Favors Early Motherhood.

Doctor Bell writes in the Journal Of
aeredity. Washington. ID. c.. with the
statistical proof that young women un.
Questionably make better mothers than
those who have postponed the respon-
sibility Of maternity until after thirty
years OF age. He favors early mar
riages and youthful motherhood on the
ground that, contrary to popular opin.
lon, the offspring Of young mothers
have finer vitality and are the peers
II not the superiors intellectually Of
children born IT older parents.

washington,-Nearly 1000 types
and sizes OF farm implements which
have been gradually developed by
manufacturers during peacetime com
petition have been recommended for
elimination during the war by com
miteees OF the National Implement

according TO a statement by the Coun-
Gil OF National Defense, is Il conserve
materials, labor, capital, and manu-
featuring facilities for war use.
In the report OF the committee
meetings to the commercial economy
board OF the Council of National De-
Tense II was stated that no machinery
recommended for discard was believ-
ed to be necessary to modern econo-
mical agriculture. the lines consid-
cred by the committees consisted OF
steel and chilled plows, grain drills,
seeders. and other tillage implements
and farm elevators.
Such OF the recommendations as the
board deems suitable, with others
from different sources, are being
brought to the attention OF all i'm
pIement manufacturers and iobbers,
and as many retail dealers al may
be reached, through questionnaires.
