these times of scarcity of fertilizing materials more attention than ever
should be paid to the conserving vi
plant food from this source.
Animal Diseases ana rarasnw. t hnn hn estimated that diseases
of animals, such as hog cholera, tuberculosis, contagious abortion, dourine,
Texas or tick fever, ana otners, cause annual losses aggregating many raillions. Many of these diseases, to a still greater extent, can be prevented or their ravages reduced considerably. The department has greatly extended
its facilities for dealing wun mese matters and will assist, farmers in every feasible way. Insects and Plant Diseases. The annual losses from insects and plant diseases are enormous. It has been conservatively estimated that smuts of wheat alone cause losses aggregating 60 million dollars annually. The staff of specialists in the Department of Agriculture, as well as the charts in the State Institutions, has
been increaed, and, in cooperation
with the forces in the various states, they will be able to render more effective assistance to farmers during the coming season than ever before.
Predatory Animals ana Koaerus. The losses from animals injurious to agriculture and to animal husbandry are enormous. Native rodents cause losses of grain, forage and other agricultural products estimated at more than $150,000,000. House rats and Tr.if. lew a toll of $20fl.000,000 upon
the Nation's food supply. On the western cattle ranges predatory animals alone cause losses of live stock amounting to $20,000,000 to $30,000,000 anually. Method of eradication have been developed, especially in the case of rodents, which will make it possible to reduce the losses at a relatively small expense. The department will vigorously prosecute its activities in this field and will assist farmers in every feasible way. in cooperation with
As important features of its supplementary program for feeding the nation, its armies, and the allies, the United States Department of Agriculture rpr.ommends that great attention
be paid to the production of beans, nean. and peanuts. On these subjects
thA nroeram states:
"The production of beans and peas eimiiiri he increased In regions to
which they are adapted, because of their high food value, keeping qualiami nvaiiahilitv for domestic or

"Soy beans and peanuts should be increased in order to supplement beans and peas as human food, as a source of much-needed oil. and as animal

It contains four national and five
municipal museums the Blbllotheque Nationale, the world's largest library,
with more than 6,000,000 volumes on
its shelves; besides eighty-two municipal libraries, numerous museums, rich in historic treasure.
Around the Grandes boulevards, the
main arteries of the city, are grouped many of the capital's largest and most
valuable structures. Tne catnearai oi Notre Dame, a famous thirteenth cen
tury edifice, with its towers reaching
225 feet In the air; the Palais Royale, erected by Richelieu la 1634, and scores of famous old structures are grouped there. The promenades and open squares of Paris take up more than a million square meters of space, exclusive of the famous Tuillerles. the Luxembourg, the Louvre, the Pardln des Plantes and other gardens, celebrated by tourists. The suburbs of Paris are as famous as the city itself and are surrounded by a second line of boulevards. At Bercy there are famous wine and spirit warehouses. Charrone, Menilmontant, Belleville. Buttes, Chaumount are all
suburbs of Importance.

A few years ago unsightly fort-1 ifications. shanties and old structures were destroyed and model houses and parks were erected in their place at a
cost of $40,uou,uuu.
The production of beans last year
In the 6ix leading States increased from 10,715,000 bushels to 15,701,000 bushels, and peanuts from 35,324,500
bushels to 60,222,000 bushels, jjui these increases proved to be greatly needed, and there is every Indication that large increases will be readily absorbed In 1918. HOW INDIANA RESPONDED As a result of the campaign for in
creased food production, one Indiana
town of less than 5,000 people naa 1,384 gardens last season. In eight towns of another Indiana county 9S per cent of all vacant lyots were under cultivation. In three townships in
still another county, where special effort was made to Increase food production, it was estimated that ten times the average amount of garden crops was produced. Canners for canning fruits and vegetables were placed in each consolidated school in one county, and were loaned to communities which desired to use them.

In 1814 was occupied by the allies and again by them in 1815. In the
revolution of 1848 the Palais Royale
and other splendid structures were de
stroyed.
On September 19, 1870, Paris was
surrounded by the Germans and was bombarded by them from January 5 to
January 28, of the following year.
After four months of siege an armistice was entered Into and from
March 1 to March 3, 20,000 German troops occupied the Champs Elyses and the Louvre. More dreadful than the war was the Commune, March 18 to May 29, 1871. During the strife the Tuilieries, the Hotel de Ville and many other structures were demolished. Several peace treaties have been signed in Paris, that of 1763, which markeJ the end of the Seven Years'
war, being perhaps the most important. In 1783 there was signed the definite treatey between Great Britain and the United States which terminated the War of Independence. Another treaty of Importance to this country was that which was signed in Paris in 1898 and which marked the end of the Spanish-American war. Paris has been described as the wonder city of the world. Statistics
for 191 1 give it a population of 2.888.14S, and It has been estimated that the city's normal population at

The natural condition of a child Is to be happy and carefree. When the girl mopes and i9 indifferent to school and study; or the. boy is sullen and refuses to go out and playi the child needs a laxative to empty the bowels and stir up the liver.
