In Farm and Fireside a writer says: “\When the town of Mitchellville, Ia., with a population of 900, decid- ed on a general clean-up, & woman arose in meeting and promised the help of the women in every way pos- sible. She suggested that perhaps about all they could do would be to cook a plenic dinner. . Whereupon one man arose and gave it as his opinion that inasmuch as Towa was in a fair way to have equal suffrage :shortly and the Mitchellville women had been insistent upon it, he, for one, thought the women ought to work alongside the men on clean-up day. And work they aid! “While other towns were content, on such occasions, to remove the un- sightly ash heaps that disfigured back yards and otherwise make more pre- sentable the general municipal ap-- pearance, the Mitchellville workers decided there was. no reason why every able-bodied man and woman should not put in ten good, solid hours’ work on the roads leading intg the town. “Roads, they argued, were a coun- txy town‘s principal asset, as with- out them the country trade, which kept the town prosperous, was not forthcoming. What if there were an ash heap left at night, wollld it not be better to have a few miles of good roadway all completed, so the farmers could come in with produce and go back with their wagons and automobiles filled with all sorts of store goods? “So men and women alike 'of Mitchellyille worked all day long, though the sun was hot and the work was hard. Today the Mitchellyille speedway, six miles long, is a monu- ment to the efforts of the men and women of Mitchellville who decided that a clean-up day should mean some- thing more than just idle talk and newspaper publicity.” Toads. There is ncthing very attractive looking about toads. If you should find-‘one “of the homely littie fellows: plants do not allow anyone to disturb , him, as they are invaluable to farm- ‘ers and gardeners. They , destroy many insects and bugs that would oth- erwise ruin plants. * 'FUNERAL SERVICES. Rev. A. M.
