Joan Sawyer Combines Phi
losophy With the Dance

Walter Kingsley has succeeded In
worming out Of Joan Sawyer some OF
the principles OF dancing which she is
putting into her new book on the sub
ject. Then he has consciencelessly given
them to a waiting world. and Miss Saw
yer sees the children Of her brain set
flying through tho world long before
they are cradled in the de luxe volume
in which the dancer intends to issue
the theories she holds on the dance.
A publishing firm has supplied Miss
Sawyer with couple of secretaries.
stenographers and other aids to rapid
composition. who arc following her and
John Jarrett on their tour through tho
Keith theatres.
Richard Wagner could not express
philosophy in music. but Miss Sawyer
thinks she is able to express it in the
dance. She writes:
"Every two generations the world
goes dancing mad. All through history
there have been crazes like this. The
Directorate in France was marked by
an absolute orgy of dancing. The latest
dancing delirium recorded reached its
height in 1894, and even at camp meet
ings they got up from the mourners'
bench and danced. The present ex-
element will subside; it must. for 1t is
approximating hysteria. People who
cheat on the fine things OF life and shirk
their natural duties seek no excuses
to escape the dancing floor A beautiful
art (perhaps the most beautiful We havoc
is being cheapened and coarsened by
overindulgence. Dancing should be
ceremonious. aesthetic and exouisitely
rhythmic. not higgledy piggledy affair
for the mere sake of moving over a floor
with some one Of the opposite sex.
Modern dancing is here to stay. This
Is the first time that a dance delirium
has been accompanied by natural rhythm.
and for that reason the present craze
will be followed by a reasonable and long
continued enjoyment Of the ballroom.
THE folk who hurt dancing are those
who dance immodestly. hate them.
Such people have the instincts Of swine.
1t behooves every one who has the in
terest OF modern dancing at heart to
frown upon anything suggestive or In
decent Do not be afraid to stand up
and declare yourself when some lecher
and his simpleton partner start immodest
dancing It's the only way. The cheap
who seek to detlle modern
da ncing are towards anyway. and a sharp
rebuke puts them where they belong
Again repeat that I regard sensuality
in dancing az a great evil which must be
stamped out.

tho mind and body. l mean BY that

MR.. PEPLE's WORKS.
Plays and Novels He Has written.

1t is not untimely to record at first
hand the method by which Edward
Peple, the author OF "A Pair Of Sixes,"
attained his first success as an author.
Mr.. Peple is a modest person OF whom
one has heard little except through his
novels or plays. He is a native OF
Richmond, Va, and his father. a noted
artist Of a generation ago. served in
tho Confederate navy. To an inter-
viewer he prefers to talk about his
father and how. when that worthy gen.
tleman was born, the King Of Sweden,
at that time known as Gustavus Adolf
phus H., was out OF compliment to his
grandfather the godfather OF his pa
rent. All this happened in Belgium
before the Peple family moved to Rich
mond.
Edward Peple had from early boy
hood the idea OF becoming a playwright.
During the four years he worked in a
bank in Richmond and the ensuing years
when he was employed as bookkeeper
by the American Bridge Company in
Now York he was still anxious to an
Gwer to the cry Of Author" He had
90 earn his living. so did not take up
his abode in q garnet. permit his hair

bread. He just plodded along keeping
books for the bridge company and plots

finished the manuscript OF 1.-THE Prince
Chap" 1t was then submitted to a

to await that managers pleasure for
. verdict Impatient over the delay.
which was entirely unlike the business
methods employed by the bridge COM
pany, young Mr.. Peple took a copy OF
his manuscript to the editor Of a large
publishing house, who in a very few
days sent for the author and accepted
II for immediate publication. Thus 1t
happened that the manager awoke one
day to find The Prince Chap" a popu-
lar novel. So he lost no time in send
ing for Mr.. Peple (who still held his
Job as q bookkeeper) and then the au-
thor received another contract for 1.-THE
Prince Chaps" dramatic rights. With
Cyril Scott in tho principal role the play
was ono Of the most successful COM
edies Of the theatre in this country
and served to place Mr.. Peple among
the playwrights. His work was in de-
mand. but unlike most authors he
refused to Grind out plays indiscrlm-
inately. preferring to wait until the
spirit moved him." This has resulted
most favorably. since he has to his
credit but few plays or novels. but
not one of them has so far failed. His
'The Spitfire" was produced by Charles

Indeed, too much Importance cannot
be attached to the sprayings for fruit
protection against insects and disease.
Often the whole crop is lost through
injury by Curculio, followed by Brown
Rot The Curculio winters in the
adult stage, appearing just as the foil
age develops on peaches and plums.
It feeds upon the foliage for little
while, then, the female beetle, laying
her eggs, does the principal injury to
the fruit by making a semi-circular
cut in which its eggs are laid. The
egg matches in q short time and the
small larva makes its way into the
center of the fruit and there develops.
The fruit rots and drops, the larva,
escaping into the ground and later do
veloptng into the adult beetle.
The beetle is controlled by spraying
with ArssAate Of Lead at the rate OF 2
pounds to 80 gallons OF water This
poison IL usually combined with tha
self-boiled lime sulphur wash, fungi
eide which will control Brown Rot.
The self-boiled lime sulphur Is made
by shaking pounds OF lime In sum
cient amount of water, and adding s
pounds of sulphur when the lime be
gins to slack. The mixture must be
kept stirred and the water added MS
needed, to keep pasty condition until
the lime is all slaked. The heat gen.
Grated by the shaking lime causes the
sulphur to mix physically with the lime
in a very fine state, but should not be
continued long enough to form much
of sulphide compound as shown BY
the mixture taking on yellow or brown
color The mixture IL then strained
into the spray barrel and the arsenate
of lead added.
CAUTION:-The Concentrated Lime
Sulphur Solution, such as is used in
dormant or early spring spraying
should not be used on peach or plum
foliage under any circumstances.
Where Brown Rot has previously ap-
peared, the first application of the
above mixture should be made just
after the fruit sets and before the
shucks are OH the peaches. a second
application two weeks later is very
necessary and a third treatment a
month before the fruit is ripe is very
desirable. Not only win this treat
ment prevent injury from Curculio and
Brown Rot, but also from Peach Seab
and other diseases.

HEAVY DRAFT HORSES COMMAND
TOP PRICES.
See That Your Colts Have Every
Chance TO Make Strong, Sturdy
Growth.
x. FL. RUFFNER.
Maryland Agricultural College.

The class of horses that pay our
farmers best to raise are drafters. a
number OF good draft stations are to
be found scattered over the State, but
the great complaint of the farmer is
that when he breeds his mares to a
large draft horse, the colts when grown
are very little larger than their dams.
In spite of this, If our colts were prop
erly fed and cared for from birth, we
should have within few generations
u class OF horses large enough to do our
farm work in more economical way
than the thousand-pound horse is do
ing 1t today.
II Is far better not to try to raise
draft colts if we do not feed them well.
If mare with foal at her side, is fed
plenty Of nutritious and milk produc.
ing foods, a foal may more than double
its weight the first month. During the
second month, the colt should be al
lowed access to a little grain, from
which time on until three years old the
colt use its grain feed to the very best
advantage. Fully half its growth
should be made in the first twelve
months Of its life. About half as much
gain Is made the second year as the
first and half as much again the third
year as the second. The time to think
then of putting weight on a draft
colt Is during every month OF the first
three years of its growth, not after il
has finished making an understood
frame.
The effects or constant or intermit
tent semi-starvation are to be seen in
every county i'm the State, yet we have
an abundance Of farm feeds In Maryland
from which suitable selection could
be made. We need to bear In mind
that it is not the corn in the bin, but
the corn in the colt that makes the rails
ing Of drcft horses profitable in con
nection with general farming.
"A good ration for growing colts is a
mixture Of so pounds of corn. 40 pounds
Of oats, and 10 pounds OF bran fed
with clover hay. to be fed at the rate
of one pound of the mixture per day
for every 100 pounds live weight
When the colt has good pasture. hay
is not necessary but tue grain should
be given daily If the colt is to make
its most successful growth.

LESSONS SHOULD BE FULL or

Our Country Children Should Be Edu
Gated In The Needs OF The
Life About Them.
J. &. METGZER,

J. E. METGZER,
Maryland Agricultural College.
The successful school is that one in
which the teaching is In terms of the
child life. Doubtless the decline Of the
rural school may be laid to the fact
that both the preparation of the teach
or and many of the textbooks used
are foreign to the common things Of
the farm home and life. Teachers who
have come to the rural schools and
tried to teach the things they were
taught in the city schools have found
their work a drudgery and the pupils
apparently dull and listless. Parents
and school officials excuse this def
cheney on the part Of teachers BY say
ing that they are from the city and
are not expected 70 be familiar with
country life.
What is needed and should be re-
quired of every rural teacher is either
experience or training which acQuaints
them with the facts about farm crops,
soils, farm animals, sanitation. and the
preparation of foods, and the best
methods Of presenting them In the
school. Our Agricultural College liz
helping to solve this problem through
it's summer training school for country
teachers, which opens for six weeks
session June the 22nd.
