"Indiana's agricultural fair shows what the farmers are doing, how they are doing it, what

they are doing it with specimens of their grain

and vegetable crops, their live, stock, their fruit,

their, newest machinery and implements, all serving as illustrations," says the Indianapolis Star. "It is a rich and varied display, and one

who sees it and does not feel anew a wonder and admiration over the variety of the products of

the soil and the size and beauty of farm animals is of dull mind. "The farmers meet to celebrate their calling, " . a -1 i ji 1.1 :iL

'many of them? to see in greater abundance ;than each individual can show, the results of ' their toil, the real glories of the earth. No pro'ducts of art can equal these exhibitions and no one need suppose that the man who spends his time and labor in the cultivation of the soil does not rejoice over the achievent of the harvest much in the same way that the artist does who 'paints a pleasing picture. The artist, it is true, : calls his work a 'creation,' yet, after all, he is only a copyist, for he copies nature in some of its myriad forms: but the farmer, while he knows that it is not he who creates his crops, does know f that it is his labor and his intelligence that hava improved and helped to perfect them, "It is not only the commercial element that interests him when the yield of his fields is abundant ; he would not be a normal being if eyj

ana hand and an inner esthetic taste were not gratified at the sight of his corn fields, from the

time brown soil was pulverized ready 'for the seed until the ripened ears in all their perfection of form and color were taken from the husks;

if he did not delight at the shimmering of the

wheat in the fields as the wind sweeps into waves; at the richness of color, the delicacy of texture of the fruit upon the orchard trees. The farmer toils, but he has a reward greater than dollars in the character of his produce. "But if the farmer, properly enough, celebrates himself at the state fair, the people of the cities, the most of them originating on farms, celebrate him daily when they buy and consume his wares. They revel in the perfection of his cantaloupes,, which improve in flavor and sweetness with successive seasons; they admire, both in the market basket and on the table, the smooth white or pink potatoes, the sweet corn on the cob that our boys yearned for and dreamed of in France, the tomatoes, red and yellow; the eggplant, the white onions, the red and white rad

ishes, the green and yellow squashes, the host of other farm and garden riches that serve not only to make men live, but help to make life worth living for the pleasure of the palate and the joy of the eye. ; ' "Farmers and market men do not guess it, perhaps, but there are people not a few who visit the public market, sometimes with the excuse of a basket on the arm, sometimes, not being householders, merely as strollers, just for the pleasure of looking at the piled-up abundance of the goods of the earth and the merry traffic over it. They like to see it loaded into the baskets. And what

loads the people do carry, especially on Satur

days, and how joyously they carry them ! Great are the Sunday dinners that must come out of those baskets. The people who pray 'Give us

this day our daily bread' and frequent the mar

kets get much more than their literal bread.

Harvest is now at its most profuse stage and the

farmers choose well Who have their fair in Sep tember."

Good Evening By ROY K. MOULTON

At a Connecticut woman's wedding;

three former husbands were present. ; Instead of the wedding march, the or.ganist should have played: "Hail, iKall, the Gang's All Here." Wives of great men all remind us . T"e can make our wives sublime, If we teach them to obey us And re? pect our views in time. MARCELETTE.

In our street there is a little oldi

.man who Bits on a chair in the sun.) ,He is very, very old and very, very!

' feeble. His son is a tailor and the ' shop is in the basement. The old man 'is reaJly helpless and impresses you fam as though you were to let a ; canary bird out of its cage on an 'ocean liner in mid-ocean. No contributions wanted, but it reminds me of "Honor they father and mother." ' M3rcel Steinbrugge. There must be a saving in men's clothes this year. The ladies bless 'em have already gone the limit.

It has been a very interesting piece

of news to us that the tipring system:

papers tell us of hungry waiters and bartenders standing about the streets waiting for a meal. In view of this

news we took a chance the other night;

on Main street and took the missus to

-a restaurant. We were priviliged toK pay the hat girl 23 cents for depositing!

our hat. The head waiter got .-0 cents !for showing u a table. The waiter got $1, and going oat the hall boy got r,5 centri. The meal cost $2.50 and the help got $2.10. Yes, tipping is abolished, if you know where to go.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can". "Take It", "Up" A TRAFFIC OFFICER I found one of Emerson's uniques the other day. I was driving through the city'of Detroit. , At Grand Circus Park where Madison and 'Woodward Avenues come up to each other, there is a traffic officer worth going across the country to meet. As I approached his corner I drew up my car to make the turn. One g'ance. A smile, I should say, 24 karat fine! A man tall, muscular, and unafraid. And an officer the soul of courtesy and consideration. A real public servant! "All right. New York, step on "er!" I stepped. I came back to that corner again and again just to get a little more of this man's vision of life in the small spot where he performed his work from day to day. A traffic officer with a highly developed sense cf humor! Rare is it not? Contagious, too, I am sure. For never have I driven in a city where the traffic officers as a whole have been such gentlemen and so courteous as in the city of Detroit. And bear in mind that this is the hub from which stream more automobiles than any place in the world. And probably the most congested from the standpoint of number of cars used in the city. Yet the system of handling is so well regulated and the officers so efficient that there is little confusion and a minimum of irritation. At golf in the afternoon, I mentioned this particular traffic officer to my friends and I was not surprised to hear them make some complimentary remark about him. They all knew who he was, and each had his own story to tell of him. As I have thought this man over I have said to myself here is an important unit in the life of his city and a very influential citizen. How BIG a man may make his job be it ever so simple or unattractive. That traffic officer at Madison and Woodward is the WHOLE thing where he is. "May he live long and prosper", as old Rip did once say.

One reason work is so unpopular is that f o few people like.to do it. ' It is a wise movie that knows its own ;su'hor.

Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON

Who's Who in the Day's News

THE STORY TELLER James Jarvis Jinks is in his glory .when he's relating anecdotes; all : things remind him of a story, and men who listen lose their goats, for all the tales he tells are hoary, and blue .'mould on the surface floats. He surely sees when he's beginning a dreary .yam that Adam knew, that fellows Quit their cheerful grinning, and look morose, distraught and blue: he ought ;to know that he is sinning by handing out a yarn or two. This Jinks has many kinds of merit, and well might rank with honored males, had he neglected to inherit his passion for be- ' whiskered tales: that graft the people annot bear it; all story bores should be in jails. It's strange howbores will keep on boring, when they must see they make men tired; the 'orator continues roaring till through the transom .e is fired; the fernzied bard i. bent on soaring when sawing 'wood is most desired. Sometimes . when I get busy talking I mark a .hearer heave a sigh, or wipe the tears 'that come a-flock'ng around the corner of his eye; and then I know my j conduct's shocking, I'm so ashamed I fain would die. Then I reform until, forgetful, I launch upon another spiel, land seeing some poor victim fretful, ;the currents of my soul congeal; I then proceed, remorseful, sweatful, to " kick myself with my right heel.

AMERICAN CHEMISTS

DISCUSS TECHNICAL PROPERTIES OF FOOD

(By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Sept. 9. Adsuki, or Oriental beans and vitamines, as they affect calves, eggs and chickens, came in for a share of discussion yesterday

at the various sessions of the American

Chemical sdtiety at Columbia university. The Adsuki bean which is practically new in the United States, was

nursed by cowrs that were fed on food , containing a small percentage of vitamines were likely to go blind. He described experiments carried on at the agricultural college to prove Ms point and declared they showed

j that while cows that ate few vita-

mines might produce a fairly abundant supply of milk, the quality was so poor that it was not adequate food for thair young. Mr. Hughes, in . another paper, declared vitamines in hens food had a great effect upon the quality of the chickens hatched from hteir eggs. No Vitamines, No Strength. Low percentage of vitamines means

or its big brother Lima.

The subject was taken up In a paper prepared by Messrs. D. Breese Jones, A. J. Finks and C. E. J. Gersdorff of the United States department of agriculture, Washington. The paper declared that the bean lacked, however, a sufficiency of the important sulpnur bearing acid, crystine, and should be served with foods such as eggs, milk and meat. The article of food, which does not require cooking, was originally grown only in Manchuria, Japan, China and Korea. In Japan it is used for making soups, gruels, confections, cakes, as a flour for shampoos and a base for facial cream. Vitamines Are Necessity. Vitamines were discussed in two papers, one by Prof. J. S. Hughes, of the Kansas State agriclutural college, cf Manhattan, Kas., declaring that calves

Nurse

Tells Mothers How to Save Children from Skin Irritations aad Soreness West Carthage, N. Y. "I am a graduate nurse, and I feel it a duty I

owe to mothers whose little ones suffer from chafing, rashes, itching,

scaldmg,or any skm irritation or soreness, to

. tell them that in all my experience as a nurse I have never found any

thing equal to Sykes Comfort Powder to heal and soothe the skin. Habitually used after a child's bath, it heals and prevents soreness and rashes. "-Mabel E.;Miller, R. N.. W. Carthage, N. Y. The reason Sykes Comfort Powder is so successful in such cases is because it contains six healing, antiseptic ingredients not found in ordinary talcums.For twenty years it has been used and endorsed by physicians and mothers, and nurses call it " A Heal

food containing a plentiful supply of the invisible food factors, usually became the mother of husky chicks. "Don't count your chickens before they are hatched," he advised, for he said, statistics showed that about half of the 600,000,000 eggs Bet in the United States each year were actually hatched. This, he said, meant a loss of abbouU $12,000,000 and could be largely eliminated if more vitamines went into the grown hens' food.
