POLITICS ... * AND PARTIES Hie more we consider politic*, the m?[c dlflcult we find it to draw any t'XfcOt une which separatee the two major parties from each other. 'Tfcke the issue which seems to be canting jnore excitement right now among -'politicians than anything, else. Prohibition. Certainly it can not be said that the Republicans are lined up on one side and the Demo crats on the other. There are Wets and Drys in both parties and the on ly issue apparent to us between the two Is as to the means whereby each promises to gire the people of the United States another chance to Tote on the qnestion. And here the Re publicans beat the Democrats to It in making It a matter of State's Rights, which has long been a Demo cratic slogan! .Of all other issues, the campaign Just beginning seems like a replti lion of old struggle between the Ins and the Outs. The Outs want to get in and the Ins want to stay in. The issue will be decided, we think, as it usually is, by whether the ma jority of the electorate believes that a <Aange would be worse than to stfjg as we are, or that any change mast be for the better. WE HOPE HE IS RIGHT Charles G. Dawes, retiring from public life after nearly fifteen years of service which began with the War. included the reorganisation of Germany's finances, a term as Vice President of the United States. Am bassador to Great Britain, and cul minated with the presidency of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, says that the nation has reached the turning point in the depression. Mr. Dawes, who was and is a suc cessful banker as well as a states man. ought to know what he is talk ing about. He does not hold out any glittering promises to the fool ish folk who still believe that the end of the depression will be herald ed by the over-night resumption c t full production In every industry and the skyrocketing of stock exchange prices to where they were three years ago. But he points oat that people are beginning . to os more electric current, that the small business and industries are showing gains in many lines, and he sagely reminds us that recovery from depressions always starts fit the bottom and works op. The big maker of motor cars or ra dio sqfa or other gadgets can't be expectgl to get Into full swing un til; thacsmaller industries have been b aCk ft production long enough to make a dent in the number of the unemployed and put the mass of the people in?a position where they can again become customers for the pro ducts of the big industries. We hope Mr. Dawes is right. And, If we tnay add an observation of onr own, we think the revival o( busi ness is going to begin with makers and distributors of things which are neither domestic necessities nor lux uries, but which are aids to the small business man, helping him to do more business or do it more prof itably.

When can I r*~ the honey from the bee* and how much should I leave In the iilre* Ans. Never take honey from the bees until after It U ripened and sealed over. The .time varies with different localities and seasons. When the honey Is taken, at least fifty pounds should be left wjth the colony to earn Jt over the fall, win ter, and spring months In good con dition. One shallow extracting su per, with worker comb* well filled with honey, Iwl^s fest about enough honey to carry them over. A two story hive may be used with equal results If sullcleht honey ts left with the colony. tit Q. My pullets are not developing properly. There are a number that are underslsed and seem to lack "pep." What is the trouble and what can I do to correct it? Ans. The birds may have a heavy infestation of Internal parasites or be suffering from chronic coccldio sis; they majr be overcrowded or the ration may be unbalanced. To cor rect this condition all undersized and poorly developed birds should be culled and the pullets and cockerels separated. This permits more room for proper development and will eliminate the coccidlosls carriers. The ration should be supplemented with a plentiful supply of succulent gTeen feed and, if this is not avail able, one percent of biologically tes ted cod liver oil should be added. ttX , . , Q. What crops are vast in de- , mand as canned goods and Is there a market for the canned products? j Ans. Tomatoes, corn, and butter beans, put up as soup mixture, are the best sellers on the canned goods market. This mixture is made by using 5 quarts of tomatoes, 2 of corn, and 2 of batter beans. Toung, tender string beaaS of the green pod stringless variety, blackberries, and : peaches, are also In demand when put up in attractive containers. Nearby towas or cities furnish the best markets for home-canned pro ducts and a clientele of customers j could be held throughout the year ] by supplyliig quality .products at rea sonable prices. -t Newspaper editor writes about overdressed girls.

For sale in every housekeeping department one may find oil cloth in a moire surface iq almost any color used in a room. If not in the dcxninant color, then it surely can be found in' a color which con trasts. Cover the top of the dressing table with this lovely stuff,, tack the frill around, and a pretty and useful toilet table is the result The oil cloth can be wiped clean as easily as glass. Does your child have difficulty in drinking all the milk pour physician advises? If so, try this; purchase a very pretty pitcher holding enough for one portion, and find a tiny gbus, ? preferably a colored ooe, to be used with it It is tuck fun for the youngster to poor the milk and to drink from a little glass that the entire amount is gone m no time. _ . ? Almost every one who has had the iron stick, when ironing starched clothes, will appreciate any suggestion to overcome this. My mother advised adding a small piece of lard to the hot starch, another housekeeper makes the starch with soapy water. Soap flakes dissolved in hot water added to the starch before the starch is quite fin ished will help. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? * * ? ? ?
