Six more shacks are to he erected on the
eampu* of tl* 1'iilrersltr of Tcaaa. All
of the hulldlmrs are to be one story and of
frame, the aggregate cost to be 130,000.—
Corpus Chrlstl Democrat.
The above parngTaph contains its
own explanation. Six shacks for
thirty 'housand dollars means tliat
each shack costs five thousand dol-
lars. Some communities have school
houses that do not cost five thousand
dollars.
Keep McCulloeh county money at home.
If scut to mall order houses, it never re-

Is lost. It Isn't so much the loss of the

the cash Is sent away. Keep our dollars
on the jump by trading at home.— Brady
Standard.
If all of the wealth that is created
in a Texas community should remain
in that community property values
would increase in a most amazing
way. The constant drain of ready
money has a tendency to retard local
business transactions and really makes
local property leas valuable.

20 chicks a year. That will give him
21 hens at the end of the first year. In
the next year the 21 hens will raise

anything that has been accomplished
in the schools, for this is an achieve-

For a number of years the United
States has been agitated at intervals
by cries of "War with Japan!" While
a war with Japan, or any other nation,
is not wanted and would be a great
calamity should it occur, the United
States government has taken the pre-
caution to prepare herself for such an
emergency. Military alarmists claim
that the preparations have been In-
sufficient, but the fact remains that
the United States Is prepared for any
emergency that may arise. The aver-
age everyday American does not want
a war with Japan, but it Is surprising
how great an interest he takes in the
talk I hat is periodically started by the
Jingoes. As long as this nation is
headed by a wise, far-seeing admin-
istration the average, every-day Amer-
ican has little to fear in the shape
of a foreign war, and the time spent
in discussing international politics
would be much better spent in dis-
cussing tho things needed in each
community.

CHAMPION PEANUT RAISER.
Rusk County Ctrl Break* AU Previous
Records.
Dallas, Texas.—"Anather world's
record has been broken in Texas," said
II. M. Cottrell. agrlcultuhal commis-
sioner of the Bock Island railway in
Dallas recently. A fourteen-sear-old
miss at Henderson, Rusk county, pro-
duced 11,294 pounds of merchantable
peanuts on one acre of ground. Of
course I understand that this Includ-
ed both the vines and the nuts, but
my calculations show that the acre
produced 4,256 pounds of peanut hay
and 232 bushels of nuts.
This acre of peanuts was planted
by Miss Emma D. Stokes in the pea-
nut club contest of the Texas Indus-
trial Congress, and won for her a <300
cash prize, the capital prise offered by
the Congress for this class. The ac-
curacy of the statement is as near be-
yong questions as is possible, for Yan-
cey Milner, a graduate of the Agricul-
tural and Mechanical College of Tex-
as, and son of the former president of
the college Is demonstration agent for
Busk county, and he furnished the in-
formation concerning the growing of
the crop and the yield, from which
these figures are made.
"Miss Stokes' case is notable for
several reasons. In the first place the
yield exceeded the record yield here-
tofore verified by a man occupying a
position similar to that of Mr. Milner
by thirty-two bushels. Then both Miss
Stokes and Mr. Milner state the stand
was perfect, that there were no blank
rows without plants. This Is the place
where most people who fail to make
a success of raising peanuts have
trouble; they are not careful to plant
fertile seed and see that there ^re no
breaks, no blank spaces in the field.
"Another thing of particular Inter-
est to Texas farmers at this time is
the fact that this one acre of peanuts
was one-third more profitable than
the prize acre of corn and nearly for-
ty per cent more profitable than the
prize acre of cotton. It certainly
shows a girl can grow peanuts. Det
the man of the state follow her ex-
ample."

What Autopsies data for Vs.
T.eeuwonhoek. a Hollander, Invented tha
mlersacwpe MS years ago. Ixwklaf through
this first magnifying Instrument, he saw
hitherto invisible forms of life. Thus be-
sran the science of bacteriology. But bac-
teriology iruide no material advance until
Koch, the Qerman, la 1871 discovered a
■Method of growing bacteria In teat tubes.
The surpassingly fruitful discovery of
Xocli was the method ot growing bacteria
in test tubes that they might be closely
watched and studied. The discovery of the
tubereule bacilli and other bacilli by Koch
was a result of this prior and more Im-
portant dlsoevery.
The discovery of the science of medicine
goes back to the ancient Egyptians, Arabs
and Greeks. But their medical science was
a system of speculative philosophy.' No ma-
terial headway was made until the Italian,
Morgagnl, began to put the speculations of
Eeculajilus, Hippocrates and Galen to the
acid test. .
When Morgagnl began Writing medical
science based upon post morten examina-
tions the people beirnn to get helpful medi-
cal service. The Oerman Viychow, begin-,
niag wltore Murgagul left off, founded mod-'
ern medicine firmly on the facta shown by
autopsies. , ; t
The great safety against plagues enjoyed
by the people of the present day, as com-
pared with the hasards to which their an-
cestors were subjected. traces back to
Koch's method of observing bactrela. That
luen gat well from diaeaaes which In olden
tlmea -were deadly ts due to the method
of ■ proving by autopsy Inaugurated by
Morgagnl. *
There are people who complain that
medical service Is not what it should be.
Theas people commonly make use of a
study by Dr. It. C. Cabot of Boston. Dr,
Cabot found that the autopsies frequently
showed that the attending physician had
been wrong In his diagnosis.
What Dr. Cabot's study showed was
that medical service Is not what It could
be. If It were the universal custom to
have carefully studied autopsies, diag-
nosis would be much more accurate. The
average chance of the sick man to set
well would be Increased several fold.
It would have another effect. Applying
the information disclosed, the chance of
keeping: the surviving members of the fam-
ily well would be areatly^ Increased.

Improve your resistance io colds by
building up your general health. To do
this, do not over eat. Keep the organs of
elimination normal. Take cold baths In
the morning; sleep In a cold, well ventilated
room: avoid crowds and overheated rooms
and assembly halls; keep the teeth, tonsils,
nose a.ii& throat clean, and breathe nothing
but clean air.
Take a purge, go to bed and drink an
abundance of water. Do not overeat. If
the cold persists, have a physician examine

Captain Vermont, one of the mem-
bers of a commission sent to America
to spend a very large sum of money
for England, was bored In New York
by the persistency of an agent who
tried to sell him saddles. m
After listening to the agent good-
naturedly for a long time, Captain
Vermont said:
"I cannot buy your saddles. The
prices you ask are too high. I, like
the old Welsh farmer, insist on get-
ting the full value of my money.
This farmer, Captain Vermont con-
tinued, "was the only person who ap-
peared at chapel one stormy Sunday
morning.
"The minister, seeing but one wor-
shipper, thought he would preach
only one sermon—not two as usual.
"He mounted the pulpit stairs, and
looking down at the solitary farmer,
said:
" 'Well, John, shall I give you the
sermon in Gaelic or the one in Kng-
llsh ?'
"John, who was a very gruff old
fellow, looked the preacher sternly in
the eye and replied:
" 'Give me them baith, you're weel
paid for themi' "

Mrs. Fethlck Lawrence, the noted
English suffragette, said the other day
to a New York reporter:
"Your idea of us militants is that
we are vixens, tartars, man-haters.
But, as a matter of fact, we have la
our ranks some of the most elegant
and fascinating women in London
society. "
"No, the militant la not like Mrs.
Blanc, who said to her daughter, one
day:
" 'I am certainly easy on shoes.
Look at this pair of elastic sides. I've
wont them three years, and they're
stili as good as new. I'm easy oa
clothes, too. There's my tweed—Just
as fresh as the day I bought It seven
years ago. And hats, gloves, stock-
ings—In fact, I'm easy on everything.
"'Except father, eh?' said the
daughter, without looking up from
her book."

They are telling in Washington Ikfe
anecdote about the president.
The president, at a recent dinner
party, conversed with a self-made mil-
lionaire who disapproved of the study
of foreign languages.
"I've known men to get less through
knowing foreign languages, but never
more," the millionaire declared.
"I don't quite follow your reason-
ing," the president said, with a smile,
"when you claim that a knowledge
of foreign languages means less
money. Your view is, then ,that there
is money in not knowing foreign lan-
guages, eh? Well, if that be so, It
certainly is an easy way of acquiring
wealth."

The rural lad emerged from the
woods one day and was walking along
the road when he saw an automobile
for the first time." The thing didn't
look natural to him, and he started
down the middle of the road at a
speed that made the automobile "burn
gasoline to keep him in sight.
"Won't do nothin' o' the kind!" de-
fiantly called back the native.
"What's that?" indignantly cried
the chauffeur, still working the horn
Do you mean to tell me you won't gel
out of the road!"
"That's jes' what I said!" cried the
speeding native. "Ye want ter git me
over in that plowed ground where ye
kin ketch me!"—Philadelphia Tele-

Colonel Roosevelt, as all the world
knows, shaves every evening before
he goes to bed. Apropos of this odd
fact, there is a little story.
Before the Outlook office one day
a roubust man of middle age ap-
proached the colonel and said, dis-
plf^-ing a row of strong white teeth
in a smile?
"Colonel, 7'm taken for you every-
where. It's most embarrassing.
Colonel Itoosevelt looked the man
over keenly, then, with a smile that
displayed his own strong white teeth,
he said:
"Weil, of all my doubles, you re-
semble me the most. In fact, if I
could have you up before me every
evening, I'd be able to shav^ by you."
