such cases. When the food is not
fully masticated it is held back in the
small intestine as well as in the stom
ach, and this also has a tendency to
establish a sluggish action, which
contributes to the condition favorable
to constipation. While thorough
mastication will not cure those cases
which may be largely due to bad
mental condition, excessive mixing
of food, lack of exercise, overwork,
too concentrated food, or some phy
sical defect of the intestine, it is an
important factor, and more careful
mastication will contribute to im
provement in all cases.

We, the practical farmers, by close
economy, can do better for our roads
than any sort of instruction can sug
gest. There is considerable economy
about roads—good roads—such as
are carefully managed. In the rough,
hilly countries we must think more
of the economical than we do of the
fashionable road-building. While we
should build up our roads and im
prove them, we have need to beware
of popular bonds and build mainly by
direct work and pay our way as we
go.
Since free speech is claimed for a
“free people,” let us write, speak,
consult and deliberate about the
great affairs of life. The generous
side of life is the bright and safe
side, and the generous people are
willing to equally share the social
burdens of life. We can’t please our
selves in every case, can’t have all
our own way, but we can be gener
ous in a way that will win the re
spect of all.

Hurried eating is a common con
tributing cause of constipation as
well as other ills. When the food is
not properly masticated more energy
is required in the upper part of the
alimentary canal to reduce it to the
condition necessary for complete di
gestion, and in cases in which the vi
tality is depleted this may so seri
ously cripple the activity of the low
er part of the alimentary canal as to
contribute largely to the atonic con
