The movement of so many thou
sands Of young people from the farm
to the city is largely caused by bad
roads which isolate their homes and
render the. world about them mac.
cessible. The addition to the urban
population lessons the producing force
of the farm and at the same time Gre
ates a greater demand for farm prod
ucts. This means higher cost Of liy.

The minus quality Of our soils lies
not SO much on the chemical side of
the soil as upon the wretchedly poor
physical condition induced through the
lack of any attempt to return to tHe
soil that vital attribute which makes
for uctiveness-humus; which
together with rational tillage and use
of manures, constitutes the best key
for unlocking the storage Of latent
plant food contained in the soil.

"vain" Fritz as Workman.

"Eitel," which is an old family name
among the Hohenzollerns, means
VAIN consequently it attracted an
unusual amount of attention when
Prince Eitel Fritz adopted unusual
methods lately to decrease his weight
1t did not seem to anybody else that
the prince was taking on enough flesh
to prove unbecoming, but it did not ac-
cord with his own idea of a proper
military figure, and he went to his
summer residence near Charlotten-
burg and lived the life of an ordinary
out of door laborer. He stayed several
weeks and worked all day at garden
ing, tree telling, and carpentering,
wearing a workman's clothes. He also
helped in the construction Of a new
riding school. The princess became so
interested in the cure that one day
when she stopped to watch some ma
sons in the construction of a clock
work fauntain in connection with the
new building she became so interested
that she set to work with hammer and
trowel and worked for nearly an hour

MAKES HANDY CANDLE BOARD
Continuance Is an Improvement Over
Old Way Of Placing Candles
In the Cake.

The mother who has many birth
day parties to give should by all
means invest in a candle board. 1t
is much more convenient and more
pleasant way to trim cake than to
stick candle holders into it, with the
danger of grease mingling with the
icing.
These boards can be bought, but II
you have cake pans of certain size
II is wiser to have them made. They
should be circular and big enough for
the cake to slip down easily between
the rows of candles on the outside.
The outer rim of the board Is filled
with small holes, into which can be
screwed as many tiny candle holders
as are needed. often these boards
are made of burnt wood with an ap-
propriate motto burnt into 1t as Many
happy returns of the day" Another
year, another leaf, is turned within
that volume brief"
II one does not wish to go to the
expense of decorated board, any car
penter will make you a large circle
of white pine or any other wood,
which can be finished with a white
shellac, or can be given a coat or two
of white paint, covered with white
enamel so that II can be easily
scrubbed.
For Greater Warmth.
Capes are cold things when worn In
winter, but being fashionable, they
are popular in spite of colds and
coughs. Here is hint for making
them more comfortable:
Make a pair of loose sleeves of silk
the color of lining or outside of cape.
as preferred. The latter is more serv-
iceable. Wad them, finish on top and
bottom and attach to the cape with
ribbon or elastic.
To adjust sleeves put them on. throw
cape over them and tack near shout
der line Take care that they do not
pull the cape out of shape.

The Appetite of Eskimos.

Harry Whitney, who spent a year
shooting within the Attic Circle, gives
an idea in an article in Outing for De-
cember of what an Eskimo can do at
table when he tries. He says:
Il shall never forget the feast that
those Eskimos had when we next
halted. made a careful note of what
the six men consumed within three
hours-seven hares, one seal, about
a bucketful of dried walrus meat pre-
pared by DIR. Cook for dog food while
at Annootok and two large cups of
tea and four biscuits a man. A good
part of the seal and all the hare meat
they ate raw, like hungry dogs"
