Cooling under modem methods and con
veniences is made so attractive the whole
family is becoming interested.
"These biscuits are delicious; this cake is
excellent," says the father. "I made them,"
says the daughter, and both father and
daughter beam with pleasure.
Royal Baking Powder has made home
baking a success, a pleasure and a profit, and
the best cooking today the world over is
done with its aid.
Respect and Obedience Are j
I Unknown to Our Youth $
By Dr. WILLIAM H. TOLMAN. f
Director of the American Museum of Safety
I SENT my son abroad to be educated because there are three
things he can learn there that he can't learn here to study,
to be respectful and to be obedient RESPECT AND OBE
DIENCE PARTICULARLY ARE UNKNOWN TO THE
AMERICAN YOUTH.
BY THE THOROUGHNESS OF THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM
ABROAD THEY TURN OUT THINKERS, NOT INTELLECTUAL MA
CHINES. IT HAS BEEN OUR HABIT TO 8END OUR BOYS TO EU
ROPE TO PUT THE FINISHING TOUCHES ON THEM. THIS HAS
BEEN OUR MISTAKE. IT IS OVER THERE WHERE THEY SHOULD
HAVE THE FOUNDATION LAID. THE SUPERIORITY IN EDUCATION
COMES IN THE PREPARATORY AND PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
In this country a young man goes to college for one of two rea
sons, lie has either a definite plan in view or he goes because his
father went before bim.
It is all in LAYING THE FOUNDATION. In this country
the boy's book is a fetish. In Europe it is a tool. It is a means to an
end. Ilere our boys hare a lesson to learn. They study it in a per
functory manner without regard to what has gone before. When they
have finished the book THEY PROCEED TO FORGET IT.
Over there they study a book until they have MASTERED IT, all
the while getting the culture and breadth of view. They are grounded
in the fundamentals. The training draws out what is in a boy.
While being educated the boy is TAUGITT RESPECT AND
OBEDIENCE TO HIS ELDERS. You take the average child here
living in a hotel. lie goes to the table with his parents, and the first
thing he does is to grab the menu and forget entirely that he has a
father or mother until reminded that they, too, have come to the table
to eat. In Europe a boy bands the menu to his father. When out
walking, if they come to a gate, the boy opens it and waits for hi9
father to pass. In all those little attentions the boys there are letter
perfect. Here the American youth is sadly lacking in all of them.
The Baking Question
is the one you had better leave
to us. Why worry and per
spire over a hot oven when
you can get such fine bread
from us at a less cost than
you can bake it yourself for.
Make us your baker and spend
the time saved in some more
enjoyable way. That is what
wise women all over town are
doing.

AN ILLINOIS INQUIRY.
An Illinois render of these note

considerable debt. He asks spcvlnVal

course for blm to follow In getting the
place paid for as soou as possible, lu
the long run we believe our friend will
fare best if In working out hla problem
he adopts thnt type of farming which
will tend to increase and conserve the
fertility of his soil. The roost effective
means of doing this Is to take up dairy

If he buys the best cows he can get

that he will know Just what to expect
from them. Tn picking his rows It will
be best to select that breed which Is
the most numerous In the locality In
which his farm is located, for It Is
more the man than the breed In the
case of three or four of the leading
dairy types. To do best with bis dairy
he should have a alio, and If his farm

tons of finest forape per acre when
once It gets established, will dovetail
tn nicely with the silage. Hogs should
accompany the dairy and will make it
possible to manage It most economical

the sklmmllk kept at home.
As to the query about popcorn, we
would say that In a general way pop
corn yields about one-half as much as

that any considerable acreage of pop

with a drill In early spring on rich
land as free as possible from weed

thinned to two Inches apart when six
or seven Inches high. If the seed Is
not very thick the thinning may be
dispensed with. In which case the
onlous will be small, but of Just as
good quality. From 400 to 700 bushels
may be raised per acre, depending
npon conditions, and to raise the crop
will cost from $r0 to $S0. From 40
cents to $1 a bushel may be got for

ARE AFTER EASTERN FARMS.
With prime farm lands In north cen
tral states advancing in value In the
past fifteen months all the way from
$15 to $40 per acre, a decided move
ment has set In along the Une of a
purchase of cheap New England farms
many of which have passed hands In
recent years for a good deal less than
It would take to erect the buildings on
them. There Is one big advantage In
these New England farms, entirely
apart from fertility of soil, which may
be little or much, and that Is their
nearness to big markets and a large
body of consumers. While the writer
would not suggest the purchase of
these eastern farms without personal
ly Inspecting them any more than he
would farms located In Texas or Ore
gon, he Is of the opinion that at the
prices at which many of them can be
bought they are well worth looking Into.
ARE 8PARED FOREST FIRE3.
It Is a matter concerning which all
people of the country feel gratitude,
both those who would have been di
rectly as well as Indirectly concerned,
that so far this season there have been
practically no forest fires In any part
of the country. In any event. If there
have been such report of them has
not been made In the newspapers of
the country. Without question this
satisfactory condition referred to has
been chiefly due to an unusually heavy
fall of rain In most of those states
where extensive forest areas are lo
cated. Added to this is doubtless the
fact thst method of organization and
equipment of one kind or other for
fighting fires have been perfected,
while the heavy loss from forest fires
