NEED BUSINESS RULES FOR GOVERNMENT The biggest business establishment on earth—where do you supose it is? Its headquarters is Washington D.C. The proprietor is nele Sam. The yearly turnover is about $3,600,000,000. The handling of this colossal sum calls for the display of business judgment of the rarest quality. Small wonder that there is insistent demand for years for the instituting of a national budget. This enormous mass of public business formerly was conducted in haphazard style, with much waste. There were overlappings of departments and budgets, and duplications of effort. Millions upon millions were wasted. There was sore need of business acumen in handling the business of the government. There was a time when the appropriation of as much as $1,000,000,000 by Congress evoked a hue and cry throughout the country. But this first prodigious total has been multiplied by three plus—and business methods are needed more pressingly than ever, to prevent waste on huge scale. The ideal of business management in government will be reached only when Uncle Sam's business is managed carefully and as discreetly as is the business of a gigantic private corporation or industry. There is constant need of business methods in government, so that the money of taxpayers may not be wasted or misapplied. COLLEGE MEN EXCEL AT LIVESTOCK SHOW COLLEGE MEN EXCEL AT LIVESTOCK SHOW College training is telling in agriculture, in its various branches. It is noteworthy that collegians took the greater number of honors at the twenty-fifth International Livestock Exposition in Chicago. The day is past when the full measure of success can be achieved in agriculture without special training of an educational nature. The great state universities of the Nation have agricultural departments and give training on an elaborate scale. Other colleges, universities and technical schools, give instruction and practical work in farming or in some form of soil industry. Women vie with men in taking these educational courses and in fitting themselves for scientific farming, gardening or fruit growing. Science is being applied intensively to agriculture, its activities and its problems. The young person who goes to the farm today is sadly handicapped if not educationally trained in scientific methods of farming. PEACE IS PROMOTED BY SENTIMENT The cause of world peace is fostered by talking and thinking in terms of peace. For centuries the world has talked and thought and planned in terms of war. The conviction held that wars are necessary and inevitable. When this feeling prevails among nations and peoples, the very feeling itself breeds war, sooner or later. Keep up the peace talk. Promote peace sentiment. Inculcate it in the young.Remove hatred and suspicion and warlike tendencies from the breasts of the youths of the country. In the wider intelligence of today, which means of swift and close communication between the United States and distant lands, there is basis for enlightened good will. Nations and peoples understand each other better than formerly. Who Will Receive the Presents? THE MERCHANTS & Manufacturers' Reception and Gift Night was a great success. The awards have been made by the Committee and in order that you may know to whom these gifts are to be presented, all you will have to do is visit the merchants, look at the splendid display in their windows, and see the gift presented and look for your name.

HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" COOKED NON-STARCHY VEGETABLES. NOT GOOD. (Continued.) ONIONS, GARLIC, LEEKS, AND CHIVES are non-starchy vegetables, but contain a large amount of allyl sulfid, which is always irritating to the mucous membranes and never fails to produce gas in the human digestive apparatus. There seems to be a lesser amount of this substance after they are cooked, but there still exists such a large quantity that I have never been able to find a place in the diet of a well person where they could be used, either in the raw or cooked state, without producing discomfort and gas pressure, and consequently I cannot at any time recommend them for food. Please remember that this opinion was arrived at after much experimentation with both the sick and the well, and in spite of this recommendation of every dietetic authority with whose writings and advice I am familiar. There are one or two writers whose opinions on dietetics I value very highly, but they still do not seem to have discovered that the onion cater cannot help being a walking gas factory. Out of thousands of patients who have consulted me I have not been able to find one who honestly thought that onions or garlic "agreed" with them. The only practical use to the human that I have been able to find for the onion is to try it in grease and apply as a poultice over irritated lungs. The irritation produced by the onions on the skin is sufficient to act as a counter-irritant in much the same way as a mustard plaster acts, but this irritating effect is not desirable inside of the stomach or intestines.

St. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1924 COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying SOUTHLAND'S TREES BIG ASSET—Sacramento Bee Southern California towns and cities owe much of their growth and prosperity to the policy of making themselves attractive to home-seekers. This is especially the case with Los Angeles, Pasadena, Riverside and various others noted for the beauty of their streets, gardens and homes. And this beauty comes in the main from systematic planting and care of ornamental street trees. Of the communities of the Southland which owe their origin and permanence chiefly to irrigation and culture of citrus fruits, Riverside is the oldest and best known outside of the state. And the Press of that place says the most important single factor in her fame as a beautiful city is her "tree shaded streets." It credits the pioneers of the locality with having "sensed the value" of street trees, and in particular with the laying out and adornment of Magnolia avenue. The Press gives an extended editorial review of the history of tree planting in Riverside, mentioning as favorite trees for ornament, and as attractive to Easterners, the patins, pepper, magnolias, eucalypti, carobs, acacia, and other trees that form "one of the greatest of her assets." What makes such planting the more distinctive and attractive there is the fact that the locality and its surroundings were naturally arid, without either trees or flowers. But the main purpose of the article in the Press is to counsel preservation and unseasing care of the ornamental trees which have done so much for the city's reputation, and have added so greatly to her population and business. Much that it says in this regard is applicable to Sacramento, and the neglect and indifference frequently shown here of late years toward street trees and their maintenance. Some of the streets of Riverside, it appears, are being suffered to return to desert conditions through ruthless destruction of trees, because of seifish and short-sighted purposes. MAN'S UNMEASURED CAPACITIES Man's capacities have never been measured; nor are we to judge of what he can do by any precedents, so little has been tried. This is the philosophy of Henry David Thoreau, who preferred solitude to company, and suggested that life is not for complaint, but for satisfaction. In his works you will find these ideas: "Nothing was ever so unfamiliar and startling to a man as his own thoughts." MAN'S UNMEASURED CAPACITIES Man's capacities have never been measured; nor are we to judge of what he can do by any precedents, so little has been tried. This is the philosophy of Henry David Thoreau, who preferred solitude to company, and suggested that life is not for complaint, but for satisfaction. In his works you will find these ideas: "Nothing was ever so unfamiliar and startling to a man as his own thoughts. Our thoughts are the epochs of our lives; all else is but as a journal of the winds that blew while we were here." If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost, that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them. The universe is wider than our views of it. The man is the richest whose pleasures are the deepest. The only excuse for reproduction is improvement. Nature abhors repetition. Life is so short that it is not wise to take roundabout ways; nor can we spend much time in waiting. The highest degree that we can attain is not knowledge, but sympathy with intelligence. Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something. One may be drunk with love without being any nearer to finding one's mate. There is more religion in men' science that their is science in their religion; A man's ignorance sometimes is not only useful, but beautiful, while his knowledge, so-called, is often-times worse than useless, besides being ugly. In mildness is the preservation of the world." It was an idea of Arthur Schopenhauer's that no one knows what capacities for doing and suffering he has in himself until something comes to rouse them to activity: Just as a pond of still water, lying there like a mirror, there is no sign of the roar and thunder with which it can leap from the precipice and yet remain what it is; or again rise in the air as a fountain. When water is as cold as ice, you can have no idea of the warmth contained in it. John Stuart Mill wrote in this connection that "The practical principle which guides people to their opinions on the regulation of human conduct, is the feeling that in each person's mind that everybody should be required to act as he, and those with whom he sympathizes, would like them to act."
