was served at the Work home, and
the tables with their background

their lighted candelabra, reflected
In the soft lights of blue eyes, and
gray eyes, and brown eyes, made
beautiful touches of confusing col

Larlmer sprung a huge surprise on
their many friends ON Sunday
morning by taking the after noon
train and being married by Rev.

They returned on Monday evening

Potatoes intended for seed require
different treatment from those intended
for market. 1t has been pretty well
demonstrated that the best specimens
for seed are those that are not fully
matured when dug. The second crop,
or rather the crop grown in the latter
part OF the season, makes the best
tubers for seed. Those grown late In
the season are free from the exhaustive
blight so common on potatoes ripening
In mid-season, and consequently the vi
tality of the potato is unimpaired.
The tubers when gathered should have
more or less light, and 1t is the best
plan to keep them in light room at
all times, or if this cannot be done,
keep them in the light for a time after
they are dug, to harden them before
they are stored away in the dark.

Value of Mill.

The value of milk to farmer who
is producing milk for the profit there
Is in 1t. Is measured by the difference
between its cost OF production and tho
income from its sale or use. 1t is a
fortunate thing for the ambitious
dairyman that some of the most impor-
tant conditions which influence the
cost of producing~mllk and affect its
value when disposed Of. are under his
control. The dairyman who allows as
few OF them as possible to work
against him is bound to- succeed. -

The Mercy Home.

The inquiry being frequently made as to the cost of furnishing a bed room at the new Mercy Home, the house-furnishing committee thought 1t might be well to make a statement through the papers as to the matter
 It has been estimated that room With out a closet, which would necessitate wardrobe could be furnished comfortably for about $50. This provides for an iron bedstead, springs and mattress, wash-stand, pitcher, basin, etc., two chairs small ta- ble and rug and shades at the windows. A room with a closet could be furnished for about $20.
 Through the generosity of the citizens of Birmingham, the Creche and other friends of the Home, a number of wards have been assumed.
 Those remaining to be furnished are the opening room, the old ladies' room, the hos pital and the front hall. Any assistance in furnishing these rooms will be gratifying to the committee.

the following Monday afternoon. The car- niVal dates are the Sth and 9th of May, and it is thought that the brilliant carnival features will be augmented by the floral parade occurring the afternoon of the first day of the carnival. In past seasons the afternoon has been given over exclusively to the arrival of the carnival king, but then there has never been a floral fete arranged for the coming of the king. With the pros- pect of a floral parade for the afternoon the king and his retinue it is assured, will ar range to reach the city somewhat earlier, and will review the floral parade that will pass along theavenues later in the after noon. The floral ball will be held that evening"
 The executive committee will meet to- morrow morning to discuss all details. The committee conferred yesterday with members of the carnival committee, and at the meeting tomorrow arrangements will be completed.
 Among those who will enter traps are Miss Mary Claire Miner Miss Elizabeth Shelley, Mrs. Jack W. Johnston, Mrs. Ben Jamin Dryer, Mrs. William Estes, Mrs. D. w. Barrett, Mrs. E. M.
