A Few Facts that VIII BE
of Interest to ALI.
Having finished painting and
cleaning my store throughout and
having it filled with the best and
purest of groceries to be obtained in
any market, | am now ready to meet
all honorable competition, in price.
The quality of the goods will show
for themselves. Being obliged to
be away from my business the bet
ter part of this year, l have to some
extent neglected my trade, but hav-
ing made arrangements to be more
at home, | respectfully request all
my friends, new and old, to call,
where they shall have prompt atten-
ton and the ''better class OF grocer
les" at prices as "cheap as the
cheapest" My trade during the
year just coming to close has been
very satisfactory, but l want bet
ter trade for 1890, and l intend to
have it If polite, prompt attention,
with pure goods, at living prices,
can do it. With these few remarks,
| will simply say in passing that my
stock of Fancy and Imported Gro
ceries were never better than now,
and am determined to sell regard
less Of prices, and cordially invite
every one to call and see me before
buying elsewhere. Remember the
place, next door to B. r. Legg &
Bro, the big cotton buyers of Mari.

We are drifting away from that con-
tact with the soil which is one OF the
prime essentials Of manhood. Present
social conditions are source OF danger
and the sooner we reach after the condl-
tons for true success and stimulate a
deeper love for and dependence on the
farm, the sooner Will we throw up a wall
of defence against invading hosts. An.
other condition lies In better and truer
appreciation Of the duties and RESPONSE
bilties of citizenship. No class should
be so intensely political as farmers. Dif
fering as to measures, they should, in
their respective parties. work for results.
1t Is your duty and mine to arouse our
selves to action-specihc, positive action.
We are responsible for poor methods,
poor practices and poor results.
Uniting for success, seeking for practi-
cal results, laboring patiently for the bet
ter way, and clinging closely to our faith
in the New England tomorrow, we shall
ind the conditions realized aud success
secured. Only in this reaching and seek
ing and striving, only In this toiling and
lighting and growing can these conditions
be found
DR.. Twitchell's remarks were listened

on the subject. Prompt and concise re

Permanent Manners.

Very few young people realize the i'm
mense charm of gentle, courteous home
manners. II is not only that II Is RICH,
and the duty of every Christian gentle
woman and gentleman, but 1t Is Infinitely
lovely aud attractive, to see girls and
boys showing in their own homes, to
their own people and in their everyday
life, the same courtesy and the same
consideration that they exercise In soci-
ETY..
There Is a species of vulgsrity about
company manners, just as there Is in all
veneer; and there are many young peo-
Pile who consider themselves well bred,
who would scorn TO wear sham jewelry
and would think false pretense of any
kind bad form, yet who keep their gra-
cousness for the world, and spoil the
home atmosphere by their loneliness and
rudeness. Not that they mean it; they
may really love each other dearly and In
any great matter would be quick to serve
and make sacrifices, but the daily exer-
else Of self-control in little matters, the
everyday uuselhshness, she "soft an-
swer that turnoth away wrath" are not
theirs, and almost unconsciously the hab-
its of home ill-breeding are formed, and
many mother finds too late that through
her carelessness and inattention to de-
tails the mischief Is done and she cannot
remedy it.-Neu York Tribune.

ColeFy Farms

Among number of special investlga-
atoms being made in the division Of agrl-
culture Of the Census Office Is that of
"truck farming" which is distinct from
market gardening, in that the truck farmer
raises one or more special crops in large
quantities in sections where the soil and
climate are particularly favorable, and
the product is shipped to distant mark
cts; whereas the market gardener, even
though his operations are carried on up
on II large scale, produces crops for his
nearby city market. Celery is one of the
spocslities on a plumber of truck farms,
and the figures already brought out are
interesting. In the vicinity of Akron and
Canton, Ohio, over 500 acres are devoted
to celery. The Kalamazoo, Mich, celery
district comprises over 1900 acres, being
cultivated by some 800 families. The
celery farms as a rule run In size from
one fourth to ten acres each. but there is
one of sixty acres. The crop is boxed
and shipped by rail to all portions Of the
United States
