An Asset to Be Realized Upon.

Minnesota occupies a singular and
delightful latitude for year-around
enjoyment. OF the radiant summers
and golden, OZonic autumns it is un-
necessary to speak; their unmatch-
able charm have given Minnesota a
reputation as wide as it is merited.
But our winter asset is likely to be
moderated and unappreciated unless
entirely understood.
IT,; The customary stability Of the
Minnesota winter adapts itself to
conditions of health and enjoyment,
says the St. Paul Dispatch Below
the region of intense cold and above
i the zone of rapid variations of tenn
7perature,. we escape the penalties of
winter moisture and capitalize all of
the benefits of outdoor enjoyment. We
may depend upon level conditions
which assure hockey, skiing and curl
ing, with their attendent pleasures
and whOlesOmeness. While other To-
calities are shivering in mist and
sleet or wading in midwinter flood,
Minnesota is reveling in sunshine,
exhilarating, health-giving sunshine,
in temperatures which permit out
door sports and impart the vigor to
make them enjoyable and beneficial.
True, our winters are shortening.
7 Possibly, in the fight Of the solar
system in it's Arcturian orbit, con-
1itions are created which curtail and
modify the cold season. But, this
only emphasizes the reasons for en-
joying to the full crisp, invigorating
winter while it is permitted u.s.
Change is life; monotony is death
The extremes of seasonal delight are
the charm of Minnesota.

Wasted Years.

lone thing I like about your
school," remarked Ex-President Taft
the other day, addressing technical
institution for girls, sis the fact that
you keep your pupils here from
O'Clock in the morning until in the
afternoon. and you don't give them
so much vacation. Our girls and
boys have entirely too much vaca-
ton"
Most of us are slowly coming
around to that view. The more we
think of it, the more absurd it seems
that our costly educational plants
should be idle about one-third of the
year, and not working to capacity at
any time. Of course, it isn't any use
keeping children cooped up for a
longer time than they can sustain
their interest and attention. That is
a matter for sensible adjustment. In
technical or manual work pupils can
apply themselves longer without
lAental WEAKNESS than in mere book
work
There isn't much doubt that any
put young children could be profit
ably occupied by proper alienation
of work, for say seven hours a day.
And children of all ages could be
prOfitably occupied for greater
number of weeks in the year than
they are now.
1t would be a boon to overbur-
dened mothers to cut short the sum-
mer vacations. And wise filing up
of the child's time would mean a
gain IF perhaps two years in it's per-
led OF preparation for the work of
life; CT better STILL two years work
added to the present preparation,
without taking any more time or any
more Of the child's strength.

X, FARMERS AS TO INCOME :

Washington, Feb. 10.-The De-
partment of Agriculture, after in
vestigating 43S families in ten differ
ent states in an effort to get cor
rect answer for the puzzling question,
"How much does the average farmer
make?" has reached the conclusion
that, the annual value of the food,
fuel, oil and shelter enjoyed by the
average farm family is $505. What
ever the farmer makes over this
amount he puts in the bank or
spends. ~
Of the $505, the farm furnished
directly $429, leaving only $76 to be
paid for with farm products or out
of the money obtained from farm
products. Food was, of course, the
principle item. This amounted to
$401.93, of which $330.65, or 1873
per cent, was raised on the farm.
The investigators found that on
the farm examined the average cost
of maintaining each grown person
was sits a year, divided as follows
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1915-02-10

Of this sum only about % per cent
was paid out in cash. The remain
der was furnished by the farm, not
in the form of money, but in those
things for which the money would
have been exchanged. On certain
area in North Carolina, included in
the scope of the investigation, it was
found that if it had not been for such
articles as tea, coffee, sugar, salt and
other groceries impossible to produce
at home, the farms would have been
self-sustaining. =
"The bulk of groceries are bought
said the investigators, "but the total
quantity consumed depended to a
great extent upon the quantity Of
animal products and vegetables rails
ed on the farm. Where these abound
ed the consumption of groceries di7

minished. From this it would seem
that an obvious way to effect an i'm
portland saving in expenses is to raise
more vegetables and animal products
on the farm. Whether 1t is better
to cut down expenses in this way or
to increase .receipts by concentrating
attention to cash crops is one Of the
great problems in farm management,
the answer to which in each individ-
ual case depends upon local condi-.
tions."

have the bridge in shape for traffic
Saturday. All that remains to be
finished is the installation OF hand
rails on the Brazos County side and
some OF the earth approach is to be
thrown up on this side. When com.
pleted the bridge will be about $50
feet longer than formerly. The bank
on both sides has oaved a great deal.

will be substantial enough to with.
stand any food which might occur
on the river In future.
A large number Of teams have been
engaged several days in throwing up
an earth approach to the bridge on
this side. The approach Is about $50
feet long. with maximum height Of
twelve feet. requiring about 2.o0e
yards OF earth In building II.
The exact cost Of the repairs will
not be known until the statement Of
the contractors is sent to the com.

ION T|PTOE FOR
T0MM0R0Ws GAME
Everybody Anxious to See How A. 4
N. Football Machine Under New
Coaches viii Work.

Unusual interest centers around the
contest at College Station Friday be.
tween the A. 4 NJ. and the Austin
College elevens. This Is the first
game OF the year for the Texas
Farmers and will give football fans
Of the State the first line on the
merits Of the squad which Coach Har.
Ian and Assistant Coach Graves have
been at with hammer and tongs for
near two weeks now.
The Farmers have been handi.
capped badly by the absence Of foot
ball weather. the hottest two weeks
Of the year having been recorded here
since the football men reported for
preseason practice Scrimmaging be-
San last Friday. just one week from
the day OF the opening game. and the
time devoted TO scrimmaging has
been OF necessity limited because the
men could not stand much work In
such weather. However. the Grim
son and white men have been put
through some strenuous work this
week and although they will be far
from a finished machine the coaches
will be able to get line on what the
various players viii be able to stand
and do under FIRE.
To pick men for a squad out Of a
gridironful OF seventy.flve men Is the
work Of the coaches. And here Is
the trouble this season-always be-
fore there have been twenty-five or
thirty men who showed up well. so
far above the other twenty-five or
thirty. In fact. that II has been no
trouble to eliminate the remainder.
This year practically every recruit
on the field has lot OF things TO
recommend him TO the coaches, and
the elimination Of twenty Ave men
is to be sore problem. The squad
this season win be composed Of fifty
rather than thirty men as heretofore.
this change having been made so that
the number Of men In training for |
next season could be increased.
Freshmen are showing up strong
and old men who have designs on
letters for another season are begin |
ming to show signs OF worry.
The coaches are reticent as TO the |
style OF play they viii follow and in |
fact no definite plans along these
lines win be made until they become
better acquainted with the ability Of
the men and the style Of play most |
adapted TO the timber at hand. Fri
days contest win be a big thing for
them.
Austin College generally may be
counted upon to interest even the
heavier and larger teams. and the
Sherman school Is favorite at A. & |
NJ Rumor has II that they are strong |
again this season and much more adj
vanced in their training than the
Aggies. At all events football fans
In Texas viii follow this game with |
much interest tomorrow.
