Give A FARMING course


WASHINGTON, Feb. 22 The de-
larment of agriculture recommends
that in place Of a trip to Washington
the young prize winners of the corn,
canning and poultry, and other agri-
cultural clubs be given a years course
in practical training at some aguicul-
tural college. In case the young
champions academic training would
not enable him to enter the dgriCul-
tural colleges of his state, a more Gle
mentary course in u school whore ag-
riCulture is taught or course IN an
agricultural high school are recon-
monded
The department considers that such
courses have considerably more last
ing value for prize-winners and for the
agriculture of their sections Than fly
ing trips to the capital. The state and
local organizations which have been
Iaying for these trips have been sin
cerely interested in developing a true
appreciation Of farming as a business
among the boy and girl farmers, Some
of these have agricultural course as
the more desirable prize
one of the first persons to raise the
question rs to whether the practical
training or the more spectacular trip
was Willie p. Brown, an Arkansas
corn club prize winner Given his
choice Of all the prizes offered by
the state, including the trip to Wash
igton, he selected a scholarship Civ
ing him a years tuition In an agT-
cultural school. This gave impetus to
the idea in Arkansas, and now the big
gest annual prize offered the corn club
boys is a scholarship given by the
Bankers association. The same asso-
citation gives similar scholarship to
the girl champion Of the canning
clubs
other suggestions regarding prizes
have been made from time to time by
those who have been most interested
in these clubs and understand the
needs of the boy and girl farmers,
Some Of these suggestions are offered
herewith for the consideration of 9th
ers who might care to profit by them,
Two Weeks Courses.
While q years course with all eX-
penses paid is the suggestion of the
department for the biggest prize for
state winners, less expensive courses
might be offered to county winners.
1t has been suggested that such coun-
ties as care to give prizes. give one
or more short courses in the state
agricultural and mechanical colleges
to the fortunate county champions
These courses are usually only two
weeks long and are held in winter or
in summer. The training given is OF
the most practical sort and the
amount Of time spent is no gauge of
the amount Of benefit to be obtained
These short courses have already been
given as prizes by certain counties, and
have proved most valuable to the
young people.
Large Prizes Not Encouraged.
Large cash prizes are not TO be en-
couraged, according to those who
have worked with the young contest

And they may have 1t braided in neat and shining strands and still be fashionably dressed as to their heads. And at the front the hair may be trimmed across the forehead in bang or parted in the middle or at one side. No one style has been adopted as better than another, but there is growing fondness for old fashioned curls such as the little daughters of colonial danes wore with such demure pride
 But however the mother may de termine to dispose of the matter of dressing her darling's head, one thing Is certain, ribbons of some sort will be introduced in the scheme to the joy of the wearer and every one within sight of her. Plain wide taffeta holds first place in popular favor for hair bows and is not likely to be displaced It is crisp, with crispness that re mains, and made in every color of the rainbow and many more.
 Two arrangements of ribbon bows are shown in the picture. The bow al the left is made of ribbon, six or more inches in width. tied in a pair of loops and two epds: that is in the simplest

of bows and known as the Alsatian bow. It fastens in strand of wavy hair at the left side and it's business is to be purely ornamental.
 At the right, the hair is braided in two smooth braids, starting at the nape of the neck. They are wound with small strands of hair at the ends and wrapped about the head. The ribbon is in one length. One end Is tied about the braids at the left side in bow showing two loops and a short, slanted end. The ribbon is brought over the top of the head and tied in the same sort of bow at the right side. The braids are actually tied together by the ribbon.
 This style is neat and substantial, and is said to encourage the growth of the hair.
 When taffeta ribbon becomes crushed from tying it is easily fresh ened. It should be dampened by rub ping 1t with a clean moist piece of white muslin or linen. When it is evenly dampened place 1t on the iron ing board and spread clean piece of white tissue paper over it. Iron 1t dry, under the tissue paper, with moder- ately hot iron.

Lack of Merchant Marine.

A rare sight in this harbor recently was the passing out to sea of four masted schooner under full sail.
 How little is known in regard to shipping by the general public was shown by the fact that even Manhat- tan Islanders who have an opportuni- ty for seeing more ships and greater variety of shipping than any other of our citizens were heard to refer to this schooner as square-rigger. Is 1t to be wondered at greatly then that a nation which takes so little interest in shipping that seaport citizens do not distinguish between fore and aft and a square-rigged vessel has been swept from the sea?
 Is not this condition largely due to the indifference shown in our public prints" to matters having to do with our maritime supremacy? The charge cannot be laid to the door of the aver age American citizen that he does not faithfully read his daily paper. which wields so great an influence in the education of the masses.
 It is rarely that our humiliating con- dition on the high seas is referred to in our great dailies. As practically there are no ships in the over-sea trade under the American flag, there is nat urally very little to chronicle about the very few we have left.-New York Sun.

HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT
MAKING GOOD GRAVEL ROADS
Bed Impervious to Moisture Roll Down to Suit.

It. looks like the bulk of money is larger than the faculty for building. What we want are good roads not for ,coasting purposes, but for the good of the travelling public. We have had some experience in gravel roads and the best ones are made in this way. says writer in the Iowa Home stead. We locate the center of a well-formed road bed, then four feet each way from center we open out a gravel bed eight feet wide and twelve or fifteen inches deep, depending on the kind of soil. The road bed is filed with coarse gravel mixed we'll with clay. or earth. and crude oil
