THE BTRACTBE JOURXAL

DIVORCES INCREASE i Is marriage in ArArica threatjened with becoming a transient ' institution ? Latest census statistics on divorce, in the opinion of the University of California, warrant the putting of such a question, and the light of scientific scrutiny has just been turned on the American family at that institution. There was, according to the census of 1922, one divorce to every twelve marriages in the United States ten years ago. It is one divorce to every seven marriages today. The galloping divorce ratio, moreover is steadily pressing westward and is finding its culmination in the states bordering on the Pacific Ocean. Among American cities having the largest divorce ratio San Francisco probably holds the record. For the year ended June 30, 1923, one in every two marriages in the city of the Golden Gate ended in divorce. The divorce ratio for New York State is one divorce for every 22.6 Carriages. One has to go as far south as .Georgia to find the next best record—one divorce for every 19.4 marriages. On the other hand New York’s next-door neighbor, Pennsylvania, shows a divorce ratio more than twice as large as that of New York. One of every 5.2 marriages in the State of Ohio ends in dissolution, and this divorce ratio, with triflingavariations, stretches acrossJtne continent to the slopes of the Pacific Coast. The highest divorce ratio is reached by the state of Montana, with one divorce to every 4.3 marriages; Wyoming with one divorce to every 3.9 marriages, and Oregon,* with one divorce to every 2.6 marriages. Nevada, being the nation’s divorce mecca, is ’ r £ clas ? by itself - In th £ State of Nevada the number of divorces for the year 1922 exceeded the number of marriages. . The problem of divorce has, since the war in particular, attained such sinister dimensions in the United States that it can no longer safely be left to the I domain of theology or of the mor- | alist to deal with exclusviely. 1 Science and sociology must come | to the aid of the foundering American family. —o — Glycerine Mixture for Gas on Stomach Simple glycerine, buckthorn bark, etc., as mixed in Adlerika. helps any ease ga» cm the stomach in TEN minutes.

GARDENERS FOREWARNED OF DISEASE CONTROL The 20th century gardener c finds it more difficult each year r to grow a garden crop successful- c ly and it is no small task to fight j the blights, insects and whatnots j that attack the cabbage, toma- < toes, and other vegetables. Some j of the common diseases and how to eliminate them were discussed ; briefly recently by Dr. C. T. Gre- < r mry of the botany extension , itaff of Purdue University. He - cave remedies for such common i things as cabbage yellows, tomato wilt, bean blight, sweet corn i wilt and ethers and they are I given briefly. First, if the soil is infested i with either the cabbage yellows 1 or tomato wilt bacteria, do not attempt to grow anything- but I varieties that are resistant to 1 these troubles. See your county i agent or write to Purdue to find i sources of resistant seed. Seed Treatments i Cabbage Seed—Use corrosive sublimate tablets that can be I purchased at any drug store. Follow directions on the bottle. i Usually one tablet in a pint of water gives the correct dilution. Soak the seed in this solution 30 minutes then wash in clear water and dry thoroughly. If possible, raise the plants in new soil and don’t plant in the same place where cabbage was raised last year. Cucumber, watermelon and muskmelon seed—Use the same solution soaking the seed for five minutes and then wash for 15 minutes and dry. Sweetcorn seed—Treat for 20 minutes, wash and dry. Tomato seed will not stand as much as other seed. Soak for five minutes in a corrosive sublimate solution made of one tablet in three pints of water. Wash thoroughly and then dry. It is also well to spray the young plants thoroughly with Bordeaux mixture to keep away blight. Corrosive sublimate is a deadly poison and shodld be handled carefully. It should never be used in a metal container as it will destroy the metal. Bean seed—Get two year old seed if possible since the blight germsi will have largely died out during this time and seed likely will not be affected. However, germination wifi be lower and more beans should be planted. Tomato wilt—This disease may be in the hotbed or garden soil. One way to avoid it is to plant the tomatoes where they have not been grown for seven years. If this is not possible, then use the resistant varieties such as Marvel, Norduke, Norton or Columbia. None is early but they w’ill produce a crop where others fail. The extension department of Purdue will give information concerning the sources of -isease resistant seed. o A SPRING TONIC Take two ounces of plain, oldfashioned work. Add one ounce of confidence. Flavor well all through with common sense. Color with a tincture of dreams of greater and better things. Eliminate all waste and worry. Speak according to knowledge, act according to conscience. Mix well and take morning, noon and night regularly. Sipped from Uie silver-lined spoon of optimism held firmly in the hand, this concoction is guaranteed to Have you a bottle of it on your shelf?

After the millionaire capitalist had condemned them as losing their color on being washed, and after Peck & Peck’s hosiery experts said they were “cheap at the > price,” Judge Edgar A. Jonas in < Municipal court decided the price was right and ordered Leit- < er to pay $1,332 for them. j GEO. L.

A HEAVY BLOW It costs seven million dollars a year to blow the whistles of locomotives on American railroads, according to figures arrived at by Dr. Arthur L. Foley, head of the department of physcs of Indiana University. He •.imply measured the power used tnd computed the cost of coal at a nominal figure of three dollars a ton. o CHOSE PIGPEN On being offered her choice of an improved portable pigpen or a free trip to the live stock show in Chicago as a reward for having raised the finest hogs tended during the year by any high school girl in her county, Miss Opal Bilby of Constantine Mich., unhesitatingly decided to accept the pigpen. o !>W% HAD BEEN LIVING HIGH Seven quail, a full grown rabbit and a rat constituted the appeti zi n g assortment of food found in the nest of a hoot owl in An old tree situated in the woods near Columbia City.
