Lunch Easy as Possible.
There should be q deliberate effort
during the out-of-doors months to seize

or any of the heavier home tasks goes
long way toward resting weary
muscles. But Mother" is very apt TO
retort that even a picnic meal is
good deal of bother to prepare before
hand, that sandwiches take time to
make, and that a meal out-of-doors
never seems as hearty as one at the
table. Mother" must be persuaded
that when everyone lends hand. ant

ing 1t is usually done by the children
and not by Mother?
Elaborate baking should not be at
tempted in advance. When the or

a few raisins can be added to one loaf

work done goes for naught.
The best quality of rubber ring is
needed by the housekeeper who uses
any method of canning in which the
ring Is heated with the jar and Its
contents. If the rubber ring develops
imperfections after 1t has been heated

replace it and again process the jar.
Canning demonstrators Of the United
States Department of Agriculture have
been studying the requirements of q
good rubber ring In order to eliminate
this cause Of canning trouble.
Tests of thousands Of rings dis
closed the fact that color despite pop
ular opinion. has nothing to do with
the quality or strength of the rubber
A ring should be able to support q
weight of 13 pounds without break

To make a perfect seal, rubber
rings should possess elasticity enough
to take up the unevenness of the jail
and the cover, and be strong enough
to resist cutting when the seal /:
made. A ring that cannot be folded
or pinched without breaking is use
less for canning by methods in which
the ring is heated (processed) with the

tapped and stored up. This Is car
ried long distances and made to dc
all sorts of useful work.
The triumph of mans mind over
nature Is as great as the triumph or
the vast stream over the rocks through
which it forced its way in the course
of countless years.
1t is only necessary. for instance,
20 watch the crowds going to work
in opposite directions in a great city
to get the idea.
To a Francis Bacon, Benjamin
Franklin, or Madame Curie-tak-
ing these as representative of the
scientific spirit-the world must look
like a place that is largely organized
for inefiiciency.
A large part of the work done by
men and women In the course of a
day has as little result as the beat
| ing of the waves of the sea on the
shore.
Whether a machine is good or bad
comparatively perfect or imperfect
depends on the question Of waste.
In the physical as in the industrial
world, progress depends on the sue
cess with which means are adopted
to ends.
So the old saying is true: Success

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"HURRAH!"

THOUGH apparently of Anglo
i Saxon origin because 1t Is
an exclamation used principally
by English-speaking people,
"Hurrah !" Is Of Teutonic an
cestry, being derived from the
word hurr, also the basis of the
English verb hurry" 1t is. In
fact, only an amplificatiOn Of
this German word, which made
Its first appearance in English
In the form of "Hurray"-a pro-
nunciation which is probably
more popular today than the use
of the broad "a" Indicative of
the "ah" sound.
Examination Of the marching
songs and martial literature of
Germany at the time of the
NapoleOnic wars shows that
"Hurrah !" was frequently used
by the Prussian soldiery at that
time and even began to seep
into the French language in the
form Of hourra. But the resi-
dents of the other side of the
Rhine preferred to cling to their
"vivei" an ejaculation which is
interviewer with French history
for centuries past. The Ger
mans also soon abandoned the
exclamation in favor Of "Hoch I"
but the English took II up and
English-speaking people have
found in 1t an extremely salts
factory means Of expressing
their enthusiasm and approval.

Farmer Enabled to Compute for

Made of That Section.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Figures from which the farme: can
compute for himself the cost of pro-
duction of corn, corn for silage, wheat,
oats, and hay, under given conditions,
are presented in u preliminary report
on labor and material requirements CT
those crops, recently issued by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. These figures cover the normal
hours of man labor and horse labor,
and quantities of seed, fertilizers, etc,
required per acre for each crop. as
determined by surveys by the office OF
farm management and farm econom-
les.
Apply Basic Factors.
The money cost is found by apply
ing to these basic factors the current
rates for labor, seed, etc. lnasmuch
as 1t has been found that, in general
labor and material costs approximate
50 per cent of the total operating COST
for these crops. ii is easy to find this
total when the labor and material costs
are known.
The figures given represent average
crop requirements for the regions
where investigations have been made
| If the farmer does not have precise
records of labor and material eXpendi
lures for his own farm, he can esti
mate them pretty closely by taking th'
average for his own region as basl:
and applying current rates for laDo
and materials, with due allowance 10
any unusual conditions that may exis
in his own case. The method of com
putation is as follows:
1. Determine the total cost of labo
and material per acre by applying cur
rent rates to the quantities of labo
and materials obtained from the In
diyiduars own records, or, If such ar
not available. use those given in tn
table.
2. Determine the total operating eS
pense per acre by dividing the cost O
labor and material by the percentag
figure given for each region.
8. Determine the total acre cost 9
production by adding the interes
charge or the cash rent paid for tn
