Gaddinq Boys.

We are reminded that there are
"gadding boys" as we'll as "gadding
girls" and the former makes the prob
lem as difficult as the latter. There
are hundreds of places in this town
that are ruinous to boys character,
and he is there by the score. The sit
uation promises low and ignorant
citizenship in the future. What can
be done to remedy the situation is
hard to say.
There are three things suggested as
necessary to the safety of the boy
better home government, stronger
school influence and real official
friendship for the boy. 1t seems idle
to suggest the latter if the two others
fail; but really it involves true So
luton of the trouble. The police Of
fetal knows where the boys are and
what they are doing, and he can inter
vene with his personal influence and
advice, in such way as to save many
a boy, if he only knew how and would
make the effort.
A police officer puts low estimate
on his duty if he thinks he accom-
plishes it all by arresting thief or
stopping fight. He has a far higher
duty, and that is as advisor and
guardian Of the boys; and he should

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.
Cor the week ending April IL, 1913.


Des Moines, Iowa.
The past week was unseasonably
cold and stormy. The average daily
temperature was about degrees be-
low, and the average rainfall nearly
two inches more than normal. Rain
or snow fell almost continuously from
Sunday night to Friday. Over the
northern half of the state the snowfall
was heavy on the 10th; the amounts
ranging from one inch in the southern
part of that section to twenty inches
in the northwestern counties. The
sunshine was nil until Saturday.
Freezing temperatures occurred on
one or two mornings over large part
of the state, but the only damage re-
sulting from the cold, wet weather
was in delaying the necessary work OF
an already belated season and in the
small loss of young pigs and chickens.
Unsheltered stock suffered during the
storm. The freezing temperatures did
no damage to fruit as the buds are
still dormant and in good condition,
as are also winter grains and grasses.
Compared with the average of past
years the season is now fully two
weeks late, but the soil is saturated
with moisture, and only warmth and
sunshine are needed to quicken the
growth of vegetation.-Geo. M. Chap
pei, Section Director.
