Do II and Do 1t on Time.

A friend from distance was at
our home the other day and remark
ed, "Mr. French, l am unable to see
how you can accomplish the business
and work that you handle during the
year" A very simple rule, that it has
been my practice to follow very close
ly for the past 25 years, has much to
do with it, as l told this friend. That
rule is embodied in the heading OF
this letter.
Half of the lack of accomplishment
of the average man, and especially
the man on the land, is due to the
fact that he waits for more conven-
lent season, for a time when ne feels
more like doing it, for a time when
everything will be more to his notion,
or for a time when his lack of pre-
paredness will be less of handicap

interchangeable Gloves to Be
Provided for Soldiers.

The War Department authorizes
the following from the Office OF the
Director of Purchase and Storage:
Hereafter troops will receive inter-
changeable gloves, which they may
wear on either the right or left hand.
The Clothing and Equipage Division
is now arranging to have all gloves
in process of production made inter
changeable. The interchangeable
glove is fve-finger knitted wool
glove, with seams so "fulled" or
"fuffed" as to be invisible. These
gloves are not shaped to fit snug on
the palm or full on the back OF the
hand. but are knitted fiat so that the
palm and back are identical. The
thumb is fitted into both the diverse
and reverse sides of the gloves about
a quarter of an inch instead of being
fitted deeply into the palm and slight
Ily into the back of the glove. This
makes it possible to shift the gloves
from one hand to the other to equal
ize the wear on both sides and also
obviates the necessity of furnishing
a full pair of gloves to replace the
loss of one, one glove only being fur
nished to replace the lost one. The
exact appearance of one glove may
be obtained by observing the shape
of the open hand pressed on a flat
surface with fingers slightly separ-
ated.

in the doing of many tasks that come
to him to do or handling the various,
business or social obligations that are
the portion of all good citizens.
All over the country every year
are seen poor crops that are the di-
rect result of the farmers neglect to
break the land on time, to prepare
first-class seed bed on time, to secure
good seed and proper fertilizers on
time, or to cultivate at the proper
time. Then at the harvest is waste
apparent on every hand or extra ex-
pense for harvesting incurred, just
because the farmer had hold on the
tail rather than on the head of his
business.
A note is due at the bank and the
farmer has his credit injured and the
business in which he is engaged dis
credited by business people because
he watt for more convenient sea-
son to meet his obligations instead of
attending to vital matters at the pro-
per time, which is now.
Too many farmers repair the fence
after the animals have damaged the
crops rather than doing it in time to
guard against damage. Think about
it seriously and you will agree with
me that our power for accomplish
ment would be more than doubled, If
the same expenditure of energy was
made on time, rather than a little be-
hind hand.-A. l.. French in Progress
sive Farmer.

Reclaim Homes for u. S. Sol
diers.
Rev. F. A. Weaver.

Washington, Nov. 15.-A number
of the Southern states, notably South
Carolina and Tennessee, are vitally
interested in the proposed project to
reclaim and put to use their waste
and unemployed lands, for there are
millions of acres in these states which
the government might take over and
30 reclaim and improve as to make
them of inestimable value to the SOL
diers after the war who must be pro-
vided with homes.
Already Secretary Lane, as has
been previously announced, has
agreed to inspect the waste lands of
South Carolina with view to consid-
ering them in his plan of reclamation
for the provision of homes for SOL
diers after the war. Of course it
would be out of the question for the
government to take over all the
waste lands in the United States for
the purposes indicated, but if Secre-
tary Lanes proposition should meet
the approval of Congress and of the
president, when the time comes to
mature it, great deal of the unused
lands in the Southern States will
probably be employed for the pur-
pose indicated, and it is we'll that this
unproductive property should be
brought to the attention of those who
have the matter in hand.
Secretary Lane announces that the
preparation of program looking to
providing farms for returned soldiers
has been given into the hands OF A.
P. Davis, director and chief engineer
of the reclamation service, who will
have general charge of the work, and
with whom will be associated Elwood
Mead, H. T. Cory and Frank w.
Hanna.
"We can have job at good salary
for every soldier who returns from
France" says Secretary Lane, IF con
gress will give US the financial sup
port needed. And while at work the
soldier can be making home for him
self, for which he can pay the gov
ernment in 40 years time. This plan
has received the endorsement of so
large percentage of congress and
the press of the country, that it ap-
pears to be a probable program; it
certainly is a practicable one. We
have but 100000 now for prelimi-
nary surveys and reports but this will
be increased no doubt by the coming
congress. There is enough waste and
undeveloped land in this country to
give every soldier a farm, but, OF
course, no such program is contem-
plated, because all would not want
fsrms."

They appear upon the stage with an

virtue of the excellence of their act.
Which is Catherine or which is Flor

They look as much alike as roses from
the same bush and they are all three
just as clever as they can be, They
bring to their performance a veneer
of good taste. 1t is clean, clear-cut
and refined, and appeals alike to gall
lery and boxes, because it has that in
definable quality about it that con-
vinces all alike. The vocal work of
the trio is pitched in the same sub
dued tone and is exceedingly musical.
They sing not with the great volume
of the sirger robusto but with that pc
culiar quality which recalls the pleas

dreamy things which affect an audi
ence wonderfully.
