OLD AGE PENSIONS

After 20 years of slow but steady
progress the movement in the United
States toward state and federal pen
slyGs for the aged, will this winter
center in congress and several state
legislatures. Thirty-five foreign coun-
tries, six of our states (Kentucky,
Montana, Nevada, Wisconsin, Colo
RADIO and Maryland and the Territory
of Alaska, now have laws permitting
the payment of old age annuities.
This year bills seeking to provide
old age pension laws will, through
American Association for Old Age Sc
curity, be introduced in several state
legislatures. Representative Sirovich,
of New York, on December last IN
troduced in the house of representa-
tives, at Washington, bill outlining
plan by which the federal govern
ment could join the states in providing
help for the aged.
The economic merit of the new
plan has been fully demonstrated. IT.
is an established fact that under a
properly devised governmental aid
system it is possible to maintain two
aged persons with the same expendi-
ture required under the archaic aims
house system, for the maintenance of
one person.
A recent study by the United States
department of labor entitled "The
Cost of American Aims Houses"
show that the average cost of main
tenance alone for each inmate is
s334.64. If per cent interest on the
investment and depreciation is addsd
to this, the average annual cost of
an aims house inmate in the United
States today amounts to $439.76. IN
a great many aims houses the average
per capita expenditure amounts to
from $500 to 5000 per person.
According to researches made by
the Pennsylvania commission of old
age pension as we'll as according to
the actual experiences with the old
age pension law in Wisconsin, the
average pension granted amounts to
$3.50 year, although the maximum
pension, which can be allowed under
the law is 1855 per year-Thrift

Manuring Garden Soil
During Winter Season

A dark-colored soil Is generally de-
sired for home gardens. Such soil
contains more organic matter than
one with red. yellow, blue, or gray
color.
The black or brown color should be
uniform throughout the soil. Any
nothing or uneven appearance is an
indication of poor aeration and poor
drainage in the garden soil.
Best results In garden are OBJ
tanned when the soil is well drained
and well supplied with organic matter.
This is true because such soil dries
out early in the spring and yet re-
tains the optimum amount of water
for use by plant life throughout the
growing season.
A very generous application of
barnyard manure every winter will
tend TO improve the garden soil In
both these points. Apply manure al
the rate of five tons per acre. A
good big load spread on 80 by 100
foot garden every fall for five or six
years will usually more than double
its yielding powers.

The recommendations from the

DECLINE In SAVINGS

There is popular belief through

AS matter of fact the increase IN
savings has been gradually. falling
off since 1920. Up to that year there
had been a steady building up of per-
sonal savings which for the year June
80, 1919 to June 80, 1920, gained
$2,273,6 6S,000. Notwithstanding the
general progress of the country since
1920, the annual savings increase has
dropped to s1,368,094,OOO, a loss OF
approximately s1,O00,0OO,0OO
But these figures, distressing as
they are, do not tell the whole story.
The amount of actual new money be-
ing added annually to the nations
savings exchequer is dwindling in
even more alarming proportion. The
amount of interest, automatically

grown larger each year. Up to 1920

A NEW COLLEGE PRACTISE

'Vagabonding" is term, the origin

ance at lectures not included in the

are not as bad as they are some
times made out to be. "Vagabonding"
is a practise to be encouraged. Some
schedules are so heavy with require

generate sufficient heat by muscular
activity to keep themselves warm over
the winter.
The honey bee has an extremely ac-
curate temperature sense. When the
temperature reaches 81 degrees f. the
bees form their cluster. This cluster
is in shape of a large hollow ball In
the hive. The outside wall is COM
posed of closely packed bees facing
inward. In the center few bees fan
vigorously with their wings, and by
these means keep the temperature of
the cluster up to around so degrees F.
The bees on the outside of the cluster
gradually move inward, and the bees
on the outside gradually move to the
outside.
Towards the spring when the warm
weather comes, a temperature from
SO to 90 degrees F. is reached in the
cluster, and at this tine brood rear
ing commences. AS the weather be-
comes warmer, more brood is reared.
This brood rearing continues through
out the summer until the cooler
weather in the fall, when the queen
lays fewer eggs. AS the temperature
gradually lowers in the fall, less brood
is reared until temperature of GO de-
grees F. is reached. At this time
brood rearing ceases and the worker
bees carry out all developing brood
and prepare the colony for the for
nation of the winter cluster, which
takes place when the temperature
reaches 81 degrees +.

Give Horse Plenty Room
to Lie on Side in Stall

The shoe boil is the result of in
flammation in a sac-like structure be-
tween the bone and the skin of the
horses elbow, coming usually from
bruises produced when the animal lies
down, with the leg fleXed under the
body. The injury is most severe in
shed horses, the calks of the shoe
causing the mischief. To prevent it,
give the horse plenty of room to lie
on its side, writes DR.. l.. Van Els in
the Kansas Farmer. Plenty of bedding
is help.
To prevent shoe boils, the horses
foot may be wrapped with burlap or
thick pad may be placed over the
cannon bone. When boil is observed,
prevent the horse from lying down for
a time and it may disappear. Persis-
tent cases of shoe boil may require
surgical operation.

Satisfactory Yields of
Glover Seed Will Pay

Satisfactory yields of sweet clover
seed can be secured each year, and
as the acreage increases the demand
for seed should add this crop as a
profitable one to a seed growers bust
ness. A seed grower usually stays in
the business year after year and
grows several different crops for the
seed. A slump in prices for a short
period on some particular crop does
not throw his business out of joint
under such system.
1t is true that sweet clover seed
prices are the lowest they have been
for several years. Nevertheless, the
easy handling of this seed crop and
its relatively high yields secured per
acre offer a profitable margin for
growers who really make business
of growing it for seed.
