young child over year old is grow
ing at tremendous pace. 1t stands
in no need of stimulation-quite the
reverse You stimulate IL at the per-
IL of doing great harm. The less ex-
element young children have the
better. Let them learn to talk grad
ually and let them take their time
about It.
There are some points, however,
in which backwardness is sign
that there is something really wrong
The chief cause of this backward
ness is imperfect bone formation Of
the fontanelle.
This Is the name given to the soft
place Just on top Of the baby's head.
It is a French word and means a "lit-
lite fountain"
At birth this soft place is about
the size of fifty-cent piece. At six
months old, IL the child Is strong
and healthy the space between the
bones should have decreased, be-
cause with the power of the bones
what it ought to be the skull bones
have grown and are coming together.
The soft place at six months old
should be no bigger than quarter.
At twelve months it should be only
the size OF dime and when the
child is two years old you should
not be able to feel the spot at all.
If the soft spot exists in two-year
old child it is distinct proof that the
child is backward in its whole physi-
cal development.
At the end of the third month
baby should be able to hold its head
erect. BY the sixth month 1t should
be able to sit up straight and to
hold a rattle or something Of the
kind. Between the seventh and
eighth months one or two teeth
should be cut. There may, however
be some delay in the cutting Of the
teeth. Should there be no sign OF
a tooth when the child has passed
its ninth month doctor should be
consulted, as late teething Is gener-
ally due to some lack Of bone form
ing power.

HOW TO TELL IF
BABY is BACKWARD

Is the baby backward? This, is a
question of interest to every moth
er with baby, but chiefly of course
to the mother who is anxious to
know whether her baby is really
backward or not. What is back
wardness? What causes it? How
shall it be detected?
For instance some children can
walk at year old; many cannot.
But the child who cannot must not
be classed as backward, nor need
his mother be uneasy on his account.
He is, as a rule, merely little slow
er in developing than others. When
he is two years old he will probably
walk just as sturdily as the one who
was toddling at twelve months.
If, however, at two years of age
he still makes no effort to get on
ward and the backwardness needs
medical attention.
The same thing holds good with
talking. Some children can talk
much earlier than others. Some in
fants at IS months can converse
quite intelligently in a small way.
At that age certain other children
can say only a few words. The first
child in family Is often more back
ward in talking than his brothers
and sisters, because he has not the
example Of the others to help him
express himself.
Forwardness either in walking or
talking is not so desirable thing as
some people imagine. For example,
when a heavy child Is put upon his
feet, as he often is, at nine or ten
months and is encouraged and urged
to walk so that the proud coast may
be made that he walked before he
was year old, the frequent result
Is that his legs are bowed. II the
poor little thing had the good for
tune TO be more backward that de-
formity probably would not have hap
pened.
Serious mischief is often done to
children in the desire to prove how
forward they are, especially in this
matter of walking. They are encour
aged to walk far beyond Their
strength, and cases have occurred
where infantile paralysis has bees
induced, largely through over walk
ing.
serious Effects
Trying to make the child walk toe
soon may have serious effect upor
his brain, because such efforts lear
toward over excitement OF the child'i
nervous system. The brain Of q

COST OF FARMING

How many farmers today can tell
what it costs to produce bushel OF
wheat, oals or corn; TO grow E.eet
{. maturity or to raise a horse ~eady
for market? The number is mighty
small, and the reason is that the
country has been too rich. Money
was made too easily. We did not
have to know the cost of produc.
ton; this time is forever past. Land
and interest rates today are too high
to permit of useless waste. This
waste is only located by keeping
an accurate set of books.

ARKANSAS, HISTORIC
OLD STATE CAPITOL

Our readers will find in this is
sue a special illustrated article
regarding the old statehouse,
which we believe will he of un.
usual interest at this time. A
fight is now being made to pre-
vent the sale or destruction of the
historic structure, which is older
th2a the state itself.
The sentiment in favor of pre-
serving the Old capitol has been
growing steadily and the move
ment is being pushed vigorously.
The article which is published
this week is timely and contain
some interesting information re.
garding the history of the old
building and the fight that is be-
ing made to save it.
The old capitol is nearly so
years old, the work of construct
ion having been started in 1888,
three years before Arkansas va
admittedito the union. This arti-
Gle tells Of some of the exciting
events that have transpired with
in the Old building during the
long years that it has been the
seat of state government. 1t
also tells how it is planned to
make the statehouse a great
museum andexhibit hall, in which
the products of every county in
the state will be displayed.

WHY 90 YOU DO IT?

The Baltimore newspapers say
that on May first, 1860 different
sa oon-keepers of that city had
each paid their license fee of
one thousand dollars for the COM
ing year.
What did these 1860 men pay
this huge sum of money for-one
million, two hundred and sixty
thousand dollars?
They paid it for t e privilege
of establishing that many public
nuisances in Baltimore.
They paid it for the privilege
oflessening the value of property
in the vicinity of every one G.
those places.
They paid it for the privilege
of preyirg the peoples taxes by
promoting crime, vice. disease
and disorder; to compel the fpeo-
pie to employ vast police and
detective force to preserve the
peace.
