There appears to be considerable
heartburning in France over this visi,t
of the representative of medieval ideas
about government to the tarditional
home of European freedom, and the
suspicion is openly expressed that it
may be a preliminary step to some
scheme to control the Swiss In view of
the next attack upon France which
almost every .frenchman believes is
s ire to come, and that soon. But at
present I have nothing to do -with that
aspect of the subject. I am concerned
with the striking contrast which this
picture presents in the outward aspect
of republicanism and monarchy as
shown by their representatives. And it
suggests to a thoughtful observer

.Land Commissioner Roblson Sonnds
Sole of Warn Ins Regarding Mo
nopoly of West Tcxns Lands.
Austin, Texas, Oct. 7. A strong note
of warning Is Bounded by J. T. Robl
son, land commissioner, in a chapter
of his forthcoming annual report,
which Is under the caption of "Land
Monopoly." Commissioner Roblson
doubts the wisdom of the exceedingly
large holdings of certain land owners
throughout the state, and takes the
position that it keeps the average man
who Is seeking a .home upon which to
settle, from attaining that desirable
object. He goes Into details as to
how the first great colonizations or
large holdings were acquired, which
dates back to 1792 in the days of the
socalled empresarlos and comes down
to the days of the ranchmen in which
the- ownership ranges varied from 1000
to -1.000,000 acres of land. The com
missioner believes that the loan agen
cies should In some way be regulated.
"Much of the 3,000,000 acres given 5
ior the erection of our capitol, points
Out the commissioner, "is y,et held in
large bodies. The state university has
some 2,000,000 acres unsold in some
four or five different localities. Our
school fund has about 2,000,000 acres
unsold. The most of this school land
Is practically in one continuous

that territory for some 30 years have
never realized enough from it to pay
taxes,"
Commissioner Roblson finds that
few large land owners are ever under
the necessity of selling or converting
the land into a revenue asset. It is
usually held for such increase in value
as time, population and the Industry
of others will bring it. He maintains
that when large bodies of unimproved
agricultural land are withheld from
the industry of men. it is an obstacle
to the development of the country. The
longer the tenure the less probable Is
homecoming occupancy.
MURDER CASE IS ON

court for Guadalupe county closed the'
second week of Its fall session and
the criminal docket -was cleared. There
will be ono or two civil, cases to be
tried by jury, and the business of the
session will probably be completed
some time during the coming week.
The last of the criminal cases tobe
tried at this term is that of the State
vs. Jack D. Moore, which will so to
the Jury late- today. Moore, it Is
charged, shot and killed "W. F. Tudor,
a i jvlsll - known railroad man, at East
Vaughn, on July 11, last. Both parties
occupied prominent places in the com
munity and had many friends. Moore
was mayor of Bast Vaughn, and both
he and Tndor had been friends and
neighbors. The trouble. It is said,
started oTer the boyhood quarrels of
the young son3 of the two men. It is
claimedby the defence that a plan had
been laid, to which the elder Tudor
was a party, by which the two small
Tudor hoys were to whip Moore's boy,
of about the same age, at the ball
ground on the afternoon of the kill
ing; that Tudor had stated that If
Sloore interfered, he would take caro
of him; that they all met at the ball
ground that evening and that Tudor
attacked Moore, who. In self defence,
drew a gun and shot Tudor, killing
him instantly.
It was in Moqre's barber shop at
East Vaughn, that Herbert Hargls was
killed in September, 1910, by Edward
G. McNabb.

the general satisfaction with the agri

a realization that even heavier yields
must be secured in the future.
In spite of the enormous crop returns
this country has really been neglecting
its agricultural possibilities and should"
have produced a much greater yield
from the acreage planted to its staple
crops, in the opinion of Truman G.
Palmer, who has devoted many years
of study to this question. For instance,

How Geekak Faemsrs
according to Mr. Palmer, were the agri
cnhuTal methods in vogue here which
are generally in use in Germany, the
yield of many of anr principal crops
might have been almost double even the
bumper figures. in support oi uns
claim he has prepared a chart covering
the thirty-year period from 1879 to 1909
which shows that the average collective
yield of wheat, rye, barley and oats in
Germany for 1909 was nearly 39 bushels
an acre as against a fraction more than.
21 bushels in the United States. In;
1909, he points out, the combined yield1
di these crops in Uermany trom ,w,J8,
536 acres was 1,373,000,000 bushels while-
in this country it required nearly three
times as much land, that is 88,944,000
acres to produce a total of 1,947,065.000
bushels. This difference is all the more
6trikrng because of the fact that the
chart shows that in 1879 the average
rield per acre in the two countries -was
practically the same, Germany's figure at
that 0 time being about 22. bushels as
igainst 20 for the United States. Up
to 1891 in fact the German superiority
was not great, but from that year on it
became rapidly more marked until at the
end of 1909 the average crop yield, per
icre in that country had increased eighty
per cent, as against only six and six
tenths per cent in this country.
In other words, according to Mr.
Palmer, this cquntry has been practically
Standing still agriculturally, although its
lands are superior anl the same methods
which have brought about Germany's
success are readily available. The secret
of this success, says Mr. Palmer, is the
German practice of sugar beet cultiva
tion in rotation with other croos. and he
points out 1n substantiation of this clainri
The Manicure Lady By wniiam f. Kirk
yEORGE," said the Manicure
fi T Lady to the Head Barber,
"have you ever did any cry
ing since you grew up?"
"I might have sniffed' a little," re
plied the Manicure Imdy's friend,
George, "but I can't remember It Why?
What's the answer?"
"Oh, I was just wondering If prown
up men ever cried much," said the
Manicure Lady. "I seen the old gent
crying last night and it seemed sort
of funny, because he had just come
home from organizing a new lodge
with some of his brother order-Joiners,
and usually, George, after one of theni
sessions, the old boy Is as full of sun
shine as the aurora parabolis is full of
colors."
"Tou mean the aurora boracic," the
Head Barber said, by way of correc
tion. "Parabolis is something that they
give kids to make them go to sleep."
"I guess you couldn't -seep peaceful
If you don't get a chance about once
every 10 minutes vto air your knowl
edge." said the Manicure Lady, favoring
the Head Barber with a glance of su
preme disdain. "But anyhow, I ain't
the kind of a girl that lets the vapor
ing of a whisker whittler's' brain put
me off my mental equity, or whatever
they call It I wanted to tell you about
the old gent and so to get back to
him.
"Father came home crying, and cry
ing actual. George. I don't mean none
of them stage tears. I mean that he
was sobbing on the level, crying like
one of them Yellowstone park geysers.
I thought at first that he was going to
choke himself to death with salt water.
And do you know what he was crying
for, George? On the level. I guess you
couldn't guess It In a million years He
was crying because at tills here lodge
meeting he had met a friend of his that
had a friend that had went to Prince
ton, and it seems that this here friend
of his that had went to Princeton had
a friend in the same class with Mister
Wilson and was afraid Mister Wilson
wasn't wasn't going to be elected presi
dent of the United States. I suppose
the friend Pa met done all of the cry
ing first, but it must have acted kind of
sympathetic with the old gent, because
by the time he got home he was weep
ing willingly himself.
'TTears is funny tilings, George. If a
gent sees a lady weeping tears that
springs unbidden from her heart, he
pulls the old frowny face and sajs
sompthing about the weakness f a
mere woman. But let me whisper
that it is only since Germany took up
the cultivation 'of the- beet that she has
so easily outdistanced the United States.
Further support is given tq this claim
by the fact that where this system has
been used in this country a marked
increase in all crop yields has been
shown.

:more barley and 50 per cent, more
potatoes.
"Scientific rotation in connection with
the culture of the sugar beet," says Mr.
Palmer, "has doubled and trebled the
yield of staple crops in Europe. To-day,
as a result of the beneficent culture of
these tubers, the 'worn-out' soil of
Europe is twice as productive per acre as
our own rich western lands. America
has lagged behind Europe in learning
this important agricultural lesson. But
'now the farmers of the West and Middle
West are realizing its value. I have
gathered reports from hundreds of these
farmers showing their yields in the
staple crops before and after rotation
are octshupmng U. S.
pwth the sugar beet The figures are
startling. They indicate that if the
average American farmer followed the
lead of his beet raising brethren, the
production of our fields would be in
creased over 100 per cent. Our crops in
the five staples would show an increased
-ralue of $3,81 7,603 .000 annually. This
stupendous sum may arouse skepticism,
but it is sunolv a deduction from eoM
.figures.
the sugar pcet is in itself a valuable
crop, in addition to its aid to the nro-
-ductivity of the farm generally. Many
beet farmers report a greater profit per
acre from beets than from any other
crop, ine tanner sells his beets to the
beet sugar factory at a price fixed before
he plants his seed, thus makine him
independent of the speculator. The beet
tops ana the pulp left over after the
sugar has been extracted from the beet
rmake excellent fattening foddeffor the
stock, bo nothing is lost to the farmer.
"I believe we are about to enter upon
an era of wonderful agricultural de
velopment with the sugar beet as a
basis. As soon as European govern
ments realized the value of the sugar
beet they forced its development by
heavy export bounties on "beet sugar and
heavy protective tariffs against the im
port of the cane product of the tropics.
If our government continues to give the
American fanners a tariff protection
against sugar grown in foreign countries
under the cheapest labor in the world,
the surar beet industry will in a com
paratively few years reach proportions
comparable to those it has attained in
Europe, which means that we shall have
traveled far in the quest of a solution
of the increased cost of living problem."

gents old gents and young gents
after coming home from a lodge meet
ing." "I never cared much for lodges and
I never cried much since I grew up,"
said the Head Barber. ''What lfttla 1
cried, I always choked off kind of
quick, by thinking of something funny
like musical comedies."
"Tou don't say so!" exclaimed the
Manicure Lady. "Thinking of most of
the musical comedies that I have saw

I were not in complete harmony
with my surroundings and with the
rest of the company "
That Is what Miss Irene Timmons,
the leading woman and most popular
member of the Prospect theater, said
to ma the other day when we wero
discussing the eternal question of good
looks and good health and. how a
woman can retain them amid the ar
duous life of stock work.
Miss Timmons is slight and almost
frail looking. There is something
quite childlike in her manner and only
a pair of keen and Immensely clear
eyes suggest the latent possibilities of
this actress who looks like an Ingenue
and plays the heroines in "Kreutzer
Sonata." "The Girl of the Goldn
West" and the mother in the "Witch
ing Hour" with iual success.
"No woman can really accomplish
her best work or express her individ
uality unless she is in harmony with
those about her." said Miss Timmons.
"Of course she can't be beautiful if she
lives in a constant state of discord, for
there is nothing that wastes strength,
vitality, and so destroys youth and
good looks as discord, while harmony
develops beauty.
The Dressmaker.
"We work very hard here every
one In "stock has to. A new play
every week, with rehearsals every
morning, two performances almost
every day. and always costumes to get
Oh, if it weren't for the dressmaker! I

I am very strong naturally and then
I adore my work and my audience, and
I think they are fond of me.
"The leading lady In a stock com
pany gets a great deal of admiration
and that helps one. doesn't it? Sat
I don't believe in living on admiration,
as so many do; It's rather exhausting
never to have a moment to yourself.
And Miss Timmons told me some
stories of the adoration of her mati
nee girls and matrons which would
have turned a more practical little
head than hers stories of bouquets
and anonymous presents and a little
band of devotees who follow her about
and won't even let their favorite ac
tress shop in peace.
But we were wandering from our
subject and Frank Gersten. her mana
ger, was evidently anxious for me not
to waste time, so we got back to the
question of beauty.
