CARE OF THE FIRST TEETH
Health Talks No. is

Because the first set of teeth ofs.a
child come out easily, many parents
think little Of them and laugh at the
idea that these need attention. But it
sis the first set OF teeth which deter
mine whether the permanent teeth
shall come in straight and make well
formed lips.
The teeth should not be pulled out
.untN the incoming second set has
forced them out. They are needed
to give direction to the tender teeth
to come and perform q very valuable
office. They should be brushed as
carefully as the permanent set and
kept from decay, Many 9 mans face
has been spoiled because his baby
teeth were pulled too soon.

MOVE INTO new
COLLEGE HOME

Last year and last summer especial
ly it was hoped that the fifth school
year could be begun in the new build
ing; but October first came, and it.
was impracticable to move into the
new quarters.
Now moving has been begun, and
after the short Thanksgiving vacation
work will be resumed not in the old
place, but in the new. On Wednes-
day afternoon before the students left
for their homes, a part Of the furni-
ture and fixtures were moved, so that
they could besure that they could re-.
turn to the new building, December
the third.
"A few words Of college history may
be In place. The college was organ
lied in 1908. The first year and se-
cond year all the literary work was
carried on at the Washington Public
school building. The first year the
music department had it's headquar-
ters In the basement of the Swedish
Lutheran church, and the second in
the Anderson house across the street
from the Washington building. The
third year the business work was car
ried on in the Washington building
while the Academic, Domestic Science
and the Music, was all brought togeth-
er at what was called College Hall.
The fourth year again saw changes.
The public schools had grown so that
all of the Washington building was
needed The College also needed
larger quarters. : The old opera house
was secured and remodele to suit the
requirements and here the work was
carried on, with the exception Of some
Of the music. The practice pianos
We're left at Professor Abrahamson'
residence whore they still remain.
This, the fifth school year, work
was begun in the old opera house, but:
Wednesday, Get. 27 was the last day
Of racitations at the old Homestead.
A short Thanksgiving program was
rendered, both on account Of the holi-.
day vacation and also on account Of
rejoicing over the fact that next time
when school is called it will be under
entirely different conditions.
On Tuesday forenoon atssss9:;45, 8; Dec.
8, short program will be given at the
new college building. Our friends are
invited to be present, to rejoice with
students and teachers.

PLANT FOOD AND SOIL FERTILITY


This is the subject of an address de-
livered before the Botanical Society
{ Of America by Cyril G. Hopkins of the
Illinois station. It is issued as Cir
cu]ar No. 155 of that station.
Prof Hopkins states that a recent
publication issuef by the Federal Bu-
reau Of Soils strongly aftirms that the
restoration and maintenance of soil
fertility do not require the applica-
ton of plant food that these foods
exist in abundance in all soils and sub
soils and in the air above them. and
they only need to be unlocked and
brought up from below or down from
above by proper tillage and crop rotar
tion to render them available. The
tilfage aerates the lower soils and
renders their phosphorus and potash
soluble. and the deep-rooted legumes
take up these minerals from the lower
soil and by means of bacteria in the
nodules Of their roots also store up
nitrogen from the air, and when these
roots and stubble decay they leave.
their gathered stores Of plant food in
the top soil for the use Of subseq quentI
crops. B,
P1ufs Hopkins does not question
that this III benefeiat;; but he denies
that It is sufficient. He quotes De
Sarasure, 'Senebier, Davy, Leibing and
the long continued experiments of
Laws and Gilbert at Rothamstead,
England, in contravention Of Prof.
Whitney's doctrine. He shows that
almost century Of the practice Of
restoring to the soil, in the form Of
fertilizers, the plant food removed by
the crops grown, has resulted in pro-
ducing an average Of % bushels Of
wheat per acre in Germany, 33 bush
Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1912-11-28

els in Great Britain and 40 bushels in
Denmark, while the average in the
United States, where no plant food is
restored to the depleted soil is only
| IA bushels per acre.
Prof. Hopkins says this fatal policy:
of steadily drawing from the soils
store of plant food and depositing
none in its stead has led to the aban-
donment Of millions of acres of once
fertile farming lands in the north
eastern states of our country; and
that one of these impoverished farms
within a few miles Of such great mar
kets as Baltimore, Philadelphia and
Washington recently sold for $40 an
acre: whereas if this farm had not
had it's virgin fertility mined out of
the land it would have sold for $500.
an acre.
In this connection, Prof. Hopkins
makes the following most impressive
statement as to the certain and steady
future increase in land values: Dur
ing the last ten years our population
Increased p per cent, the same as
during the preceding ten years; while
thesacreages OF farm land increased on
~ 5 per cent, and Circular No. 38 of
the ~. s. Department of Agriculture
shows that only 8 per cent further
increase in farm lands is possible" "
since that will exhaust the entire tilla-
bic acreage in the country,
Crop Rotation-Humus-Pl Food
Bulletin 128 of the Minnesota sta
ton, by Prof. George Warren Walker,
treats of The relation Of different sys-
TENS of crop rotation to humus and
associated plant food The bulletin is
highly technical, giving much space
to the methods OF determining the
amount of hulnus tdecayed vegeta-
tion) in q soil, and also to- the aseer-
tainment of the amount of plant food
in the humus.
While humus is chiefly valued for
the physical virtues it imparts to soil,
rendering it loose. friable, warm, cas-
lily titled and retentive OF moisture; it
is shown by this bulletin to be also
rich in plant food. Constant clean
culture Of such crops as beets, cotton.
corn, etc, rapidly depletes the soil Of
it's humus; while the growing OF le-
{gumenous (pod- bearing) crops having
a heavy. root system, such as COW
peas, clover, etc, augn,ents the sup
ply Of humus. Hence the advantage
OF crop rotation, the growing of catch
crops, winter cover crops and the
ploWing under Of green crops, weeds.
stubble. etc.
The tests treated of in this bulletin
showed that of the three cardina.
plant foods, humus is richer in nitro
gen than either phosphoric acid or
potash. Wheat was the only crop
grown in crop rotation that appreci
ably exhausted the phosphoric acid
and potash Of the soil humus, and con-
tinuous cropping Of one kind exhaust
ed all the elements much more rapid
~ than when crops were grown in ro-
tation.

Wolverton was born in Mount Yer. non, Ohio. He went to the majors in 1899, joining the Chicago Nationals, and later was transferred to Philadel- phia. He jumped to Washington when the war with the American league was in progress, but later returned to Phil adelphia and was traded to Boston. He was sold to the Williamsport team of the Tristate league, where as man. ager he produced two pennant-winning teams, and then went to Oakland in the Pacific Coast league.

 An eight-room house, somewhat on the bungalow order, is given in this plan. A bungalow, properly speaking, has only one floor; but this plan pro- vides for three bedrooms above, and a kitchen is added at the back, with a lower roof.
 The bungalow developed in this country On the Pacific coast. The idea, probably, was originally brought from India although a great many architects claim that the modern bungalow really is the outgrowth of the log cabins and the sod adobe houses of the early inhabitants of the United States. Probably bunga low architectural ideas could be traced back to all these sources. The result is that we have very comfortable low cost house called a bungalow, which is being extensively built in different parts of the country. and it's popularity is constantly increasing.
 Within easy reach of large cities. bungalows are going up by the hum Greds and the idea is a good one. Peo- pie are tired of being crowded into small, unhealthful quarters, and are taking this means of providing them selves with good, sensible homes at reasonable outlay.
 The original bungalow roof was low and broad; but in order to get more sleeping accommodation, the ridge was raised just enough at first to get one room. Builders, however, have re- peatedly pushed it up higEer, until we see a good many houses built very much after this plan, with about three bedrooms in the roof
 It costs but little more to build a seven or eight room house in this way, than to build five room house with the rooms all on the level The rafters. of course, are longer, and it

And very often the money saved in rent has paid for these improvements. particularly like to see thrift of this kind, and I am optimistic enough to believe that similar sentiments are increasing as the country becomes more thickly populated. I see evi- dences of economy that l never mo- ticed before except in isolated cases. Economy is one of the greatest vir. tues Economy and ignorance seldom go together. It requires a person of more than average intelligence to practice economy sensibly. Economy is not stinginess; there is a wide dis. tinction.
 A house after this plan can be built for $1,000 or $1,500, according to the location, cost of materials, and the price of skilled labor.
