DRAINAGE FOR SWAMP LANDS
Large Tracts Can Be Made to Grow
Crops and Meat Animals to Feed
Thousands of Soldiers.

F'rom the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
Large tracts of wet land varying in
area from few hundred to thousands
of acres in many states in the humid
regions, which now produce little or
nothing aside from timber, can be made
to grow sufficient crops and meat ami
mails to feed thousands of soldiers, If
properly drained. These areas are fire.
quentIy capable of producing excep-
tionally good crops, the soil is produc-
tive, and only for lack of drainage are
prevented from being profitable to
their owners and an asset to the ma
ton. In almost every tract of this
kind there are usually a few owners
who feel that the land could be drained
to advantage and that few crops pro-
duced on the reclaimed area would pay
all the expenses of a drainage system,
but too frequently there are other land
owners who object to the plan.

FIELD PEA AS FORAGE CROP
Well Adapted to Northern Portion of
United States for Spring and
Summer Growth.

CFrom the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
One of the first crops to be planted
in the spring-and in some cases one
of the best-is the field pea known in
some localities as the Canadian field
pea. 1t deserves even wider use than
has been given it according to a recent
publication, Farmers Bulletin 900, en-
titled, "The Field Pea as a Forage
Crop" published by the U. S. depart
ment of agriculture.
Since the field pea requires cool
temperature during it's growth, it is
well adapted for spring and summer
growth in the northern portion of the
United States and in the comparatively
high attitudes Of the Rocky Mountain
region, and for winter growth in the
lower South. 1t is useful on the farm
as a rotation crop for hav, grain, silage
or green manure, and the peas may be
used in the green state as vegetable
like garden peas.

The Glory of War.

The glory of war stands out when
you think of war, not as romance or
duty or sacrifice or idea, but as work.
Bill and Tommy and Jean and Hans
in the trenches may curse at the dip
lOmats who have brought them into
he mess, grumble at the officers who
cad them into death traps, at the
aommissariat that underfeeds them,
ut the orderlies who come too late
with their stretchers and morphine !;
but that Is precisely the same way in
which a man responds to his employer,
his foreman, and his grocer and butch
err, in peace time. Few of us, in the
normal life, relish the particular job
set for US, but the job as a whole is
something which will not admit of
question. Suppose we do ask the men
in the trenches why they are fighting
and they cannot tell us why. What
then? They are fighting because for
the time being war is work.-From the
Atlantic

This Rat Was Sure HUNGRY.

1t is known that a rat is persist
ent gnawer and rarely ever gives up
a job Of gnawing 1t undertakes, If the
job requires all summer. J. II. Hou-
chens, who conducts a produce and
creamery business on the first floor of
Judge Colyer's building, on Main
street, was annoyed with the depreda-
tons Of rats, which were raiding his
produce, and he thought he would
succeed In barring them out by tack
ing a copper-faced metal electrotype
plate over the aperture through which
the rodents gained access TO his room
from the outside. But to his surprise
and dismay he found one morning that
the rats had gnawed c crescent-shaped
hole through the electrotype and again
got into his place Of business. This
may appear to be a fish story to some,
but 1t is a stern citation of fact. Those
who doubt it should call on MI. Hou-
chens and examine the electrOtype.-

HAD USE FOR ROCK CANDY
Ia These Days of Sugar Shortage Its
Employment Was Quite
Good Idea.

1t was heatless Monday, A little
girl entered a drug store and APP
preached the prescription counter,
where she timidly asked If it would he
possible to buy some rock candy. He
told her they were not supposed to sell
candy, but she assured him that she
didn't want it for candy. So he asked
the proprietor about it, and the rro-
prietor said yes, to sell 1t to her-that
her mother probably wanted it TO
make cough syrup OF, and that it was
therefore a proper purchase.
So the clerk wrapped up the rock
candy and the little girl paid for it.
And then the clerk said: as your
mother going to make some cough
syrup" And the little girl answered /:
''Oh, no. But you see we're out of
sugar, and the grocery hasn't any, and
mamma wants the rock candy to sweet
en- her tea"
It's good idea, at that.

that the people do not differentiate be-

politics could be injected into the war
situation. But the campaign is on and

On Giving and Receiving.

Face beauty, AMI everywhere in life

this fundamental law of the universe.
The Christian Work.
