HARVEST IS ON
Prospects Are Excellent for a Good
Crop in Stearns County This

There is every reason to believe
that wheat is going to be good
crop, though not phenomenal. The
hot weather of ten days ago hurt il
some, especially that which grew on
light soil. But on the whole the
wheat stands we'll and the heads are
of good size and pretty well filled

ty farmers will be in good shape this
fall and merchants look for good
business.
Harvest is in full swing in Stearns
county and another week will see the
grain all cut.
In some places, on the high and
light land, everything is finished anc
some of the grain is already in stack
The threshers are already at work

MOTHERS SHOULD BE PAST rs.
At Least That Is the Conclusion of Dr..
Bella Revesz.

Bella RevesZ.
After an exhaustive examination of
the causes that determine the size and,
weight of newly born children DR.. Bella
Revesz comes to the conclusion that
heredity has nothing to do with it.
The size of the child depends entirely
on the age of the mother, he thinks,
and the older she is the bigger and
stronger the child is likely to be, re-
gardless of the stature and strength
either of the parents or grandparents.
Speaking generally, he finds that
the children Of very young mothers
are likely to be small and iil-nurtured,
while those born to won;an mere than
twenty-five are apt to :1e large sad ro-
bust. He considers tie reason very
simple, the woman Of twenty-five be-
ing fully matured, SO that no l'rarish-
ment is expended upon her deye!op-
ment.
From this position the doctor at
tempts to explain the racial character
istics of various peoples. Thus the
Scandinavians, who make late mar
riages, have maintained high stature
and robust physique.
On the other hand in the South of
France and in Southern Italy very
young girls are given in marriage, and
in consequence the race has dwindled
in height and frame and even in ener-
gy and initiative. Hebrews iE Poland
are conspicuous example of the evil
of early motherhood.
The doctor thinks that the same
principle may account for the small
ness of the Japanese, and he is sure it
does for the degeneracy of the Hindus.
1t causes the average height and
build of city people to be inferior to
that of peasants, and it tends to cause
physical retrogression in the leisure
class, wherein girls marry young, as
compared with the class of workers,
in which the young women have to
take up trades or domestic service for
several years before they marry.

RAILWAY BEAUTY SPOTS.
Phlox and Hydrangeas for Stations
Blue Grass for Right Of Way

Phlox and Hydrangeas for Stations
Blue Grass for Right Of Way.
One of the good things for which
people have to thank the railroads is
the progress they are making in beau.
tifying their right of way.
1t is the practice of the Pennsylva.
mia, as Moody's Magazine points out
to surround it's passenger stations with
little parks with terraces and grace
fully curving paths and roadways. To
care for these station parks is part OF
the duty of the maintenance Of way
department, just as it is to keep the
rails and ties in good order. Flowers
and shrubbery are planted in artistic
plots and gardeners keep them fresh
and flourishing.
At a station on the Long Island
railroad, which is subsidiary o. the
Pennsylvania, 600 trees and shrubs
besides beds of phlox and hydrsngeas
were set out last year. For another
station on the Long Island 425 shrubs
and twelve trees have been ordered OF
the so-called perennials and ever
greens.
In the open country, too, far from
towns, the Pennsylvania has adopted
the policy of making its right of way
pleasant to lock at. Slopes of insight
ly rock or dirt are transformed into
green terraces.
Henceforth the standard roadbed
when the tracks are in cut, will in
clude the sodded slopes. Blue grass
used for sodding will prevent the
erosion which has given engineers sc
much trouble in times past. In help
ing to solve the drainage problem
