Duiinr the peat decade the spirit ot play Use become atill more prevalent. AmonK ihese modern, keener actlviUee of life the desire for recreation has Intensified rather than diminished, and the time is coming, says the National Megatine when the usual two weeks vacation in the year will be doubled, and tbla. I think, will be a great advantage. since there is Just as much necessity for a winter fortnight as for. the summer playtime. Best of all. In this increasing interest in vacations in America is the fact that the tendency is largedy toward getting “back to nature." It la amazing .to observe how many people utilize their playtime In bring the “simple Ufa" A fortnight In the country, in the woods, on the farm, the tendency to make summer homes of the abandoned farms of New England that yean ago furnished a livelihood for our sturdy forbears. all speak the spirit of the age. Even millionaires desire simplicity. But my heart goes out not only to the Inhabitants of the city and the crowded tenements. I think, too. of the lonely farmers' wives scattered all over the country, who. year in and year out. cling to their work, faithfully performing Irksome duties with a patience that Is almost divine. It Is the very people who reside there in the beam tlful country resorts, to which the city visitors throng—it is these who need a holiday most. There, standing over the hot kitchen stove all through the summer, too busy, even to remember how tired she is. may be found the w ife of the farmer who takes "summer boarders" Let her have a change, even if It to the stifling atmosphere of the city. Let her go somewhere that she can find the spirit of play, and though it be the hot street*, the change will be just as beneficial to her as the mountain breezes ’ or the salt waves •are to her dty sisters

Ignorance of Food Values Examples of glaring ignorance food values msy well be culled from the notes of these experts who have visited the poor of the different cities. In the slums of Chicago, states John Elfreth Watkins, writing in the Reader Magazine. It was found that a woman whose husband was out of work whose family was living on a cents a day bought lettuce, a food so Innutritions that, at least when out o< season and high in price, it is a luxury even for the rich. This woman sacrificed the inexpensive but nutritious clades of foods, such as found In the list given above, for leaves eon lining over 80 per cent, of water and 15 per cent of refuse. ^tgffhfnlfy said that a man would soon starve to death on a diet of lettuce alone. Pitiable improvidence Was found in the New York slums. A watchman was feeding his family at the rate of 14 cents per person a day—all that he could afford; yst his wife bought expensive cuts of beef instead of the equally nutritions cuts of lower 'price, also large quantities of butter whole value might have

dried

Prof. John Dewey, head of the department of psychology at OolumbU university, believes children should Ik taught to call their parents by theii Christian names. Prof. Dewey was formerly a member of the faculty ot the University of Michigan, when they tell this story: The professor war working In his study one day when water began to trickle through th« celling. He ran upstairs to ess what was the matter, and found his young hopeful iq the bathroom with the flooi flooded. Prof. Dewey was about tc express his feelings when the youngster piped out: *‘I£pnT say a word.

The matter of compensation or no compensation in public office offers s -practical basis to show that municipal affairs cannot be regulated in American dtles as they are In European dUes. While officials In British dtles do willingly serve without remuneration, American dty official* are constanUy endeavoring to secure higher salaries. In England and Scotland, says the 8L Louis Republl^. all Interests may prosper through extra hon ocable standards, which elevate th# pettiest department to some dignity and at the same time culUvate a pure dvic pride But the more commercial policy Is not only preferable through-

out the United States, but i

Although it were possible to cause the best type of business administration by dispensing with compensation, such a change could not be indorsed. It would. In effect, dose public ofi to dtissns not possessed of

The no-«alary idea la con-

trary to democraUc ideals. 8L Louis has tried the honor policy. The present dty charter was formulated with the view of stimulating local dvlc pride and of exalting the character of the dty government. The salary each member of the municipal ass bly was advisedly specified at $300 a yesr. It was supposed that with a merely nominal salary, only the best clUxena would became nominees for the legislature. Instead of realising the intended purpose the arrangement developed Into an excuse. If not an Incenlive, for \oorrupUon. Here arc strong suggestions for liberal compensation. There are, however, even better reasons why compensation In public office should be commensurate with the duties, obligations and special requirements. in most departments tbs work demands special qualifications and experience, and adequate salaries must be Offered as an Inducement to

the n&st trustworthy aad

men. The public service ought to be

open to all dtlxens; In faeL

be If American prtndplee are to maintain. No compensation, or \ow compensation. would constitute a bar b poor and qualified citizens. The result of such exclusion would bs a. steadily expanding lethargy and. ultimately, debasement Men continue to be active In business until late In life, and their business Is erssflng Even men of soma means could not afford to neglect their own affairs to scf for the public without remuneration- Ev*»X reason and all experience seem to be contrary to the no-salary pohey. The preeent tendency for Increase In compensation looks to the safest conditions * In municipal administration.

When an official Is wall paid

compelled to give satisfaction. When the compensation la reasonable there is opportunity in public office for cltlwho have no money of their own. when the remuneration Is ado-

rns toward oorrup-

provs of the foreign plan of giving no compensation K is better to ratify the

idea of being liberal.

HINTS FOR FARMERS

If Chare is no convenient clover or bhte grass pasture to which bogs can have access In summer and autumn excellent green pasture can .be provided by sowing rape, which comes on quickly and may be pastured early or late. pg'Yt grow* rapidly and condones to grow after It Is pastured down, says Farmers Advocate. Good bog growers very properly claim fhat bogs prepared for the fattening procees by'good pasture will take on three pounds of flesh mow from tl»e same quantity of feed necessary and add one pound in cold weather to a bog that has been kept In

a pen.

The grass Is cooling and laxative and contracts the besting qualities of the grain. Dairy alopo, fruits ond vegetable* baas the same beneficial effects as

grass.

They with gram should form the principal summer diet of bogs, and with 'IK* worms and insects obtained in pasturing the hogs will sustain a healthy .growth until the fattening procees begins. Of coarse the summer pasture of the bog should hare plenty of par- water and shaded damp ground to which the bogs can go to cacape the beet when not feeding.

The main nae of oats on the farm is for horse feeding, and no feed will take the place of them for this purpose. The practice of feeding corn, and com only, to work horses has rained more than one borac, and It is high time that the American farmer finds and adopts s better method of taking care of his horses. Until oar horses are fed better we wMl bare to do with a second class bone. It Is the rale In many parts of the country where corn is the principal crop to fet-J corn exclusively as a grain ration. This la wrong. Corn Is far from the proper food. For this purpose no grain exceeds oats, and every b should have them If possible. They give the horse Jost the needed vitality for the work. Raise oats if for nothing more than hone feed. The hone needs

the best feed.

Clows ore healthier when they have salt. Every dairyman who bai among valuable stock has noticed the Improvement they "make not only in tone of health, but in the yield of milk. Recent Inreetlgatioos along this line show that at the Mississippi expert tnent station three cows were kept wit&ool aa ft for fon- weeks and tbetr milk record kept during the last two weeks of this period; men they were riven ll£ twari allowance of gait for tw^Vcekx and on comparing the milk records It was found that the cows gave 454 pounds of milk during the first period, when salt was withheld, and 604 pounds daring the second period. when salt was fornlsbed. a difference of 110 pounds of milk In

weeks tn favor of salting.

The saying often appUeJ tv docks (hat "they eat more than they are worth" is no doubt a very uujuet one. Any breeder raising the Pekin dock on a large scale win prove to yon by actual experience that dock lings eat in propoctiao to their growth than

other poultry.

Ex]ierimebl has demonstrated that with the same quantity of food and care ducklings In seventy days from the shell may be made with proper handling to weigh eight to ten pounds per pair, while chicks In the some length of time will only weigh from three to four pounds per pelr.—W<
