WHY EYEsIGHT FAILS
INFERIOR ARTIFICIAL LIGHT FIRE.
0UENTLY THE CAUSE!

Ii'uminauts OF the Past, one and All,
Have scrions Defects-Acetyicne Gas,
With Ifs Clear, Unwavering, Yet Soft
Flame Cannot Hurt the Eyes.
New York. June 20.-No one can go
into our schools or meet a group of
children on the street without noticing
how large number of them wear
spectacles. The proportion seems to
increase yearly. and there are many
more who ought 20 wear glasses. The
experience Of one teacher might be du-
plicated by the score. She knew Alice
was inattentive and she thought she
was unusually stupid. She said so
TO the principal and sent note TO
the mother, requesting that the child
be helped at home If she wished her
to keep up with her class. One day
after a blackboard explanation, the
teacher called upon the child and found
that she had not seen what had been
written. She was kept after school
and by dint of much sympathetic ques-
tioning Miss c. found that Alice had
never been able to see what was put
on the board and that her head had
ached so often and so hard that she
frequently failed to hear what was
said.
Such a condition may be caused by
lack of proper food. but in our Ameri-
can homes it is usually due to the poor
quality of the artificial light. The vel
low, insufficient light of the ordinary
kerosene lamp. with its smoky chin
ney, is'about as bad for the eyes as
can be imagined. The Pickering light
from coal gas Jet is but little better.

yet been found. 1t gives clear white.

rays Of the sun that even colors ap-

Fortunately, acetylcuc is very easily
and cheaply produced, and the simple
apparatus necessary can be purchased
and installed in any home ut Il very
moderate cost, and the acetylene can
be piped to convenient points in the
house where light is needed. 1t is
then lighted and extingushod and used
exactly like common city gas.
Acetylenc is rapidly coming into
common use in homes. churches.
schools and institutions of all kinds.
and it is reasonable to expect that as
its use in the home increases, there
will be fewer defective eyes. particu-
larly among children. Poor eyesight
and the many ills resulting therefrom
will undoubtedly be much reduced by
the use of this new illuminant.

Thinking one of his nephews was

Stalking and Tieing TnYnatoes.

For the family garden l favor stalk
ing and tieing tomato plants, for the
following reasons: l have never grown
tomatoes on large scale, so can't say
whether it will pay to stake them or
not where growing them in great guam
titles. Most every family wants a few
vines in their kitchen garden. and not
one garden in twenty is absolutely
chicken proof, and about the time your
tomatoes are becoming ready for the
table, you go in your garden and find
the finest ones ruined by the chickens,
when they are grown in the sprawling
way, but not so when you have them
trained to shapes. Mr.. Chicken may
get few next to the ground, but after
that he is done for the season. and you
can let chickens run among your vines
and catch insects and they won't bother
your tomatoes. This is great advan-
tage in garden culture, / think. Then
you can keep them in a much smaller
space, and keep them free from weeds
and your garden looking neater by
training TO stakes. When the vines
grow at will they can be kept clean till
about the time they begin to get full
of fruit, then down they go, and who
hasn't seen them in the most of garden
soil, in very short time overrun with
all manner of weeds, and perhaps fine
tomatoes lying around on the ground
and sunburned so they We're ruined,
but with them tied TO stakes you can
keep an earth mulch in dry weather
and keep them thrifty and bearing
right along. Or, if you prefer, when
they become full of fruit just cover
all the ground between the vines with
straw, leaves or something for mulch
and they will be all o. X. the rest of
the season. l believe pruning to
single vine and tieing to Il stake much
the better way for garden culture

skim Milk For Pigs.

On any farm where pigs are raised
and skim milk is available, 1t may be
fed with profit in connection with
grains of various kinds. To use the
skim milk without the grain is not get
ting the best out of It. The usual
plan of feeding skim milk to pigs
from two TO three months old is TO
make a mixture of mlddlings or
ground corn with five times the guam
tity of skim milk. This ration fur
nlshes about the same nutriment that
does the milk of the SOW, and the pigs
will thrive on 1t. Some pig raisers
try 4 ration consisting of one part of
middlings, one part of oil mealand four
parts of ground corn mixed with water
in lieu of the skim milk, and find it
fairly satisfactory. Considerable care
must be used in the feeding of young
pigs, and it pays to try and arrange a
ration which will keep them growing

It is said that parsnips are by far
the richest of the root crops for feed
ing. They are fed largely TO COWS in
the Channel Islands, we are told.
though in this country parsnips are
reserved for table use. In reference
to this matter of parsnips for cows
Mr.. A. II. Franklin in referring to his
own experience in the American Dairy
man says:
while the yield Of parsnips is not
so great rs the yield of turnips. man
giles or carrots, their extra value as
well as appetizng qualities should
make them especially valuable as feed
for mich cows. Another feature in
their favor is the pleasant flavor.
'ln feeding parsnlps my experience
is confined to the surplus from the gar
den at digging time i'm the spring. We
never fail to grow a row or two of
parsnips for house use as soon rs the
frost goes out in the spring. In our
anxiety to have enough we usually
have few bushels to spare. These
go to the neighbors and to the cows.
them the most At any rate. they give
an additional milk flow, and we never
have been able to detect any obiec-
tionable odor in the milk. 1t is our in
tention hereafter TO put in about five
times as many Darsnips as usual and
give the cows liberal treat next
spring.
zone reason why parsnips are not
grown for stock or for home use as
generally as they should be is that they
really are not developed until the frost
draws out of the ground in the spring.
Then the feeding time is so short be-
tween snow and growing time that the
feeding or eating stage is passed be-
fore any considerable quantity can be
used. The practice of digging parsnlps
in the fall and wintering them in cell
lars is obtainable, for the reason that
in the fall parsnps are very poor vege.

The Home Garden.

The suckers of gooseDerrles, currants
| and red raspberries should be rlgidly
pulled.
Most flower seeds can be sown dur
Ing May, and greenhouse and window
plants may be put into the open
ground.
In making the home garden do not
overlook garlic, chives, shallots, herbs,
etc, as they are exceedingly desirable
for flavorlng purposes.
This seasons growth OF raspberry
canes should be plnchcd off ana they
will throw out fruit laterals. This is
important, for on it depends next sea-
sons crop Of berries.
Early varieties of dwarf peas can be
grown between the rows of tomato
plants. BY the time the tomatoes are
large enough to occupy the ground the
peas will be out of the way. The pea
vines may be removed or left as a
mulch for the tomatoes.
The seeds of sweet corn and all the
wrinkled varieties of peas should be
sown and a little later cucumbers,
melons, squashes, pumpkins and
gourds may be put in the open ground.
fork full of well-rotted manure in
the hill is the proper food for these
plants.
The plants from pansy seed sown in
window boxes or under glass in Feb
ruary and March may be set out and
made ready for blossoming later. Seed
sown now in rich soil viii make plants
that will come into bloom in mid
summer and keep 1t up, if given plenty
of water.
For the main crop of tomatoes small,
stocly, quickly grown plants are best
for transplanting in garden or field,
but for extra early. potted plants that
are almost ready to bud may be used.
These should be transplanted without
removing much Of the earth from the
roots. BY this method ii is possible to
have ripe tomatoes by July /.
Successlonal paintings of corn and
peas should be made at intervals of
ten days or two weeks. Some plant
early and late kinds on the same day
and thus secure a succession, but it is
the more common practice to make a
series of paintings of the same variety.

Public good must ever be preferred

many Americans were willing to give
all that they had for the country, we Of
to-day ought at least to be willing to
forego mere personal advantage when

him the bridegroom, best man and
others remained silent from sheer
