DOTH WORKSHOP aUd HOME. The bani will build the Lome" Tbl Is the reason most often given for the construction of u modern structure for the shelter of the live stock, while the farmer and tils family continue to dwell In cramped quarter. It Is true that largely through the care of live stock the farmer prospers. The barn Is his workshop, his factory. Rut too often he conTFnues to put more money Into the business, Into machinery, land, live stock, while the construction of n house la Indetinltely postponed. There Is no reason why farm life should not be so comfortable am! enjoyable as city life. Modern Improvements have seen to that. Rut In many cases It Is not. The home becomes merely a shelter, a resting place for the farmer when he Is not working. A good many forget that the home Is the workshop of the farm wife, says Kansas Industrialist. Why should It not be as modern and efficiently equipped as that of the farmer? Hut more Imiortant Uian the workshop Idea Is the fact that It Is home. And a home should be something more than n house; It should be homelike. More real farm homes will tend to agricultural stability and genuine prosperity.

HAPPINESS IN OWNING HOME

Ideal Citizen la the Man Who Live Upon and Cares for His Own Small Property.

A correspondent writes! "We need not look far back Into history to prove, nor far around us In the world to see, that the deepest contentment and the highest prosperity are ever found where there are the most proprietors of small holdings of land, each owner living upon and caring for his own property. The most stable and Ideal governments in the world are those whose citizens in the largest number own and occupy their homes. "The first step in the prevention of anarchy Is to secure a home-owning and home-loving people, and the longest step toward peace and prosperity in a nation Is the possesslon of its own

f home by each family in the statt. The

fundamental reason for this is in our nature our Intuition demands it we know, because we are created to know, that the family home Is the nearest approach to heaven that this earth affords, and is the source of the deepest contentment the human heart can attain."

.TREES GIVEN EXPERT CARE

Body of Public-Spirited Los Angeles Men Recognizes the Importance of the Work. Recognizing that the average citizen, or average laboring man, knows little or nothing about moving trees, a group of Los Angeles men have organized a company which has for its purpose the transplanting of trees, and the removal of trees und stumps about the city. The tree and stump company Is a decidedly niwblle organization. Its men travel In automobiles, carrying their tools and tree-moving machinery in trailers behind the cars. Thus equipped they are prepared to go quickly to any location about the city wherever their services are required. The mechanical appliances of tree transplanting, and tree and stump removal, are few and simple. There Is an abundance of block-and-taekle equipment for the handling of large, heavy trees, and a compact windlass of social design Is used for pulling trees out by the roots. When a tree Is merely to be removed, a stream of water played from a hose Is used to dislodge the earth from the roots. If the tree has to be moved any great distance, heavy

Railroads to Plant Trees. A tree planting campaign will bo started all along the Rock Island lines, the American Forestry association announces.
