Learn Community Pride
With Agricultural Education

manufacturers and tradesmen take
such pains to please this aesthetic
sense of their patrons, why should
not the farmer, in a measure at least,
try to follow their example?
Professor Warren, in his Elements
of Agriculture, speaks of two farm
communities lying not far apart that
were practical illustrations of this
very thing we have in mind. In one
community the young men, and older
ones, too, we presume, were bent on
horse-racing and the gambling that
usually accompanies such sport, LIQUOR
drinking, Sabbath breaking, and SIM
liar pursuits of an unlawful nature;
in the other community these things
were conspicuously absent, an air of
decency prevailed that showed itself
in the character Of the schools and
churches and in the neat appearance
of the fields and homes along the way.
The difference was striking. But the
most remarkable thing about it was,
that though an expert could hardly
see any difference between the two
in the general character of the soil,
yet the farms of the latter commun-
ity had an appraisement value of
fifty dollars more per acre.
Some one says that a good farm is
where a good farmer lives. True;
and a good farmer is hardly satisfied
unless the farm gives evidence of its
value in its outward appearance. Of
two farms essentially similar in every
respect and lying side by side, the
one that has its buildings neatly
painted will, in far the majority of
cases, sell for the most money. And
if both farms present AN outward ap-
pearance of thrift and good taste the
sale value of each is correspondingly
increased.
The community pride that shows it
self in those things of taste that make
for an appreciation of dignity and
decency in our mode of living should
be taught in all our schools. 1t is
the starting point, the foundation
upon which the structure of better
rural conditions can be most surely
and securely built. 1t is form of
pride that classes itself under the
head of common self-respect, which
Theodore Roosevelt declares is the
greatest of all lessons to be learned
Where self-respect is wanting there
is always lacking much else that
makes life enjoyable and really worth
living. What an opportunity every
farmer has, with all the helps of ma
ture at his command, to delight him
self in the work of the world and add
to it's common welfare and enjoyment.

is not in every instance fully changed.
A gentle disposition in a cow illus
trates the remark of some educator
who declared that the way to train
a child was to begin with his grand
father, for while kindness to the in
dividual cow from it's calfhood up
may and does do wonders, yet it is
not possible to entirely overcome the
disposition of the cow herself.
This question is one that should not
be lost sight of in deciding whether
to buy or raise cows. If we buy them
we have to put up with whatever sort
of disposition they happen to have
but if we raise our own cows for two
or three generations, it is possible ia
have those possessing a good DISPOSE
ton to start with as calves and then
with proper training they will make
far better cows than we are apt to
get when we buy them.
Charlevoix county herald., 1913-12-20
Raise the Feed on the Farm.

We have often heard farmers give
as reason for their not going into
the dairy business further, the state
ment that they didn't want to buy
bran and oil meal in addition to feed
ing the cows a good share of the
grain they were able to raise. They
depend upon selling about so many
bushels of grain when fall comes and
they can't afford to let the cows eat
it up. They seem to think that they
must raise less grain in order to have
time to take care of the cows and that
the cows are going to eat up what
little grain they can raise. Then too,
they have visions of buying load after
load of bran and oil meal.
In the first place it is not necessary
to let a reasonable number of cows
prevent one from raising just as
much grain as before. 1t is reason
able, however, to expect that more
grain will be raised on the same num-
Der of acres. Then too, by having the
cows drop their calves late in the fall
it is possible to do the heavy part of
the years dairy work at a season
when no work can be done in the
fields. When the work of harvesting
and handling the grain products is
heaviest, the work of looking after
the cows can be made lightest.
Then again it is possible to raise
such a variety of farm-grown prod
ucts that it is unnecessary to buy any
mill feed at all. Glover or alfalfa for
part of the rough feed will allow the
feeding of farm grown grains such as
corn, oats and barley, with excellent
results. An ordinary good COW will
return So worth Of milk for every 81
worth of grain she eats and the mar
ket is right on the farm Instead of
hauling the grain to town it can be
ground and fed TO the good dairy COW
and the cream can be hauled to town
in the top buggy or automobile and
shipped with less trouble and greater
profit to the farmer. Of course the
number of cows to be kept depends
upon how much available help there
is on the farm, but we believe it is
safe to say that the majority of farm
ers who are now giving little thought
to the production of cream could keep
more cows than they are keeping with
greater profit and with little more
work

The Michigan Union.

The Michigan Union, with its pres
ent membership of 2,751, is the
largest student union in the country.
1t is estimated that $4,000 persons
were entertained at the 400 luncheons,
dinners, "gettogethers," "loungers,
etc. last year.
The Union Club House was for
mally opened on November II, 1907.
The first years membership list con-
tanned 655 names. In 1912 a dance
hall was added and was first used as
a dining room during the seventy
fifth anniversary celebration. Since
the erection of this hall, more than
10000 people have danced in it.
Besides affording a common meet
ing place for students and members
of the faculty, the Union presents the
annual student opera, has charge of
the annual football smoker, supports
employment bureaus, provides rooms
for class and society dinners, and
fosters traditions and institutions that
belong to the student body as a
whole. 1t has outgrown its present
quarters, however, and is devoting it's
every energy to the raising of funds
with which TO build and equip new

bloom that there was any great gain
made in this direction. 1t might be
Of interest to know about some of the
experiments that have been made
along this line of the benefit the bees
are to fruit blossoms. Of course you
know that the agency the bees have
in helping the fruit is in fertilizing
it by carrying pollen from one bios
som to the other. This is done auto
matically as the bees fitting from one
blossom to another soon become COW
cred with this fine pollen dust and it
is thus carried from blossom to bios
som, which is practically the only
way they can become fortified. Did
you ever notice that in years when
there was a strong wind from any
one direction through the fruit bloom
that there will usually not be much
fruit on the side Oh the tree next to
where the wind came from? The rea-
son of this is plain for bees will al
ways work on the side Of the tree
where they are protected from the
wind most and if the winds hang pref
ty nearly all the time in one direction
and strong enough to bother the bees
the blossoms on that side will not be
very well fortified.

Fruit blossoms and Spraying.

Nearly every spring we get nice
little flow of honey from the blossoms
of the fruit trees, and this honey is
(when we are able 70 get it in it's
purity, as fine a honey as there is.
The trouble is we very seldom get
enough of it that we can get any of it
deposited in the surplus apartments.
For years after orchardists began to
spray their trees though, great deal
of trouble was experienced from bees
becoming poisoned by the poisonous
liquids used in spraying. Thousands
of colonies of bees were destroyed in
this way before they found out what
the trouble was, and then many fruit
growers were unwilling to stop spray
ing while the trees were in bloom
and for a while it seemed that this
was to become a serious menace to
the business. Then somebody began
TO spread the news that except for
these sane bees which they were so
ruthlessly destroying the fruit grow
ers would be unable to raise any fruit
at all, and then they commenced to
sit up and take notice. But it was
not until the different states began
to pass laws to prohibit them from
spraying while the trees were in

THIRD ARTICLE.

Agricultural education has centured
about the desire to get greater yields
of farm produce. The problem of in
creasing and maintaining the fertility
of the soil and of developing better
grades of fruits, vegetables, and
grains, has been taking its share of
attention somewhat at the expense of
other things upon which the value of
the farm largely depends.
Most boys who are taking courses
in agriculture are doing so with the
thought of some day owning farms
/ themselves. 1t is most probable, too,

A plan to establish in Ann Arbor

the purpose of employing student
labor was presented to the board of

the Detroit Fireless Stove Company.
This proposal came as the result Of
the activity of the Ann Arbor Civic
Association in the interests Of work
ing students. If the plan is carried
out, students will be allowed to ar
range a schedule Of working hours
that can be adapted in individual
