When marriage is a failure, Cupid

ables a man to forget judiciously.
Some people can eve find any

Plant Some Castor Beans.

Next year do not fail to plant a few
castor beans around the chicken yard,
as the large stalks produce a rather
large leaf, which supplies an abun-
dance of shade for the old and young
stock during the hot summer months.
Also plant plenty of sunf1owers, as
they make some shade and the seeds
make excellent feed.

ical work done in class is tried out in

The average family in the United
States is 4 p individuals. The ay-
erage income of this average family
is a little more than $500. Investi-

year. The management of the prac-
tice house is based on the foregoing.
Although four girls and a chaperone
live in the house the family unit of
AZ is taken as the basis, as the ex-
ira half individual equalizes the
problem of diet because of the lack
of man in the family. The income
basis is $1,000 per year.
Graduate students and girls from
the Senior Glass live in the house
The rent is $500 per year-met by
the College. Running expenses

planted in the early spring or in the
