NATURALLY WAVY SWITCHES WANTS RURAL SURVEY TO AID PEOPLE IN COUNTRY. Find Out What's the Matter, 8o Reme- = dies May Be Devis The social survey is coming into favor in many parts of the country as a means of social betterment. It i8 & simpler matter to bring about im- provement in a city, a county or a com- munity when the conditions are fully understood. To obtain the knowledge that is necessary for intelligent and effective effort is the object of the social survey. i A writer in the Progressive Farm- er makes a plea for rural survey work in the south and points out some notable instances where these surveys have been made. The University of ‘Wisconsin, the Ohio board of agricul- ture and the Presbyterian commission on country life are cited as having engaged in this line of endeavor with and results. These organizations make their surveys by counties, and the in- vestigations bring out a great array of Information, The county survey means an inves- tigation of the school, the churches, the roads, the social opportunities, the facilities for marketing, the conditions on the farms, the tenantry, the In- fluences that make for rural -uplift and those which tend.to rural decline. The correspondent of the Progressive Farmer says: “A rural survey would be an index to progress. It would show the lines of farming that were profitable; it would create a spirit of rivalry be- tween countles; 1t would show condi- tlons as they are and probably help locate the reason of the migration from farm to town and help check the same. “Many of the problems of rural life have not been touched at all, but these will ultimately come into sight and be solved. We have soil surveys, min- eral surveys, geological surveys and other kinds of surveys .with which people are familiar. Why not have a rural survey and find out the real condition of the people living in rural communities and systematically go about helping make these conditions ideal?” The value of such surveys is evi- dent. Where efficiently made they show the strong points and the weak points of the county. In a movement for general betterment they are of great service and should prove as use- ful in the south as they have been in the north.—Louisville Courier-Journal. SWAT THE SPARROW TOO. Flies and This Bird Belong In Same Class as Nuisances. To the slogan of “Swat the fly!” might well be added that of “Kill the sparrow!”~ Flies and sparrows belong in the same class as nuisances and menaces to health, Most' birds deserve to be protected for some service they perform, but when all the evidence has been sub- mitted in the sparrow’s case it will stand . condemned. - Perhaps it occa- slonally eats a harmful worm, but the greater part of its food is of grain. Then it is the constant enemy of na- tive birds, which, unlike itself, live mostly on worms and insects that are injurious to trees and crops. % ‘Wherever European civilization has gone this pest bird has gone with it. There were no sparrows in America until they were imported from Eng- land to free shade trees of caterpillars, and this they have ever since refused to do. For many years the sparrow was un- known except in the towns, and it gained the name of “town bird.” But: in later years it has spread all over the country until now it is probably a greater nuisance on the farm than in the city. The sparrow’s habit of liv- ing always near settlements and in sheltered places makes it a most pro- lific bird. It is almost independent of the seasons in breeding. The sparrow helps to spread diseases by building nests upon or near houses. Bullding on houses Is especially a menace to health in the country, where people catch water from the roofs to fill their cisterns, Make Your Main Street Attractive, If a town's leading thoroughfare is attractive and up to date it indicates that the community is thriving and prosperous. If the reverse is true It usually follows that something is rad- {cally amiss wlth ‘the progressiveness: of the citizens, . If the merchants and public spirited members of a commu- nity would seek by organized effort to correct abuses, such-as il looking ‘waste places, ugly signs or dilapidated building fronts, much could be done to make the visitor take away a pleasant and lasting Impression, which in the aggregate would have the effect of in- creasing the town's prosperity, besides making beautifi what had been be- s fore i1l favored and ugly. 5 Chrysanthemums. Inquiries have lately come in regard- ing chrysanthemum cuttings, division of old plants, etc. Cuttings should not be put in later than June. That is also the best time to_divide old clumps, being sure to cut off all the tops they now have: At first the plants only need be watered enough to keep them from standing still. with no fertilizing bat all. When they are growing vigor- ously, a couple of months_ later, begin to manure and water them more heay- ily, increasing both until the first buds show color, after which' they need an abundance of water, but no more fer- tilizer.

Human bones are really tremen: dously strong and possessed of a mar- velous resisting power. Imdeed, the bones of the frallest, most delicate looking woman are stronger than the strongest’ oak. Of course,’a bone is hollow, and that 18 one of the chief reasons it resists such extreme weights. For instance, & small bone which is no more than a square millimeter in diameter wiil hold in suspension without breaking some 35 pounds, while a stick of best oak of similar width will not hold more than 20 pounds. Indeed, the average bone of the average man ia stronger by one-half than that of solid oak. Lots on easy terms. The principle on which our bones are constructed, being made hollow and consequently stronger than if they. were golid and heavier, is the game mechanics have followed - the werld over. Construction engineers employ tubes instead of solid cylinders. In the case of animals thousands of years ago one reason of their bulky frame is attributed by scientists as due to the fact their bones were solid and added to their weight. Should Copy the Kangaroo. A German physician, Dr. Klaatsch, recently read a paper at Breslau, on the influence of the upright posture upon mankind, in which he arrived at the conclusion that “die beutelratte, that is the kangaroo, has been more successful and fortunate in adapting itself to the bipedal handicap .of the erect posture than has humankind. The medical assumption that though man, who, perhaps, in the remotest an. tiquity, wss a quadrupedal animal, did at some vague period succeed in adapt- ing himself to a bipedal condition, it was not until he was overtaken by civ- {lization that bipedal infirmities came ¥ make everything “just so.” Sometimes you will fe’c l}\’ar:oc::s;:!nw:nyl:m than usual; or make the batter a little thin; or It mlxed ur oven may not bake evenly and it is necessary to turn the pinmnd—nm of these little uncertainties make the slightest IKC Baking PowDER ‘This modern, double-raise baking powder has unusual strength and 1s absolutely certain to raise your hiscults, cakes and pastry fight and feathery.
