SUCCESSFUL CO-OPERATtON
The news story appearing in the
Dai^y Jimes yesterday relative to the
marketing .of tb^ Irish potato crop of
this, section shows . what can be ac
complished through co-operation.
Through the Florence Chamber of
Commerce the farmers of this sec
tion bad brought here representa
tives of the largest buyers of pota-
toca in the country, and as a result
the farmers, of this section were sav
ed thoutwads of dollars in marketing
their potatoes. They were in direct
touch at .all times with the. best mar
kets of. the. country and knefl just
when and just where their potatoes
would sell to the best advantage.
Heretofore the individual farmers
have jsuld their potatoes blindly not
knowipg what they were worth on
the markets of the country, and if a
farmer attempted to ship his crop he
would, likely hit a glutted market
and the £ity broker .in spine instances
would send him a hill for the freight
on his shipment and his potatoes
would ba a total loss.
But (coming together and through
the ofgan lout ion they had formpd in
the Chamber of Commerce they were
in position to demand attention and
as a result they secured the very
best market-prices for thei* potatoes'
and through this organization saved
themselves thousands of ui-!l »>-s, o)t
It demonstrates vividly just what
can be done through co-operation and

Japanese women to think of suffrage

ability of married women and also
against the injustice—or at Ipast the
unfairness—to daughters of the Japa
nese law of succession.
According to Japanese law married
women form a class of Incapacitated
persons, the other classes under the
same category being (1) minors, (2) In
competent persons (lunatics), and (3)
quasi-incompetent persons .(persons of
weak intellect, deaf, dumb or blind
persons and spendthrifts).
Married women must obtain the per

contract loans or to become surety;
fc) to do act's having for their object
the acquisition or loss of rights In Im

•Dairy Lunch" Well Known kv That
Country Long Before It Was
Introduced Here.
Long before the dairy lunch or the
eafeteria, those well-known American
Institutions into which the American
business man dnshes wi(<lly at noon
hour and helps himself from a tempt
ing array of eats, burst upon the
great republic, Albania had them.
The “pick ’em yourself’ places may
have been a novelty in the United
States ten or fifteen years ago, but
even then they were an old institu
tion in Albania.-
The carefully scrubbed marble tojv
of the American dairy lunch, resting
on a long' table of marble front and
sides, is replaced in the Albanian one
by a dainty piece of rock about six
feet long, three feet wide and four
feet deep, resting on a bnlky bit of
timber, which. In turn, is supported
by wooden legs Just as bulky.
The whole is as rugged as the moun
tains from which it all came. In the
stone, somewhere back in the past,
circularlike excavations were produced
at regular Intervals. In the bottom
of these a hot charcoal fire smolders
over which slowly cook the chicken,
the turkey, the potatoes or the rice.
At one'tnd of the rock are the knives,
forks and plates.
methods of top speed plant produc
tion are so sure of It now that they
are modeling organization plans with
physicians as their advisers.
Most of the layouts prepared for
.the, intRistrial oitymizations look for-
‘mldahle to the average man. What
with their pendant brackets and con
necting curves the structure of a thou
sand man plants gives pause even to
the modern executive. v
It is shown that the schemes
which have worked the best are after
all as old as the human nice, for they
are simply arrangements such as may
be seen in every man’s makeup.
Tlie brain, for instance, ns explained
by C. E. Kuoeppel, who has the chair
of factory management at New York
university, in his address to ids fellow
industrial experts, is the same as the
executive head or the director of a
plant or corporation. The live senses
which keep mankind In his bearings
correspond to the control of the fac
tory, that ik to superintendents and
foremen.
The medulla oblongata corresponds
to labor, and the .small bruin or cere
bellum which looks after the auto
matic functions of the body and keeps
the arms and legs and trunk active,
is translated in terms of production.
The relations of the chart for the man
ufactory and those of the perfectly
interacting machinery of the heart and
brain and imist-lcs are regarded as
virtually the-same.

Indianapolis Girl Will Have to Do
Much Explaining if Many Ac
quaintances Saw Her.
A senior of Technical high school
who prides herself on her contempt
for rouge and lip sticks went to the
photographer’s. Several class mates
helped themselves to a liberal sup
ply of “paint” just before posing,
thinking the pictures would be better.
Finally, they persuaded the senior to
try it jnst for the one time. No one
would ever be the wiser. Hesitating
ly, r'he applied the crimson puff and
the idly crimson stick and dashed Into
the studio for the final pese.^
Half nn hour later she was on the
car speeding homeward when she hap
pened to glance at the woman across
the aisle. That woman's complexion,
she thought was past forgiveness.
How could some people hear to use
that stuff and continue to appear In
public! Well, one thing was certain
—nobody would ever see hey rivaling
an October sunset. Then horrors! She
remembered she had forgot to wash
off her own “makeup.”—Iiuliafiapolls

High Speed Steel Without Tungsten.
A new high speed steel of British
origin la without tungsten in Its com
position and advantages of both a
practical and economical nature are
claimed. It Is cobalt-molybdenum
steel, the cohalt apparently acting ns
a stabilizer and as correcting certain
disadavantages said to exist in molyb
denum-tungsten steels. The new steel
is claimed to possess the highest .point
of efficiency ever obtained. The hard
ening temperature required is only in
the neighborhood of 2,0d<) degrees
Fahrenheit. The steel is also reported
to machine exceptionally soft and eas
ily. The specific gravity of como steel
is reported to tie equal to that of the
old carlton titol steel, and so 10 per
cent less than that of the tungsten
high-speed steels. As a result it is
estimated that a given weight of como
steel will produce 10 per cent more
tools than the same weight of regular
high-speed steel.
Industrial Research.
Agnjn and again during the war It
was insisted by all manner of authori
ties in England tlfaL one of the great
efforts of the future should he in the
direction of encouraging industrial re
search. This was, In fact, a war les
son, and Great Britain evidently has
no Intention of losing it. Already a
government department of “scientific
and industrial research” lias been es
tablished; while, according to the
chairman at a recent meeting of the
Institution of Electric Engineers, “uni
versities all over the country, led by
University college, London, are re
equipping their training departments.”

Franklin were handsome types of their

Tlie writer declares there has been
a distinct change in the type of the
American countenance. In colonial

Tlio habit of |i< , i> wholo-
