normal function it. only limits and
restraints. It, seldom erects construc-
tive program. But the destruction or
curtailment of any system, involving
legitimate factors of social service, is
iustifiable only by the substitution of
something better This is what 50 many
well-meaning agitators fail to grasp.
Examples of this absurdity in legislation
are now in vogue in certain states in which
it is illegal to play games Of dominoes,
cards, chess, checkers, billiards or bowling
IN ones own home, even for his own arnuse-
ment with his own family and friends.
Speaking of Kansas law-makinp, for
instance, Gov. G. H. Hodges says:
The Instances of laundering and crud-
lty are by no means occasional. How
could it be otherwise? In the large
membership Of our State Legislature
there are usually a scant dozen men Of
superior ability and experience. And
yet, legislatures so composed add some
thing like twenty-five thousand pages
to our statute books every year. Last
year-1913-the Session laws Of Cali
fornia made book Of 1746 pages ex-
elusive of indexes; the Session laws Of
Colorado, 696 pages; Delaware, S46
pages; Indiana, 967 pages; Minnesota,
918 pages; Missouri, 1888; Nebraska, $40:
Kansas, 594. These conditions are not
unusual. About half the time Of each
succeeding legislature is taken up in I'M
doing what former legislatures have done.
The Kansas legislature sat 40 days.
Consequently an average of seven laws
passed both houses each day

WHY COUNTRY TOWNS DECLINE

Error usually consists in exaggerated
truth. The overstated case is a lie.
Public menace is often noble cause
distorted. For this reason the extremist
is usually dangerous man. Ostensibly
me seeks the salvation of society, but his
rabidness of method counteracts the
sincerity of his intentions. This is
illustrated in much of our present day
reforms and legislation. There is an alb
normal tendency just now to reduce the
rights and privileges of the individual
and to enlarge the function OF the state.
The effect is already becoming apparent
in the reduction of personality to Lilli-
putian dimensions and powers. This
abnormal legislative paternalism will
soon have us mollycoddled into inn
OF the making of laws, there is no
end, but there is a limit beyond which
they cease to be virtue. Unreasonable
legislation arouses only a spirit Of dis
respect and lawlessness. We are assured
by such authorities as Hume, Green,
Froude and Lacky that the early part
OF the 18th century was the most corrupt
periol in all English history. Strangely
enough, this was the same period when
more laws were placed on the statute
books than at any other equal time. But
$50 barren of results were these laws that
the Society for the Promotion of Public
Morals" a body of reformers whose
method and motto were legislation /,
died off for lack of funds. !.
In it's final analysis, legislation Is
destructive. In the discharge Of its

there are efforts to rise, but as a rule the
animal is unable to stand even should he
regain his feet, and it becomes necessary
to remove him to the stable on wagon
sled; or drag.
Horses attacked with azoturia should
be Immediately freed from the wagon
and harness and be provided with ample
straw or bedding to protect them from
injury Incidental to the struggle to
regain their feet. Especial care must be
taken to prevent beating of the head
upon the ground, and if the patient is
very restless strong man should place
his knees upon the animals neck and
hold the head firmly upon the ground.
Throw warm blanket over the PROSTATE
horse and arrange Immediately for his
removal to stable, where commodious
and well-bedded box stall should be pro-
vided, or, if such is not available, the barn
floor or comfortable shed can be
utilized.
In the meantime qualified veteri-
marian should be summoned, azoturia
being disease which requires skillful
treatment and careful nursing. Until
the horse is able to stand it will be
necessary to pass a catheter and draw
the urine at least twice a day, and also,
as an item of nursing, to turn the animal
from side to side at frequent intervals
in order to avoid development of bed
sores. Both treatment and nursing

Of the Juvenile Court in Los Angeles
there was made the following recommen-

Make every home social center.
Put billiard tables in the homes. Open
recreation rooms where they can be
properly supervised. Play with your

EXAMPLE OF AVERAGE FARMHOUSE.
barn and the economically constructed
buildings for stock are Of little value.
Happiness and contentment in the
family are as essential to efficient serv-
ice as improved tools and outbuildings.
Although the housewife spends. in
many cases, a lifetime in her ''work-
shop" the kitchen and the family
rooms, she is not. as a rule, capable Of
planning house in the highest degree
serviceable and comfortable without
assistance. Her help. however, is es-
sential to the farm architect. as the re-
suit of his plans most vitality concerns
her.
In 1910 a western farm paper, at the
suggestion of the department of agri-
culture. conducted competition for
farmhouse plans. About ego plans of
! farmhouses were submitted. not one of
which was fully satisfactory. The lar
ger number insisted on some particu-
lar pet notion and emphasized single
| feature to the neglect of other impor-
| tant ones. The men and women who
! familiarize themselves with the work
to be done and then apply themselves
to the single task of devising means
are the ones who. with the cooperation
of the farmers and their wives. can
best handle the farmhouse problem.
One of the most important details
regarding the average American farm
house is that it must be inexpensive.
The average annual net income Of
farmer today after deducting per
cent interest on his investment is less
than $500. This does not mean that
the houses may not be attractive.
They may, if intelligently planned with
the help of vines, shrubs and trees. be-
come the prettiest spots In the land
scape, and more beautiful and mex
pensive than the crowded city houses.
After economy in the construction of
the building and in the house work has
been attained, attention will be given
to developing beauty. Simplicity in
line and good proportions are meant
by the use of this word beauty, and not
so called applied Ornaments" This
simplicity is entirely in keeping with
general plan of economy.
Economy, however, is not a synonym
for cheapness. Double strength glass
may even be more economical in a
tenant house than single strength. not
withstanding it's greater first cost. A
kitchen sink may be paying invest
ment, although it excludes bay win
dow. or fireplace, which has been the
pet notion of the housewife. Screened
in kitchen porches, sleeping porches.
double or triple windows and kitchen
conveniences are fine economical fea-
lures which even the smallest house
plans may well consider.

ORCHARD OCCASIONALS.

An Usage range hedge Is an ideal
breeding place for San Jose scale.
Pears are treated in much the same
manner as apples.
Judicious pruning is one of the Sc
crets in growing good grapes.
Pears are adapted to a clay soil.
peaches to sandy soil, while apples
do best on light loamy soil.
If you have a poor seeding pear or
apple tree it may be entirely made
over by top grating.
The young trees should be banked
with earth, which will keep water
from settling about them.
An orchard will live longer, bear bet
ter and be more profitable BY being
well cultivated and enriched.
Keep the orchard land in good filth.
The trees can be set az soon as the
frost leaves the ground.

Department of Agriculture Makes .
Plea For Economical Buildings.
The Importance to the farmer of hav-
ing an economical farmhouse has been
emphasized by the farm architect of
the department Of agriculture, who
states that the mental and physical fit
ness Of the laborers both within the
house and in the fields is vitality affect
ed by the building that affords the
family shelter. The average American
farmhouse has failed to share in the
improvements that are every day be-
ing made in agricultural conditions
and, according to the architect. is a re-
buke to our boosted civilization. Rel
atively, he says. the housewife Of a
century ago, with her fireplace cooking
and log cabin. was better provided for
than is the housewife today.
The most important building on a
farm is the home. The health, comfort
and happiness of the family are de-
pendent upon its construction and
equipment, and unless these matters
are looked after the sanitary dairy
