Southwest Vernon Farmers Club
held its October meeting on the I'd
inst, with Mr.. and Mrs VIM. Norton.
AS cutting corn and digging potatoes
were In order for farm work, the male
contingent of the club was not in evil
dence2in as large Plumbers as usual.
More than half OF the club families
were represented, however.
The meeting began In the usual
way: Singing by the club; devotional
exercises by Chaplain Mrs. M. West.
After some discussion In regard TO
accepting as members those who we're
not directly interested In agricultural
pursuits, the names OF Attorney S. b
Terry and wife were placed on file to
be voted upon at the next meeting.
The business being concluded, Mrs.
Fred West read a humorous selection:
shopping for his wife"
In the absence of M. Harrington the
question "What benefit would farmers
obtain by organization, twas answered
by f. B. Clark. He claimed benefit in
various ways, chiefly, favorable legis-
lation, as showing what organized
forces could accomplish.
Mrs. Alchin read good article
"Man's responsibility in happy home
making"
The association question "Does the
future welfare Of the farmers clubs
demand larger financial resources for
the state association" was assigned
to Mr.. Smedley. He thought larger
dues from clubs would not materially
alter existing conditions. Some
thought more clubs could be organized
II an organizer was paid enough to
make it an object for him to give his
time to 1t. But upon the whole II
was decided that the raising Of more
money was not necessary at present.
Mrs. Norton sang negro ballad
Returned; or empty Is the abip. ,
This closed the program.
The question box was in charge OF
A. Bruno, but everybody appeared tC
know all they wished TO, and only two
questions, and those not important
were submitted to the box.
Mr.. NortOn'S farm was named "Ha
zelwood,' and the club adjourned fol
supper. AS an omission was made In
regard to naming Mr.. Wrights farm
last month, 1t was named maple
Ridge at this meeting. We separated
to meet with Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Eas

lreland's Population Decreasing.

The recent census of Ireland shows a
marked decrease in its population, which
has been largely attributed to the fam
inc throughout the island, causing the
death of thousands of people, and fore
ing many others to emigrate. This
brings to mind quite forcibly the abso-
lutte necessity of having plenty of good
food if we would prolong life, but after
all it is not question of the amount
eaten that makes the people strong and
healthy, but the way it is digested.
Dyspeptic people cannot enjoy their
meals, and consequently always feel de-
pressed, irritable and nervous. They
should try Hostetters Stomach Bitters
at once. 1t is a specific remedy for
fiatulency, belching, indigestion, dys-
pepsia and nervousness. and is backed 10y
q record of fifty years of cures.

The Eaby's Walk.

My papa took me out ID walk,
thought it would be sport;
But papa's legs are very long,
And mine are very short.
And my papa began to talk,
And my papa forgot
He had baby out TO walk
0, how had to trot
My papa went on fast and fast,
He dragged me like CART
l ran so that my little bones
Felt coming all apart.
My papa like giant walked,
He walked with great long stride
l didn't just know how to fly,
And / fell down and cried!
My papa thinks it's strange I'm tired
With such little walk
I'd like to tell my dear papa
If knew how to talk
I'd like to tell him, when he says,
Its strange how tired you are!'
1 coed ten times as much as he
In going just as far!

Agricultural Products of Michigan"

gan was a leader in agriculture, and
possessed commercial advantages un-
surpassed, all things considered, by
any other state. He pointed out that
this state produced more than half of
the beans raised In this country, and
that the state is peculiarly adapted to
he raising of the sugar beet. The
aggregate amount of money paid for
beets last year was 81, 702, s76, 740 which
he thought was great benefit to the
farmers Of this state.
Mr.. circuit said that chicory was
grown to some extent also and brought
in to those that grow the root the neat
sum of 1920, 500. In 1898 there was

Remember Boys Make Men.

When you see ragged urchin
Standing wistful in the street,
With torn hat and kneeless trousers,
Dirty face and bare, red feet,
Pass not by the child unheeding;
Smile upon him. Mark me, when
He's grown he'll not forget it,;
For remember, boys make men.
When the buoyant, youthful spirits
Overflow in boyish freak,
Glide your child in gentle accents;
Do not in your anger speak.
You must SOW in youthful blossoms
Seeds of tender mercy; then
Plants will grow and bear good fruitage
When the erring boys are men.
Have you never seen grandsire,
With his eyes aglow with JOY
Bring to mind some act of kindness
Something said to him boyg
Or relate some slight OF GOODNESS,
With brow all clouded, when
He said they were too thoughtless
To remember boys make men.
Let us try to add some pleasure
To the life of every boy;
For each child needs tender int'rest
In its sorrow and its JOY.
Call your boys home by its brightness;
They avoid a gloomy den,
And seek for comfort elsewhere;
And remember, boys make men.
Mary E. Tucker.

Hol for the bending sheaves,
Ho for the crimson leaves,
Flaming in splendor
Season of ripened gold,
Plenty in crib and fold,
Skies with depth untold,
Liquid and tender.
Far, like the smile of God.
See how the goldenrod
Ripples and tossesl
Yonder, a crimson vine
Trails from bearded pine,
Thin as a thread of wine
Staining the MOSES.
Bright meath the morning blue
Sparkles the frosty dew,
Gem-like and starry.
Hank, how the partridge cock
Pipes to his scattered flock,
Mindful how swift the hawk
Darts on his quarry!
Autumn is here again,
Banners on hill and plain
Blazing and flying.
Hail to the amber morn,
Hail to the heaped-up corn,
Hail to the hunters horn,
Swelling and dyingl
