Sympathy de- mands an imagination that enables a grown ,person to put himself in the child's situation, thatmakes him grasp the child's all-important viewpoint. To the gieted ones, this conies without effort. There is a tie between the child their children, a privilege which often and that adult which unconsciously saves from moral shipwreck those whothey hold dearer than their ow lives. n Sodding a Sandy Ditch. If you ha,ve ever tied, you know that ditches in sandy land are harder to sod than ditches in black or clay loam. The following tells how -I have found it not so difficult to make 3 sandy ditch sod oyer: I first scatter qiiite a.lot of .straw, old fodder and other similar waste along he bed of the ditch. I do not put this material on thick enough to hide the ground at -any place. Next I throw, over the straw a considerable layer of loose brush; staking this at verious places so it can not wash away. • I then scatter a mixture of timothy, blue -grass and white clover up and downthe, ditch. The straw or Old fodder act as a..sort of mulch and the brush checks the action of the water and holds the sand back until the grass can root itself. Following this method ,I have had no difficulty in sodding two or three, troublesome ditches that were rapidly carrying or mother,etelling of any event of the i "(ay valuable top -.soil from 'various day which has particularly aroused his .

' In life, similar tragedies are fre- quently enacted: Well-meaning indi- viduals, groups of persons, and organ- izations, often aggravate situations which they hope to improve. Too often lack of knowledge about the mattet-to be improved is the chief cause for these misdirected efforts: Such 'situations are quite common in the activities of co-operative organ- izations.

But, with our agricultural colleges and other in - the pint the parent is trying to make. With this spirit of mutual trust and confidence comes an '-understanding which leads the child to his parents. Such parents know a glorious joy, sharing the pleasures and troubles of draws them together, so that the child realizes that the older person under- stands, and the older person can tine part Whatever he feels fitting, ad know that the child will receive it Willingly. It is this spirit of 'trust and of mutual give and take, which so many parents find lacking, in their relations with their children. This is the source of so much unhappiness on the part of both, and is at the root of many avoidable mistakes. Parents whb know that they have this handl:- cap, would do well to consider it thoughtfully and apply the remedy in time. - HABITS FORMED, EARLy. The time to solve this problem is during the earliest year. of a child's life. A child of three or four years— happy, irresponsible as he may appear outwardly—is already establishing habits which reflect ,their influence threugh all his later Yeers. As a kindergartner, I have found that there is the greathst variation observable in the.relations between even these small children and their respective parents. One child runs eagerly to his father serve that marks instantly a gap be- tween that parent and child. A worried mother takes her child to school and says (and this happens all too frequently) : "I can not do any- thing•with Billy at home, and so I am bringing him to kindergarten." In- quiry develops. that his attitude to- ward -'his parents is one of extreme bad temper and general unruliness. But what is their attitude toward the child? And whose attitude game tyst? After a short time the mother re- turns to say that Billy has changed. The same child who was brought in kicking and screaming and known to have this attitude toward his parents every time his will came in conflict with theirs, will invariably turn into a sunny, generous and thoughtful child, having character and "stuff" in his -make-up. This happens 'just aa soon as the atmosphere of understand- ing, which the kindergarten affords, envelopes his harassed little soul: , He will blossom forth, suspiciously at stood, stitutions making provieion•for teach- deuce as nthe finds Ins difficultiee under- uil- he appear a different child; The same atmosphere of happi- ness,. content,. and. understanding can be developed at homes At this stage, toward more efficient co-Operaticte wise parents will make efforts ,to win marketing organizations. back their child's confidenee, and, go dee_ forth with him to his new-foundecon- For 24 hears before betchering sciousness of his owe worth, and, his withhold feed from hogs, bui give rightful attitude toward others. plenty of tenter. .Too often parents are taken up with a multitude of duties and give but a . • 'An excellent\ green feed substitute first,' but with ever-increasing confl- Ing co-operative markaine principles It is th be hoped that ultimately there will be available a large number of trained men whohwill be elualified tee contribute in a 'real coestructive way -Moment to finding out their child's is fine, c.ever or alfalfa hay.- peer problems' and how he is meeting them. hoeing water oven' a bucketful, cover The child quiekly senses this, and, .withen okesack, and let it steam until learhs a reserve that' protects him cold.

Pasteuizing cream moan:: heating it to e temperature of 140 to 180 degrees, In creameries this is done by speeially devised machineey, ;but on the farm it is not ea easily performed How- ever, in cases where there is difficulty in getting the creara to churn, when there are bad flavors on the cream, when the butter is going to be stored for winter use, or a mild -flavored but- ter is desired, Mr. W. P. Jones, Chief of the Division of Dairy Manufactures at Ottawa, is o't opinion that it pays to pasteurize. When Auer). is not available an ordinary wash -boiler half filled with water may be set on the stove and the shot -gun cave, containing the cream set in it. The shot -gun can is illustraled in Mr. Jones' recently published Bulletin entitled "Butter - making on the Farm," available at the Peiblications Branch of the Dept. of Ag4iculture at Ottawa. It is a well soldered, plain bottomed tin about inches in diameter and 20 inches deep The codling can be done in a tub ben in which ice has been placate Th cream must be stirred continuell while being heated. . When putting the cream to churn i the only difficulty advises Mr. Jones a temperature-pf 145 degrees will be high enough. _When the flavor on the creson is had or -if the butter is going to be kept for several months,. the bes results will be secured by heating to a tenapfera..ture of 105 or 180 degrees Aecooked flavor will be given the but- ter, but that•avill, pass away in ten days, leaving a mild sweet flavor.

Psetenrizing cream, it is pointed out in the bulletin, usualey requires a slightly lower chierning temperature than unpasteurized. If the butter comes soft the churning temperature of the cream should be lowered.

The white can were let. tered in gold and had little scenes painted .on them in blue. "I wish I were not so plain, but we Can't all be beautiful, I suppose," said the old stone cookie jar with a deep sigh. "Anyhow, I am glad to :have such pretty things to look at." "You are so popular, that you can afford to be plain," remarked a hand- some bread box. "You, ere by far the most popular thing in the entire pantry." , The cookie jar was really much pleased atethis, though it 'ma: "You forget the jam jar," 'The jam jar flushed with pleasure, as it said modestly: "Bread and jam is a popular combination, I admit, but even the, two a us ara not so popular as cookies. • The ,flonr bin spoke in a deep bass voice and said; "You are right.

Dereonuceeorr---This is the latest of the seven mirleles in John, and, like the first, is connected with the life of the family. It is memorable because of its display of power in that one who had been dead for several dayse is brought back to life and eats° be- cause of the consequencee wilich fol- lowed, leading as It did the Jewish authorities to take final steps th bring about the death of one whose power and influence they could not destroy. The miracle was wrought in part as an act of loving compassion for these sisters who were so dear to him, but also th impart a correct knowledge of himself as the only hope of a dying world. Vs. 25, 26 furnish us with the heart of the message. Resuirection is not due to an external act of power, but is the sure result ef having the, life imparted by Jesus, eHe that be- lieveth on me shall never die." The fact that this micracle is omitted from the other gospels has caused consider- able surprise, but we may remember that the Synoptists are concerted with the Galilean ministry. and that two instances of the raising of the dead are given (Mark 5:82; Luke 7:11), while all evangelists subordinate all their narrations of wonder to the supreme miracle of the resurrection of Jesus. I. PREPARATION OF THE DISCIPLES, 1-16. Jesua is busy in Peree about 25 miles from Jeruealene when. the ines- sage comes that Lazarus is sick. The •sisters doubtless; expect that he will come at once.

The compassion of Jesus. These tears are the 'evidence of the deep love he bore toward these sorrowing sisters, and show how ten- der was his heart. They are the tears of one who said, "Come unto me aye ye that labor and are heavy laden, I will give you rest." Jesus was a man of feeling. "It is not with a heart of Istone that the dead are raised." V. 41, "Father, I thank thee. The ser e 4 . in the Father. Heprays always for those things that please God.

THE CONSEQUENCES, 45,57. The result is that faith is awakened in many of those who had come to cone, sole the sisters, while others hurry offet th the authorities to tell them of these wonderful things. But the rulers . listen 'without sympathy, and this mighty work only leads these Jews to call their council and to come to the conclusion to proceed at once to the arrest and condemnation of Jesus. My Sewing Machine. My sewing machine is a real house- hold friend; but, like all other friends, I find it needs consideration and sym- pathy, so I spend an hour or so occa- sionally getting it into a pleasant humor and it repays me a hundred- fold. . I keep it snore than merely dusted. I see that it is always immaculately clean and that no threads and bits of • lint are allowed to accumulate beneath the presser foot. A small stiff brush Is a wonderful aid in this cleaning process; it keeps an the machinery free from dust and does it so easily and quickly. Then I am a little particular about the oil for the sewing machine. I find ; that it is wise to use only the finest of machine oil, the kind that is made expressly for sewing machines. Other oils are too heavy by far. • But I don't use a great deal of oil.
