Making The Back Yard Feed
A Family.

The plan of DR.. A. S. KNAPP, of the
National Department of Agriculture,
to extend corn-growing contests
and the corn club movement to the
city schools is commemorate.
While all the fascinating posi-
bilities of agriculture cannot be test
ed in urban communities, a great
many of the most interesting can
be made available by the average
city dweller.
Experts estimate that in a back
yard space of 30x40 feet, or on 1900
square feet of ordinary soil, as may
be found in the rear of nearly every
city cottage, vegetables sufficient to
supply a good sized family may be
grown at little expense and no great
trouble.
And in the front yards of lawns
of the same homes, flower gardens
may be developed easily, there be-
ing innumerable varieties ofhorti-
culture products that will respond
to minimum of care. Nothing makes
a home more home-like and attrac-
tive than plenty of fresh flowers
and growing plants; and there is no
work more eXhilarahng than that
of planting and cultivating them.
A great many city dwellers suffer
for lack of open air exercise, their
work being in closed Offices or shops.
To tend a garden Of vegetables or
flowers is means Of relaxation
and recreation that will add to any
ones working efficiency and enhance
their good health.
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1911-04-01
A half hours association with a

A half hours association with a
spade or hoe in the early morning
excites an appetite making the
meanest breakfast a delight, and
and thirty minutes spent in the
same way in the late afternoon will
encourage a dreamless slumber
which alone spells complet rest.
In suburban communities where
the lots are large, city gardens can
be made to produce substantial
profit. A part of it may be
devoted to vegetables and the
remainder to chickens. Among
the best specimens of the latter are
now being raised in small runs in
city yards.
Several years ago a Chinese came
to a Southern city intending to open
a laundry. He found the field COW
cred, and looked for other means
of earning livihood. He leased
two vacant lots for good period of
time and turned them into small
truck garden. In a few years he
returned to China with funds
sufficient to sustain him in ease the
the remainder of his life. What he
did others can do.
DR.. Knapp estimates that
100000 American families which
can reduce the cost of living $120
per anuum by merely utilizing the
back yards of their home. And the
fun, recreation and information
they could get would treble that fig
ure in value.
In several Southern cities, the
school authorities are encouraging
the development of gardens by the
children, having experts to direct
them and contests to excite interest
and vigOr.
The idea is well worth considera-
ton in large municipalities.

CONSTRUCTION OF GERMAN MAR
RAGE Law. A st. Paul ,-1inn.) doc
tor and a nurse left secretly for New
York and sailed to Germany, where
they were married by a man who,
while believed to be a minister of the
gospel, proved to be a person not au-
thorized by the law of Germany to
celebrate a marriage. Thereafter and
UP to the time OF the death of the
doctor. some months later, they lived
and cohabited as husband and wife.
The decisive question is whether the
parties were married in accordance
with the German law. which by stipu-
lation is: The contradiction of a
marriage, even If only one of the par
ties is a German. Is determined in re-
spect of each of the parties by the
laws of the country of which he or
she is a subject. The same rule APP

within the empire is determined ex-

She learned to see the faults in and
make fun of every one she met.
She learned to make her circle OF
friends q very exclusive one. and even
in this select circle to find many i'm
projections. 1t was a case of 'sail the
worlds queer except thee and me, and
sometimes l think that thee is little

And know she thought that she had
improved and looked back with derision
on the blind little girl she had once
been.
While really she is just as blind as
she ever was. She used to see one half
the picture. and now she sees the other
half And the half she sees now Isn't
near so pretty, and looking at it doesn't
make her nearly so nice girl as look

! For it's one of the greatest truths
(, in this world that the more you can
find in them the more lovabie and
worthy you yourself will become.
The man who sees all the hidden
| faults in people ano sees nothing else
is not a good Judge of human nature
any more than the man who can cleverly
pick a book to pieces is thereby a good

Good criticism, in its right sense,
doesn't mean merely finding faults. 1t
also means appreciatiEg good qualities.
Don't be proud of yourself because
you can see faults 1t isn't thing to

object for pity than pride.
