"The United States will have to
go through a long course Of dis
cipline before thrift is established
as a national virtue to the same
extent as it in Great Bril-
tain. The Toronto Mail and
Empire.
The movement to improve our mill
tary preparedness is receiving ma
tional attention at this time. II is a
matter of the utmost importance.
Another and somewhat similar prob
lem which confronts the nation and its
individual citizens today is the proper
conservation of national and personal
resources. It is admitted on every
side by those who are in a position TO
know that Just now is emphatically a
time for everybody 20 save as much as
he can for the best interests Of all
concerned.
Various plans have been inaugu-
rated TO encourage saving. IL is not
only banks that are back of these ef-
forts. In various ways a great many
employers are encouraging thrift on
the part of their employees, and there
is an increasing number of voluntary
thrift clubs" and investment associa-
tions. One of the latest of these Ia
come to our attention Is worthy OF
notice for the sake of others who may
be interested
This saving and investing organiza-
ton is called the "Moody's Magazine
Savings Club" Mr. A. w. Ferrin
President of the Moody's Magazine
and Book Company. New York, says.
There have been a large number Of
these clubs formed and several OF

MORE INTEREST IN POULTRY
Nearby Village Shows Afford People
Opportunity to Study Different
Breeds of Various Fowls.

The interest in winter poultry
shows increases fast each year. Little
towns now have their winter and
spring poultry shows. That most
people, country and town alike, keep
standardized poultry is the main rea-
son for this. Those who keep any
breed in the standard finally desire to
know all there is to know of this
breed, and how near to standard they
are keeping their fowls. The nearby
village poultry show gives them this
chance, as good judges are selected to
look after these shows. 1t gives you
the chance to compare your stock with
others; it builds up your interest in
the business; you get new ideas on
housing, feeding and caring for your
fowls in ways to insure vigor. Go to
all the poultry shows about, then take
in some held in the large cities. Here
you will come upon breeds of geese,
turkeys, ducks or other fowls that it
may pay you to keep.

FEEDING VALUE OF THE SILO
Indispensable to Man Who Buys
Steers to Fatten-Silase Preferred
to Dry Corn Fodder.

Those farmers who have never
studied the silo question, naturally do
not know how much money they are
losing every year in their feeding op,
erations No man who buys steers
20 fatten can afford to be without a
silo.
It is a poor cornfield that will not
yield an average of from ten, to fif,
teen tons of green corn per acre. If
this is cut into silage, it will make a
sure profit, at present prices Of cattle.
at from thirty to thirty-four dollars
per acre.
1t has been demonstrated conclu:
sively that silage-fed steers bring
more money on the big market than
those that are fattened on whole corn.
It is also fact well known to expert
enced feeders that Stage saves grain
and hay.
It is true that corn fodder contains,
under chemical tests, more protein,
carbohydrates and fattening material
than silage, but the fact remains that
steers do not get all Of the benefit
from corn fodder, while about every
thing that Is valuable as feed is con-
sumed in the silage.
Then silage, being quite bulky, is
an excellent feed given in connection
with ground grains and heavy meals,
as it aids greatly in their digestion.
Another thing, steers like silage. 1t
tastes good to them, and they eat 1t
with avidity
A steer prefers silage to dry corn
fodder just as a boy prefers pie to
dry corn bread but in the case of the
steer. the silage is better food for
him than the pie is for the boy.
Place silage and dry corn fodder be.
fore bunch of steers, and they will
not touch the latter until they have
entirely disposed Of the first. This is
an important factor in feeding, be-
cause palatability adds to digestive
qualities of feed, and the more a steer
digests the more fat he will put on.

Y T Helps Y
SHOULD INTEREST ALL CITIES
Experts Report on Conditions ir
Springfield, Ill.,, Worth Lot OF
Consideration.

In the first part of his housing sur
vey of Springfield, ILL.,, for the Sage
foundation John Ihlder of the National
Housing association highly commend
ed the prevailing type of house In
Springfield. In the third part he finds
some features concerning which his
comments are not so favorable.
"If Springfield is to remain what 1t
now is, a city of homes, 1t must take
other measures than merely discourag-
ing barracks construction, reads the
report. 1--WE have reached degree
of civilization in America where an
abundant and convenient supply OF
pure water and convenient sanitary
water closets inside the house are
considered necessities in any progress
sive community. Springfeld's ideals
are up to the standard. 1t has done
good deal to bring these twin neces-
sites to the homes of its people. But
it has not done enough to get the re-
suit actually aimed at"
The difficulties in the way Of getting
this result are admitted, but in the
case of city, as of an individual, to
give up because of difficulties argues
weakness of character" Instances are
quoted in the report wherein these diff
ficulties have been overcome and the
opinion is confidently expressed that
Springfield can overcome them in the
other districts But this calls for de-
termined effort and it is suggested
that it is not enough to lay sewers and
water mains in the streets. Houses
must also be connected.
Just what the situation is now and
what progress the city has made in
the last few years will be learned
through another division of the sur
vey which, with the cooperation Of
the city department of health, is just
completing an inspection of all prem
ises in the city. But, though it's COM
plete results are not yet available, it
is already seen that many houses are
still not connected, although the op'
portunity to do so has been at hano
for years.
The housing report says that the
city authorities should take more Wig
orous action and that they should for
bid the erection Of multiple dwellings
on streets without mains and sewers.

FIRST OF SOCIAL REFORMS
Doctor Eliot Points Out Necessity for
Proper Housing of Inhabitants
of Any Community.

. DR.. Charles W. Eliot, president
emeritus of Harvard university, is an
old man, but his scent for the basic
evils of our civilization is much keener
than that of many younger reformers
who seem to be turning in circle in
stead of getting at the center Of things.
One of the chief problems of our pres
ent-day civilization, according to Doc
tor Eliot, is the dirty, filthy back al
ley fiat"
Boston, New York, Chicago, he as
serts, no longer permit great sections
of their population to live normally.
The housing of workmen in these cit
les must undergo drastic changes or,
as a nation, we will run the risk OF
drifting toward "a countrywide ten
dency to degeneracy." The ex-pres!-
dent could have strengthened his
charge against defective housing con-
ditions of the United States by citing
not merely the largest cities, but also
many of the smaller industrial towns.
1t has been pretty definitely estab-
lished that slums grow up wherever
large industries locate, and that an in
dustrial town of $4,000 can have fully
as bad, if not worse, housing condi-
tions as an industrial city of 100000
or more.
The reminder from the Cambridge
savant that the home, or lack of a
home, is at the root of many Of the
social ills which distress the country
should serve to bring the subject Of
housing to the forefront of all social
reform progress, where it belongs.

rather than before, in order to avoid
the presence of dust and odors.
The water supply is factor too fire.
quently neglected. 1t is of prime i'm.
portance that the cows have an
abundance of fresh, pure water. There
are instances on record where heavy
mixers have consumed more than
three hundred pounds of water per
day; and Is pounds or more is actu-
ally required by COWS that produce rs
pounds of milk. Ice-cold water is as
bad for animals as for human beings,
and in extremely severe weather it
may be found necessary to warm the
water slightly in order to induce the
cows to drink sufficient quantity. OBJ
viously the water trough should be
clean and sheltered as much as possi-
BILE from the weather.
In view of the comparatively narrow
margin of profit in producing milk, it
will seem impracticable to many pro-
ducers to burden themselves with the
increased expense involved in such
precautions as these. 1t must be re-
membered, however, that in addition
to the duty to the community which
the producer owes, the importance of
pure milk is being more and more ap-
preciated by the consuming public,
and that this appreciation will bring
valuable returns to the dairyman who
complies with the rising sanitary
standards. Not only are a better class
of patrons and steadier market Sc
cured, but the health of the farm fam
lily, which uses large portion of the
milk itself, is safeguarded; the health
of the calves, which live on the milk,
is improved, and the whole herd pro-
tected from disease. Stricter methods
of cost keeping and the elimination of
all improbable COWS will help Offset
the extra expense of producing clean,
wholesome milk.

cAULlFLoWER EVER POPULAR
Grown to Some Extent Under Glass
for Winter and Spring Markets
Seed Imported From Europe.

Caulifower is given much attention
by truck farmers and to some extent
is grown under glass for winter ana
early spring markets. Field cultlva-
ton is in vogue generally, however,
and long after this crop is harvested
Oh the Atlantic coast. fresh caulifiower
may be seen in the big cities arriving
from California almost daily, thus
making this delicious vegetable avail
able large part of the year. Some
truck farmers grow as many as fifty or
sixty acres annually and ready for mar
ket in late summer and early autumn.
A large part of caulifiower seed Is
imported from Europe, and the war
makes the supply for another season
very uncertain. Denmark and Holland
produce large quantities of caulifiower
seed, but it is also grown in other Eu'
ropean countries, The most impor'
tant part Of caullflower cultivation is
the growing of the plants, says Orange
Judd Farmer. A heavy loan with a
gravelly subsoil Isl considered the most
favorable for this crop. Yet good
Yields are often secured on light,
sandy soil. Under glass, caulifiower
can be produced in eight weeks from
the growing of the seed, of course
commanding high prices; the young
plants are set when about four inches
high and between them in alternate
rows lettuce is planted, as these two
vegetables grow together with har'
mony, requiring much the same tenn
nprature

justice, so, unless you want your pup
to gain poor opinion of you be care
full when you punish him. Never
punish unless the pup can associate
the punishment with the offense, says
a writer in Outing. The circumstan-
tial evidence may be very strong, but
you had better wait and catch him
in the act.

Older Cities More Beautiful.

The prevalence of artistic ideas in
the city planning of past ages and in
the much less successful efforts of the
last generation can be explained by
the fact that the city-planning work
was done by either architects or land
scape architects, both Of whom were
mainly trained to see esthetic values
But during the nineteenth century
these artists have often been sup
planted by surveyors or civil engl
neers. This is one of the reasons to
explain t,le much greater success OF
artistic city planning in the past COM
pared with the newer efforts.

it useful to take puppies with me into

Individual and Communal Health.

The health of the community de-
pends upon the health of the citizens,
but the health of each individual also
depends in some measure-often in
large measure-upon that of other
members of the community. Health
of the individual is, therefore, a con-
dition that, generally speaking, can
be maintained only by combination
of individual and community effort,
and it's Importance is such that in the
activities of the city and OF the state
it should hold a prominent place

Pure Seed Is Necessary.

Careful fertilization, thorough and
repeated cultivation, first elements of
success for the farmer though they
are, cannot, of course, grow a good
crop from poor seed And of all the
influences that keep the farmers Of
this country from realizing the full
benefits OF their labor, inferior seed
is one OF the most powerful.

Double the Crop Yield.

The best authorities agree that the
total of the crops raised from seed in
the United States might be doubled
by improved methods of farming. To
do this would add s4,OO0,OO0,O00 to
$5,000,000,000 to the nations wealth
and the resources Of it's farm popula-
ton. And one of the most important
means to this end is the planting of
good seed.

Milk at REGULAR Times.

There is a marked value in doing
the milking at regular times. Those
who have made study of their COWS
know that COWS are very regular in
their habits. They go to the pasture
about such time each day, and they
come back with the same regularity.
