from heart-broken mother whose con-
science was tOrturing her for having
imposed the care Of younger child upon
a little daughter who had recently died
She wrote
Dear Aunt Chatty: Please use part
OF this letter to warn other mothers not
to burden their children with the care OF
the baby as did my little Nellie. Now
that she is gone I realized that I pun
ished her by making her take care Of
her little sister many hours in the day
when she should have been out at play.
And all because / was too lazy TO at
tend to my business myself She used
to ask me she could run out with
the other children and often and often
l would not let her go because / wanted
to do something and did not want to be
bothered with the baby. I believe she
would have been alive today il l had
treated her right"
l am giving you part OF her letter Just
as she wrote IL because some mothers do
make mistakes of that kind without
thinking whether how fair IL IS to the
little mothers" The time will come
soon enough when the poor little backs
will have burdens enough Of their own
to bear without having our loads forced
upon them now.

Do You Eat Enough Hard Food.
BY FRANCES MARSHALL.

Do you eat enough hard food?
If you don't eat plenty of food that
gives bulk your diet is not properly plan
ned. For bulk is necessary to perfect
physical condition. 1t is good both for
the teeth and for the digestion.
1t would be rather interesting to COM
pare a dinner such as some of us eat
perhaps eight times out OF nine with the
sort OF dinner primitive man ate. To be
sure, primitive man eventually lost his
teeth, and he had no dentist to replace
them. But primitive man probably had
a very good digestion, and while he was
young his teeth probably were much
stronger and soundeE than ours are.
Without dentists, where would We be
today?
Here is a dinner which is fairly usual
a soup-requires no work from the teeth
and gives no bulk; white bread, which is
soft and which gives no bulk to speak
of; meat of some sort. mashed potatoes
and a vegetable, perhaps a salad, and a
dessert of custard or gelatine.
Now in such a meal there is very little
bulk-very little waste material. 1t may
be nourishing. it may be appetizing, but
1t does lack the bulk that every meal
ought to have.
Whole wheat bread gives bulk. Any of
the bran products do, and so do the
coarser cereals, cooked and uncooked
Cabbage and other OF the coarser vege-
tables give bulk.
And in the meal quoted there is very
little work for the teeth. Zwieback sub
stituted for the bread would give the
teeth a little healthy work. Celery would
also give the teeth something to do And
certain sorts OF dessert, made of raw
fruit or a rather hard baked pudding,
could also give more hardness to the
meal.

RECORD ON TOBOGGAN
Louisville Team Lost TWenty-Six
Straight Contests.
Colonies Were Of Old Major League
American observation-disclosures Los
inq Streak Ever Made in
Baseball History.

There is one baseball record that no
club is anxious to overturn. and which
everybody concerned will be glad to
let stand until the end of time. That
Is the record of consecutive defeats,
hung up in 1889 by the Louisville club
of the old major league American as
ISOLATION.
The string was finally broken by a
to 3 victory over the st. Louis team,
which put an end to the worst losing
streak the game has ever known. UP
to the time of the victory over st.
Louis the Colonies had lost 26 games
in row, and the few wavering sup
porters of the club were on the verge
of abandoning all hope that the team
would ever win q game.
The dubious feat of the Louisville
club remains, and may always remain,
the major league record. Only once
has 1t been equaled in a minor league,
and it has never been surpassed in
any professional circuit. In 1913 the
MERIDIAN (Miss.) club of the Cotton
States league was nicked for 20 con-
secutive wallOps, and had the worlds
record in sight when the team fell
down and won a game.
The record losing streak of the Ma
tiOnal league was pulled off in 1890.
the year of the Brotherhood war, when
the Pittsburgh club dropped % games
in row. The whole bunch of Smoky
City players went over to the Players
league and Guy Hecker, the new man
ager, had to build practically new
team, getting his material where he
could. After the long losing streak
the fans deserted the sinking ship and
gave their support to the Players
league team, which included most of
the old Pittsburgh favOrites.
Games were transferred to other
cities and even to neighboring towns
in Pennsylvania and Ohio and West
Virginia. The club also set up an
other record that year by losing three
games in day.
The American league losing streak
record of 20 games was set up by
Boston in 1906. Jimmy Collins, who
managed the Red Sox from the first,
and who had kept the club in the first
division and won two pennants prior
to the fatal year, was charged by the
Boston fans with neglecting his duties,
and the veterans of the outfit seemed
to go all to pieces. AS q result BOs-
ton finished the season in the cellar,
losing 105 games and winning only 40.

| 2. Unless the ground is disked early
and a consequent firing" of the corn
during the latter part Of July and Au-
gust, especially in dry seasons.
3. The fall blowing does not give as
good an opportunity to spread manure
during the late summer and through
the winter.
The soils department of the Iowa
State college has conducted many eX-
periments with fall and spring blowing
| in different parts of Iowa, and in every
case the yield of corn was greater on
the fall blowing than on the spring
blowing.
The mistake is commonly made of
leaving the fall-plowed ground without
disking until time to plant. The ground
has become packed by snow and rain
and should be disked or narrowed as
soon as the oat seeding is over. This
will conserve the moisture and lessen
the firing of the corn in August, so
common to fall blowing.
Ground that is very rolling and like
ly to wash should not be plowed in the
fall.
Late Planting Bad.
One of the most serious losses to the
corn crop every year is due to late
planting. Experiments show that late
planted corn seldom yields as much as
that planted earlier, and the quality is
inferior. The ground becomes hard
and out of condition, the weeds have

PREPARING SOIL FOR CORN

There are no "ironclad" rules which
may be followed blindly for the grow
ing of corn any more than in other
farm work.
There is no one best method suited
to all sections or to the different soils
of a section nor even to the different
fields of the same farm. Frequently
two very different methods may give
equally good results.
Have good ground, do the work on
time, and do it thoroughly" should be
the motto of every corn grower.
Nothing can make up for poor
ground. Too many are trying to raise
corn on old "wOrn-out" ground that
has produced corn, oats and wheat for
years. l met man at an institute in
Illinois who said in all seriousness that
he w.s satisfied the seasons were less
favorable for growing corn than they
used to be, as he could get no such
crops as he used to raise. Inquiry de-
velOped that he had grown corn for II
years in succession on the same piece
of ground. No wonder the seasons
were becoming less favorable"
Let us remember that it was but a
few years ago that the farms of the
corn belt were broken from the virgin
soil, and that because we have been
able to crop the ground continuously in
the past, is no assurance that we may
continue to do so in the future with

REBEL M'TIGUE is BOOSTED
Buck Freeman, OId-Time SIugger of
Boston Americans, Hands Ex.Tiger
Large Bouquet.

Buck Freeman, one-time slugger with
the Boston Americans, and now umpir-
ing in the international league, comes
to bat with the assertion that Rebel
McTigue, former Brave and Tiger
hurler, but at present pitching for the
Toronto Leafs, has more stuff than
any other pitcher he ever worked be-
hind.
McTigue, who, despite a good record
on the spring training trip, was turned
back to Toronto by Manager Jennings
after five innings of big-league ball, is
making quite a record in the minor Or
ganizatiOn.
With sixth-place club, the lengthy
southpaw has registered six wins, four
defeats, one tie game and twice hurled
one-hit shutouts, one against Rochester
on May 80 and the other against Provi-
dence, league leaders. In each of the
above contests the hits were of the de-
ddedly fluke variety, and the slow
roller to the infield which spoiled
perfect record in Rochester on Me-
mortal day came after two men had
been retired in the ninth inning.
The pitcher twirled three times in
one week, winning all three of the con-
tests, two of which were shutouts, be-

DROPPING OF MIDDLE NAMES
A Two-PIy Title Found to Be More
Convenient Socially, Morally and
Financially.

This is the day of the two-eylinder
name which fact has been proved by
cognomen connoisseurs who have
looked over every name at Harvard
and inspected the persons to whom the
names belong. They learned that
some extremely nice persons have no
middle names at all, and seem to get
on rather well without them.
1t is assumed that the ever-grow-
ing trend toward efficiency is to be
blamed for the dropping of diversified
names for it has long been understood
that person with a two-ply title need.
not be especially embarrassed about it.
In the course of wealthy mans life
ii means the writing of about 10000
900 useless words if he uses his mid
die name on checks and Endorsements,
and these things have got to be con-
sidered.
The Porcelain club at Harvard, the
most exclusive organization of its kind
in the country, proves this year the
failing value of middle names. There
are fifteen members this year, and but
five of them are burdened with excess
sive nomenclature.
OF course, George Washington and
Abraham Lincoln had no middle names,
but this evidence is considered as moth
ing at Harvard compared with the fact
that Theodore Roosevelt hasn't. That
one fact is almost enough to wreck the
complicated title system at the uni
versity.
