.art #W,i We Return Restored to Fao© Anew the Responsibilities of Life . ^ jf'i. i By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN, Chicago Write*. , ?re This is the time of year when the call of the wflfl ••li btwd by the city dweller even above the roar of the struggle for existence. The call is pretty much the same to all of us. Nature's persistent message, which we cannot escape, is something like this: "Come and play! Drop work! You have lived the strenuous life long enough. You know the penalty I exact for all work and no play. Pause, take taettfr, relax, rest!* ' " 1 / - Yes; the call is much the same to all of us. But its interpretation varies according to our knowledge and experience. Those of ue ate fortunate to whom ' ji^e means one thing only--whether it is the fashionable summer ^Ijesort, or the automobile tour, or foreign travel, or the magic glow of the «amp fire upon the gleaming tent, or the lure of the rushing stream where Ittde the trout, or the spell of the mountain trail to the peaks of ever- | lasting snow. > But many of us are not so fortunate. To the unfortunate the call ffears no clear message. They rejoice at the prospect of a holiday, but Ihey do not know where or at what to play. They do not know what to do with their playtime. The annual spectacle of a people at play includes Jfche saddening sight of thousands getting little enjoyment and less rest-- Ijrasting their precious vacation days. f. Let us not be of these unfortunates. Let us mix brains with our fpay. Let us put common sense into our vacation plans. Lfet us profit % the successes and failures of past vacations. Let us play temperately. Jpt is easy to make the play too strenuous. On the qther hand, mere idling ||oe8 not bring rest a* compared with a change of occupation in different Environment In short, the right sort of vacation is a godsend, while the wrong may be worse than none. To come back from our playtime to rest from our play--that's one thing. To return with renewed strength fmd courage--that's another and a very different story. Let us therefore flay wjrfly. So shall we return to our work refreshed and restored and with determination to faoe anew the responsibilities of life. y BEEFPROWCERS Opto Stable for Cattle With Feed .^iv: Storage Above, WlLt BE 0000 INVESTMENT ^><!SdJi>!H»ffig5Z5E5€5Sg5Z!5ig5HSrgSg5H5B5S5S5Z52SB5g5Z5Z5g52SZ5Z5S5Z5Z525S5Z P. of L.

Our convention the representatives of labor rose to the full height of its dignity on that issue and took its stand for freedom. After years of propaganda, particularly intensified during the last year, the campaign for soviet putocracy was crushed in defeat. . ;y Every possible effort has been made to win support for the soviet Autocracy. Not a single local union has been overlooked by the propagandists for soviet brutality. But our convention emerged from that «gloud of deeeit and stood true to American principles. With their arguments literally torn to shreds, the supporters of the HWviet horror mustered at the end hnt a handful of votes. The trade 0Biion movement has again demonstrated its clear vision, unflinching jRDurage and faithful devotion to American ideals. The victory over this propaganda which has had for its object the fMstruction of the American labor movement, as a condition precedent to Jtfee destruction of the free government of the American people, is a victory of the most vital importance to the American people.

Comparatively hljfh prices for meat animals and low prices for grain and feed have made breeding and feeding livestock a profitable business during the last year. At least, farmers are getting a great deal higher price for the grain they produce* by "marketing it on the hoof' than by selling It as grain. Of course, during the summer the cattle or hogs are allowed to run in the feed lots, where forage is plentiful and the self-feeders supply the fatmaking rations that the animals require in addition to the grass they get from the pasture. But in winter a weather-proof stable is necessary to protect the animals from the cold winds, which take their vitality and force them to use up much of the food they consume for bodily warmth. height the im'Mttg; gives target storage space falthe mow. The building may be mt on either a concrete or stone foundation, and the floor may be either of concrete or of cinders. In either event it should be so constructed that there will be good drainage, as the floor should be kept dry. The self-feeders are not secured to the floor, but are loose so that they may be moved at will. Removable partitions also can be Included so that a part of the stable may be partitioned If the owners deem it necessary. The building Is of frame construction, the lumber used being of the first class so that the barn will be weathertight. Such a bam as this will be a good Investment for those farmers who Want to make the most from their cattle feeding operations. Before deciding on such a building, however, it is best to consult the local contractor and material dealer, either or both of whom can give a good idea of what this building will cost. Prices of materials and labor vary in different sections, and much depends on local conditions.

The deduction, then, is just this: Porter had occasion to use such a book; was struck by the brevity and oddity of the name of the authors; wanted a fictitious writing signature and adopted that of "O.

There Is nothing more curious In the make-up of mankind than the matter of having a head for climbing about at great heights. Some children are born with it. and are like monkeys or squirrels, in that they never know what it Is to be giddy. But cases of this sort are very rare and, as a rule, a long apprenticeship Is required before anyone can stand or work unconcernedly on tall buildings, or climb high mountains. Edward Whymper, one of the greatest mountaineers who ever lived, and the leader of the first party to ascend the Matterhorn had, as a boy a wretched head. He could not stand on a house roof without holding on. He cured himself by lying on the ledge of the great tower of the cathedral of Notre Dame ir Paris, and staring down Into the street for an hour at a time, Most steeplejacks and bridge-builders have to become educated to heights in similar fashion. Some people are affected by running water as others are by heights, and are not to be trusted on the edge of a swift river. Quite against their will, they are forced to walk over the edge. The whole question of giddiness Is a puzzle.

With a view to organizing accounting records so that all unnecessary clerical work may be eliminated, the United States Department of Agriculture has devfsed new forms of accounting, which are now published in Department Bulletin 1006, Accounting Records for Sampling Apples by Weight. The aim of sampling apples by weight Is to speed up the movement of the fruit through the packing room, and to avoid the expense of repiling and checking which frequently arises !n attempting to retain the identity of each grower's lot of loose fruit on the packing-house floor. A sample is selected from each lot of fruit received. This is graded and slxed, and a record made of the weight of each grade and size in the sample. The percentage relation of the total weight of the sample to the total weight of the lot Is then applied to ascertain the weight of the various grades and sizes that make up the lot, and the grower Is given credit for the total weight, classified as to grades and sizes. The new forms devised by the department reduce the clerical work of the sample-test clerk to minimum, providing computation tables showing at a glance the relation between the various features of the sample and those of the entire lot. Copies of the bulletin may be had free upon application to the department at Washington, D. C.

SPRAYING FOR GOOD APPLES Abeolutely Necessary for Select Fruit --•Pruning Means Cutting Out Small Limbs. Most of the home orchards need pruning and they need spraying, but they need spraying lots the worst. You can raise apples Without pruning, but you can't raise good apples without spraying. Unless you spray, you get mincemeat--part apples and part worm--which Is all right If one la built for It. A tree can't bear any more fruit than there is bearing surface and the fellow who gouges out big limbs is the fellow who greatly reduces the apple crop. Good pruning does not always mean a big brush pile; It more frequently means cutting off small limbs here and there that compete for sunlight. Pruning will make more large apples.
