BUYING FARM SUPPLIES.

Good roads and diversified crops
are now the two most popular and
important queetions that are agita'
ting the minds of Southern farmers
The matter of good roads is almost
entirely in the hands of our states
men for solution, and is receiving
their close attention and study
The matter of crops rests aItogetn-
er upon the action of the farmers
they alone can solve the problem
The following from the Times
Democrat fully illustrates The evil:
of the one-crop policy:
"ihe West Tennessee Wing
published at jackson, the county
seat OF Madison county. has taken
the trouble to lnvestig ate the pur-
chase of Western provisions, ETC.,
in that county, and finds that a to,
tai Of 1924 9O7 was paid out for
meat, meal, hay, oats, potatoes and
other products which could have
been raised Just as we'll and as
cheaply at home as in the west,
ana il arrives at The conclusion that
if the Mad son farmers had raised
these products themselves, instead
of paying out money for them and
devoting themselves too exclusly e-
Is to cotton, they would be far bet
ter off.
"There does not, of course, seem
to be the slightest doubt OF this
fact. The papers have preached 1t
for yeaIs, aud We believe that the
farmers, with the experience OF
last season before them, fully un-
derstand the lesson now, and that
they will devote themselves TO
raising the home supplies first, with
cotton as the surplus crop. Thus
raised it is one of the most profit
able crops, representing net gain
or profit. But when the farmers OF
a single county have to pay out
half miIliuu dollars in money an
nually tor supplies, it is scarcely to
be wondered at that they complain
of times as hard"

RICH WITHOU L MONEY.

Many "a man is rich without mon
ev. thousands OF men with moth
ing in their pockets, and thousands
without even pocket, are rich
A man born with good, sound
constitution, a good stomach, a
good heart a d good limbs, "a pref
ty good head piece, is rich. Good
bones are better than G I'D, tough
muscles than silver, and nerves that
flash fire and carry energy to every
function are better than houses
and laud. 1t is better than llud-
ed estate to have the right kind Vt
father and mother. Good breeds
and bad breeds exists among men
as really as among herd. and horses.
Education may do much to check
evil tendencies or 10 develop good
ones, but il is great thing 20 in
herlt the right prop nrtion Of facul
ties to start with. The man is rich
who has good d sposltion, who is
naturally kind, patient, cheerful ,
hopeful, and who has flavor of
wit aud iun in his composition.
The hardest thing to Get on with
in this life is mans own self. A
cross, self h fellow, "a Respondent
and complaining fellow, hmid

all born deformed on the inside.
They do not limp, but their
thoughts sometimes do.-Source

PANTS.

Pants are made fur men, and not
men for pants, Women was made
for man, and not pants. When a
man pants for a woman aud wo-
men pants for man. they are pair
of pauts. SUCH pants don't last.
Pants are like molasses, they are
thinner in hos weather aud thicker
in cold. The mali in the moon
chapges his pants during an eclipse.
Don't you so to the pantry for
pants, you may oe mistaken. Men
are often miss taken in pants.
Such mistakes makes breaches OF
promise. There has been much
discussion as TO whether pants is
singular or plural. Seems to us
when men wear pants they are plu,
raj and when they don't wear any
its singular Men get on a tear in
their pants, and it IS all right; but
when the pants get on tear, it il
all wrong. lex.

TOBACCO AS ANANTISEPTIC

Il has long been a pr pular Opin
ion that tobacco is an antiseptic,
aud Pref. Tasssrini has recently
made some experiments on the sup
posed germicidal sir ues Of tobacr
co smoke, which seem 10 show that
it has n destructive action npon
tue growth of bacili, the minute
organisms which are the cause Of
so many diseases. In order to i'm
itate rs nearly as possible the pro
cesses guing on in a smoker s
mouth, the Professor passed to-
bacco fumes through horizontal
tube into receptacle kept moist
by damp cotton wool, which con
tanned a colony of bac Iii. 1t was
found that the smoke retarded the
growth of some kinds of bacilli,
and absoIutelys~Spievented l. h Q
growth III others. Among the lat:
'ier were the bacilli of cholera and
typhus. If Prof, Tasearinl's tests
are TO be relied on, it is evident that
not only is tobacco not the deadly
enemy Of man that it is sometimes
made out to be, bat that in many
Instances IL rs his great friend, hot
only 10 the way of solace, but as a
warder off aud destroyer of deadly
germs that are only biding their

The three-year- old steer sold at
public auction at the village pound
last Saturday forenoon was sup

Townsend, of Milaca, and Pound
master Randall took the trouble to
walk over to Milaca Friday after
noon to inform Mr.. Townsend
that the animal impounded and adj
vertised for sale was supposed to
belong to him and requested him
to come and get his property be-
fore the sale took place. Mr.. T.
agreed to come over early Satqr-
day morning, but up to 10 o'clock
had not put in an appearance and
the animal was sold, according to
ordinance, to the highest bidder
for cash. Now, we fail to see
where Mr.. Townsend has any kick
coming in this matter. The steer
was sold to w. E. Waldhoff, the
butcher, for 81.

discovered she had left the satchel
and telegraphed back to Depot
Agent Olson requesting him to
take and keep it until her return.
Mr.. Olson complied with the re-
quest and delivered the article to
Mrs. Mitchell on her return in the
afternoon. On examination she
found that nothing had been dis
turbed save her purse, which con
tanned but few dollars, was gone,
Some miserable sneak thief had
stolen it soon after IT had been left
on the seat. AS yet no trace has
been found and the miscreant re-
joices in the peacable possession of
his Doodle.
