Reply to "UnCIe Tom"

Editor News: | noticed in the last
weeks paper that "Uncle Tom" had
both feet on the union. He said un.
ionism couldn't be where religion was
and that it had ruined Tracy City.
Now, want to say if it has ruined
Tracy and he doesn't think a man can
go to heaven and be union man,
am certainly glad Uncle Tom" has
found peace in his soul, for was I'M
easy, for the scripture says, "If the
blind lead the blind they will both fall
into the ditch. That is what | say
about "Uncle Tom. He couldn'
lead blind horse to water, and him
self blessed with as good eyes as have
got. A man that can see so much
about company as he does and claim
to be a christian, isn't much. | am
glad that "Uncle Tom" has found a
resting place. hope he is right with
God. You don't know how much good
it did me when | saw "Uncle Tom
get up in the church and say, II am
on the Lords side and | want the
prayers of the christian people.
know the Bible says, Flesh nor blood
cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. -
Still | know God has blessed this man
and has put him here for some pur-
pose, and | guess it was best known to
himself. 1 have prayed time and again
for him. | saw he was the proper
child, but he is like good many 9TH
ers, who talk too much, but it is all
right now, no matter what he does.
1t doesn't matter what christian
does, he will prosper anyway.
Now, "Uncle Tom, will you be
still five minutes until | put another
star in your CROWN don't say this
to edishearten "Uncle Tom" just LET
him go ahead, for if he is a christian
and goes to heaven, l amt scared, and
| hope he is right with God. | know
God loves him and will save his soul
if he will only trust in him and not in
the company. They can't save him.
A christian man isn't going to some
one and talk about his fellowmon like
some have been doing in this part of
the country. If | claimed to be a
like some are doing. If ''Uncle Tom
can get to heaven with what religion
he has got, ! think [ will make it all
right | know something about this
good old way of living without sin. /
will tell you what I did once and what
man must do if he gets right with
God. He must go down on bis knees
and say, Here | am Lord. l know !
am weak in the sight of man and God.
Now, bless God, / know | have been
everything but man. have been a
lick for all companies and robber to
the labor union. Now, oh Lord, help
me and I will give back all have tax
en- from the poor and will pay back
fourfold. l hope the Lord will bless
'Uncle Tom" If was a christian
l wouldn't get up in the church house
and criticize the laboring class of peo-
pie. It's a shame. Papa's Boy.

Mystery of the Watermelon.

Here is mystery, according to Mr..
Bryan. He says: Il am not much Of
a farmer, as some people claim, but /
have observed the watermelon seed. 1t
has the power of drawing from the
ground and through itself POO, 600 times
its weight; and when you can tell me
how it takes this material out of its
color, forms an outside surface beyond
the imitation of art. and then forms in
it white rind and within that again
a side Of red heart. thickly inlaid with
black seeds, each one of which in turn
is capable of drawing through itself
200, 900 times its weight-when you
can explaip. to me the mystery of a
watermelon, you can ask me to ex-
plain the mystery of God.

An inquiry which will be of interest
to fruit growers of southwestern Wash
ington and northwestern Oregon was
referred to the department of horticul
ture. 1t follows:
"Kindly give me some advice con.
corning the growing of raspberries and
blackberries under the conditions found
in southwestern Washington. 1 would
be obliged to you for information con-
corning the growing of plums, cherries
and apples in this region.''
Professor w. S. Thornber replied:
"You will have no difficulty in
growing raspberries and blackberries in
your part of the country, providing you
use good judgment in selecting your va
rieties and in planting. If the low land
is we'll drained you had better plant
blaekberries, but if the land is not well
drained you will have difficulty in
growing any form of small fruit there.
However, the blackberry will come
nearer to growing in poorly drained land
than the raspberries will In choosing
varieties of blackberries, use the Nam
middle early and the Evergreen for
late. hdSpDeTTleS require uTyer ana,
especially, well drained soil, and with
such conditions in your part of the
state you should be able to grow re-
markabIe crops of them. The Cuthbert
is the standard for commercial work on
the west side; also the Antwerp, the
and the Marlboro are excel.
lent berries for growth there.
"Plums will do well upon a ver5
moist soil, and will stand a poorly
drained soil better than the majority of
other fruits The Peach, the Yellow
Egg, the Tragedy, the Willard, the LON
bard and other varieties almost without
number will do well in the region you
refer to. Almost any cherry will sue
coed there The Royal AIMS, the Bings,
the Lamberts and the May Dukes would
be good varieties to plant. The varie-
ties of apples that will do especially
well there are more or less limited.
The Yellow Transparent, the Duchess,
the Gutenberg and the Graveustein for
early apples, and the Northern Spy,
Olympia, Baldwin, Grimes Golden and
possibly a few Rhode Island Greetings
for later varieties will do quite well.
Other varieties, such as Ben Davis,
Gano and the Jonathan, do not seem to
be entirely adapted to your part Of

"Indeed! What is the matterY"

Only few years ago the only article
tasting of maple was maple sugar.
There is now an article on the market
that is so like the real maple sugar
that even old Vermonters are unable
to tell the difference. In fact, on ac-
count of its healthful qualities, being
a purely vegetable product, neither
sticky nor siekly, it is preferred by
many people who formerly used only
the regulation maple sugar.
This new extract is called Mapleine.
It is Seattle product and can be used
to advantage by the housewife in a
variety of ways. For instance, syrup
like maple can be made by simply dis.
solving graduated sugar in water and
adding a few drops of Mapleine.
The Crescent Manufacturing Com
pany who make Mapeine have pub
iished a booklet called Mapleine Dain-
ties This will be sent free on request
to anyone who asks for it. 1t is full
of wholesome recipes.

In place of eggs worth $1.6S per
fowl, if their value be computed at
present prices in Portland they would
be worth $2.5S per fowl. In other
words, on the basis of present prices,
food costing 80 cents when fed to hens
produces eggs worth $2.5S. This is n
pretty good margin of profit in feed
ing 90-cent wheat.
1t may be said that the average
flock of hens does not lay IA eggs per
fowl. That is true. 1t is also true
that 144 eggs per fowl is not phenom-
email. The right kind of hens properly
attended should average $50 and we'll
bred hens considerably more. The av-
erage farm flock will not average 1926,
probably not 100.
In these experiments all the food
eaten was paid for at market prices
and the cost averaged only &C cents
per hen. The cost would have been
only so cents if the wheat had cost 90
cents per bushel. The farmer, how
ever, who keeps fifty or a hundred
hens can do better than that, for on
the average farm that number of hens
may be kept largely on the waste pro-,
ducts or by-products of the farm. They
will find the animal food in the fields
in the shape of bugs, grasshoppers,

KASPARILLA

Ills sterling household remedy is most
successfully prescribed for a 'world OF
troubles" For arrangements of the di-
gestive organs it is natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthful activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, TO
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes Of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con-
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi-
ness, headache, backaohe and despond-
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. 1t is a
strengthening tonic of the highest value

worms, etc, and there will usually b,
! skim-milk or buttermilk. There neeo
! therefore be no cost for animal food
resulting in a saving of to 10 cents
per fowl. The clover or grass they eat
will have little marketable value. The
destruction of grasshoppers in the
clover and grain fields and of bugs in
the orchards will, where these insects
are bad, offset large part of the an.
nual cost of food for the fowls in
better crops.
In experiments with larger breeds
the cost of feeding was greater. The
cost of feeding Plymouth Rocks aver,
aged $1.15 per fowl and Of Wyandottes
500. This extra cost is largely Offset
when the fowls are marketed, the
larger breeds bringing more than the
small breeds.
