REGISTER YOUR BABY"
CAMPAIGN CLOSES

HELENA, Dec 2I.--Af the EXPIRATION
Of the first month following the distri-
button of birth census cards in the
Montana Register Your Baby cam
paign. 520S cards had been received by
the Bureau of Vital Statistics. State
Board Of Health, from Montana parents.
OF this number of cards 955 did not
apply to the 12-months covered by the
census, viz. Oct. /, 1888, to Sept. 30,
1884. and their elimination left 4253
coming within the scope of the survey.
Taking for a preliminary basis the
Montana registration for the year 1888,
or $780, the reports received SO far
cover slightly less than one-half of the
known births for the year.
In the course of the survey, up to the
present reports have been received for
IT'S babies of whose births no record
was on file with the bureau. In all of
these cases more complete information
is being sought in order that the regis
tration of those babies may b. effected
Although the publicity campaign in
Montana is being closed it is expected
that several hundred cards will subse-
quently be received and the returns
made more nearly complete.
One gratifying result of the campaign
has been that the interest of the public
to birth registration has been aroused,
as is evidenced by the fact, that the
number of inquiries received by the
Board Of Health~regarding earlier reg
istrations have increased three times
over the number in periods prior to the
opening Of the campaign.

FARM STATISTICS SHOW CHANGES
IN NATIONS CONSUMING HABITS

The forthcoming census Of agricul-

will record the leading fruits and vege-
tables For apples, peaches, pears. citrus
fruits, and grapes, the items will be
number of trees or vines of bearing
and non-bearing age in 1884 produc-
ton For vegetables, the acreage of cab
bages, tomatoes, sweet corn and green
beans will be shown. Although the CEN
sus will be somewhat restricted, ii is
necessary to show vegetables because
of the very marked change in Ameri-
'can diet which has occurred in the last
20 years, and because this change is SO
accurately reflected by the statistics
Just mentioned.
Among the outstanding changes in
the consuming habits of the country
indicated by the past two censuses of
agriculture is the great increase in the
amount of certain vegetables used,
particularly during the winter months,
and in the increased production of
fruits and nuts These changes are due
in part TO new dietary information re-
lating particularly TO vitamins and in
part TO rapid transportation direct from
the farms. Increases are indicated also
in the consumption of milk and eggs,
both being important sources of vita
INNS.
To assure satisfactory census, ae-
cording to William l. Austin, director,
bureau of the census, department of
commerce, il will be necessary 10 have
the hearty cooperation of all farmers,
all agricultural agencies and the bust
ness interests. Ii is urgent that every
farmer should realize the necessity FOR
full and accurate returns and he is re-
quested TO write Immediately TO the
Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.
G. for sample copy Of the schedule in
order to become familiar with the ques-
tons and to have his records in the
best possible condition when the emu
merator calls in January.

Modern Parents Who Let Children Grow
Up Without Restraint Do Them Injury.

men and women who were brought
up to be selfish and to take the best
Of everything without considering any
one else? Are they not the men and
women who rush to the divorce court
as soon as their desires and pleasures
clash? Are they not the men and

smiling after every knockout?
WHO are the drunkardS except the
men and women who have never
been taught to control their appetites,

the only time he VhJ<s anything
about.
This is to be considered when chill
dren are jealous of each other. When
father takes one child on his knee
the other feels queer" He does not
know that father will take him on
his knee by and by, maybe this after
noon, maybe tomorrow night, his turn
will come. All he knows about it is
that he feels unhappy, and feeling
| that way, wants to hurt the one who
caused his pain.
This is not exactly the time for a
grown-up person to be facetious and
to say, well, old man, I see your
nose is out of joint" That is need
less cruelty. ALI cruelty to children
is needless, but this gratuitous in
jury is objectionable. Children suf-
fer enough. The least we can do is
to try to cushion their falls and Salve
their wounds with affectionate, COM
forting care. Smile at the one who
has to wait his turn, pat him on the
back as you go by, either by saying
something CHEEKY and encouraging or
by giving him a hug and kiss, just
to show him he is cherished. That is
all the child-heart needs to ease its
burden.
Jealousy is instructive. It must be
trained out by experiences. Telling
child about his fault won't cure
him. Neither will preaching cure the
aching in his breast. Show him he
is loved. Show him that his turn
comes. And teach him to make his
own place in the world by serving
other people and SO winning their
affection and regard. The giver
strengthens his own soul. BY giving
himself in service he becomes a tower
of strength for others and a force
within himself. The self-reliant child,
the child who is certain of his place
in the household, is not jealous. The
weak, dependent, uncertain child is
always jealous.
Teach the children to wait their
turns, and make sure their turns come
with sure regularity. Teach them to
help each other. That is easier than
it sounds, because q child in
StinctiVely turns to help his neighbor
child. He would much rather tie his
neighbor's shoe laces than his own,
because of the feeling of superior
power the service gives him. Develop
that notion so the child becomes sure
and self-helpful and jealousy will not
bother him so much.
Do nothing to make a child feel
jealous. Don't praise his brothers
and sisters and relatives so as to make
him feel inferior to them. Praise
each for the good he does, make each
feel his particular place is secure, and
this annoying condition will be less
ened. Teach the children to take
turns in enjoying whatever delights
that are offered, and be sure they get
their turns. Make the present minute
count for them. because it is the only
time they know. A

Camp Life


are city bred
Heavy work, outdoors in all wealth
ers, regular hours and plenty of food
are largely responsible for the increase
of physical fitness. AS I need not
tell you, the latter was of special in
terest to me when I visited one of
the camps.
The commander of the camp, Capt.
Halbert, took me to the cook house,
where a dinner. was in the process
of preparation by the men who were
assigned to this duty. There were
huge coal ranges where vegetables
we're cooking in enormous pots.
From the oven came appetizing odors
of roasting duck, which made us wish
for the dinner hour when we were to
dine on the food in preparation. The
kitchen equipment is the simplest pos
sible, but it is all that is necessary to
turn out appetizing meals. The boys
enjoyed them the more because of the
service in the sunny dining room
where the tables are covered with
bright oilcloth.
The men eat what we would con-
slider enormous quantities of food.
Many of them wher they arrive at
camp are undernourished and very
much under weight Those OF large
stature, who were really en1aciated,
have been known to gain 80 to 40
pounds the first month. Because of
the manual labor, however, this food
is used for building strong muscle
rather than fat.
About 40 cents a day per man Is
allowed by the Government for the
purchase of food. This amount of
money, expended carefully with wise
thought for meal combination, is lib
eral. We, however, dined so well on
the regular mess menu that we asked
to be invited again.

taste-in either event, you will have
added variety and spice to the every
day meals.
Gourmets have always laid just as
much stress on the choice Of cheese
as they have on the choice of wines,
and by intelligent study of the prob
lem, you yourself may become a true
connoisseur along these lines.
There are, of course, an infinite
number of crackers and biscuits,
which are suitable accompaniments
for most of the cheeses, but person.
ally, I like the old-time complement
of French bread and sweet, fresh
butter. There is no conflicting flavor
to spoil the true effect of the cheese,
and the crusty bread supplies the
perfect balance.
