Editor, farm house Thanks to Mr. Hodge, it may now be said that "the old order changeth, yieldinj; place to new." You may have noticed that all mys- terious women wear veils. You can't accuse the gasoline ser- vice stations of radio censorship. They advertise "Free Air." e BEAUTY CULTlhK FOK FAU.M HO.MKS At all events the Byrd expedition ought to be fairly safe from sub- marine attacks. The oft-quoted line from Thomas Hood, "I remember I remember the house where I was horn," and another by William Cowper, "Be it a weak- ness, it desei-ves some praise, we love the play-place of our early days," touch a responsive chord in the hearts of those who eherish the mem- ory of that childhood home of long ago. These lines occurred to the present writer as he listened to a remarkable address by C. H. Hodge, editor of the Farmer's Magazine, Toronto, on the occasion of a recent meeting of the Quebec Horticultural Federation in Montreal. The topic was the beauti- fication of fanii homes in Ontario, and with the aid of colored lantern slides the speaker described the trans- formation of the homes of those who entered competitions sponsored by his paper. Indeed, credit for the idea and its realization belongs to Mr. Hodge. 'As Mr. Hodge expressed ii, we owe to our children the enduring memory of an attractive home, one that in after years they can recall with pleasure and pride, and a child's most impressionable years are between 5 and 12. "With a Glance Backward," by the late, highly esteemed Dean E. A. Howes of Edmonton, records most entertainingly and picturesquely the .scenes and events of his childhood in Ontario. Mr. Hodge showed how marvellous- ly the appearance of a farm home can be improved by a little trimming and painting, by tidying up around it, giving some care to the lawn and especially by planting flowers. The other day the writer heard of a man who offered a house for sale at $.3,000 and found no bidder. He then spent $40 on a paint job and sold the house easily for $4,000. Painters of anothei- color deplore the appearance of a silo on the farm because, they say, it means no more pumpkins among the corn, and poets may rave about the tumble-down shack somewhere. Byron said of Italy, "Thy very weeds are beautiful, thy wastes more rich than other clime's fertility." But surely more beauty and charm attach to the home of peace and plenty. The Ontario Crop Improvement Association has for its slogan: "Better rural conditions through crop im- provement." It is a strange anomaly that many a farmer who takes great pleasure and pride in his thriving field crops, cultivated and fertilized with consummate care, is indifferent to the immediate surroundings of the The seed plant catalogdes are now being studied. "We make our fortunes and we call tham fate." â€" Disraeli. Just notice an add in a paper with the heading "Truth About Corns," but the way to get the truth is ask the man who wears one.
