Look to Your Shoes
Say Varsity Experts

How to care for the feet is the
subject of the second health bulletin
issued this year to the students at
the University of Wisconsin, by the
faculty committee on hygiene.
When a pointed toe is combined
with a high heel in shoe, that shoe
should be prohibited by law, writes
the committee in the bulletin. A
pointed toe, it declares, crowds the
toes togeter into an unnatural posi-
ton, while the high heel throws the
entire weight of the body upon the
front of the foot and toes, which
were never intended to bear such a
weight. The results of wearing
shoes with narrow toes and high
heels are flat foot, bunions, corns
and interference with the circula-
ton. Patent leather and enamelled
leather shoes should never be worn,
the committee on hygiene also
states, because such shoes being
practically impervious to moisture
the perspiration cannot evaporate,
with the result that the foot becomes
soft and tender.
In selecting shoe the following
points as to its shape must be con-
sidered: The shoe must be fully as
wide as the sole of the foot. The
heels should be low and broad. The
shoe must be so flexible that the
foot may be easily bent while rails
ing the foot on the toes in walking
The inner side of the shoe should
be in straight line; any shoe that
slopes from the heel outward to the
toe is bad. The toe of the shoe
should be broad enough to permit
all of the toes to lie side by side
without crowding. No shoe should
be so tight around the ankle as to
hinder circulation.

The Farmer as an Educator

We have read much about carry
ing education to to the farmer-giv-
ing his children better schools, and
himself a larger share in the current
educational uplift. But to-day the
school organizations in not few of
the states are, curiously enough,
looking to the farms-not for pupils
with whom to fill the schoolhouses ,
but for men competent to assume
the teachers platform as instruc-
tors in Farming.
The demand for the farmer as an
educator is one of the interesting
features in the trend of modern ed
ucation toward a combination of the
practical and industrial with the
scientific and theoretical. The Ag-
ricultural College is nowhere near
fast enough supplying graduates in
numbers sufficiect to fill the current
demand for instructors. Just as
West Point has failed to supply
enough graduates to officer the
regular army, thus compelling the
government to look among the CIV
ilians for lieutenants, SO have the
Agricultural Colleges failed to meet
the pressing call of the rapidly or
ganizing armies of agricultural stu
dents in the high and consolidated
schools. In Minnesota, the grant
of state aid for schools of either
class depends on the employment
as instructors of men skilled in
scientific agriculture. This is the
day of opportunity for the educated
farmer.
This new development in educa-
tional ideas is to have a large share
in the process now going on, of ele-
waiting farming to the rank of pro-
fession, and of making the farm at
tractive to the ambitious boy. The
facts which he there masters-the
skill he acquires in field and garden
may count largely, some day,
when supplemented by sufficient
schooling, in securing for him a
coveted position, where to the
ownership and revenues of farm
he can add the social power and
leadership which attaches to the
holding of high position as an in
structor. His combined opportuni-
ties will far exceed those of the
average lawyer, doctor or trader.

The long-continued wet weather
of last fall proved quite disastrous
to farming interests. Much grain
in stack was badly damaged; corn
was cut and shocked while the
stalks were green in order to save
the fodder for stock. Much of this
became mou1dy, both fodder and
corn. Potatoes in many places
could not be dug on account of the
ground being too wet. These crops
were all large yields and when pro-
perly cared for were of the best
quality, and those who were for
tunate to do so realized good prices.
Flowing was set back considerably,
especially where there was much
clay ground and much of the fall
blowing was left undone.

tity, (2) it must open up a neat, shall
low trench, CD it must cover the seed
at the proper depth.
To secure the first result, that is,
seed sown in the proper quantity, drill
manufacturers use various devices, of
either the force feed" type where the
grain is forced out of the drill by a
constant, positive motion, or of the
gravity feed" type in which the grain
simply works its way through holes in
the bottom of the box. This latter
style of feed is more common now in
the grass seed boxes en- drills, al
though the force feeds are used here
as we'll as on the grains, but grass
seed feeds by gravity much more even
ly than wheat or oats.
The quantity which the drill will
sow per acre is quite accurately deter
mined in the factory and finger point
and dial are placed somewhere on the
drill, making it easy to adjust for diff
ferent rates Of seeding. But these SET
tings are not always accurate, cspe
cially after the drill has been in use
for number of years, hence it is very
necessary to test its accuracy for both
grain and grass seed. This may be
done in the field by putting enough

the bare ground and fell asleep, to be
awakened by the boom of the rebels
cannon in the early morning of the
third days battle.
Early in the afternoon, away of to
our right, we could hear the booming
of the cannon and see the long line
of Pickett's forces emerging from the
wooded slope of Seminary Ridge, to
start on their ever memorable but
fatal charge upon the center of the
Union line.
We watched their lines advancing
under the storm Of shot and shell
from the Union cannon. Great gaps
opened up their lines, which were
promptly filled up, and by the time
the Emmitsburg pike was reached we
lost sight of them in the great vol
ume Of smoke which enveloped them.
The musketry was terrific. Then
came orders for our brigade to move
to the right. But the conflict was
over before we could reach the scene.
We were then hurried back to the

PRESERVES AHo PICKLES.

One of the finest of preserves are
those made from the yellow pear to-
mato. Wipe the tomatoes, cover with
boiling water and let stand until the
skins are easily removed. Measure
pound for pound of sugar and fruit;
cover and let stand over night. In the
morning pour on the sirup and boil
until quite thick: skim, then add the
tomatoes. two ounces of preserved
ginger and two lemons which have
been sliced with the seeds removed.
Cook until the tomatoes have a trans.
parent appearance.
Damson PreserVes.-Wipe the plums
with a cloth wrung out of cold water,
and prick each one five or six times
with a darning needle; then weigh.
Make a sirup by boiling three-fourths
their weight in sugar with water, al
lowing cup to each pound OF sugar
Cook until soft. A good plan is to use
two kettles that the work may be
more quickly done, and the sirup need
not cook too long. Put into stone or
glass jars.
Sweet Picked Peaches.-Boil to-
gether a pint of vinegar. two pounds
of brown sugar and an ounce Of stick
cinnamon for twenty minutes. Dip
half peck Of peaches into boiling
water. then rub off the fuzz with a
towel. Stick four cloves in each
peach and drop them into the hot
sirup, using few at a time. When
soft and well scalded. put into the Jar
and pour over the boiling hot sirup.
Cover and put in cool place. This
sirup is great improvement to mince
pies If little is added to each pie,
or to mincemeat when making it.
Pears, apples and other fruits are
picked. using the above proportions.
Ounce Honey.-Pare and core
ounces, chop fine; allow an equal
measure of sugar to the fruit; add
half cup of water to a pound OF the
sugar. and cook until thick and honey
like. Put into glasses and cover, as
for jelly.

MAKING WORK EFFECTIVE.

In this day of specialists and spe-
cializing we hear so much of making
everything count There is no work,
profession or business where this is
more important than In home-making.
How necessary it is that the house
keeper should be trained to make
every move count in order to save
strength and temper. ITO make her
head save her heels" as our grand
mothers would say.
The trained woman, one who loves
her work. does her task as perfectly
as she knows how to do. There is no
slipshod work; things sometimes must
be left undone because OF circum-
stances. but the machinery OF her
home moves noiselessly because it is
oiled with brains. A great. painter
was once asked with what do you
mix your colors?" He replied: with
brains"
The woman with trained mind be-
gins with her appearance, wearing
garments suitable to her station and
work, knowing that she must be neat
hrst and always. Because a dress Is
made for work dress does not mean
that it need be unattractive, for the
simple little one-piece gowns with
cuffs and turnover collar of contrast
ing material are most becoming. II
one has work to do that will soil a
gown. have the big-sleeved apron to
slip on, and when called away it may
be quickly slipped off, and one need
never be ashamed of ones appear
ance. -..
The trained woman wastes no time.
She rises early. while it is yet night
(for many. and giveth the meat 10
her household and a portion to her
maidens."
1t is wonderful what may be accom-.
plished by systematic regular applica-
tion. Have book or paper at hand
when resting; read the article or Joke
or lecture that will refresh the mind
and improve it.
The workbasket with the piece of
work always ready to pick up sees
much work done in odd moments.
Last, but most important, she fills
her mind and heart so full of the
many beautiful and wonderful things
about her that she has no time to
think the disagreeable, gossipy things
which mar so many otherwise beauti-
full lives.
