PUPILS IN sT. LOUIS
 ARE LEARNING sIV|IG.
Teachers in Public Schools Adopt Practical! Methods to Create
 Thrift.

The public schools of St. Louis ars introducing the work of Thrift and Savings in their classes in a splendid manner. This work is presented to the pupils in many different ways, 80 arranged as to arouse their interest and establish habits of Thrift and Saving permanently in their lives.
 The plan of pupils in the primary rooms depositing their money with the teacher until enough is gotten together to buy Thrift Stamp is generally ia. vored. Thrift Stamp problems seem to be popular for arithmetic classes in all the schools.
 Franklin school has adopted the Thrift slogan idea and sends slogans around to the rooms from time to time to create interest among the pu pills. They also have reports of the weeks Thrift Stamp activities sent to each room and at all auditorium ses. sjons few words on the subject of Thrift and the benefits of saving for
  The Webster school is using sim pie bookkeeping method of receiving money from pupils and entering it ioI their credit on Thrift Stamp Account Cards, which pupils make for them selves. This tends to fix certain simple bookkeeping facts in the minds of the children with a minimum of effort. Every pupil owns one of these cards. An excellent feature demonstrating this work is that which is used by MISS Hoover, of the Irving school. After a general discussion of saving ana economy children tell of their exper- fences and ways and means or earnlng money. Miss Black of the same scnool has evolved plan very interesting 10 small children. Toy stamps, mones 1 and folders are made by pupils. Doy is selected as Post Office Clerk ana i the children transact business VIII ] him.
 Compositions and English stories ol ! Thrift is a splendid and helpful part 0 | the Thrift and Savings program ol th' Benton school. This school has yer. ] thorough manner in which 1t IS taKin up this work. It has regular panhin hours during which all Thrift Stam i buying is carried on. Reports are fes ularly turned in from room Dahhei z and children encouraged to take all II terest in the keeping of their accounts Z Arithmetic problems are made up po' by the teacher and the pupils ana sno, talks are given by teachers on the Su' ject of Thrift and Savings, ana 'n results of this. Thrift is lntrouuo. as an exercise in Civics. The ln'i Stamp Roll of Honor which the 'sns' maintains is likely to be great a'''' Q tion for the children.

A BR.NKLEY COLCPED PREACHER MAKES BIG
 SPEECH.

At the recent 42nd Annual Meeting of the c. w. R. AssO- ciation of which Rev. $. s. )dom, of this city, is the pre- siding officer, held in Newport
 The feature of the Associa- ton was the splendid address of the Brinkley, preacher. The Newport paper gave the ad~ dress which in part was as fol- lows:
 eff ever in the history of the mankind there seems to be g general feeling of unrest in q country, it is in this country now. The lesser informed were aad are yet perhaps, mistaken l in the meaning of the part played by the civilized world jn pushing to a successful com- 1 Dletion the last great war, and especially the word democracy. Democracy does not mean that we should attempt to better OUT condition by disordcrly strikes, or combination of labor organizations to over throw, or stife capital, neither does it mean that one race must undertake to better it's condition by secretly organiz- ing to raise an insurTection, t0 destroy the lives and property of another race to get what they want. If we are not satis- fled with our cf.rditions we
 Loud seek to better them by ! .,uncil and :l"I,'trattion. My brethen, l wish to inform you here and now, that disOrderly strikes and instructions will always destroy and make al most impossible the very things for which they arc organized.
 "Civilization will not stand long for the illegal destruction of human lives and property. No country, community or in dividual was ever made better or stronger by lawlessness. It ought to be fresh in your minds now. that when the inn perial government of Germany said to the world in actions and I believe in words that she would undertake to carry out her purposes, subjugation by the savage and inhuman de- struction of human lives and property, the whole civilized world rose up, and by shot and shell on land and sea, taught her q think once for alb that such thing could not be.

This~erop is one of the most enduF-
ing and satisfactory vegetables. It
can be grown pA almost any we'll
drained soil, but will do best on deep
sandy loan. There is little possible
ity of having the ground too rich, and
liberal applications of partly rotted
barnyard manure should be made be-
fore the plants are set. The Seeds of
asparagus may be sOwn during the
spring in rows where the plants are to
remain, and the seedlings thinned to
stand ID feet apart in rows.
1t is usually more satisfactory to
purchase two-year-old roots, as con-
siderable time is saved in this way.
AS the asparagus bed is permanent
feature of the garden, it should be To-
Gated accordingly. Before setting the
plants the soil should be loOsened very
deeply, either by subsoil blowing or by
deep spading. 1t is p good plan to re-
move the top soil and spade manure
into the subson to a depth of IA or Is
inches. The plants may be set in
rows for horse cultivation or in beds.
If in rows they should be set IA inches
apart, with the rows 31a feet apart.
If in beds, one foot apart each-way is
the proper distance to set the plants.
In setting the plants the crowns should
be covered 4 or inches deep.
In the North the plants should re-
ceiye mulch Of A or 5 inches Of ma
r. kf1n out II -
mulch Ia not necessary. but the plants
should receive coat of manure or an
application of fertilizer. preferably in
autumn.
No shoots should be removed during
the first year the plants are set in the
permanent bed, and the period OF cut
ting should be short during the second
year,. s. Department OF Agricul.
