A Boost For Barley.

less gluten than wheat it might well

health.

times it's original size when cooked.
and its uses are wonderfully varied.
AS breakfast dish with sugar and
cream it is rich and satisfying; for
dinner. as a garnish for meat or with
rich meat gravy. it makes a savory
entree: at tea time cold steamed barley

Combined with dried or fresh fruits

Indeed, there is no way in which rice
may be prepared in which barley can
not be cooked with just as good re-
suits. Barley requires long time to
cook properly, but now we have the
cereal cooker and the frelesS cooker
and with them the opportunity to have
the perfect cereal"

PACKING A TRUNK.
Here's the Way to Manage the job to
Get the Best Results.


To pack Il trunk first collect every
thing that is to be put into it. Fold
everything as fiat as possible. Evening
dresses and fancy waists may be pun
into thin pasteboard boxes, packed III
tissue paper and tied with tapes So
they won't slip around. These Will go
on the bottom of the trunk.
Save all the oblong pieces Of paper
that came home from the laundry III
the mems shirts and fold the shirt
waists around these. Use stockings
and things that viii not wrinkle for
filing in the small spaces that VIII
happen, even with the most careful
packing. Put collars, belts aud ribbons
into small boxes
Take folding hangers for dresses and
coats. Short lengths of ribbon with a
safety pin at one end and a brass ring
at the other take up no room at all III
a trunk and will be useful for hanging
up skirts.
If YOU have no hat trunk and are
obliged to pack your hats in the tray,
fill the crowns with tissue paper, place
them in position and fasten them there
with wide bands Of cotton tape held to
the side of the trunk with thumb tacks.
Keep always in mind that the more
tightly the things are packed in the
fewer wrinkles you will find at the end
OF the journey, provided that you have
used care in packing York Sun

RainboWs.

The time Of day or the state Of
weather when a -ainbow appears Is
believed by many people to be an In
dication of future weather conditions.
According to an old rime, a rainbow
in the morning warns the shepherds
to be prepared for rain shortly; an
evening rainbow points to fine wealth
er the next day. Sailors believe that
a rainbow in the wind is a sure sign
Of continued wet. If it comes In the
opposite quarter the rain Will soon
stop. Again, if in fair weather rain.

There is a good story about Dean
Swift apropos of the value Of never
overriding anything. The deans cook
one day overroasted the LEG Of mutton
for dinner, and In consequence she
was summoned to the dining room.
Cook" said the dean in pleasant
voice, this leg of mutton is overdone.
Take 1t back and do it less"
Impossible, your reverence" ex.
claimed the cook.
We'll" replied her master, "suppos-
ing it had been underdone, you could
easily have done it more"
Certainly, your reverence"
"Then," said the dean, "lct this be a
lesson to you. If you commit a fault
always take care that it is a fault
which will admit Of a remedy"

Diversified Farming Insures Better
Living.

Why will folks persist in following
the single cropping system? A great
deal has been said against the prac-
tice in recent years and great deal
more has been said about the results
which follow it. 1t is at the root of
most of the farm and rural social ills
which exist at present. A great many
men have worked for solution of
one or more of the results, but DR..
Bradford Knapp of the United States
Department of Agriculture has sub
mitted the formula which gets at the
bottom of the trouble. P. H. Rolls,
dean of he University of Florida Col
lege of Agriculture, calls attention to
DR.. Knapp's safe farming program.
This program has been published a
great many times, but in view of the
fact that single cropping still exists
it is worth publishing many times
more:
81. A home garden for every FAM
lily on the farm. Not less than a
tenth of an acre for garden and half
an acre for potatoes. An acre of
sorghum or cane for the syrup of the
family; the excess cane can be fed.
90. Produce corn enough to feed
the people and the livestock on the
farm for a year, with little excess
for safety.
"3. Produce oats and other small
grain to supplement the corn as food
and to conserve the soil in winter.
"a. Produce hay and other forage
crops sufficient to feed the livestock
on the farm for one year, not forget
ting the legumes which produce hay
and enrich the soil.
"5. Produce the meat for the fam
lily by increased attention to poultry
and hogs. Plan to gradually increase
and breed up the cattle and other live
stock so as to consume the otherwise
waste products and make the waste
lands productive. Not less than Is
hens for a renter and so for a land
owner would help; 100 would be bet
ter. Set a standard of at least one
sow for every Tenant family and two
for every owner, and breed them care
fully and feed them well. Not less
than two milk cows for every family,
llle COWS pIopeIly Dleu anu leu
"6. When the living has been pro-
vided, grow money crop. If this is
done there will always be a few eggs
and chickens, a pig now and then,
and occasionally steer for sale, and
out of the surplus or sundry products
let US pay the farm expenses"
This program will make for safe
farming. 1t will relieve the neces-
sity for borrowing money and for
"store credit" 1t will enable farm
ers to bank money. 1t will provide
a better living and conserve soil 1t
will make for more prosperous and
contented rural population.
Dean Rolls suggests that every
farmer make preparations to follow
the details of this plan. In Florida
where the planting season lasts prac-
tically the year around it can be
adopted at any season. The best
season Of course is the earliest avail
able, which is now.

JAPAN's FIRST GLASS.
Used In Railway Cars, the Natives Put
Their Heads Through 1t.

That observation car would have
done credit to any railroad in the
world. A Japanese fellow passenger
an official in the japanese ministry of
communications was amused at our
expressions of delight.
"Of course this is all very recent" he
explained "Forty-fve years ago there
was not single car nor a single mile
of track III the whole of Japan. Why"
he laughed. II can remember the first
ierky little trains That were run on the
first line to be opened-the one be-
tween Tokyo and Yokohama. Glass
was a new thing to the Japanese, AMI
there were great many windows
broken and heads bumped during those
first few weeks. Passengers persisted
in trying to pct out their heads with
out first raising the windows. Finally
the glass smashing became so eXpen
sive and there were so many com
plants over bruised and cut heads
that the company was forced to paint
white bar on every window to teach
passengers the nature of glass
Which story we could appreciate, for
we had already noticed in the corner of
a railroad yard a little old car with
white bars painted across the win
dOws. Some of these cars, our COM
panions told us, ore still used as third
class cOnveyances on newly opened
branch lines, for there are still parts
of Japan where the people do not quite
understand glass.-Christian Herald.

CADDIES OF THE LINKS.
Their Originals Were Messenger Boys
In Old Edinburgh.

IN Via GQlnpurSn.
Originally the caddy of the present
day golf links appears to have been
quite another individual, engaged in
another line of activity. Caddies in
the remote past were messenger boys
in old Edinburgh. Gathered around
the famous Edinburgh cross, where
all important messages were read and
many public ceremonies were held
the cross which was the very center of
the old city-the caddies in their rag
ged clothes waited to be employed.
The chief merchants of the city, the
leading official persons, the men of
learning and of talent. the mobiles, the
lairds, the clergymen-all clustered
about the cross during certain hours of
the day, and very often some one
wished to send parcel or message to
another part Of the town, or stranger
TO Edinburgh wanted to be directed.
Here was where the caddies We're ap.
pealed to- These boys might be trust,
ed with any duty with which they
were charged They were veritable
street directories A visitor TO the
town would often engage a cadGte to
be wholly at his bidding, as the boys
knowledge of the place was invalua-
BILE.
But, unless this visitor were most
cautious, he would suddenly discover
that his. caddie, in addition to his vast
knowledge Of Edinburgh, knew also
all about his employer-where he
came from, what was his business In
Edinburgh, his family connections, his
tastes and rences.-Exchange
