A GOOD WIFE.

"She was a good wife to me. A
good wife, God bless her." These
words were. spoken in trembling ac-
cents over a coffin lid. The woman
asleep there had borne the heat and
burden of life's long day, and no one
had ever heard her murmer; her hand
was quick to reach out in a helping
grasp to those who fell by the way
side; and her feet were swift on err
rands of mercy; the heart of the hus-
band had trusted her; he had left her
to long hours of solitude, while he
amused himself in scenes in which
she had no pleasure o part. Chill
dren had been born to them. She had
reared them almost alone-they were
gone! Her hand had ministered to
their wants. Then she had comfort
ed him, and sent him out strong and
whole-heartful while she stayed at
home and-cried. What can a wo-
man do but cry-and trust? Well,
she is at rest now. But she could not
die until she had promised to "bear
up" and not to fret, but to remember
how happy they had been. They?
Yes, it is even so. For she was blest
in giving, and he in receiving. 1t was
an equal partnership after all. "She
was a good wife to me-" Oh man!
man! why not have told her so, when
her ears we're not dulled by death?

A SOFT ANSWER.

Love is often blotted out by a hard
answer. What a dream of happiness
our home lives would be if every an
cry retort could give peace to a soft
answer. The divorce problem would
not be agitated as it is today, if a
soft answer had prevailed. The an
CRY spirits of children are not curbed
in their infancy but are allowed
growth. Without doubt it is a diff
cult problem and therefore requires
great strength of endeavor to solve
the best mode of managing the indi-
viduality of each child. Let us all
strive to attain that great control over
our spirits, which will enable US to
give a soft answer in return for an
angry taunt. Then when this goal of
perfection is reached, how peaceful
and happy our influence in our jour
ney through life.

SEEDING AND CARE OF HOT.
BEDS.

When the hot-bed is ready to re-
ceive the seed, take a thin board 3
inches shorter than the bed is wide
and give it a narrow edge. Work this
edge back and forth in the soil until
an average depth of 3-8 of an inch is
secured; then work it sidewise to
broaden the row. The rows should be
placed A inches apart, taking care not
to have any of the rows directly under
the cross piece. This advice is given
by the Extension Specialist in veget-
able growing at the New Jersey Elk
pertinent Station.
Further directions by this expert
for the seeding and care of hot-beds
may be summarized as follows: Sow
the seed by hand. A little practice
makes perfect. Drop from rs to 100
seeds per running foot. Cover this
with the back of a garden rake.
When the soil is again leveled off it
may be gently tapped by holding the
handle of the rake perpendicular and
allowing it to drop from an altitude
of about 3 inches. This little opera
ton induces quick termination.
Special emphasis is to be laid on
the next step. Place a thermometer
in the bed, then put on the sash. Dur
ing cold spells put the mats on just
before the sun goes down, that is, be-
fore the bed has cooled off. In this
way the bed will remain warm during
the night.
Two points are to be kept in mind
with regard to the care of the bed:
~ Do not water too much. Water
ing should be done in the morning of
a warm day. This avoids chilling the
plants and gives them an opportunity
to dry off quickly. (2) When the sun
strikes the bed in the morning it soon
becomes very hot and plants will be
scalded unless ventilation is provided.
To ventilate, place a small block under
the side of the sash away from the
wind, thus avoiding a draft on the
plants. Precaution should be taken
that the blocks are not high enough
to allow the entrance of cats or chick
ems.
Tomatoes and early cabbage plants
should be kept cool, but peppers and
especially egg plants need warmth.

FOR THE WINDOW BOX

Nothing so softens and beauties
a stiff looking house-or any other
kind, for that matter-as window
boxes.
Prepare them now. Make a box
eight inches deep and ten inches
wide. Use only rich black soil to fill
it. A bucket of fertilizer worked into
the soil will improve it.
Fill the box level full and then let
it stand for a week. Then stir up the
soil to loosen it, and plant.
Keep window garden clean. Re-
move dead leaves, scrub pots, shower
foliage. Keep window glass clean.
Ferns should be planted in the rear
of the box. Between them place ge-
raniums, red or pink preferred.
In the front of these plant a row of
purple ageratum seed and for good
measure mix in a few of candytuft.
For a front row, plant sweet alys-
sum. The alyssum will fall over the
front of the box and form a pretty
border.
Give the plants plenty of room to
grow and they will make a better APP
pearance than many in one box, stunt
ed for lack of room.
For a large porch, with plenty of
room, a few dwarf nasturtiums may
take the place of the sweet alyssum.
Other flowers suitable for boxes are
pinks, pansies and marigolds and low
growing plants.
When the plants, raised from seeds,
are an inch high, thin them out to
about two inches apart.
The box should be watered daily,
morning and evening, especially if it
is exposed to the sun all day.
All the hardy Towering shrubs may
be started by roofing cuttings, and
this should be done early this month
that the plants may be well establish
ed by cold weather. Such plants
started from cuttings will bloom much
mor quickly than those from seeds.
Shower, spray, dip, wash, scrub; do
any and all these things to keep down
the insect enemies. Don't let bugs
pasture on your plants.

RURAL CHURCH PROBLEMS

An indication of the interest which
is being manifested at the present
time in the problem of the rural
church in its relation to the commun-
ity life was furnished in a recent Ru-
raj Church and Community Confer
ence held under the auspices of the
Monmouth County Farm Bureau at
Freehold. N. J.. This conference
brought together a representative
gathering of ministers and laymen
from surrounding farms and nearby
communities.
Ways and means whereby the coun-
try church may be made a more po-
cial affairs in the country occupied
the thoughts of those who attended
and participated in the meeting.
A member of the Extension Divi-
sion of the New Jersey Experiment
Station, ministers prominent in COM
munity work, and laymen were in at
tendance, to give addresses or engage
in discussions of the subject in mind.
Monmouth County is the largest in
the State and has more farms than
any other, but other counties have
to meet similar problems in a smaller
way. In any rural section the church
must necessarily be composed of
members following, in a large meas
ure. agricultural pursuits. Anything
which can be done to make the church
a real live factor in the community
is worthy of earnest and sincere con-
~sideration, and conferences similar to
the one held in Monmouth County
should be encouraged in other sec
tions.
The New Jersey Experiment Sta
ton is especially interested in any To-
cal movements looking to the better
ment of rural life conditions in view
of the annual Rural Life Day which
it inaugurated at it's Farmers Week
last December. The trend of the
times is toward more efficient service
in all lines of work and the country
church is only sharing in the general
drift of events in it's awakening to fu-
ture possibilities.
The conference mentioned was held
under the auspices of the Office of
Farm Demonstration in Monmouth
County-the county agency of the
New Jersey Experiment Station and
the U. S. Department of Agriculture.

HOPE.

Hope is an anchor to the soul, both
sure and ~steadfast, that will steady
our frail bark while sailing over the
ocean of life and that will enable us
to outride the storms of time-a hope
that reaches from earth to heaven.
The hope is based on faith in the i'm
maculate Redeemer and keeps our
earthly hopes from running riot into
forbidden paths. The cable of this
hope cannot be ~sundered until death
cuts the gordian knot and lets the
prisoner go free. To live without it
is blind infatuation-to die without
it, eternal ruin.

LITTLE HINTS ABOUT DUCKS.
Necessary That Quarters Be Dry at
All Times-YOung Fowls Require
Fairly Damp Mash.

Although ducks will spend a great
deal of time in the water if it is al
ways accessible, when they return to
their quarters they require a perfect
ly dry place.
The straw or litter, which should
always be cut fine, must be removed
as soon as it becomes damp or filthy.
Care in this matter will prevent weak
ness of the legs and other troubles.
Do not feed young ducks dry food.
They require a fairly damp mash I'M
til they are about a month old. The
first few meals will consist of stale
bread, moistened with a little milk
and mixed with a very small portion
of fine grit.
After the fifth or sixth day a little
finely chopped, we'll cooked meat
should be added to the duckling's ra-
tions.

SURPLUS FEED MAKES EGGS
Hens Require Balanced Ration to Be
Well Fed-Winter Layer Brings
the Profits.

Farmers do not realize that their
f1ocks of hens should be as carefully
fed and cared for as any other stock
on their place. Most farm foeks are
allowed to rustic for most of their liv-
ing, and if they do not get it, they
suffer.
Hens will first apply the feed pro-
vided to keeping them in good, strong,
healthy condition, and then, if there is
a surplus, they will use it to supply
eggs. Only in the spring, when the
reproductive instinct is predominant,
will they lay under other conditions.
The wise farmer realizes this and
feeds his hens all they will eat at all
times.
There is another thing to take into
consideration. We can practically
starve stock with plenty of food ham
dy. Feed a man on any food con-
soon be practically starving for some
which his body requires. 1t is the
same way with the hens. They re-
quire a balanced ration to really be
well fed. Corn, wheat, oats, kafir
all contain elements in different pro-
portions, and if they r a~lternated,
and then a liberal supply of meat
meal, alfalfa meal and green stuff or
vegetables are given them, they do
not lack any element needed. The re-
suit is they are happy, c%ontented,
healthy, and will lay the year round
if they are of the right breeds. 1t is
the year-round hen that pays. Some
hens will have larger records than
others that will not be nearly as
profitable, for they do their laying
when eggs are lower in price. The
winter layer brings the profits.
