Tobacco.

Within the mex, few weeks seed beds
for tobacco plants should he prepared
and no one who cou;emplateS growing
q crop OF tobacco this year can afford
TO neglect TO do this important work 10
the most thorough uanner. Last year
THE TINES published one OF the most
comprehensive methods Of doing this
work. with the result that those who
followed icssructions secured fine plants
and good stands when trapsplanriug.
The unfavorab!e seasons made the crop
poor in grades, bu, this was owing 10
weather conditions which came about
ct long intervals. 1t might be we'll for
those who were discouraged by last
years crop 70 remember that the con-
di,ions were 20: local, but eSterded over
mos, OF the bright leaf tobacco belt, and
by reason OF this there is DOW great
scarcity OF good tobacco. This condition
will assure the planter better prices 70.
fair grade this season than has been
paid in years. The presen, high price
OF cotton is very attractive but Il would
be suicidal 10 neglect the tobacco crop
on tha: account, as il IS not likely we
will have so poor crop another year.
and it is probable that the largest acre
age will be planted in cotton this year
than ever before and with favorable
seasons like larger crop will be pro-
duced. This condition would bring
about the same result OF some years
back. when cotton sold at 1. cents, fol-
lowed By year Q! and . cents cotton
and we all know how impossible it is 10
grow it 1t that price and make profit
on our labor. Very many OF our farm
erS have been 3, considerable expense
for barns, tobscco tires. All this would
be waste II tobacco is neglected.
The necessity and iaducenen. for
growing grain and hay crops have never
been so grea, 10 the history Of our coun-
try as ac this time. These commodities
are selling at prices that should induce
their production in grea:er quantities on
every farm. The farmer who attempts
TO run his place AID buy them IS likely
10 be confronted with 4 deficit larger
than he has dreamed OF in years OF al
most total failure in crop. Those who
vii! think back fo- few years vii!
realize cha; 1T 40 time has it been more
necessary 20 conserve our resources and
make the most OF our opportunities by
guarding the future b. past exper:enc-

ali the stations will send Us a statement
OF the liquor receipts at their sespec-

be found out whether there is as much
liquor brought into the county since
we have been under prohibition Is
there was before. There are many who
believe there is fully as much since the
dispensary closed.

To Those That Have Poultry to Sell

This is to inform people of this
locality who are soon to be visited
by poultry buyers through the
country, the condition of affairs in
the poultry line. The name Of the
concern which has these buyers out
is the New York Live Poultry Pro-
tective Association. Now these
eight firms which form the associa-
tion turn all their poultry to about
as many concerns known as jobbers.
These jobbers and commission men
are what is known by many as the
New York Live Poultry Combina-
tion. There are few independent
concerns in New York which give
more for poultry, and we have been
shipping to them. In order to
stop us from shipping outside of
the combine, they have sent buyers
into our territory to pay, as they
say, unlimited prices. We under
stand that these men are good
takers and they pay big prices, SO
viii likely buy a good deal of poul-.
try, but we want you to know the
condition of affairs. If we had not
been shipping to outside parties, or
would promise not to, we could
avoid such competition, but we are
selling where we can get the most
for it, and thereby pay more for it.
We have given You the facts as
best we know them, and would be
afraid to publish anything that was
not true. J. HENDERSON 6 Son.

Some Evening Reveries.

i
discomfort and restlessness in
| homes, not for the want Of virtue
and prayers, but because the home
lacks sunshine. Each member has
his part in making or marring the
happiness of home, yet we do not
think anyone can add to or take
from it's happiness as the mother.
When the mother is kind, patient
and cheerful, all the inmates of
that home are apt to be contented
and happy.
| No talents; no circumstances, no
opportunities will make two legged
creature a man, without energy.
The bright boys, the geniuses, who
take first prizes at school, very Of
ten fall to the rear when they are
exposed to the long and weary
competition of real life. They
lack endurance or they fail in that
energy Of purpose which no native
'smartness" will replace. It stands
to reason that what may be very
brilliant and expert in boy is far
different when measured by the
standard of manhood. He who is
content with the trivial triumphs
ofschool days will have a poor chance
in the rough and tumble of life,
while energy and invincible deter
mination will carry through the
worst of ounces ON to success.
Children should be trained to be-
have at home as you would have
them behave abroad. 1t is the
home life which they act out when
away. In the actions of children
strangers can read a history Of
home life. Something is wrong in
those homes where the little cour-
tesies of speech are ignored in the
every day home life. Scolding is
never allowed; reproof and criticism
from parents must have their time
and place, but should never intrude
so far upon the social life of the
family as to render the home un-
comfortable; a serious word in pri-
vate will generally cure a fault
more easily than many public criti-
cisms. So teach the children to be
minded, cheerful and loving,
and, above all things, to cultivate
a sweet disposition.
Young man, if you expect to at
tain success, you must work. Sue
cess does not crown the efforts of a
boy who runs away from school
and shirks his lessons. Success
does not crown the efforts of
youth who stands around the street
corners smoking cigarettes and ex-
pectorating ON the sidewalks.
Success does not crown the efforts
of man who stands around the
corners Of the street talking about
his neighbors and whiting out a
financial policy. Success is the
legitimate result of labor and ap-
plicatien to business.
1t is always best to wait for the
evidence before passing Judgment.
When you hear reports detrimental
to young ladies or gentlemen, don't
be hasty in forming conclusions.
1t is better to be charitable when
anyone is in trouble. Today it is
some one else,s boy or girl; tomor-
row it may be yours. Trouble
comes to us all and we should be
willing to extend the same charity |
we should expect from others.
Gossip distorts and magniies oc-
that have no foundation
