WHEN AND HOW.
Time and Methods Of Farm Work De.
termine the Measure Of Success.

The work of the farmer consists
largely in stirring the soil in various
ways, but 1t is necessary to know
when and how to stir that soil to get
the most out of 1t. When and how to
do things comprise the main bulk Of
our work on the farm. The difference
between the poor farmer and the
good farmer is regulated by the differ.
ence of their opinions as to when and
how to do things.
In the west, where the frosts strike
deep into the plowed ground, that
ground should be plowed in the fall
that most needs the action Of the
frost to break 1t up, says Farmers
Review. There are some soils in
which the work of the frost seems
unimportant, this kind Of soil be-
ing mainly sandy soil. On the clay
soil the land that is plowed deep in
the fall is improved in some way by
the cold. Various agricultural stu
dents have had different conceptions
of how this work goes on, but the
principal thing is that 1t goes on.
The when and the how regulate the
profits Of the farm to very great ex.
tent. Many of our readers will re-
member that about three years ago
the rains In the spring in Illinois came
Just before the land would naturally
be plowed for the ordinary field crops.
The necessity for getting the crops
early led many farmers to plOW their
fields while the soil was still too wet
to be friable. The ground was just
in that condition in which 1t broke up
in hard Jumps. During all the season
men were seen in the fields trying to
cultivate those Jumps out Of the sur
face soil. In preparing those fields
for small grain the harrows were
sent over them again and again. That
illustrates the necessity for knowing
when to do work.
The how to do farm work is a mat
ter Of endless controversy, though In
most things some well.proven rules
are being evolved. One man on land
that does not need to be plowed deep
insists on very deep plowing and dou.
bles the amount of work to be put on
that fa'd. This means doubling the
cost Of the labor, which In these days
Of high-priced labor is a consideration
Of Importance. During the dull days Of
fall and winter the farmer has the
best time in which to study out the
when and the how.

Lucky Friday. the Thirteenth

There is one West Philadelphia man who doesn t case a hang if every day IS Friday, the thirteenth, yet he used to be one of the most superstitious of men. Last September, when the thir. teenth fell on Friday, he was cure.i. A huge safe was being raised up to the sixth floor of a Walnut street building as he was walking along the sidewalk. Just as he got under it some one call. ed, Look out!' He grasped the sit nation in an instant and there passed through his mind the thought that, since it was Friday, the thirteenth, he was sure to be caught under the heavy safe. Nevertheless, he jumped for his life and landed half in the gutter and half on the sidewalk. Then he looked around to see the havoc and discovered that the ropes had merely slipped a little, and that the safe was being hoisted up as though nothing had hap pened. As he lay stretched in the mud his hand felt something round and flat. When he arose and brushed off his clothing he still clutched the find, and upon examining it he found it to be $20 gold piece that no one ever claimed. Philadelphia Record.

PUBLIC ASKED
 FOR ASSISTANCE
CONTRIBUTIONS FOR WIDOWS AND ORPHANS OF FAIRMoNT MINE DISASTER ARE
 WANTED.

The Silver Belt is in receipt of com munication from the relief committee of the Fairmont mine disaster has sent out. The permanent relief committee, head ed by Governor William o. Dawson, to provide for the widows and orphans in distress through the recent explosion at the mines of the Fairmont Coal company at Monongah has sent out an appeal for funds that is being sent to chambers of commerce and kindred organizations all over the country.
 All newspapers are urged to aid the work by receiving contributions, ac- knowledging them through their col umns and sending them to the treasurer
 The communication follows:
 "At Monongah, w. Va, on Friday, December 6, an explosion in the mines of the Fairmont Coal company resulted in the death of approximately $50 em- ployes.
 Fully 250 widows and 1000 children are left without any means of support The most of these families live in the company houses at Monongah; the re. maining ones in various countries of Europe. The company has generously declared that the families occupying its houses may remain until other provision is made for them, but operations can. not be resumed at the damaged mines until these houses are available for the new force. Many of the resident fam. lilies will want to return to their rela. tive in their native countries in Europe The other residents families must seek community in which they can earn a living.
 Aid must be given these families to reach their new abodes and to help them establish themselves; and the families living abroad must be provided for until they can adjust themselves to their new conditions.
 Total of s2o0,o0o Needed.
 "As near as can be determined at this time almost $5O,OOO from all sources has been subscribed. Upon the basis of $500 for each widow and $l00 for each child under sixteen years of age $l75,0 900 will be required. At least $25,. 900 additional will be needed to pro. vide, on relatively the same basis, for the aged dependents of the unmarried victims, the many now unborn children and the undoubted accessions to the married victims list when complete information has been received. "The committee feels that a basis lower than the above viii not be ade. quate to properly care for the needs of the bereaved ones, and total of s20O,000 will, therefore, be required to carry out the relief work on this basis
 "The immediate needs of the resident families are amply met by the company and a committee of women from Fair. mont and Monongah.
 "All checks should be made payable to the Monongah mines relief commis, sion, J. E. Sands, treasurer, Fairmont, w. Va.
