Long Neglected by the Govenmment By GEORCE W. PERKINS We have millions upon millions of dollars in elab orate and conveniently arranged railway terminals for the sccommodation of passengers; we have established public-service commissions-all that people may travel more conveniently and haze their rights while travel ing better protected, both as to safety and the cost of of tranlsportation. Yet while all this has been done for passenger travel, scarcely any any money has been spent and practically no thought given or planning done in c(,nlin(etion with the great (lustion of how to get into the citie- and di-triibute within the cities the food which we consume. The mnore one looks into the problem the more amazed he is that such neglect should have existed. While the average per-on spends frornm 4 to 5(0 per cent of hip income for food, he spends only about 10 per cent of his income for trans portation; yet private transportation c(ompanies and the city governments have been spending millions of dollars to look after the people's trans portation interests while giving little or no time or money to their welfare in the matter of food. The same old cutthroat, ruthless competitive methods exist today that have always existed-a policy of every fellow for himself and the devil take the hindmost. Only recently has any attention whatever been given in our educa tional system to the all-important qucetion of how to buy food, how to care for it, how to cook it, the nutritive value of various foods, and all that sort of thing. In fact. the whole question has been well-nigh neg lected. This is true of practically e'cry state in the Union, with the excerption of ('alifornia. It is high time we realized that we face an entirely new condition and prepare ourselves to ,meet it intclligently and resolutely. Europe ha-: been up against this problem for a long time. $SLe knows what co-opera lion and conservation are; she kniows the necessity for saving the waste in order to effect economies: she has found out that evils are bound to exist in co-operative effort because of the selfishness and the greedy tend encies of many men to take advantage of any opportunity that offers: but through governmental regulation and supervisi'c she has found it possible to eradicate many of these evils while preserving much of the good that conies through co-operative undertakings. This is our problem. If we are ready for it, then with our ability and resourcefulness we can unquestionably solve it. If we are not ready for it, then we will have to go on stumbling blindly along a rough road that will get rougher and rougher. The problem is intensely fascinating, decidedly practical. Co-operative Combinations Necessary for Development of Foreign Commerce By JOHN aCAUSEN Meya Foeugs Depaurate Cieckar Nuisal SmSee Fsaico Just now we are living in an epoch of great prosperity, in a way artificially stimulated by the demand for materials from the nations at war. Whether the advantages thus gained will be upheld depends largely on the skill and acumen of our bankers to wisely use their money power, and in the farsightedness of our merchants to strive for gnat diversifica tion of exports and imports. It is apparent that it will take something sore than the offering of goods to build up and hold the trade which we are now in position to con troL We should look ahead to future conditions-be prepared to meet aggressive European trade combinations and keep pace with 'the world's industrial advancement. Co-operative combinations such as may be deemed expedient to develop our foreign relations in normal times, are essential, and should in no sense be considered a contractional restraint of free trading. A recognition of' this principle in oversea trade development is, in my opin ion, most necessary to our economic progress. Such privileges very natu rally should only be accorded American-owned comcerns, and co-operative organizations must obviously be prosecuted. If the claims for superiority of American goods are made aggressive realities-and careful, direct and persistent efforts exercised by American afaeturers ,in their introduction and exploitation, it should not be diEcult to make permanent our present premaine~ t position in world It.appeamrs that to advantageously maintain nr place in the inte amtimll relatiems, we need not only an eicient banking system and a ,ellequipped merchant marine, but, more especially, seentife comme aeialedation.

It means that you must accomplish the greattst amount of work possible with thie least effort and smallest amount of capital. It is not confined to any one indus try, but covers them all, including the farm. In the days past the farm er. who w antied i barn, too often erect ed the, walls andi covered them with a roof. Many times the barn was Ibuilt regardless of how\ quick it would anahi)l the farllme'r later to do the work ie had to ict in this b:rn.

YtUDAULtY *HM4IlCALICY* Floor Plan. Of the barn, but considerable work is required to get the silage to some other part of the barn where consider able of it is used. This is not effi ciency, for though you have perhaps wasted no money in the construction of the silo, you -are daily unnecessarily wasting much of your working ef fort. The silo mmy not only be located In conveniently with respect to the places ,where the silage la used. By neglect ing suffcent forethought the design may be decided, on, and after the struc ture is completed it is realized that its capacity is too small. It is just as eheap to build a silo in the right place .as in the wrong, and it costs but little more to build it large enough rather than too small. Additions later are :much more expensive than the same ,thing would be if included in the orig ;nal building. These are but a few of the many ;inemdent things which might be done in putting up farm buildings. In or dier to save on the osiginal cost many things may be left out which ae :great lime, thus money-savers. Money should wisely be invested In such time-saving -devices. The money, represented by work which can be saved in the long ran, will show a nice profit on the small extra investment necessary for me-saving installations. In a dairy barn, as well as all ,th er, the comfort of the cattle, borses and other animals should be given con tiderable thought. They are Just like a ma. Under better cma tieons the eattle thrive more. Salntatio, makes them less susceptible to disease. Let es say you lose two nice tows daring the year from disease. That repre seats a loss to you of perhaps $150 to $200. Wouldn't it have been better to spend this $2,000 for construction in your baum which would make it more sanitary and disease-resisting? A During the Jret year you would make up for this $8M extra cost by not los- d Ing the cews, and during the second d and each seeesadve year you would be $200 ahead per year. The thing in selecting a design for your barn is this: Forget the first cost and think of the things which will make It convenient for you to work in, and sanitary and comfortable for your E cattle. If you cannot get the first-cost i idea out of your mind, remember these t things. You have perhaps botrrowed 01 some of the money for your barn from t the bank. You must pay them back tE and make more besides for yourself., a If you include sanitary and convenient a things in your design you can pay the 1( bank quicker and make larger profits for yourself. The dairy barn, of which a ground plan and perspective view are here ti shown, will accommodate 80 cows. The alo is feet in diameter and will be 9! toima to " suselent capep ty fr - silage to accommodate all the cattle. As shown In this view, the silo is built of wood. Hollow tile, concrete blocks, or re-enforced concrete, how ever. can he used equally as well. With the Idea of making it possible to go quickly from one part of the barn to another sliding doors have been put in at all four corners and in the oppo site end from the silo there is a door in the middle besides those on either side of this end. The grotulld floor is of concrete, which always makes a barn as sani tary as it possibly can he. It has a gambrel roof, which does :iway with the rafters and other members of a truss w hich take ilp much of the space in the loft of a harn. The feed alley is coniveniently ln entel in the mIiddle of the barn. This piermtits of easily dlislributing the sil age to the mangers on either side of ihe alley. C'oncrete gutters are built in the floor in back of the cow stalls on eitlher side of the barn. In back of ithese gutters are the llanure larrier tracks. conveniently located so that the refuse in the gutters (an he directly picked up and carried out. The dimaensions of the cow stalls can be made according to the ideas of the builder. In some places it is cus tomary to build all of the stalls " feet 62 inches wide, and have 5 feet betw&een the gutter and the manger. In other localities the stalls on one side would be made -I feet 6 inches long. and on the other 5 feet long. The length of the stalls are made to vary in Itijs way so a, to accommodate the different lengths of the cows houIedl in the barn. There are stanchions wade which are adjiNutable so that they can take from or add to the length of the stall, t; itches or so. In case these are going to he used, all stalls can be mute the same length. IThis particular barn was tlesigned for a country where the winters are ratther mild and the cows can spend a good deal of time in the cow yard rather than in the barn, as they would if in a cold climate. It would be found best if the front of the barn could face the south or I east. This would give the cows the advantage of the nice morning sun and protect them from the north and west winds during the colder months of the year.

It was "Goethe who said that "none but husband and wife can with pro priety be partners in the waltz." Be and the rest of society had been used to the square dance such as the Scotch reel, the minuet, the old-fashioned cotillon and a host of rather simple steps known as country dances. What would dear did Goethe have said had he seen the dances of nowadays or :a year or so ago? Would he, like the author of a quaint little book called Etiquette for Ladies, With Hints on the Preservation, Improvement and Display of Female Beauty, published -some i years age, have said that he "summed up his advice In regard to the cholce of dances, by warning them agalnst the Introduction of the new fangled fashions of this sort." In this quaint little book on decorum one ends this advice- "Let our Ameri can fair also turn away from the al meat equally unchaste dances of the southern kingdoms of Europe, and, content with the gay step of France, and the active merriment of England and Scotland, with their own festive movements continue their native balls to their blameless delight, and to the satileation of every tasteful and benevolent observer."

That sla to say he does not do enough different kinds of things. The tired business man suffers from all the evil consequences of early specialization.

The essential difference be tween one of these people or a healthy child and a "tired business man" lies in the wide range of problems alnd ac tivities that can interest the former as against the narrow interests and sym pathies of the latter. It should be part of our aim In the training of children to keep open for them all the fines of communimcation with Ideas and feelings that may come to them. 0 This is not a passive affair. Ideas and feelings do not come to us because we sit still. The child must learn to go teith and meet the new experience a little more than half way.

Mr. Norton was a very patient man and a long-suffering one. Mrs. Norton provided a continuous flow of conver sation and was known as a nag. Final ly, the nerves of the poor man gave way and the physician was called. "He must have complete rest and undis turbed sleep," said the doctor, as he looked thoughtfully at the woman. "I will send up some sleeping powders, which must be used exactly as whitten on the box. Will you promise to do this, madam, or must I order him to the hospital?" "Indeed, I promise," cried Mrs. Norton, cheerfully. "I will give them just as you direet, doctor." When the box came from the drug gist's the label read: "Sleeping pow dersa to be taken night and morning by Mrs. Norton." "SisterlyN Kiss. "No," said she, "I-I can only be a sister to you."

We went to the painter's house that night I was eager for quick action, but the manager seemed quite lacka daisical. Instead of talking Insurance right away he picked up a flaxen-haired youngster toddling about the floor and began trottlng him on hls knee, at the same time assuring the mother that the child's eyes were exactly the same shade as those of a nephew of his out in Des Moines. After the boy had gone to sleep in his arms, the mana ger began talking Insurance, and I was amazed at the ease with which he signed up the painter.
