From a Maryland Reader.
Wayne Co., n. c.

Dear Aunt Jennie:-I have been
a reader of the Social Chat for some
time, but fear of the waste basket
has kept me silent. / was born and
raised in Raleigh, but for several
years have made Baltimore my home,
and every week The Progressive
Farmer is a welcome visitor. I al
ways look first for the Social Chat
and feel disappointed when I find no
letters. Baltimore is a grand city
for one who loves pleasure and ex-
element, but give me my dear old
home for true friendship and happi-
ness. Our city has lovely summer
resorts, theatres and all kind of
amusement for those who enjoy them
and I feel sure the cousins, who have
never done so, would enjoy a visit to
our city. The letters this week are
very good, and I hope the Chatterers
will write often. If this escapes the
waste basket, will write again. Best
wishes for Aunt Jennie and the
cousins. ELIZABETH,
Baltimore, Nd.

this subject for this time, and I
must tell you that a letter from a
friend in Baltimore and whom I have
not seen since she was a wee bit of
a girl, has cheered me wonderfully
this week. I hope that she will write
again Dol and a longer letter. Ask
Papa to tell the Circle some of his
experiences, too.
Mrs. Ransier's letter tells us of a
society that all of us can join and be
of mutual benefit to each other. It
is indeed an act of charity to tell of
good deeds others have done, and
thus let the sunshine in. The world
is full of sunshine and if we will
brush the cobwebs from u mental
sky, we will live every day in it's gold
en- rays. Alas, how many people
would fain be spiders and help to
weave those dusty webs that obscure
the sun-and oh, the pity of it. I'VE
appreciate Mrs. Ransier's letter very
much, but the paper she so kindly
sent we failed to receive.
The letter from A Reader is very
thoughtful and suggestive, and I
hope she will write oftener hereafter.
AUNT JENNIE.

get sunshine for herself through the
interchange of kindly greeting by
letter, magazine, or deed. In the
Sunshine Bulletin" of August,
printed at SO Fifth Avenue, New
York, the official organ for the So
ciety; as also is. E|The Ladies Home
Journal,"-in this August number,
[ say, is the following:
"a widow, whose husband was
killed by the Navajo Indians, fifteen
years ago, lives a lonely life and
would appreciate cheerful letters
about life in other sections of the
country. She would prove an inter
esting correspondent, as she knows a
great deal about the clif-dweIlers, the
great Mancos Canon and the snow
capped mountains of Colorado. AID
dress Mrs. M. A. Hamilton, Mancos,
Col"
How lovely it would be if some of
our North Carolina farmers wives
would write Mrs. Hamilton a CHEEKY,
sisterly letter-nice for both.
There r just as many kindly
deeds done in North Carolina as in
any other State, but there has been
no report or c~onserted action for
lack of organization. And this we
are doing as rapidly as we car, for
we want every farmers wife and
every isolated one, or "shut in" from
any cause, to have the pleasure as
we'll as benefit of being a member in
the international Sunshine Society.
Have a little neighborhood circle, or
if that is not available, be a member
in the State Division just themselves.
All they have to do is to send their
name and address without money
and without price" to

Strange Habits of the Cow Bird.

The cowbird is black and a little
smaller than the red-winged black
bird. There are three species, two
of which-the common and red-eyed
migrate to our northern States
and are found associated together.
The male of the common cowbird
has a head and neck of deep wood
brown, while the red-eyed is wholly
black and very hstrous. The females
are smaller than the males and dull
Ter in color, although the red-eyed
female is quite black.
The bird receives its name from
it's association with COWS, besides
which it feeds, s~natching up the in
sects that are disturbed by the heavy
tread. About half a dozen usually
attend a single animal or a bunch
of cattle, part of which may be of
one species and part of the other.
Indeed, the two associate together as
peacefully as though they we're of
the same species.
The most serious Indictment
against the cowbird is that it builds
no nests and does not real it's W
family. Its eggs are laid in the nests
of greenlets, warblers, finishes and
other blackbirds, most of which are
smaller than itself. Of the first five
re~d-wings' nests examined in 1902,
four contained the eggs of the cow
bird. The summer warbler was one
day found burying the detestable
egg in the bottom of her nest, to-
gether with n of her own. Two
orchard orioles nests, not fifty feet
apart, each contained the egg of the
parasite, probably of the same breed.

The Tobacco Habit.

Dear Aunt Jennie:-As I read the
article in The Progressive Farmer
of August 25th, entitled "The Ciga-
rette VIII Have To Co." I thought
what a wonderful change might be
wrought in the coming generation,
physically, mentally and morally, if
our farmers would plant and raise
something that would be beneficial to
mankind instead of cu~ltivating a
poisonous weed, which they know in
time to come will fill our country
with men and women incapable of
filing the important Offices which
must be filled. For if it is raised,
somebody's boys" will certainly use
it. In very few cases is tobacco ben
efcial, while in many thousands of
cases it destroys the mental faculties
and degrades what would have been
the leaders in raising humanity. Do
not physicians and psychologists tell
us that the use of tobacco is detrl-
mental to all parts which go to make
man? Then why continue cultiva-
ting and using it?
While our farmers are meeting and
resolving to abandon the American
Tobacco Company, why not resolve
to stop the cultivation of the weed at
once, before the rising generation
has formed a useless habit which will
REQUIRE more will and determination,
than many are willing to put into
exercise, to break2 Boys and men to
be strictly reliable business men must
not indulge in the use of tobacco.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-09-15

Then why not stop It's cultivation be-
fore it is too late and numbers that
might have been helpful in conduct
ing public affairs, become slaves to
such a habit and thus rendered unfit
to fill the mission for which their ex-
istence was given2
I fully endorse Mrs. S. E. Ms idea
on the mad dog question.
Best wishes to Aunt Jennie and
the Chatterers.

The Sunshine Society.

Dear Aunt Jennie:-We have
noted with very great interest and
appreciation the columns in The Pro-
gressiye Farmer entitled "Our Social
Chat" under your evidently able
management. The article on North
Carolina is Backward for Lack of
Good Cooks" in the issue of August
18th, by Miss Stockard, shows a
broadly intellectual as well as prac-
teal outlook, and touches the heart
of things in a masterful way. There
+ so many fine suggestions in your
editorial in the same issue. The out
ing or vacation for the farmers wife,
the longing for new scenes and new
faces, long for glimpses of life as
others live it; long for human COM
partnership outside the home circle,
and appreciate an exchange of ideas
with other women"-as you have so
tersely expressed it. When I read
this, I Immediately exclaimed, "Why,
bless you, Aunt Jennie, you're a Sun
sinner; I wonder if you know it"
In this very sympathy expressed, you
have done the one kind deed that is
alone the initiation fee to the So
ciety.
The Society was started among
some warm-hearted, sympathetic
newspaper people, and the last three
years has seen it's membership in
creased to over one hundred thou
sand. You see, all there is to it to
believe is, that it is good, eff you
have a kindness shown to pass it on"
And when you give your name as a
member of the Society you promise

that will bring Sunshine" to some
one, and your yearly fee is the same.
This act you report to your Branch
or State President, that the circum-
stance of its doing may Gas Paul
says in Hebrews 1929, consider

society; it is not a charity. It is
philanthropic in its scope, and it is
a society that the isolated farmers
wife can become a member of and

Aunt Jennie's Letter.

Dear Annie:-I have just received
.bo missive that bears the news of
-orr intended departure from single
5~1ossedness to the land of supposed
hiss. May it be so with you. I adj
mire the many good and noble char
octeristics of the companion you
have chosen to accompany you on
Tfe's Journey. You will find that his
strong hand will aid you much in
varding off and lessening life's woes.
A man can accomplish so much in
life and a woman so little, but she
can he sincere, truthful, helpful, and
thrifty. These things a man expects
and he has a right to, for no man
wants a doll for a wife. Some have
been so unfortunate as to marry such,
Int they we're "fooled"-that is the
Main English of it. [ care not how
wealthy a nan may be, he never needs
help simply to spend his fortune,
but Graves comradeship to facilitate
the enjoyment of that wealth. Girls
are so apt to forget, or never to real
lie, that life's pleasures, both casual
and lasting, are the outgrowth of
cOmpanionship. Like tastes and dis
positions are so essential. A man who
is anxious or ambitious of attaining
success in a swimming match never
ties a weight to his neck, and like
wise n who cares for success in
life's undertakings would not dare
marry a woman who lives perpetually
IN the shade, but one whose nature is
so sunny that its brightness is in
spring to his every effort to combat
life's woes is what he wishes.
Now l must tell you, my dear girl,
that the best and most helpful cap
ltaI you can invest in this new enter
prise IS a cheerful disposition, a will
hngness to bear life's burdens brave

The Earliest Surgeons.

Surgery is said to be older than
medicine, and probably. in its simplest
Offices, it is as old as human need for
it. Skulls of the neolithic period give
evidence that the operation Of trepan-
ming was then practiced.
The HindOO surgeon Susruta, who
lived several centuries before Christ.
had more than hundred different
sorts of surgical instruments. and there
is abundant proof that his countrymen
were skilled in amputation. lithotomy
and operations for hernia. fistula and
even for restoring lost ears and noses.
Hippocrates. who lived 400 B. c., was
a skillful surgeon. and discoveries by
Ebers and others in Egypt prove that
the ancient Egyptians practiced sur
gerry, with suitable instruments. nearly
5000 years ago.
Among the six hermetic books OF
medicine mentioned by Clement OF
Alexandria was one devoted to sur
gical instruments. The Greeks are
thought to have learned the Hindoc
methods. and the Romans were skilled
In surgery.

ORIENT TAKING MORE BREAD
S1UEES.

The Seattle Post st-Intelligencer calls
vttentior to the increasing exports Of
breadstuffs to the Orient During the
eight months ending with August of
1902 our entire exports of breadstuffs
to the foreign countries bordering on
the Pacific aggregated but 1885,, ,7O3
in value, of which all but $22,S56 was
flour. The countries which took this
amount of breadstuffs were Hongkong
China, Japan, Australia and the small
er countries classed in the tables as
other Asia and Oceanica.
During the eight months ending
with August of the current year our
exports of breadstuffs to these coun-
tries of Asia and Oceanica aggregated
in value $11,125S6S. of which amount
$7,757,756 went in the form of flour
The total flour exports from the whole
country for the eight months of the
current year were valued at s44.ss9.-
S33, so it appears that Asia and Ocean
lea, supplied from the Pacific states of
the Union, during the eight months
consumed more than sixth of the
entire flour exports of the country.
During the corresponding eight
months of 1901 the total exports of
wheat -four from the country were
valued at SAT ,474579, of which amount
but 81 2,509.742 went to Asia and Ocean
lea. Our -four exports TO countries
bordering on the Pacific have there
fore gained upwards of s. 900 .0eO for a
period of eight months, in the short
space of two years. They are rather
more than three times as great as they
were two years ago.
The significance of these facts. as
affecting the entire wheat growing in
dustry of the United States. should not
be overlooked. Contrary to the pre-
dictions of many. the market for Amer
lean breadstuffs is expanding enor-
mously in Asia and Oceanica. II is
already so large as to command a verv
large share of the surplus product of
the Pacific coast states. 1t will yer,
soon consume the entire surplus pro-
duct of these states. for the amount of
the new area which can be put into
wheat in the future is not very large.
The time is now within easily measur
able distance when none of the wheat
produced on the Pacific coast will be
marketed in Europe: and the with
drawal of this amount of wheat from
the European market must of necessity
result in higher price for breadstuffs
in Europe, to the profit of American
farmers.
