Kinderaarten Training.

The increasing growth of kindergar-
tens in this country has recently been
remarked by the United States commits
sioner of education, who said: with
in the last six or seven years there has
been more progress in the establish
ment Of kindergartens in cities, towns
and industrial villages of this country
than in any previous period Of equal
length. This is especially true of
kindergartens supported by public
school funds. This progress has been
largely due to the activities Of the Ma
tional Kindergarten association"
The kindergarten course secures to
the child an extra year Of education,
and as the boys and girls of this coun-
try average only little over five years
in school the value of this additional
training cannot be overestimated.

tion and ability to take in the exigency
Of the occasion instantly. 1t is never
offensive, but is balm allaying sus-
piciOn and soothing. 1t is appreciated
1t Is plausible without being dishon-
est, apparently consults the welfare Of
the second party and does not mani
fest any selfishness. 1t is never antag-
onistic, never opposes, never strokes
the hair the wrong way and never irri-
tates. Tact, like a fine manner, eases
the way, takes the jar out Of the jolts,
oils the bearings, opens doors barred
to others, sits in the drawing room
when others must wait in the recep-
tion hall, gets into private offices when
others are turned down. 1t admits you
into exclusive circles, where wealth
abounds, even though poor. 1t secures
the position when merit is turned

This old document is in the form Of
petition to royal governor signed by
twelve men who were determined that
the brewers big horses shouldn't run

WHEAT sCAB.

In different parts OF the county
we find wheat fields in which the
heads are dying permaturlly with
the result either of shrunken grains
or barren heads. The general con-
dition of the wheat will be darken-
ed discoloration of the heads and
straw from the top. The heads be-
come brittle and break very easily.
Upon close examination reddish
spots will be found on the base of
the affected glumes. Either part
or the whole head may be affected.
This disease that affects the wheat
heads is known as wheat scab. 1t is
mold and belongs to the general
class of fungous diseases. The pre-
vailing wet weather no doubt made
conditions favorable for it's develop
ment There is no known remedy,
but is best to get clean seed and not
use seed from an infected field.
Prof Temple, Photologist of the
Maryland State College made exami-
nation of wheat fields in central Sec
tions of the county and found this
condition rather general, and in
some cases causing loss of as much
as twenty-five per cent.
Some fields were also found to be
infected with sinking smut. This
disease can be prevented by the
formalin treatment.
The best precaution that can be
taken is to use seed from uninfected
fields. This suggests the advisable
ity of keeping good, clean wheat
separate for seed.
The demand for such wheat, free
from fungous disease, promises to be
large.

County Agent.

SEE THE FUNNY SIDE.
Use Your Sense Of Humor When Dis
tressine Situations Arise.

tressine Situations Arise.
Humor proves TO be the saving clause
of many a distressing situation. The
trouble with most of us is that we
take our troubles altogether too Sc
riously. We fail to see the funny side
of things that for the moment concern
us, even though we are quick to grasp
it when we are mere onlookers.
In the face of gathered clouds that
seem to shut out the sunshine forever
it is not bad idea to remind ourselves
that this old mother earth has been
revolving on her axis for countless
ages, that generations Of men have
come and gone for thousands Of years
and that the march of human progress
has gone right along In the forward
direction despite what seemed to be
occasional sctbacks.
Laugh and the world laughs with
YOU" There is humor in nearly every
situation if we can only see it from
the right angle. Those of us who try
to smile In adversely and think how
much more laughable it would be If
conditions were reversed at least feel
less uncomfortable over 1t and take
pleasure in looking forward to the
time when the shoe will be on the 9th
er foot.-Omaha Bee.
