Lizzie Laney's to quilt for the Meth
odist parsonage. Some were surprised
and all saddened to find Mrs. Laney IN
bed from hurt, sustained by an over
turned buggy the day before, but she
was cheerful and heartily welcomed
everyone. Much was accomplished by
the ladies on two quilts during the
day. There were sixteen present and
il was charming sight, for a woman
is never so sweet and lovable as when
doing something to add to the comfort
and happiness of nome. The unique
part of it all was that every one car
ried lunch of her own. At noon the
edibles were spread on the table in the
dining room, and the occasion proved
regular picnic as we'll as a genuine
Quilting. Mr.. Tom Lauey was honered
with a chair at the head of the table
and became master OF ceremonies, but
he transferred his honOrs to the pas
tors wife. A charming young matron,
who sat on box near Toms side, de-
clared he looked lonely and frightened
in that room full of ladies' Industry
and sociability prevailed in the after
noon, but dark clouds and rain cur
tailed the work, which was left for
completion at another time.

A FOUNDATION STONE.

"The farmer is one of the founda'
tion stones of society,""
So says Golfers Weekly one OF the
ablest oFour periodicals. But 1t coulo
have gone further and in truth SAID
that he is the most important founda-
4ion stone. He employs each year In
this country nine million persons, and
he paws them each year three hundred
million dollars.
Three years ago it was estimated
that the products OF American farms
were worth four billion, seven hun
dred and thirty-nine million dollars,
and a prominent New York lawyer
has done some figuring on this income.
He saws it could buy up the steel trust
in one month, the Standard Oil COM
pany in two, all the smaller trusts in
two. the national banks in two, pay the
government bonded debt in two, retire
the greenbacks in one and then, at the
end of all these purchases, have hve
hundred million dollars OF the years
income left still to spend.
"We hear more about the capitalist
than the farmer" continues Golfers,
shut the farmer is nevertheless eco
nomically the most important class. ="
It must be remembered, too, that the
apriculturalists have paid little atten-
ton to organization. What could they
not accomplish if thoroughly organ
lied? By studying their own wants,
by demanding what is due them, their
prospects could still be made much
brighter.
