WHICH KIND IS YOUR HOME?
Conditions Are Far Reaching in Their
Effects Upon Children-keep
Boys on the Farm.

The desolate home-no paint on the
hpuse, no honeysuckle over the door.
and no time or money for the COM
forts within that go to make house
a home-such conditions are far
reaching in their effects. especially
upon children. No amount OF school
ing can dim the memory or change
the effect on the boy of such a home,
for the picture that is burned into
that boys brain lives forever. Is 1t
any wonder a boy raised under these
conditions hates the sight of a COW,
and even the farm itself, and is go
ing TO get away from it forever at the
earliest opportunity?
In contrast to this. there are other
farm homes where the question oil
how to keep the boys on the farm
never arises. Surrounding these
homes. are neatly moved lawns, with
flowers. trees and vines around the
painted. well-kept house which con
tains a piano, books and other com

SUCCESS FOR SMALL FARMER
In Discussing Tenant Problem Pro
qressive Farmer Points Out Seven
Steps Toward Ownership.

Most of the STEPS toward more sue
cessful farming are simple. The
Progressive FarIrer. in discussing the
tenant problem. points out seven steps
toward home ownership. and all are
simple. They aye: a garden. poultry,
pigs. cows, horses, better machinery.
land.
Not to the tenant alone, however,
hut to every small farmer. are these
steps of importance. Many a farmer
on a comparatively small place is de-
voting almost his entire attention 70
raising grain crops. He sells these
and buys from the store the food that
his family eats. There are two losses
one in the telling. the other in the
buying. By selling his grain. the
farmer loses both the additional
money profit that may be obtained by
feeding IL to stock and the fertility
that may be returned to the soil by
the same mears. In buying food-es'
pecialIy the canned goods which he SO
often purchases-N naturally pays
the heavy costs incident to modern
retailing. II he grew good home

unnecessary.
Farmers generally recognize the i'm
portance of horses and machinery
They do not. however, always recog

Closer attention to these matter

dren In the family, all normal, and
Miss Lee inquired into Carlotaa's his
tory. Securing medical examination,
she learned that, whatever bodily in
jury may have been caused by the fall,
it no longer existed.
1--WE cannot tell Carlotaa she is not a
cripple or sick, because her mind has
to be wakened up gradually to that
fact" Miss Lee said, but we are
teaching her by degrees. She is placed
in a special class at school, and her
teacher invents little exercises and les
sons for her.
"She had to be almost carried to
school. Her teacher made small sand
pile in the playground and many times
a day took Carlotaa there and helped
her walk over it, Today Carlotaa can
wax up and down the school stairs.
when school opened she could not
talk. Now she talks to us and knows
what we say. She can count in English
and Spanish and can write her own
name. Her father tells me she was I'M
usually bright before the fall and
see no reason to suppose that she can
not be restored to her former condition.
"She has been in bed for the greater
part of the past three years, as the
schools at Chino would not take her In.
So while her body healed itself, appar-
emily. her mind never recovered from
the shock of the fall"
Little Carlotaa was taken to the Par
ent-Teacher clinic for further examina-
lions to verify the diagnosis of other
doctors. If similar report is made her
special teachers will continue as they
have begun in their novel work of
teaching the child's mind that her body
is neither paralyzed nor injured in any
way.

TABLET FOR INDIAN
FRIEND or WHITES
Seattle Professor Seeks TO
Honor Chief Pat KaniTn.

Seattle, Wash.-Professor Edward S.
Meany of the University of Washing
ton is arousing public interest in the
memory of old Chief Pat Kanim of the
SnOqualmie and SnohomiSh Indians.
Chief Pat, stanch friend of the early
whites, is one of the forgotten heroes
of pioneer days, and Professor Meany
wants his grave marked with suit
able monument.
In the days when settlers had reason
to fear the lurking red foes in the deep
forests Chief Pat Kanim's people were
powerful where Everett now stands.
1t is not known just when the chief
died, but he was buried on a bank of
the Snohomish river.
When the grave was threatened by
the overlooking river relatives moved
the remains to the little cemetery on
the Tulalip Indian reservation, where
many of the tribes he ruled in power
now live in humble homes.
Bancroft's History of Washington"
tells of the chiefs craftiness in driving
Glasgow and Rabbeson from the first
settlement on WILDLY island in 1913.
He made a great drive with dogs and
secured sixty deer for feast of assem-
bled warriors. He counseled in favor
of driving the white men out of the
country.
Glasgow and Rabbeson went back to
Tumwater, and the next year Pat Ka-
MIN led an assault on Fort Nisqually.
While Pat Kanim was parleying inside
the stockade his brother was killed
leading an attack by the Indians. Pat
Kanim was spared, and in 1850 he
made trip to San Francisco in a sail
ing vessel. What he saw on that jour
ney made him resolve to become
friend of the white man. He faithfully
lived up to that resolution for the rest
of his life.
