A Desert Lighthouse. (From The American Boy.) Prairie schooners a* the long can vas covered wagons which cross tho deserts of Arizona are called, are guided by the only desert lighthouse in the world. The lighthouse markes tv? nnsitlon of a well, the only place Where water can be found for fifty lure? mites to tne eastward and thirty miles in any otiier direction. Many a wayfarer in htia vast, waterless region had died of thirst practically within sight of the well. It waa . a .tragedy of thia sort which led tito erection of tho beacon. A boy, perishing of thirst, had fallen in the last stages of exhaustion. When night came, he noticed the light from the well keeper's cabin burning dimly in tho distance. With a last heroic ef fort, the boy reached the cabin. Thia gave the weel Keeper an idea, and nov every night a light flashes out from the only desert lighthouse in th? world. Thc Feminine Idea.

CASTOR IA For Infects sad Children In Hen r or Over 30 Year* Always beets tba Signature of SEEKS IO IMPROVE il WAREHOUSE SYSTEM 1 Manning Plans to Urge Some Changes in Law to Safe guard Receipts. Speaking last night of the open ing session of thc joint meeting of tie conference for tho common good and the South Ca n>? i nu Cou- ] terence of Charities and Corrections, Gov. Manning discussed from the standpoint of the fainior the prob- , lem of marketing the cotton crop of 1915. Viewed as a whole, he said, he thought that the situation in which cotton planters, found them selves this year was distinctly en couraging. The cost of production of cotton had been cut, great quantities of foodstuffs hud been raised at home , and the people bad economized, ??nv. Manning said that in view of these 1 facts, if the farmers had only tills < season's croo of cotton to market, ' they would have nothing to worry ? about. However, tne fact that a largo ? part of last year's crop was still un- y sold complicated the situation decid- ? eily. The governor said that he bc- ' lieved that proper system of ware- 1 housing thc cotton raised thin season, cooperation between the merchants. 1 bankers and farmers and the federal ' reserve banking system would save 1 the day provided farm?rs sold their ' cotton with tne greatest care. "In i i order to . get farmers and others to ' warehouse cotton and not throw it on ' the market regardless of price," Bald ' the governor, "lt is essential to have warehouses, to havo low rates of in surance and to have a low rate of in terest on colton loans." The Warehouse System. Aside from its able treatment of tho marketing problem. Gov. Man ning's address last night was chiefly important because in the outlined improvements ho intended to ask thc nezt general assembly to make In the present State cotton warehouses sys tem, all of which he believed would tend to sufeguard the value of ware house receipts aa collateral. "I am In favor of a state system of warehousing cotton," said Gov. Man ning. "However, I intend to recom mend to the next general assembly certain changea in o;ir present state system which I believe will safeguard our warehouse receipts. The changes in the system Walch I intend to rec omend arc: First, that managcra of the warehouses in the state system bo disinterested parties, neither owners of the warehouses nor of cotton stored in them; second, that cotton in warehouses In the stato system, bc graded by an official grader; third, that the state warehouse commission, ..ave inspectors and weighers to visit thc warehouses in the state system and check up the number of bales In them, the weight of tho bales and the grades of cotton to see If these are aa. represented in the state waro houB receipts. "If th receipt for cotton ware housed under the ai ate system repre sents the value given on its face. I believe that it will be eagerly sought and readily accepted security for loans," declared Gov. Manning. Knows thc Subject. In his address last night, ?lie gov ernor showed an intimate knowledge of the problems connected with grow ing and financing the cotton crop. This was to be expected as ho isa farmer and before becoming governor was also a banker. Gov. Manning said that if ho w?ro In a position to make rules to govern cotton planters in marketing this sea son's crop he would provide tiiat no cotton was to be Sold below the cost of production that tho whole crop was to be sold slowly, that none of it was to be sold until the price reached tbe cost of production or just over it and, that the marketing of cotton by individuals take place only as 'their debts made it necessary. Gov. Manning declared that when the federal reserve banks or banks In the norla lent money at 4 per cent, to the banks In the cotton belt, thc last named banks should lend it to farmers on cotton warehouse receipts at 6 per cent.-Columbia State. Two Girl tansers. (From The Washington Post) Oconto, Wis.-Wearing men's clothes, except for bloomers In place of trousers, two Oconto girls , are op erating a 76-acre farm a mlle south of Brookside.

They whis tle, talk farm, and stock Just like men, and say they are thoroughly enjoy ing themselves. "We are perfectly Independent and making a good Hying," Miss Powell said. "We. wouldn't be bothered with a man under any circumstances. He woud only be in the way. We are free to do just ?ts we piesse, nnd there is no one to boss us. The. land is owned by Miss Bundy and her two sisters and myself, and we do . all the work ourselves.
