Origin of Common Sense.

1t seems rather strange that so inn
portant and rare an attribute of man
KIND should be termed common" 1t
surely Is not possessed in any large
degree by the mojor!ty of the human
family.
1t may mean that the name refers
to the fact that this valuable sort of
sense has generally been noted as a
characteristic of plain, practical peo-
ple-common people, as distinguished
from the So-ca!led upper class. Web
ster says common sense means sound,
practical Judgment; the instantaneous
decision Of unperverted reason.
Let the origin be what it may, it has
always been exhibited here and there,
and is becoming more common among
all classes, not excepting highly cul-
tured folks. Common sense is a pro-
duct of natural tact, keen perception
and practical experience. There are
other terms that describe the same
quality in essense, such as good horse
sense" 'gumption," mother wit"
etc, but the standard term common
sense is sufficiently plain and des-
criptive.
Common sense should he the men,
tor and guide in all the affairs of the
farm and home. No matter how pro-
toundly able, scientific and philoso-
phical dissertation may appear to
be, the crucial test of its value IS COM
mon sense. Scientific love, added to
common sense, or vice versa. is
strong combination. Get wisdom
get understanding, get science, but in
al thy getting get common sense, is
the paraphase Of the words of an an
cient proverb.
Use Common Sense In Acting
The farmer should possess sufficient
common sense to know what to do in
various matters that may call for con-
SlderatioG.
The practical and sensible farmer
Will not attempt to run an experiment
farm, except in very moderate and
tentative way. Paul said; prove all
things; hold fast that which is good"
The wise farmer will improve that
rule a little by allowing the Govern
ment experiment stations to bear the
expenses and risks Of proving things;
then he will be ready to accept and
hold fast that which is good. The way
of wisdom is the straight and plain
course approved by experience; and
at the same time the wise man will
accept improved methods and better
ments when they are we'll attested,
The quality of common sense will
make the farmer conservatively pro-
gressive and keep him fully up to
date. And to be all that implies the
possession of a large measure of HUI
man wisdom

people woald enter heartily end glad

gestive, and each grower will have
to advise additional plans to suit his
| own conditions. Among the things
that particularly must be considered
in each specific case is the location
OF the garden. In this connection the
question OF proximity to the house
should be given first consideration.
AS the work OF caring for the garden
Is usually done in spare time, the
location selected should be as near
the house as possible. A slope to- the
south or southeast is usually prefer
Eble, because here the soil warns up
early din the spring, which permits
early planting and stimulates the
early growth of crops. Practically
any type OF soil can be used for the
garden, but sandy loan is to be
preferred. U
Good drainage is of prime impor-
tance. The land should have suffi-
cient fall to drain off surplus water
during heavy rains, but the fall
should not be so great as to wash
the soil. II the land near the house
is level, artificial drainage should be
employed. Open bitches or tile drains
will be satisfactory. On level land
that is not artifieially draned it is
necessary to plant on ridges or in
beds to prevent drowning the crops
during wet weather. The ridges or
beds should be as wide and flat as
sharp ridges drySout quickly.
Succession OF Crops.
In planning the location of crops,
consideration should be given to the
matter OF succession, In order that
the land may be occupied as large
q part of the time sas possible. 1t is
not advisable to have q second plant
ing OF the same crop or q closely re-
lated crop follow the first. Cabbage
should not follow cauiiflower, brus-
sells sprouts. mustard. or kale, fer
many OF the same diseases and in
nlatoes, elephants, and peppers
diagram this point has been consid-
cred in planning a succession of
crops. In some sections three or four
crops can be grown on the same land
each year, while in other sections
two crops are all that can be grown
to advantage. When q, crop is har-
vested early in the season and 1t Is
not practicable to plant another veg
efable for two or three months. the
land may be planted to cowpeas or
crimson clover. For example, after
q crop OK early cabbage 1t may not be.
desirable 20 plant another vegetable
crop until late sum ster or autumn.
In this case 1t would be desirable TO
SOW ccwpeas or crimson clover, TO be
turned under IN preparation for the;
fall crop.
Rotation OF Crops. s
Rotation OF crops Is as Important
in growing vegetables as Ia growing
field crops. and the same principles
can be applied. Crop rotation is Inn
portant in checking diseases and in
sects and In keeping the soil in good
condition. Where disaAses are very
severe, che same crop should not. be
planted continuously kon the same
area. Eotation of crops Is one ef the,
safeguards against soil injection.

SIT STEADY IN THE BOAT.

President Woodrow Wilson address
sed the Baltimore Conference of the
Southern Methodist church which was
in session in Washington, d. c., last
week. One of the things he said was
this, II value the churches of this
country as l would value everything
else that makes for the stability of
our moral processes. There are a
great many people--not so many that
they give me any particular concern
but nevertheless a great many. people,
who in the language OF the day, are
trying hard to rock the boat The
boat is too big for them to rock. They
are of such light materia! that they
cannot rock 1t very much, but they
are going through the motions, and
1t 10 Just as we'll for them to look
around once in q while and see the
great steadfast body of self-possessed
Americans not to be hurried into any
unconsidered line Of action, sure that
when you are right you can be calm,
sure that when the quarrel is none
OF yours, you can be impartial, sure
that the men who spend their pas
sion most will move the body polite
least. and that the reaction will not
be upon the great body of American
citizens but upon themselves"
Some who are trying to make the
great American ship of State rock are
doing so because they have gun powder
to sell and IL Uncle Sam entered the
war. he would be a big buyer and
would pay cash for his ammunition.
Others are doing so,, because their
sympathies are emphatically for one
side or the other in the big war and
their hope is that the United States
would help that side.
The suggestion has been made by
one of the New York papers that this
class of people, the boat rockers.
ought to be investigated by the gov
ernment.
But there are still others. who do
SO innocently, those who possess weak
or inmature minds and are easily
thrown into panic. These are to
be p;tied more thau blamed.
5 But the moral lesson that the presi- |
dent calls our thought to is per-
fectly clear one. Much depends in
every nation on that class OF men who
have the mental and moral capacity
to sit steady in the boat And es-
pecially is that so, when we are in q
crisis as we are now.
This is temperament of mind that
nil men ought to aim at. The age OF
discretion or self contral connot be
fixed by the number Of years that one
has lived. 1t comes to some much
sooner than to others. TO some 1t
seems never to come ut all. Some
minds seem always to be weak and
Immature. Others develop into men
Of poise and self control rapidly.
The old Romans rsquired the boys.t
whose minds were vet uneducated to
wear q scarletTboidered gown, but
On reaching the age of discretion, they
we're accounted as men and were re-
luired TO wear a plain black gown.
with US we have no distinctions in
dress to mark off the immature from
the mature.
But in all nations. the progress and
the stability of things depend upon
The number who. mentally and moral
" know how to sit steady in the boat
