PAYING SALARIES TO WIVES
Discussion Started In Periodical De-
voted to Women-Husband 10 the
Real ProvIder.

About the most foolish proposition
that has been advanced for some time
is the discussion now going on con-
cerping the payment OF salaries to
wives. The discussion started some
time ago in periodical devoted to
women, and it has been raging" ever
since, with now and then some good
soul advocating that the wife be paid
regular wages, and the household ex-
penses be apportioned properly-and q
lot more Of the same line.
The ideal home is the one where
the wife Is not bothered with finances,
where the husband is the provider-
and provides. In this ideal home the
wife knows the standard of living
which should be maintained, and the
husband Is not annoyed In any way
with apportioning the household ex-
penses. The wife has what she wants,
because she wants only what the fam
lily can afford. and the husband takes
care Of all expenditures, whether in
the way Of money outlay or by pay.
ing all bills promptly. In the ideal
home the question Of money is seldom
mentioned, for the reason that It does
not have to be mentioned. The hus-
band sees to 1t that the wife is amply
provided with funds.-Dayton News.

PREVENT LOSSES TO MANURE
Waste In United States Annually 10
Placed at $7o0, o0o, ooo-crop
Yields Increased.

It has been carefully estimated
that the value of farm manure wasted
in the United States annually is $780,
100000. This amount would build a
feet of 100 dreadnaughts or pave
100000 miles of highway each year
The wheat crop Of 1912 was estimated
at 730,000,000 bushels and allowing
one dollar for every bushel of wheat
for that year 1t is evident that the
waste from manure approximately
equals the value of our annual wheat
crop. Dean Alfred Vivian of the col
lege Of agriculture, Ohio State univer-
sity, Columbus, points out that ma
nure shed on every farm would pre-
vent the manure losses to a great ex-
tent. Such structure need only to
have a concrete floor and covering
which will prevent rains from leach
ing the manure as it does in the barn
yard. It should be connected with
the stables with litter carrier When
the manure cannot be hauled directly
to the fields its value will remain the
same by storing. Manure handled in
this manner has returned as high as So
per ton in increased crop yields.

GROWING CROP OF LETTUCE
Servings May Be Made Every Two
Weeks During Summer-RIcn
Light Soil ls Recommended,

Lettuce is pre-eminently the crop Of
all seasons. 1t can go into the ground
with the earliest radish In spring, or
with sowings every two weeks during
the summer. Using the cold frame in
winter, it is in its prime during every
month Of the year. A crop of lettuce
may be raised between the rows OF
cabbage or cauliflower.
Plants come on more quickly in a
rich, light soil. although clover ground
retards the tendency to run to seed.
We prefer to SOW in thin rows, rather
than mixing the seed with sand, says
a writer in an exchange. Avoid COW
ering deep. Thin the rows first to 6
inches, and later to IL. Small plants
may be transplanted early in the sea-
son by watering well few hours be-
fore, and supplying shade. For late
sowings, mark the ground In squares
a foot apart and put several seeds at
each intersection of lines. When the
plants are nicely started, weed out all
but the strongest in each clump, and
thus avoid the difficulty of transplant
ing in hot weather.

LIVE STOCK
T5 NOTES

No permanent system OF agriculture
has been devised which does not in
clude q reasonable amount of live
stock.
The grading Of wool begins on the
back Of the sheep.
Stock feeding combined with careful
handling of manure is always profit
able.
Cheap stock is never satisfactory to
buyer or seller.
Each newborn lamb should receive
its first meal from its own mother.
II q eve should lose her lamb, keep
her milking, as foster-mother.
ANY surplus in lamb or mutton will
find ready sale among the nearby
neighbors or in the nearby markets.
Be sure that all the colts and horses
that are to be turned in pasture are
free from insects.
Some farmers simply keep cattle
they do not raise them for Q profit.
Careful observation and selection
will help one to secure pigs of inher-
tied quality.
Give the sheep the highest and
driest pasture on the farm.
Pushing the lambs for rapid growth
is simply thrifty common sense.
Red clover and the hog seem to be
made for each other.

FEEDING sILAGE IN SUMMER
sIio With Its Supply Of SuccuIent Feed
Comes to Rescue Of Farmer When
Pastures Are Short.

Silage was at first considered a
winter feed, since it reduced the
amount of labor in hauling fodder dur
ing cold, stormy days and also provid.
ed feed that was palatable when
corn fodder and stalks would not be
relished. Now, however, silage is con-
sidered almost as much a summer
food as for use In winter feeding. Dur
ing the time of short pasture it takes
the place Of that succulence furnished
by fresh pasture grasses.
There Is rarely q season when we
do not have some dry weather, and
consequently a shortage in pasturage.
Very frequently there are times In the
spring and fall when one cannot de-
pend upon pastures. It is then that
the silo with its supply of fresh feed
comes to the rescue.

ORIGIN OF cuRFEW BELL
Merely Served as Warning to Cover
Fire In the Time Of William
the Conoueror.

So many towns ring the curfew bell
to warn the children that 8 o'clock
D. m. must find them safe in the home
nest, it is interesting to know that the
curfew bell originated in the time OF
William the Conqueror, says writer
in the Peoples Home Journal. A cur
few" was fire cover of metal. shaped
like a hood, with handle by which it
was lifted. It had an opening ON one
side, and was about ten inches In
height Because fires in early days
were made on large, open hearths, the
smoke escaping through a hole in the
roof, fire risk was great. It was or
dcred that every householder before
retiring must cover his fire with a
"couvre-feu," meaning cover the fire.
He scraped the embers together at the
back of the hearth, putting the cover
over them, the open part close against
the chimney.
A bell was rung in the market place,
at an early hour every night, as a sig
nal that people must extinguish their
fires and go to bed. The term cur
few was associated with the ringing
of the bell. But in William the Con
queror's time q curfew was nothing
more poetical than plain metal fire
extinguisher.

drop back in place.
This is repeated until the wheel is
tight. Wheels should be treated to q

FOR SPRAYING APPLE TREES
Best Formula 10 Concentrated Lime
Sulphur-Apply for Cooling Moth
About August First.

The best formulas for spraying ap-
pie trees and any other fruit trees ex-
cept the peach, is concentrated lime
sulphur at the strength Of one to forty
for apples and one to fifty for the other
fruits, and two and a half pounds of
arsenate Of lead. The first spraying
should be made just as the pink Of the
blossom shows. This should be fol-
lowed by another application as the
blossom petals are dropping. In about
two weeks the trees should be sprayed
again, and winter varieties of apples
should have another application for
the second brood of codling moth
about the first of August.
All fruit trees except the peach
should receive the first three applica-
tons. Plums ahould receive a spray
ing after that at intervals OF two
weeks, until within about month of
ripening time. No fruit should be
sprayed within a month of ripening
time, because sufficient time should be
allowed for the removal of all traces
of the spray material by the weather
before the fruit is harvested.

Of Good Shipping Sorts.
ening the field to which the tomato IL
adapted. varieties present other i'm
portant differences manifested chiefly
In the fruit.
Early ripening sorts are frequently
irregular in shape, have comparatively
thin walls. large seed cavities and
numerous seeds. The fruit Ia apt to
color and ripen unevently, remaining
green around the stem, or to contain
hard. green core. Later-ripening
sorts. while not all superior to the
others, have as a rule thicker and
firmer walls. smaller seed cavities and
few seeds.
Owing to the fact that in canned
tomatoes it is difficult for the average
consumer to note any deficiencies in
the appearance Of the original fruit,
many labor under the delusion that
any variety will answer for this pur-
pose. This is a mistaken idea, as
quality In canned goods is now an i'm
portant factor, and it is quite as neces-
sary that a good quality of product
should be used for canning as for
growing for the early or general mar
ket, although from the field side it is
natural that tonnage should be the
primary consideration.
In the matter of varieties, too much
dependence should be placed upon
the name or upon the fact that a
neighboring farmer secures good re-
suits from a given variety There are
80 many variations in the character of
soils, even in the same locality, which
exert an influence upon the size and
quality of crops that the best variety
Is usually one that is, in part at least,
developed by the individual grower
The main point is to select varieties
that produce large, smooth, cold
fruits, with thick walls, small seed
cavities and few seeds.
