On Authority Of Teacher.

A quick-witted boy, asking food at
a farmhouse too recently ravaged by
other hungry fishing truants, was told
that he was big enough to wait until
he got home.
"Of course, if you have children
with you" hesitated the kindly
woman Of the house. and was imme-
diately informed that there were six
children in the party
mo, don't tell fb, neither" was
the indignant protest later drawn
forth by the condemnation Of one who
had shared the good bread and butter
thus secured. "Fib nothin' We're
children six times over. We're chill
dren Of our father and mother, chill.
dren of God, children Of our country,
children Of the church an children Of
grace. Teacher said so last Thursday,

COTTON MEN DIFFER.
Views Of Factors Vary Widely as to
Condition of Cotton Market.

Atlanta.-Atlanta cotton men are
seeking with only mediocre success to
dope OUT the prospects for the sea-
spn with regard to prices and crop
estimates Views as to one vary here
as widely as opinions touching the
other.
Many of the professional traders
are bearish on the market. 'In my
opinion the price is now between 100
aid 200 points too high" said one of
them. but the bulls smile indulgently
when such views are voiced, and then
point to the statistical records. And
neither side appears willing to admit
that there is anything at all reason
able in the opposing arguments. I.
Opinions being so utterly at vari-
ance the only safe thing to 60 by

Poultry Yards.
The farm poultry keeper of the old
school does not yard his fowls. The
fancier, who is generally village or
city dweller, is obliged to construct
yards. AS the fancy poultry breeders
are the ones who do most of the writ
ing for the poultry papers, the idea Of
yards becomes infused into poultry lit
erature, with the result that farmers
who begin to take an interest In poul-
try breeding often go to the expense
Of building poultry yards in imitation
Of the town poultryman. Now, as
matter of fact, yarded poultry can
be made to give really better results
than fowls on free range, but it takes
a lot of unnecessary labor to supply
them with the shade, exercise and
green food that they secure on the
range. Yarded fowls, if left to take
care of themselves to the extent that
the free range poultry may be, will
prove improbable. By all means those
who are situated where the chickens
may run free should not bother with
yards, except small run on one side
of the house. which may be used in
stormy wintry weather or when the
hens threaten the destruction of some
favorite garden crop

Where a wheel hoe or horse cult
vator is used the amount of hand labor
will be reduced to a minimum. All
that is necessary is to hoe out or pull
the weeds in the rows. The root crops,
such as beets and parsnips, should be
sown rather thickly and thinned to
four to eight inches apart In the row.
This can be done with a narrow blad-
ed hoe or by hand.
Cultivation should be kept up until
