Willow Switches Given Away.

The small boy whose father has
time to apply the switch should be.
ware with little more than his usual
caution. The United States govern
ment Is giving away willow switches.
The department Of agriculture has
an experiment farm at Arlington. Va,
and some parts of 1t were found to be
too wet for raising ordinary crops.
Therefore the experts set willows out
In the wet places. and there has been
so smart a growth that the govern
ment wants to get rid Of the willow
switches. II offers to give them away
under the guise Of willow cuttings to
make baskets or bottom chairs, but no

that only one hundred Of the cuttings
will be given to one person.-Worces.
