and dairy farming in lie est, the modern farmer
has caught the scen-llC spirit Of the time and
is getting practical 1e5u s from his realization
of the fact that me- Ga must accommodate
themselves to changing r2ni'tions.
At the annual sl....u Of the American
Institute Of Electrical Engineers held recently
IN Boston, the electrical farm was considered in
a paper by Putnam A. Bates. He discussed in
some detail the work being done by farm
ers who are developing the arid districts of the
west, showing that irrigation and electricity are
the two factors that promise most for the future
where natural conditions are for the most part
against the farmer. Irrigation came first and
then the advantages of electric power pumping
were realized. The so-called electrical farm has
been In existence for dozen years more, but
1t is only recently that there has been an organ
lied effort to disseminate knowledge on the prac-
teal use of electricity in agriculture
Referring to the southwest and to the elec-
trio farm as he found 1t there, Mr.. Bates says:
I'm some sections of that wonderfully fertile
country, well protected by the high mountain
ranges, practically every farm Is an electric
farm Thta is to say, the buildings are lighted
by electricity and many of the laborious opera
tions are accomplished by the of electric
power These really were first electric farms

more progressive farmers. The up-to-
date farmer Is very much aware OF
the fact that the regular grooming OF
COWS increases the supply Of milk
and counts strongly for cleanliness.
He now has an electrical device for
doing this.
One of the most interesting cleo
trical devices on the modern farm ls
the telephone. In the old days the
men and women were called from the
fields for dinner by the blowing OF
horn or by sending the small BOY
trudging across the field with the
good news. The modern farmers men
take to the fields with them tele-
phone which can be rigged up near
where they are working and receive
messages from the house by that
means.
With the installation Of these eiec-
trical devices much of the romantic
side of life on the farm passes away.
Even modern poet would nave
hard time getting anything lyrical OUT
of an electrical mixer, and the beauty
of a load of hay somehow fades when
a motor truck goes chugglng across
the fields with it. But the American
farmer ceased to be romantic when
the graphophone took the place OF the
wheezy old organ and when his wife

to go to bed early, you may imagin that his reform was immediate. With in few days he begged his mothe to allow him to go back to the old bed time, and he promised his mother tha mornings would be all right.
 He has grown into a bright and sun ny 'dispositioned man.
 Imagine what might have happened had he been allowed to continue the bad habit.
 Integrity is primal.
 Integrity has a large range in the activities of a child-is an important factor in the child's attainment. Integrity of word-exactness and accuracy-should be insisted upon, un swervingIy.
 In the keeping of promises, the chile should be taught not to make them lightly, and to keep them unfailing.
 There are tactful ways of teaching this, as all else.
 Remember, child learns by object lessons, and not by being talked to. Give him strong object lessons-to keep the thought pure, the word cor rect-and the deeds will be right, of necessity.
 Get tho child's confidence-fear makes towards, thieves and liars.
 Remembering falls under integrity; 1t is integrity of purpose that makes us remember. Notice this: When we enlist the will and determination of the child our work is done. A child re- members when he truly, wishes to do SC.
 Fairness in Play
 A child who sneaks, lies or cheats is the forerunner of a dishonest man O. woman.
 Service IG Primal To fulfill his part in life, the child must serve the whole. The main de sire of life is happiness; but he who seeks it directly, does not get it.
 Blessedness comes through service. Service means what we contribute to the comfort, happiness or uplift o1 others, or to the development of the race. Service is indispensable to character. Children have to be taught arithmetic, pr geography. If they are allowed to | -hink of nothing but their own pleasure hey will grow up selfish and unhap- )y.
 Suggestions
 Let each child have some part in the york of the home; make them feel his responsibility

Obedience is primal.

Obedience is primal.
 The laws of nature teach this; the laws of life, in every phase. teach it.
 The child will have to learn it some time; we can save him many hard experiences by fulfilling our duty as parents and teaching him while he is young. The person without self-con- trol. which comes through obedience, suffers much.
 How shall we teach it?
 Physical punishment for disobedi- enee Is low way of meeting the need, and am certain it is unnecessary; and yet, so Important do I consider this point, that I'd say, 'have obedience if physical punishment has to be resorted to-" Be firm with children, at all times; never tell a child to do a thing unless you mean him to do it.
 Obedience should be prompt and cheerful.
 There are many ways of securing this The best way is always to let the punishment" seem, to the child, to be the result-the direct conse- Quence of his own act.
 For example, I knew a boy, once, when he was called in the morning, he took long time to get his eyes open, and had to be called many times before he crawled from bed, in an ugly mood that showed itself for an hour or two in crossness and irritability. When the mother became convinced that there was no cause for this, ex- eept his giving away to pettishness, she proceeded, very effectively, in this way: Sam. what makes you act in this manner in the mornings? Per haps you do not get enough sleep. | You will go to bed earlier; so, begin tonight You may go at half-past sev- eA instead of eight; and make it half hour earlier each night until we find the amount of sleep you need to make you ready to get up, bright and hriy, the moment you are called" Nov. as this boy disliked very much
Arizona sentinel and Yuma weekly examiner., 1912-11-14

to all with whom he comes in contact.
 Call upon him to do something for you or another.
 Teach him that he is here for ser vice; but let this teaching, as all oth- CTS, be through the doing, rather than by talking.
 The foregoing are only suggestions as Emerson said, "Only the prin- ciples to be worked out''-one cannot 90 into details.
 I hope it will encourage those who have the grave responsibility of chil- dren to train, to be faithful in their work with children.
 With care, love and perseverance we can accomplish wonders. The Great Intelligence works with us at every step.
 The next subject will be Rewards and Punishment"
