What Country Girls Can Do.

Our country girl owes something
to the farm on which sine lives. She
need not be n "one-talent girl" She
may be help to the less fortunate.
She may serve whole countryside
by upholding knowledge, culture,
character, the principles of high liv-
ing, and thus enrich her state.
Our moral defenses we are told,
are greater than flags or armies.
Good books are moral uplifts. A good
library where every volume may tell
its own story, means knowledge,
progresh, power. All of these belong
to our inheritance. We are entitled
to learn something of SCIENCE, mill
osophy, literature, the fine arts and
the great institutions of civilized So
cicty. What music alone means to n
country home has never been estimat-
ed
After all, it remains that our first
concern is what we owe to ourselves.
The home may be well arranged
well ordered, the meals rs a necess,
ity to health, we'll balanced. But the
human body must have constant care
Proper diet, daily exercise and bath
ing are great aids to youth and sun

not least, the daily wearing of the

artistic sense. Just here let us "speed

ing conveniences will invade our
country homes that the young NAV
have more time for themselves.
OF all girls, it seems to me. our
girls of the country should excel in

in fields and hills and woods. They

What About the Corn Crib?

Corn Is now selling in this city ut
$2.O5 to $2.10 bushel. 1t will sell
for less than that at gathering time
but it is not going to sell for any
low price for another year at least.
All that may be made will be well
worth taking care of.
All that is made will not be taken
care of, however-unless n great
change comes over the spirit of a
great many farmers. Millions of bus
hels of corn are destroyed every year
by rats and insects. Other millions
Of bushels are wasted by carelessness
in handling and storing. The average
corn crib Of this section is more of
corn waster than corn saver.
The corn crib should be made rat
prof; it should keep the corn dry anu
provide plenty of ventilation. There
are steel cribs on the market that
would soon pay for themselves on
many rains. Concrete cribs are also
being made now. Cribs built of lurnb.
er can be made rat prof by the use
Of sheet iron and wire screening. They
should be made so before corn harv.
cating time. Corn is worth too muc,
to be fed to the Southern Az.
riculturist.
