Idea Worked!
Wise mothers find the things that
keep children contented, well, happy.
Most of them have found they can
depend on one thing to restore a
youngster’s good nature when he's
cross, fretful, upset.
The experience of Mrs. Win.
Charleston, i>03 Gilmore Ave., Kan¬
sas City, Kans., is typical. She'says:
“X have used California Fig Syrup
with Annie and Billy all their lives.
Whenever they're constipated or
bilious it has them comfortable,
happy, in a jiffy. Their wonderful
condition proves my idea works.”
Physicians endorse the use of pure
v egetable California Fig Syrup when
had breath, coated tongue, dullness,
feverishness, listlessness, etc., show
a child’s bowels need help. Weak
stomach and bowels are toned bj
it; a child's appetite and digestion
are improved.

Vegetable Crops
for Early Sale
Hotbeds Help Produce Truck
to Meet Demand of Vari
ious Market.
Early maturity of several vegetable
crops grown for the early market may
be obtained with the use of coldframes
or hotbeds, says E. B. Tussing, exten¬
sion specialist in vegetable gardening
at the Ohio State university.
Hotbed and coldframe structures,
he points out, are best located con¬
veniently for the workmen, near a
good supply of water, and sheltered
oy a windbreak. Such structures need
to be located where they will receive
the maximum amount of sunshine in
the early season. A well drained site
is necessary.
Glass Covers Best.
Glass or muslin covers are frequent¬
ly used on hotbeds and coldfrarnes.
he states. But during extremely cold
weather it is best to provide addi¬
tional protection by using rye straw
mats, burlap or loose straw. Glass cov¬
ers are the most durable, and if prop¬
erly cared for will last from 20 to 25
years.
Muslin covers, according to Tussing.
are used extensively on coldframes
late in the season when the weather
has moderated. A good heavy grade of
muslin should be used and it needs to
be large enough to provide an over¬
lap of from 6 to 12 Inches on all sides.
Source of Heat.
For the surface and pit type of hot
beds a good source of heat Is fer
inenting manure. Fresh, strawy, mois¬
tened manure Is piled near the hotbeds
for a few days before they are started
Fermentation usually starts at once
and in a few days the manure will
be ready to place in the hotbeds.
If the manure Is to be used for sur
face hotbeds, he declares, it should
be placed in piles from 10 to 14 inehc
deep arid. 2 feet wider than tiie hotbed
frame. If the manure is placed on the
pile in thin layers and tamped evenly.
It will furnish a moderate supply of
heat for a long time, but the loosely
tamped pile of manure produces high
er temperatures for shorter periods.
Where a pit hotbed is built, much
less manure Is required. Pit hotbeds
are prepared by excavating the soil to
a depth of 18 to 24 inches. The pit is
slightly larger than the frame of the
hotbed and it Is well drained. Manure
is packed in the pit in thin layers un
til the manure Is 12 to 18 Inches deep.
Special precaution Is taken to see that
the corners are well tamped.
Honeybee Dependable
Polinizing Operator
Honeybees are always dependable,
as their numbers and presence at any
time and place can be controlled by
man. Given half a chance by the
weather man and the spray rig, they
will raise the mortgage on many a
home. So why kill the honeybee witli
poorly timed sprays?
A number of states have laws pro¬
hibiting the spraying of fruit trees
with arsenical* or other poisonous ma¬
terial during fruit bloom. Most of
these laws are Inactive, however, be¬
cause the majority of fruit growers
have recognized the necessity of sav¬
ing the bee by not spraying at that
time. There are, of course, a number
of fruit growers with supposedly good
reasons who think they should spray
at that time, but when the costs are
counted they find—-If they ever do
count them—that the practice was
rather expensive. Rain, high winds,
wet weather, spray rigs breaking down
during the “pink spray,” a large acre¬
age or on overlapping blooming period
of different varieties, and a host of
other reasons perhaps, may contrih
ute to the delinquency of poorly timed
sprays, thus giving rise to the thought
that the spraying program should con¬
tinue regardless of tiie cost in bees,
the thinness of the crop and eventu¬
ally the thinness of the pocket book.
Selecting Good Seeds
Insures Fall Profits
With all living things, both plants
and animals, “Like Begets Like” and
therefore the farmer cannot be too
careful in choosing his materials.
Poor scrub animals produce scrubs.
Plant poor scrub seeds and get poor
scrub crops. Though tiie better qual¬
ity seed may cost a little more, it pays.
There are many things Influencing
the amount of the harvest in the fall,
but no single one has more effect upon
good returns than tiie simple thing of
selecting good seeds. This truth is so
self evident that it hardly bears re¬
peating, but It is a fact that many
farmers are tempted to take a chance
on their own seed supply knowing
that It does not measure up to the
proper standard.
Insulation of Poultry
House Increases Eggs
Under even reasonably good condi¬
tions. insulation of the poultry house
can be depended upon to pay. The
Nebraska experiment station esti¬
mates the cost of insulating a 20 by
20-foot poultry house at approximate¬
ly $50. or 40 cents per bird. If this
cost is spread over the life of the
house. It amounts to about two eggs
per lien each winter. Every one real¬
izes that quick changes in tempera¬
ture may throw a flock out of produc¬
tion for several days, or even for the
balance of the winter. Proper insula¬
tion of the poultry house will do much
.to overcame this and may be expect¬
ed to pay for itself within a compara¬
tively short time.
Knockout Blow for
Blackleg of Potato
Hot Formaldehyde Treat¬
ment of Seed Favored.
Potato blackleg, one of the most de¬
structive of tuber diseases In Minne¬
sota, can be controlled by treating the
seed pieces with hot formaldehyde or
corrosive sublimate provided the seed
pieces are planted immediately or are
kept out of reach of a certain small
fly until they are planted.
This fly lays its eggs in great abun¬
dance about the time potatoes are be¬
ing planted. If it happens to lay them
upon seed potatoes and such seed is
planted, the eggs hatch out what is
known as the seed-corn maggot, so
called because when first discovered it
was attacking corn seedlings. Accord¬
ing to J. G. Leach of tiie division of
plant pathology, Minnesota College of
Agriculture, the eggs contain the
blackleg organism when they are de¬
posited. Then as the maggot bores
into the seed piece it carries with It
the bacteria which first rot the seed
and then spread to the stem of the
plant, causing it also to rot and die.
“The maggots feed upon the bacteria
as well as the decaying tuber,” says
Doctor Leach. ’The bacteria remain
in the intestinal tract of the maggot
until It pupates and makes its way to
the surface of the ground where it de¬
velops Into the adult fly. Thus the
insect carries the blackleg bacteria
with it at all times, and. If It deposits
Its eggs on a seed tuber, the plant
from such tuber is practically certain
to became diseased."
Tiie moral for growers is to keep on
treating their seed potatoes nnd then
to make sure that the flies cannot get
at them.
Dry Houses Important
in Preventing “Flu”
Warm, dry houses for hors are very
Important in prevention of what Is
commonly called hog “flu," according
to Dr. G. S. Weaver, South Dakota
State college.
Hogs running in corn or other Adds
where no houses are provided may
sleep out and become subject to rains,
storms and sudden changes in temper
ature which predispose the animals to
“flu.”
Symptoms of the disease are loss of
appetite, labored breathing and ex¬
treme coughing. The disease may
break out suddenly and some of the
hogs may die of pneumonia. Most of
the animals will recover if given good
care. They should be housed and
given an Internal antiseptic such as a
weak solution of copper sulphate such
as a weak solution of copper sulfate
nnd It may be necessary in some cases
to give epsom salts.
It Is always good judgement to call
a veterinarian and have him diagnose
the case, as it may be something more
serious. Doctor Weaves recommends.
Rodents Injure Fruit
Trees During Winter
Fruit trees of all kinds under Mis¬
souri conditions are subjected to more
or less serious injury each year by
rabbits and field mice during the win¬
ter, says T. J. Talbert, chairman of
the department of horticulture of the
Missouri College of Agriculture. Tills
injury is generally great enough to
warrant the protection of all young
fruit trees against danger for at least
the first six or eight years after trans¬
planting. Sneh Injury to young fruit
trees should therefore be anticipated
and guarded against. In fact the pro¬
tection of young fruit trees from rab¬
bit and mouse injury should be given
careful consideration and made a reg¬
ular orchard practice.
Get Ox Warble
If cattle are examined many swell¬
ings will be found on the animals’
hacks. This condition Is caused by
the ox warble or grub. During the
spring months the ox warble can be
controlled at the expense of very lit¬
tle time and money by using a small
quantity of iodoform rubbed over the
holes in the back where the grubs are
to be found. This will kill the grubs.
Examine the cattle about once a
month until June 1.

to them likewise. Great

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP¬
IC—Accepting the Standards ot Jesus.
The context, verse 26, clearly im¬
plies what is elsewhere positively de¬
clared (John 15:18-21; Luke 21:17)
that the followers of Christ will be
hated and opposed. In this lesson
Christ, the master teacher, sets forth
principles governing the life of his
followers.
I. “Love Your Enemies” (v. 27).
Love here is not a natural affection.
To love friends Is easy, but to love
enemies is only possible to those who
have been made partakers of the di¬
vine nature—been born again.
II. “Do Good to Them Which Hate
You” (v. 27).
Love Is positive In its nature. The
true disciple of Christ will not merely,
refrain from doing injury to the one
who hates him but will be concerned
with doing good to him.
III. “Bless Them That Curse You”
(v. 28).
To bless means to speak well of, to
Invoke a blessing upon. Injury by
words Is hard to let go unchallenged.
The true child of God will return
blessings for cursings.
IV. ‘Pray for Them Which Despite
fully Uee You” (v. 28).
We should pray for those who abuse
us. The best commentary on this pre
rent Is Christ's own example, “Father
forgive them for they know not what
tnc-y do” (Luke 23:34). When Christ
was reviled, he reviled not again.
When he suffered, he threatened not,
but committed himself to him that
judgeth righteously (I Peter 2:23).
V. Patiently Endure Wrong and In¬
jury (v. 29).
The Christian is not to bristle in de¬
fense of his rights but is rather to
suffer Insult, injury, and even loss.
This expresses the law which should
govern the individual’s action, but
should not be pressed so far that evil
doers can go unchecked.
VI. “Give to Every Man That Ask
eth of Thee” (v. 36).
God himself is the supreme example
of benevolence. He gives freely and
generously hut intelligently. This
text does not authorize promiscuous
giving. It does not mean that every re¬
quest made by the Idle, greedy, and
selfish should be granted. A man In
poverty needs to be given a way to
earn his living.
Do as You Wish to Be Done
By (v. 31).
Fills is calied “The Golden Rule.”
It is the sura total of Christian duty
as it pertains to human inter-relations.
Human beings carry with them the
consciousness of obligation which is
the touchstone determining their duty
to others. If tills rule were lived up
to, the problem of capital and labor
would he solved, and war would be
put to an end. International relations
would be peaceably adjusted and all
profiteering in business would end.
VIII. Be Ye Merciful (v. 36).
This means to be filled with pity
and compassion, to enter into sym¬
pathy with every need of others. The
heavenly Father is our supreme exam¬
ple.
IX. Censorious Judgments Con¬
demned (v. 37).
This means that we should not seek
out the evil or faults in others for
onr satisfaction. We should not sit
In censorious judgment upon the ac¬
tion of others.
X. Compensations of Right Living
(v T)
The one who gives freely of money,
loves sincerely, makes the Golden
Rule the standard of his life, shows
mercy and kindness to others, and
refrains from Impugning the motives
of others, will be fully rewarded in
time.
XI. Danger of Following False
Teachers (v. 39).
The one who does not know God
and the way to heaven will lead oth¬
ers to ruin.
XII. Those Who Reprove Others
Should Strive to Live Blameless Lives
(vv. 41. 42).
We should remove evil doing from
our own lives before bringing others
to account.
XIII. The Sin of Profession Without
Fruits (vv. 43-46).
The one who Is In fellowship with
; God will practice the principles which
reveal the nature of God.
Ought to Be Sunny and Cheery
Of ail tiie people we Christians
! ought to be the sunniest and cheer
lest. What a difference it would make
j | to all the singing world if folk, our religion made ns
a and if it helped
\ us to comfort and stablish other peo
j pie.—J. D. Jones.
Forgiveness
Forgiveness is not only a deliverance
from guilt—it is the removal of all
that shuts out the love of God from
the heart—C. H. Spurgeon.
