n A RURAL SCHOOLS
WILL SOMETIME BE

According to the current issue
of Farm and Fireside E. G. Clax-
ton, United States commissioner
of education, has aligned him
self with those who have a
vision of what rural schools must
sometime be. Following is Mr..
Claxton's idea:
Every rural school will one
day have attached to it a farm
of twenty or thirty acres pro-
vided with a house for the teach
er and the, teachers family.
This farm will be a kind Of mod
ell farm, if properly operated by
the teacher, and a center of the
agricultural and social life of the
district. And, he might add,
when that time comes the exam
ination of the teacher for his
certificate may safely be con-
fined to his ability to manage
this farm and make it produce.

Many people know the danger
of calomel, yet they take it be-
cause they know of nothing bet

of calomel, because they do not
understand what a dangerous

hurt them, they believe it never
will.
No one needs to take danger
GUS calomel (which is just an
other form of mercury.
Shute's Drug Store sells bod

takes the place of calomel.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleas

that livens up the liver without
causing any restriction of habit
or diet. 1t has none of the
bad after effects of calomel and
is safe for children as well as
groWn-ups.
You don't run a single risk

LEGATION, writes an interesting
article in which he shows thai
large farms are more profitable
than small ones in proportion te
the dollars invested. He says
that after two or three years OF
investigation the Government
has published a bulletin present.
ing the conclusions of a survey
of representive farms in Indiana,
Illinois and Iowa, wherein is
shown who makes the money
farming and how, also who loses
it and why. Following is an ex-
tract giving some of the facts
contained in the Governments
reports:
In the first place, it seems to
have discovered that most of it
is made by the landlord, and that
chiefly out of the increase in land
values. The farmer gets poor
wages for his work. In a start
lingly large proportion of the
cases he gets no wages at all, af-
ter allowance is made for inter-
est on investment and cost of
health. The man on the small
farm makes less wages than the
man on the bigger farm because
it costs more for what the
efficiency experts might call over
head operating costs on a small
than on a large farm. If you
own enough land to makea
good sized economic farming
unit, rent some and farm it along
with what you own. If you
get it, sell what you have
and go where you can buy enough
or rent enough, to make the
proper unit.
The Department figures show
that as the size of the farm in

FACTS ABOUT

PUMPKINS
In the current issue of Farm
and Fireside appears an article
entitled In Defense of the
Pumpkin" The following facts
about pumpkins and the uses te
which they can be put are taken
from the article:
Pumpkins are largely com,
posed Of water, and SO some
agricultural writer's have de
clared that pumpkins have little
value as stock food. The same
objection might be made against
grass, which everybody knows
is the best food in the world for
farm live stock. Pumpkins, in
my experience, are as valuable
to feed to cows and steers as
turnips, r~utabagas, and beets.
Horses are fond of pumpkins
and will eat them without any
cutting up. They are healthful
for horses that are kept on dry
feed when fed in moderation.
Hogs will eat pumpkins, and
they are cheap and wholesome
feed for them when fed in con-
nection with grain. We cut the
pumpkins into small pieces which
can be eaten easily, and put them
into the trough instead Of break
ing them I'D and throwing them
into the pen. We find it pays
well for the time spent in cut
ting. The pumpkins are fed in
the morning when appetites are
keen, and before the grain is
given"
THE WAGES THAT M
GET
In the current issue of Farm
and Fireside, the national farm
paper published at Springfield,
Ohio. Judson C. Welliver, Wash
ington correspondent of that pub
LEGATION, writes a most interest
ing article in which he publishes
many facts recently collected by
the United States Government in
the course of an investigation Of
700 farms in Indiana, Illinois an
Iowa. On the question of the
wages that the farmer earns Mr..
Welliver reports:
THE most interesting compu-
made by the experts from
these 700 farms was
that concerned with the wages
the farmer gets. The hired man
knows what his wage is;
the farmer generally hasn't an
idea. Well, the statistics show
that just about one third of the
managing their own
farms get less than no wages at
all.
THE group of the men who
earned the largest incomes as
compensation for their manage
ment Of their farms are shown
TO have been in almost or quite
al cases livestock farmers.
In general, the livestock
farmer improves his land most;
and the man who sells his crops
it least, and commonly
may be said to injure it most"

GERARD SAVED GIRL
OF BRITISH NOBLEMAN
With Consul, He Advanced $4,000.
Saving Isabel Portman from
German Debtors Prison.

London. De. How Ambassador
Gerard and T. St. John Gaffney. consul
general at Munich. saved the daughter Of
q British peer from prison. has been
revealed here through the return OF the
Hon Mary Isabel Purtman to the home
Of her father. VisCount Portman.
Miss PoTtman was about to be in
CarCerated beCHus, sh- was unable %
pay the contractors who built magnifi-
cent villa for her near Munich. and sh"
only escaped because first Mr.. Gaffney
and then Mr.. Gerard deposited 5000 in
cash with tn, Bavarian authorities. The
money came from their own pockets. Ot
, curse.
Mr.. Ganncy also is in England now.
and will obtain from Lord PoTtman GER
tain securities for 5000 TO carry back
to Mr.. Gerard. The securities will b.
deposited until the war is over. because
Lord POrtman would not be allowed 10
pay money to an alien enemy now.
Miss Portman had ben a resident Of
Munich for seven years. She is a very
talented violinist. and her love for music
was responsible for her residence in
Germanys musical center. Several
months before the war began she signed
contracts for the construction Of
country house at Garmisch. near Munich.
1t was to cost $4,000. At the outbreak
Of the war she had paid half the amount
due and was quite ready To pay the re-
mainder, her only desire then being TO
get out OF Germany. but she could not
get the money from her bank. owing to
the moratorium. and her father was un-
able to send tha amount TO her because
under the act forDiddinS trading with the
enemy he was not allowed To- settle with
the German contractors.
