RAISING CHILDREN BY RULE.
Can Make Them Anything Wished,
Declares Los Angeles Doctor.


Declares Los Angeles Doctor.
DR.. L. E. Landone, president of
Los Angeles institute and chairman of
the new international educational COM
mittee, was in Chicago several days
ago to select twelve children to be
brought up under a new method by
which, he says, it is possible to
make child anything a guardian
wishes-good, bad or Indifferent,
sweet tempered or quarrelsome- If it
only is placed in the proper environ
ments and surrounded with the neces-
sary equipment to develop the desired
qualities.
DR.. LandOne states that his own
method is unlimited and that the age
of the child and it's own environment
and training offer no interference.
81 have taken charge of a number of
unruly children and placed them in an
atmosphere of refinement, surrounded
by cultured children, and kept them in
constant contact with these conditions
In some cases the evolution took a
long time, but in the end it was in
variably successful
''Some of my greatest successes have
been in developing the quality of cour-
age in children by constantly bringing
them into contact with little things
that tend to bring out this trait. l can
also take child and develop an in
ventive, musical or an artistic quail
ty."
DR.. Landone's methods make abso-
lutely no provision for lecturing, scOld-
ing and furnishing, as in his opinion
these have been tried ''since the be-
ginning of the world with little or no
success.
Zone of the most needed qualities in
this day and age is the quality of eX-
ecutiveness," says DR.. Landone, land
it is my ambition to make this the pre-
dominating trait to be developed in
my coming experiments"

To Test New Law.

Miss Cordelia Gardner, of
Brandenburg, Meade county, will
make the first test of the new
State Law giving the County
Board the right to employ and
dismiss teachers. She is alleged
to have declined to adopt certain
changes in the government of
her school as directed by County
Superintendent w. B. Arnold,
the case being appealed to State
Superintendent Crabbe after Miss
Gardner had secured a retaining
order from the county Judge of
Meade county preventing her
from being ousted by the Coun-
ty Board. Attorney General
Breathitt has informed Superin-
tendent Crabbe that the county
attorney of Meade county must
represent the State in the case,
which will be taken through all
of the courts of the Court of APP
peals..

During the past season the
Department Of Agriculture has
made an important discovery
that the self-boild lime sulphur
wash is not injurious to peach
foliage when properly made and
will not produce ruseting and
other injurious effects on apples.
furthermore, it has beer found
to be as effective as a fungicide
as the standard Bordeaux mix
ture. Extensive experiments
have been carr led on during the
year by the Department on near
ly all of the common fruit dis
eases which are preventable by
spraying and it has been demon
strated that the above mixture is
a very useful one. Farmers

NEW VARIETY OF POOL GAME.
ST. Louis Man lnvents One Called
Stripes and Spots.

Harry T. Mathews of st. Louis has
originated new game of pool, and it
bids fair to become popular. Here's
the idea:
When the balls are ''racked' the
spot balls are placed in the rear and
inside the triangle and the seven
stripes on the outside. The 1 ball
is placed in the middle.
A chooses the stripes" and 3 the
"spots." A plays only to poc4-e- the
stripes" 3 goes after only the
"spots" The 1 ball is the odd one.
After A or B has counted his seven he
goes after the 1 ball. The one pocket
ing it wins the game.
If a player pockets the ball before
he has run out his seven he forfeits
the game. The game is a cross be-
tween continuous pool and French
pool. 1t can be played with one, two
or more players on a side.

Anticipate winter heaving of

Clover is one of the best Or

In Mill at Newington Center, Conn.

DR.. James House Butte Of Houston.
Tex. has been conducting an expert
ment on a large scale in making paper
pulp from sugar cane at the old mill of
paper company in Newington Cen
ter, near Hartford, Conn.

fiber is fine and very tough. In its
first stage the pulp is of dirty yellow
color, but beaches out to a pure
white. The foreman at the mill says
the pulp can be beaten into very
fine state and be used for high grade
paper The process of treatment is
not divulged, but DR.. Butte is much
encouraged by his experiment.

Best Stomach
Remedy Free

1t is an old saying that if the stom-
ach is sound the whole body is safe,
because so much depends upon the
proper working of the stomach. Many
persons find themselves with dis
order of the stomach which pro-
duces dyspepsia or peculiar state Of
blliOusneSS.
If you suffer from both stomach trouble

ditions come appendicitis, rheumatism,
skin diseases and similar disorders, be-
cause the waste matter that should have
been. dispelled from the system through
the bowels has found its way into the
blood and yitiated it, What is needed at
this point is not simply violent cathartic
tablet or salt, which usually does more
harm than good, but a gentle laxative
tonic like DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin,
which people have been using for these
ailments for nearly quarter of a CEN
tury. 1t cured j. G. Lanham, OF War;
rensburg, Mo-, of stomach trouble of long
standing, also William Vol, of 903 Ellis
son St., Louisville, KY, who had the
trouble for fifteen years.
However, if you have stomach trouble
you want to know from personal expert
ence what DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin
to the doctor and a free trial bottle win
be sent you. You are urged to send for
the free bottle, as the results from it win

over two million people did last year-go
to your druggist and buy a regular bottle
at so cents or 81, according to the size
you prefer. We could mention hundreds
and hundreds of families who are never
without it.. You can never tell when some
member Of the family will need a laxa-
tive and then no time should be lost
taking DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.

Orchard and Garden Notes.

Asparagus and pieplant hardly
ever find ground too rich.
In fertilizing the orchard re-
member that the feeding roots
extend far out from the trees.
Don't let the apples put in a
pit come in contact with the
ground. 1t will make them al
most UNBEATABLE.
An apple will stand several
more degrees of cold than will
the potato, and should be kept in
dark, cool place.
If it be possible, plan to have
the garden in long rows next
summer so that it can be partly
tended by the horse cultivator.
Like animals, each fruit tree
has it's own characteristics, and
must be handled accordingly.
They can not all be treated alike.
Use nothing but well-rotted
manure on the garden and the
richer the better. See that the
chunks are all broken up and
evenly spread.
There is no danger of over
stocking the market with small
fruits and there is little COMPETE
ton for the man who grows the
best.
/ In applying fertilizers to the
orchard, spread them evenly
over all the ground. Roots of
mature trees extend over all the
area.
Give fruit trees plenty of light,
air, room and root feeding area.
There is more danger of setting
trees too close together than too
for apart.
Why go to the expense Of set
ting out an orchard and the neg
lect it? That looks like land,
time and money wasted. An or
chard worth setting out is worth
caring for right.
Remember not to put beets,
turnips and such vegetables
away in the cellar without first
packing in moist dirt. Sand is
the cleanest and easiest to ham
die. If not packed, they wilt.
If you haven't yet plowed the
garden try and find some day
this winter in which to do the
job. 1t will mean vegetables at
least ten days earlier next spring
should it happen to prove wet.
AS soon as freezing weather
sets in, cover the strawberry
patch with straw to prevent al
ternate freezing and thawing of
the soil and a consequent lifting
of the plants. Manure with the
straw is good.
Bear in mind that peach-stones,
nuts, cherry and plum pits, ETC.,
from which it is hoped to obtain
tree seedlings, should be mixed
with.soil or sand and exposed to
