Don't Bottle the Why's"

One father who has had some
success in training his children to
think and act for themselves well
and wisely, declares that the secret
lies in answering all their questions
fully frankly and sympathetically.
He tells the child everything he
knows on each question that is ask.
ed and if his knowledge is not ad-
equate. spares no pains to make it
so. The method is not always con
venient for the teacher, but it re-
suits in a surprisingly large fund of
information for the pupil, an eve T.
growing desire for more, a habit OF
going straight to his father for en-
lightment. and a sense of RESPONSE
bility for his own conduct.
Aside from inconvenience. the
reason why parents SO commonly
object to this way of dealing with
the questioning habit is the fear
that the child will never permit
them to make any exceptions but
experience has proved that the
fear is groundless. Instead of max
ing himself disagreeable, the child
usually acquiesces. He is willing
to remain ignorant; for having
learned that his father and his
mother are sympathetic and reason
able. he concludes that in this case
it is not possible for them to ex.
plain. and so is content to obey
without knowing why.-Youth's s

Loving Words.

Loving words will cost but little,
Journeying up the hill the life;
But they make the weak and weary
Stronger. braver for the strife.
Do you count them only trifles?
What to earth are sun and rain?
Never was q kind word wasted,
Never one was said in vain.
When the cares of life are many,
And it's burdens heavy grow.
Think of weak ones close beside you
Ii you love them, tell them so.
What you count of little value
Has an almost magic power,
And beneath their cheering SUM-
shine
Hearts will blossom like a flower
So, as up life's hill we journey,
Let US scatter all the way.
Kindly words, for they are sunshine
In the dark and cloudy day.
Grudee no loving word or action
AS along through life you so.
There are weary ones around you
If fyou love them tell them so.

WORK ROADS IN THE SPRING

1t is a great mistake to put on
working roads until August or Sep
tember, according to road experts Of
the United States department of agri-
culture. The roads should be worked
when the soil is damp so as to make
the soil bake when It dries out. II
the roads are worked when they are
dry, 1t takes more power to draw the
machine and besides dry earth and
dust retain moisture and quickly rut
after rains. The use Of clods, sods.
weeds or vegetable matter in build
ing earth roads should be avoided be-
cause they also retain moisture.
If the working Of the roads is de-
ferred until the latter part Of the sum-

The King Road Drag.

and hard, they are not only difficult
to work, but the work is unsatisfac-
tory when done. Earth which Is loose
and dry will remain dusty as long as
the dry weather lasts, and then turn
to mud as the rains begin. By using
the road machine in the spring while
the soil is soft and damp, the surface
is more easily shaped and soon packs
down into dry hard crust which is
less liable to become dusty in sum-
mer and muddy in winter.
Repairs to roads should be made
when needed and not once a year
after crops are laid by. Because Of
its simplicity, efficiency and cheap
ness, the split-log drag or some sim
liar device is destined to come into
more and more general use. With
the drag properly built and its use
we'll understood, the maintenance of
earth and gravel roads becomes sim
pie and inexpensive matter. Care
should be taken to make the log go
light that one man can lift It with
ease, as a light drag can be drawn by
two medium sized horses and re-
spends more readily to various meth
ods Of hitching and the shifting posi-
tion Of the operator than a heavier
one. The best material for the drag
is a dry cedar log, though elm, wal
nut, box elder or soft maple are ex-
cellent Oak, hickory or ash are too
heavy. The log should be from seven
to ten feet long. and from eight to
ten inches in diameter. 1t should be
split carefully as near the center as
possible and the heaviest and best
slab chosen for the front. When the
soil 10 moist, but not sticky. the drag
does the best work. AS the soil in
the field will bake II plowed wet, so
the road will bake II the drag Is used
on Il when It is wet II the roadway
is full Of holes or badly rutted the
drag should be used once when the
road is soft and slushy.
The earth road can best be crowned
and ditched with a road machine and
not with picks and shovels, scoops,
and plows. One road machine with
a suitable power and operator will do
the work of many men with picks and
shovels. and in addition will do 1t bet.
