Doesn't it sound reasonable and
fair?
The above editorial from the Cincin-
natl Post is good enough and timely
enough 10 print for the benefit OF PEG
pie in Richmond. Just as little chill
dren in Cincinnati take big chances
and think they are having great fun
running along side of and in front Of
moving automobiles, so does the same
thing happen in this city. The other
evening, while an automobile was 60
ing down South Sixth street little
boy stood in the middle OF the street
until the machine was almost on him
and then jumping aside, ran along side
Of it for several feet. The little chap
saw the machine coming and deliber-
ately took the chance. possible beIiev-
ing he was having fun" Familiarity
with danger breeds contempt and the
danger from even a slowly moving au-
tomobile is no mean thing. Just as
the Post says, parents should warn
their children, especially those who
play in the streets. to be exceedingly
careful and not take dangerous risks.
The streets are meant for vehicles and
with automobiles and carriages con-
stantly passing afford very insecure
play ground for children.
AS the Post says. the automobile is
here TO stay and as the years go by
will be seen in constantly increasing
numbers. Since their introduction
scarcely ten years ago the trend has
been to build cars at more and more
reasonable prices, placing machines
within the reach of an increasing num-
Der of people all the time. Hand in
hand with the development Of the
pleasure automobile has gone the com
mercial automobile which, in nearly
all large cities, is taking the place Of
worn out horses III transporting heavy
loads.
Just what an important part the
| automobile industry takes in our cOun-
try is shown by the accompanying fig
ures showing the growth of the in
dustry during the past ten Years:

automobile industry there is today in

The Umbrella in the East.

The first Englishman to carry an
umbrella was one Hanway, who lived
at the end of the eighteenth century.
He was regarded as an eccentric in
dividual, but before he died, in 1876,
the fashion he set was adopted by So
ciety in general. Hanway was not the
originator of the umbrella. Among the
Greeks and Romans some such article
was very common, though it was re-
garded as a purely feminine append
age, and one which men might never
condescend to adopt But all over the
East the umbrella has for generations
been we'll known as an insignia of
power and royalty. On the sculptured
remains of Egyptian temples one sees
representations of kings going in pro-
cession with umbrellas carried over
their heads. Even in India to-day
some of the great maharajahs still
call themselves Lords of the Umbrel-
Ia" and in an address presented by
the king of Burma to the viceroy of
India in 1855, the British representa-
tive is described as the monarch who
reigns over the great umbrella-wear-
ing chiefs of the East" One has only
to walk through the streets of any In
dian town today to see how important
a social distinction the umbrella has
become. For native to go without
an umbrella in the streets of Calcut-
ia, for instance, is practically mark
of egradation.-The Boys World.

Plant Which Catches Flies.

One of the most curious and inter-
esting plants known is the Pinguicula
Caudata. The name is as long as the
plant is small, but what it lacks in
size it manages to make up In other
ways. 1t is very modest looking lit
tie plant, with pretty leaves and a
very pretty flower. But in spite of its
modest looks and small size, it is a
terrible scourge to all insects, for 1t
has all the sticky qualities of fly
paper, and whenever thoughtless
fly or insect lights on the leaves 1t is
never able to get away again, for the
sticky substance holds it tight.
AS the insects pass this little plant
they are tempted by its inviting ap-
pearance TO rest on its pretty leaves
and smooth down their wings awhile.
But when this little fly-catcher once
gets them on its leaves, 1t holds them
there until they are all absorbed, for
insects are part of the food which
goes to enrich the constitution of this
strange little plant. Wnen the leaVes
are covered with insects the little
plant thrives and flourishes.
This natural insect-catcher would
certainly be great boom in many
houses that are troubled with mosqui-
toes and Sies, for If a few of the lit
tie plants were placed about the room,
their leaves would soon attract all the
little buzzing pests that are so bother
some during the hot weather.-By

Cape Codders in Winter.

The Cape Cod newspapers now in
terest more than ever the fellow who
knows something about the cape and
the islands. They begin to TEEN with
little paragraphs about Cape Cod
folks who have been away for the
winter, either at work or visiting, and
who have lodged the bleak winds of
the winter time. Now they are be-
ginning to go home again, and the
papers record their arrival. Some
have been to Boston. Here and there
one has been to New York. A throng
has been right here in Brockton, the
most popular of the Massachusetts cit
les for the Cape residents.
These moving native Cape Codders
get five or six months at home, enjoy
themselves hugely and in many cases
pick up a good bit of money. and
when fall comes are hale and hearty
and crowded perhaps in the pocket
book. Then during the winter they
have just as good time in the large
towns and the cities as the rest Of us
do.-Brockton Enterprise.

Fresh Blood in Corn.

One of the best corn growers in
Central Illinois tells me he buys each
section several bushels of the best
bred seed corn he can get and mixes 1t
with his own seed. This practice has
been kept up for several years, and
whether or not the good results are due
to the infusion of the fresh blood there
Is surely a question here we'll worth
studying. This grower has always Sc
lected the big, mature ears for seed,
those ears which were somewhat coarse
and which would net stand much oil
a show in score card contest. Then,
by introducing the finely finished ears
from another reliable v5rn breeder ne
has succeeded in keeping his corn
much above the average size ears, and
with a fine finish over top and butt,
which in itself is high bred charac-
teristic. Corn growers usually get
Their entire seed supply when they
start out to improve the corn. The
method of this one grower in using
home grown seed as his foundation
and introducing fresh seed Of the same
variety from, another grower is inter-
esting and we'll worth following up

about but little practiced, except Incl

Glover crops are too valuable to be
plowed into the soil; 1t pays better to
feed the clover to the stock and use

The incidental method of green ma

Green FORAGE for Hogs.

A timely bulletin has just been is
sued from the Missouri Experiment sta
ton by Dean H. j. Waters, giving the
results of some experiments to deter
mine the value Of different forage
crops for hogs.
Thirty-six pigs weighing about fifty
pounds each were fed in lots on differ
ent forage crops in connection with
corn until they were ready for market,
accurate account being kept of the
cost of gains made.
In cheapness of gains, the feeds used
ranked as follows: Corn and skim
milk, cheapest; corn arI alfalfa, sec
ond; corn and red clover, third; corn
and bluegrass, fourth; corn and rape,
fifth; corn and ship stuff, sixth.
A saving of about rs cents hundred
in the cost Of gain was effected by
using green clover instead of fresh
bluegrass. A saving of 81 a hundred
was effected by using alfalfa Instead Of
bluegrass.
When it is realized that alfalfa comes
on early, and when properly clipped
stays green all summer, and until the
very hard freezes of early winter, its
importance sa hog pasture is appar-
ent. Glover yields more forage per
acre than bluegrass, and as shown by
these experiments has much higher
feeding value. 1t is of the utmost i'm
portanee therefore to provide this sort
of pasture for hogs rather than to re-
quire them to run on a bluegrass pas
ture. or even worse than bluegrass, e
timothy pasture, or even far worse
than this, to eonfine them in dry lot
in the summer time.
This bulletin recommends a success
sion of crops for profitable hog pas
ture.

Farm Facts and Eancies.

Hogs need clean, pure water as much
as the rest of : the stock. See that
they get it.
Perhaps you do not not realize 1t,
but the dearest animal on your farm
is the cheap scrub.
Which do you keep? The cow that
makes more than she eats or the COW
that eats more than she makes?
1t is impossible to plant an orchard
or windbreak in the winter time, but
it is possible and profitable to plan one
or both.
Fungous diseases and insect pests
can be kept from taking the profits OF
the orchard this next season by faith
full, judicious spraying.
An argument in favor of the open
head in fruit trees is that the fruit on
such trees does not rot so badly as that
on trees with dense heads.
The five to eight quarts of milk
day cow will never return the farmer
an adequate profit, unless the per-
centage Of butter fat is high.
First the framework. then the trim
mings. So with stock-raising Feed 10
get the biggest kind of growth, then
lay on the fat as fast as possible.
A dairy cow must be given more feed
than just enough for her own support
if she is TO be relied upon to give any
thing for the support of her owner.
The conditions under which the pigs
are kept has as much to do with deter
mining The quality of pork which will
be produced as has the quality Of the
food.
If there is anything that makes a
disreputable outfit it is an old fea-bit-
ten horse hitched to rattletrap of a
buggy, when the occupant of the buggy
uses for a robe patched quilt.
In cultivating the plum and cherry
orchards remember that 1t must be
shallow enough to avoid breaking the
roots, for the broken roots send up
shoots that suck the life of the tree.

Thieksnina a clover Stand.

Where last seasons seeding of clov-
er has made only partial stand, some
work must be done pretty soon now IN
Strengthening the stand. A partial
stand Of clover is about as difficult to
handle as partial stand of corn, for
one dislikes to lose whatever percent
age of stand has been secured. In the
first place, don't turn under even one
fourth of a stand. If your soil is rath-
er heavy, sow your fresh seed early SO
that the seed will work down into the
screvices when early rains and late
SHOWS will cover it. On light soils the
seed should be covered by narrowing,
and it should be done later in the sea-
son. With very thin stand l would
: sow from four to six pecks OF early
oats and cut it off for hay.-L. G.

w AY OUT AT SEA.
There the Sailor Gets the Hardest
Work of All.

Work of All.
The life of a seaman Is not lived en-
tirely in port. When cruising out on
the broad ocean we steer clear from
the tracks laid for the mail ships,
choosing a painless waste where there
is uninterrupted target range. should
like to write Of 81 days out Of sight
of land, just cruising, and drilling as a
long cruise, but when l hear sailor
men telling tales of more than a year
afoat on an old wind-jammer | am
ashamed to mention it; although | can
not leave off wondering where all the
blue comes from. Has the ocean drunk
from the heavens until they have
grown pale, or is the sky merely a
mirror Of the oceans sapphire?
In the calmest weather there are al
ways great blue swells far out at sea,
so blue, so free from whitecaps that
one requires but slight imagination,
by looking through half-closed lids, to
see great rolling meadows of gentians.
This is where all the pretty little for
malities of port life are laid aside
the moment the anchor is on deck, the
ships flag and the union jack are fold
ed away, and their staffs taken down,
while simultaneously with their lower
ing an ensign mounts to the gaff and
the admiral's flag shrinks on the main
truck.
It is at sea we get in our hard work,
and there is so much of it that half of
the crew GOO men} are always on
duty.
If for the cruise you are chosen as a
helmsman, you are exempt from sea
watch, deck work, etc.
1t isn't bit jolly to stand trick
at the wheel; it is two hours on and
four hours off, day and night. Not a
