You will be a better farmer by TAX

You can't expect to cultivate g
neighhoy's friendship by narrowing his
feelings.
A man who worries very little may
also be called nan whose compla-
cency has worried very many. =

Some people are always, complain

real gauge Of wealth.
A farmer expects good workman

without having learned his own bust

Texas cattle raisers have discover
ed that there Is difference Of 300
per cent between the price received
by them and that paid by the con.

Few men would admit that their
wives know anything about business
but a great many will follow rheir
advice, and then take all the credit for
themselves.
A man driving to town in the mud
was asked If he favored narrowing the
roads. Make them as narrow as you
please" he replied, "but for hesven's
sake don't make them any deeper"
Don't think that you can peg away

Course In Kindness.

We believe that there should be q
course in the public schools, all grades,
devoted to umanity-kindness the
rights Of four-footed and feathered
focks.
We are improving slowly. We lay
out bird reservations. Robins nest in
the naples in our most crowded dis
tricts. Birds that for years sought the
depths Of the forests now rear their
young within hearing Of the roar of
the street cars. In some subtle way
they know that their chances for pro-
lection have been increased, claims
the Cincinnati Post. They do not
know that kindness is being taught
and brutality discourage in countless
homes
Yes, we are improving, but we want
the world to move faster-and we
plead for school education-that will
teach the coming generation to be
kind to animals and all birds.

A man with New England small

This same man was also a road con-

be eaten by the Wayside by the farm

Crops in Orchards.

Professor Stewart of the Pennsyl-
vania State college holds that from
the standpoint of the trees, the least
harmful are titled leguminous inter-
crops, such as peas and beans, on ac-
count of their favorable nitrogen and
moisture relations Grass is gener-
ally regarded as highly Objectionable,
drawing upon the water supply Of the
soil. Early sweet corn is probably the
best form in which to plant this
crop. Melons, cabbage, tomatoes and
early potatoes are used by many. But
we must feed both the csops and the
trees.

about 10 per cent better hatch. Sub

Farmers Union Movement.

II seems strange that southern
farmers who have always been
thought by many northern farmers, to
be unprogressive, are the first to take
up cooperative selling. The Farmers
union has among its members over
5000 cooperative concerns, big and
little, and they are getting more for
their produce than ever before. This
movement is spreading over the entire
country slowly but surely, and farm
ers of the north and west ought to
give it more thought than they do.

mine for $4,000. '.I knew they'd rope

man as he crossed his legs and tried
to appear very much at home.

Beware Of Cheap Bills.

an average of one hundred and forty
two thousand bacteria to the bill.
Twenty-one bills were examined, and
while Some were relatively clean, car
rying only trifle of fourteen thou
sand living things, others sWarmed to
the figure of five hundred and eighty
six thousand. And, strange to say, the
bacteria did not seem to swarm to
the $1,000 bills in preference to the
81 bills.
This shows that 1t is far healthier
to carry $1,000 bills about than it is
to tote 81 bills. Here is a valuable
financial hint.

Eating With Unwashed Hands.
In this lesson the Pharsees inquired
why the followers of Jesus were not
instructed along the lines of the Tai

wash their hands before eating, as a
religious duty.
Answering the Pharsees on these
points, Jesus said to them. You are

the Prophet, saying, This people seek
eth Me with their lips. but their heart
Is far from Me. But in vain do We

they neglected the Divine command

Mosaic Law commanded that father
and mother should be honOred and that
he that spoke evil of either should be

been changed by the Tamud and any
man might be free from his parents
by consecrating himself and substance
to God and religious uses. Having
done so. according to the Talmud he
was freed from all obligations to his
parents. Thus they had made Gods
direct commandment null and void.
This was the conflict between the
teachings of Jesus and of the Phari
sees. Both claimed holiness and strict
observance of the Divine Law. but
Jesus held to the Word of God and re-
