Sympathetic Cook.
The young wife entered the kitchen
rather nervously and, after hesitating
for a few seconds, said to the cook:
“Oh, cook, I must really speak to
you. My husband is always complain-
ing. One day it is the soup and the
next day it is the fish, and the third
day it is the roast. In fact, it’s al-
ways something.”
The cook replied with feeling:
“Well mum, I'm sorry for you. It
must be awful to live with a gentle-
man like that.”
THE AMERICAN WALNUTS.
The above title indicates the sub-
ject matter of an interesting article
by Joseph 8. Illick in a recent issue of
American Forestry.
The writer says that of the fifteen
varieties of walnut trees in the world,
four are native to the United States.
The black walnut and butternut are
found in the eastern part of the coun-
try, the California walnut in the Gold
Hunter's State, and the southwestern
walnut in Texas, New Mexico, and Ar-
izona. The black walnut is undoubt-
edly the best-known of the walnut
family. The name refers both to the
color of the wood and the bark.
The black walnut bears little re-
semblance to any other tree except the
butternut. Both varieties of trees
may be distinguished by their rough
and sculptured nuts covered with an
unsplitting husk, and by their cham-
bered or interrupted pith.
The butternut is sometimes called
the white walnut; and may be distin-
guished by its gray bark, dark-brown
pith, elongated nut, hairy husk, and
leaflets numbering eleven to seven-
teen, in comparison with the thirteen
to twenty-three of the black walnut.
The wood is lighter in color than that
of ihe other tree, but is in no way in-
ferior as an ornamental wood. The
natural finish brings out the quiet
tones and the soft luster of the grain
in a most pleasing way.
The early settlers were most ex-
travagant in their uses of the black
walnut, due partly to the fact that the
tree usually grew upon the best land
in the fertile valleys and bordering
foothills. Nor was it possible to reach
a market with the timber. Many
trees were felled and burned simply
to clear the ground. Others weve
split into fence rails and were used to
make the rough, knocked-together
furniture, or to build the cabins.
Today the wood brings a very high
price. Every small piece of the tim-
ber is made into some useful article.
It is greatly in demand for all kinds
of furniture and musical instruments.
It is said that walnut trees are not
difficult to grow. It is recommended
that the nuts be planted where the
trees are wanted, as in transplanting
the roots are easily injured. Consid-
erable work along this line has been
done in various parts of the United
States by forest organizations and by
Boy Scouts. In 1919 more than one
hundred and fifty bushels of black
nuts were planted in a single nursery
in southern Pennsylvania, and in 1920
more than two hundred bushels by the
Pennsylvania Department of Forest-
ry.—Exchange.
KEEP TO LEFT WHILE
WALKING ON ROADS.
The rule of the road is “keep to the
right,” of course, but those who take
the risk of walking along country
roads filled with flying motors are ad-
vised to reverse it and keep to the
left. This suggestion, which comes
from the American Automobile asso-
ciation, accords with common sense.
By walking on the left the pedestrian
faces the oncoming car and is in no
danger of being hit by the overtaking
car. He has an opportunity to step
aside as if he is nearer the middle of
the road than he should be, or if the
motorist selfishly takes more than his
share of it. But he cannot so easily
determine the position of a car coming
up from behind.
It is the business of those who ride
to show due regard for the safety of
those afoot. Unfortunately a large
number of persons who drive cars be-
have as if they had exclusive owner-
ship of the highway. They may not
intend to run the pedestrian down, but
they take little pains to give him a
reasonable amount of room; and when
one car passes another going in the
same direction he is lucky if he es-
capes with being crowded into the
gutter. Such recklessness has made
the pleasant and healthful practice of
taking country walks full of needless
perils, especially in the case of those
whose faculties are not all alert as
they were once.
The motorist is not always to blame
for the accidents to pedestrians. These
have their full share of recklessness.
It is pointed out that at night one on
foot on the right of the road often
cannot be seen by he driver until itis
too late. At curves in the highway
the danger is very great, day or night.
No one can tell what careless drivers
or walkers may do, to be sure; but if
the latter will remember to walk on
the left hand side of the road, when
there is no disinct path or sidewalk
for foot traffic, there would be a ma-
terial diminution in the number of
accidents.
Swine Survey Being Made.

industry in the county. The census of
1920, giving the number of hogs and
their value, does not cover the prob-
lems of feeding, management, market-
ing, and losses through disease. If is
to obtain data to these problems, that
the survey is being made. Mr. John
Beck, a Penn State graduate in ani-
mal husbandry, now farming in Welk-
er township, has been engaged by the
State Department to visit representa-
tive farms in Centre county and obtain
the desired information called for in
the questionnaire blank. The farms
that will be visited will not be singled
out for the purpose of analyzing the
business, but to compile the results of
several thousand farms and point out
definite facts relating to the State’s
swine industry. Centre county far-
mers will undoubtedly co-operate to
the fullest extent in furnishing the
necessary data, in view of the value
of such a survey. The results for the
entire State will be summarized and
probably published in bulletin form at
a later date.
“Vanity of Vanities, All is Vanity,”
So Said King Solomon.
People have been accused of wear-
ing glasses for pride. This is wrong.
We have prescribed for thousands of
patients, any of whom would have
willingly paid ten times the price of
glasses if they could have obtained
the comfort and relief otherwise.
False pride had kept some people
from wearing glasses which to their
sorrow was discovered only when an
operation was imperative.
