Exceptions to the Very Large Glass who,

The following story is current among
the mOuntaineers in North Carolina:
Before the advent Of northern tour
lists into the Black mountains the few
inhabitants of that region were wretch
eddy poor. The only industry was
mica mining; and as some Of the mines
were among the inaccessible peaks, the
mica had to be carried upon mems
backs down to the hamlets. For years
these men plodded to and fro like
beasts Of burden, their miserable wages
barely sufficing to keep them alive.
Apparently no pleasure or hope came
into their lives.
One man, Peter Foy, as he trudged
along with his back bent, finding him
self unable to raise his eyes from the
ground, determined for amusement to
see what he could find worth noting
upon its surface. He began to look
for curious plants, gnarled roots,
queer bits of moss and stones He
carried such objects as he found in his
cabin, and arranged them on a shelf.
AS years past they grew in interest,
and "Foy's show" became the wonder
of all the Swannanoa region.
One day a geolOgist from New York,
turning Peters treasures, took up a
rough stone and examined it curl
ously.
What is thisP" he asked.
"Bit o quartz, recon" was the re-
ply.
win you lend it to me9 want 70
test it"
surely"
The stone was carried to a lapidary,
and proved to be genuine ruby the
price of which placed Peter Foy in
comfort in his humble way for the rest
of his life.
The anecdote suggests a story told
by Dean Stacey in his Yorkshire Par.
ishes."
One of his flock, pious old woman,
saw the fishing boat in which her only
son was trying to reach the shore 90
down in sight of land. She fell into
settled despair, declaring that God
had forgotten her, or He would not
have allowed Jamie to die. This
mania continued for years. One day
the dean, passing her hut, was greeted
by her smiling, happy face.
I've found Him. she cried, running
out. Il bethought me one dag tatre
were things beside Jamie that He lad
given me. So when / woke in the
morning I'd thank Him for the
warm bed. an the bit carpet on

Relatively speaking, small farms pay
better than large ones, acre per acre.
The agricultural prosperity of the
south will be greater when the farms
average a smaller acreage. It's an ex.
ception when we find a man that can
cultivate and manage a large farm an
well as a small one. It requires no
mean order of executive ability to cul-
tivate a thousaud-acre farm with hired
labor, and to make a good profit
on the crops after expenses are
paid, and at the same time
manage the farm so that its fertility is
maintained. OF course we can not call
anyone a good farmer who robs the
soil or It's fertuity year by year, paying
back nothing. Good farming means
raising crops that net fair profit after
expenses are paid, and at least main.
tanning the fertility OF the land.
But the best order of farming is not
only to maintain fertility, but to
increase it year by year. How
is this to be done? On small
farms where good deal
OF stock is kept, stable manure may
materially aid. But for large acres
of land, we must assuredly depend on
a wise rotation and diversity of crops,
and upon turning under green crops
for fertilizing purposes, growing the
elovers and other leguminous plants.
Very frequently it will be necessary
to supply some artificial or CONNER
cial fertilizers-those specially rich in
mineral matters, where the soil is lack
ing in this kind of fertility. Southern
