Some of the Prominent Features^ GOING TO THE FARM HOMES Thirteen Campaign* Have Been Car rled on In Mlchlflan, Ohio and 1 1 1 1 nole? Holden'e Plan Meets Warm Reception With the Farmers. Prof. P. 'J. lloiduo, director of the Agricultural Kxtenblon Department of the Jnternullonul Harvester Company of Now Jofk??y, )iKH phllltud atld put Into O pur fit Ion a new method of ex pending agricultural knowledge. Ifold<'ii wuh tho originator of ugrl cultural demonstration trains; of ag ricultural uhort courses^ and many ^jther effective plans, through the , agency of wltlcli irt 1 1 1 Ion u of dollars have been added to tho agricultural wealth of tlila country. Th? latent plan of Holden is to place alfalfa upon every farm. Them j are throe prominent features in his plan: (1) The introduction of a. compara tively new crop into the Corn | Belt, Southern and Kaatern | states. (2) Going dir?ret- to the homes of the farmers, where meetings are 1 held in the fields, and buccobs : nnd failure discussed according to local conditions.. (3) The usq of that most modern vo hicle ? the automobile. Purpose of Campaign. . ... ^ Tho primary purpose of tho cam paign is to show the American farmer that alfalfa in tho most profitable crop Jili can grow; that it can be grown profitably upon every farm; that It en- ; riches tin* Boil; increaseB farm values; j Btimulates live stock growing and dai rying; produces double that of other hay crops, and is better feed. Thirteen campaigns have thus far been Huccesafully conducted in Mich igan, Ohio and Illinois. Some of the Results. * Results of the Kent county (Mlsh.) campaign are: (1) Six thousand farmers visited at thpir homos during u five-day campaign. (2) Thirty-two meetings held. (3) Three hundred and seventy-flva miles traveled by the Alfalfa Au- ? tomobile Train, (4) One hundred and thirty-six alfalfa talks made by the Holden staff of alfalfa lecturers. (5) Many applications for similar cam paigns from all parte of tin ? United States. The Kent county campaign has been followed by campaigns in Allegan, j Harry, Grand Traverse and St. (Mali countieH, Michigan; Van Wert; Marion,; Fulton, Williams and Champaign coun 1 ties. Ohio; and Sangamon, DuPago and Kane counties, Illinois. Great Meeting In Ohio. ? At ono meeting in Ohio upon the farm of Joseph E. Wing, noar Mechan*i icsburg, nearly 4,00ft people gathered froin all parts of Ohio and adjoining states to learn more about alfalfa.' At this great meeting the Ohio State Al falfa Growers' association was organ ized. Over 300 automolles tnade uj the alfalfa train.. It is recorded a4 ? the greatest agricultural assemblagfi in the history of Ohio. Other Ohw ; counties where the work has 'been taken up report success on everj j hand. Sangamon and Kane counties, I Hi- ; nois, have both conducted groat cam- i paigns. At ono meeting in Williams j villa, 111., over 1,200 farmers came to hear the alfalfa lecturers. In all of theao campaigns which' were conducted within a period o! , about two months nearly 60,000 farm- 1 erR have been reached with the gos* ! pel of alfalfa. As a result also of the campaign' work it is conservatively estimated i that 200,000 acres of alfalfa will be i seeded during this and the coming season. Such is the result of the initial work of campaigning for alfalfa, but vastly ; rnoro than this tangible result haa ; been accomplished. Every farmer ! throughout the region where the work, was conducted is talking ai , falfa. The co-operation of the school? : in the territory la a very important and effective feature. School officials from the highest to the lowest, havu never failed to appreciate the oppor tunity. Professor Holden has expressed himself :i? considering It the most wonderful experience and the most beneficial trip from the farm stand- ! point that he h;u> ever taken. But this is not ull ? wherever the! farmers of any community are inter-' estrd in the growing of alfalfa, when possible a follow-up man. thorough in his knowledge of alfalfa culture, will1 bo sent out to assist them in Ketting a start. He will live with the - farmers and aid them in solving the problems at home. ll? will ; p "rom farm to farm upon re ?iuoi.; nut) ftudy ??eces3 and failure. 4 TJr'erf the coming of 19.14 cam-; - 'v:!l have been conducted in !

The Whole of Man'* Personal Activity It a Mere Preliminary to the Wife'e Activity- ? Money le Made to Spend. Your imagination, once set in mo i ion, will show yot? that your conjugal existence. la divided into two K&ut do partments tb? getting and the upend Iiik depart menta. Word# worth chant id t hut in getting und spending we lay waste <>ur ye are. We could not j lay waste our your* in a more satib ly ing manner. Th? two, departments J uHUuiilly ^liidi.HpaJJ.sttbk'i, buluucu each | Other You organig^u them. You made yourself tin? head of one and your wile the head of the other. You ! might, of course, have organized them j otherwise. It wan open to you, in the j Hottentot Ktyle, to decree that your! wife shouud do the earning while you j did the upending. Hut for some mys I teiiouH reason this arrangement <ild ! not appeal tq you and you accordingly : go fortli dally to thu olJlce and return ! therefrom with money. The theory I of your daily excursion Is firmly baaed { In the Inherent nature of things. The J theory 1b made In order that money may he spent ? either at onco or later. The whole of your own personal ac tivity la a mere preliminary to your wife's activity. Without hers, yours would bo absurd, rkilculous, futile, su premely silly.. Hy upending she completes and jus tifies your labor; she crowns your life by spending. You married her that she might spend. You wanted some ono to spend, and it was understood that she should fill the situation^ She was brought up to spend, and you knew that she Was brought up to spend. Spdhding is her vocation. And yet you turn round on her and com plain: "She only thinks of spending!" Kxercise your imagination to put yourself in your wife's place, and you will perceive that she is constantly in the highly delicate difllcully of having to ask for money, or at any rate, of having to suggest or insinuate that m ey should be given to her. It is her right and even her duty to ask for money, but the foolish, illogical ? creature? -like most women, even those with generous and polite hus bands ? regarjls the process as a. little humiliating for herself. You have per haps never asked for money. Hut your imagination "will probably bo able to make you feel how it feels to ask for money. A woman whose business in life is to spend money which she does not and cannot earn, may sometimes have to face a refusal when she asks for money. Hut there is one thing from which she ought to be absolutely and eternally safe ? and that is a snub. ? Arnold Bennett, in the Metropolitan Magazine. Arm in Arm? Well, Perhaps. For bettor, for worse, for richer, for poorer, the female of a bygone century who fluttered on a strong man's arm Is very nearly extinct In America. The male of today is lucky If b? -4s not walloped on the tennis court, out swum, outgolfed and outwalked. On that most crucial of all occasions when old fashions come most to the fore, a bride sometimes succeeds in trembling like a leaf or looking faint or suggesting by some ingenious manner a posture or speech that she Ib a poor, weak, defenseless thing. Hut the attitude seldom lasts beyond the church door. So the current pow-wow in Paris and Liondon over the rules for arm in-arm walking will have only an ac ademic interest on this side of the ocean. Side by side, yes. But per ish tlie thought of a strong woman clinging to anything save her own sure self confidence! Some Personal Effects. When the late J. Pierpont Morgan was in Washington as a witness dur ing the senate investigation of presi dential campaign contributions last fall lie dropped into the offices of the revenue service in the treasury de partment. and was met by a clerk. "Well, what can I do for you?" asked the clerk, who did not know the great financier from a side of sole leather. "I'm thinking about moving some of my personal effects from my London town house to New York," said Mr. Morgan, politely. "I want to find out whether or not they are dutiable." "Well." said the clerk, looking pro foundly wise, "what is the value of the#tuff?" Kight there the clerk got the shock of his life. "Oh." replied Morgan, "something, I should say, between seven and ten millions of dollars."

The ability of this firm to furniph the greatest value for the money is due largely to the fact that they make all component parts of their instruments, and are not merely assemblers of these parts in the shops of various manufacturers.
