CROP ESTIMATES ACCURATE
Uncle Sans Reports, Foreeasting
Yields of Various Products, Neees-
states Big Organization.

Nearly two million schedules are
handled each year in the bureau of
crop estimates of the United States
department of agriculture in making
up the government monthly crop re-
ports, according to the annual repOrt
OF the chief of Uncle Sans bureau of
crop estimates. Nearly 100000 names
are on the voluntary crOp-reporting
lists; A paid agents are constantly
making personal investigations, one
agent covering state; and force of
1O5 clerks is employed in Washington
to handle the large number of reports
from the vOlaI rary crop reporters and
to keep records of crop information of
this and foreign countries.
The work of crop reporting has been
so improved and systemati1ed that es-
Inmates of production of important
products can be made with a close de-
gree Of accuracy. Thus the cotton
crop estimate of 1915 was only three
teHths of per cent less than the
amount actually ginned, as reported
by the census after the close Of the

and they even offer you a good imita-
ton of expression" 1t is not difficult
to teach ordinary children to read at a
very early age. 1t is not difficult to
have them read great deal and to
reproduce much of what they read. But
what is the use of all this? The as
sumption is that the more the child
reads the more he will remember, and
the more he remembers the better off
he is.
The facts Of the child's development,
however, are against the forcing sys-
TEN of education. We can make a
child reproduce beautiful passages
from our best authors" long before
we can give him an inkling of what
the authors are talking about. The
child may read about passions and in
trigue, but he gets only wOrdG and
high-sOupding phrases. We may keep
the child at our side and fill him up
with a thousand facts of history and
enough other words to qualify him for
three or four grades ahead of his
years. But this learning does not add
to the child's power. because it has no
real meaning to hint is not con-

TWINE IS MADE FROM PAPER
Experiments Made by Uncle Sans
Experts in Forest Products Labra-
tory Prove Success.

That wrapping twines which give
thorough satisfaction can be made
from paper has been demonstrated by
experiments made by Uncle Sans for
est products laboratory at Madison,
Wis. Several hundred packages, each
containing a medium-sized book, were
wrapped and fastened with the light
est weight paper twine and were
mailed to various points throughout
the United States. Reports show that
practically every package was received
in good order and that in no case was
there any damage which could be
charged as a fault of the twine.
III making twine the paper is cut
into narrow strips which are then
twisted tightly to form a cord. The
strength of the twine depends upon
the character of the paper used and
the process of treatment. 1t is well
adapted to a number of purposes, but
the fOresters say that as yet no salts
factory means has been found for pro-
tecting paper twine from the action of
water, and it should not be used where
it will be exposed to moisture.

TRAINING TODAYS
BOYS AND GIRLS
What the Little Ones Should
Learn, and How.
FORCING SYSTEM is WRONG
Differences Between information,
knowledge and Wisdom, and the
Value Of Experience as a
Teacher Of Children.
BY sIDoNIE M. eRuENsERe.

Is IT not true that every parent
l wishes to give his children the full
benefit Of all the accumulated wisdom
Of the past7 And 1t is quite natural
for parents to do so, since they are
old enough to realize how wasteful 1t
Is for the child to get all his expert
ence at first hand. To learn, and learn,
and learn, while children are still
young and capable Of learning; to
learn while they are still young and
quite incapable of doing anything
else worth while-that would seem to
be the ideal life for children. Yes,
by all means, have the children learn.
But learn what? And learn how?
These questions do not seem to have
received quite so much attention as
they really deserve. We have been
so Overawed by the vastness of the
worlds learning, and we have been so
conscious of the fact that the heap is
constantly growing, that we have al
lowed ourselves to look upon the
knowledge of the ancients as a sacred
treasury that must be preserved at all
cost, and that must be injected into
children to the limit of their capaci-
ties.
Without in any way disparaging the
value of accumulated experience, it is
fair to ask whether we have been al
together wise in our pursuit of learn
Ing-fOr the children's sake. Is it
not true that we have too readily ac-
cepted the written word as something
worth while in itself? Have we not
too commonly confused information
with knowledge, and knowledge with
wisdom?
In recent years there seems to have
been a wave of frantic fear among
many conscientious parents that the
prevailing methods of instruction are
too slow to give the children all of the
needed learning. Or perhaps it has
been keen realization of the tremen-
dOus store that has to be gathered in
few short years. At any rate there
uaS Deen an eager searching for
method of filling the children's knOwl-
edge reservoirs more expeditiously
and more cOmpactly. So we have the
monstrOus sight of a three-year-Old girl
reading and of a six-year-Old COM
posing poetry.
1t is not to be denied that the world
Is quite full of a number of things,
many of which are worth understand
ing. 1t is also true that If you catch
a child young you may get more into
him before he escapes than you could
If you delayed your capture. But just
what good does it do child of eight
to 'read Shakespeare"-as many chill
dren of eight have done? OF course,

Sugar Beet Industry Grows.

States indicate production of 91S.SOO

the sugar production exceeds the high

If every wife who is trying to cure
her husband and every husband who
is trying to cure his wife would stop
the operation, and all the husbands
would devote their energies to curing
themselves and all wives devote their
energies to curing themselves, the
homes would be a great deal happier
than they are today. There are scOld-
ing wives who are bending all their en-
ergies to the task of curing their hus-
hands Of habits far less detrimental
to the happiness Of the home than the
habit of scOlding. There are husbands
who have set themselves the task Of

much less consequence than the in

tiny people may have a hand in the
cake making. Prepare the small sur
prises to drop into the cake, or get
ting the nuts ready. 1t is not always
convenient to have the children help,
but 1t is such happy time for them
that they should not be denied. Angel
or sponge cake should be the cakes
most commonly served to children.
MoIasses candy.-Thls is one of the
wholesome candies which we are safe
in giving children. Place in a granite
kettle one cupful Of New Orleans mo-
lasses, one and One-half cupfuls of
granulated sugar, two tablespOOnfuls
of butter, half a cupful of milk. Let
this mixture boil until it forms hard
ball in water. take from the fire, add
One-half teaspOOnful of baking soda
and one tablespoonful Of lemon ex-
tract. Turn out on buttered platter
or marble slab and when cool enough,
pull. Do not stir while the candy is
boiling.
Sandwiches to serve to children
should be very plain, with a simple
easily-digested filling.
Birthday Cake.-One birthday cake
was so beautiful that it will serve as
a model for many more happy little
people. Bake an angel cake in tube
pan, frost with white icing and in the
center place a bunch of pink sweet
peas. The cake was placed on a
board covered with large lace paper
dolly and encircled with pink sweet
peas and pink candles. While the
candles burned, the little guests ex-
pressed their good wishes to the own
er of the birthday.
Walnuts that have been emptied Of
their meats filled with some little gift
and glued together, will always de-
light the heart of little child. Tiny
dolls, bits of candy, small china an
imals and various things may be used
for filling.

strips of pimentOs and shredded al
mOnds.
Frozen Cheese saIad.-Beat a
cheese with a fourth of a cupful of
cream, season with paprika, salt and
teaSpOOnful of worcestershire sauce.
Put in a small pail and pack in ice
and salt for four hours. Serve, cut in
small squares on lettuce leaves with
French dressing.
Venison Steak.-Lay the steak in a
mixture of two tablespOOnfuIs of oil,
one of vinegar, salt, pepper and dash
of cayenne. Let it lay in this an hour,
turning often, then brOil over Goals, or
pan brOil in a very hot. lightly creased
frying pan.
Cranberry Ice.-Wash a quart of
cranberries. Cook in a pint of water
five or six minutes. Strain through a
cheeseclOth, add a pint of sugar and
cook until the sugar is dissolved, stir
ring well. When cool add the juice of
two lemons and freeze to a mush.
Serve with the turkey.
Chicken Fritters.-Put pieces of cold
roast chicken in a French dressing,
adding tablespoonful of grated onion
let it stand an hour, drain and dip in
fritter batter and fry in deep fat.
Serve hot with celery salad.
Pears With onions.-Drain and heat
a can of pears, cook small onions un-
til tender. then cut in halves and lay
in a dish the cut side down, pour over
the peas which have been seasoned
and dressed with thin cream sauce.
Lettuce and Roquefort SaIad.-Ar-
range head lettuce on plates and
sprinkle over bits of rOQuefort, third
of a cup to a small head of lettuce.
Rub a bowl with the cut side of
Glove of garlic, add half teaspoOnful
each of salt and papriAa. then four ta-
blespOOnfuls of chill sauce; mix thor
Oughly and beat in a half cupful Of
olive oil, and two tablespOOnfuls Of
vinegar. Pour over the lettuce and
cheese and serve well chilled.
Chicken cooked with creamed sauce
and served with biscuits is made more
delicious by the addition of half cup
full Of chopped ripe olives.
