have happened a few years ago. The
other day. for instance, a full sized
ship fed in terror from a life-boat.
Sounds unreasonable but the facts
speak for themselves and the evidence
in the case cannot be disputed.
We aaye all heard Of man fleeing
from his shadow but whoever, in
years gone by, read or heard OF a big
ccean-going vessel fleeing from a
harmless lifebOat. In fact the best
secret Of the flight explains the my
stery. The ships captain mistook
the life-boat for a German submarine!
To the ordinary man the action of
this captain in giving wide berth to
the harmless little boat was cowardly.
He was as bad or worse than the man
who lied from his shadow. But let US
think a moment Who among the
readers Of this has not fed from a
shadow?' Even now many are aeeing
from shadows
The shadows Of death is perhaps one
OF the most common forms from which
human beings are yainly trying to cs-
cape. Thousands Of good Christian
people daily bow their heads in prayer
and profess to be ready to enter into
the joys Of the life beyond the grave.
Yet, when the shadow OF death draws
about them. they fight desperately,
frantically AT times to cling onto that
life which is but trouble after trouble.
On the other hand we have known
strong men to seek death itself rather
than live in the shadow of pain and
suffering. The suicide route has trans
ported many souls from this sphere to
the worlds across the dark river. Men
nave fed from shadows almost since
the beginning OF the world. Even
Adam, when he realized that he had
sinned, fed from the shadow Of the
wrath OF God
Would it not be well for us to pause
at times in our mad flight and look our
shadows. fear.essly in the face? Why
should we fear death if we expect to
leave this earth for better and hap.
pier place? Why should we flee from
pain when we know that suffering
must be endured. Why should we flee
ftom the many shadows which daily
haunt US on all sides. Better to stand
and face them as they come

FACTORS IN PLANS
FOR CLEARING LAND
Suggestions Offered for Cleaning
Up and Developing Farm on
Economical Lines.
tBy NJ. ]. THOMPSON, Minnesota Ex-
pertinent Station.)

(By NJ. j. THOMPSON, Minnesota Ex-
pertinent Station)
The high cost of labor and the abb
normal cost of dynamite are to be add
ed to the constant factors that call for
consideration in development plans for
cutover lands this year.
A common practice is to cut oy sr a
lot of land and then let a part Of it
grow up to brush a second time. This
Is, Of course, expensive and useless.
Six or seven pounds of grass seed
clover and timothy mixed-should be
sown on the land and worked in with
a spring-tooth harrow.
On the other hand, an extreme ex-
penditure OF capital and labor on a CIV
en- area to get 1t into a crop is also
being followed for future development.
Assuming that delayed clearings are
usually cheaper. this plan works well.
A tract Of few acres easily cleared,
well drained and fairly well located,
that under average summer conditions
will give a maximum crop with a min
imum of risk and investment to put it
in shape, is selected and put into
crops. A second area, possibly twice
as large, is brushed and seeded to
grasses. The first tract supplies the
immediate requirements for foodstuffs
and income. The second supplies pas
ture and hay crop. and a delayed
clearing. One gets certain pasture
and forage crops with cheapcning
of the final clearing.
BY cleaning up an additional area
annually in similar way the farm is
developed on most economical lines.

FORAGE CROPS BEST
FOR GROWING PIGS
Expert of Kansas Agricultural
College Advocates Type Of
Feed to Produce Pork.

Spring pigs fed on good forage
crops will make five times as much
profit as those fed in dry lots" accord
ing to Ray A. Gatewood. instructor
in animal husbandry In the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
THE cost of 100 pounds Of gain on
young pigs with corn at SO cents a
bushel and such forage crops as al
falfa. rape. and clover. runs from
$2.SS to 1896: with older hogs from
$4.23 to $5.3l.
The accredited gain in pork to an
acre OF forage varies, depending upon
the crop, the age Of the hog and the
amount of grain fed. An acre of
sweet clover with corn at SO cents and
hogs at S. a hundred netted $42.O7;
rape, $3.50; alfalfa, $65.90: and q
combination Of oats. peas and rape,
$64.GO.
"Of all forage crops, alfalfa Is the
great permanent crop, while rape is
the emergency crop, and green rye the
fall and early spring crop. The ideal
forage crop should show adaptability
to soil and climate, permanency,
palatability. reasonable cost OF plant
ing. and good pasture at any time
during the growing season. Alfalfa.
clover and rape have most of these
qualities

tPrepared hy the United States Depart
ment of AgricultuTeD
Farmers live stock shipping asso-
Citations have proved so successful
that. although the first was not formed
until 1908. the department of agricul-
ture now has list of approximately
500 that are shipping stock in coop
erative way. About two hundred OF
these are III Minnesota. where the
movement started. and the remainder
chiefly in the middle West.
The main purpose of these assoCia'
tions is to enable their members to
ship in carload lots to the central mar
kets instead Of being more less at the
mercy of local buyers in disposing OF
a few animals from time to time. The
fact that no capital is required for the
organization of such an association.
says new publication of the depart
ment, Farmers Bulletin us, which
deals with this subject, makes these
associations possible in communities
in which more complicated forms OF
cooperation would not succeed. The
bulletin. however, points out that such
associations are scarcely practicable
In regions where there Is so much
live stock that 1t is generally mar
keted in carload lots under any cir
cumstances. or where there is so little
that the association has practically
nothing with which to work.
To organize such an association 1t
IL necessary only for the farmers Of
the community to meet together adopt
simple constitution and bylaws, a
sample of which is given in the bull
1etin already mentioned. to elect Off
GERS, and. in turn. for them to appoint
manager. 1t Is recommended, al
though It is not absolutely necessary.
that the organization incorporate.
This can be done at nominal cost
usually not more than $40. For this
small expenditure OF trouble and
money the association usually enables
the farmer to market his stock when
1t is ready instead of compelling him
to wait until the local shipper is ready
to buy It. He obtains for himself the
benefits of the cheaper carload trans
portation, and the shipments Of the
association realize for the owner the

In planning negligees one must con-
slider just what purposes they are to
serve, and choose the materials and
style accordingly. The dressiest ones
of today are worn over petticoats, en-
pire slips, or harem trousers made of
silk or satin, and are long coats OF
thin materials like chiffon or crepe
or organdie or printed voile) lace and
ribbon trimmed. The garment to be
worn under them is Of equal impor-
tance and often serves no other pur-
pose than to complete the negligee.
The most practical of elegant neg
ligees are those made Of thin wash
fabrics elaborated with dainty laces
and embroidery. to be worn over silk
petticoats or lace-trimmed skirts
Fine plain white goods in all the sheer
and dainty weaves. are used for max
ing them. They are much trimmed
with lingerie lace and hand needle
work on the body, and skirts open
down the front with band or wide
tucks about the bottom.

PROHIBITION PROHIBITS.

You cannot convince the manage

ates at Knoxville. Ia, that prohibition
does not prohibit. They have the best
possible proof that 1t does. According
to the report of the county auditor
since January | the number of pa
tients sent to the hospital has been
dwindling until at present there are
just half as many patients as there
were year ago. Even before the
state prohibitory law went into effect,
the fact that Des Moines was without
saloons tended to cut down the alco-
holic patients.
There were 2s patients during the
last quarter of 1915 as compared with
SO in the same period of 1914, and
since the first of this year the number
hal decreased still more.

manager when. where, and in such
quantities as they say they will. In
some associations fixed sum OF
money is exacted from a shipper for
failure to deliver stock to the mana
ger as agreed. In every case the
amount to be exacted should be rea-
sonable and should fairly represent
the actual loss which 1t is estimated
the association will suffer as the re-
suit OF nondelivery. The provision for
liQuidated damage Is proper. because
the manager must arrange for GER

1t is not used. the expense to those
who do ship is proportionately greater.

market price OF his stock less the ac-
tual cost OF marketing. In particu-
lar. it has been found that when thin
stock, calves or lambs are sold in
small numbers. the local price T. usual
ly very low. 1t Is on this class OF
stock that the associations have been
able to save their members the most
money.
In order to avoid misunderstanding,
it is important that all stock be
marked at the shipping point. This
precaution prevents disputes in re-
gard to shrinkage and dockage and as
sists in making adjustments in case of
loss or damage in transit. There are
three common methods OF marking.
Numbers or other characters may be
clipped in some conspicuous part OF
the animal. paint may be employed. or
numbered ear tags used. The last
method is the least frequent because
1t is somewhat difficult at the stock
yards to get close enough to the ami
NAL to see the number on the tag. II
the second method is adopted. ordi-
nary paint is undesirable, especially
for hogs, as It does not dry readily
enough to prevent smearing.. This
difficulty may be overcome by using
paint containing about one-fourth var
nish. In the case Of sheep, however,
painting is Objectionable because the
marks will not scour out and wool
manufacturers object to them, and
branding fluid, therefore. is prefer
able. Whatever system of marking is
adopted. the important features are
that it should be uniform for all ship
ments and that the marks should be
plain and conspicuous. In many cases
hogs are not marked, but are graded
by the manager at the shipping point.
A record of those subject to dockage
is kept in such cases. Marking is ad-
vised, however. as q precautfon
against mistakes.
Since no payments are made for
stock shipped until returns from the
central market are obtained. these CO.
operative associations may be formed
without capital. All that is necessary
is fo- the farmers to comply with their
engagement to furnish the stock to the

REMARKABLE CHANGE.
In a statistical survey of the first six
months of prohibition in Arizona, jan
uary to July l. 1915. Thomas X. Mar.
shall shows the marked improvements
in all phases of state life. Crime. in
counties where saloons existed during
1914, fell OF 37.3 per cent when the
saloons were closed. This insured a saw
ing to taxpayers OF s50.7739S in de-
creased cost OF arrests and prosecu-
tions. Even more striking are the fig-
ures for the cities and towns. With q
total decrease of 2,403. or 6O.1 per cent.
in the number of arrests for the first
six months of 1915 as compared with
the same months of 1914. the saving
amounts to sS5.170.14. This almost Off
sets the entire amount of liquor license
revenue, $100.99S, which was surren-
dered by the cities of the state.
The record Of the city OF Phoenix 10
perhaps the most remarkable OF any
Over $5.0O0.OOO increase in taxable
wealth, decrease in tax rate and about
$4,000 less in cost Of city government
for six months. is credited to the capi.
tai city of Arizona for the first half
Of 1914. The decrease in arrests for
drunkenness for the first six months
OF 1915 perhaps surpasses that OF any
city Of its size in the United States.
The number of arrests for 1914 was
1910 and for 1915 was SIS. The per
capita cost Of arrests for 1914 was
$6.53. With LIPS fewer arrests for
the six months OF 1915 for this cause
there was a decreased cost of S7.3i6.25
to the city.
Savings banks accounts in the state
increased nearly 100000 the first six
months. and the deposits Of all banks
increased nearly $S.00O,0O0 up to Sep
tember, 1915
The children Of the state are feeling
the benefit of prohibition. There were
for the first six months OF 1915 1000
more children in school than for the
same period of 1914. The registration
at the state university also shows an
increase Of Sc per cent over the regis.
tration for 1914.
