constructed i'll This smokeless village.
They are equipped with electric stoves.

home can be operated almost as cheaplN
as the common garden variety with its
coal bins. ashes. SCOT aud general bother.
While the bills for electric energy are
nearly always high for the first month.
the housewife soon learns to employ the
current economically and these bills are
usually cut in half. According to the
official heading this enterprise. the secret
of cheap operation of an electric kitchen
lies in the performing of many oper-

They will send any purchases to the
freight station and the freight charges
are very low. The trouble has been that
had no way to get them the two miles
from our trolley station to the house
except to ask Lovett. who keeps the
general store at the station. to send
them out in his delivery wagon And
as Lovett handles all such supplies him
self. to ask him to do that kind of de-

that appealed to her. but Bill got next
to her sympathies. The bidding started
at $17 and at SCI he was about to
be knocked down to a farmer who.
Jane said, looked too mean and ornery
to feed his family, let alone poor
old no-account horse. So Jane entered
the lists and she and the farmer had

ponent quit and Jane woke up to find
herself a livestock owner.
Jane didn't have s42 with her. but
agreed to take a note with her as in
dorser for the difference. Jane had
never driven a horse in her life. but
Bill looked like a good. safe propo-
sition to begin with. Just TO be con-
servative. however. she had Bills
halter strap tied to the back of Mrs.
Browns buggy; then she sat on the
front seat of the dayton and held the
reins all the way home.

Trouble in Hiring Help.

l have been trying to hire a man to
through the season, but it seems to be a
labor demand that is hard to supply.
Men who are worth having want assur-
ance of steady work and as my three
days would have to be days when the
weather permitted cultivation of the soil
1 haven't yet been able to find any one
who would undertake it. / tried to fig
ure out that by growing some stuff for
market l could hire a man regularly by
the week, but as the two men Mr.. Brown
sent to see me wanted $50 a day and
wanted to work only from 30 a. m. till
$50 pm, with an hour off at noon,
couldn't manage to make my figures
show a profit.
Country life and the notion of farming
is getting a pretty strong grip on me, and
would like to try for a Year, devoting
my whole time to it. AS that is vain
longing. however. under present circum-
stances. l have to put it ruthlessly aside.
The distressing thing is seeing SO much
to do-things that l really want to do
and not having time to do them. When
it comes to working out in the garden
next summer in a broiling sun farming
may not seem such a joyful occupation,
but now ! begrudge the hours | have to
spend at my desk.
1t seems hard to understand how any
man could prefer life in the city to farm
ing Yet fully half the farms in this part
of the country are the market. Their
owners want to sell and move to town
to be street car conductors or, perhaps,
work at day labor. T.. S. NJ.

plowing this week. but the rain came
along and interfered. 1t will be week
or ten days now. at the best, before the
ground will be dry enough. The delay
is disappointing, but my farmer friends
advise me 1t will be better to wait than
to break up the ground while it is cold
and wet.
There is a little piece off to one side of
the main garden that ] am going to have
.plowed without waiting for much dry
ing out. and shall plant early peas, a few
onion SETS some radishes and a couple
of rows of early sweet corn. Most of
these will germinate and do fairly well
even when the ground is cold. and will
serve to give us a taste of our own
vegetables as soon as possible.

siderable figuring with pencil and paper,

questions of newspaper men is the de-
spair of the profession He never re-

pert as a verbal fencer that he can
