The Harris Grove Farmers
Club met at the commodious
home of Mr.. and Mrs. M. S.
Meats on Saturday, Apr. 25th
It was an ideal spring day; all
enjoyed the lovely ride in the
beautiful sunshine and fresh
air. Nine families were pre-,
sent with q goodly number of
visitors.
The morning program open.
ed with a piano solo by Bernice
i Meats. Minutes Of last meet.
ing were read and approved.
Mrs. w. A. Selvy, G. w. Go.
wens and Mrs. j. H. Latta fur
nished readings. F. F. Beebee
read an article on the "Argen-
tine Scare" which brought
forth some very interesting
discussions. One of our MEM
bers had a sample of the Ar
gentine corn with him, and all
that were interested had a
chance to view this product
during the noon hour. AS that
time was already at hand, we
were invited to the dining
room to partake of the SPLEEN
did refreshments provided by
the host and hostess. After
the usual two hours intermis-
sion the club was again called
to order and Miss Gladys Jones
entertained US for q short time
with q very nice musical selec-
ton.
The readings were resumed
by Mrs. Harvey Jones, B. A.
Divilbess and Mrs. Meats,
which were very good. The
subject Of the last one being
''When and Where Shall the
Farmer Retire." was thorough
ly discussed but each one SEEM
ed to have a different idea
which proves that this is a prob
lem every farmer must solve
for himself. Our young peo-
Pile, Misses Hyrel Meats, HERNIA
Whiteman, Mildred Gowens
and Allene Latta rendered a
very nice program consisting
Of music and recitations which
was appreciated by all.
Questions were next taken
up.
1st.-Would the farmers of
Harrison county in general get
8 larger yield of corn and small
grain, if they would pillow deep
or ard thus work a deeper lay
er of earth, if so what depth?
It was tho't a depth of from 4
to 6 inches in the uplands was
sufficient, but in the gun DO
land on the Missouri bottom it
is impossible to pillow too deep,
provided this blowing is cone
in the fall.
End. How long can a field
be left to alfalfa without re-
seeding? 1t can be left With
out reseeding an indefinate
period of years, if we'll cared
for and the blue grass kept cut
off it.
3rd.-What can be done to
prevent insects from Destroy
ing our squash and melon vines?,
An application of air Stacked
lime or Paris green mixed with
fl ,ur and busted on the vines,
with a renewed application sf-
ter each shower seemed to be
favorite methods.
Questions for May meeting:
Which has the greater influ-
ence on the child's life, the
home life or the education OBJ
tanned in our public schools?
Referred to Mrs. F. F. Beebee.
End What is the ration for
q skim milk calf until it is two
months old? Referred to G
w. Governs.

HOW TREES PROCURE FOOD
Belief Is That Sustenance Is Digested
In Advance of Its Cor
sumption.

Every gardener knows that tree
can be fed and made to grow with in
creased vigor. If proper nourishment
in the form of humus, nitrogen, phos-
plate, etc., be placed about it's roots
the tree will absorb this food and
grow rapidly and strongly.
But how the tree feeds is somewhat
more difficult to explain. In all prob
ability the tree digests it's food first
and consumes it afterward. Certain
it is that the average tree has no
means of consuming food as a whole,
as members of the animal kingdom abb
sorb it. 1t is we'll known that the
larvae of certain insects digest their
food first and consume it afterward.
Observation would indicate that this
is exactly what the tree does. The
tiny rootlets act on the substances in
the earth, dissolving and breaking
them up so they can be absorbed
through the root pores. In order SO
to be taken up the chemicals must be
in liquid form and devoid of all waste.
The end of each root is armed with
a horny substance with which it can
burrow through the hard soil ii search
of food.

ONE OF NATURES WONDERS
Always Interested Students of
Biology.

What the editor of the Medical Rec
biology is the manner of the develop
ment of the heart of the child. He
writes as follows regarding an inves-
tigation by continental physician:
Zone of the happiest adaptations of
nature is found in the functional pc
culiarities of the infantile heart. From
the embryological viewpoint alone, the
evolution of this organ, from simple
pulsating tube to a complicated four
chambered pump, is one of the Won
ders of biology. An interesting phil
osophical inquiry into the special man
ner in which the heart of the child is
adapted to the needs of the growing

Venetian lace making, but Venice
played only one part in the history of
lace making. The Belgians are ia
nous for their work So are the
French. So are the Irish. So are
the Danes. People go to see Miss
Hadley's laces as they go to see old
friends, or as people go to the Metro
politan museum to feast upon it's
treasures. To some persons old laces
have very strong personal appeal.
When Miss Hadley disposes of one of
her belongings that she has had for
a long time, the regulars sigh, if they
do not actually mourn
There probably is not another bust
ness in all New York just like that
of this lace maker from a little Cana
dian town. She has the histories and
the romances of hundreds of families
in the goods she deals in. Many Of
her laces are heirlooms. Some are
old-time lace shawls that have been
in one family for two, three, four or
five generations. Some of them are
very old and very rare. Now it is
the fashion for us to use these as
wedding wells or as decorations for
wedding dresses. The more of his
tory there is to one of these ex-
quisite bits of lace, the more valu-
able.

organism is presented by Armbruste1
in the Zentralblatt fur Kinderheil
kunde, August 1, 1914.
"He notes that the increased rate
of the heart beat in early life dimin.
ishes the burden of the heart in the
following manner: the amount OF
blood pumped at each impulse is cor
respondingly smaller, the aspirating
force of the right heart is increased
and the rapidly developing heart mus
Gle is more effectively nourished. The
author attributes the relative immuni
ty of very young children to infectious
diseases to the rapidity with which the
blood flows through the arteries, which
rapidity makes it difficult for micro.
organisms to gain foothold in the
blood stream"

infancy in the United States. So long
as there is wealth, ard the love of
the beautiful, lace making will endure.
There is no reason why American lace
makers should not. if we'll taught, be-
come the equal of the European. The
American girls who have taken up
lace making and have been ambitious
and have had their heart in their
work, have made surprising progress.
Some of them, in flet lace make parts
of the mesh just as well as do the
most expert lace makers of Europe.

one of her old Iaces has been torn by
accident or through the carelessness
of a servant That lace has been the
joy of her life, the pride of all her
possessions. If Miss Hadley cannot
mend it, what is she to do? Miss Had
ley does mend it. 1t may take months,
sometimes it takes year if the dam
age is particularly bad, but she can
mend anything that a needle is capa-
BILE of mending. 1t does not signify
If 1t is point applique, or rose point,
or BRUCE, or venetian, or carrickma-
cross, or burano; once she sees the
stitch and the design, the rest is mere
ly matter of patience-a patience
most trying in some instances.
To assist her in her work, the lace
expert has had to train quite large
number of women. Some Of these are
going to take up the line of teaching
later on. The work they are now do
ing is delicate in the extreme; it is so
fine that they cannot work at 1t more
than two or three hours day. On
some of the pieces made by lace
makers the needleworker is employed
two or three years. The number Of
stitches they take is in the millions.
They make things as small as a but
terf1y and they make others things as
large as great tab!ecloth that would
cover board of the most generous
proportions. No painter ever gave
ofs 10 Info do
remarkable needleworkers in carrying
out the designs in these fabrics. They
have to know art and they have to
know history. They stitch out Egypt's
most famous queen just as easily as
they do the plainest of mosaic work.
Rich Women Her Pupils.
Probably no woman in the world
has had more rich women for her pu-
pills than has this needleworker from
Canada. One of the first women she
taught when she came to New York
was Mrs. William Aston. Her second
or third was Mrs. Coils T. Hunting
ton To give the whole list would be
like repeating the Blue Book.
Mrs. Huntington has come to be
one of the greatest collectors in Amer
lea. Her laces are of fabulous value
She has given more earnest study to
the history Of lace than any other of
the rich women that have shown ex-
pertness in needlework. She is al
most qualified to be lace expert ner-
self. If she lost all her money to-
morrow, she could earn good living
from her knowledge of laces.
TO Miss Hadleys mind no business
open to women today offers greater
opportunities than lace making. 1t is
broad IN its scope. It takes in the
poor girl and the girl who is gently
bred. It's rewards are large TO those
who master it. 1t practically is IN Its
