BLESSED BY A BULL-FlGHT.

Jane Adams was once to a bull
fight in Spain. She saw five bulls
killed and as many horses. When
her friends expressed surprise at
her indifference to the bloody
sport. she said thai she had not
thought much about it. Then she
began to think The more she
thought, the more. Rel conscience
troubled her She had been con-
templating engaging in some form
of social work. 1t suddenly was
impressed upon hel that she had
been milling her conscience 10 sleep
by a dream of service that was re-
naming only dream, that she was
not really in earnest. 1t was the
memory of her attitude of indif-
ference to the bull-fight that acted
as a mirror to her soul and stirred
her to action. She returned to
America, and the famous Hull
House of Chicago came into being
This is the only good thing we ever
heard rs connected with a bull
fight, except when the tortured bull
got even with his torturers.

WHEAT PLANTING DATES
AND THE HESSIAN FLY

Average dates, based on a long
period, should be followed even
in an early season. A matter of
great Importance to the Michigan
wheat growers is the date of SOW
ing fall wheat. Many growers
reason that as the present season
dOubtlessly is two or possibly
three weeks ahead of the schedule
the Hessian Fly will go through
its regular course and finish work
earlier as well, making it safe to
put in the wheat accordingly ear
ly. Unfortunately, the Hessian
Fly does not go through a set and
constant number of generations,
it may produce as many as twelve
during the summer, according to
r. M. Hahn, Extension Specialist
in Entomology of the Michigan
Agricultural College in a circular
to County Agent Kidman.
Furthermore, the different gen.
erations Of the Hessian Flv be-
come spread out and blended so
that toward fall adults are sup
piled continuously. Not only is
this true, but if the summer were
to be prolonged indefinitely, the
fly would continue just as surely
until the change in the season
finally gave indications of the com
ing of autumn.
County Agent Kidman says that
if all farmers were weather pro-
phets, the date of planting fall
wheat could be easily set. If the
farmers knew for certain when
cold weather would set in, which
stops the propagation Of the fly,
they could easily determine the
fly-free date of planting. How
ever, the best that can be done is
to go by the records of the past.
Although the fly was not so SER
ious in the county this year as it
has been in years gone by, yet it
is prevalent enough so that farm
ers should delay their wheat
seeding for ten days or two weeks
beyond the usual date Of planting
for this territory.
County Agent Kidman says that
farmers will find it advisable as
well as profitable to use liberal
amounts of some form Of CONNER
cial fertilizers, depending upon
the kind of land and state of fer
tility, in making the DELAYED SOW
ing of wheat. This will act as a
stimulant in producing the neces-
sary root and top growth which
would otherwise have been pro-
duced by the longer growing sea-
son when the wheat is seeded at
the earlier date.

MENNONITES TO FIND
REFUGE IN S. A. ?
Ask Grant of Paraguay Land
and Exemption From
Army Service

Assuncion, Sept. paraguay
will become the mecca and home
of Mennonites from the United
States and other parts of the
world, if a bill sent to the Cham
ber of Deputies by President
Gondra becomes a law.
Delegates of the sect who ar
rived here some time ago from
the United States have negotiat-
ed for the purchase of about
5000 square miles of land in the
great Paraguayan "Chaco" for
purpose of colonization condition
al upon the Paragauyan govern
ment granting them privileges
which will permit them to conduct
the colony in conformity with the
tenets of their religion and their
system of common administration
of their properties, called "Wal-
senhurst."
President Gondra has recon-
mended to the House that these
concessions be made, which in
clude the exemption of the Men
nonites from military service
either in peace or in war, the pro-
hibition of the sale of alcoholic
beverages in their territory, the
right to establish their own
schools, which would be conduct
ed in the German language, and
in addition the privilege Of i'm
porting free of duty household
articles and agricultural imple-
ments for a period of ten years.
The President says that the es-
tablishment of the colony would
be beginning of the solution of
the problem of populating the re-
public and augmenting it's produc-
tive capacity, there being vast
stretches of uninhabited terri
tory of great productive value. He
accompanied his recommendation
with a history of the Mennonites,
reciting their qualities of indus
try, self-discipline and "collec-
tive virtue"
The delegates have notified the
government that upon the appro-
val of the measure more than
1000 Mennonites in the United
States, Canada and Russia are
prepared to emigrate to Para
quay.

MANY LACK LEGAL
PROOFS OF BIRTH
Census Agent Checks Michigan's
Records; Failure to Report
Births May Bring Prose
cutiOn.

Lansing, Sept. l9-Can you
prove-legally-you were born =?
c. c. Jermane, special agent Of
the u. S. Census Bureau is now
checking vital statistics records
of the state department of health
to learn what percentage of births
go unrecorded in Michigan, what
percentage of people have no leg
al proof of birth.
Births of hundreds of children
born each year in the state are
never recorded, present indica'
tions Of the work reveal. Ia 9th
er words, it is said. these children
may never be able to prove-Ie-
gally, that they were born and en-
titled to the rights of citizenship.
This MEANS, declares rr. Will
liam J. V. Deacon, director of the
bureau of communicable disease
and vital statistics, that the
physician, midwife, attendant, or
head of the family in each of
these cases is guilty of misde-
meanor under the state laws and
liable to fine and Imprisonment
and prosecution at any time for
failure to report births.
Counties sparsely settled and
communities peopled with a large
percentage of those having little
knowledge of the value OF birth
registration where midwives or
no attendants are employed are
sAowing the greatest number of
unrecorded births. Records Of
...e uivision of vital statistic
being used every day by citizens
OF the state for the purpose of
proving the right to inherit prop
erty, to marry, to vote, to attend
school, to obtain passports. work
ing papers, pensions OF TO prove
legitimacy.
ITO neglect to record child's
birth is not only unlawlui, but is
unfair to the child.
