Sunday School Commission.

The Sunday School Commission
OF the Michigan City diocese of the

meeting in Plymouth Saturday.
Delegates were here from most of
the cities Of the district, and much
interest was shown in the new work.
Subjects for discussion embraced

In many parts of the country the
Episcopal church has not been
identified with this movement, but
as a measure of advancement has
been made. a work along somewhat
similar lines. but adapted TO their

inaugurated. and this first conyen-

that will be made to get results
that are desired. both in the train

and interest of the scholars.
The enthusiasm and interest
shown by those in attendance at
this meeting speaks well for the

Demonstration Orchards.

Many farmers are waking up to
the necessity Of giving their farm
orchards more attention. so as TO
get better and more fruit. Still
there Is much indifference to this
subject. Numbers of farmers still
think that when they have planted a
tree, that is all there is necessary
when in reality this Is but a start,
and the real growing of he tree,
nurturing it and bringing it to It's
full, as money maker, is vet to be
done.
That it is worth while giving
such matters attention is not a ques-
ton that need be discussed. Every
intelligent farmer knows that he
must work and cultivate in every
way If he makes any crop pay, and
there Is no crop that will return
bigger profits than a well cared for
orchard. The great trouble is that
many farmers do not understand
the subject Of growing fruit, and to
awaken an interest in this direction.
Purdue Agricultural Experiment de-
partment Is conducting what are
known as Demonstration Orchards
IN various sections of the state.
These orchards are managed on a
tve-year basis, and are proving
very beneficial where they are being
maintained.
1t has been suggested that such an
orchard in this section of Indiana
would be a means of awakening in
tereSt. Results would be shown
right here at our doors that would
ne convincing. and farmers would
see the demonstration of the
theories advanced. \ lack of means
prevents the establishment of such
a station here at present. but if a
number of progressive farmers could
be induced to give the measure a
little support. there is no reason
why 1t should not be done in Mar
shall county. Mr.. F. \. Forbes has
letter bearing on the subject
from {. q. Woodbury. head of the
Horticultural department at Purdue.
and it will be worth while seeing
what can be done to start such a
project. and get Demonstration
Orchard started this year in Mar
shall county. 1t can be done if the
farmers care to 90 after it with
energy.

These people cannot help them
selves. Mrs. Bacon declared They
are at the mercy of the shvlocks of
landlords WHO get the rents and re-
fuse to make their houses habitable
fer human beings.
Mrs. Bacon. with many others in
the state. is working for a law TO
compel landlords to make one
window in each room. to compel
good water supply for each family
and certain other reasonable re-
ouirements which are necessary for
decency. y law was passed in 1909
giving part of these things. and
hill was only defeated BY narrow
margin of one vote in the senate IN
1911. granting more reform in
tenement house matters.
When asked how this reform
would affect Plymouth. where there
were no bad tanements nor slum-
houses. Mrs Bacon said ii would
not affect our city at all until some
one attempted To build fiat with
out admitting light to some of the
rooms. Plymouth 5 interest must

of our larger cities. and. of course
of preventing anything like slum

larger and larger.

why should people build flats ?
The question of transportation does
not affect us. One can easily walk
from one side of our cities to the

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
The Fly Pest.


Recent issues of the Medical
journals have devoted much space 70
literature on the fly and its menace
to health, and vigorous campaign
has been started against the pest.
Once flies were considered merely
nuisance, but since science began
delvine successfully for causes thar
afflict mankind. it has been dis
covered that they were the carriers
of disease germs and primarily re-
sponsible for many of the feve-s
that are deadly during the summer
months. In the interest OF healtr.
it therefore becomes important to
devise means of eliminating flies or
reducing their number by as many
millions as possible.
Screens and due attention 10 lies
that manage to force entry to the
house afford protection. but the
greatest safeguarding of health II
general lies in preventing the pests
from breeding. When it is realize
