TWO BLADES WHERENONE GREW F you beileve with old Dean Swift that the most useful person is the one “who makes two blades of grass grow where one grew before,” then your enthusiasm for the members of the Parsons family should be great indeed. Mrs. Henry Parsons is the pioneer in the farm gar- den movement that has turned so many vacant lots into blooming little Edens and the little hoodiums of many a “worst” city neighborhood into alert and happy little furmers. The school garden fad has spreud to all parts of the country. There is every indication that it will soon spread ‘to all parts of the world, for Miss Grace Parsons, daughter of the originator of school gardens, 1S now abroad with the ob- Ject of showing Londoners how to con- duct school gardens successfuily. Countess Hoyos, daughter of the sec- retary of the Austro-Hungarian lega- tion in London, is much interested in settlement work in that city. About a year ago she visited New York and made a study of the work done in the school gardens; also she made the acquaintance of Mrs. Henry Parsons, who in connection with the park de- partment is head of the work in New York. The result of the visit was that Miss Grace Parsons. daughter of the originator, was invited to go to Lon- don and estabiish school gardens there. Miss Parsons resigned her position as Photo uy American Press Associstion. MISS GRACE PARSORS. assistant superintendent - of primary schools in Brockton, Mass., to accept the mission. In New York there is what is known as the International Children’s School Farm league, and of this Mr. Henry Griscom Parsons, son of the founder, 1s secretary. These school farms are conducted on vacant lots, the use of which is donat- ed by the owners, who invariably pre- fer to have a garden on their property to the piles of junk and ashes which | 1t seems impossible to keep off vacant land. Each child is given a strip of land four feet wide. He prepares the soil and plants seven vegetables. The { crop is his personal property to sell or take home. Both boys and girls labor in the { school garden, whose work is so ar- ranged that only a few hours a week | are required, although greater applica- tion is encouraged. The results of the system are said to be remarkable. Boys who were regarded as almost in- corrigible have taken up land and be: come such enthusiastic farmers that they have had neither time nor incli- nation for neighborhood mischief. Of course the vacant lots are first fenced in, and the removal of rubbish is taken charge of by the school au- thorities, but all the other tasks are done by the children. Trained teachers have charge of the gardening, which is intended to pro- vide school children with healthy ex- | ercise and practical opportunities for nature study and to teach them habits of industry. Many children learn to love their gardens, and cases are on move to the country from the crowded city through the urgings of ambitious young farmers. A really practical knowledge of vegetable raising is gain- ed by the children in one season of effort. Many persons believe that the school garden movement will be a powerful factor in turning those who have a taste and aptitude for agricul- ture countryward. .

The deeds of Doan’s Kidney Pills, For Bemidji kidney sufferers, Have made their local reputation. Proof lies in the testimony of Be- midji people who have been cured to stay cured. Mrs. L. Kane, 615 Fourth St., Be- midji, Minn., says: “I was afflicted with kidney trouble for a number of years. My system was filled with urie acid that my kidneys failed to remove and I was often bothered by a shortness of breath. A few weeks ago I procured a supply of Doan’s Kidney Pills and I am well pleased with the results I have thus far re- ceived from their use. I intend to continue taking this remedy.” (Statement given in August 1907). G0OD WORK Mrs. Kane was interviewed on October 6, 1910 and she said: “T am glad to again endorse Doan’s Kidney Pills.

IN A CLASS BY ITSELF The De Laval is not the only separator, but it is easily in a class by itself. As the earlier De Laval patents have expired, others have taken up the manu- facture of separators, but new inventions have always kept the De Laval machines five to ten years in the lead. Would-be competing machines are invariably made up of what has been of De Laval orgin, considered inferior or abandoned in the improvement of De- Laval construction. They are not only castoffs in principle, but nearly always cheaply made with little practical experience. Hence few remain on the market long, and those that do are ever-changing experiments. In factory separation, the use of De Laval machines is now almost universal, exceeding 98 per cent., and the number sold for farm use is many times all other makes combined. The De Laval saves from $3 to $5 per cow every year over any other separator, costs much less for repairs, and lasts three to ten g times as long. HERE’S THE CUARANTEE---CAN YOU BEAT IT? De Laval cream separators are guaranteed to be as represented and to fulfill ; all the claims made for them, being sold subject to the guarantee of their un- | qual-ified superiorty in every material feature of separator practicability, in- clusive of the production of a greater value of cream and of a greater quantity of butter of better quality than is possible through the use of any other separator or creaming system.
