HOW TO HAVE GOOD PASTURE


In the August Farm and Fireside.
we read:
"While better results in pasturing
are obtained early in the season on
burned-over fields, the ultimate eff
feet upon the stand of grass, and es-
pecially of the choice forage stand,
is bound to be bad. The burning
cannot help destroying the crowns of
many of the plants and also much of
the seed that might have been drop
ped the previous year, as we'll as any
plantlets just starting.
"The early growth of grass left
without any protection from the pre-
vious years crops, together with ear
ly grazing while the soil is damp,
provides ideal conditions for the
weakening of many plants and the
total elimination of the choicest, ten
derest of them sooner or later under
the burning system of pastuse man.
agemept.
"Some work has been done in now
ing to control weed growth. Results
to date indicate that weeds can be eff
fectively controlled, especially on the
level areas where weeds are growing
to the exclusion Of all forage plants.
Where the grass stand is good and
the weeds are few, moving has been
detrimental to the growth of grass
even when cut as late as August

ASK THE ELEVATOR BOY.

Ask the elevator boy why mirrors
are put in the car which he directs
for the convenience and comfort of
people who are not disposed to climb
up and down stairs.
II will be interesting to note just
what the elevator boy thinks of the
mirror and to listen to his explana-
ton as to it's possible value. He US
ually is quite an observing gentle
man. well versed in the ups and
downs Of his business.
It will also be interesting for a
casual observer to note for himself
what possible value the introduction
has in a car devoted exclusively to
business purposes.
In Los Angeles a city ordinance
has been enacted requiring the own
ers of all elevators in that CITY dec
Grated with mirrors to have them at
once removed. A similar law has
{been prepared and will be submitted
to the General Assembly of Califor-
MIA.
It is claimed that women too often
put the finishing touches to their tot
let before the mirror and that while
thus engaged they occupy too much
room and neglect their stopping
floor, to their own inconvenience and
to the annoyance of the passengers
in hurry.
1t has been said and accepted as
true that nine oft of 10 women can
never pass a mirror without giving
themselves "the once over" as the
elevator boy explains it. 1t is natur-
al. 1t is the display cf unconscious
conceit which was given to the
daughters of men BIZ Mother Eve.
Commissioner BOYD of the Califor-
MIA State Industrial Accident Com
mission, in explanation of the ban
placed on the Gift" mirror. declares
that mirrors are often smashed and
particles inflict wounds on occupants,
especially the eyes," He points to
several recent damage suits resulting
from such accidents. Continuing.
Commissioner Boyd further explains
"that women are too busy examining
themselves to pay proper attention
to which floor they want to reach,
and finally, "the mirror serves no
really useful purpose except to dis
tract the attention of the occupants
~and in the business of riding in or of
operating an elevator car no one has
any business in having their atten-
ton distracted"
There is much truth in what the
California Commissioner has to say,
but, then, it must be added that
there is no real reason why the la
dies should not admire themselves
and put the necessary touches to
their toilet that they may become
more bewitching in the eyes of men,
for it is natural that we feel an in
tense satisfaction in letting our eyes
rest upon the daughters of men when
we find them fair.-[Memphis Com
