EXpectant Mothers Should Take Care
 Of Themselves

(By Dr. J. H. Pickard in Southern Agriculturist).
 As physician of over 20 years ex- perience in the country, 1 have noted that woman carrying the burden of two lives often at certain periods and for psychological reasons concludes that she is a menace to the home, and is almost tempted to let her life sink even into the oblivion of death
 rather than be a continuous bearer of
 such burdens. We cannot blame the
 woman for such ideas, for her burden is a great one. But, on the other
 hand, it behooves US for every reason
 to make her comfortable and happy, thereby removing from her mind the
 pressure of unbelief on her part that
 she is the flower and blessing of her home.
 Every form of heavy work, such as drawing water, scrubbing, washing,
 etc., should be kept from the mother whether she is bearing or has re-
 gently borne the great burden of child
 in utero. Naturally she wants the farm, the garden, the house and
 everything kept in it's usual order,
 and will endeavor to do all the work
 required to keep them so rather than
 let things Ego to rack" as have
 heard said. Mother, do you not know that perhaps 90 per cent of the ser
 ious dangers and accidents of this
 period are caused by overwork, over taxation of the system and over- straining of the vital forces? Do you not realize that much of the
 responsibility rests with yourself, and that upon your life depends the life of the unfolding bud whose blossom ing will bring joy and happiness to your home, and whose portion may be to tighten your cares and make light your life when you grow aged in years and your part in woman's
 active life is over?
 Seeing the extreme necessity of every care on the part of the mother herself, and of devotion in every act
 and energy on the part of the husband and every other member of the
 household, let every reader of this
 think of some practical way in
 make the mother in his own or his neighbours home happy and comfort
 able. Let every husband make his
 plans to protect the welfare of his
 wife and the precious fruit of his
 home. Husbands, 1 cannot impress
 upon you too strongly the fact that
 now is the time of al ltimes to show
 your fathers love, and to take every form of work and worry upon your self, that the mother of your child
 shall have no outside burdens.

MORGAN'S GIFT .PLEASES.

London, July 16.-The gift of J. P. Morgan, of New York, to the Victor ia and Albert museum of the collect ion of stained glass, which occupied five windows of one of the corridors caused widespread satisfaction here.
 The collection is of peculiar inter est to students and designers. The earliest items of the glass are four small panels of French glass of the latter part of the 18th century. Two of these represent scenes from the Temptation in the Wilderness" The subjects of the other panels, evident. ly contemporary, are the "Miracle of the Feeding of the Five Thousand'' and scene from the life of St. Nich- olas.
 The rest is entirely of German and Swiss origin, and provides material for studying the distinctive develop ments of art, pal ticularly in the Rhine Valley, towards the close of the Gothic period and during the Renais- sance.

THE BEACH PARTY

The office force of large firm de- cided to give beach party for then- selves and friends. At once the ques- tion of entertainment came promi- nently before the organization. A meeting was called and suggestions requested. All sorts of outdoor en- tertainments were proposed from baseball and swimming to drop the handkerchief and propounding conun- dums. Finally a committee on enter tainment was appointed and list of active games decided upon for the athletically inclined and few quiet games for the lame, the halt, the old and the indolent-for this was to be an all exclusive cosmopolitan party
 The men with one accord declared that the luncheon was the "big" fea- ture and the most important of all. Every one would be ravenously hungry.
 The committee on "eats," needing this warning, planned very substan- tial luncheon of the very best pro- ducts obtainable.
 Open fires were used for all neces- sary hot foods but most of the lunch con was in ready-to-serve form when purchased, for the members of the "eats" committee were business wom- en and allowed the food purveyors to do the cooking for them.
 To satisfy that "ravenous" appe- tites it was decided that the piece de resistance should be fresh buns with hot wieners or crisp bacon. The ba- con and wieners were cooked on forked sticks over the coals, then the buns were torn open and the meat inserted making generous and nu- tritious sandwich.
 For those who prefer the bread and butter or sweet goodly supply of both were provided. The sweet sand wiches were spread with jelly of var ious kinds and with fig marmalade. Jars of potato salad, veal loaf, de- viled eggs, cheese and canned pork and beans (the latter heated in the fire) were in evidence. Pickles, catsup and chili sauce occupied promi- nent places on the improvised tables. Tempting coffee Cooked on an inn provised stove made of bricks) was served with sugar and evaporated milk.
 The dessert consisted of ice cream little cakes and cat cookies. All voted the luncheon "the best ever" The committee agreed but they felt best of all over the fact that no one had to do extra cooking in it's preparation. By Muriel G. King, department of food economics, Armour X company.

DO YOU BLAME THEM

Do you blame the boys for going to a neighbours to spend the evenings if the neighbor has warm, bright rooms, while those in their own home are badly lighted and chilly?
 Do you blame the girls for going off to town to work when they hate to tote water pa hill 20 times every day and put with broken-down stoves and half enough household tools at home?
 Do you blame any young, emerge tic ambitious young person, boy or girl, for going where they can see some progress made, and enjoy some of the comforts of living?
 Then who is to blame when they go? And it is so easy to keeI Agriculturist.

BEER VS. WHISK FEY.

The belief that beer should not come under the condemnation so ire quently meted out to whiskey is traceable to the common impression that beer drinkers consume much less alcohol than whiskey drinkers. But those who believe this overlook the fact that the man who drinks per cent beer usually takes ten times as much as man who takes 40 per cent whiskey. The United States internal revenue commissioner, on page 675 of the statistical abstract, gives the per capita consumption of distilled spirits and beer in 1914 and their respective alcoholic contents as follows:
 Gallons Gallons of
 Used Alcohol Distilled spirits - 1.46 'O.584 Malt liquors -----2O.51 O.82O It will be seen from this that the per capita consumption of alcohol by beer drinkers in 1914 was 40 per cent greater than that by whiskey drink CTS.
 Nor must it be thought that the lCoo SOIlSCIICI dClOIl Ol dlCOllOl III UCCI makes that beverage less dangerous. During a recent court trial in Chi cago medical witness was asked:
 Docs the rate or degree of oxida- tion depend upon the concentration of alcohol ?" He answered.: "Not at all on the concentration" To the further question, Would the stimu- lant and narcotic action of forty eight drops of alcohol be greater or less if given in twenty per cent or fifty-five per cent dilution?" "It would be indistinguishable," he an- swered, "just as the narcotic and stimulant effect of the same dose of alcohol is indistinguishable whether it is given in the form of whskey or in the form of r."-Clarence True Wilson.

MEANS DEATH OF GRAMMAR
New Rule Which Has Abolished For.

English as commonly written today
certainly seems to have lost the purity
and strength that 1t had a century ago,
observes the Spokane Spokesman Re
view. Then such masters Of the Ian
guage as CObDe, Coleridge, DCQuincey
Or Hazlitt were journalists as we'll as
poets or ~eSsayistS, and their leading
articles lost nothing of effect on the
public from being literature.
The arrival of the age Of steam, cleo
trlcity and cheap postage was followed
by a change, not for the better, in the
popular style of speaking and writing.
Say what you have to say as briefly
and quickly as possible, and don't
bother about fineness Of expression
became the general rule and practice.
The new millions Of readers demanded
that their reading be expressed in the
language Of everyday speech. The
obligation Of COMPRISING conclusions
about important matters into 1000
words, or fewer, is death, in the end,
to style. The literary form favored is
In touch with the turned-up-trousers
fashion Of wearing ones clothing. 1t
is free and easy and crammed with
linguistic atrocities. Plural subjects
verbs, and Lindley Murray turns In his

: ment of Agriculture)
Few people realize when they sit
down to a dinner including fresh fruits
and vegetables, the great problems
confronting the producer, carrier and
jObber in packing, loading, preserving
In transit, or marketing these perish
able foodstuffs. Systems of marketing
have been so developed that these
periShable products can be placed in
prime condition at the very door of
the consumer. Even when the snO
covers the ground in the North, people
in large cities are supplied with straw
berries and oranges from Florida,
cauliflower and lettuce from Cali
fornia, and green onions and radishes
from Louisiana.
While many problems have been
solved, others have been only partially
cleared away. The proper type Of
packages or containers for marketing
perishables comes in the latter class.
A visitor to any wholesale district in q
large city is confronted with a con
fusing array of baskets, boxes and
crates of every conceivable size and
how business can be carried on under
such circumstances.
Berry and Grape Baskets Standard.
The first piece of national legisla-
ton covering containers for fruits and
vegetables applied TO barrels, which
was followed by the standard cor
tainer act In 1916, st~andardizing berry
boxes, climax or grape baskets and
other small containers.
Now all berries and grapes that
move across state lines are carried in
standard sized packages, while manu-
%facturers no longer make other types
OF grape and berry baskets This in
sures a square deal" to producer
and consumer, because the full-meas-
ure baskets mean that the producer
no longer loses on oversize containers
and the consumer gets full measure
when he buys berries and grapes.
Various states have passed laws
~standardiZing other forms Of con-
~tainers, but there is sometimes lack
Of uniformity in these state laws and
confusion arises at receiving markets.
This is especially true in the case of
hampers in which vast amounts of
fruit and vegetables are shipped each
year from many producing sections.
Too Many Sizes Of Hampers.
To eliminate much of the confusion
and modify marketing products in
hampers, the United States depart
ment of agriculture favors the stand
ardization Of hampers along three
general lines as to capacity, dimen-
sions and strength.
The hamper basket is q popular
shipping container, particularly in the
eastern and southern states. Each
year about 300, 100000 Of these baskets,
of all sizes, are manufactured In about
100 factories near the large producing
sections or in the timber areas. Some
Of the larger factories turn out from
100000 to 100000 baskets annually,
and one firm is known to have ar out
put Of over 1000, 600. BY the use of
machines making 500 to 800 baskets
daily, the manufacturer has been able
to increase his output greatly.

Drawback of Present Methods.

These hampers are now made in a
wide range of sizes, from eight
quarts to fifty quarts, some sizes con
tanning even fractions Of quarts. With
such a wide variety, it is difficult for a
commission dealer to know which to
order. There is also a wlcA difference
in quality. Manufacturers have ca
tered to the demands of the grower
for a cheap package, and in doing so
have sacrificed strength. The shipper
who uses fimsy baskets is 'pepny
wise and pound foolish" for frequent
ly he stands to lose 500 worth Of
products in shipping when he
$1.00 in the cost Of his baskets. Rail-
roads are often expected to make good
these losses in transit and are SOME
times called upon to pay unjust claims.
The railroads, however, have been at
fault in accepting perishables in light,
tlimSy containers, and the %breakage,
furthermore, is often brought about by
unnecessary rough handling. 1t must
be remembered that in the end the
consumer has to pay for all such
losses as well as for the trouble from
SO many different kinds and sizes ef
baskets.
