row is beyond the scope of their
vision. And, my boy, there ale
eyes of men which fall in love with
small feet-with red cheeks-with
a certain colored eye-with curl
or ringlet-with style of danc-
ing-with a machiue-made smile
with white neck or with hills
of snow, summit-inished with liv-
ing violets. All these things in
themselves are vanities, my boy.
The purchase made for one of these
beauties wears like plaster-of paris
statuary-soft, hollow-light, and
certain to turn a dingy shade.
Small feet may be cut off by cars
or distorted with rheumatic pains.
Red cheeks may thank French
saucers, severe pinching, drugs or
disease, for an existence. The
fancy eye, unless the heaven. born
love-light burns we'll and steady
therein, is more dreaded to look
upon than a battlefield. The curl
which electrified you, as it fell
down upon your face, or just
touched your neck by accident,
may have been made by BARRIERS
tongs, or may be driven away by
fever. People do not always dance,
my boy. Machine smiles are like
Barlow knives-ft for children
only. The white neck married by
gas light may show better IN two
hours after the ceremony on a
colored cloth than on the beauti-
full veins SO freshly playing under
the skin below. The little hills of
snow may be colder than Alpine
glaciers-may disappear like ar
ticles in the hands of magician,
or friendship when adversely comes.
or from cause which follow effect,
and the violets thereon will be-
come like paper flowers, misshapen
and oderless. All these single pic
lures, which catch the glance of
surface.seeking eyes, make poor
anchors to drag on, while riding
out the dark hours of life.
And, Walter, my boy, there are
eyes of women which look not be-
yond the shade of their lashes-
which but glance at the column Of
figures without noticing the foot
ings. And the footings of figures
and the footings of life are much
the same. Large or small, as set
in proper places. These eyes see
only nice pair Of whiskers-a
soft hand-neat instep-a curly
head of hair-a gold watch and
scala staggering gait-a broad
cloth case full Of style. And, my
boy, wedlock gives good women
whose greatest fault is poor eyes,
to these men-as you and us for
want of better places hang our
coats on dead limbs, our hat on the
door knob, our watch on a gimlet
bored into the wall, or throw a vest
on a bunch of thistles.
We all have a long walk ahead.
A very long walk, my boy, and
you nor US know just when the
gate will open and we shall step
forth. And, my boy, light will be
our dress-few the cults. And as
we walk down the path which leads
from the shore of the dark river,
how much will we see which now
escapes observation! The road
walked in life will be walked again,
and thousands Of little things now
unnoticed will stand forth like
sentinels. And, my boy, you and
US will wonder why our eyes never
beheld their index fingers, guiding
right or left. Plain will they be
then. Large will grow our eyes as

THE USE OF EYES.

R4ALTER, my boy, the road we
are travelling day after day, to
and from our regular place of
business, is one so we'll known
that blind man could walk it
if he only knew all the crooks,
turns, broken planks, holes and
dangers therein. But there is
another road, my boy, to walk.
safely over which needs eyes. Not
dead eyes, covered by carelessness
as plants are covered with news
papers and other sheets to guard
them against frost, but live eyes,
which register as fast as the I'M
preston is received There is the
physical walk thru life and the
spiritual walk to eternity. Not
one man in twenty knows what his
eyes were made for. Optics are
like trottlng horses-the best
trained ones get over the most
ground. The vision Of some peo-
pie points inwardly, no matter
where it starts from. One man
walks heedlessly along and stun
bles from a steamboat. Another
1umps from one car to another,
and, because he could not see
danger, foolishly becomes candi-
date for a hearse and sextonical
orders. Another man walks along
the road, stubs his toe, and then
picks himself up, looking very
foolish, and afraid some one saw
his downfall A lady with silk
and satin we'll arranged and dis
played on her fair form, is so in
tent on winning eye-shots from
some loaferish crowd that she runs
against dry-goods boxes, rubs
against door jambs or awning posts,
and rends her dress or daubs it's
smooth folds with close stlcking
paint Another person, my boy,
is always late at the cars-late at
church-late everywhere, because
he does not see how time flies.
Eyes were given us for a wise
purpose. We have two Of them.
That means something, my boy.
And they have an outer reflection
and an inner one. Your eyes are
young yet. They will bear much
training. Teach them what to do,
my boy, and we'll will they perform.
Not that they must speak of all
they see or all they gather in. The
little pictures they photo
graph will, if preserved, make an
abundant stock In trade for any
person. Eyes are wealth to one
who has learned his trade.
Aud there is much to see with
the inner eye. We will walk along
slow, and learn. You, Walter, my
boy, may see the picture we have
saved.
The man who is always late at
business never will be wealthy un-
less by accident The woman who
hangs invisible weights to her
chin whenever talking to her hus-
band-whose welcoming smiles are
convex, with .acidulated edges,
never adds over-much to her store
of happiness. Well-trained eyes
see much of this. They see wives
smiling on every one, except their
husbands. This is a sad picture
with more of misery for back
ground than the world, with all
its smartness, ever sees. And, my
boy, there are men whose laughs,
songs, jests, and anecdotes are
given literally outside their family.
Good eyes will see the reason
poor eyes will not notice-medium
eyes will wonder at the fact. And
there are men who 60 on from year

We judge tree by its fruits This is
scriptural and therefore it is the very essence
of truth and good sense. If man points out
to you peach or an apple tree in your Or
chard and tells you the tree is worthless,
that it will not bear good fruit nor much of a
yield, but if year by year that tree goes on
budding and blooming in season and at the
right time bringing forth rich, luscious peach
es or mellow delicious apples, as the case may
be, you will wisely judge the tree by it's
fruits and not by what this man has told you,
or listen to similar tales from other people.

HOLDING THE COTTON.

The Farmers Educational and Co-opera-
tive Union OF America has completed arrange
ments whereby it plans to hold what now re-
mains Of last years cotton crop until the price
1t desires is paid. Such an attempt a few
years ago would doubtless have been futile
but this organization now seems to be strong
enough and sufficiently determined to carry
out It's intent. The members of the organi-
zat2on say that greater diversity of crops
will be raised by the Southern farmers than
was ever known before.
AS cotton and wool are the bases of textile
manufacture and as both products are used
to great extent IN manufacturing combina-
lions, the supply, demand and price are always
important topics in the industrial world. In
way the supply of cotton is excessive and
the major part Of the American crop is ex
ported. But Notwithstanding the fact that
wool is not bought in foreign countries in the
same proportion that cotton is sent out from
the South, the position Of wool seems to be
just the reverse.
The supply OF cotton can be increased in
Well-nlgh unlimited quantities, but this is
not true of wool, which cannot be increased
to meet the desired requirements for manv
years. Indeed, it is doubtful, manufacturers
say, if it ever could. Yet taking those facts
into consideration in this respect prices for
cotton are in reality high and prices for wool
are comparatively low-just the reverse of
the situation which supply and demand are
expected to regulate, considered from a
standpoint of political economy.
But taking broad and comprehensive
view of the future, there seems to be little
reason for pessimism either on the part of the
textile manufacturer or the cotton grover, for
it would seem that but a comparatively short

Did you ever see we'll drilled, we'll disci-

The movements were all in perfect rhythm and
cadence and the men moved like machines, ev-
cry one doing the some thing exactly at the
same time. On another part Of the field
company of raw recruits were being taught
the elementary principles of the drill. They
were as awkward as hogs on ice. Every man
was acting for himself no harmony, no con-
cert Of movement. This is exactly the way
it is in any organization. There must be unity
of action, harmony Of sentiment oneness of
purpose, otherwise confusion and failure re-
suit. The Farmers Union, when it becomes
like the we'll drilled company, each member
understanding the principles of the Order;
each member keeping in mind the obligations
he has solemnly taken, and each one living
strictly and entirely up to these principles
and obligations, will win everything we
undertake to do. Can We not do this9

Nut trees are more profitable and just as
ornamental as oaks and other popular shade
trees.
In setting trees, pack the soil firmly around
the roots, from the bottom to the top, and not
at the top only
All highly colored fruit is not frst-class,
but is always better than the poorly colored
fruit Of the same kind.
High grass and weeds is fine place in an
orchard for rabbits and mice, but it is poor
place for young trees.
Proper cultivation and fertilization will not
not only affect the size Of the fruit, but it will
largely affect the color and flavor.
A distinctive name for an estate is much to

The wild goose plum, once so popular has
grown into disfavor because it sprouts so
badly from the roots. There is now fruit of
much better quality.
1t is evident that some cannot work as we'll

Large pear orchards are being set in the
Ozark regions Of Arkansas and Missouri They
are owned by capitalists who live in the cities
and employ managers to take care of their
pear trees.
Many inexperienced people seem to think
that just any old way will do for setting out
trees, planting bulbs and vines. In conse-

Cold storage is a success as far as apples
are concerned After having been in storage

Two very important things are to be OBJ
served in transplanting trees-one is that the
balance between the root and the top be in
the right proportion, and the other is that the
roots have plenty of soil, well-packed, and
well-drained, in which to start.-Texas Farm

EhOFHE
If developments confirm the news that
comes from Texas concerning the prospect
i've revolution in the cotton business, the
planters Of the Lone Star State are to be con-
graduated. Fifteen cents pound for cotton
is a good price, and promises more opulence
for the cotton raisers even than they are now
enjoying. But the best part Of the matter
is that, according to the Texas information,
this money is to go to the planter-to he man
who actually does produce the starle-and not
to the men who do their farming in luxurious
ly furnished Offices in tall buildings in the
cities. 1t is, in fact, realization Of the hopes
and plans of several generations. It nay be
said to have been the dream Of the falmer's
life to sell his products directly to tie con-
sumner, or at least directly to the manufacture
er Of the finished goods, cutting out the mid
die men and Intermediates who absorb prac-
tically all the profits
This seems to be just what has been done
in the matter of this great cotton deal made
by the Texas Farmers Union. Cotton direct
from the Texas field to the spinners in Europe
means the cutting out of much costly handling
and re-handling, and the absorption by the
planters themselves Of large percentage Of
profit that has long been considered necessary
tribute to the men who never raise pound of
cotton nor manufacture yard of clolh.
There is significance in the announcement
that the National Farmers Educational and
Cooperative Union is back of this move
ment. In fact, this deal, if it really even
tuates in what it promises, is the fist big
result to come from the spirit Of organization
that has been growing among the country CO.
ple-it is significant of the great things that
are made possible by organization and united
action, where they are mutual.
The rural population of the country is the
greatest power in the nation, but 50 long as
there was nothing but individual action and
individual resources to be depended upon, the
great strength was dormant. The formation
of organizations, such as the one referred to,
gives just the magic touch necessary to call
into life that giant strength that is resistless.
1t is said that this one organization has
three million members scattered over the
country. Twenty thousand Of these are said
