Too Much johnson.

john Johnson CdIlle W LOWu OAC uoS
says he, work till almost dead, to
barely get my daily bread, my wife IS
almost tuckered out, so tired she can
hardly move about, and there's my
girls away to school, and my son John
is no ones fool, and he says, better
sell out, Dad" and rather think had.
Farming now days doesn't pay, and
John he wants to get away. The fruit
is killed as dead as Caesar, and daugh-
ter thinks town life will please her.
We bought the farm some years ago,
and its good one too, know, but
calves and pigs are awful high, and |
haint got the cash to buy. and it don't
pay to bank on grain, and maybe we
won't get no rain, the barn Is old. the
house is too, the fences ought to be
built new, and everything's so tarnal
high, guess I'll move to town and try
and see if can get some rest, where
bugs and cut worms don't modest, and
all our folks will have to do is sit
around year or two.
John wants an auto pretty bad,
think I'll get him one bedad. that boy
must have some exercise, and maybe
he can win the prize for running at the
county fair, and make the people stand
and stare.
Yes, times is hard, for where one
buys his flour and meat and all sup
plies, and don't raise nothing to sell,
Its cheaper in the town to dwell, and
so think I'll sell and come to town
and rest a spell. So John went home
and took "a man." and told him all
about his plan OF course, the man"
would help him out, and all the details
talked about, and after they had both
agreed. 1.-The man" began to make the
|deed
Then something seemed to inter-
vene, a woman came upon the scene,
la voice rang out both glad and free,
who's running this farm, you or me-"
John Johnson you're clear Off your
feed, I'll never, never sign that deed.
"You used to work some," said his
wife, when we first started out in life.
but now you've got so pesky lazy. and
also automobile. crazy, you talk of
moving into town, to spend your time
with old man Brown. a playing check
ers at the club, and let me rustic for
the grub. Now Mammals going on a
strike, so tell your man to hit the pike,
and you and John just get in motion,
for Mammals got a different notion,
and that means you will work a spell
once more in raising stuff to SELL in
stead OF bowling things is high" that
We should sell instead of buy.
| Get out and mend the broken fences,
instead of grooming farm expenses,
fix up the house, rebuild the stable
and work little when you're able
seed down the farm and raise more
Istock, watch the garden, not the clock
attend the chickens, pigs and calves
lets live ON what we raise ourselves
and have it sweet, and fresh and good
instead of chewing breakfast food
that's made of husks, and cobs. and
hay, made by some speculative jay tc
sell to fools like you and Brown, who
sell their farms and move to town.
"You hear me twitter now" said she;
I'm going to run this family. wher
people asks you if you've sold, just tel
them no. you think you'll hold the
farm because it gradually dawns on
another case, of too much Johnson"

4 COMPOSITE WATCH.

The News has seen composite
photographs, but not until quite
recently has il seen what might be
scailed a composite watch, 1t is the
property OF the Rev. Archibald Cree,
who is temporarily filling the pulpit
OF ne Baptist Church, this eity.The
watch. suitably Inscribed, was pre-
isenisd to Mr.. Cree by the eongre-
agation OF church in scotland "
which he was pastor. The watch
has very heavy solid gold case and
vsss originally an English lever,
key winding. After some time Mr..
Cree had it changed to stem
'winder. and later, when the orig
nall works had become much worn,
he had American works put into the
first case. Mr.. Cree naturally
prizes the watch very highly.
