Having a Picnic.

There is something particularly enjoyable
about going to Picnic. The very word
Picnic brings pleasant anticipatons of q
good time. The idea of going out to the
woods and fields or down by some brook or
lake, with luncheon to be served on the
grass and under the trees, has. a peculiar
fascination. The fresh air and exercise:
contribute to give hearty appetite to all.
and everything at luncheon seems far
better than the finest course dinner that
a French chef ever served. Wooden dishes
supplant Dresden china, and paper boxes
silver trays, when the "good things to
eat" are spread upon the ground. q,
Pic.Nics are never complete without the,
sandwiches, sweet white bread with a gen
erous layer of meat between. Libby,s
canned meats are ideal for Pic-Nics and
outings. The cans are SO easily opened
and the contents so fresh and palatable
that no Picnic is a success without
Libby's Natural Flavor" Food Products.

HIS IDEA OF PLYMOUTH ROCK.
Small Pupil in Doubt as to Whether
It Was a Hen or a Rooster.

It Was Hen or Rooster. Il
During one Of my visits through
the country districts" said the pro-
fessor, "I happened to reach small
village where they were to have a
flag raising at the schoolhouse. After
the banner had been flung to the
breeze, there was an exhibition Of
drawings which the pupils had made,
and of the work they had done during
the year.
1.-The teacher recited to them, The;
Landing Of the Pilgrims and after
she had finished she requested each
pupil to try and draw from his or her
imagination a picture Of Plymouth
Rock.
"Most of them went to work at
once, but one little fellow hesitated,
and at length raised his hand.
"'Well, Willie, what is it?' asked
the teacher.
Please ma'am, do you want us to
draw hen or rooster?'"

Readwork Bad for the Eyes.

Many physicians are down" on
beadwork and they recommend
mothers to discourage their little
daughters in trying their eyesight
over beadworl. Do not hasten the
day when your daughter must go TO
the oculist to have her eyes examined
for prescription glasses. The long
curriculum Of lessons in modern
schools, the claims of textbooks,
music lessons and drawing lessons
make quite enough demand on the eye

necessary. claims Of fancy work.

narrow Eeduc.s the Labor.


The Southern soil tillers are now
wisely selecting the best implements
to aid them in destroying weeds and
.pulverizing their lands. The harrow
is not found on every farm, and yet it
will accomplish more work in one day
in putting the crop in good condition
than the plows they are using Will in
two. The harrow is Of special benefit
in being passed over the Irish potato
plants, and even when an inch high in
tearing the surface Of the soil and yet
not injuring the plants. The harrow
with teeth .sloping backward at an
angle Of forty-fve degrees will do no
harm to corn two inches high or
wheat four inches high. Try it on
small plot of corn or half the field
and observe the difference in thirty
days thereafter with the part now har.
rowed.
The heavy rains after the corn has
been planted pack the surface soil,
and that prevents the spring suns from
warming the soil to the depth of four
inches, where the young corn roots
are too cold to perform their natural
functions. The sloping teeth of the
implement will tear up the coating,
and the corn plants will put on new
life. The harrow will greatly reduce
the farm work in keeping the young
crops cleau. A harrow with seventy
five teeth will clean Up the young
weeds or grass on fifteen acres in one
day. The young plants may be laid
down on the soil for day, but it will
soon lift its head, and then it will
more than make up for the time lost
while down. Friends, get out of your
old ways and put into your crops
better implements and they will in
crease the yield Of corn more than the
cost of the new implement.

Level Planting,

Bedding for cotton is q distinct
error. AS our correspondent says it
necessitates cutting too many roots in
cultivating. But that is not all. Where
the roots start out vigorously hunting
for food and water, they soon strike
dry soil and hot sunshine. They must
stop or turn down or grow into the
hot air. While the roots are settling
this question the plants are suffer-
for food and water and throwing
squares.
These cotton beds have cost mill ~
Of loss to the cotton crop. Cotton does
not form squares and bolls simply for
the purpose Of throwing them off later.
They should have stayed on and made
cotton. Generally it is our fault if
they shed. Our mistakes have forced
cotton to shed until we have con-
cluded that it is its nature to shed.
This is q mistake. Cotton rightly cul-
tivated will not shed. Give cotton
stalk plenty of water and food and it
will not shed unless you cut off the
roots. This does not necessarily in
crease the width of tie rows. The
fertility Of the soil mainly decides
that. Usually four feet is best. But
as to the blowing there need be no
point to cut deep in the row anywhere.
Use plows so adjusted as not to cut
more than an inch.-Southern Guilt

We take this way of saying to the
people of Five Mile Beach that we
have sold land in Wildwood since July,
1904, to one hundred and thirty-five
different people, over n hundred of
whom are from other states than New
Jersey, and who bought either premi-
um or other lots.
In our sale last year we had applica-
tons for AZ lots after the lots in the pre-
MUM sale were all taken. The future
value of the lots in our present pre-
MUM sale is growing upon the people
of this island, many of whom are buy
ing now, for it is clear it will be a ma
ker of money TO all who hold contracts
in it. 5000 a lot in monthly payments
OF SO with life insurance while paying
is within the reach of any thrifty
person. BAKER BROTHERS,

Democratic County Convention

The Cape May County Democratic
Convention at Court House last Satur-
day nominated Councilman H. w.

ton, as did also Capt. Samuel E. Perry,
of Atlantic City, candidate for Con-
gress. EX-Judge Howard CarroW, the
prominent Camden lawyer, also spoke.
OF the candidates named Messrs. Cobb
and Ewing are we'll known to our citi-
zens, and Mr.. Corson, the candidate for
Sheriff, conducts a barber shop and
cigar store at the county seat and has
been collector of Middle township for a
number of years. He is said to be a
very popular man and it is thought he
will give a merry race to his Republican
opponent, w. II. Bright, of Holly
Beach. After the convention candidate
Black and his party went to Woodbine
in the afternoon and in the evening the
campaigners held a mass meeting at
Cape May, where it IS said candidate
Corson made a rafting good speech.
The campaign can now be said to be
fairly open in Cape May county and it
promises to be a spirited one, as both
parties have nominated good men who
