HELPFUL HINTS FOR
HAPPY HOUSEHOLDERS
What to Do When Spring Really
Arrives

The loose board on the back fence
should be attended to now. 1t probably
has Topped in the wind for the last
two years. This spring dig a hole a
foot deep at its base, place some rich
earth in the hole and plant a quick
growing vine, says the Chicago Post.
This will cover the loose board by the
end of summer.
The breaking up of winter gives you
the much needed opportunity to repair
the broken window in the basement.
You were wise in allowing it to remain
without glass all winter. Most of US
coop ourselves up without sufficient
ventilation during cold weather.
Putting in glass is simple. First
measure the space it is to occupy. You
will then order il half an inch too wide
or long. Every man should be handy
with tools, so you should now buy a
glass cutter. With this you will trim
the pane to the proper dimensions. it
will break and you will cut the palm of
your hand.
This will afford you the opportunity
to blame it on your wife's spring bon
net, for if she hadn't been so extraVa-
CANT you could have afforded to hire
gIazier to put in the glass.
When the glazier comes you can
stand around and tell him how to do
the work.
Also, you should now set out the lit
tie tree in the back yard. This IS
fine exercise, for you will slip into the
hole and get dirt all over your clothes,
and you will trip on the tree and fall
and lose everything out of your pock-
cts; also you will scratch your hands
and face on the tree.
Next morning your wife will ask you
set it at an angle of 60 degrees. quote
Clifford Pinchot in this emergency.

FARMERS LEAVE HOME
AND FLOCK TO CITY
Conservation Commission Gath
ers Many Startling Facts

American agriculture shows
strange contrast With the price of
farm products higher than ever before,
farm land has deprecated in value and
the number of abandoned farms stead
iIv increases, says the Cleveland Plain
Dealer.
Figures gathered by the conservation
commission are surprising. 1t is shown
that there are 5000 square miles of
abandoned farms, chiefly in New Eng
land, New York and the southeast and
the middle central states. That Is,
there are in the United States at pres
ent 10, ,000, 900 acres of abandoned farm
land-an area as large as the culti-
waited part of the Canadian northwest,
Is times the size of Rhode Island, four
times the size of Connecticut, twice the
size of Massachusetts, or half as large
as Ohio.
OF the many reasons advanced to ex-
plain this desertion of farms, two or
three are especially worth noticing.
Most important of all, perhaps, is the
wasteful system of cultivation that has
so long prevailed in the United States,
A fertile soil has in countless cases
been exhausted by taking everything
from it and returning nothing to 1T.
Add to this the fact that there Is a
marked trend of population from coun-
try to city, that farm labor has be-
come so expensive as to leave little
profit from the work of laborer and
1t is little wonder that so many owners
of farms do not care to cultivate them.

Amateur Body Changes
Basket Ball Rules

At a recent meeting of the board of
managers of the Pacific athletic asso-
citation it was decided to make radi-
cal change in the rules for the conduct
of basket ball championships in the
future.
1t has been customary in the past
for the average wei ght of teams to be
taken in the different classes. but next
year every player must weigh under
the weight limit assigned This will
mean that every one playing on a 110
pound team must weigh 10 pounds.
and so on for the other weight classes.
This announcement has been made at
this time in order that teams organiz-
ing for next year may take this into
consideration in forming their line
