NOW HIGH COST OF BABIES
AFFECT FAMILY INCOME

Interest in the Governments high
cost of living campaign, which is en-
listing women in all parts of the coun
try, is bringing out many facts that
the nation must face during these re-
construction days. To the daily ac-
cumulating store DIR. Royal Meeker.
nited States Commissioner OF Labor
Statistics, has contributed figures
showing changes in the distribution of
expenditures and shrinkage in com
forts produced in families by the adj
dition of children.
A wife in a workingmans family
spends when she is first married about
as much for clothes as her husband,
according to tabulations, said DR..
Meeker. "But as soon as her first baby
comes her expenditure for clothes
drops. When the next comes it drops
again. So, evidently, the wife has be-
come absolutely do not like to say
it, but I do not know of any other
terms in which to express it-a domes-
tic slave. She is absolutely tied to the
house. She has no clothes in which
she can attend meeting to be taught
about statistics and economice, and all
the other things connected with childs
welfare. She cannot even go to church
unless she is willing to go in an attire
that does not lend itself to display.
THAT is very interesting thing,
and, as a matter of fact in many in
comes which | have studied | have
noted that with the increase of the
family every item of expenditure ex-
cept food declines not merely in per-
centage, but in absolute amounts.
That means, of course, that comforts
and even necessities must be sacrific-
ed to meet the most pressing need, |
the need for food. Of course, that is
only in the lower incomes groups
but that certainly indicates that some
thing needs to be done to bridge this
gap.

HEART-THRoHs FROM THE WAR

/ Every day brings some echo of the
great war; Three men met casually
the other day os men do at luncheon
in a public dining room and when the
conversation CHANGED to turn upon
customs and conditions in parts OF
Europe, one of them said:

before his company was ordered to the

The brief interlude of Republican
control in Congress, marked as it has
been by an extraordinary ipeptitude
for public affairs, has served to ac-
centuate the efficiency OF Democratic
leadership. We have right, therefore,
to claim the support Of the American
people, for we speak for no group;
we speak for no special interest; we
are an unentangled party serving the
interests Of the peopl as whole and
seeking only a greater and happier

VENTILATION
(From HOW TO LIVED

The most important features o.
ventilation are motion, GOODNESS, ant
the proper degree of humidity AMI
freshness.
There is an unreasonable prejudice
I against air in motion. A gentle draft
I is, as a matter of fact, one of the
best friends the seeker after health
! can have. Of course, a sstrong draft
directly against some exposed part
! of the body, causing local chill for
prolonged time, is not desirable;
! but a gentle draft, such as ordinarily
occure in good ventilation, is extreme
ly wholesome.
1t goes without saying that persons
unaccustomed to ventilation, and con-
consequently over-sensitive to drafts,
should avoid over-exposure while they
are in process of changing their hab-
its. But after even few days of en-
joyment of air in motion, with caut.
ious exposure to it, the likelihood of
cid is greatly diminished; and persns
who continue to make friends with
moving air soon become almost i'm
mune to colds.
The popular idea that colds are
derived from drafts is greatly ex-
aggerated, A cold of any kind is usua-
lily catarrhal disease of germ origin,
TO xrYbi oh 1oxrv 81 T.,
predisposing cause.
he germs are almost always present
in the nose and throat It is exposure
to draft plus the presence of germs
and lowered resistance of the body
which produces the usual cold. Army
men have often noted that as long
as they are on the march and sleep
outdoors, they seldom or never have
colds, but they develop them as soon
as they get indoors again.
OF course, one must always use
common sense and never grow fool
hardy. 1t is never advisable that
person in a perspiration should sit
n strong draft.
The best ventilation is usually to
De had through the windows. We
ldvise keeping windows open almost
always in summer; and often open in
winter.
One should have cross-current of |
iir whenever practicable; that is, an
entrance for fresh air and an exit |
or used air at opposite sides of the
DOM. Where there can not be such
cross-current, some circulation can
'e secured by having a window open
10Th top and bottom.

 He planted some corn in a cockel bur patch on new made land which. though late, is making good. The bud worms started in on it, so he went to Roland to get some paris green, but they did not have it, so he got some poison put up in Mem phis for the boil weevil and he and his wife mixed 1t up in buckets and went through the field and wherever they saw the bud worm at work they poured a little into the bud of the stalk and killed everyone right there. There was six acres more of this cockel bur bar which he intended for the boys, who quit him, to plant, but did not get planted. There was nothing to do to this land but to blow it up and plant 1t. There was not even willow sprout on 1t. He did not have to fence any of his land except a small Bermuda grass pas ture for his stock and that saved him from buying many a dollars worth of feed Willows are what makes the islands. On a great deal of this newest made land and. on the sand- bars young willows come up as thick as grass and then the oyerflows de- posit rich soil amongst them and keep at it until the land gets higher than the ordinary overnows. These young willows make the finest of grazing for milk COWS. He has as pretty q fat and slick red COW as one would want to see.

dairy COW ever gets to be, and, my, she is of such a pretty red color. Yet she had not had bite of any thing else to eat for ten days. Dur ing that time she had been kept staked on young willows where noth- ing else was growing.
 His cotton is so high that he is going to top it all this week.
 His blessings are really so great that some of them are almost a curse. In fact, he says that there are so many rabbits on the island that they are a curse. They are eating their share of the watermelons, canl taloupes, peanuts and so forth. He said be had no idea that there was as many rabbits in Arkansas as there is on his island. Next fall he says he will give a rabbit hunt every Sat urday and will invite every boy and every negro to come and bring all his dogs.
 There is great opportunity here for some hill family. He wants one to move on his place this fall to pick his cotton. When they get through they can have boats to cross the river and pick wherever else they please. They will be rich this fall. There are only two of them big enough to work. There are three of them, but it is only good luck that two of the smallest were not buried last week, for the team ran away with them while they were riding the cultivator and both had very narrow escapes. Both were badly hurt but no bones were broken.
 He wants share cropper on the place next year also, and the one to get the job will be fortunate.
 would have liked to have spent at least half the day exploring the island, which l was invited to do, but l got crippled the day before and knew that it would take all my strength to get home, and 1 was barely able to get home at that. I would say that there is a hoodoo working on me to keep me from rambling or to keep me at Wye, but for the good luck l am having. So it must be that the Wandering Fairy is keeping me here for some reason of her own. Returning home 1 stopped for dinner at the Kriers. 1 just could not go any farther. Pete gave me the loyliest crystal arrow head. It is an inch and a quarter long and an inch wide. It is not finished with a stem, as is the usual way, but has a crescent shaped top. Right where the Kriers live now there used to live some of the most artistic people inhabiting the whole earth at that time and some of their crystal arrows are the most beautiful jewels.
 I had a wonderful trip and l can only tell you small portion of. 1t, because 1t would take a whole book to tell 1t all.

under fence, and most of 1t in culti- vation. His land is on top of the south ridge of the Wye mountain, but a good deal of it is too wet for corn and cotton, so he uses 1t for hay. IL is very rolling, with numer- ous branches and he has rock dykes along the branches and hill slopes to hold the soil. The hills wash pretty badly, but he says he does not mind that as he catches the soil be- fore 1t gets off his place. He has fifteen or twenty head of cattle and horses and by that means keeps the hillsides fertile He plants a great deal of leguminous crops and does everything possible to make his farm richer and richer every year. His cotton is from waist high to as high as my head and is loaded down with full grown bolls. His corn is not thick, but there Is a big ear on every stalk that has not got two ears on. 1t, which most of 1t has, His velvet beans, soy beans and stock peas are as fine as l ever saw. His peanuts are splendid and so is his sorghum, milo maise and kafir corn. 1 have never seen a better crop on the noun tain and 1t is we'll worth a visit to see it.. He has only a small home orchard and not much fruit this year because most of his trees are in valley.
 4 Relic of the CiUiJ War.
 Taylor Cox brought me over the other day a U. s. Generals brass epaulette. It is of solid brass and large enough to cover the shoulder. The insignias stamped on 1t are in tended to represent all the accourtre- ments of war. Towards the top is an eagle grasping a bunch of arrows, then comes clasped hands surround ed by rays, which in turn are sur rounded by circle of twenty stars. Below that are the leters 'sU. S. on a hstsield surrounded by gun, spear, sword, battle ak, trumpet, powder flask, bullet pouch, two horse shoes and several other things. It is a souvenir l appreciate very much. 1 l have the promise of a Ford for the later part of this week,-so l am very much in hopes thataI will be able to resume my rambles next week and get about fast enough to make Iup for lost time. 1 hope to get all over the country by the time the com munity fairs open. hope to attend all of them which extend me invi- tations, and if they can provide the space l will be pleased to exhibit a lot of my Indian relics and other curios and minerals of Pulaski county. All who are saving relics for me are requested not to become discouraged. and if I do not call be fore their fair to bring them to me at the fair.
