THE only purpose recognized by the prison science of our day is punish ment--as means of protecting socie- ty from the disintegrating destructive effects of crime. The punitive rather than the reformative idea dominates The great end seems to ee to inhict penalty. instead of adding to the in Aiction of just penalty a wise endeav- or to reform and save the criminal to . better manhood and life. Criminals should, of course. be punished by de- priving them of their liberty for a period. but while they arc thus de- prived of their liberty the effort should always be made to reclaim them to their true selves. Even criminals are entitled to this humane consideration. and to withhold it IS a form of barbarian

WHAr's in . name? The question has gone unanswered since Sh ake- speare's time Men of noble minds have had ignoble names; 'the wisest of them alr' since Solomon's day was called Bacon. one of the sweetest sing ers of modern days was named Hogg whils some of the most pulling idiocies have proceeded from the mouths of men and women with well-sounding nameA The virtue of . name was derided by one to whom 8 distin- guIshed title was both a creation and an inheritance.

Roofing for Farm Buildings.

Slate is now much cheaper than | used to be. Shingles are dearer and generally of poorer quality a' there are now few rived shingles, that can only be made from the straightAss grained timber. Sawed shingles ab- sorb the water and rot out quickly. On all wooden roofs the pitch should be made steep. The water runs oa faster. and so the shingles being kept dryer, last longer. But we prefer 2 slate roofing. Here the pitch is q less consequence and there is safety in case of fire in neighboring build ings that cannot be had with building of inflammable material

The home market theory has given way to foreign market efforts so far as agriculture is concerned. Protection ists cling closely to the theory for manufactured goods. The scheme now is to sell abroad but to buy at home. It is little one sided but it is opening eyes faster than markets. K. C. Times.

Farm PartnershIp.

Does the son of the average farmer expect to become partner of his father at some future time? We have never yet heard an expression of that kind come from the lips of a farmer s boy. The average farmer treats his boy the same as he would a hired hand. His opinions are never asked or his wishes consulted on any matter per taining to the farm There are no in- an interest in the farm or farm life. When he has reached manhood he starts out without any fixed purpose in view; the only thing he has definite. ly settled in his mind is to leave the farm.
 A farmer may have several boys writes M E. Kingfisher in the Ohio Farmer. As fast as they reach their majority they leave home Some go to town others become tenant farm CTS while there Is plenty of land and work on the home farm for them. When the last boy is gone. as rule the farmer rents his farm and moves to town to lead retired" life and instead of trying to better and advance agriculture by his experience his counsel and influence. he simply be- comes nothing.
 As matter of course as long as the insane idea prevails that man must run over (not farm) from 80 to l60 acres of land to make a living for one family partnership business on the farla will be impractical But there is no good reason why there should not be a house at least on every forty acres of farm land. and believe t would be better to reduce it to

 he has said enough. The young men
 go back to their counters or their shut ties, and say within themselves: Well,
 he is successful man and has probably studied up the whole subject and is probably right" That one lying utte.
 ance against Bibles and churches has put five young men on the wrong track, and though the influential man had spoken only in half jest, the Echo shall come back to him in five ruined lifetimes, and five destroyed eter- mites. You see the Echoes are an octave lower than he anticipated. On the other hand, some rainy day, when there are hardly any customers. the Christian merchant comes out from the counting-room and stands among the young men, who have nothing to do, and says: Well. boys. this is dull day, but it will clear of after while. There are a good many ups and downs In business. but there is an over-ruling Providence. Years ago I made up my mind to trust God and he has always seen me through. I remember when was your age, had just come to town and the temptation of city life gathered around me. but I resisted.
 The fact Is there were two old folks out on the old farm praying cfor me, and knew it, and somehow Icould not do as some of the clerks did or go where
 some of the clerks went. Itell you. boys,
 It IS best always to do right. and there
