BOYS WELL-MEANT WARMING
Nautical Call Somewhat Out of Place When Saying Grace Was .N
 in Order. &

There is a Trenton boy who spends
 his summers with an uncle, who is an
 enthusiastic sailor. Last summer the
 lad was particularly impressed by his
 uncle's manner of singing out Hard
 a-lee!" as a signal for all hands to put
 their heads down whenever, in tackins or coming about, such proceeding was necessary to dodge the boom.
 Shortly after his return from his uncie's place on the coast, the boy was
 taken by his parents to visit his grand father ill the south of the state. Now it appears that the grandfather lis devout churchnian, never failing
 to say grace at. meals. It being the lads first visit, he gazed upon the un- usual preliminary with some wonder; .and accordingly, after leaving the ta- ible, was rebuked for not having bowed his head like the others.
 The next morning the boy showed the effects of his rebuke. When all were seated at table and his grand father inclined his head preparatory to lasking the blessing, the youngster Acaused the utmost consternation by 5piping out in a shrill voice:

gallantry of Van Bibber, it must come as a shock. Things do not happen that way in "Dickie" Davis stories.
 Other things that this writer has done have been as romantic as any thing he ever put between the covers of a book. Chicago still remembers the episode that illuminated the woo ing of his wife some eleven years ago. She was then Miss Cecil Clark, popu- lar and accomplished.
 Her Wooer being detailed in Eng land at the time when he had planned to give Miss Clark the engagement ering, there came posthaste across the sea the messenger boy, "Jiggers, who delivered the ring into her hands in MT Davis most picturesque and ex- citing style. It might have been the climax of one of his books.
 The exact nature of the legal pro- ceedings pending is not yet known, though both MT. and Mrs Davis have retained counsel; Mrs. Davis will be represented by Jerome & Rand and her husband by George Young Bauchle But as an ironic footnote to Richard Harding Davis romance, it seems that the settlement of the matter will inevi tably be divorce.

Municipal Waoon in Nottinoham.

Night watehmen about Nottingham's property receive three shillings (73 cents) for 12 hours, equivalent to six cents an hour. Some other city work men get four pence (eight cents) an hour Street laborers receive five and one-half pence (ten to eleven cents) an hour, laborers for the waterworks ten cents, and those in other depart ments 101a to 12 cents an hour. Street car conductors are paid no more than laborers till they have served two years, when they receive the maximum rate of 12 cents an hour Motormen are paid shade more. Of the policemen 45 out of 32O receive less than 12 cents an hour in cash, but an allowance for boots and uniform and an allowance from a fund for their benefit slightly advances their hourly compensation. The pay of the police force works out week at from S6.25 to $9 man for seven days work, with 21 days vacation each year.-Daily Consular and Trade Reports.

The best girt some people are ask ing for is a chance to work.
 Try systemitizing your own busi- ness and you will quit envying your merchant or banker.
 We should always keep looking for happiness. Troubles will find us with out looking for them.
 Agriculture is the oldest occupation among men and it has always been the poorest paid for it's labor.
 Those in charge of union business should originate a plan of operation, and instruct all lecturers to talk that plan.
 Too great faith In this city brother has been one of the mistakes of the farmer; this faith has let him allow the city farmer do his business for him when he should have done it him. self.
 Is there not something wrong with our economical system when one busi- ness will pay as big price for it's labor as another? The continued rise in the prices of farm products is only an adjustment that should have occurred years ago.
 Secretary of agriculture says that half the people in this country till the soil for a livehood. They are not the governing powers, however although they have the balance of power at the ballot box. It is their duty to prepare to use that power with conservatism and intelligence

SaIab!e Milk

The essential points in the handling and care of milk and cream are: First, cleanliness in every particular in producing milk; second, strict ob servance in keeping the apartments where the cows are housed properly ventilated; third, for cream, use sepa rator when five or more COWS are kept and wash the separator every time it is used and keep the cream sweet un til wanted for use.
 For milk, cool it as soon after milk ing as can be done conveniently, and avoid mixing warm milk with cold This rule applies to milk for cheese as well as market milk. Aerating milk is probably the most effective, but cool ing in cold water, if properly done with supply of ice, will fill the bill

MARRYING CORN TO COTTON
Southern States Raising an Enor- nous Quantity of the Yellow
 Grain-Texas Leads.

While the south is not generally looked upon as a corn country" the west being accorded that distinction. yet it is a fact that in 1907 Alabama harvested about 46,000,000 bushels of the great yellow cereal" Mississippi upwards of 42,000,000 bushels, Louis jana, 5000 900, and Texas, which is constitutionally opposed to doing lit tie things, or anything by halves, put out a product of 155, 100000 bushels of corn, or about 40, 100000 more bush els than the three other states to- gether, says New York Commercial.
 The south should raise more corn than now, boil weevil or no boil wevil. Large tracts of her land are quite as well adapted to corn raising as to cot ton growing, and the results average we'll up with western corn lands; the crop is easily grown easily handled and easily marketed, and corn has few CT natural enemies than many other crops Moreover, the south needs the corn and needs the money that she would save by not being dependent on the west for the cereal. Millions of dollars flow out of the south every year in payment for corn and other cereals and cereal products that might just as we'll be kept at home, ought to be kept at home.
 Furthermore, by keeping these many millions at home the south would take a long step toward the solution of the nrolIam Inf financing her great cotton crop. The time will inevitably come when not a few southern states will look back with wonder and humi'ia ton on the time when they imported 1vactaru corn

DIDN'T TOUCH THE PLANTERS
Recent Sensational Break in Cotton Had Little, If Any, Effect on
 Southern Producers.

'The recent sensational and Illogical break in the cotton market as a result of speculative manipulation had little, if any, effect on the southern pro- ducers," said MT. R. R. Little, prom inent cotton planter of Rockingham, N C., to a Baltimore American report CT the ether day.
 Tn my state the farmers have sold almost all the bales they made in 1909, although there is still small remnant of the crop left in the fields that is now being picked. It is too valuable to let any go to waste, for aside from the lint, the seed is worth 50 cents bushel. So it does not mat ter especially what the Wall street gamblers do, so far as the makers of cotton are concerned. The terrific slump of a recent Friday doesn't reach the plantation owner, but it does harm the jobbers and manufacturers These are kept in state of suspense pend- ing the subsistence of wild fluctua- tions, and all commercial transactions in their line are demoSalized.
 SOllOl at If GeIIS e pOuuQ IS SO- ing to enrich the millions of southern people, who alone of all mankind have the territory best adapted to it's growth, and who can produce it to bet ter advantage than any competitors. To make cotton and scarcely anything else was the fatal mistake of the south for generations. Our people have at last seen the necessity of treat ing it only as a surplus crop and of cultivating other things for their sub- sistence
 Tt is very tempting when cotton reaches 15 cents to put all of ones land in it, but it is bad policy, and I notice that the farmers of our region are sowing more grain this season than usual, after raising their own hogs ano breadstuffs, what they will get from the cotton will be largely clear profit. Another point that is most encouraging when survey of the future is taken: North Carolina and, indeed, the whole south, is awak- ening to the importance of getting big ger returns per acre planted. We are going in for intensive farming and are succeeding. A generation ago a yield of four bales on.a single acre would have been regarded as mythical, but that has been done in several in stances of late in the Carolinas

Raising Pigs by Hand

If you want the little pigs you are raising by hand to live, distinctly re- member one thing and that is, feed only very small quantity of milk at first and feed often. A teaspoonful to feed for each pig for the first day IS enough, and feed 10 to 12 times daily for the first two or three days. Alter that feed six or seven times a day till the pigs are two weeks old always a very small amount at each feed. Feed fresh milk direct from the COW or with perfectly sweet milk that has been warmed to nearly blood heat.

Care in Selecting Laying Stock

To increase the egg laying capacity of hens, use as breeders only birds that have been tested. A cock bird should come from family of egg lay CTS and the females should be select ed in the same way. The mother of a cock bird should be a 200-egg hen and the mother of breeding hens should at least be in the 160-egg class.
