WITH THE soriooi.
In a plea for more hearty co-opera-
tion between the school and the
home, Mrs. W. E. Hopkins says, in
Farmer's Magazine, that the first es-
sential of the teachers success in the
rural school is n set of sternly flrm
and strongly supporting trustees;and
the second, the kindly good-will, if
not the active co-operation, of
home influence. A teacher, says Mrs.
Hopkins, may enforce obedience, but
she cannot enforce respect; and if
she lacks the respect of her scholars
they, in ~turn, will as surely lack the
learning that is hers to impart. You
might as well keep your chiild from
school as to cause him to lose cond-
dence in his teacher. You may have
thought it an unimportant matter to
pass an adverse opinion of the teach-
1-r in the presence of her pupils, but
I tell you .that every word thus said
is an evil seed sown into the garden
of their mines, ther. win speedily as-'
velop to combat the cultivation of
knowledge _the_ih~=...issehef is so
ardently pursufiig`.~
DU'l‘¥ OE PARENTS
The provoking part of the quetion
is that both teacher .and pupils are
so absolutely at the mercy oi the
parents in the matter, for the teach-
ur may be the most deserving and the
pupils the .most devoted, yet neither
can prevail' against the parents’ ridi-
cule. The home influence is, and al-
ways shall hc, the predom-inating in-
fluence in the life of the individual.
'Phe child, whether at home or in
school, is as surely the slave of his
clan in .the matter' of opinion of fam-
ily feeling _as he is of their blood and
name. Bend your child. to school if
you will, give him this or that mas-
ter. buy him all the books that he
can read, and after all you, the fatb-
er, the mother, and all the rest of
the howls fem, win have formed his

GIRLS NEED EXERCISE
Of course all this applies to girls
equally with boys. Up to twelve
years of age there should he no differ
ence whatever between the plays of
girls and of boys. For physical and
mental growth a girl needs to run,
climb, jump, turn somersauits and
handsprings and join in games of co-
operation just .as boys do. Country
girls are not growing up strong.
Boys and girls .should never he teas-
thu word “tomboy”' to a girl be-
cause she is fond of outdoor play
ought to be ostracized. The trouble
with girls is that they are too finely
dressed for physical training. The
plain dresses of today are cut pret-
tily. A one-piece dress of any dur-
skirt, make ,good romping suits for
-irls. It would be a sensible idea for
the mothers of a section to get to-
girls; for in a school, unless all do
it, it can't be done. One or two

The type of house best for laying
hens is the open front house with
glass windows between `the openings.
The glass windows will admit light,

,SKIM MILK FOR FOWLS
An interesting experience in the
feeding lim milk to poultry il SWS!!
by Lime Ridge Fern, New York, in
Hoard's Dairymnn. On this farm
cows and hens are both kept in
Large numbers. During April, May
an June skim milk was fed regular-
ly at the rate of 850 lbs. daily to
1,500 hens. During this time _ the
amount of eggs received varied from
week (ali eggs each day being count
ld and records k€pt») By a mistake
'in instructions during the first week
in July the skim milk was fed to
other live stock. At once there was
noticed a gradual and alarming de-
crease in the amount of eggs laid per
|00 dosen down to 450 dozen per-I
yield increased to 66 dozens again

July 31st.
I Another correspondent of Hoard’s
says skim milk is especially bene-
dcial to poultry during the moultlng
season. His hens frequently Lay right
through the moul¢iD$ season ' when
given skim milk. Hp! considers skim-
milk worth 50 cents per pound for
calves, pigs or poultry, especially to
laying hens.

A "DUG-OUT” ROOT CELLAR,
No one will dispute the fact that
our prairie soils will produce roots
;and vegetables second to done. A
_much more perplexing problem than
the growing of these crops is the sale
storage, of them over winter in our
climate of low temperatures, says
,The Nor’=West Farmer. Some farm-
ers in our older districts have solved
the problem of building the bank
barn and placing the root cellar un-
; in as good condition as it was stored
easily put in from an opening in the
roof, which is carefully closed up be
fore frost comes. This minimizes la-
bor in carrying, and also shakes oil
some of the dirt which is detrimental
to the safe keeping of stored roots.
Mr. Patmore had several of such
cellars, one of which was 150 feet
long, and held 10,000 bushels of
roots.

ing good drainage. Many have no
means of drainage except by ditches
along roadways. Open ditches, clear
of hiusii and debris, with hardened
surface and proper fall, afford these
farms the opportunity of ridding
themselves of many a stagnant pool.
The removal of weeds, proper toad
grading. surface hardening and oil-
iiiiz insure prompt drainage of all
pool, ditch and surface water, re-
moving ihe possibility of insect
breeders, for none can multiply With-
out moisture.
Road oiling in itself is destructive
of insect larvae, especially mosqui-
toes-a well-known fact. Dry roads
offer pedestrians, and notably chil-
dren who are compelled to walk to
and from school, dry shoes and feet.
While colds are due to specific germs,
yet it is a well known fact. that cold,
wet feet und chilled limbs lower the
resistance of individuals and make
them more favorable subjects for in-
fections of the respiratory passages,
including pneumonia and tuberculosis
flood roads prevent disease by set-
ting nn example to atlioining farm
proniises. Good roads promote trav-
el :mil set nn example to the farmer
whose promises nrc bordered by th0m.
The comparison of a well graded,
clean highway with an unkempt and
trashy hsrnysrd adjoining is suffi-
cient to siziui-ulnte every landowner bd
n cleanup. Pride compels him to
offer to possess-by a nent appearing
and attractive house and barnyard.
1-lesiilts are only too obvious. Good
roads are active disease prevention
agencies, aside from their financial
and commercial value. .

` Even when there is cream in the

fabric by brushing the spot with
