turn for capital. after which all ex- penses are deducted, such as for thrashing, the managers wage, extra labor, machinery repairs, depreciation, and the cost of fertilizers and seeds.
 Each of the two managed farms has a house for the manager, who also can use the work horses to drive for per sonal use, has a garden, and a COW or two for supplying the family with milk and butter Fifty chickens are fur nished, and the family is permitted to raise as many as possible to supply the needs of the farm table, but on Decem- Der l all the chickens above the origi- nal number must be sold, and the land lord gets one-half the receipts. The purpose of this limit on chickens is to enable the manager to have his own poultry supply without taking undue advantage of his opportunity.
 In order to calculate the amount of money which the manager is to re- ceive' on this plan it is necessary to dc certain amount of bookkeeping. This is left to the owner, who keeps set of farm accounts, and on March I a complete inventory is taken and a yearly summary of the farm business is completed. In cases of disease, poor crops, or partial failure which is un- avoidable, thus cutting down the in come, of the manager, the owner makes some allowance and gives the mana ger, in addition to the wages he has received, what he thinks is due hfm for the work he has done, and the re sponsibility he has assumed.
 In the period before war imitation the managers made from $41 to $49 per month the year round, in addition to having their rent, garden, milk, but ter and eggs. The manager of the smaller farm. comprising '96 acres, re ceived $35 a month straight wages for four years up to 1918. and his bonus averaged $16S a year. The manager of the other farm, comprising 16O acres. formerly received $50 per month and was increased to $35.
 Manager Well Paid.
 When the fact is taken into consid- eration that the managers employed under this system are provided with houses in which to live and are given the privilege of raising their home sup plies of vegetables, milk, poultry and eggs, it will be seen that their neces- sary expenses are ineonsiderable, and it must be conceded that they are well paid for their services, in view of the fact that they have no investment risk. The length of time which the men re main on the farms shows that this method of employment must have been satisfactory both ito employee and landlord in these cases. It should be pointed out, however. that the tenant should have absolute confidence in his landlord before he would be justified in working under this system.

PASSED WITH FLYING coLoRS
Captain Recognized Prospective Marine Engineer as a Man After
 His Own Heart.

They are so close in some parts of Scotland that the lakes can't get enough water, and have to go dry.
 A visitor tells the story of a Scots man, prospective marine engineer, who was being examined by the cap tain.
 The skipper asked a number of diffi- cult questions in order to confess the applicant, but the latter was always ready with an answer.
 Finally, in a tone of deepest con- cern, the captain asked:
 "Now, suppose the water in your In- jectOr was working properly. your boiler check was not stuck, or your pipes clogged, but you were not get ting any water in your boilers. what would you do?'
 The engineer looked puzzled for a moment, unable fully to grasp the sit- uation; then, with knowing smile on his face, he answered:
 'Td go up on deck and see whether there was any water in the lake
 You'll do," said the captain.-Chi- cago Daily News.

| CPrepared by the United States Depart | ment of Agricultural
 'tI took the same interest in my work as tenant as 1 take in my own farm. I began work without a dollar and with very little knowledge of farming, l but while I was on the farm 1 learned good deal. I had ample opportunity to study the principles controlling crop growth, soil Improvement, stock man. agement, etc. The inspiration l re- ceived was valuable indeed, and dur ing my period of service 1 earned enough money to buy the small farm on which I now live"
 This extract from a statement made by a former farm tenant employee, now farm owner, reviews a relation ship between owner. and tenant that a great many persons on both sides of the farm-landlord situation may well envy. There is possibly no subject connected with the business of farm ing which leads to- as many miSunder- standings, dissatisfactions and mutual losses as the management of. farm by a nonowner. Somebody has said that nothing short of application of the golden rule would ever bring about sat isfactory arrangements between the owner and occupant of farm, and yet, in this case, there was nothing eleemosynary in the arrangement.
 Tested by Fifteen Years Trial.
 The man who made the statement quoted above was for number of years the manager. of one of two ordi- nary-sized hog farms owned by man in Illinois, and the plan under which he was engaged as farm manager has been followed by the, owner with al- most unfailing success for more than fifteen years. Briefly, the plan was nothing more or less than straight annual salary which included tenant house and the usual garden and poul- try perquisites, and, as bonus, @ share of the net profits.
 The profit-sharing plan has~servedi to stimulate the efforts of the employee and has greatly lessened the supervi- sion necessary on the part of the owner. By the use of the telephone and occasional visits he is able to keep in touch with the farm problems and to cooperate effectively with the man. ager. Since the owner was farming himself it was important that the man. agement of his other two farms take as little of his time as possible. Thus far the managers have been selected from the men employed on the home farm, which. serves as a training school

BEST TO STICK TO STANDARD
Gardener Should Not Be MisIed by Highly cotored and .Much-Adver-
 -tised Vegetables.

No gardener should be misIed by highly colOred and much-advertised novelties, or unfamiliar varieties of vegetables. Some ,of them may be good, but it is better to stick to the standard, well-known and approved varieties. Many varieties of a certain vegetable may be listed in the cata- logue, but only a few may be suited to your particular soil, climate or needs. If in doubt about what to plant, consult your state college of agriculture, the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, the local county agent or some experienced gardener in the neighborhoed. Carefully figure the varieties and amount of seed re- quireds place orders before the best stocks of the seed firms are exhausted. Usually it is advisable to purchase soed from nearby seed firms or dealers.

BROUGHT BACK OLD TIMES
Familiar Phrase Touched Responsive Chord in the Breast of Former
 War Comrades.

A jostling. heaving crowd was strug- gling for the few vacant places on the last bus home. A tired-looking conductor, wearing on his breast the 1915 ribbon, regulated the rush.
 Full up!" he cried at length, ,effec- tually barring further progress to a sturdy built young man who had swung himself on to the platform.
 The latter stepped off reluctantly, exclaiming, San Fairy Ann." The conductor turned quickly and laughed, and the demobilized soldiers on the bus who recognized the barbarous but familiar perversion of Ca ne fai rien," laughed with him. Come on" he said, and the man jumped on the moving bus with a smile of under standing in his eyes.
 A catchword, universally used in France had revived something of the army spirit of maraderie.-London Chronicle.

Swiss Lakes plsaorae Relies.

The recent drought in Switzerland has lowered the lakes so much that archaeologists are having a great Op- portunity to examine the old lacus- Urine or pile dwellings which date back to the stone age. Old pottery is be- ing discovered in two lake dwellings revealed on the shores of Lake Neu- chatel, says cablegram to the New York Times, and hundreds of piles in perfect preservation and on which these dwellings originally rested are now clearly visible. Many persons have volunteered help for excavating the remains of these ancient dwellings. which, according to Doctor Kellerchief, the Swiss authority on the subject, ceased to be inhabited about the first century of the Christian era. Numer- our boats, which apparently were wrecked and sunk in past times, are now visible.

TOMATOES ARE BEST
 IF RIGHTLY PRUNED
Fruit Is Larger, Cleaner and Su-
 perior in Flavor.
Grown in Home Garden Stalking and Pruning Require Little Trouble and Will Fully Repay Trou-
 ble, Say Specialists.

(Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 A thrifty tomato plant left to itself will spread over a space from 1 to G feet in diameter and will produce a peck or more Of tomatoes. If staked and pruned it will yield about the same quantity of fruit, the tomatoes will be larger, cleaner, better favored, and superior in every respect, and enough space can be conserved to ae- commodate five other plants cared for in a similar manner, say garden spe- cialists of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture. The staked and pruned plants are easily sprayed. and will continue to produce fruit later in the fall than plants which are allowed to spread naturally. As a rule, also. the pruned tomatoes will mature ear Her. On the scale on which tomatoes are grown in the home garden, stalk ing and pruning require little trouble, and will fully repay the effort.
 When the plants begin making a vigorous growth, shoots will appear in the little pockets where each leaf joins the stem. Later the blossoms appear on the opposite side of the stem In pruning the plant, remove all these side shoots and those around the base of the plant, being careful not to dis turb the blossom clusters. The shoots, sometimes called suckers, should be pinched off shortly after they appear. The ma:n stem can be carried to the full he1ght of the stake, then allowed to hang over. By this time six or sev- en blossom clusters. on which the fruit is developing, should be set on the stem.

cement-coated NaiIu.

Approximately one-tenth of the wire nails manufactured are now cement coated, according to H. A. Knight. who writes on the subject to the Iron Age The nails are coated by shaking them up in hot tumbling barrel with q compound consisting mainly of resin. from which they issue with a thin, tough coating which greatly increases their holding power. The friction Of the driven nail with the wood melts the cement and forms glue. which cakes fast the nail.-Literary Digest

iPapermakers Call on Foresters for AAid.
 New York.-'Pulp-wood costs and values have now reached a point where foresters can prove to paper manufac- turers that they must seriously con ssider plans for the growing of their future supply of timber,'' said R. $. Kellogg, secretary of the News Print Service Bureau of New York, in a re cent address at the Cosmos Club be- fore the Washington section, Society of American Foresters.
 "A survey of the situation shows the urgent need of immediate and large scale efforts to provide a permanent supply of raw material for the basic industry of paper making. To say that the United States last year produced :S,SO0,O00 tons of wood pulp means lit tie to the ordinary reader, but the problem takes on a more concrete as pect when it is realized that 6y0O0,0O0 cords of wood, chiefly spruce and hem lock, were used to make this quantity of pulp. The magnitude of the indus try is also more fully appreciated when it is known that the United States in 1920 produced 7,83O,OOO tons of paper, or 147 pounds per capita.
