THE FARMER 'AND THE VILLAGE Some examples of leadership in this re-pect are recorded by the department of Agriculture, which has been studying the probUm of village planning from the stanpoint of its importance to the rural community and particularly t the farmer. It is more a? a buying than a selling place that the farmer makes use of the village. Ia marketing his principal products he generally deals with some large distribu; ( g center. But purchaser his household supplies in the village. He goes there for amusement and for social purposes generally. His children often go to school there. An attractive villages, says the de partment, is an .important in fluence in stabilizing farm life and in counteracting the attrac tions which cities have for the young people of the farms. As the farmer's chief point of con tract with outside interests, the village can make a big contribu tion to the happiness of farm life, even if it be considered from no other standpoint that the fact that it is the place where the farmer spends a large part of his income.

LORD ROTHERMERE'S WAGER L?rd Rothermere, brother of 'the late Lord Northciffe, million aire owner of a chain of news Dapars. has done something he may be sorry for. He has ac cepted a challenge, at the age of 56, to take a schoolboy's genera' knowledge examination. If he fails to grade 75 per cent h agrees to pay a thousand pounds to the labor party and if he wins his challenger. W. C. Cove, president of ehe national union of teachers, agrees to pay 300 pounds to the Newspaper Fund. The challenge and its accept ance grew out of a criticism made by the Daily Mail of questions asked Engli-h school children and the low grades they scored. In his comebacK Mr. Cove offered to ask Rothermere 18 general qt.es tifns and give him seven arith metic problems to work. It is by no means certain the titled Englishman can pass the test as well as he thinks. There is a tendency on the part of adults these days to underesti mate present day school work and present day juvenile ability. It is nut up to the standard of the "good old days," many think. Yet two years we had a spelling contest at the Rotary club in Pendleton and that theory din not hold up. Four very youth ful lads from the Washington school outspelled a picked quar tet from the Rotarians including a former high school professor, a newspaper man, a doctor and a college graduate. Lord Rothermere may find his 18 general questions and his arithmetic problems more baff ling than he supposes. East Oregonian. Now booking orders for day old chicks.

Diphtheria Prevention Because antitoxin was not available, many peeple died from diphtheria at Nome. ' Because parents often delay in calling a doctor when a child has a .sore throat or croup Vith membranes nrespnt. nntilnvin ia nft.m t- 1ut r ' -r -.vniu aw vi,vii m law to save the cnild's. life. There is only one way that the children of Nome or of your town or any other town can be protected against having diphth - eria, unit mat is oy naving toxin antitoxin as a preventive treat ment. The Schick test is painless and harmless tiny injection into the skin which definitely shows whether or not children are im mune' to diphtheria, that is, whether they are naturally safe from the disease. We can all know whether or not we are im mune to diphtheria. But that is only the beginning. If ve are not immune, we can be made so by what is known as the toxin-antitoxin treatment. This treatmeut consists in inject ing under the skin three small doses of dhtheria toxin-antit-oxen, a pure and entirely harm less product Three injections make ns immune to diphtheria. The prevention of diphtheria is not a fad. It is proven Bafe and certain procedure. -State Board of Health. The Small Town Beautiful Where villages are being made more beautiful, the impetus has come in nearly every case from local initiative. Villages that have well-planned streets, attractive recreation spots, and pleasing approaches are nearly ways iudebted for these ad vantages to the energy and public spirit of some small group of citizens. Under such insoii ation dump heaps have been turned into garden spots, unsightly shacks and dilapidated stores haVe been torn dowu and replaced by smart, substantial business buildings, and extensive pro grams of landscape gardening and tree planting have been undertaken. Villages that have embarked on this path are find ing that beauty pays. It im proves local business and'attracts tourist business. It enhances real estate values, and has n . . . powenui mnuence in raising in dividual standards of efficiency and enlerpnse.-U. S. Degart ment of Agriculture.

You can cut your machinery cost in half by prolong ing its life anq usefulness. You can double the life ot an implement by putting it under cover as soon as you are through using it The cost of an implement shed to protect $2,000.00 worth of machinery is only a fraction of that sum. We have many excellent implement slrd plans to show you, and we hive the right material to build just the kind and size building you -require. Do not make the mistake of building before you examine our up-to-date implement shed plans, we will be glad to have you call and examine them, whether you are building now or later.
