UNCLE SAM KEEPING
GIRLS ON The FARM
Tomato Clubs Bring Good In
comes TO the Members.

Washington.-Guided by a southern
school teacher, Uncle Sam is turning
his attention to keeping some of his
country nieces happy on the farm in
stead Of letting them join the workers
in the cities. In five southern states
under the direction of the department
Of agriculture, schoolgirls are learning
how to turn tomatoes and snap beans
into money.
Miss Mary Cromer of Aiken, S. c.,
began the girls canning clubs with
fOrty-siX of her own pupils. She had
heard of the boys corn clubs and saw
no reason why the girls should not
make little money too. SO one spring
she encouraged forty-siX girls to plant
little tomato patches.
All summer she worked with them
showing them how to hoe and cult
vate. Along toward harvest time the
neighboring station of the farm demon
stration service heard about what she
was doing and sent a canning expert
to Aiken to show the girls what to do
with their product. One girl got 80
cans from her patch, which gave her n
profit at the rate of S400 an acre Even
Jerry Moore, the boy who won the
corn prize, had cleared only $40 an
acre. Miss Cromer was given a place
in the department of agriculture and
has organized tomato clubs in five
states.
The clubs are formed very early in
the spring before planting time, and
the demonstrator who travels about
tells the girls how to have their land
prepared. The farms are only one
tenth Of an acre now. that being sup
posed to be all that one girl can well
take care of. Usually the fathers do
the plowing, but they are paid for their
time and the fertilizer they use, just
as an outsider would be. For the cul-
tivating the girls allow themselves 10
cents an hour. They learn to enjoy the
work.
The girls are taught to put up wild
and garden berries in glass. In the
fall, when the harvest is all in tin or
glass, the demonstration visits each
home, weighs each can and marks its
weight upon the outside. The little
gardener adds her name and address
and the can is sent straight to some
body's table at 10 cents for the tin
cans of vegetables and 12 for glass
jars of preserves. If the purchaser is
dissatisfied she notifies the department,
md the girl is directed to send anoth-
er can. If there are continued com
plants of her products it is assumed |
hat she is not following directions
md she is dropped from the clubs.

A SUCCESSFUL HUNTER.

In Six Months Has Killed Panthers,
Wildcats and Five Bears.
Port oxford, Ore.-Within six months
g. L. White Of this place has proved
himself a successful hunter of preda-
tory animals, and his dogs have freed
and he has killed five bears, five pan
theirs and a goodly number of wildcats.
He recently spent several days up on
Skies river and killed a female panther
that had destroyed many sheep and
deer In that locality. She had often
been run with dogs and had learned to
elude them by springing from tree to
tree and from stump to log, then dodg-
ing and running in a different direc-
ton.
Before the big cat was killed several
photographs were taken as it was
snarling and showing its teeth at the
hunters.

GENERAL VILLAS LATEST PICTURE. MADE
FOLLOWING BATTLE AT sALTILLo.
ministration. He is known to have dis
tributed his plunder to the poor Of his
district
Villa is uneducated but not ignorant,
unless the record he has made is all a
dream.
When Madero camped his rebel army
before Juarez he was Immediately
| joined by villa, who had hastily
gathered more than 500 men and
marched them overland. His military
ability was in evidence even then,
as on his march he had made it a
point to acquire a number Of 30-40
rifles, and he had the only squad in
the entire army capable Of fighting his
enemies on equal terms with the
Mauser rifles.
Villa gave Madero some trouble be-
cause of his desire to go right into
Juarez and fight it out, and he finally
did that very thing against the wishes
of his more timid chief. When Madero
saved the life Of General Navarro from
Villa and Orozco by a shrewd trick
the latter became deeply offended but
Villa looked upon the move as legiti-
mate and liked Madero all the more
for it.
Madero pardoned Villa for all past
offenses and put him in his army when
he assumed the presidency. Huerta
was Villas commander. and that officer
ordered Villa shot for some alleged
offense. Madero ordered Villa to the
penitentiary near Mexico City and
gave the oportunity Of escaping. While
confined Villa learned to read and
write little. Here are some of his
achievements as his friends look at
them:
He has drilled his army and provided
for it through his own efforts until it is
admitted that he has the best drilled and
equipped force in Mexico.
He has captured more than one-half
the total artillery in Mexico and has
formed an efficient artillery division.
He buys hay and grain and ships it to
his cavalry and keeps that arm Of serv
fee in a more efficient condition than do
the federals
He has the best hospital corps in Mex
leo and gives better care to his wounded |
than does the regular army.
He has a working commssary depart
ment which has managed to keep his
troops well supplied and furnished them
with the necessary ammunition even
when it had to be smuggled across from /
the American side.
He has established order in every town /
captured, always closing the saloons and /
keeping them closed as long as his army /
occupies the place. He does not use /
liquor and says the saloons cause all the
trouble commanders have with their men

been entertained of his losing his mind ,
but his taking of his life came as quite a
shock TO the little village.

ness and viciousness of the boys.
1--WE found that more than 90 per
cent of the boys-and remember they
are all under fifteen years of age
came to us with bad teeth. For years
these boys have been unable to chew
their food properly. They have acquired
the habit of boiling everything they
put into their mouths. The natural
consequence has been multiplication
of stomach and intestinal disorders
The boys were dragged down in a
physical manner and really through no
fault of their own became physical de-
generates and moral deinquents."
Mr.. EIilles said the first investigation
dealt with ga boys. of whom fifty-two,
a little more than per cent, were free
from some kind of physical abnormal
ity. The examinations proved that
most of the troubles from which the
boys suffered came from the teeth.
Immediately upon admission to the
Children's Village" he continued, "the
boy Is sent to the dentist, who makes Il
searching examination of his teeth. All
possible repairs are made, hopelessly
decayed teeth are extracted, those less
seriously diseased are filed and crown
ed. Finally there is a thorough clean
ing of the teeth Then the boy is sent
to his room with toothbrush and with
paste. He experiences so much relief
and experiences it so quickly that al
hn hory 1g srIa1 fO rriV 10
teeth the necessary attention.
Regularly every six months each
boy in the village visits the dentist
Never again as long as he is with us is
he permitted to suffer because his
teeth lack attention.
by the time the boy has completed
his two years in the Children's Village
that is the average length Of his stay
he has approached the average for
his years in size and in weight Every
spring the village sends a squad of
boys into the west where amid new
surroundings and forgetting the stigma
Of the past they begin a useful life in
the open country. Remembering that
about 81 per cent Of the boys are sub
normal when they come to us, that
they are moral delinquents, physical
degenerates and mental detectives, it
is thorough demonstration, | believe,
that we are right when we say that
the dentist Is the greatest influence for
good known to us, that more than 80
per cent of our boys make good and
are successful after they leave us"
