BEST USE OF GREAT WEALTH

A few years ago a gift Of s1.oOO.OOo
for any benevolent object was a sur
prising and epoch-making event A
great advance In ideas OF beneyolence
and the sense OF responsibility for the
use Of wealth IL marked when II Is
found that during the year 1913 there
we're 2s persons In the United States
who gave 81 900 900 or more to benevo-
lent purposes.

few would be able to tell on What OBJ
jects the majority OF these gifts were
bestowed. so common have great gifts
to benevolent purposes become.
The amount in the aggregate OF
gifts during the year. as far as record
ed. was s3O2. 100000. OF this. $780,
0OO. 900 was for education. and sos ,0eO.-
900 for religious and charitable pur-
poses, including missions.
The largest beneficiary was the Met

the museum may receive from the
S50.0OO.0OO collection OF J. Pierpont

Probably the next largest beneficiary
OF the year is the foundation for char.

The blame, then. for the boy who
goes wrong does not rest with the
boy himself, or yet with his remote

a livelier appreciation OF the RESPONSE

Gambling Due 70 Ennul.

Wherever ennui is to be fought,
there is gambling In the Journal OF
Religious Psychology Mr.. Albert ".
Gilbertson notes that winter gambling
is one OF the favorite amusements OF
the Eskimo. and he quotes the follow
ing statement on the passionate gam
blers" among the Alaskan natives of
the Ungava district, described by
Holmberg:
Gambling is carried on to such a
degree among both sexes that even
their own lives are staked upon the
issue of game. The winner often
obtains the wife OF his opponent. and
holds her until some tempting offer is
made for her return. The only article
they possess is frequently wagered.
and when they lose they are greeted
with derision."

DEEP FLOWING IS ESSENTIAL
Equally Necessary 10 Use Of Some I'm
element to Pack Furrow Slice
Firmly Against subsoii.

In all dry farming countries deep
plowing is essential. Equally neces-
sary is the use OF the sub-surface
packer. blade harrow or some other
implement that will pack the furrow
slice firmly against the subsoil. These
two things are essential to the prepar.
alton OF a good seed bed and a seed
bed which will take up and hold all
the precipitation during the fall and
winter. says the Kansas Farmer. Gen.
orally speaking. too much plowing
and narrowing is done for the express
purpose OF getting enough loose dirt
on the surface to cover the seed. As
moisture is paramount to the growing
OF any crop. methods conducive to
the taking up OF that moisture by the
soil and the holding of the same In
the soil for the growing crop. are i'm
portant factors In crop production.

Amazing Telephone totals.

II is difficult 10 imagine our mod
ern complicated life being carried on
without telephones. There are today
more than twelve million FIVE hundred
thousand telephones in actual use
throughout the world and more than
thirty million miles OF telephone wire
are used. In other words, II these
wires were wound around the globe
they would form e band OF more than
one thousand threads.
In the course OF year some twenty
three billion people shout hello"
through the telephone. This is about
hve times the number of people trav-
cling annually on all the railroads in
the world. The longest commercial
service at present is that between
New York and Denver. a distance Of
2i60 miles.

It is needed. OF course. there is usu.
ally very little trouble after the grass
comes.
Plenty Of clover hay or alfalfa along
with little mixed bran and oats will
keep the lambs growing. That is a
point to be considered. | am certain
that lamb that once gets real check
In his growth never grows OUT Just
as he should. OF course the e=c mast
be kept In as good general condition
as possible. Before grass comes there
Is usually some trouble from constipa-
tion among the ewes. Bran feeding
will relieve this condition and keep
the eve from letting up In her milk
production.
The eve is inclined to be little fe-
verish after lambing. and about all Jhe
needs for the first day is a little hay
and plenty OF water. For the first
week or ten days she should be
watched for any indications that the
udder is caking and given quick atten-
ton when trouble is found
Within couple Of weeks after hey
are dropped, healthy lambs Will begin
to try 10 eat. They will nibble around
the trough when their mothers are fed
and they should be taught to eat at
that time II you wish to crowd th,m
along and get them ready for the fall
markets.
The best plan is TO fence on little
feeding place for them where they will
not be bothered by the older animals.
One corner OF the lot can be set apart
for them. Fix the fence SO the open
ings will be large enough to admit
the lambs and shut the old sheep out.
Feed them cracked corn or at least see
that II is shelled. as they will not be
able to get the grains OF the cnb.
Where oats, bran. wheat, barley or
any combinations OF these grains are
fed. the ration will need no special
preparation,
