College Education Falls to Improve
Vocabulary Of Women, Says
Writer.

Surely there must be something
the matter with a vocabulary of our
young people, says Life, when they
have to depend 80 exclusively upon
such words as "Surep DANDY
and "Wonderfulp to express their
principal emotions. What is most
extraordinary about all this is that
the vocabulary of young women does
not seem to be improved by college
career. One would think that it
would be quite impossible to study
Latin and French and German, lit
erature and philosophy for number
Of years (even though studied in the
most superficial manner) without
acquiring enough variety of words to
carry one through any common expe-
rience. The method of studying
English in our schools is entire.

SYRIA GIVES US LlcoRlCE
With the Exception Of the Damascus
Output, the Whole Trade 10 In
Hands of One Firm.

Very few people, says Wide World
Magazine, have any idea where the
familiar licorice root comes from. As
a matter of fact, the bulk of it halls
from Syria. Here it is gathered and
piled into great stacks, where it re-
mains until it is thoroughly dry. 1t
IS then taken to the factory to under
20 certain processes. The finished
product is used for fiavoring confec-
tionery and beer, as well as entering
into the makeup of many kinds of
tobacco. Some idea of the extent OF
the industry may be gathered when
it is stated that, on an average, 5000
tons of dry licorice root is shipped
from Aleppo annually, while Bagdad
yields another 5000 tons, Antioch
1000, and Damascus 500 tons. With
the exception of the Damascus out.
put, the whole trade is in the hand:
of a single firm.

HEALTH CONTEST AT FAIR
VIII Show What Perfect Blue Grass
Baby Should Be Like.

A new feature announced for the
coming Kentucky State Fair is the
baby health contest, and already 1t
nas attracted great deaf of atten.
con. This contest is modelled after
those which have been so successful
IN other states, notably Iowa. The
contest in this state was first inaugu.
.ated in 1911 by the Iowa branch OF the
.Iational Congress III Mothers, with
mrs. Mary p. Watts in charge. Mrs.
watts was superintendent and was as
sisted by the following judges:
Or. Margaret V. Carl, Waterloo;
Dr. V. K. Powell, Red Oak: DR. Agnes
..lchelberger, Sioux City; Dr. Kate
tiarpel, Boone; Dr.. Lenna Meanes. Des
..oines; DR.. Sophie Hinze, Scott, Des
homes; Miss Katherine Earhart, Des
Moines; Miss Seharr, Des Moines.
The Kentucky Federation of Won
ems clubs has been asked to cooper
ate with the Kentucky State Fair and
the chairman OF their health depart
ment, Mrs. Lafen Riker, associated
with Mrs. George Grant and Mrs. Her
bert Ottenheinler Of the health COM
mittee, will act in an advisory ca
pacity.
Uniformity is absolutely essential in
the examination and marking OF the
children in order TO secure any results
Cf value In a nationwide movement
The score card, so LONG and univers-
ally used, is such basis for uniformi-
ty that its exclusive use is very import
ant in this work and il has according
~ been adopted by Kentucky.
The prizes will be OF comparatively
small amount or value. To offer valu-
ale prizes, or IN permit such offers by
newspaper, baby food manufacturers,
photographers or others interested In
advertising themselves or their bust
hess, would excite the cupidity of par
ents, cause scramble for gain in
stead of a search for knowledge, ana
tndanger and tend to commercialize
he whole movement.
As these contests promise TO be a
great worldwide movement and pro
ductive of great good to humanity.
they must not be allowed to become
special shows. where professional ba-
bies OF abnormal development may
compete for large prizes for the ben
EFT OF some advertising or gainful
scheme.

Cover Crops.

Of a clay formation. These two
conditions present most favora-
BILE combination for washing and
in nearly every part Of the State
one becomes impressed with the
terrible damage done annually by
the Outlying of sloping arers caus
ed by heavy rains. Corn is Ken
tucky's favorite crop, especially
from the standpoint of area plant
ed, and this crop after the thor
ough loosening of the soil from
cultivation during the summer
leaves the ground in perfect condi-
ton for washing and subsequent
outlying. The most effective way
of preventing this great damage
to our farms is by never leaving
these cultivated areas open to the
heavy rains of fall and winter, this
being prevented by providing
some growing crop to cover the
ground during these seasons.
The plant most in favor as a
cover crop in this State is rye.
This is because of the relative
cheapness of seed, the lateness at
which rye can be sown, the COM
parative certainty of getting
stand, its degree immunity to win
ter freezing, and'the pasture which
the crop furnishes before blowing
under preparatory to the next
years crop.
Rye as cover crop may be
sown in the corn field any time
from September fifteenth to Octo-
Der fifteenth, the earlier seeding
often furnishing good late fall and
winter pasture. 1t would be an
excellent practice if each farmer
would annually SOW enough rye as
a regular crop to provide sufficient
seed for planting all areas on the
farm which otherwise would be
left naked during the winter.
Doubtless the only short coming
of rye as a cover crop is that it
does not feed upon nitrogen taken
directly from the air and hence
adds more of this valuable element
of plant food to the soil. We must
Hook to the so-called leguminous
plants to perform this function.
Hairy, or winter vetch perhaps
pest supplements this need, and
can be successfully grown with
rye by reducing the quantity of
rye seed and sowing during Sep
tember, preferably not later than
The fifteenth of that month. Rye
md vetch after mixing can be
sown from the grain drill, in which
case from two to three pecks of
rye and about twenty pound of
vetch per ecre should be. used.
Winter vetch has a slim stem,
leaflets somewhat resembling those
of alfalfa in shape, and blue
lustering blossom which appear
,hortly before the ripening of the
rye. Its reclining nature makes the
rye of great benefit in it's support
for with its tendrils the vetch
Limbs nearly to the full height OF
he rye. The feeding value of
retch is excellent and more Ken
ucky farmers should test its
merit as a cover crop, with rye.
