JUDGING FARM CROPS

There has been some wholesome criticism of the use of the score card Tn judging farm products. Too much emphasis has been placed upon the fancy points and not enough upon the hardness, vigor and yield of the pro- duct in question. After all, profit is the object in growing any crop or animal and that should be the ideal toward which the judge should strive. But this does not mean that the score card is to be less useful in determin- ing the desirable qualities of the pro- duct in question. How are we to de- termlne the excellence of a product without some artificial standard with which to compare the article we are judging?
 The score card will continue to be useful, perhaps more useful than formerly, but we will know more as to what are the physical points of a good product. Superintendent A. K. Short of the Temple -Belton experi- ment station has found that an ear of corn which scores high according to our present score card may not and often does not yield better than others that would score very low ac- cordlng to our present system of judg- ing. In other words, we have not yet determined adequately, it seems, what are the external character of an ear of corn of high yielding quail ties. The same may be true with oth- CT products.
 But we have made progress. We have some standards by which we may select one product and reject others. We are able by means of the score card to eliminate many of the undesirable points in selecting seed and in passing upon products at the fair.
 What we need and what we hope our stations will determine for us is a standard of points that are more indicative of yield. Now that our at tention has been called to the points of the score card, let us find out how yield may be indicated by the char acter of the product-Farm and Ranch.

4 NATIONAL MENACE
 Omaha Bee.

Ten per5,ns were killed and num- erous oih,rs injured in a, tomoti'e ac- ciderts in alf dozen cities last Sun day. SIn,'; ys and holidays seem to incite tho speed mania, naturally enough, as freedom from regular busi- hess affairs tends to loosen restraint and urblidle passions. Ten lives, to say nothing of the injuries not fatal, is an caGrmous toll to pay foc one days joy-riding That equals the tot al number of dead reported the coun- try over from Fourth of July eXplos. ions. Which suggests the great op oortunity for "safe and sane" mot bring propaganda, just as we have been carrying on as to Independence Day celebrations.
 When we remember how the news review of July used to roll up the scores of dead and dying from the deadly firecracker and toy pistol we can readily appreciate the excellent results already achieved from the "safe and sane" movement. Agitat- ion counts in this country. Let the American people bend to the task of bringing about a certain purpose, em- ploying the press, pulpit, rostrum, schools and other means of publicity, and there is no telling what may not benn indulging in crazy celebrations of the Fourth longer than they have been joy-riding in automobiles. The former habit had a deep hold, and if it could be loosened so quickly in the interest of life and limb, certainly the acquired craze can be checked also.

AN UNLAWFUL KISS
Argonaut.

The boundary line between lawful and unlawful kissing is laid down by the Imperial Court at Leipsic. Ger many: "A kiss is an operation on the body of another which always re- quires the permission of the persons kissed. Kisses may only be given without special permission when the tacit consent of the other is certain that is to say, in the case of close relatives, parents, children and lovers. If, on the other hand, the other not merely affects coyness, but offers ser ious resistance, it is to be assumed that the kiss is regarded as an illegal interference with personal rights and an impairment of honor Whoever, under such circumstances, imposes a kiss on another renders himself. there fore, guilty of an insult by the act. For the fulfllment of these conditions it suffices that the kiss is given against the will of the other. It is not necessary that he himself feels the kiss to be insulting"
 Commenting on the German ruling, Law Notes refers to a decision by the highest court of Texas in Fuller vs. State, in which the Court held that if a man merely puckered up his lips at woman and smaked them without showing intent to kiss her against her wishes, he was not guilty of an as sault, although it may have been inn proper for him to suggest that he would like to kiss her. The record shows that after the defendant had repeated his osculatory demonstra- tions the woman said; If that is the best you can do you had better go home" Law Notes says: Here lies a plausible explanation for the de- fendant's being haled into court May not the prosecutrix have been actuated by pique and resentment owe the extraordinary ineptitude of the defendant in the premises ?"

Building Up the Community.

The dollars spent with the home merchant are the dollars that help to build up the community, Nobody ever heard of mail-order house Tn a distant city making a contribution for the improvement of the town. The merchant in the city pays nothing to- wards the support of the school in which our children are educated, nor for the support of the churches in which our people worship. In fact, the dollar sent to the merchant in the big city is gone forever, so far as any good to your community is concerned Is it fair to deprive the home mer- chant of your cash trade and thus de- prive the community of the benefits to be derived from keeping this money at home? Civic pride is a virtue to which that citizen cannot rightfully lay claim who makes pratice of spending away from home for his purchases just for the sake of saving a few pennies on each Let's all band together in an effort to build up the community by patronizing the home merchants.

Cheer Up"

Henry Ford of Detroit has not been generally considered practitioner of "mushy amiability." He would not be likely to mistake a real condition for one merely ''psychological.' And this is what Mr. Ford says of business conditions:
 "I do not see any depression that is marked Such as there is seems inspired, and l do not think it amounts to more than per cent of the total volume of business in the country"
 And this is what the Iron Age says of the situation in it's field, which is considered kind of barometer of conditions in a large field of indus rial activies:
 Indications of improvement in the stel trade are notably increasing. The corner seems to have been turned at last and manufacturers are now conf dent that the remainder of the year will show a much larger volume of business than the first half"
 According to news received in this city couple of days ago ard printed in the Plain Dealer the Pennsylvania Railroad has ordered back to work thousands of shop men laid off a few months ago. This report from Phil adelphia is beleived fairly to reflect upwards tending conditions among all the more important lines.
 As MT. Ford said to the correspon- dents at Washington, "Cheer up."

EASTER GIFT BASKETS.

The baskets are indispensable as re-

their colorings that to triln them is like

a good scheme to line them with soft

Comparatively few Of the less expen-
sive Indian baskets have lids. but one
may easily ne made by covering a
pasteboard circle with plain silk and
attaching it. by single hinge Of ribbon.
