Prominent among the departments of the stations are employment bureaus where men and women clamor to be put to work.

Nothing can contribute more to the advancement of agriculture than the eradication of the old. stupid notion that farming is a mere physical drudgery and to be despised, and the inculcation of the truth that farming is a scientific pursuit entitled to as much respect and consideration as any other occupation when there is devoted to it the amount of scientific knowledge and intelligent judgment and discrimination to which the business is entitled. To the extent that the farmer hoy and farmer girl of Minnesota learn to look with pride upon this occupation in that degree is the business of farming benefited and success assured. MinneaDolis Journal. New down w What Lunatics Swallowed. The swallowing of a fork as a means of committing suicide is one of the strangest cases quoted in the annual report of the Stone Lunatic Asylum. Some of the articles swallowed by lunatics would certainly tax the convenient digestion of an ostrich. They included: Nails, matches, coins, spoons, pebbles, glass, cinders, beads, studs, needles, scissors, small plyers, pins, pieces of brass, earth, coal, buttons, hairpins, button spectacles, hooks and wood. In most cases a timely discovery led to proper treatment and recovery. In the stomach of a dead man ten revolver cartridges, a number of tacks, and two needles were found. London Mail.

Every conceivable conveyance, from automobiles to hand carts, was pressed into service to convey the injured and dying to improvised hospitals. Following the first shock there was another within five minutes, but not nearly so severe. Three hours latei there was another slight shock. This harrowing experience has been a testimonial to the modern steel building. A score of these structures were in course of erection, and not one oi these suffered from the earthquake The completed modern buildings were also immune from harm by earthquake. The buildings that collapsed were all flimsy wooden and brick structures. The damage by earthquake does not begin to compare with the loss by fire. I could not sleep and could hardly drag around.
