STUDY In GOOD WILL.
Has Been Devised for Elementary Schools
of United States.

Warfare Is to be ended for all time,
at least SO far as the United States is
concerned,and the standard of citizens
in this country is to be put on higher
plane than ever before, by course OF
study in good will which is devised for
the elementary schools. throughout this
country. Such, at least, is the hope of
those who have formulated the course.
A complete outline of the topics cos.
cred in this new school subject is con-
tanned in a government publication just
issued for free distribution by the I'm
tied States bureau of education.
In the lower grades, according to the
bureau of education's monograph, the
child is trained in habits of forbearance,
consideration, gentleness and self-con-
troll, while in the later grades emphasis
as laid upon the principles of the world
peace movement.
Thus in the first grade the child learns
the treatment he should give his com.
panions and pets The second grade
deals with home life, the third with
school and play time, while the fourth
takes up the home town or city. In
grade five the course broadens to in
,clude consideration of the whole coun-
try; in the sixth, the child takes up good
citizenship; in the seventh he studies
the world family, and in the last he
learns what the larger patriotism means.
In this way the child grows up in the
understanding that the good will which
he must show his friends and parents
should also be extended to all the inhab-
itants of the earth. He begins by learn
ing that he must be kind to animals
and playmates because he is in constant
relations with them; then he comes to
understand that this nation should be
at peace with all others, because all
nations are interdependent; and this f.
nally leads TO the last topic in the whole
long course-the united world.
The moral qualities essential to the
world peace movement, such as faith
fulness, generosity, gratitude, hospitali-
ty. fair play, honesty, and considera-
tion for others, are emphasized.
The practical operation of these quail
ties in the field of world politics is shown
by consideration of such
questions as: How can we help our
How can we serve our
What have other nations Civ
en- usf Whist are the moral substi-
tutes for war; Who have contributed
most to civilizations And whyf

GET DOWN TO FERTILITY.
No Reason For Disuse of Plant Food.
PIow Your Land Deeply.

FLOW TOUR LdHu 6coPiy.
In a recent issue Of Fam and Fire
side contributor writes very inter
esting article on soil fertility in which
he shows the different qualities that
soil must have and how. when the soil
becomes depleted, some sorI of replen-
ishment Of the lost qualities must be
provided. Following is an extract from
| the article:
"One of the ways we have of increas-
ing our crop yield is to plow deeper.
That lis like running the hand little
deeper into the pocket, 1t is true, and
it does not take the place of adding to
our soil nitrogen, potash and phos-
phoric acid. but 1t does enable us to
make available soil fertility that is
really ours and to the benefits Of which
we are fairly entitled.
"But will this deeper soil really give
us better crops? That homely creature
the weodchuck may answer that cues
ton for us, wherever he has his home.
See what he does by his system of
deeper digging. The rankest grass on,
the whole farm is right around the
woodchuck hole. What has be done?
He has brought up some Of the fertil-
lty that has all these years been locked
up waiting for us to make 1t available.
The rains have moistened this soil. the
sunshine has warmed 1t, and splendid
grass is the result
80 this is plea for deeper cultiva-
tion. know It will take little harder
work on the part of our horses to bring
this rich earth up. And IL we had to
bold the plow as we used to our arms
would surely ache before night, but
the beautiful riding plows of today.
which hold themselves. have lessened
the work of turning over the soil. We
may as well have the ext depth of
soil to grow better crops as TO let 1t lie
there idle In the dark. On many farms
there are layers of what have been
called hard pan little way below
the surface. These form tables which
hold the moisture and prevent II from
finding fits way deeper into the earth.
They also In some degree form bar
rier to the progress OF plant roots
downward. Other lands do not present
this barrier, but wherever the soil is
thus packed down 1t needs breaking up.
Drainage win do very much to help
about this, and little raising OF the
clevis. so that the plowshare will dive
deeper, will certainly enable our crops
to get hold of and make available the
locked up reserve fertility"

PANEL OF PORTABLE FENCE.

These panels may be built twelve or
fourteen feet in length and must be
thoroughly braced to keep the fence
firm from endwise motion. Cross
pieces at the bottom of the upright
should be long enough to keep the
fence firm sidewise. The upright used
for the portable base should be Q

was about 80 feet in the air and crossing
the racetraek ON the fair grounds, a
cross current of air caused the machine
TO oareen and the next instant he
plunged head-on into row of box stalls

The two attempts of Mr.. Spaulding
which have resulted in no fight clinch-
els the belief Of many persons that it is
useless to attempt to make fight from
