Then the men began to march

Everywhere men left their afIafrs lust

make preparations to leave Berlin, as
Ambassador Gerard. with whom we
talked at the embassy. advised our

FOR PASTORS.
Washington Post.)

wv oOA11SIOA. L OSI.J
Washington congregations have not
yet so far as is known adopted the
new plan, popular in some cities, of
subscribing to a life insurance policy
for their pastors, but it is understood
that several local congregations would
be willing to adopt the plan.
In Chicago last week members of
one of the prominent churches agreed
to subscribe for a $4,000 policy for
their pastor. A group of persons
agreed to pay 1 cent a week to make
the policy possible. 1t cost $128 a
year.
It was pointed out by one Of the
leaders of the. movement that the
death of the pastor of his church
brought the idea to his mind. The
Rev. William W.. Wilson, of st. Marks
church, was killed by a street car.
He was survived by a widow and seven
children.
"You know the average minister is
not highly paid" he argued. IF any
thing happens to him his family suf-
fers. So you see the life insurance
plan will make him contented. It
may also be a big indueement to keep
him from accepting call of another
narish." a

HENS INHERIT LAYING QUALITY

Are Layers Controlled by Constitution.
al VigOr or Inheritance.
Only q few years ago the wise men
who had made exhaustive studies OF
hen physiology, psychology, tempera-
ment or whatever it is that makes
hens lay assured the public that he
reditary had nothing to do with it.
Constitutional vigor was the whole
and sole regulator of the hens capaci-
ty as a layer. We couldn't reconcile
such statements with our ideas about
breeding for better production and
L experience in breeding other ami
mails, SO we ventured to discuss the
proposition with a well known expert
at a poultry institute. He quickly
overwhelmed us with an array of
"facts," figures and conclusions from
the experiment station which had ris-
| covered that hens were exempt from
the laws of heredidity. We subsidized.
mUttering something about impossi-
bilities not being true in hens or any
thing else, and though silenced were
not convinced. More recently the
public has been Informed that the
pacity or disposition Of hens to lay
eggs is not merely a matter of con-
stitutioHal vigor but also heredity.
This time the heredity is of a singular
Iop-sided nature peculiar to hens only.
Then hen, according to the latest ver-
sion, may inherit low production from
either parent but she gets her ability,
or willingness to lay plenty of eggs
from her sire only-her dam has moth
ing to do with it. We are not going
to argue about it, for the other fellow
hag all the "facts" and figures and
conclusions just as he had before.
The only thing we shall venture, in
the presence of such unique and exalt-
ed science, is that the hen is a pecu-
liar c%ritter, a doubtful proposition
and like all doubtful things very un-
certain. This much, and perhaps a
few other things eternally feminine,
we are prepared to maintain in the
face of all the henologist of Christen-
dom and Heathenesse, including the
state of Maine.-National Stockman
and Farmer.

WHAT A FARMER SHOULD BE,
''Fhe Farm Boy of Today VIII be the
Farmer of Tomorrow"

''Fhe Farm Boy of Today Will be the
Farmer of Tomorrow"
This is a. truism, we may almost say
an altruism.
There is no ideal too high for a
farm boy to set up as his guiding
star. No professions is higher than
that of an educated farmer, for the
whole world is fed and clothed by
the nan who wrests from the ground
the necessities and luxuries of life.
The farm boy of today will not be-
come a drudge because he has before
himself the high ideals of a creator
and not a creature. We read that
God created man from the dust of the
earth. The farm boy has this same
ground from which to form his crea-
tons and, with the proper education,
which is within reach of all farm boys,
he car do many wonderful things. The
Almighty could not have done the
works he did without knowing how,
so the boy on the farm must learn how
to make use of the great creative
forces around him, among them the
chemical forces of the cir and the
earth. The farm boy should have a
technical education. of chemistry, the
rudiments of which he a learn at
school and he should keep up the
study all of his life, applying here and
there it's principles in feeding and in
erriching soil. He should be an
agronomist and study plant growing;
a botanist, because every farm home
should be beautified with flowers; an
anatomist and study the breeding of
| animal life; a machinist, and learn
every part of his implements; an
economist and study the needs of the
market and of production; a salesman,
so as to be able to sell his products
to the best advantage; an accountant,
so that he may Keep books on every
operation on the farm; a banker, be-
! cause he must needs to borrow money,
keep a bank account and do it correct
ly; a farm manager, first learning
! to control himself and then to man
age other men and affairs of his farm,
among them the rotation of crops and
the building up of the soil.
The farm boy should be happy, con-
tented, yet with unbounded ambition
and patience. He should be a gentle
man in all his dealings and a Chris
tan. With all these high ideas before
him he should be a natural, healthy
minded boy, a chum among his asso-
| ciates, full of life and fun; he must
! love the country, his community, his
fields and animals, love his home and
have a pride in his State.-Kentucky

HOW no MAKE FARM KITCHEN
An EFFECTIVE WORKSHOP

Improvement in the arrangement OF
the farm kitchen will result in saving
the energies of some 100000 peop1e
and make their work less heavy and
more enjoyable, according to Farmers
Bulletin No. COZ, issued by the u. s.
department of Agriculture.
This bulletin, entitled ''The Farm
Kitchen as a Workshop" discusses
not merely the proper location Of the
kitchen with reference to other parts
OF the house, but gives details as to-
the best methods of treating its floors
and walls, and gives well tested floor
Ilans for the ~step-saving arrangement
of the sink, stove, table, and other
kitchen utilities.
The author Of the bulletin, in her
introduction, states that a small, COM
pact kitchen many steps and
much useless labor inNthe preparation
OF food. This, however, is in homes
where the kitchen is merely a work
shop, and not used also as q general
purpose room where meals are sery-
ed and where the family gathers to
enjoy the warmth of the stove. Even
where a large kitchen is needed for
s1ch purposes, however, a logical ar
rangement is needed for such pur-
poses, however, a. logical arrange
ment of its various features with re-
Iation to- each other will enable the
housewife to do her work much more
efficiently.

AIECKWEAR and huff sets were
" never more fashionable than they
are just now, and they are among the
easiest to make of home-made gifts.
They confer both style and comfort
upon their weareTs to the joy of those
who receive them
Neckpieces are simply straight
lengths of velvet, plush or fur cloth,
cut a quarter of a yard wide and a
yard or more In length. They are
lined with satin and gathered in at the
ends, where a tasseled ornament
makes the finish. They fasten about
the neck with a hook and eye or slide.
Crocheted, passamenterie or bead
buckles and ornaments are used on
them.
Muffs are barrelshaped and made
over beds of down or wool batting.
These beds are bought ready made
and are very cheap. Velvet coverings
are usually gathered over them with
ruf1es at each end as shown in the
picture. The muf and ruf1es are lined
with satin. Silk cords or strands of
large black beads are fashionable this
season for decorating these sets.
