There is no form Of benevolence that

ceptibie results than that OF looking
after and providing for the entertain
ment OF the children Of large cities.
The efforts 10 find occupation for the
mental and physical energies OF chill
dren have resulted in the discovery OF
many ingenious plans. City play
grounds are now of almost universal
adoption in all civilized countries. But
the city farm for children is an inno-
walton that has not as yet been so gen.
orally introduced. 1t has proved such
q success where IL has been tried. how
ever, that there will surely soon be
play farms in every American city as
regular and abiding institutions A
city vacant lot located in the thickly
populated section OF New York and
containing something less than one
acre has for the second season been
cut I'D into farms that are just four
feet one way by eight feet the other.
Each OF these tiny land parcels is put
under the care of a small boy or girl
to be farmed. And do the youngsters
take to this farm enterprise? Well.
there are about five applicants for
every farm. They love it so well that
there is difficulty in persuading them
to quit, during the planting season, at
luncheon time. Those in charge OK this
play farm say that 1t has proved a
great source OF health and happiness
to the children. And. while 1t is not
particularly meant to be Instructive, II

Whether or not there were any
