credit side OF the child. The diff
ference if there be any, is the
amount OF damages which the law
entities the parent. Thus, the
law provides, the younger the
child is, the less would be the
proportional damages allowable
because in the early part of the
child's life, it is unable to earn
any money.
One factor which will prob
ably enter these computations, is
the fact that the law requires
that every child be sent to school
until its fourteenth year 1t is
hardly possible that the child
wouff be able to earn its board
up to its fourteenth year, even
by working in the vacation peri
DDS. While going to school the
child could hardly be self sup
porting. The time from its four
teenth year, until OF age is seven
years. Suppose that its average
wage is So per week, for the
seven wears. it would earn $416
per year. or total of $2,912 in
the seven years. The board,
clothing, etc. would at least
amount to one half of this
amount, and would the other half
pay for the support OF the child
up to the time when it began to
earn money? These will probably
be more points discussed by the
attorneys in the case, yet Jacob
Price places his financial loss at
$4,000, and that is the only fac
tor which may be considered in
the allowance of damages, ac-
cording to law.
Tragic Death of Boy.
The accident in which Russell
Price lost his life happened in fhe
heart of the down town district
of Plymouth, on Sunday, Sep
tember q, 1908. With his faith
er, Jacob +. Price, the boy, had
come to town, from their home
just west OF the city limits. Ac-
cording to the allegations con-
tanned in the complaint, the faith
er stopped in front OF the Shaded
drug store and while talking to
a friend, the boy climbed upon,
and began playing around large
iron weighing scales, (which
stood at the junction OF the ce-
meht sidewalks. on the southeast
corner of Michigan and CAIRO
streets. The scales. was an iron
one, about six feet in height, and
weighed about $50 pounds. The
complaint alleges that the bot
tom OF the scales extended part
ly over the edge of the sidewalk
in manner easily tipped from
behind. The boy climbed upon
the scales and uptipped them.
In seeking to get away, the lad
fell back of the scales with his
head upon the cement sidewalk
on Caro- street. The top OF the
heavy scales fell upon and struck
the boy on the neck. breaking it
and causing his death within a
few moments.
Notice of the accident was serv-
| ed upon Mayor H. A. Logan on

IS A 7-YEAR-0LD BOY
A PAYING INVESTMENT?
Question as to Whether He is a Financial
Loss or Gain to His Parents up to His
Twenty First Birthday Will Be De-
cided in Price Damage Suit.

What is a seven-year old boy
worth in dollars and cents?
Is seven year old boy, profit
or a loss to his father, up to the
time OF his twenty-hrst birthday?
Not counting affection, COM
panionship, love or grief caused
by his death, just exactly what
do YOU think seven year old
boy, is worth as a financial in
vestmcnt?
Jacob +. Price, who IS suing
the city of Plymouth, for dam
ages occasioned by the acciden-
tai death 70 his seven-year old
son, Russell, which occurred on
Sunday, September %, 1908,
when the laid upset a weighing
machine upon himself, in front
OF the Shaded Drug Store, ON
the corner of Michigan and Gar
TO streets, resulting in his imme-
diate death, says that the death
of his son was loss of $1,000 to
him, and that is the amount OF
damages he seeks to collect from
the city in the case which is be
ing tried in the Circuit court,
commencing Wednesday after
noon.
Is your seven year old son,
worth $4,000 to you, as a financial
investment?
If not just what is he worth, or
is ne losing investment
All of these questions must be
solved by the twelve jurymen,
who are the judges in the trial
OF Jacob F.. Price, versus the City
OF Plymouth for damages.
In the concluding paragraph OF
his complaint, Price says-"That
this plaintiff was the natural
father OF said child, and as such,
would have been entitled to its
earnings to the time of its ma or-
ity had it lived, subject to the
proper care, maintenance and
support of said child. That by
reason OF the premises this plain
tiff has been damaged in the sum
OF $4,000
Law is Cold.
The law is cold in providing
for the amount of damages which
may be collected in the death on
a child. The law supposes' that
the child would have lived until
its twenty4hrSt year, and pro
vldes that the amount of dam
ages which may be collected by
parent, shall be what the net
earnings OF the child would have
amounted to, from the time OF
its death until it reached its ma
Jorrty. Into this computation, the
amount of the child's boarl, cost
OF clothing, and all money ex-
penled by the parent upon the
child. from the time of its death
until it would have become p
years OF age, must be figured to
the debit of the child. Its earn
ings and the amount which the
parent would be reimbursed by
money which the child wouhd
subsequently earn, goes to the

Plenty of winter Work.

"There is no rest for the wicked"
says the book, neither is there rest for
the farmer or any other man who loves
his work and is on the job all the time.
There are so many things which the
average farmer may do in the winter
which are both profitable and pleasant
that any farmer, whether owner or ten
ant, may find occupation every day he
may wish through the winter. Feed
ing cattle and hogs Is very pleasant
and nearly always profitable, not only
directly, but Indirectly. Every load Of
manure hauled out brings large re-
turns. The winter gives to man an ex-
cellent chance also to be In the shop
and repair farm machinery, build coops
and houses for the chicks. See that
the pig houses are in good shape for
the coming filters and fix up the box
stalls for the early cows or mare, and
hundred other things may be done.
Another very important thing Is to
have plenty of good posts made to use
on the farm the coming year. How
often do we see farmers stop right in
the busy season to make posts and re-
pair fences, let alone building new.
There is no earthly excuse except lazi-
ness for man hugging tie hot stove
all winter.

Crop Rotation.

In order that we may maintain the
supply of humus and thus preserve the
fertility Of the soil, it is essential that
on all tillable lands that we adopt a
rotation of crops A much larger pro-
portion OF our land should be In perma-
nent pasture. 1t is easy for farmer
to adopt a rotation on the portion Of
his land that is under tillage, but the
adoption of a rotation necessarily in
wolves sclne branch OF animal feeding
In order to utilize the cloyers and
grasses which form so essential a part
Of the rotation. Growing and feeding
live stock will avail but little unless
the manure Is carefully saved, both liq-
uids and solids, and applied regularly
Where a general line of live stock
farming is being followed there need
be but little fear of a decline In the
productive capacity Of the farm. There
are certain soils that may be deficient
In potash or phosphoric acid and on
such soils 1t viii pay large returns to
use mineral fertilizers in connection
with the manure that is made on the
farm. Do not use commercial fertiliz-
ers unless you have reason to believe
that your soil is deficient In the ele-
ments that you are buying. 1t is a
waste of money to supply elements that
are not needed by the soll.-Agricultur-
al Epitomist.
