The buying of foodstuffs by weight

The buying of foodstuffs by weight
Is being agitated as plan to affect
the cost-of-living problem in favor of
the housewife and enable her to come
nearer getting the worth of her money.
If 1t will do either, or both, it should
be adopted without delay. providing
1t entails no incidental hardship that
would offset its benefits. But would
such a plan produce these results !?
Theoretically, one is inclined to an
Bwer yes, for it does seem that one
would be paying for what he got by
buying by weight and not measure, or
article, says the Omaha Bee. Yet in
places where the plan has been in
vogue has 1t accomplished this? Cali
fornia has always bought by weight
even potatoes, fruit-nearly every
thing in the edible line-and yet the
people OF California have been caught
by the high-cost-of-living wave along
with the rest of us. In Cuba, it Is
said, the plan works with good results,
1t being applied even more thoroughly
there than in California. Eggs are
bought by the pound in Cuba and the
American advocates of the plan pro-
pose that we buy eggs the same way.

AUTOMOBILE ExTRAvAGANcE.

Both the automobile and its owner
are coming in for very serious preach
ments these days. The machine itself
is held up as the direct cause of much
unhappiness and suffering. and vast
deal OF ethical denunciation Is hurled
at 1t from many sides. 1t would seem
that there are only three classes OF
people who are at all justified in rail.
Ing against the machine itself. says
the Washington Post. They are the
man who gets run into, or nearly run
into, by one: the farmer whose horse
is afraid Of "the pesky thing" and
most of all, the man who cannot get
one. Those who are outside of one OF
these classes really mistake the thing
they condemn. What they mean to
get at Is the extravagant, irrespons1
BILE, spendthrift habits of limited
number Of automobile owner, OF which
the machine is only the outward and
visible sign. They forget that If it is
not an automobile, itowill surely be
something else. OF .tkGNnAY who can
well afford to own and maintain an

to be said; 1t is wholly his own pri

house to buy one, that Is entirely with

Advice by an energetic, efficient
business man to tired man now 60
ing back to work after"a rest spell:
Take things :easier> and get. more
fresh air. No worry. Do the most
important thing first and then the
next. Generally, the things you don't
do aren't worth doing. What you
think you ought to do you want to
do up to the handle and do it quick
and then forget it. Don't putter. The
way to get along, in my judgment, Ia
to work up to the limit for a certain
limited number of hours and then stop.
A man can get further in the long run
walking three and half miles an
hour for eight hours out of each "a
than he can going two miles an hour
for Is hours In "a. The first way he
can keep going and improve; the last
way he will deteriorate and finally
have to quit" ~"-,

lot us consider few fundamentals of crop

let us consider few fundamentals of crop
growing.
First, there are six positive, absolutely es-
sential factors. They are: 0) the SEED,
(2) the plant home, (3) the food of which the
plant is made, (4) moisture 20 heat, co light.
Now, except in the case of the seed and plant
food these factors are largely beyond the farm
ers control. Dame Nature can, however, be
trusted to attend to them satisfactorily How,
then, has the farmer made use of his ability to
control the two factors? BY exercising judg-
ment and care in the selection of seed and by
ignoring the matter of plant food entirely The
result? When the land was worn out and had
no plant food to give the good seed the agr1cul-
turist arose irately in farmers institute and
told what he thought of the seed seller. The
trouble all the time not with the seed but
with the soil, which had had the elements OF
plant food removed In previous crops, and as
a consequence could not respond to the call OF
the seed.
What are these elements? There are ten
in the list, but eight are provided abundantly
-Three-oxygen, hydrogen and carbon-come
directly from the air and water. Most nor
NAL soils contain enough potassium magne-
stun, iron calcium and sulphur, although some
times the first must be supplied The problem
of plant food, therefore, narrows itself, In most
cases, to maintaining and increasing the phos-
phorus and nitrogen.
Now nitrogen Is as easy to catch as the
measles If one knows how. The air contains
it In inconceivable amounts. DR.. Hopkins has
estimated that the air above an acre of ground
contains about s10OO0oO0 worth, If sold over
the counter at ordinary commercial rates. In
order to induce this nitrogen to enter the
earth, where it may reappear as food for man,
all that is necessary is to plant clover alfalfa,
peas or any legume. BY means of the bacteria
upon the roots these legumes draw the nitro
gen into the SOIL How necessary the element
