ENCOURAGING FOOD PRO
DUCTION

A big advance movement was
made when the old time cattle
shows we're made the opportunity
for spreading ideas OF scientific
food production. Formerly agri-
cultural colleges were considered
theoretical affairs by the farmers,
and the advice of specialized pro-
fc5sors was looked upon with
some contempt.
Then the "aggie" colleges began
to set up tents at cattle shows
and would show one pile Of ears
of corn grown with scientific
treatment, and one pile without.
Even the most hard shelled farmer
could see the difference with those
shrewd old eyes of his. He began
to prick up his ears and slide into
the tent where these despised pro-
fessors were lecturing. Thus idaes
of better farming have spread,
until the country gets such results
as the bumper crops of 1922.

DINNER TIME

There has alweys been consider
able discussion in families and
among medical men, as to whether
the heartiest meal of the day
should be eaten at noon or at
night. Some hight on this ques-
ton is given by a canvass made
of the views of physicians by the
Medical Review of Reviews.
1t will be something of a shock
to the millions of conservative
people who still follow the old
plan of having dinner at noon,
that only seven physicians repre-
scented in this canvass favor the
hearty midday meal. The general
sentiment was that breakfast
should be heavy, while the noon
day lunch should be light, which
brings the big meal of the day to
night.
1t seems to be considered in
many circles more fashionable to
have dinner at night. This point
of view may have started from
the fact that in large cities great
body of people are away from
their families at noon. Their off
ces or shops are at some distance
from their home, hence they nat
urally patronize restaurants and
lunch rooms for their noon day
meal. Millions of them eat out
of the traditional dinner pail or
the modern thermos bottle.
Naturally when all these folks
return to their homes at night
they desire a hearty meal. AS city
manners frequently set the pace
for country customs, many people
Who formerly had the old time
hbon day dinner, have moved their
heavy meal over to six o'clock, to
conform to the prevailing style,
though the whole family may re-
turn home at noon.
Some doctors used to say that
people with weak digestion did
better to eat a light supper and
take their hearty meal at noon.
But the canvass referred to above
indicates that the night dinner idea
is spreading. Custom and style
often govern such matters, and
many people who have sneahng
preference for the hearty noon
day meal will feel they must have
the late dinners to keep up with
the game.

The American Home

American home life is in a state
of chaos, according to thee report
of the natioral council of the
Protestant Episcopal church. 1t
complains of divorce, broken
homes, disregard of religion, neg
lect of parental respons billy, lax
of obedience by children. Many
other authorities feel that Am
can home life is not training the
children right.
The conditions on the whole may
not be worse than formerly yet
certain evils are obvioue. 1t is
wrong that so many young Peep e
marry in such trifing way. off
we don't Ike each other we can
get divorced" is a common feelin".
People who take such responsihil't-
les 50 lightly will not be good child
trainers.
The children that used to be
reading under the evening lamp,
are now at the movies or cha0ing
around the country on pett'ng
parties. Parents are rather apt to
"pass the buck over to other agen-
cies. The children are sent for
mental instruction to the public
school. and for RELIGIONS and moral
precepts to the SUNDAY Schools,
and many parents feel that this
absolves them from responsibility.
The children ret misconceptions of
life from MANY sources, and when
they act on those misconceptions
the Indifferent parents grieve and
wonder why their children went
wrOnr.
Public schools can give but little
attention to the individual child,
