quite generally •in many sondem in
removing atunipe from logged -off

use of a charge of stumping powder.
When large stumps ave pulled with-
out first being blasted, their disposal
will often cost more than the pulling

them by the use of a team end bloke
so that they will burn. '
On the othereiancl, when stumps are
bleated by the use of sneall chargee
a powder, just large enough to split
and loosen the stomps without thew-

then be removed by the use of the

tical where the large etumps are
found, but may be done in some sec-
tions where the white Pine stumps
predominate.
Blasting of •stumps can be done
most economically when the soil is
well filled with moisture. At this time
the water 'fills the air spaces and the
stuinps leave the earth more easily.
The saving is very apparent in loose

stump. For small -sized stunme that
do eet require more than one stick

stumps an augerof from two to three
inches in diameter is used, while

The Hired Dollar.
Men Who boldly bargain for man
labor cringe at hiring dollar labor.
Debt looms up to them as a monsteous
evil forever set in wait for them. They
fail to realize that the power of debt
ean work as mightily for a man as it
can against him.' More men have risen
by debt than have fallen through it.
Debt carrying disaster in its wake
does so in the vast majority of cases
for just' one or two realer's; either the
man whO 'borrows goes too far beyond
his depth, or he secures the money to
hazard it in some enterprtse in which
he is not thoroughly versed.
If a man operating a farm cannot
make, year in and year out, enough
to all,dw himself a margin beyond the
interest on the money invested, he Th
ill-fitte.d to his business; for 111 08 this
extra margin that presents his worth
as a Man. Failing to aecure this collie
peneation for his personal services,
he would be far better off to turn the
value of his land and equipment into
interest-bearing paper and then hire
himself out for wages.
On the other hand, if he is capable
of making a good profit beyond the
interest on his iterated capital, ae
most farmers are, he is wise if he by
judicious, barroWey secures additional
capital, thus placiag hitnself in a po-
sition to operate a larger business.
Few men mount to positions which
in size match theie full capacity. It
is doubtful that there exiets a man
who has not the ability to man-ge
a business a trifle larger than the oin
, he heads, provided of course he has
made genie measure of success. •
One Middle West farmer of large
acres thinks that the stumbling block
of so many fermers is that they have
the wrong goal. They make et their
aim to get out of debt. Olio they
,have taken the icy plunge they harass
themselves until with heart -breaking
sactifice they have paid off every dol-
lar. He believes they shonld increase
their debt as rapidly as they man with
sound. judgment.
The man who is courted by the
banker is the Mall who borrows, not
because he is a prospective victim of
the forecloaing mortgage, but because
the intelligent heavy borrower is usu-
ally a big money maker.
Mixing Lime With Com-
mercial Fertilizer.
Lime added to connnereial f ertil-
ezers, before reaching the soil, may
have one or all of several bad effects:
(a) The usual practice in the- meet
has been to advise against mixing of
lime directly with nitrogenous fertil-
izer materials, such Ete ammonium
sulphate, bone, tankage, dried blood,
and similar meeterials, for the reason
that ammonia nitrogen would be re-
leased and wasted; (b) The formation
of a hard, luemy physical condition in
goods' containeng sodium nitrate or
calcium nitrate is Likely to take place,
These objections are not so meet's
as they would appear. At aey rate,
there can be no claneee when lime
and fertilizers are added to the mil
separately, especially 11 a few clays
elapse betweett the liming and fertil-
ization.
Good-bye, old Brindle, bony scrub,
The time demands a better breed,
You eat enough, but there's the eub,
You never pay for half your feed,
So after all these years we part,
But pray remember, as you go,

You broke my infise long, long ago,

Gas in Silo.
Gas may form in a silo at the time
of filling and for a week or so after-
wards. This gas is heavier than air
and so will settle in the silo and make
conditions uninhabitable for the work-
men. As soon as filling the silo is
started the falling silage and the air
currents caused by the blower will stir
up, enough air eureents to drive out
the -gas. A good Way to determine if
there is gas in a silo is to lower a
lighted lantern. If it goes out, it will
not be safe to go into the silo. Keep
the dors open as long, as possible
when filling.
Look through closets carefully for
S505 of moths or other pests.

"I am the master of my fate;
I am the captain oe my soul.
"Now of course I don't lamw just
what that meat to you but to me it
meant that because I am the captain
of my soul I am the master of my

suppose that all of the outside things
in Henley's life were to his liking?
'Rather not,' as the British say. Hen-
ley lay on his bed suffering tortures
of pain; but be was captain of 1115
soul, nevertheless.
"That doesn't mean that he didn't
meet bad .storms, you see, or possibly
the threat of mutiny and the danger
of shipwreck. But when a militate
gets into perilous waters does he drop
his -wheel, throw aside his charts and
instruments, and rush out upon the
deck and entreat the Storm to stop
and the waves to be still, and rail
against them when they disobey? Not
at all. He goes 'within'; he lays out
tlie course that will be right, tvhatever
happens; he seizes the wheel, and so
he rides the stolen! Isn't that the
way to be its master?"
"Ye -es," assented Sally slowly, "I
'suppose so, but how- does that apply
to me?"
"Well, of course you have heard this
before, too; but it doesn't make it any
the less true. It's not the thing itself

it worth while to use fertilizer, even

This was discussed at coneldevable
length at a recent gathering of grain
growers in Chicago, and the general
feeling was ae given in the above par-
agraph.,One lean on ettendance was
perticultrly insistent in setting forth
the economic value of this plan.
He realized that the priee of fer-
tilizer was considerably higher • than
in 1914, he said, but referred to a
recent Government report which
shows, that an -acre of, farm crops
could buy more fertilizer last year
than 111 411(1 in the years immediately
preceding the war. Ae a land owner
himself, he said he believed the land-
lord could well afford to insist that
his tenant buy fertilizer, sharing half
the cost with him.

Early Plowing Orings Bigger
Wheat Yields.
Early plowing is one of the essen-
tial factors in arovving high yields of
wheat as shown by results at the
Ohio Expetitnent Station, where from
to 8 bushele More per aere Men been
secured by observing early plewing-
dates.
Agronomists pant out that early
plowing maks it pessible to prepare
a Orin, fine and meet seedbed, which
is regarded so essential in successful
wheat growing.
Frequently a pest of the wheat can
be controlled by early plowing, par-
ticularly the wheat midge tilts season.

The Welfare of the Home
The Housewife's Problem
of Feeding the Family
He who makes two blades of grass
grow'where only one grew before is
a public benefactor. The housewife
who plana daily to ;improve, the food
which nourishes the family, working
into this food. thoughts of health and
of love, is 'truly the mother of the
nation.
Food that is used just to fill the
stomach does not make efficient men
and evoraen•, the food we eat each day
must fulfill various missions in the
body. If the person is under twenty-
five years of age, it should Ingid body
tissue, bone anci tooth structure mei
supply the ever-increasing energy -de-
mands, while if the person is over this
age and under forty-five he will need
less' body building fotels and enevgy
foods and more bulk or ballast foods.
From forty-five and on, a decidecl cut
down in the protein foods and' a liberal
amount of .green and energy foods
with an abundance of balbast and pure
drinking watet. This is one of the
real reasons why the great number of
men who are sedentary or indoor
1vorkers have neeve and nervous
breakdowns after forty years of age.
If one will but study this subject,
in order to be at efficiently fit at sixty
as one is at forty or forty-five years,
age has nothing at all to clo with the
decline of bodily tissue. .For just look
about you and you will see some folk
old at fifty and °them young at seven-
ty years of age.
Good food in proper amounts that
oontains sufficient bulk or cellulose
(roughage) to :mist in removing the
poisonous waste and a generous flush-
ing of the digeeeive tract with mere
water will keep you sufficiently fit at
orie hundredl years of age. Learn to
anticipate Mother Nature's wishes.
Every baby inherits the dominant
right to be fed at its mother's beast,
and unless serious illness and compli-
cations prevent, every mother should
take tel 'pride in her ability to so
feed her child. Between nine and ten
moeths old, the baby should be wean-
ed euid gradually brought to the table
for its nourishment. This is the start-
ing point or the beginning of an in-
heritance of a perfect physical health.
Call the chid is six years of age
you should plan your child's diet in
ordei to give it one quart of the best
milk daily you can pedicure. A high-
grade milk is a real food that con-
tains the vital and necessary mineral
elements that are needed hi the tooth,
bone and muscle structure. So no
matter what other eceitomy is noes -
awry, do .not stint or curtail on the
milk arid other foods which are nec-
essary for the child.
Feeding the One -Year -01d.
Feed the year-old baby, at '1 a:111.,
juice of. one-half orange, three-quar-
ters of a glass ee milk and three table-
spoons of well -cooked cereal. This
means that the cereal should be cook-
ed in a double boiler for at least: two
and one-half hours. Over night in the
fireless cooker is much better. ,
At 10.30 DAD., three-Qtlertel'S of a
glass of milk, heated and poured over
slice of thick toast; eeraped baked
apple.
1,30 p.ni, matched or boiled egg,
four tablespoons of ceolded spinach.,
rubbed through sieve; one thin slice of
bread cut into tiny blocks; one-half
glass of milk.
4,30 pm, small baked potato with
little butter; small cup custard, four
stewed prunes, one-balf glass of milk.
6.30 p.m,, glass oe
This menu ;nay be varied, Fresh
aspategus, well nooked peas, earrots
may be rubbed through a sieve and
used for variety in place of 'the spin-
ach. Chicken broth and well cooked
rice may' replace the intik and custard,
in the afternoon meal. Celery, spin-
ach or dream soup may replace the
egg; usually three eggs each week
will be found sufficient.
At two years of age the child
should be taught the use of a knife
and fork. A small child's set oe knife,
fork and spoon an be purchased at
a very eeasonable price and they make
the teaching of correct table manners
a very easy problem.
Teach the child to use a napkin
with each meal; these can be made
and are quite 'inexpensive. The and
should be taught to brush its own
teeth after each meal and just before
bed time. I think it far the better
plan to feed the small child four times
daily in place of he usual three adult
meals, 'Plan the meals as follows:
7.30to „8 axe; 11 to 11.30 aen.; 3 to
3.30 p.m., and the lastmeal, which
should be light, about 6.30 p.m.
The Two-Year-Old'a Diet.
For brealcfasti juice af an orange,
baked apple . or stewed :prunes with
raisins; three tablespoonfuls of well -
cooked 'cereal mith two-thirds cup of
neilk. Slice of bread and butter.
At 11 to 11.30 axle cream soup,
usine either potatoes, peas, , spinach,
celery, lettuce part of thecken stoek
midi part of raik may be used. Whole
wheat bread and butter with little
finely threcided lettuce.
Rice, tapioca, hominy or Indian

stewed prunes and vaisins may be used
for variety in dessert with a glass of
mi: the meal at 8 to 3.30 pen.:
little very finely minceel well -cooked
chicken or lamb, not more than oue
tablespoonful for two-year-old to three
tablespoonfuls for the four-year-old.
Baked .potatoes, spoonful oe well -
cooked vegetables, such as spinach,
carrots, turnips, celery or lettuce.
Tho last meal of the day, at 6 or
6.30 p.m,: bread and butter end a glass
of milk. ,Whole wheat bread contains
the sixteen feed elements that the
human body requires, and wieh a glass
of milk it forms a perfect food for
the growing child. Good fresh dairy
or creamery butter is vitally necessary
to the groevth of the body. Milk, but-
ter, eggs, fresh uncooked lettuce and
finely shredded celery contain ribun-
dant materials for body growth and
physital well-being, so be sure to use
these foods abendantly.
The active 'child consumes a lot of
energy alai bodily heat in its playful
efforts, and for this mason must have
sufficient enetgy foods if it is to re-
main physically fit and supply the
necessary materials for the upkeep
and ,growth of the body.
Shall the aim have .candly ? That
depends entirely upon youvolf. With
many children around and all of them
having their sweet tooth appeased,
111 15 hard to deny your child some of
the sweets, but be wise and prepare
it at home.
A careful Watching of the elle, will
entirely eliminate intestinal and other
digestive disturbances. If the small
child becomes sleepy and dull, finicky
about tleis or that, have the physician
look him over at once. It will not
only prevent serious illness, but will
prevent the child suffering.
, Tee, coffee and other beverages have
absolutely no place in any child's diet.
So do not give him these things.
Plenty of cool, but not iced ender,
mid then remember that a good, pure
iee cream is 10 real food.
