PRIDE IN COMMUNITY SPIRIT
Efficient Leadership All That 10 Need
ed In Many cases to Make
Cooperation Power.

The proper development of the
community spirit in neighborhood
can have but one logical conclusion
1t will result in undoubted advantage.
The world in general has long since
realized the benefits of cooperation,
and In some respects this is true in
the farming world. Take some COM
mon concrete instances seen in the
routine work Of the farm. BY trading
work during the threshing season,
each farmer has his grain threshed
with much less trouble to himself
than If he had to hire all the neces-
sary help. The old-fashioned quilting
bee is another homely Illustration Of
the spirit of cooperation. Farmer
Brown may exchange work with
Neighbor Jones in haying. These
SIMPLE instances are given little heed
by the average person. yet they show
that the spirit of cooperation exists
in every neighborhood. Many times
efficient leadership is all that is need
ed to make this fact of cooperation
a power for good In developing q
strong community spirit.
There is a part of a township In
southern Iowa that shows the results
of one mans leadership in establish
ing community spirit. This man
has always had as much work to do
as any of his neighbors. He never
theless found time to keep the half
mile of road adjoining his farm drag
ged, no matter how busy he was. The
weeds in and along this stretch of
road were moved regularly. The
weeds along the fence rows were kept
moved and the corners cleaned of
rubbish. The fences were kept in
good repair. The liberal use of paint
made the house and barn attractive.
A well kept lawn and premises made
the place particularly attractive as
compared with the other farms. The
work this man did was pioneer work,
but 1t was pioneer work that paid
The visitor in that neighborhood to-
day can scarcely fall to be impressed
by the air Of neatness and prosperity
that pervades the whole community
The community spirit Of pride in
the appearance of the farm was de-
veloped through the silent yet effec-
tive work of one man. The instance
given could be duplicated in one way
or another in many communities. The
spirit may be shown in the develop
ment of a certain type OF grain or Of
live stock. In certain county Of
Wisconsin the Guernsey breeders are
proud of the high-producing herds
that have been developed. No man
can live long in that neighborhood
and be contented with low-produc-
ing herd. In this instance the commu-
nifty spirit has worked untold good for
the dairy interests. The community
spirit makes for better farming and
for more profit.-Orange Judd Farm

IMPORTANT PINCH OF SALT

Few housewives, especially the 1T

the aroma of the tea, making 1t actual
" fragrant by neutralizing the nat
ness Of the water. This will be found
especially 80 In localities where the

1t should always be used in coffee and

At preserving time remember the
