EATING TOO MUCH.
Overnutrition 10 Just a. Harmful ~
Mainutrition.

Ovsrnutrition 10 Just 40 Harmful ~
Malnutrition.
1t Is an acknowledged fact that al
most every soul Of us eats too much.
The digestive organs are constantly
overturned and finally weakened.
When wisely followed, the practice Of
fasting can be most beneficial. An ex-
pert on the food question has said that
one should rise from the table with
the feeling Of hunger, which Is an ex-
perience known to very few of us.
On the contrary, the majority Of peo-
pie leave the board with a sense Of
burden which only an hours siesta
can alleviate. This Is not so much
owing to the fact that the food Is un-
commonly rich, for the rule Of the
simple life obtains now in the fash
ionable cuisine but 1t is the quantity
taken. There Is large community at
the present moment which fasts from
breakfast time till dinner at night. 1t
Is question If 1t is wise to leave the
stomach entirely without food during
all those hours, but there is no ques-
ton that the lighter the lunch taken
the better will be the health Of the
individual. BY light lunch" in this
instance is meant what most people
would not call lunch at all-that is
to say, n few crackers with cheese
"a much maligned article Of diet, a
few nuts and bit of fruit or a cup
of cocoa with dry toast. Such a
feast" prevents the craving for food
and In no way taxes the digestive Or
gans. Overnutrition is just as harm
full as malnutrition and Is far more
frequently the cause Of maladies.
With judicious fasting the system re-
covers its lost tone, and mental work
ers would find that the brain worked
with surprising lightness, for the brain
Is one Of the chief sufferers from over
eating.--New York American.

The WORD "NlN1EH,"
Said to Have Originally Indicated
/ Wetness, Not Coldness.

WeSneSS, NOT CoI0ne8S.
There is prevailing impression that
there Is something In the word win
ter" that signifies cold. and the sea-
son Is usually associated with the idea
of low temperature, but where the
word originated there was little Of
winter as we understand 1t, while
there was a great deal Of moisture at
the time the earth was nearest to the
sun, so that 1t IS not the temperature
but the atmospheric condition that has
given us the wNrd.
The word winter" as we use 1t, Is
found with but slight notifications in
all the branches Of the Aryan Ian
guages, for the idea Of wetness assoc
ciated with the season was given to it
before the Aryan family was divided.
II we go to the root Of the word we
find "wad," with the Specification Of to
well. to wash out, to moisten or make
wet. Our Aryan ancestors used that
root to apply to all conditions Of
moisture, and many words besides
winter have grown out of 1t, wet and
water being among them.
This root "wad" Is In the SansErir as
"udan," water. Anglo-Saxon has "wae-
ter" and in Latin we have "unda,"
wave. from which we get our 'inun-
date"
Our Danish and Swedish cousins
changed the wv" into "v" and have
winter" In Icelandic it Is "vetir,"
and the old high German has win
tar" and 1t is winter in German
These four words are all from the
Teutonic base "wata," which means
wet. So 1t has been moisture that has
been indicated from the birth Of the
root on which all Of the different words
in n dozen languages have grown

SEED SELECTION.
Much Depends on the Care Given This
important Matter.

Much Depends on the Care Given This
important Matter.
The time for selecting seed corn Is
before the harvest. If one wishes to
have his own corn ripen earlier he
should 60 through the field and mark
those that are the first to ripen. II he
wants a more prolific corn let him
mark those stalks which have two or
more perfect ears and those that pro-
duce the longest ears well filed to the
end. Save these at husking time and
later on go over them again to choose
the most perfect ears. those that have
large kernels and small cobs, as such
cure most quickly without molding and
produce the most grain to n bushel Of
ears. Put the best of these where they
will dry perfectly and be safe from
dampness and from rats and mice. If
one cannot get enough such ears to
plant oil he desires to grow let him
plant the best Of these In field apart
from the rest and the next year select
seed In the same way from that field.
II given good cultivation these seed
plots will show such improvement over
make larger proportion Of stalks that
yield two ears or more, and from the
ears that IRE large and ripen early he
will largely increase his percentage OF
perfect seed ears. This is as true Of
seed corn as of field corn.
Seed potatoes should be selected at
the time of digging, taking them from
those hills most productive Of mer-
charitable potatoes and selecting those
that are perfect in shape and true to
the type Of the variety. They need not
be the largest In the hill. Most expe
rienced growers prefer medium sized
tubers for seed rather than the very
large. but they should be we'll ripened.
All roots for seed stock should be kept
in a dry and cool place, better II near
ly down to the freezing point, until
nearly time for planting out.
Such crops as beans and peas are
often saved for seed by planting rows
taken for family use or market. and
this Is much better than saving such
as may be left after the main crop has
been picked, which soon causes them
to run out, but If from these special
paintings only those that ripened ear
Hest were taken earlier maturity might
be expected, while II the longer and
better filed pods were taken a larger
crop for market would be the result.
The seeds Of squashes. melons and
pumpkins are usually saved from the
best used in the family, but many
times the best are sent to market and
smaller or inferior ones saved to be
improvement Is made in the future
crops. The cucumbers to select seed
from should be the first perfect ones
to set on the vine or as near the hill
as may be.
Such roots as produce seed only in
the second year, as beets. turnips. cab
bages, onions, celery, lettuce, etc,
should be selected as perfect speci-
mems as can be found and kept as d.
rected above. Tomatoes also should
be selected from the very best and
earliest that ripen on the most prolific
vines. The same general rules will
apply to almost all crops, saving the
best for seed, and If not enough Of it
is obtained for planting or sowing put
that separately where 1t can furnish
more seed another year.

Apples In Boxes.

This subject would be threadbare
with all the discussion 1t has had Of
late were it not for the urgency Of the
facts. The apple barrel is by no means
a satisfactory package, especially to
the shipper Of good apples. and in spite
Of obstacles the apple box is making
progress. A larger proportion Of last
years apple crop was sold in boxes
than ever before. These facts came
most painfully to the attention Of east
ern apple growers when all through
the winter months Oregon apples in
boxes sold at good prices In all east
ern cities, while New York and New
England fruit was a drug In the mar
ket. It was q situation which could
leave no doubt in the eastern apple
growers mind that something has to
be done. Naturally the eastern grower,
who sees his market thus cut out from
under him. thinks first Of boxing his
own apples. He considers also the
fancy packing, trademarking and 9th
err selling devices at which the west
ern men are SO clever. All these
schemes he must adopt, initiate or
Improve. But there Is one thing more
and very important one. which must
be taken into the account. The east
ern grower must grow better fruit
Eastern apples are conceded to be Of
better quality than Pacific coast stock,
but the eastern grower has relied quite
too much on this single fact. The
western apples are allowed to have
the best color and finish, but again
the eastern grower has taken this esti-
mate too much for granted. The high
quality Of New York and New Eng
land apples must be preserved. aug
mented and then advertised. The fruit
must be carefully hand thinned on the
trees IN order to get Uniform grade
for box packing. The color and ap-
pearance must be improved by better
care. Western methods Of cooperative
packing. shipping and selling must be
adopted. These are large reforms
here pointed out, and the eastern farm.
Or is q hard subject for reform, but
these improvements have all got to BE-
made. Otherwise the Oregon apple
grower will appropriate the entire east.
crn market, and the eastern apple grow.
