10 Learn the Best Way
to Farm

The United States government
is going into the magazine pub
lishing business for the benefit
of the farmers. This is the an
nouncement made today by the de
partment Of agriculture, which
adds that the first issue of the
magazine will be out this month

II gularly at monthly intervals.
The publication will be devoted
principally to detailed review Of
crop conditions nationally and by
states.
"This information will be pre-
pared in purely popular way"
Assistant Secretary Galloway de-
clared, with a view to enabling
the farmer to determine at a
glance just what plant-crop and
animal crop conditions are pre-
wailing in his own state as COM
pared with other individual states
and the country at large and i'm
portant foreign producing ares"
It is the departments purpose
to make the periodical, which
will bear the title Of ".The Agri
cultural Outlook, !" magazine of
from 18 to 30 pages. It will
deal not alone with the production
and condition of crops, but will
instruct the farmer as to market
ing his wares.

The president of the Mississip-
pi Normal College is reported
to have said recently that the
average woman doing her own
work in a house without modern
water-supply lifts a ton of wa
ter every day. This is the way
he figures it out: A bucket of
water weights twenty pounds. It
is lifted from the we'll, carried to
the kitchen, poured out there for
various Uses and emptied out Of
doors. He counts the number of
times it is lifted on the average
at six times. Three meals a day
calls for ten bucketfus, which
lifted six times amount to 1000
pounds Of lifting. Add the water
for washing, mopping, bathing
and drinking, and the ton is
easily accounted for.
This assumed we'll supply at
the door. But it is often rods
away from the door. 1t is often
down hill to a we'll or spring.
In such cases the water-suppiy
rests much more heavily on the
woman than would the ton of
hay on the man.
The water-supply in the house
Is the best first step toward inn
proved conditions for the house
which does not possess it. Many
good systems are available and
at reasonable prices-say from
two hundred to three hundred
dollars for an ordinary isolated
farm house.
The outdoor water supply is
the chief of all woman-killers and
