fact, any home that is not in need Of
too much repairing. Moss and grass
are brought in and the mother queen
now goes forth to gather pollen and
nectar. She brings in enough to make
a good .sized loaf of pollen. She kneads
it carefully and when it is the size of
q marble she lays four or five tiny eggs
on the top Of it.
Mounting her loaf of pollen she
broods her eggs and in five days they
hatch. The little grubs dig into the
pollen and in their wee burrow eat
their fill Then they spin a brown
silken wrapper and rest. Later they
cut their way out of the waxen cell

From now on the queen mother lays

this, baby. 1t is babys.'
So mother invites the return OF her
plate and substitutes for 1t babys ball
or something which he may use as he
chooses. If he presses the object upon

so that he initiates her carefulness ana
her thankfulness when he Is handling
something which belongs to her.
One lesson will not drive this home.
We have to repeat these sentences ana
ceremonies over and over until baby
begins to differentiate between what ne
can enjoy without asking and the OBJ
jects which he can touch only with
mothers PERMISSION or IN her company.
Next we convince him by experience
that he may have his own things for
as long as he wants them, even IN COM
pany with other children. He can
not learn this if adults forcibly take
his toys and present them to other
children. making strange and disturb
ing noises at him meanwhile. He must
learn to be unselfish by fist having
faith that others will not deprive him
of his toys. He may do as ne pleases
with them. 1t is his pleasure to share
them with others, and to enjoy the
praise and the like pleasure OF play
ing with other children's toys in their
homes.
The lone child becomes unhealthily
devoted to her things, and as her right
to them is never questioned except
when a visitor arrives, 1t isn't to be
wondered at that sometimes she resents
their even being looked at. Provide
special toys for visitors, and let the
child discover that there is pleasure IN
exchanging and sharing toys.
Some children have no sense OF own
ership. They would gladly bestow the
grand piano upon visitors, were IT not
for the protests of the mother. Such
children must be taught the difference
between giving away things that are
truly theirs-and valuable toys or pos
sessions which it would penalize the
parents to replace. We must UNDER
stand, too, the motives for their gen
erosity, and provide the children with
other means of being popular with
companions.

Distribution of Silage

To obtain an even distribution of ST.
lage an Illinois farmer has hit upon
a simple but effective device. An or
binary pitchfork is bound alongside
the down pipe of the silo filler, the
tines pointing downward and extend
ing perhaps a foot or sixteen inches
below the end of the spout. Just
above the tines pole is attached to
the fork by means of snap, ring,
wire, clevis, or other convenient
means. This pole extends to the re-
movable doors of the silo, from which
one man directs the stream of fodder
about as necessary. The resulting 81
lage has been as good as that tramped
by as many as five men. Similar re-
suits are reported from time to time
by other farmers.

Many Farmers Lose Land

There are about 100000 farms in
the United States. OF this number
100000 carry mortgages. The "cas-
ualties" among farmers are high, es-
pecially in the last few years. 1t is
estimated that 220,500 farm owners
become renters yearly, and today one
of every six farmers has been demot-
ed to the rank of renter. The aver
age farm measures 100 acres, and the
average mortgage on farm is about
81 an acre. With an increase in the
price of farm produce the gap between
ownership and tenantry will be bridge6
for many farmers.
