THE FARMERS INCOME.

The latest estimate of the United
States department of agriculture is
that the average farm income in cash
is $500. Aside from this he has ell the
stuff consumed on the farm.
This is quite different from the dis
NAL statement that has been going
around to the effect that his income is
one dollar per day In addition he has
his rent and fuel and a team with which
to seek recreation for his family.
Now add to this the fact that the
Wisconsin farmers make more than ff-
ty per cent more than the average OF
the United States and you have the
situation as to this state.
The farmer is all right and he is
making more every year.

Rat Diet Approved.

Now that we have three Chinese
restaurants in the west end, London
evs ought to be able to enjoy the
pleasure Of feeding off rats, which
form a fayorite dish in China Split
open, dried, pressed, and powdered
with a finely ground white bark, they
look somewhat like had Jocks as they
hang in long strings over butchers
stalls, says the London Chronicle.
Or. Arthur Stradling, who shared
Frank Buckland's cosmopolitan tastes
in food, once declared that rats
would be not only wholesome, but
very nice, II properly prepared-not
common sewer rats, but such as ate,
barn-fed animals shared in a hop-gar-
den The flesh, though perfectly
white, was dry and tasteless; but
then they were only skinned, cleaned
and submitted to the Ere without any
of the etceteras which make other
meats savory Admiral Beaufort and
other Arctic explorers speak highly
OF rats as a welcome addition to their
supply Of food in these dreary lati-
tudes"

Dr. Blanchardd's conclusions are
based on an analysis of 5000 cases re-
corded it Chicago hospitals and dispen-
saries, of children suffering from de-
formities, most of them tuberculosis
and ricketts,.
The immigrant woman has nearly
twice as many children as the Ameri-
can-born woman, Al per cent against
.29 per cent. The Importance Of this
question is appreciated when 1t is I'M
derstood that bad deformities, curva-
ture of the spine and disabling condi-
tions due to either ricketts, or tubercu-
losis in the young of these new immi-
grants, means large number OF help
less paupers for future generations to
care for. Congress has established a
government station in Chicago for the
care and protection Of newly arrived
immigrants. If the federal govern

ties could be aroused to the necessity
of caring for the immigrant mother the
first year or two in her new home, it
would be a great saving for the future.
