More time should be devoted to read
ing circles, sewing circles and poultry
clubs, and the inordinate consumption
of food left off.
The farm has produced the strong
est people in the world, and the farm
er's wife has the facilities at hand
for splendid results. There are so
many labor saving devices, inventions
and Investigations today, to tighten
the burden of home making, that there
is no excuse for the woman who fails
on her side of the partnership which
is conducted on a proper basis.
Some daring writer has asserted,
Educate boy and you educate an
individual, educate girl and you edu-
cate a Whole family" But I insist
educate both boy and girl, since the
home is the unit of American civiliza-
ton. We should endeavor to make
of our children the best possible prod
uct of that home; just the alchemist
turns out refined god, or the sculp-
tor chisels a figure that others might
do well to copy.
By rousing herself to the facilities
within her grasp, every woman on the
farm is able to do more for her chill
dren both socially and educationally;
for through the combination of men
tai and physical labor an ideal life
may be attained.
Unceasing toll is the price of sue
cess. 1t never comes by "the gift
route"

of Southern France they plant vine
yards from which they gather the
luscious grapes that make the vintage
La Francois famous the world over.
Some one has said, Gas your wom-
en- are, so will the nation be-"
In the nations development and
progress the country woman plays an
important part; and she should earn
how to improve conditions in the
home while her husband informs him
self of the best methods of farming.
In various States the girls toma-
to clubs and poultry clubs have been
organized with most gratifying re-
suits"
Intense farming" not only means
more wheat or corn to the acre, but
more hens to the acre, more eggs to
to the hen, and more money to the
farmers bank account.
The federal government is giving
large aid to successful poultry keep
ing. Farmers wives and daughters
everywhere are being taught the prac-
teal side Of poultry cu|turo and egg
production. e
1t has been estimated that over
$3.50 100000 was made last year from
poultry in the United States. This
means a big income without appre-
ciabe output; for the feeds right at
hand are the best. Nothing eXcels
lettuce as tonic for your hens. Meat
is one of the finest egg producers in
/ the world.
New Jersey alone yields an income
of 100000 annually from poultry.
OF all Southern States, Tennessee is
preeminent in fine poultry; for Ten
nessee is the home Of many fanciers.
One woman alone has attracted the
attention of the entire farming world
to Dixon Springs, Tenn, a little vii
lage nestled back among the hills OF
Smith county, near the banks of our
picturesque Cumberland. The woman
is Mrs. S. c. Bridgewater, the famous
Single Comb Buff Orpington special
list. Her birds have never met defeat,
and the demand for eggs steadily
comes from Mainc to California,
from Canada to Mexico, from England
to Australia. Mrs. Bridgewater re-
ceives whatever she asks for her eggs
or fowls, but since she is philan-
thropist her prices are modest in or
der that this splendid strain may be
widely distributed.
Mrs. Florence Forbes, of New De-
catur. Ala, is another notable exam
pie of what a woman may accomplish
with poultry. Handicapped by i'll
health she today has one OF the best
equipped plants in the South, and has
made an enviable reputation as a
breeder of thoroughbreds.
Get one breed of fowls, stick to
it. and try to bring it up to perfec-
ton. The successful poultry raiser
not only aims at a good supply, but
she endeavors to secure the finest
quality. Feed your fowls systemati-
cally if you expect thrifty fowls, and
satisfactory production in eggs.
If the personality of the home pre-
vailed, instead OF the thought of food,
more real profit and happiness might
be found in the homes of the farmers.

Negro Inventors.

Two young men born in Texas, but
bred in California, have invented an
electric device for controlling traffic
in contested districts. The invention
looks like a four-sided semaphore. It
is electrically operated and obviates
the necessity of the crossing police

street. Instead, he may stand on any
one of the corners and by pressing
button, sound a signal and change
the signs. The inventors are G. R..
