dent"
Father Michael Sullivan made few

Honesty and Sincerity
Of purpose of the president in all MS
acts. The president responded. and his
remarks were frequently interrupted
by applause. He said:
Father Sullivan: I came here to say
few words myself, but nothing that
can say will in any way have the sig
nifoance that the gift from the wage
workers of Hartford has. I should, OF
course, be wholly untitled for the posi-
ton I occupy if I did not give my best
thought and best purpose to trying 10

marks, which were based on the after

Shoe by the workingmen-the president
was Interrupted by vociferous applause.
Such side remarks as the following:
II do not care how honest a man may
be, If he is timid he is no good,' evoked
loud laughter. Again, in speaking Of
the isthmian canal, he aroused mirth by
saying that one of the problems in con-
necticn with the great engineering

sand-dollar patriotic, ambitious men 10
work for a ten -thousa d-dollar fee.

PROFITABLE FARMING.

Probably the largest crop ever
made on the A. B Mobiles farm, near
McKendre church, was made last
year by Frank Gorham. On 225
acres he made 215 full bales cotton,
with abundance of corn.
He had a cropper that probably ex-
ceeded any one in the county, or
State for that matter. His name is
A. E. Edwards. Mr.. Edwards had
only one horse (mule) crop, and
here is what he harvested:
On II acres in cotton, 81 bales,
averaging about 400 pounds from s
acres in tobacco he sold $567.76; on

and three big stacks of fodder we're

is to be traced, it seems to me, to

FARM NOTES FROM WARREN.

IOrrespOndeace of The Progressive Farmer.
The new year has come with sew
eral beautiful days of sunshine The
farming people around here have
started eff, it seems, in good earnest,
determined to do their part in the
way of winning success this year.
Some have already started their
plows to running.
1t seems from the many converse
tiOns that we have with the farming
class, that an over whelmlngly large
crop of tobacco will be planted this
year.
The chair factory which has re-
Gently been started in Warren is
buying much oak and hickory tim
Der. While it may not net very
much money to the owners of the
timber, it is giving employment TO q
GLASS Of people that probably would
have suffered but for this labor.
There is another call for labor
around US, and that is for hands to
get cord wood. With both of these
and saw mills, our people will tide
over until farm work opens up more
plentifully. RURALIsT.

prove; farming would become OK.
oeedingly profitable the boys would
remain on the farms the farm homes
would once again take on the culture.
the splendor and regal aspect that
was theirs not long since.
HERE MONEY IS To BE MADE.
1t follows then that the building
OF d nero OF dairy stock 1s the use Of
a good sire with milk inheritance in
his blood and then the selection of
offspring from the most profitable
COWS. This practice is easy and
simple. It is not the result of much
expenditure of money. 1 know OF
no field of activity that offer greater
opportunities for young men than
this. You can start on little capital:
few acres of land, few COWS and
a good bull Your herd doubles
each year and becomes more valuable.
Weed out the light mixers and poor
butter-producers and keep the best
stock. Not many words are needed
to show the force and the truth OF
the plan and the suggestions.
We need 10, 900 dairy herds in this
State, so do not fear that there will
be no room for you.
