EARNINGS OF CLUB MEMBERS
Indiana Boys and Girls Spend Bigger
Part at Savings for Liberty Bonds
and Stamps.

prepared by the United States Depart

What DO club boys and girls do with
the money they earn In their work?
1t is a question frequently asked by
persons who have read of their prof
its. The question was asked approx
mately $50 boys and girls at the first
annual club roundup of Indiana boy
and girl club members, held recently
at Purdue university In cooperation
with the United States department of
agriculture. 1t was found that So Of
those present owned Liberty bonds,
which they had purchased with their
own earnings; 100 had War Savings
stamps and practically every one had
bought Thrift stamps. Thirty-one had
started bank accounts with the money
they had made in raising corn, pigs,
calves or poultry, selling canned prod
ucts, or from some other branch of
club work. Eigbty-ive owned pigs. 40
owned calves, 20 owned sheep, and 62
owned poultry. Definite plans to at
tend college by use of money from club
work had been made by 1T. 1t was
found that Of the $50 attending the
meeting, 176 had been engaged In club
work two years; 20. three years; o
four years, and four, five years.

Importance Of Potato.
In referring to the Importance Of the
potato, the bulletin says 1t is n Of
the most widely cultivated Of the ag.
ricultural plants, and next to Indian
corn is the most important contribu-
ton of America to the food supply Of
the world. Probably no crop except
rice is eaten by a larger number OF
people. In the more thickly populated
regions OF northern Europe the pota-
to is now the most important of hui
mar foods. furnishing about 25 per
cent of the food Of the continental and
English peoples. Only the oriental
Peoples exist without 1t. Not only are
the tubers used for food, but they have
important industrial uses. As Ameri-
a population increases, the potato
will become more and more important
in this country, there being no other
crop which will give such a large yield
Of food suitable for man under such
varying conditions. <

Much Home Building.
Never before have SO many persons
beea building homes as there are thi
year. The reasons are many. TIL
general run of heads of families nov
are earning larger incomes than eve
before. Rents have been advance,
materially. At the same time the cos
of building has not kept pace with tbs
increase in incomes and rents. These
are causes that have determined many
thousands to build homes of their own
Economically home owning is a great
asset. The man who owns his home
is looked upon as a stable. prosperous
and thrifty member of the community.
To him comes opportunities that pass
by the man who rents. With all other
things equal, the astute employer al
ways gives preference to the home
owner when an opportunity for adj
yancement comes He knows that the
man who owns his home wiu stay, and
is not so sure Of the other fellow who
has no ties to keep him on the job.
Aside from the patriotic motives that
the government Is urging to induce
people to build homes so as to furnish
employment for labor, there is every
selfish reason why everyone who pos
sibly can should build a home this
year. They are the persons who viii
profit In the end.

The man who builds a home for
himself and his family does not build
a house that twill do" Ordinarily the
house he puts up will provide him and
the other members of his family with

course, the foresighted man will not
build such an out-af-the-ordinary house
that it will not be readily salable, but
he will put into his home the conven-
fences and comforts that he wants.
Because Of these facts the selection
Of the design for the new home Is an
important matter. 1t is one of the
things that should be given careful
thought and everything that bears on
it should be considered before the de-

had a great deal of experience in de-

know the mistakes others have made
and how to avoid them.

IT'S IMPORTANCE AS FOOD
One Of Most Widely Cultivated Of AC-
rlcuItural PIants-No Crop, Except
Rice, Is Eaten by Larger
Number of People.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
A guide for teachers and pupils of
elementary rural schools in the study
of potatoes has been published by the
United States department Of agricul-
ture as Bulletin 7S4, Lessons on POI
tatoes for Elementary Rural Schools"
The potato is a good subject for study,
says the bulletin, because Of its Inn
rortance of food, wide range of grow
ing territory and its possibilities for
home project work.
The bulletin contains u lessons, In
Guiding the selection of seed potatoes
In the field, harvesting and grading,
marketing. winter storage, judging, tu-
Der and plant structure, place of po-
tatoes in the rotation, soils (kind,
preparation, f~ertilizers), planting and
seed treatment, cultivation, insect
pests and diseases, and uses as food.
With each lesson Is given the sources
Of material which may be studied with
the subject under discussion, illustra-
tive material that will help in its pre-
sentation, class exercises and practi-
cal exercises.
Study Different Stages.
AS potatoes may be secured at any
tine of the year, there is no excuse,
says the bulletin, for attempting to
study them without having at hand
specimens which represent good varie-
ties grown In the district. The POI
tate plant I'm the field should be stud
led during the different stages of de-
%velopment. Especially should the re-
lation of the new tubers to the seed
tuber and the root system of the plant
be noted. If no plants are available,
a diagram showing the plant as a
whole will be useful. Charts showing
the composition of the potato and Its
relative food values should also be
made. Pictures clipped from bulletins,

After His Explanation, What Was
There for the "SIender" School,
mistress to Dot

The principal Of a certain Indiana
school is very thin. Also she is very
sensitive about this quality. AT her
school no one mentions Ii.
Recently several of her boys had a
long series of quarrels with the boys
of the ~nelghboring ward school. The
principal talked and talked against
fighting, but with no results. The
fighting continued. Finally, one day,
she announced that she would give the
combatants at her school a thrashing
If any more frnys followed. A long
time and all was quiet. Then one day
came the usual fight. Then one day
came the usual fight and. Of course,
the inevitable lining up for the
"lickin'."
Before / punish you, ! want you
to tell me what you were fighting
about this time" the principal told
the recreant ones.
All were silent, but finally the least
fighter spoke up. "Well, the boys up
at that building teased up and said
that we had the skinniest principal In
town, and we told them you weren't
skinny at all, but slender, and then
they began fighting"
Needless to say no n got thrashed.

seed can be profitably grown that as
many acres of clover be left for seed
as can be used without seriously in
terfering with crop rotation. If the
second crop is to be left for seed, the
possibility of a good crop will be
greatly increased If the first crop Is
cut early. This Is especially true IL
there is any danger from the clover
flower nudge. Early cutting Of the
first crop may result in n smaller tom
mage of hay and hay not quite rs
nutritious, but IT will destroy the
nudge. If the field is badly affected
with nudge and the larvae have had
time to mature, a good seed crop is
out of the question. For further de-
tailed instruction see Farmers Bulle-
tin OIL.
In sections where mammoth clover
Is grown fields intended for seed
should be rolled. This will cause the
stems to lie close to the ground. The
flower heads will then bend up and
a be harvested, leaving a large part
of the clover upon the ground to be
turped under for fertilizer. This will
also reduce the amount of straw nee
essary to handle In hulling.
