THE FARMERS SONG.

rm Of the band that till the land,
And draw from earth her store;
Right happy indeed's the life we lead
While our days are passing DER;
Many they are, in riches far
Surprising the farmers purse,
While other pursuits may yield NOR,
fruit
Yet often bring forth much worse.
We envy not the statesman's lot,
Still clunoring for his class;
Nor his that fights for glory's rights,
At some rebonnded pass.
No risk have we on boisterous sea
Nor fears lest tempest whelm
All we possess, without redress,
While laboring ut the helm
The fruitful field in bounties Yields
a rich reward for toll,
BE ours the trade to ply the spade,
Aud deeply pillow the soil,
We walk abroad DER carpet sod,
And iiow'rets kiss our feet
Whose ordors rise to catch the skies
A tribute pure and meet.
Toall we give the means to live.
AS brother shares with brother;
And thus fulfill the holly will
That bids us ''loye each other
Oh! Life secure from guile, and pure
To thee my soul clings ever
With all its might, in fond delight,
To change from thee no never.

On July %, 1864, the armies OF
Generals Sherman and Johnston
were confronting each other at At

musketry and cannon.
AT ten o'clock, General Hardee, q

mounted escort, was on an eleva-
ton, observing the position Of the
enemy. One of tho escort was a
youth OF sixteen, a courier
While the General was noting the

TWILIGHT.

Slowly, slowly falls nights curtain
over all the widespred land;
And the angels Of the twilight
At the gates Of heaven stand.
q. they come band OF angels,
Clad in robes of tender gray;
And before their gracious presence
shades the suns last lingering ray.
In the west, blaze Of glory
Turns the sky TO molten gold;
In the east, the faint gray shadows
Of the coming night unfold.
T.illght brings us loving, tender
Thoughts Of dear ones rassed away,
Who have gone from out earth's twi
light
Into everlasting day.
Twilight memories are sadd"st,
Twill. ht hopes are grand and strong,
And the ships wa long have waited
Come to shore at even song
In the quiet hush Of twilight
We may rest both heart ami hand;
We may dream of gorgeous castles.
Raised in Spain's far distant land.
Life has much Of sunlight glory,
DAYS whose spleador blinds our
sight,
Ii has much OF sorrows darkness,
When all seems the blackest night
So, with loving hearts and trusting,
Should we price the twilight time,
When the stars in silvery beauty
Up tho heights OF heaven climb.

Digging Diamon ds.
Ruston Caligraph

Col. T. Sambola Jones, associate ed
itor of the Capitolian Advocate, has
struck it rich, and did it by honest
toll From the New Orleans City Item
we learn that while digging in his gar
den in the city of Baton Rouge several
days ago, Col. Jones dug up an old
fashioned brooch containing eighteen
diamonds. Oh, how that editors heart
must have palpitated with joy when
his eyes fell upon the glittering dia
monds? We imagine we can see him
heeling it to the house to show his val
liable find to his wife. This shows
what rewards are in store for indus
trious editors who work their gardens
and do other jobs about home. The
chronicling of the fact viii no doubt
produce the heaviest crop of garden
working editors this spring ever before
witnessed in Louisiana, and the readers
of country papers will not be bored
with editorial hints to subscribers to
bring the editor in some vegetables,
because every editor will have gar
den, and a good one, unless he digs all
his vegetables up hunting for diamond
brooches. But before we bestow any
more praise upon brother Jones for
habits of industry or give him credit
for being his own gardener, we would
like to know for certainty whether he
was really working his garden or dig
ging fish bait when he found that
brooch,

June Roses.

Rich, blooming and variegated as the
roses of June, comes the American
Agl iculturist for this month, with its
one hundred original illustrations and
original articles, by forty four we'll
known writers in various parts of the
Union, from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Every number now of this periodical is
better than its predecessor, and the
Publishers announce that they are pro-
vlding for still new features and illus
trations. The second paper, in the
series of the Homes of our Farmer
Presidents, will be written bJ Donald
G.. Mitchell (Ik MarveD; subject,
George Washington. The accompany
ing engraving will probably be as large
as that Of Jefferson's Home, which was
the first of the series, to.wit: 81 inches
long and II inches wide. These en-
cravings of Our Farmer Presidents are
to be presented to all subscribers of the
American Agriculturist as they appear.
Price of the American Agricultnrist,
English or German, $3.50 per year.
We willclub it with the COURIER for
1915 year, each subscriber to receive
both papers and the Special Engrav-
ings and Descriptions by American
authors as they appear.

Village Improvement Societies.

! In New England village improve
ment societies have done a great deal
to make villages more beautiful and
they are more needed in Southern than
in Northern villages. These societies
may be organized anywhere by sensi-
BILE business men, without any special
form of constitution and bylaws.
Still, it would be better to have some
guide such as the latest rules of these
societies may furnish.
The object of these societies is to i'm
prove the streets, sidewalks, bitches,
bridges, etc., removing all that is un-
slightly. Dilapidated fences, defective
gates, hideous old buildings, nuisances
of all kinds are discussed, and meas
ures taken to destroy, improve, or in
some way regulate them. The owners
of these fences and buildings should all
belong to the V. |. Society, and consult
with the members about what should
be done and the best way to do it.
Shade trees should be planted ON all
of the streets, and protected so that
cattle cannot harm them. Flower gar
dens, vines, arbors, ETC., should be dis
cussed, and where they are defective
the society should endeavor to have
them improved. The members of the
society will soon see what should be
done, and how to do 1t. Each one
should improve in front of his own
house, but some improvement must be
done at the expense of the society.
The treasury must be supplied by con-
tributions, concerts and other means.
The lady memb bers are usually success
ful in raising funds in this manner, and
are the most suggestive, public spirited
and useful members.
If such improvements were to COM
mence in the railroad villages, there is
no doubt about the improvement spirit
extending into the country, and rural
architecture would be improved, and
farms and farmers houses would be
made more beautiful. 1t ought to
spread all over the South in all the
rural districts, as we'll as the villages,
