In overheated, dry-atmosphered living
rooms, the red spider is sure to do more
or less damage to the plants, unless
something is done to keep it in check.
None of the emulsions, tobacco extracts
or other applications advised for use in
lighting plant enemies are of any use
here.
The best thing to use-the only thing
that will be of benefits water-Just
plain, undoctored water.
What the red spider breads more than
anything else is moisture. He will not
stay where the air is kept moist is he
can get away, and IL he cannot get away
he is unable to do much harm.
Here is where the sprayer comes in
to play. See that your plants are thor
oughly wet, all over, at least three times
a week-once day is bitter.
Be sure that the moisture gets to the
under side of the leaves, where the spid-
er likes to hide away. Most persons are
not aware Of the presence of this tiny
but terribly destructive creature, because
1t is unnoticeable unless one takes spe-
cial pains to seek him out
But If they find that leaves on their
plants are turning yellow and falling OF,
they viii have good reason to suspect
that the red spider is at the bottom of
the trouble.

THE rAnM HOUSE mrcHEN

THE TARM HOUSE KITCHEN
If the farm houses could be recon
structed along the lines of the modern
city homes. even of the class that are
occupied by clerks and laborers on
small salaries. the life of the farm
wife would be made inestimably cas-
Ter.
For $3.50 the farm kitchen could be
supplied with a water storage tank
hot water heater, porcelain lined sinks
and waste pipes. The saving IN drudg-
cry and time and the Increased comfort
can be appreciated only by those who
have worked without these conven-
fences.
While it is true that many modern
farm houses are equipped with these
appliances, the large majority Of homes
are without them. Many women today
are doing their work in the same way,
with the same lack of conveniences,
with which their mothers and grand
mothe rs wore out their lives.
RACE SUICIDE ON THE FARM
The pitiful story was told recently
in northern daily paper of an INDUS
trious and capable farm Iaborer who
had answered several advertisements OF
farmers in need of just such expert
enced services as he was able to rem
der; but whose APPLICATION was reject
ed, in each instance. because he had
wife and two small children. The
farmers wanted neither women nor
children about their farms. So this
competent farm worker was obliged to
accept employment in city stable.
1t is to be feared that this is by no
means an isolated instance. Human
kindness has been so far eliminated.
in many cases, from the relationship
between the farmer and his hired help,
and that relationship has been put SO
exclusively on a hard business basis,
that the complaint is common that
"the farmer cares more for the COM
fort and happiness of his cattle and
hogs than he does for the well-being OF
his men"
Under healthier conditions IN rural
life, the married workman would re-
ceive the same preference that he gen.
orally does from employers in mercan
tile and manufacturing pursuitsi as be-
ing more reliable and less likely TO
seek a change. IL fairly well treated,
than the single man. Aside from this,
however. there is a moral and social
obligation. resting at least as strongly
on the farmer as on any one else. 70
encourage family life among workers
and thus to promote stability In rural
populations and to discourage the
nomadism among laborers which is the
bane of our agricultural enterprises.
1t is altogether probable that the ac-
tual decline in population, shown by
the last census to have taken place In
extensive agricultural areas, is due "a
the encouragement of marriage among
farm workers, and the refusal of em-
ployment to men with families.
That way lies the decline of states
and the ruin Of democracy. II we want
growth In population. and the perfect
working out of the Democratic ideas
underlying American institutions, we
must reverse our methods, welcome
rather than repel the man with fam
lily. and be willing to share with HIM
some portion of the opportunities OF
the farm.

A HANDY LIFTING DEVICE

This is a portable hay derrick which
can be used for lifting many things
about the farm. It is excellent for load
ing shocks of fodder onto q wagon in
the field.
Placed on runners, it can be hauled
along the row of shocks and with its
use one man can load as much corn as
three can without 1t. 1t is also useful
in loading hay from the stack to the
wagon or from the cock to the wagon.

prsC MANuRE UNDER

Manures and roots of plants are espe-
cially useful in controlling soil moisture.
Hence crops grow better where manHres
and grasses are largely used. A heavy
coating of coarse manure plowed under
in the spring may result unfavorably by
separating the furrow slice and subsoil
and causing the surface soil to become
too dry. 1t is often better to make
lighter applications of manure and to
disc it into the surface rather than to
plow it under

Formerly the ordinary blacksr=..--sss,
who knew very little about the under
lying principles that should govern
horse shooeing, was called upon to sfloe
horses AS a result very much OF the
work done was inferior and suoh work
reacted in many instances against tns
usefulness of the horse that was thps
shod.
The advance that has been made m
this branch Of blacksmithing during re-
cent years, has been very great.
The work of shoeing horses is so wa
riable in it's requirements that no smS-
degree of skill is required on the pare
of those engaged in the business.
1t would perhaps be correct to say
that no horse sheer is fully equipped
for his work who does not understand
considerable about the anatomy of the
horses foot. He should also be able
to detect defects in the animals loco
motion and should know how to shoe
the horse in such a way thar the evils
arising from these defects win % les
sened or overcome entirely.
