It is vtally important to every purchaser of Seeds, either in larger small quantities. to know if the seeds will grow strongly or well, and whether they are pure and will produce true and perfect types of their kind.

RETAIN BEST POULTRY STOCK
Sell Everything That Is Not First
Class, Keeping All High Pro-
duoers for Breeding.

Two factors are working to reduce
the stock of poultry on hand. One is
the high price Of poultry, both live
and dressed, which obtains NJ present,
and the other Is the high price OF
feeds. The latter condition will likely
continue throughout the year. From
reports received, We find that In many
places farmers are selling practically
their entire stock because of these two
conditions. Under ordinary clrcum.
stances, we believe this h. be "A mis-
take and that 1t will be well for our
readers TO retain their usual amount

There Is another danger In the III
centrated learning theory Of bringing
up children. The most valuable part
NJ the child's education during the
early years, so far as the school
Is concerned, has to do with
learning how to get along with
other children-with other people,
that Is. And this Is the chief nd.
vantage of the kindergarten or school
during these years. The problem Of
the adjustment of the indivi3'ni to the
group. and from this the individuals
discovery of his W personality, Is
the most significant part Of education.
We ARE likely to have the choice be.
tween more individual instruction and
rapid progress Of u kind, and more
group activities with slower "lcarn-
ing" When we are confronted with
this choice, IL Is well for us to realize
that the child needs more experience
with the external world. including
other people. This he needs not only
as u foundation for the concepts and
distractions and the lofty ideals we
usually value in learning" but h,
needs 1t quite rs much as II means u

control of self In relation To others.
II has been found that where chill
dren are given AN abundance of CON
crete experience with things Of nature
and of the shop and studies, and with
each other, while the reading and
writing was postponed, they soon
caught up on the learning side, and
were healthier and happier than the

and they even offer you a good lmita-
ton Of expression" II il not difficult
to teach ordinary children to read mt n
very early age. 1t Is not difficult TO
have them read u great deal and to
reproduce much of what they read. But
what Is the use of all this? The as
sumption Is that the more the child
reads the more he will remember, and
the more he remembers the better or
he is.
The facts of the child's development,
however, are against the forcing sys-
ten OF education. We can make a
child reproduce beautiful passages
from our 'best authors" long before
we can give him an lnkling Of what
the authors are talking about. The
child may read about passions and in
trigue, but he gets only words and
high-sounding phrases. We may keep
the child ut our side and I'LL him up
with a thousand facts of history and
enough other words to qualify him Tor
three or four grades ahead Of his
years. But this learning does not add
10 the. cniius power, because IL nus no
real meaning to hint Is not con
nected with his emotions and expert
