MISTAKE MADE BY MOTHERS
Effort to Exercise Too Great a Re-
straInt on Child ls Deprecated
by Writer.

In the Womans Home Companion
appears the first Of a series Of articles
on the care Of children entitled Your
Children's Clothes" The author tells
the following story and gives some
good advice
"A child's clothing is a factor OF
very great importance in the develop
ment Of his body and character. Last
summer at the seashore a mother
complained to me Of her four-year-old
boy, johnnie cannot keep his clothes
clean for five minutesI Q
Il watched this little boy at play,
and though / saw the truth Of the
mothers complaint my sympathies
we're decidedly with the little boy, be-
cause the person at fault was not the
child, but the mother. All that morn
ing the little boy was harassed and
suppressed, as he probably had been
from his earliest childhood. by such
phrases as: Don't, Johnnie, you viii
get your clothes dirty
Here was a child whose develop
ment was stunted and sacrificed for
the sake Of his clothes. He had never
been given a chance to play freely,
to exercise freely, to learn to do
things by the actual doing Of them.
and so, therefore. he naturally had
never gained control over his muscles.
He was fiabby and clumsy, he STUN
bled over everything, he could hardly
throw a pebble into the water without
falling into it. This child. though ap-
parently well and strong, and bright
enough, was practically helpless phys
ically, and by this lack Of muscle Co
ordination his mentality and spirit
we're affected"

FOUNDATION FOR GOOD ROAD
First Thing Road Builder Should
Strive For ls 70 Have Ground
work Good and Solid.

QBy r. ". HOUSE Colorado Agricultural
College)
The good roads movement IN Colo
rado seems now to have acquired full
swing and the next ten years win see
most Of our important roads surfaced
with gravel It is important that this
gravel be placed upon a good founda-
ton OF It viii be mixed with the clay
and lost.
Some time ago an important road
was being surfaced and those in
charge we're blowing up the old road,
which was very hard. the Jumps we're
being broken as much as possible,
then the road was given a light roll
ing, wet thoroughly and the gravel
then spread and rolled When asked
why they were putting the gravel on
the soft mud foundation, the reply
came. 80 that It win knit well with
the clay" This Is exactly what should
be guarded against as much as posi-
bic and is the very thing road builders
should seek to avoid.
Let us remember that gravel will
knit or mix with the clay below in
spite Of all we can do. but the harder
the clay foundation surface Is and the
frmer It is compacted, the longer will
the gravel stay on top and give a
smooth wearing surface and the long

All authorities are agreed on this
point and the FIRST thing that a road
builder should strive for is to have his
earth foundation solid and hard and
the drainage so fixed that It will re
main so.

There Is no other kind Of live
stock that win return so large a profit
to the successful producer as viii
poultry, and no kind Of poultry is more
profitable than turkeys when handled
properly
The fact that turkeys will, from the
time that they are six weeks old till
winter sets in, gain the greater part
Of their entire living from bugs. grass.
hoppers and waste grain that they
pick up in their wanderings over the
range, assures their existence through
this period at little or no cost to the
grower.
They may be termed self-sustain-
ing foragers where they have sum
cient range.
The chance Of profit in the produc-
ton Of turkeys is gradually improv-
ing as a result Of a more general use
OF the flesh.
There cannot be much opportunity
for growing poults to maturity when
they are Matched late in the season,
they may be sold for broilers at a
good profit
No dish is more valued in our large
cities at the present time than
broiled poults.
Turkeys that are Matched early in
the spring would grow to weigh from
fourteen to twenty pounds by Thanks
giving week.
These weights are often exceeded
BY the best growers, but as they are
the most popular and the most readily
produced they are suggested as the
most advisable.
The average yield OF turkey hens Is
from eighteen to thirty eggs, each of
which can usually be counted on to
produce q living poult.
The question Of profit from keepine
turkeys simply resolves itself into
the ability Of the grower to bring
them to marketable size. This can
readily be done If care and atten-
ton be given to all the requirements
Of success.
Six standard varieties are more or
less grown in this country: Bronze,
Narragansett, Bun. Slate, White and
Black.

Rose Tree BIoomed az chrIstmas.

A pretty story OF a rose which
bloomed at Christmas in front Of some
trenches occupied by a German regi-
ment Of guards In France is told in
the Frankfurter zeitung. The rose
bush was growing in a huge hole torn
by a she'll in front Of the guards

Of the company before whose trench

Christmas eve the rose tree bloomed.
The company decided to send the rose
to the emperor. The kaiser was de-

Richard Voss, to write a poem about
the incident. The poem has now
been printed, and a copy Of it is to
be sent to every guardsman con-
cerned In the affair.
