The following sentiments are Just
the thing to write upon the place

Blessings be about you. dear. wher'

Her voice was ever soft, gentle and
low, an excellent thing In woman.
Mistress of herself. though China

She moves goddess and she looks

Water ank.

I have prevented this. says a writer
in the Popular Mechanics. by making
the arrangement shown In the illustra-
tion. Iron-hooped barrels were used
for tanks. They were sawed in the cen
ter and the half-barrels set on a board
platform made Of several planks. The
ons shown is made of three half bar
rels, the center one being a listle
larger than the other two. They were
held in place on the planks with a
piece of two by four inch material bolt
ed at each end. Their inner surfaces
were notched to fit the barrels Two
short pieces Of pipe connect the cen
ter tank to the other two. The center
tank receives the water from the
source OF supply. A small stream of
water. keep flowing in and out all the
time. keeps the water from becoming
stagnant
The earth can be kept dry about
water tanks of any kind by preparing
the base as shown. The overflow or
leakage will drain away and prevent

Buying Fertilizers.

The matter of plant food Is all I'm
portant In purchasing fertilizers.
When a farmer invests in ton of an
average commercial fertilizer he buys.
In reality. only about 900 pounds of
actual plant food. II he buys a high
grade fertilizer. he may receive as
much as 500 pounds. 1t costs as
much to mix ton of fertilizer con-
tanning 300 pounds of plant food as it
does one containing 900 pounds. The
cost of sacking. hauling and freighting
is the same.
