from New York city, in which Mrs. Henry
Parsons has been interested for many
years. Miss Ella r. Walsh. the demon
strator. is hoarse from saying:
This is a school farm exhibit. The
farm is located at 54th street and 11th
avenue. the crowded West Side quarter
of New York. We teach the children to
plant several kinds Of vegetables. and
there are two paintings q year. so that
all the children in the neighborhood can
be accommodated Etc. etc. etc.
1t is very nice little farm. showing
the children at work in little beds of
carrots and other useful and highly nu-
tritious vegetables To present an at
mosphere of reality Mrs. Parsons has
real grass growing IL the model She sent
ing that they plant some real nice seed for
her. and they replied they would. Where
upon they planted timothy seed and COW
cred it over with mosquito netting.
That seemed like complying with her
wishes. But when they came to look at
ty sparrows had run of with the mosquito
netting and had Toasted on the seed. So
Mrs Parsons has to content her spirit
with bunch OF sod.
Catching Germs With a Net.
The school children are very much en-
tranced with Miss Walsh and her exhibit.
They fingered near. like the lamb in the
poem. and seemed to have a great de-
sire to pull up some of the plants by
the roots. They shifted the paper flow
ers (there are a few which have been
springled with perfume. and each and
every one Of them points at the little doll
which has a butterfly net In her hands
and says:
THAT one is catching tuberculosis
germs with net"
At which all giggle.
And then the teacher would come along
and say:
Sec. children. the school farm. They
teach all sorts of little poor boys and girls
how to plant flowers and play. Over here
is a little house where the girls learn
10 serve tea and cakes and all sorts Of
perfectly fascinating things. Come. chill
dren."
And they pass out-and will probably
write compositions on what they saw.

atmosphere of learning. They thought it
would be that way but when one nice
quiet group of 500 boys and girls tried to
get inside of one of the model cottages
built for two, there was a ten-minute
rough house. But what difference does
that make between school children? They
were out to see what are the benefits OF

The children insulted the cows. Their
presence was explained by 800 out of
1000 pupils by the mere remark that they
belonged to the market people across the
street. The thousandth child (the smart
one who always gets 100 plus on the re-

NEW YORK GROWING DEMO-
 CRATIC.

Not only are the opportunities of the national democracy bright ening in New York, but the pros poets were never better for demo. cratic success in the state cleo tion, for which the nominations of both parties have just been made.
 It will be recalled that two years ago New York state came near to going democratic, despite the popularity of the republican nominee. Governor Charles s. Hughes. In fact, that state did give, excepting the nominee for governor, a small democratic majority.
 Governor Hughes was one of the few candidates on the re publican ticket who ran a success ful race.
 Lieutenant Governor Le wi 8 Stuyvesant Chanler and almost the entire democratic ticket, with the exception of the head of it, were overwhelmingly elected, and it is Lieutenant Governor Chan Ter who now heads the demo- cratic state ticket and who will oppose Governor Hughes.
 The situation in New York is anything but encouraging from a republican standpoint. The nomination of Governor Hughes was brought about over the more or less silent but, nevertheless, emphatic protest of the republi- can state machine. Governor Hughes, therefore, goes before the state with a half hearted and perfunctory support on the part of the republican mac | inc lead CTS, which means defection and bolting in the ranks.
 On the other hand the New York state democracy has never presented a more united front. Unity and harmony prevail every where in the democratic councils of the state, even to the tempor- ary truce between Murphy and McCarren.
 But democratic sentiment has grown and been strengthened in New York through other causes than disaffection in the republi. can ranks. The national plat form and ticket have attracted a favorable sentiment upon their own merits, and predictions are now freely made that Bryan and Kern will carry the state by an overwhelming majority.
