FILLING HER CLUB NIGHTS
How One Girl Succeeded In Banish-
Ing Loneliness Caused by Civ.
ing Up Old Custom.

Barbara Carson felt bored as she
sat toying with her book under the
light OF the table lamp after dinner.
1t was club night for the girls of her
set, and she pictured them enjoying
the excitement Of the lights and the
music as she had done every week
through the winter.
She had had to admit, however, that
the tone Of the club-night dances had
gradually grown lower as the winter
wore on, and she had made up her
mind to break away from this group OF
young people. She wanted to attach
herself to persons who were more
worth while.
In remaining away tonight she had
taken the first step, but she had not
realized how hard 1t was going to be.
lust then her mother entered the
room and noticed the troubled look IN
her eyes.
"What is the matter, dear?" she
asked. HAS something made you I'M
happy?"
mo" said Barbara, mot exactly
that. but l didn't realize how deadly
dull it was going TO be to spend club
night at home"
Aren't you trying to take something
out of your life without putting any
thing else In it's placer" asked her
mother. ''The Bible speaks about our
overcoming evil with good. You are
trying to overcome it with nothing.
You are like the man of whom Christ
spoke who had swept and ~garnished
his soul-house and then left Ii empty.
The result was that the old evil sririt
came back and brought seven other
worse devils with him. And, as Christ
tells us, the last state Of that man
was worse than the first. The man
merely had a soul to let. Where he
made his mistake was In not getting in
some good tenants to take the places
Of the ones he had turned out. The
Italians have a proverb that says that
the busy man is vexed with only one
devil, the idle one with seven. 1t IL
illustrates the old saying that, IL you
want to keep chaff out Of the gran
airy, I'LL 1t with grain.
"The point Of all this is that, II you
are trying to break q bad habit, you
had better start a good habit to take
it's place rather than to sit thinking
how wretched you are. I would sug-
gest that you start now to make an
engagement for every club night dur
ing the rest Of the season. Give your
self something interesting to do that
night; something positive to take
your mind in another direction in
stead of leaving it to revoiye on
nothing"
81 hadn't thought of 1t in that way,
MOTHER" said Barbara. II believe
you're right. Only the other day Mar
jorie Sears said she wished some OF
us girls could get together one evening
n week to do some Red Cross work. !

to come over and help me make some

COMBINATION GATE IS HANDY
Barrier Of Original Design Is Con-
venient and Time Saving
Arranged for Hogs.

The cut herewith shows a combine
ton gate of my W design that I
think is quite handy. convenient and
time saving. 1t Is located between the
barnyard proper and the hog yards. It
is necessary to have a large sliding
gate between the yards in order to
pass from n yard to the other with
team and wagon or manure spreader,

Ohio. in Ohio Farmer. Also I wanted
a place for the hogs to pass through
which / could open or close ut will.
Since there was only room for the
large gate and not wishing to weaken
it by cutting a hog door In ii / devised
this plan.
1t is easily constructed. Simply set
two posts three feet apart and bolt
two 2 by 6 inch cross-pieces to them,
n two feet or more If you
wish, above the one on the ground.
These must be nOtched as shown to
hold the gate where wanted. When

MAINTENANCE or EARTH ROAD
Same Principles of Drainage Apply 10
Clay Roads-keep Pipe Line and
bitches Open.

The same principles Of drainage as
apply to the earth roads should apply
to the sand-clay roads. The sand-clay
roads are usually located by an engi-
neer before they are built. and in this
event they are constructed on a grade
and with proper provisions for drain
age, II remains for the maintenance
force to see that the pipe lines and
bitches are kept open. The surface Of
the sand-clny road requires continual
attention and 1t should be dragged af-
ter every rain or wet spell 1t should
not be allowed to deteriorate and blow
away.
AS this class of roads is more expen-
sive than the earth roads are, so Is
their maintenance more expensive, but,
on the other hand, the service that
they give is much more satisfactory
than that of the earth roads. The
communities through which they run
r usually more enlightened and pro-
gressive than those on the earth roads,
and therefore arc moro able and viii

FOR INCREASED CROP YIELDS
Matter to Soil-Matter Is Of
Great Importance.

Estimates Of the returns Of crops
fed on the farm. by way Of manure
are worked out on the basis OF the
tonnage fed. and they vary greatly
due to the methods Of handling and
preserving the mnnures. II has been
shown by careful preservation Of the
manure that 30 tons Of ensilage fed
can return as much as 80 pounds of
nitrogen, rs to 80 pounds of phosphor-
ic acid, and 40 to As pounds Of potash.
This shows an inducement to take
good care of manure.

CLEANING GRAIN OF BENEFIT
Farmer Could Not Only Demand Top
Prices, but Would Also Obtain
Screenings for Feed.

Government investigators declare
that the producer of high-quality grain
often receives less than 1t is worth In
order that the buyer may pay an equal
price to the grower of grain Of inferior
quality. II the farmer would clean his
grain he could not only demand top
prices. but would thereby obtain
screenings worth $40 to sos n ton for
feed. The specialists believe that
farmers who deliver grain Of inferior
quality should not expect to receive a
price equal to that paid for high-qual-
ity grain.

WHEN YOU WAKE
UP DRINK GLASS
OF HOT WATER
Wash the poisons and toxins from
system before putting mora
food into stomach.

Wash yourself on the inside before
breakfast like you do on the outside.
This is vastly more important be-
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities into the blood, causing ill.,
ness, while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce Of food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounce of waste material must be
carried out OF the body. If this waste
material is not eliminated day by day
it quickly ferments and generates
poisons, gases and toxins which are
absorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts
which should suck only nourishment
to sustain the body.
A splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast, each day,
glass OF real hot water with tea

these poisons, gases and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
