HOW GOSPEL OF SAFETY"
MAKES WORKMEN EFFICIENT

Ida M. Tarbell is doing a new Sc
ries of articles for the American Mag
azine entitled "The Golden Rule in
Business"
In the January number she dis
cusses "The Gospel Of Safety" and
shows, by citing many specific eases,
Just what the new devices for pro-
tecting workmen from dangers have
accomplished. Miss Tarbell concludes
her articles with the following para
graphs:
"Ths reduction of suffering has an
excellent effect on the laboring body.
1t naturally increases the efficiency
and contentment Of the shop. The
men in the ranks recognize that they
have big part in producing results,
and they become proud of the work.
II is a wonderful lesson in the value
of cooperative effort, both for en-
ployer and employees. Moreover, it
shows how efforts may be made CO.
operative-something which both la
bor and capital have poorly under
stood.
"There is 10 point of the safety
work which makes a deeper impress
sion on the laborer and does more to
prevent suffering than the provisions
which are made generally now to give
first aid to the injured. They run
from a simple first aid-to the injured
kit to a fully equipped hospital with
nurses and doctors in attendance. At
the steel mills at Homestead | saw
recently an electric ambulance for re-
moving the injured at once to the hos
pital, which stands near the center of
a plant covering probably one hun
dred and fifty acres and employing
some ten thousand men at the terri
flying and at the best dangerous work
of making steel.
"The effect of all this equipment is
excellent; somebody cares. Under the
cid system nobody cared, or at least
such was the general impression"

ed to general farm crops" Besides,
the fact that there can be had at a
minutes notice a bountiful supply of
fresh, clean vegetables is a value that
cannot be reckoned in dollars and
cents.
The great question of keeping the
boy and girl on the farm would be
more than half solved if people would
only realize the important part the
vegetable garden plays in this regard.
1t is hardly likely that too much at
tention can be given the vegetables
for If there is a surplus of any kind
Of produce, a ready market may be
found for it in the nearby towns.
In locating the garden, the question
of its proximity to the house is of vast
Importance, for naturally most of the
work is done during spare moments
that could not be taken advantage Of
If the garden were located half mile
from the house. Too often it is the
case that all of the gathering and most
of the work is done by the farmers
wife. Even where the work is done by
man, the women of the household 90
back and forth between the house and
garden many times during the year
All these things tend TO add to the
work of the already overburdened
housewife, which condition could be
materially improved by exercising 2
little care and forethought in locating
the garden spot
The general lay of the land de-
termines to a considerable extent the
earliness of the garden crops. Well
drained land sloping gently to the
south or southeast is preferable for
the production of early vegetables.
Wind barriers, such as hills, woods,
hedges, buildings, etc, on the north
and northwest produce much the
same effect. If none of these are so
located that they can be taken ad-
vantage Of, a tight board fence will
answer the purpose, and at the same
time act as a safeguard against farm
animals and poultry Choose a loca-
ton that is we'll drained or bring it
TO this conditions after it has been
chosen. None of the vegetables will
tolerate wet feet" In many cases
it will pay a hundred per cent to tile
drain the garden.

METHOD OF TOMATO CULTURE
Plants for Fall Crop Should Be Set
Out During First Part Of July
Keep Out All Weeds.

From the LIST to the 18th of July is
the proper time TO set out the plants
for fruiting in September and October.
The Improved Queen, Livingston
Prize and Acme are the three popular
varieties for the retail market or for
home use. The ground should be
deeply plowed, narrowed and rolled
so as to be fine and mellow.
Run out the rows with the one-horse
pillow; run twice in each row. The fur
row should be at least six inches
deep. Put one-half forkful of rotted ma.
nure about three feet apart in the row
Spread one handful of some good bone
fertilizer over the manure, then mix
the two together.
Cover with about two inches of mel
low earth. Make low, fiat hills, just
even with the surface. Set one stout,
stocky plant in each hill; set the plant
deep, up to the first leaf If the wealth
er is hot and dry, fill the dibble hole
with water. set In the plant and draw
the earth close to the roots.
The next morning cover the plants
with two or three little bushes TO pre-
vent the sun from scorching the leaves
and drying out the moisture. Leave
the covering on until the plants start
to grow. Water late in the evening
If soil is dry.
As soon as plants start growth re
move the covering, run the cultivator
between the rows, going close to the
plants, then with the hoe draw the
mellow earth close up to the stems
Give frequent and thorough culture
throughout the season. Keep the soil
loose.
The early and second early plants
should be kept free of grass and
weeds Throw a furrow to the plants
before the vines commence to spread,
and with the hoe make a good bed of
mellow earth for the vines to rest on.
This bed of mellow soil will keep the
roots cool and prevent evaporation of
the moisture in the lower soil which
the vines need for the perfection Of

CBy Q. NJ. CLARK.)

The pleasure and profit to be de-.
rived from a good vegetable garden
Is a privilege enjoyed to it's fullest ex-
tent only by those leading a rural life
out strange to say, the average farmer
painfully fails to appreciate this rare
privilege. In fact in many cases he
neglects this opportunity to such a
pitiful extent that we are prone to
tnlnk that he, more than any other
person who pretends to have a garden
at all, needs to be urged to have. and
informed how to make and maintain
good vegetable garden. The farmer
USED TO large areas of general farm
crops feels that he is STOPPING from
his dignity or is wasting his time when
ne undertakes anything so small as he
lmaglnes the vegetable garden to be:
consequently. he plows it, perhaps
and leaves the planting and tiIling to
the women folks" AS a matter of
ract, there is not on the farm a piece
