with the snow
rubbed on. And beside there were
visions of the thousand delights with
which the snow had nothing to do. but which youth always foresees. All this and more much more were meant by the first snow. And now though it be early in the season, though it be a signal for sooty slush in the city streets and our late leaves and flowers blotted out, can we not hark back to that spirit of youth that
each year greets with a shout the
welcome snow, answering the herald's trumpet like a loyal subject, Hail, King Winter!
THE PACE THAT KILLS. A former pugilist stabbed a doctor the other night in a Hammond saloon. The ex-prizefighter's life Is a vivid example of the pace that kills and the result of evil environment. Ten years ago this pugilist was a husky young lad with a fearful punch and a promising future. He had a magnificent physique and when a world's champion tried to use him for a chopping block in a West Hammond ring for six rounds he gave the champion all he 'could possibly handle. Indeed if he had taken care of himself he might have acqulrsd fame and fortune. He did neither however. He allied himself with denizens of the village's notorious levee. He drank and took on fat. The prize ring knew him no longer. In his fighting days he stripped at 130, now he weighs 230. His home Is In Chicago's notorious levee; his associates fallen women. He makes his living through their fall. Today he Is a fugutive from Justice. Such is the decensus Avernus.
