on the part Of both buyers and sellers
to bridge over a rather easier condi-

actual decline in the quotations. This
has been accomplished by sellers re

business at less than the former basis

The Problem of The New Girl
The Little Fedgng of Today Has Got to Try Her Wings
Which Parents Must Realize

will hav, no problem more serious TO
consider than paying her bills.
But there is another kind OF girl, a girl
who has an intellect a girl who thinks,
who has a bold and courageous spirit,
girl who has taken a good education
who is perhaps, college bred and an
athlete and who looks at life very much
with the eyes of a boy.
This girl, when she comes home from
school, finds nothing adequate to her
wants in the life she is asked to lead.
She can't satisfy herself with the rapid
rounds OF society She can't absorb her
self in the hunt for husband, for, while
she means to marry If the right man
comes along, marriage is not the be all
and the end all in life for her as it is
for the Fluffy Ruffles Girl.
This girl has no occupation at home,
because servants do the actual work, and
her mother naturally is not going to abb
dictate her throne as ruler of the house for
a chit of daughter. Also the girl yearns
for financial independence She doesn't
want to go to even the most indulgent of
fathers for every penny.
1t is easy to sneer at this girl for her
residences and discomfort. and to tell
her that she doesn't know when she is
well off and that she should be thankful
that she has a good home to live in and
parents able to support her, and this is
exactly what her father and mother do,
and they accuse her Of being a wicked
and ungrateful girl when she persists in
wanting to go out and try her own wings,
If her parents were wiser they would
try to look at the girls side of the ques-
ton, and to realize that she is bound to
have some outlet for her energies, and
young strength, some occupation for her
idle hands. some object upon which she
can expend her bottled-up enthusiasm
Some girls can find this in society.
Some can't To be able to make
career of bridge whist you have to be
born that way and the sooner parents
realize this, the sooner we shall put
stop to tragedies that darken so many
homes.
There is but one solution of the prob
lem of the unoccuped girl and that is
to occupy her. II is even more true OF
women than men that Satan finds work
for idle hands to do, and the only way
to keep girl out Of mischief is to keep
her busy.
II girl wants to be Of some use in the
world and TO work, her parents are not
only foolish, they are criminal to refuse
her the right too try her powers and they
have only themselves to blame II, in an
excess OF boredom al having nothing TO
do, she runs off from home to find the
natural liberty of action that she had a
right 10. and that has been denied, Per-
haps she may find out that she is not

AVOID RHEUMATISM IN HOGS
Disease is Commonly Caused by Allow.
ing Animals TO Sleep In Damp
and Filthy Quarters.

Rheumatism is commonly caused by
allowing hogs to sleep in damp. filthy
and improperly ventilated quarters.
The system OF ventilation should be
such that there will be no direct cur.
rents OF air striking the animals. The
sun should have free access TO the
houses at all times. This will keep
the sleeping quarters in dry. sanitary
condition.
When affected with rheumatism. the
animals generally become unthrlfty.
and fail to make proper use OF their
feed. the appetite becomes dull. which
gives rise to the rough. scraggy coat.
Prevention should be the first aim Of
the owner. and to accomplish this. tho
Yards, pastures and houses should be
made dry and clean. Damp bedding
aud cold floors should be avoided II

DOUBLES YIELD IN GARDEN
Twice Amount of Vegetables Secured
by Means of Irrigation-One
Farmers Experience.

Six years ago the weather was very
dry. and my garden stuff was not
making the growth that l wanted. so
decided to irrigate 1t. | took my
team and wagon and went to a
stream two miles away with barrels
and brought load of water home
AS this was my first experience in
the business. had no means OF dis
tributing the water except with pans
Farm Progress. However. l went
ahead until l had finished the job.
l gave only a light application at
first, after the sun went down. so
that it would not evaporate so rap
idly. This method called for consid-
cradle labor and time. but in just a
few days | could see a great change
in the growth of my garden stuff.
l continued the irrigation until my
garden corps were matured. and
found I had made just about twice
the amount of stuff that | had been
making on the same land in previous
years. Experience made me rather
enthusiastic about this matter. so
decided to build a large reservoir
that would hold enough water for all
my garden crops. Then il would not
seem such a task to do the irrigating.
and l could do it when wanted to.
So the fall following my first year I
dug very large pond only a short
distance from my garden. During
the winter it filled. The next spring
l did not plant all of my garden stuff
as soon as usual. as the early planted
stuff was hard to keep in shape on
account of heavy spring rains packing
the ground and the weeds getting 4
start before it could be worked.
l laid in a good supply of hose and
bought a good pump. I also secured
a spray attachment. AS soon as the
dry period came on I began my irri-
eating. and kept it up throughout
the entire growing season.
By giving small applications at a
time. every few days, If worked fine
l find that the yield can be doubled
every year. and sometimes il will be
more than doubled. Since learning
the real value Of this irrigating l
would not think u trying TO raise a
garden without irrigating it If the
weather gets dry. OF course. there
are people who would scoff at the
idea.
would advise every reader to try
this once. if they have a garden and
want to make the most of it, II
will not take long. even though you
have to haul your water. 1t is better.
however. to either dig a cistern or a
pond. Perhaps some will have a
stream of living water near by that
they can utilize. or a we'll near the
house that will afford plenty Of
water.
