There Is an erroneous idea, very
generally held, that paper money is
printed on paper manufactured by a
secret process which is carefully
guarded from the public. The truth
is that almost any paper house coulo

prohibited by law from doing so. The

WOMEN DOING FARM WORK.
Women at Work i'm the Fields of
Europe Harvesting the Crops.

One Of the features of the news
from Europe is the way in which
the women of the warning countries
have turned out in the fields to Gull
tivate and harvest the crops, while
the men are fighting. The sight of
women doing teamwork in this coun-
try was once considered incongru-
Gus and primitive. In Europe it
has always been common The ma
jority of the aliens who do servants
work in this country no doubt used
to hoe and rake and NOV in the old
country.
Of recent years, as foreign labor
has come to the United States, it is
not so unusual to see women doing
teamwork. In many districts, as
you go along a country road, you
observe a baby carriage drawn up
by the side of the way. in sight of
the mother, who is laboriously help
ing her husband found the family
fortunes.
Also many women of American
descent have been learning during
the past few years that there is an
opening for them in many depart
ments of farm work. Market and
fruit gardening are such chances.
The high price of meat has Great
ed an enormously increased demand
for farm vegetables and kindred pro-
ducts. &s
Many a school teacher who has
left the farm to work for $500 a
year in some high cost of living
town, would have done better to
start little enterprise of raising
vegetables or fruits in her own back
yard. With the labor of man
available for lifting heavy weights,
there is nothing in farm work that
is not easily within the capacities of
women. 1t is probably true that
the average farmer depends very
much for his business success on
his wife's judgment.
If women go into farming more,
they will be turning from callings
that are overcrowded, into one in
which the whole world is crying for
the product. 1t always pays to work
in a field where the demand exceeds
the supply. The agricultural schools
are reporting this fall that many
women are taking their courses of
study. Perhaps the sight of the
millions of Europe's women, who
are finishing this years harvest,
may inspire others in this country
to choose this opening.

his wife and friends here for about
a month. He left DEBORAH a month
ago, going from here to Preston, to
transact business, and since then no
trace of him has been found. Some
of his friends think he may have
met with foul play, as he was sup
poed to carry quite sum of money
on his person. 1t has been reported
that his grip was found at Preston,
but all traces of him was lost. Mr..
