VALUABLE HINTS ON
DiSP0SING OF REFUSE.
How Pits With Covers Aid the Clean
ere Of Streets and Walks.

When streets and sidewalks are
cleaned by hand sweeping there should
be provided receptacles Of appropriate
design and suitable capacity for the re-
ception of the street sweepings await
ing removal.
A useful form of such receptacle
would be one which could be removed
without being emptied, another being
left In its place for the next days
sweepings. The same method Is equal
ly applicable for small garbage and
household refuse.
There are other receptacles for street
refuse that may be sunk In pits
They are made Of steel with dumping
bottom. and the removal cart Is pro-
vided with means Of lifting them out
of the pit to the top of the cart. which
Is covered with a top having special
openings so that the contents Of the
cans may be dumped into the cart
without being scattered by the wind.
After being so dumped the cans are
lowered again into place In their pits.
In order to avoid handling such cans
pits are located In the sidewalk near
the curb. and the street refuse is swept
directly into them. small hinged daps
bridging the gutter. The pit Is, Of
course. provided with cover.
The removal Of all town street
sweepings and garbage refuse should
be done In wagons invariably having
covers in order to protect the passing
public and the workmen from escaping
particles. II is better. however, to
have It removed in the original cans.
leaving empty cans in place, as this is
an absolute protection to all concerned
and gets the wagons Off the streets
sooner.

n the fathers and mothers of the
boys and girls. who met in the chapel
OF the Foundation School Of Berea
College on Thursday afternoon could
have been present and looked for an
hour and half on one Of the most
interesting meetings that has ever
been held in that room, they would
have seen something long 10 be re-
membered and there would be bet
ter understanding today OF the great
work the United States government
is trying 10 do thru its special
agents. among the boys and girls IN
this state.
In a number OF counties including
Madison and several adjoining ones,
clubs composed Of boys and girls
have been organized for the purpose
Of encouraging them to become in
terested in breeding pure bred
chickens and pigs. in raising corn,
potatoes, tomatoes, peanuts: and in
the canning Of fruits and vegetables
All these clubs are represented In
the training schools and in the grad
ed school in Berea. They were
called together by Mr.. Spence. the
county agent. who has charge OF the
agricultural demonstration work in
the district TO meet in joint session
Thursday afternoon, April 1, so that
they all might become better ac-
duainted and have better knowledge
OF the things that the members OF
the different clubs were doing and
Of The things that they intended TO dc
during the coming year. A pro-
gram was prepared and boys and
girls representing each of the clubs
read original and instructive papers
about his or her particular line OF
work. others recited for the enter
tainment OF the audience.

Making the Little
Farm Pay
BY c. c. BowsFIHLD

A little farm must In the nature Of
things be a family affair The young
people especially should be interested.
In many cases boys and girls as well
as their parents would love the coun-
try II there were less drudgery and II
they had a partnership or share In the
live stock and vegetables. The family
should be IN full accord on the subject
Of bringing money making crops to
the front
There are opportunities for quick re-
turns on products that require little
land or Labor. Not one family in I've
hundred has ever grown peppergrass
In the fall and winter or even In the
spring. No other plant Is 80 easy to
grow. All II needs IL a fairly moist,
fairly rich soil and a temperature of
the ordinary living room or even less.
The seeds will terminate at 40 de-
grees, and the plants will grow a little
