tance in the country we began seeing
automobiles parked beside the road
and in every one of them we saw a
woman hugging man; in not one of
them did we see a man hugging a
woman, and this unusual sight con-
tinued until we reached the brightly
lighted main streets of the town. This
is new fashion: will its future results
prove of benefit or harm to women? ?"

How Snakes Move.

Snakes move on their ribs. The
snakes ribs are jointed at the back.
bone, and extend down over each side
of the body. The ends are connected
with plates on the underside Of the
snake. These plates have projecting
edges, which take hold of the surface
of objects beneath the reptile. When
the snake moves his ribs, therefore, he.
can move forward just as rapidly and
as swiftly as though he had a thousand
legs. If you don't believe this, try the
experiment of putting snake on a
smooth plate of glass and watch its
vain attempts to run. The reason
that the snake can move little or no
distance is because the projecting
edges Of these plates can find nothing
to take hold Of on the smooth surface
of the glass.

The older way of raising tffules was
to turn them out at weaving Time

three years old, then get them up,
wild as deer, for a shearing and then
either span them out to break or put
them in the pen for fattenlng as I'M

Is put on feed almost before weaving
and is never allowed to stop his grow
Ing until he is ready for the harness,
which time is reached a year sooner
by the new method than by the old.
The mule at two is a good work ami
NAL, but care must be taken not to
overdo him at that age, and 1t Is best
not to put a two-year-old in as a
regular" until he is well accustomed
to the work, better still, don't crowd
the yOungster until he is three, when
he will have attained quite a bit of
that strength and grit that makes
him the marvel Of the working world.

PREDICT SMALL TOWN BOOM
Residential and Industrial Readjust-
ment May Come During the
Next Twenty Years.

Is this country to see very soon a
"boom" of the smaller community as
contrasted with the great city? The
editor of the William Feather Magazine
of Cleveland suggests it, as follows:
within the next twenty years it
seems certain that two movements
will take place that will enlarge the
small town.
"One of these will be the migration
of business and professional men and
their families to towns Of 5000 to
10000 located within a fifty-mile radius
of cities in which they work during
the day.
"The other will be the decentraliza-
ton Of industry and the movement Of
both factories and working forces from
the city to the small towns
"With improved living conditions,
factories will favor small town sites,
figuring that they will thus reduce their
labor turnover, and save enough in
= overhead, taxes and interest on eX-
penSive city sites, more than to com
pensate them for the disadvantage OF
doing business in small town.
IF this adjustment does take place
it will solve many of our most per
picking problems, for there is no ques-
ton that our cities are getting too
big. city, like business, can get
so large that the law of diminishing
returns begins TO operate. 1t is an
established principle that when
business grows beyond a certain point
the return on the capital invested
decreases.
"The same principle applies to cities
Big cities have such problems as trans
portatiOn, housing, health, fire and
police protection, from which the
small town is largely free.
"The factors which are doing much
to hasten this decentralization are the
automobile, the motion. picture and the
talking machine, all of them recent
inventions.
"The automobile has shortened the
distance between the small town and
the big city by rs per cent.
",The motion picture has given the
small town the cheapest and most po, u
lar form Of entertainment ever de-
yised while the talking machine has
enabled the people to hear the worlds
best music right in their own homes
"One other force has aided and is
aiding the small town, and this is
cheap printing and low postal rates. |
National weeklies and monthles,
through their editorial and advertis- |
ing columns, have brought the worlds |
news and markets to every door,"

VERY FEW REAL RUNTS BORN

Emphasizing that runty live stock

farm paper in the Central West adds
to the experiences which nearly 1000
farmers have already reported to the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture on the subject Of runt prevention.
"There are very few real runts
born" he declares. They may be a

stitutiOn, brought on by improper
breeding systems. But poor housing,
limited range, getting rooted away
and cheated by the larger and huskier
Of the ltter-these are the agencies
by which most so-called runts are
formed. Given proper care and feed
until they get a start, the runts will
prove money-makers."
These comments agree closely with
the opinions of others who contribut-
ed their experiences in the matter to
the department. Particular care needs
to be given live stock at weaving
