Victim of Cruel BuncO Game.

Mrs. Florence Nicely, widow,
travelling with two baby girls,
from Burnside, KY, was the vic
tim of a bunco game while on a
Queen and Crescent train near
Oakdale, Tenn. The husband of
woman died several weeks ago,
leaving her with two children in
destitute circumstances. Some
time ago she moved to Burnside
from a country place back in the
mountains, and very recently a
brother in Madison, Ark, sent
word for her to come to that
place and reside. She sold all
her household goods for enough
money to buy a ticket to Chatta-
nooga and have $40 left.
Coming down on the train the
two children become hungry and
were attracted by the wares car

She offered the newsboy the $40
bill. in payment..of a purchase, but
he did not have the change. A
stranger sitting across the aisle
volunteered to secure the change
saying he could get it in the next
car. He went ahead and return
ed in a few minutes, handing her
a bill and saying that he could
not find the change.
Arriving in Chattanooga she
offered the bill to payment for
her supper, and found that the
bill returned to her by the stran-
ger was a Confederate note.

Hardwood Floors.

The best hardwood floors for
every day usage are those which
are either waxed or oiled. A
floor that is shellbacked as a
great many hardwood floors are
does not wear well. 1t shows the
marks of boot nails and is easily
scratched. Unless it is careful
ly coversd with rugs it is as much
Of a nuisance as carpeting. The
waxed floor is really the ideal
floor for all rooms except the
kitchen. The ordinary oiled floor
is the best for the kitchen, where
there is so much hard usage. 1t
does not show boot marks and
can be easily washed. 1t will
often remain, under ordinary
conditions, very clean and neat
looking for half a year or more,
without renewing the oil. The
proper oil TO use is boiled oil; and
it should be rubbed into the floor
until the pores are filled with it.
In time it becomes oxodized, so
that a permanently glossy sur
face is produced.

The Late Potato Crop.

The late potato crop in this
section of the State is reported
seriously endangered by long
dry spell. Potatoes have been
planted for more than six weeks
and should be nearing maturity.
However, the vines are small and
in most cases thin and sickly.
Unless there are copious rains.
followed by warmer weather,
within the next two week the
late crop will be practically a
failure. This same state of af-
fairs surrounded the late crop
last year. In consequence seed
potatoes this year sold at record
prices. In the early part of the
season, weather conditions were
ideal and the early crop was of
excellent quality and afforded a
heavy yield and prices got very
low.

With her rules of living she
mixes a wholesome philosophy.

Big Trade in Export Cattle

Montgomery and Bath counties

cattle for the last three months.
The shipments from Mt. Sterl-

amounted to 1900 head, includ-

brought to Mt. Sterling for ship
ment. The cash money paid out
for those cattle amounted, in
in round numbers, to $420, 900.
1t has been one of the biggest
years for fat cattle that this
section has had for some years.
Feeders and handlers have made
good money. Feeders think next

How To Feed Hens.

There is a knack in the feed
ing of hens that must be learn
ed by experience. The hens
must be well fed, and yet should
always be little hungry during
the day. They are not satisfied,
but in the evening they may be
fed all they will clean up readily.
1t is a long standing custom of
poultrymen to feed hens a mash
once day, and this may be fed
morning or evening, according
to convenience. At the Kansas
Experiment Station evening feed
ing has been found probable.
Where meat and green feed are
well provided the feeding of a
mash may be discontinued, fed
at intervals, or dropped from
the bill of fare entirely.

Do Your Own Fishing.

The world is a great pond filled
with fish, and your chance of get
ting fish is just as good as that of
your neighbor. You must use
the right kind of bait, and you
must have the requisite amount
of patience. Don't CHI ange your
location every 9TH er minute.
Stay where you are. The fisher
man who is first on one side of
pond, and then on the other,
never goes home with a good
catch-of that be we'll assured.
Remember this: You must do
your own fishing. You will new
err catch any fish standing around
looking at your neighbor while
he does his fishing however long,
ingly you may look at him. Ii
you expect fish you must get
them yourself. Cutting bait is
good but it does not produce re-
suits like holding your own fish
ing rod and going latter them. =
No one can take your place. The
requisite strength you may not
have at first but it will come by
the use of what you have. One
fish caught by your own efforts
is better than score caught by
the skill of some one else. Catch
them yourself and you have som.
thing more than the fish you
