DID YOU KNOws

Did you know that before putting milk into a saucepan you should boil rapidly a few spoonfuis of water, just enough to cover the bottom Of the pan. and the milk will not burn, no matter how hot the fire?
 When a can is swollen out at the heads 1t signifies that the air has not been excluded fully, and the goods will probably be spoiled unless very freshly canned. Also. the presence of more than one soldered vent hole Is suspicious circumstance as to pos- sible condition of the contents of the can.

Gray December r., 1879, professed religion and joined the Methodist church in August, 1880, her membership being held at Wynne. All that knew her can realize the loss of devoted little lady. Her life was an example to those who love God and keep his commandments. By some mysterious providence she was snatch ed away from those that held Her so dear. Her suffering was great, but her spirit was strong, and when the cold and icy fingers of death were on her brow she called her little family to her side and said: T am dying, but l will live again.
 Asleep in Jesus, soon to rise
 When the last trump 5 rend the skies Then burst the letters of the tomb, And wake in full immortal bloom.
 She has been going down toward the dark valley of death for eighteen months, fading slowly but surely, when He who had given came and took her away It is sad hour when death steals in and claims one that we love Oh, how hard to bid her the last farewell. But heart broken rela- tiues and friends who stood by her bedside. trying by every earthly means to drive back the dreaded messenger but God knows best and our precious one fell asleep in the arms of Jesus tC awaken in heaven Weep not loved ones, but rest assured that all is well and let US try to live So that when the hour of death comes, we may say as she did 'I am dying but I will live again.
 She leaves husband, eight child ren, mother and two brothers to mourn their loss. Her remains were laid to rest on July 20 in Hughes cemetery. A FRIEND.

SOuth's Great Chicken Show.

Instead of sending away for chick ems and eggs, it is time for the South ern farmer and the housewife to begin raising chickens at home. In addition to saving money in household expenses there is big profit in raising poultry for the market. The fact is the South should be the greatest producer of poultry in the United States, for it has the best climate, and in all other essential conditions, surpasses any other section of the country. The Tri-State Fair at Memphis, Tennessee, believes the ionly way to stir up things in poultry way in this section is to have the biggest chicken show of rny fair in the country, and this it is going to do. The premium list and cash trophies amount to more than 5000, which ranks the Tri-State show with the big show at Madison Square Garden in New York.
 The Poultry Association expects to have on exhibition all of the noted show birds in the open classes, but it hopes also that every breeder in the Southern States will have a coop 1T the show. Special premiums are of fered 10 breeders and owners ot chickens in Mississippi, Arkansas and West Tennessee, and also to chicken owners in these states who are begin ners, and who have never exhibited chickens in show. Every breed of chickens, turkeys, etc., will be on ex- hibition at the show, and visitors will have chance to select type. Every thing in regard to raising chickens will be explained. The latest inven- tions in regard to breeders, incubators, etc, will be on exhibition. The pro- gram is the most complete ever gotten out by fair show. The show will be held in new building erected for that purpose. It will be modern in every way. Send for catalogue.
