The phenomenon cannot have es- caped any deep student of our times that, in the midst of ceaseless politic- al activity, the average American re- mains quite detached from politics. Perhaps it is the very perennity of politics which =explains the Americ- an’s indifference to it, says the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Or it may be the diversity and volume of American politics which accounts for the phen- omenon. By nature a political ani- mal and inheriting from his fathers a predilection of politics, the Amer- ican finds himself surfeited by the constant contemplation of city, state and national affairs, often reacts to it all, and ends by taking himself out- side the current of political life. He may own to an academic interest in it, he may observe the actors on the political stage with a certain curi- osity, but he himself is not in it or of it. It might—it doubtless would—be otherwise if our politics were organ- ized on a basis like England’s, where national politics holds the boards and every word spoken in Parliament is chronicled in the papers and read by the man in the street, as well as the thinker and the publicist. But the American is the victim of his country’s very size, and of its separ- ation into the triple political division of city, state and nation. He cannot well follow the affairs of all three minutely, and too often his detach- ment from the one or the other ulti- mately extends to the three. He is not entirely to blame for his indif- ference, but it is none the less a fact that American government suffers immensely in consequence. Would Cut Legislature. In point of numbers, the Minnesota legislature is the largest body of its kind in the United States with the exception of Illinois. There are sixty-seven senators and 130 repre- sentatives, a total of of 197, while in Illinois there are fifty-one senators and 153 representatives, or a total of 204. So far as can be learned the Min- nesota - senate, is by far the largest state senate in the country, the aver- age ranging in other states from for- ty to forty-five. With Illinois except- ed, the house is said to exceed in number that of any other similar leg- islative body in the states. Because of the rapid increase in size of both bodies since the erection of the state capitol, both the senate and house chambers are much over- crowded. In the house, there is not room for another seat. Consequent confusion has impress- ed on many members the need of cut- ting down the size of both bodies. Many have said a house of 100 mem- bers is the maximum, which should be allowed, and the senate should be reduced to not more than fifty. Others contend that forty senators and eighty representatives would be about right. The proposition of lowering the number of legislators is important, but it is likely that no action can be taken at present, although plans for the future should be considered.

Our ex- perience with legislators has shown us that very often the ones who do these things are the men who later ignorantly vote millions of dollars for something they neither know nor attempt to know anything.about, or else who come along later n the ses- sion with some scheme to help them- selves or their friends politically through the expenditure of hundreds of thousands. of state money on some unnecessary project.

Standish) Washington, Jan. 13.—There is a little boy in Washington, the son of one of the most well known men in the United States. who has never tasted candy, ice cream or cake. ‘When he goes to parties, like all other little boys and girls he takes several graham crackers and when his com- panions eat candy and cake, and ice cream, he eats crackers. And this little boy goes to scores and scores of parties. He has never been ill and is strong and healthy with ‘“hard muscles,” according to his father. This little fellow with this unique record is the two and half years old son of Dr. Harvey L. Wilky, former chief chemist of the U. S. Depart- ment of Agriculture. And besides, Master Wiley doesy’t want any of those delicasies. ‘“Last May the Northern Pacific railway sent him an eight-pound fruit cake with two gold plated candles on it,” said Dr. Wiley. “I cut a small piece and asked him if he wanted some. “No, daddy,” he said, *“cake not good for your boy.” Dr. Wiley said he was strongly op- posed to feed children sweets, such as candy, ice cream and cake. “It makes children fat and it's a sin to begin to be fat. in babyhood. We get that way soon enough,” added this big stout man. When the boy attended his first party, Dr. Wiley, said he went along and when the other children had lunch he told his boy that sweets were not good for him and that he should not eat them. The lad agreed, said Dr.’ Wiley, and ate graham crackers instead. ‘“He eats his mush without sugar and cream every morning,” said Dr. Wiley, “and you couldn’t make him/ eat it any other way. He has never been taught to eat candy and sweets and he doesn’t want them. Every Sunday morning he gets blackberry preserve, which he enjoys, but they have acids and other foods in them and are nourishing.” The youngster didn’t eat a bite of candy, or cake on Christmas, the feast day of most other boys and girls. Dr. Wiley said he bought no candy for his'children. Instead they have fresh fruits and nuts. Dr. Wiley said children should not have candy because it interferes with their digestion, decays their teeth and makes them crave an unusual amount. No one under eighteen years of age should eat candy, said Dr. Wiley. And he recommended it for men and women who ““work hard physically.” He said it was espec- ially good for football players and that he recommended to the Harvard coach that each player eat sugar dur- ing the game. “Sugar burns up quickly in the blood,” he added.

The contest of members of the pig clubs at the Louisiana state fair at Shreveport was highly successful, the department reports. Although the. fair authorities limited ,the number of entries to 150, boys from all parts of the state shipped 185 pigs. The southern farmer, by virtue of his location and climate, is splendid- ly situated for the production of fowl and eggs, says the Department of Ag- riculture in a bulletin just issued. The mild winters and early springs make the production of eggs an easy matter when eggs are high. “On many farms throughout the country,” says the department, “the money derived from the sale of poul- —_— NO HEADACHE OR NEURALGIA VPAIN' Get_a 10 cent package- of James’ Headache Powdon rmd don’t snffer, When your head aches you simply must have relief or you will go wild.

The Orphingtons are also a good general-purpose species.” ‘While prices are good, the depart- ment’ of agriculture advises farmers should get busy and make contracts with city folks to ship eggs by par- cel post_throughout the year. With a ‘parcel post egg market established the farmer can depend upon a reliable income -all the year around and util- izé. the mails for marketing other products if the egg experiment proves successful. Once having secured a post market for eggs, it will be a very easy mat- ter to market many other things by the same method such at butter, poul- try, fresh and cured meats, sausage, fruits, vegetables, honey and so on. KRKK KKK KK KK KK KKK ¥ FAIR IS STATE'S MOST he * PROFITABLE INSTITUTION X TR KKK KKK KKK KKK KX The Minnesota State. Fair, actord- ing to the annual report of Secretary J. C. Simpson to the Agricultural society, has been the most profitable institution in the state, as far as re- turns on money actually invested-are concerned. “In the thirty-one years of its ex- istence at Hamline,” says Mr. Simp- son, “the state fair has not only sery- ed as one of the most active educa- tional institutions in Minnesota, but it has operated at no expense what- ever to the state. Indeed it has ac- tually paid back in property value ona dollar and seventy cents for ev- ery dollar the state has put into it. I submit to all fair-minded men that this cannot be paralleled by any oth- er educational institution in the world.” The profit on the 1914 state fair amounted to $12,237, according to the report. As far as can be ascer- tained, the Minnesota State Fair and five others were the only ones out of about sixty fairs in the country that more than cleared expenses. As far as can be learned it was the only fair that had an attendance of over 300, 000 Had it not been for cold and rainy weather the attendance would liave been much larger. The report presents an earnest plea for a livestock barn and addi- tiens to several buildings on' the grounds.
