A Boston lady talks entertainingly
OF food and the changes that can be
made nxealth by some knowledge on
that line. She says:
AN injury to my spine In early wom-
anhood left me subject to severe sick
headaches which would last three or
four days at time, and a violent
course OF drugging brought on consti-
tion with all the ills that follow.
Why appetite was always light and
uncertain and many kinds of food dis
tressed me.
Il began to eat GrapeNuts food two
or three years ago, because liked the
taste of IL, and l kept on because /
soon found it was doing me good.
Il eat it regularly at breakfast, fre
quently at luncheon, and again before
going to bed-and have no trouble in
sleeping on It, 1t has relieved my con-
stipation, my headaches have practi-
cally ceased, and l am in better physi-
cal condition at the age of 63 than ]

AS THE TWIG IS BENT
IT IS EASY TO TEACH LITTLE
CHILD GOOD MANNERS.
While His Mind Is Plastic He Should
Be Trained In the Home In Proper
Behavior and Language.

Good manners, like charity. should
begin at home. Let me add that they
should begin with the little children,
while their minds are in a receptive,
plastic condition. With use, the
good manners, especially of speech,
grow toward a state of perfection.
You do not need to have governess
or tutor for your child. You can be-
gin to train him yourself, being care
full to correct every bad tendency and
to encourage and praise every good
action.
Some little ones are painfully shy
in the presence of strangers. In
spire confidence in them and let them
gradually become accustomed to the
outsider. Do not force the shy child
to kiss stranger or to talk to one
when you see that it is positive tor
ture. Wait till he is little older.
In speech, begin right away with
the use of thank you" and please"
l know children with extremely linn
tied yocabularies who use these terms
correctly.
Insist that there be no Interrupt
tions when others are speaking. Give
child his opportunity to be heard,
and when he asks a question for in
formation. answer him. If he is
merely asking for the sake of asking.
and pays no attention to the reply,
punish him by refusing the next time
and telling him why you refuse.
When you call child, do not per-
NIT it to say "What?" 1t is crude,
abrupt and lacks something which lis
so easily supplied that you should not
neglect the opportunity to do so.
Very much better is, What did you
say, mother?" or Il did not hear,
father" Try this for the difference
If you doubt my word.
Children can show the required def
erence to elders not by Eyes, ma'am," "
for that is obsolete and more the sign
of respect shown by a servant to an
employer. Better than this is the
mo, Aunt Mary" or Yes, father"
When an older person greets lit
tie child and asks How are your
he should not be met by a hanging
head and sullen face. The little one
should reply, Very well, thank you. +"
1t is very easy to teach these little
things when the boy or girl is young.
A little girl when entering a room
should stand beside her mothers chair
until introduced. A little boy should
always rise when his elders enter a
room and remain standing until the
| others are seated.
oh, 1t is easy to bend the twig!
remember the wall and regret of one
man who at mature age had to be
taught all the little things that should
have been drilled in when he was a
little boy.
Today notice the speech of any lit
tie one around you. Find out the
flaws and begin right away to cor
rect the imperfections. You will be
gratified with the results.-Philadel
phia North American.

Suburban Sobriquets.

Everybody else had lived In the
summer colony long enough to name
his home for whatever tree or shrub
grew most abundantly in the front or
back yards. Up and down the road
were cottages labeled the Elms, the
Wistaria, the Lilacs, and so on through
the horticultural guide book. The
newcomer had no name for her house,
but after studying the tactics for a
week she took a survey of the prem
ises and thenceforward dated her cor
respondence the Rhubarbs.

to consider is the reason why one
soil holds more water than another. II
the capacity Of a soil for water can
be increased by any means, 1t would
be of great importance to the tillers
Of the soil. There are two principal
things which cause soils to hold more
water. One is fineness Of the soil par
ticles or grains, and the other Is the
amount of organic matter or humus
which the soil contains. The fine grains
of the clay loan soil, together with the
humus which 1t contains, and the
amount Of organic matter and
humus in the muck soils, puts
them In condition to hold
more water than the sandy loan soil.
The finer the grains of any soil the
more water 1t will hold. The addition
of organic matter to a soil will cause it
to hold more water.
1t would be hard matter to make
the grains of a soil finer than they are
in any case, but great deal can be
done to make the particles or soil
crumbs finer by cultivating soils prop
erly, and only when they are in the
proper condition to be worked. Organ
ic matter or humus can be added to
the soil cheaply and in many different
ways. Flowing under clover or clover
sod, adding barnyard manure, sowing
rye or vetch In the fall and plowing it
under in the spring are some OF the
methods by which organic matter can
n x1yiIl
the soil in condition to hold more wa
ter for the growing crop, and will be
helpful In many other ways.

matter that they may be rendered nor
mally productive.
In intensive farming. orcharding and
trucking, and where abundant quaint.
ties of barn yard manure cannot be
had, special means must be employed
to increase the amount of organic
matter in the soil.
In the case Of the run down soils
and In case Of the intensive farming,
orcharding and trucking. mentioned
above, 1t becomes necessary to adopt
a special method of increasing the
amount Of organic matter in the soil.
This method is usually spoken of as
green manuring. 1t consists of the
planting and growing of a crop to
plow under before it has reached ma,
turity. The crops most commonly
used for the purpose are:
Rye.
Oats.
Corn sown broadcast or drilled with
ordinary drill at the rate of bushel
per acre, and sometimes a combina-
tion Of oats and peas.
In some sections of the country
cow peas or soy beans are grown for
this purpose. These are used much liz
the south and also on the heavy clay
soils of the central states.
The hairy or winter vetch is some
sometimes used. At the present time
the hairy vetch is being used with
marked success on some of the light
er lands OF western Michigan.
Rye and vetches are usually sown in
the fall or late summer. The others
are sown in the spring as early as
conditions for the several crops will
permit.
The rate Of sowing Is usually lit
tie heavier than that employed In
growing crops for grain or seed.
Some difficulties are sometimes met
with in the plowing under Of the drop
Where 1t Is dense, 1t is sometimes nee
essary to use roller upon It before
attempting to plow, care being taken
to roll 1t In the same direction as the
plowing Is to be done. 1t is also time

insure the complete covering of the
tops of the crop.
Two dangers are to be guarde
against. 1t is not always that the
green manure crop Is allowed to ap-
proach maturity, but however this
may be. II the succeeding crop is to
be planted Immediately after the green
manure crop is plowed under, unless
care is observed, the material which
is plowed under will cut off the cap
Hilary rise Of water from the lower
soil, with the result that the upper
soil. remains too dry to support ger
mination or growth. A heavier roll
er should be employed Immediately
after the plowing, and this should be
closely followed by a thorough work
ing with packing or stirring tools. The
other danger is that Of the souring or
fermenting of the green material plow.
ed under. The more rank the grouth
and the heavier the soil the greater is
the danger of this souring. II there
fore the soil is inclined to be heavy
and II the crop is to be sown shortly.
the green manure crop should not be
allowed to make too large growth bs-
