Temperature and Humidity.

Enjoyable living is very largely de-
pendent upon temperature and humid
ity. Temperatures above so and below
zero are each endurable only as man
makes a special effort to adjust him
self to such conditions. The happy
mean of temperature is 20, at which
point man thinks nothing about the
atmosphere few islands OF the sea
and limited section OF great elevation
Immediately under the equator enjoy
70 the year round. but the best and
most forceful types of humanity are
found where the thermometrical ex
tremes have the widest range, the eff
fort required by man to adopt himself
to such radical changes seeming in
some way to develop his best qualities
The question of humidity is also an
important one. for which there is a
great success the conditions for men
are as favorable as where there may
be a great deficiency, in either case
the extreme so affecting vegetable and
animal life and growth that living
for man is hard to obtain. The happy
medium as to humidity is found in
three foot rainfall during the year

The Better Way.

We have an inquiry from a young
man aged 20. He is a representative
Western farm boy has always lived
and worked on the farm and availed
himself of such educational advan-
tages as the local country school af-
forded. He says he expects to stay
with his father until he is of age and
then commence life for himself. He
owns team of horses and has saved
up $3.50 in money. He wants us to tell
him how he can work it so that he
may best succeed as farmer and says
that he would like to raise good stock,
grow big crops and farm in a little
better way than he has been brought
up to. This is another of those hard
questions which folks seem to like to
fire at us. So much depends upon the
young man himself. the locality where
he may settle down for business and
the sort of girl that he sits up with
Sunday evenings. If he locates where
land Is worth from $50 to $50 per acre,
he will be compelled to put more
brains and science into his work than
IL he takes homestead on some front
Ter settlement II he Is to work high
priced land and wants to farm better
than his father did, we would advise
him to go to one of the Lany excel
lent agricultural colleges and spend
what money he has got In acquiring
knowledge of the technical and scien-
tific agriculture. This would include
farm mechanics, stock breeding. judg-
ing and care, soil physics, fertilizers,
animal diseases, drainage. rotation of
crops and hundred and one practical
and valuable things which he can turn
into dollars later on in his farm work.
Two winters or SO used would easily
make SIS a month man of him il he
wished to work for some one else, or,
should he go into business on his own
hook and rent good farm, for in
stance, he would be almost certain to
make a success of his work. 1t is not
so much the practical knowledge ac-
quired as the result of such course of
study, though this Is almost invalua-
bic, as it is that such an effort Is an
eye opener for the young man, disclos-
ing to him the possibilities of his pro-
fession and awakening in him an ambi-
ton and desire to know more and oc-
cupy a higher place in his profession.
He may not do this, but instead marry,
rent farm and settle down to work in
the old fashioned way and perhaps sue
coed in a way, but he will be broader,
wiser and more successful man to do
as we suggest

Twenty years ago young farmer, a
thinker found himself with a poor,
stony and sterile New Jersey farm up
on his hands. from which the united
labor of himself and father could extort
hardly poor living. He was not very
far from New York city, where there
was an unlimited demand for pure
milk. He took up the COW and evolved
the plan of selling to city customers a
guaranteed pure milk. From that
small beginning his business has
grown until he now milks 500 cows
and receives for their product over
500. 900 per year.

A western creamery has evolved a
new scheme-that of doing the family
washings for its patrons. A laundry
outfit has been placed adjacent to the
creamery, and the steam, heat and wa
ter of the creamery plant are utilized
by the laundry under the care OF a
competent washerwoman. with the re-
suit that a great burden of work has
been removed from the farmers wife
and the farm home to the cooperative
creamery. We do not see any reason
why this scheme is not entirely practi-
cable. It certainly is worth investiga-
ton

Nature has her own way of pruning
the tree and thinning the fruit. She
uses the hail storm, the cyclone the
sleet storm. the thunderbolt, frosts,
blight. insects. fire to do her pruning
and thinning. processes seemingly
harsh and destructive, and associated
with these methods she gives a won
derful recuperative power to all vege-
table life. When too much fruit sets
upon a tree, something is almost sure
to happen to thin it out, either some
insect pest, hail storm, a high wind
OF an untimely frost.

Corn and Its Future.

The somewhat startling fact is an
nounced by men who have made a
study of the question that the produce
ton of corn has reached its limit in
this country. while the demand for IL
is bound to constantly increase. 1t il
claimed that the days of cheap corn
corn at from 10 10 % cents per hushel
are over and that the greatly in
creased domestic and foreign demand
is likely to force the average value of
this cereal to about 40 cents as against
an average value Of about 80 cents for
the past decade-in other words. that
the corn crop is likely to be worth %
per cent more for the coming ten years
than for the past ten. This fact, If 1t
prove to be well stated, will be good
news to the residents of the corn belt,
for coupled with 1t will be the certain
advance in value Of all meat commodi-
ties OF which corn is the foundation.
