Every housekeeper should know that
If they will buy Defiance Cold Water
Starch for laundry use they will save
not only time, because it never sticks
to the iron, but because each package
contains 16 oz.-one full pound-while
all ether Cold Water Starches are put
up in A-pound packages, and the price
is the same, 10 cents. Then again
because Defiance Starch is free from
| all injurious chemicals. If your grocer
tries to sell you a 1907. package it
is because he has a stock on hand
which he wishes to dispose of before
he puts in Defiance. He knows that
Defiance Starch has printed on every
package in large letters and figures
"16 ozs." Demand Defiance and save
much time and money and the annoy
ance of the iron sticking. Defiance
never sticks.

that a wife made to her husband when
he came home at three o'clock in the

"The man came home very quietly.
In fact, he took off his shoes on the
front doorstep. Then he unlocked the
door and went cautiously and slowly
upstairs on his tiptoe, holding his
breath.
"But light was streaming through
the kephole of the door of the bed
room. With a sigh he paused. Then
he opened the door and entered.
His wife stood by the bureau fully
dressed.

for me, my DEAR he said.
"T haven't been,' she said. I just

While all the candidates for Clerk
of the Superior Court are worthy and
deserving Democrats, one of them

RACES. Mr.. A. B. Hollowell is an
old Confederate soldier.
It has been several years since one
of this noble band has had an Office
of profit in this county, and probably
this is the last time one of them will
be ar applicant, for their number is
rapidly diminishing and soon the
last one will ''cross over the river

I would emphasize the fact that
we would honor ourselves by nomi-
mating this old soldier unanimously.

WOMEN OF THE south.
Movement to Erect a Monument in
Their Honor.

Their Honor.
This generation will see a mOnu-
ment erected to the "WOmen OF the
Confederacy," as the movement
given tangible shape at Louisville in
1906 is steadily broadening and the
Baltimore Sun thus sums up the
situation:
"The cost was apportioned among
the camps of the veterans through
out the country. Up to the time of
the meeting of the association in
New Orleans on April 18th of this
year "a camps had raised their allot-
ments and many others were at
work. At the New Orleans meeting
in April strong resolutions we're
adopted calling attention anew to
the matter.
These resolutions are now pub
lished by order of General Stephen
D. Lee, the commander-in-chief of
the veterans, and to them he adds
his own urgent request for an early
compliance by all camps that r in
default. Let the veterans he says,
see to it that the funds are at once
got together to build a monument so
conspicuous as to attract the notice
of the world
The appeal is not made to Confed-
crate veterans alone. The various
camps of this organization do not
contain many wealthy men. The
appeal is made to the whole southern
people, and never was there a stron-
ger appeal. It should reach especi-
ally that class of southern men now
approaching or past middle life who
were children during the war or
were born afterward Of the noble
women of the Confederacy. Multi
tudes of these men r prosperous.
Many of them are wealthy. It is
safe to say that they owe more to
their mothers than all the monu-
ments that can be built would sig
Nifty.
To the southern child in the war
time the mother had to be father as
we'll as mother. The father was at
the front; the mother was at the
home caring for the family, manag-
ing the farm, raising food for the
army making clothes for the soldiers
and bandages for the wounded, bear
ing all things, hoping all things, en-
during all things. What she en-
dured, what she suffered, none but
those who 'have trodden the Wine
press d ever know. She was there
to receive the rough coffin with hus-
band or son or father in it, and her
prayers went up like the smoke of
the incense.
Nor wa it at the home alone that
she wasthe ministering angel. Thou
sands of them went to the hospitals,
on the fields and in the cities, nursed
wounded soldiers back to health or
received the last message of those
who died far from friends and home.
"Such gentle charity, such devo-
ton to a cause, such love, such hero
ism had never been seen among
men. The resolutions adopted in
New Orleans we'll define the effort
as one ito honor in such imperishable
form as will transmit to all genera
tions the sublime heroism, patient
devotion, unconquerable fortitude
and noble patriotism Of the women
of the Confederacy.'"

The Farm Ice House.

Every farmer should have a supply
of ice. There are but few localities
where ice cannot be obtained with but
a short haul.
An expensive house is not necessary,
as all that is required is a building
with sides and roof, situated on ground
well drained.
The blocks of ice should be cut of
a uniform size with smooth edges. so
that they will back closely. The best
tool to cut ice for small houses is a
cross-cut saw with one handle re-
moved.
There should be no floor under the
Ice. A thin coat of sawdust or chaff
should be spread on the ground and
the ice packed in even layers, leaving
space of foot all around, which
should be packed full with sawdust
or chaff.
To keep well the ice should be at
least eight feet deep, exclusive of a
foot or more of sawdust or chaff. which
should cover it.
Plenty of ventilation should be fur
nished, being careful not to have a
too free circulation of air.
In taking out the ice, care must be
taken not to dig out holes in the ice,
but commence at one side or corner
and remove a cake at time until a
whole layer is taken out, and at all
times see that the ice is we'll covered.
When neighbors are close together,
1t is an excellent plan for several to
go in together and put up an ice sup

in one house the smaller the per cent.

Oxen on the Farm.

With the development of farm ma
chinery there has come demand for
faster walking team, on the road
and in the field, than can be obtained
by the use of oxen. Horses can stand
the work Of pillow or harrow in warm
weather better than oxen, are more
convenient to drive and are generally
better handled by such hired help as
are usually employed upon farms. I
am very sure that the. writer will find
pair Of horses necessary to work his
sixty acre farm properly. Still, oxen
are very useful upon farms to-day and
may be made source Of profit as
well as being useful for much work
that will relieve the horses. They
will save the horses time by drawing
manure while they are busy on the
burrows. by drawing hay while the
horses are moving, raking or tedding
and in many other ways that will sug-
gest themselves during every season
Of the farm work. The outfit for
an OK team is very inexpensive, consist
ing only Of yoke, stout pole in the
farm cart and few chains.
Oxen should always be broken to
wear a yoke. The breaking Tor handy
ing) should be done while they are
young. Farmer boys usually enjoy
such work and can do it better than
men. Oxen are readily shod for road
work by any blacksmith who has the
necessary apparatus. They are con-
fined in sings, one foot at time is
drawn onto short post and securely
fastened, when the shoes are fitted
and nailed. A shoe is made for each
side Of the hoof, making eight shoes
worn by every OK. The Herefords
make the oxen that are the most pop
ular in New England, although the
Shorthorns are close second. Calves
designed for oxen should be castrated
before they are two months old. The
operation should be performed by some
one who thoroughly understands It.
Unless there is some person who has
had successful experience in the work
near by, would advise securing the
services of veterinary.-B. Walker
