dawning. Given or moderate size
farm, two general plans of deriving livelihood
farmer He may specialize, many of his
brothers of the soil doing-that is
trate all his energy and investment the
duct1on of one product, in handling which he aims
to become an expert, If he he hesitates to thus
put AL his eggs in basket" he may carry
on diversified activities. Which of these plans is
best cannot be determined by any rule of thumb.
Each individual case must be a law unto itself.
Much depends upon the size and location of the
farm; its proximity to markets; the size of the
farmers family; the labor problem in the locali-
ty; and finally the temperament of the farmer
himself Even given two farms of equal size.
side by side, the owner of might be qualified
for specialization where his neighbor would at
tain better results by favoring that variety which
to many people is the spice of life.
Probably, agricultural expert, in the
case of the average, well-located small farm the
ideal policy theoretically, is that which prescribes
specialization. but also plans for
side lines, which will contribute to the farm
income almost from the start and may ultimately
develop into an important factor from a financial
standpoint. This means, in effect that the farm
er should concentrate largely upon product
or group of products, which derive the bene
fits that almost always accrue from undivided at
tention, but that he members of his household
should have minor supplementary sources of
income. such bee keeping, poultry raising. etc.
which. while well worth while. would not repre-
sent sufficient investment present serious
enough problems distract the mind of the farm
er from the main business in hand With this
latter consideration in view, it is especially for
tunate when the side lines" the farm are
such that the whole responsibility for them
be taken over by the women and children of
household without bothering the farmer with the
matter at all during his busy season.
Outlines side line" becomes double bless
ing because it discloses means of making

covered that the neglected "by-products" of

CHILD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUMOR

ct think the Cuticura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema l have
ever heard of. My mother had child
who had a rash on its head when 1t
was real young. Doctor called it baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but it did
no good. In a few days the head was
a solid mass, a running sore. 1t was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got dollar bottle of Cuticura Re
solvent, box of Cuticura Ointment,
and a bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had a beau
tiful head of hair. 1 think the Cuti-
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
1t makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis
Lund, Plain City, Utah, Sept. 10, 1910.
Although Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment are sold everywhere, a sample
of each, with 32-page book, will be
mailed free on application to "Cuti-
cura," Dept II L, Boston.

the 'by-products" that have utilized
raculously in the manufacturing world. AS illus
tratons of the application of this principle the
farm there may be cited the of the farmer
folk who make lavish pin money" by pre-
pairing preserves and jelly with the surplus fruit
and vegetables that would otherwise be wasted,
and of the country housewives who in their leis-
ure moments make cushions and all manner OF

ilarly, rural resident is growing rich from
south and southwest some ingenious people have
taken up ostrich farming" and selling the
plumes from the birds at prices that make the
enterprise well worth while
Poultry raising is a side line that comes to
mind the minute mention is made of any such
activities. There have been thousands of in
stances where chickens, allowed to wild on
the farm, have ultimately been the means of
swelling the family bank account, and to pursue
the subject still farther, it be cited that
many farmer or farmers wife who began to
keep chickens" solely with view to marketing
the poultry has been surprised in due course to
find that the eggs, to which scarce thought had
been given a source of revenue, have rivaled
the dressed fowl in the income yield Particularly
has this been the in recent years when eggs
have brought high sixty cents dozen in
city markets. Eggs as "byproduct" would yield
even bigger dividends if taken to
gather them at least twice day and to get them
to market somewhat more promptly, for. be 1t
known, guaranteed "a hour eggs" will always
bring five ten cents dozen more than the
ordinary of fresh eggs.
Without disparaging the merits of poultry as
side line, however, it may be suggested that bee
keeping is perhaps the most truly ideal incidental
occupation on the farm. Indeed the experts
strongly advise that bee keeping be not made
sole occupation, although there are many 10
calities where experienced bee keeper can
make a good living by devot1ng his entire time
and attention the work, once he has the re-
quisite knowledge The beauty about bee keep

of affairs will tend to bring into favor
here the small farms that have long

The guests at Mrs. Arthur Mics
tea yesterday afternoon detected an
odor of something burning. They
said: Poor Mrs. Mize, something Is

odor grew stronger, and at last one

feathers are burning" Then sudden
ly one woman screamed: Mrs. Chal-
Hss, look at your hati" Sure enough.
Mrs Jim Challiss had been standing
near lighted candle, and the aigrette
on her hat was on fire.
The guests had a great time putting
out the fire. The aigrette was what
the insurance men call a total loss.
An Atchison woman who has gone to
thousands of receptions says the burn

has given up going because nothing
ever happened, but now will start In
