Spring Colors.

Green and blue will be very much worn this spring and some of the green and blue combinations are invigorating to the eyes and the nerves
 A waist in navy blue lace, dyed and made up as a solid lace waist, was worn over a corset cover of green muslin. It was run with green velvet ribbons which were tied in bows on the front.
 This waist was worn with a skirt of green and blue Tartan with a blouse to match. There was a hat in green and blue Tartan plaid and big green and blue glass ornaments were stationed around the brim.
 In the spring gowns one notices the presence of fruit colors. Crab apple rad was the shade of a cloth gown worn by a society matron. It was trimmed with apple green bands The hat was an apple green cloth toque trimmed with crab ap- ples.
 One will need to own a great deal of artificial fruit this spring. and one can trim ones gown with crab apples. little red love apples. early green apples and all the variety of the grape family. Very small pinapples. mock oranges and green pears are also seen, but they rather give way to the small and very pretty spring cherry and the lovely red cuTTant.

Cumberland County Alliance Meeting.
Editor Of The Progressive Farmer

Editor Of The Progressive Farmer:
On April 8, 1908, Cumberland
County Farmers Alliance held its
regular quarterly meeting with Wade
sub at McMillan's Chapel. The day
was rainy, and but few of the breth-
rem were present, but we had a very
nice meeting. We certainly. have
some very good Alliancemen in old
Cumberland County, who, we believe,
will keep plodding along in the ranks
of the Alliance until death takes
them out. Such Alliancemen are
worthy the name they bear; they are
the tried and true to the Order and
know a good thing when they see it.
Why the farmers and laboring classes
of white people that don't belong to
the Farmers Alliance can't see that
membership would benefit them is
beyond our conception. We admit
that the Farmers Alliance is not the
place for the money grabber or selfish
person or the critic who cares for no
n except himself and pretends to
know it all, who spend their time and
money in shoddy nonsense and gods,
pretending that they are making or
are capable of making wonderful
bargains-such persons are fond of
riding the horse of success provided
some other person will feed and
groom the horse to their liking. In
deed the Farmers Alliance is at least
a benefit to everybody, whether mem
bers or not, so there is no use try.
ing to down a good thing. We are
very much surprised that the busy
bodies don't run a better thing for
us-so that we all can have a jolly
good time getting rich. If the crit
les are getting rich so fast on their
smartness that they are having the
mad itch, don't care if they would
lend us a bad case for a few days.
Our County Alliance will meet
with Wade sub Wednesday before
the second Thursday in July.

the work is done each one-sixth OF
the expense. The State has made
available for this purpose $6,5OO,O00
to be expended during the next few
years.
The principle involved in the State
aid plan is exactly the same as that
involved in the scheme for national
aid which has developed such popu-
Iarity recently. The fundamental
idea of both is hal road improve
ment is not merely a matter of local
interest and responsibility, but a
matter of interest and concern to
the whole people; or, to put it an
other way, road building is coming
to be viewed as a species of "inter-
nal Improvement" belonging in the
same class as river and harbor i'm
~provements.
Another reason why National and
State aid are becoming so popular
is the realization that, unless some
thing of the kind is adopted, the
burden of bad roads, like the poor,
will be always with us. The bottom
less roads of the country constitute
a sort of Slough of Despond" in
which the people are destined to
founder until some one comes along
to help them out. In fact the ex-
pense for improving the roads in
manylocalities is a burden which the
local population is wholly unable to
bear. It is believed that whenever
the State or the Nation reaches out
a helping hand to such communities,
they will grasp it and bend all their
energies to the great work of i'm
proving their highways, but they
will never undertake the job without
help from the outside.
The frequent rains of the past few
weeks have made the roads almost
impossible in a majority of the local
communities throughout the eastern
half of the United States. Perhaps
this is n of the reasons why the
good roads idea is uppermost in so
many minds. B.. P. W.

If fowls are confined it is highly
essential that they should be sup
piled with lime producing food. The
average hen should lay $50 eggs a
year and if she does this she will
have produced two pounds of pure

lime is derived from the natural food
but most of it be obtained from the

SPLITTING UP THE NICKEL.
Practice of New Orleans Stores and
Markets With Small Purchasers.

You would be surprised to know
the vast number of children among
the poorer classes in New Orleans who
do not clearly understand the value
and function of the nickel" said a
storekeeper downtown, "and it all re
suits from the popularity of the quar-
tie system which has always been so
much a part of life in this city. They
are the small buyers, who run all
kinds of errands for the little family
to which they belong
Purchases, amounting in individual
cases to less than cents, daily
amount in the aggregate to thousands
of dollars. 1t is no small part of the
retail traffic of the city. The children
split a nickel up into very small
pieces. buying a penny's worth of this
and a penny's worth of that. until
they leave the store or the market
with an armful of little packages
which will represent the days sup
plies.
Sometimes they will spend only
part of the nickel, and will get
ticket, or tickets, or maybe pennies
in change. Frequently the purchase
will amount to 21a cents, and then
they get a pasteboard check for the
other 21s cents. which is legal tender
at the place issuing it for it's face
value. Checks or tickets of this kind
are extensively used in this city, and
they have added greatly to the circu-
lation of a sort of crude subsidiary
money.
"One of those checks is as good as
gold at the grocery or market stall
where it is issued. 1t is predicated on

fund just like Uncle Sans money, ex
cept that instead of being redeemable
in gold on demand, it is exchangeable

any of the things in stock. or good at
the vegetable stall at the market
place for 212 cents worth of anything
on hand when 1t is presented. 1t is

to Ed. Murphy requesting him to call

We're true he would not only give her
500, but agreed to an immediate mar

This offer Miss Nottingham declined
and the quarrel was renewed and the
shooting followed.
1t was learned this morning that
Murphy had anticipated trouble of some
kind with Miss Nottingham. A few
days ago he confided his story of the
affair to Robert Duncan of Mintrun,
engineer in charge of the engine on
which Murphy was fireman. 1t lis
said that Murphy told Duncan that
Miss Nottingham had demanded 500
from him but that he would refuse to
give up the money unless she could

increase the amount of postal order
