Boys and Girls Farm Clubs.

In recent years good work has been
done by various agencies in the way Of
arousing interest IN country life and
making the farm more attractive to
the young men and women, who are
showing disposition to apply modern
methods to the acres Of their patri-
mony. One successful new method of
agricultural education that has been
devised takes the form of boys and
girls clubs. Such clubs usually pro-
vide for prize contests among the
members. Corn growing contests are
probably the most popular among the
boys, while the girls compete in bread
making or sewing, or even test their
skill against that of boys in garden
ing. The Department of Agriculture
has information Of ninety.five counties
in twenty-eight states in which such
clubs are organized, with total mem
bership Of about IA. Coo New York
has about $500 members; Nebraska,
25,O0O; and other states smaller num-
bers. In most cases these clubs are
organized under the auspices OF some
state authority.

A CORROBORATION.
OF Interest to Paris Readers,


For months Paris citizens have seen
in these columns enthusiastic praise of
Doan's Kidney Pills by Paris resi-
dents. Would these prominent people
recommend a remedy that had not
proven reliable? Would they confirm
their statements after years had elaps-
ed if personal experience had not
shown the remedy to be worthy of en-
dersement? No stronger proof of
merit can be had than cures that have
stoode the test of time. The following
statement should carry conviction to
the mind of every Paris reader.
Mrs. J. w. Huffman. lis N. Main
street Paris, KY, says: Il gladly
corroborate the public statement !
gave in 1906 in which ! made the fact
known that had used Doan's Kidney
Pills with satisfactory results. / had
sharp pains across my back and kidneys
and at times was so miserable that /
could hardly attend to my work. Head
aches and dizzy spells were also com
mon. Doan's Kidney Pills removed
all these symptoms of disordered kid
neys and / have never had any return
attacks. ;"

The time for Spring work will soon
be upon US when farmers will be rush
ed and will have but little spare time
During these days Of enforced idle
ness, when mud or snow prevents more
active work, is a good time 10 get
ready. The gear and harness should
be gone over and mended; farming
utensils should be looked over: nuts
frightened and missing bolts replaced.
If new pillow points are needed they
should De procured now. A good coat
of paint will add both to the looks and
the lasting qualities CT many tools and
should not be forgotten. Chicken
coops may be put together. grspe vines
and fruit trees trimmed and much
other work be done now instead of at
later date when work is pressing and
time more precious.

A neighboring newspaper man in
passing the home of the sweetheart of
a delinquent subscriber saw the couple
loving embrace. IN an attempt to
collect his due he stated in his paper
that the following week he would pub
lish the name of the young man seen
with his sweetheart head On his
shoulder if he didn't come across with
a dollar on subscription. Twenty seven
young men slipped in the day after the
paper was issued and forked over a
dollar each. Several others wrote that
they would hand him the money the
first time they were in town. He
promised each one faithfully that he
would not make the threatened publ
cation 1t was certainly a mean trick,
even if it did accomplish great results.
