Harvard University has seriously contracted to enter upon an investiga- tion of what is technically described as ''psychic phenomena" but which our parents lever since the days of the Fox sisters called "Spiritualism." This, to my thinking. is one of the most startling innovations in pedagogy that several centuries have furnished. Indeed. it is an event that could only have followed the coming of the won dcrful era of telephones airships. "a = dium wireless messages and phono- graphs. II will not dc to treat this n- cident lightly or to cover it with ridi- cule.

 I frankly declare that the acceptance of $lO.o00 endowment fund for
 psychic research bv the time honored university at Cambridge encourages the hope that Francis l.. Wellman's fond wish to found a school of dra W poker at Harvard may be ultimately ! realized
 Seriously, however. comparatively few as are the believers in spiritualism the acceptance of this bcquest by so conservative a body as the trustees of Harvard brings the study of psychic phenomena to a stage never previous i ly attained in this country.

LABOR INCOME ON

One measure of farmers success
left to pay him for his own labor a fter
he has met all other expenses of run
ming his farm, including interest on his
investment. The legitimate running
expenses of the fa--l do not include
personal. living or acknowledgements.
This sum received by the farmer for
his own labor for the year is his labor
income.
Some farmers are making labor in

men and some are making good yearly
salaries. Others are receiving little
or nothing for their labor. Their farm
income is largely or entirely from the
interest on their investment.
Farmers who are not making Nabor.
incomes equal to the wages ola good
hired man would be better off finan-
cially if they would sell their farms,
put their money out at interest and
work for wages,
An example will make this plain.
Assume that q farmer has farm in
come of 81, 500, and that his farm in
vestment is $4,000. Interest on this
at six per cent is $l,20). The differ
ence between this amount and $500
or $500, represents his labor income.
If his net income is only l,20o. then
he has no labor income and is work.
ing for nothing.
Farmers should keep sufficient rec.
ords of their business to enable them
to determine their labor income. This
means taking an inventory at the
opening and closing of the year and
keeping a record of the expenses and
receipts.
If u farmer isn't making ordinary
wages, in addition to fair rate of
interest on his investment, he ought to,
know it and then take steps to learn
why and to correct the trouble.
On the other hand some farmers are
making more than good interest on
their investment and wages for the
time which they put in. If they are not
making as much money as they would
like to it may be because their invest
ment is too small and the time they
actually work too limited,

Hslpfal Hints on Bread Makine

Have materials all at hand
Sift three times, flour, salt and baking
powder, mix thoroughly.
Bake slowly enough to allow the bread
to rise before it crusts over, using COW
cred pan to keep tho surface soft. Re-
member that baking powder breads do
the greater part of the rising in the oven
and that baked bread can not rise. Let
it rise before baking.
K G Baking Powder is particularly
adapted to bread baking on account of
its long sustained action. It begins to
rise as soon as moisture is added, and
under the influence of q gentle heat. it
continues to give off its lcavening gas fer
fully half an hour. You cannot expect
the same results from old fashioned quick
acting baking powders. With K G Bak-
ing Powder you are assured Of q light,
palatable loaf.
Never, never .knead baking powder
bread as one does yeast bread. Turn
from the mixing bowl into the baking pan.
Follow mixing and baking directions
carefully. Remember failures are not
simply bad luck, but bad ways. There
is correct, scientific way for building
baked foods the same as for building
houses, and unless these rules are followed,
results cannot be perfect.
