Al the Bazaar.

a man strayed into a charity ba-
zaarn and had a trying experience.
He made several quite satisfactory
purchases, not knowing how to refuse
the demands of the saleswomen, and
at last, to prove that he could make
one sensible investment he bought a
small matchbox, and carried it off IN
triumph and haste. Examining it af-
ter he had left the booth, he discover
ed that there was no place on which
to strike the matches. So, with the
air OF one determined not to be
cheated, he marched back to the
young lady Of whom he had bought
the box.
There is a mistake here, he said.
You sold me this pocket matchbox,
and there is no place on it to strike
the matches.

branches. OF course, one would not
expect to mulch this much, but do not
make the mismake OF piling the mulch
up in a heap about the trunk of the
tree, as this is a detriment rather than
an advantage, and worse than no
mulch at all. &. n
The list of hardy shrubs, fruit trees,
and small fruits is too long to be:
given here, but / will mention few
that have proven hardy In this
locality. This includes all the filacs,
rosa rugosa and most Of its hybrids,
Siberian pea tree, all varieties Of
mountain ash, Russian olive, Tartar
ian honey suckles, nearly all Of the
ornamental willows, several varieties
OF hardy roses, including the following
climbing roses, crimson rambler,
Dorothy Perkins, and prairie queen.
All roses must be given careful winter
protection by mulching either with
sol, straw, or forest leaves. The
leaves. when they can be had, are
much the best, but must be covered
with boards or a little dirt to keep
them from being blown away by The
wind. OF apples, Whitney's No. 90 is.
the hardest and most vigorous Of all
known varieties, as it never blights or
Winterkills or sunscalds under any
circun instances and may be used as a
stock to top-work other varieties on.
There are q great number Of small
fruits which are hardy here, the list
being too long to mention. OF the
cultivated grapes the only variety
hardy here is Minnesota Seeding
named Beta, and this will probably
need winter protection.
s. Now, just word Of warning about:
buying stock. Most attempts at grow
ing ornamentals, and fruit trees, as
well, are a failure, owing to the fact
that as a rule beginners buy from
nurseries located too far to the south
and the stock fails simply because it
Is not hardy or acclimated to our
rather trying climate. Stock must be
adapted to the climate and conditions
under which it is expected to grow.
Trees and shrubs known to be hardy
in this latitude viii surely die If taken
from q region much farther south.
Buy stock from nurseries farther
north, IL possible, to be on the safe
side. II it is not possible to do this,
then obtain stock from nearby nurser-
les, but above all, avoid that bane Of
the northwest, the irresponsible tree
agent. II trees and shrubs have been
planted in your vicinity, investigate
and find which varieties do best. Go
slowly In the matter of untried novel
ties. Invest a little, if your Purse will
allow, but depend mostly on varieties
known to be hardy in your locality.
This cannot be too often reiterated
nor too strongly impressed on the
minds Of prospe active buyers. q !.

be the means of inducing even few
to plant a tree ! shall feel amply re-
paid for writing it. # he who causes

worthy is the man who makes two or
more trees grow where none grew be-

These are the days when the dis contented. farmers fancy lightly turns to thoughts of moving. The great railway systems of the West, flood the mails with manuals set ting forth the beauties and virtues of this and that region, each claim ing to be par excellence the house. keepers paradise. Agriculture has in this aspect taken the place of mining. In former times the thew country" that offered the most attractions to settlers from a distance, was that in which gold was taken out of the ground in big yellow nuggets or infnitesi- nal dust; in these later days the search is still for quick fortune, but the medium exploited is the growing crop, which can be turned into gold, or green backs, by the slower processes of planting, cul- tivating and harvesting; and the pioneer now has for his emblems the gang-plow and the reaping machine, instead of the pick and pan. Now, the advertising circu- lars teem with prints in which the settlers comfortable homestead and happy family are shown, pro- Jected against fields of heavy-head- ed grain, trees grooming under apples and peaches proportionate- ly as large as watermelons, and the cattle of a thousand hills grouped in pen by the side of the railroad, awaiting rapid ship ment to markets where buyers stand in line, longing for the chance to draw fat checks in pay ment. While these pictures at- tract the eye, few, if any, have ever bettered their condition by leaving our own fair county, of Woodruff, and few who have left would only be too glad to be back.

THE JOY OF HOME.

Home life is the source of ex- quisite blessing. There is noth- ing more attractive, refining and uplifting than its simple joys and tireside pleasures. The world has pleasures gay and bright but noth- ing exceeds the joy of home and bliss of our own freside. It is the place of gladness where burns the freight bright. We cross the doorsill and enter its threshold to find the garden of paradise. We cannot be indifferent to the sweet attractions, simple pleasures, pleasant conversation and sweet songs of the family circle. None are more bright, more pure and none more like the love of highest heaven. It is more like heaven than any spot on earth.

The way never to have cloudy weather is to have the sun inside of you.
 Home is where the heart is, a place our feet may leave but not our hearts. Home is where peace, joy, comfort and happiness reign. Where father whistles merrily, where children are happy, joyous and gay: where the family gathers around the evening lamp, busy with books, the needle, the papers and the playthings and bask in the sunshine of each others love.

The most important business be- fore the county court this week was that of establishing a deposi- tory for Woodruff county. Bids had been received from three of the banks in the county and were opened in the court Monday, as directed by the law. Three banks, namely, Bank of McCrory, Bank of Cotton Plant and the Bank of Augusta did not bid for the coun- tvs money. The State Bank of Hunter was declared the deposi- tory for this county, it having bid the highest. The banks that made bids ana the amounts are as follows.

There is perhaps no place where courage is more needed than in the home life by the tired house. wife and busy mother. Her daily work is but a reputition of many yesterday. She is but human and must sometimes feel worn and discouraged, but quiet confidence that we shall be able to perform whatever is right and necessary generally carries us safely through difficulties, keeping us strong and calm amid the most trying duties. No one fills place of greater re- sponsibility, nor one more worthy

Her example is worthy of imitation by the noblest of earth. There is nothing more beautiful in life than the brave spirit who thus lovingly performs her part of the labors of earth, asking no greater reward than the consciousness of having done her duty we'll and led her household to Christ. Priceless, indeed, must be the peace that stills her heart in the hour of death, and endless rest awaits the tired hands when life is done.

We wish the girls of our town would be particular about whom they go with as the boys are.
