 T returned to Russia last summer. visited as many of my old friends there as I could, and incidentally travelled great deal and saw a great many sides of Russian contemporary life, talked also with all manner of Russians.

 JERRY"
 By Catherine Stanwood Pier With
 illustratio by Christine Tucke
 Curtiss. Houghton Mifflin Co.,, put
 fishers. Boston.
 With some very cleverly drawn characters and an unusually interest ing plot, Katherine Stanwood Pier pre- sents Jerry" a story of many en tertaining qualities.
 When Jerry Is first introduced tc us he is just 21. is MT. Jerry Don ahue. He is stalwart six-foot figure of a young man, honest-eyed, clean Tipped, straight and strong. A skilled he lives with his widowed mother in little house in Millville there he gets his first glimpse of "prac ticar' politics. makes an enemy, and broken and Jerry and his mother go to the city, where he hopes to become a policeman. After some difficulty. thanks to the machinations of his' enemy, he secures a place on the force. and his subsequent experiences as | policeman who was honest and there- fore "out of it' have a good deal tc do with the story. Alongside of th;6 which may be called his public. goes his private life--his mother, the girl with whom he is in love. the littIa family of orphans he adopts. and his various domestic difficulties. All of his troubles, however, public as well as private, are happily terminated before the last page of the book is reacheG Mir. Pier, in fact, is extremely generous to all his characters. and every one is and happy when the novel ends. although Mrs. Donohue has one small, secretly cherished grievance.
 Graphically told is the strike situa- ton, and the scenes in and about Mill vile are wonderfully realistic in their appeal.

THE SOY BEAN WILL
SERVE MANY PURPOSES
May Be Grown For Money Crop, For
age, and so!I Imorover-Wln
Follow Dat Crop.

The soy bean is q very valuable
crop to grow at any time. It may be
utilized as money crop where the
seed are harvested and sold to tina
oil mills It thus contributes to the
food supply. Twenty bushels Of saed
per acre is reasonably good y.e'd.
and at the present price this yield
would bring fair profit when the low
cost at which the crop may be grown
is considered.
Probably the greatest value of the
soy bean, on the whole. however, IL as
a forage crop. When grown for this
purpose It should be planted thick in
the row and cut for hay. 1t makes a
feed almost equal in value t0 alfalfa
hay. The harvesting period s usual
" the latter part Of August or the
first Of September, when fair wealth,
er usually prevails. Difficulty Is T. :,
auently experienced IN obtaining &C NJ
seed for planting, and poor stand OF
soy beans is common To guard
against this. the germinativa quality
OF the seed should be tested before
planting and the planting should be
done with care. Failure Will result il
the land for soy beans is poorly pre-
pared The land should be well piow-
ed and pulverized, and the seed plant
ed not more than one inch to one and
one-lalf inches deep. TIE planting
may be done up to the middle of July,
and on this account it is one of the
best crops to follow the oat crop. On
poor land the rows should be from
two to two and one-half feet wide, and
on fertile soil from three to three and
one-half feet Planting should be done
with corn or pea planter and about
one-half bushel CT seed used per acre.
Ii properly planted no hoeing should
be required by this crop and 1t will
need only two or three cultivations.-

SAVE The HOGS: THEY
WILL Be MUCH NEEDED
Some Facts About the Use and Abuse
Of Hog Cholera Serum-Sanltary
Measures Are Necessary.

The cry OF the nation. and OF the
world, today, is for food and yet more
food; and anyone who can, in any
way. conserve and increase the food
supply Of the people at this time Is a
true patriot.
To suggest that we should save our
hogs, at any time but more especially
In the country's present crisis. may
seem quite uncalled for. or even Ii
diculous. However, there are one or
two points in this connection which
may be overlooked, and will bear
etreSsing.
The frst is with reference to the
use and abuse Of serum. Serum, as
every hog owner knows, Is valuable
protective agent against hog cholera.
the demand for which seems to be on
the increase; and from all accounts.
the State serum plant is having all
1t can do to meet the requests for Re.
rum that come to 1t.
The intelligent and judicious use OF
serum Is all right, and is to be COM
mended But may there not be some
hog owners who order serum when
not really needed. or order Quantitien
far In excess of what they actually re-
quire at the time? II SO, and we think
1t not improbable. It means a waste
OF serum, and IL probably deprtving
others OF its use on account OF tenn
po-ary shortage Of the supply thereby
occasioned.
In intelligently conserving the se-
rum supply. therefore. 1t means COLI
serving and increasing the peoples
food supply IN hogs
On the other hand. the one who.
through the wasteful use, or abuse. OF
serum, deprives some one else Of It's
use in trying to save his hogs. is not
only not aiding conservation. but the
very opposite.
The second point is. the adoption Of
strict sanitary measures In connec.
ton with hog cholera. The man who
does not effectually destroy his chol
erkinfec', carcasses, but permits
tn0Ai W AS hIOuIlu tApOStN W NC lAO
means Of spreading infection to his
own still healthy hogs, and TO bis
ne!ghbor's herds, is surely not using
RS best efforts to conserve and IN
CT ease the hog supply and, therefore,
the food supply OF the people in hogs
and hog products.
And the same may be said with re-
gard to thorough disinfection of chol-
erarfnfected premises, etc, in order to
destroy Infection and keep 1t from
spreading and killing more hogs with
cholera.
In other words, the man who uses
every eendeavor to save the lives Of
his own hogs. and those Of his neigh
bors, lie a patriot in the truest sense
of the term. as he is showing that hs
is trying his best to conserve and IN
crease the nations food supply in
hogs.
There are many ways in which We
can display our patriotism; and this
IS a most important one which should
not be overlooked by cur hog owners
