New York.-A very. persistent deVll
vhisnered into the ear OF nine-year-
old Charles Motif as he left MS nome
at No. IS Catherine street to play IN
the street the other afternoon.
Remember, his mother had said,
.'the devil gets boys who are had.
You mustn't go out of the neighbor-

For Charles's principal income and

neWsdealer on the corner gave MN
for trips to a news company.
Though Charles had promised Meth.

was Saturday and that the boy
wouldn't be paid for his weeks work
unless he finished it, and that it would
be too bad to lose a whole weeks pay

Charles, tempted, fell. He trotted

that devil whispered again. 1t would
be nice to go out on Brooklyn bridge

BOIL WEEvIL INTHE SOUTH
Cotton is Greatest Money Crop in
World, and Money Realized From
1t Should Beasaved.

The boil WeeVis1h- 81 soon cover the
south. This will give many agri-
cultural writers and speakers an
opportunity to write and speak as
they did when cotton was four cents.
Many will pitch into the cotton farm
ers generally and tell us we ought to
diversity, that our lands are just right
for truck farming, and that we can
make a fortune growing truck. They
will tell us about farmers in Texas
and elsewhere who are making $500
per acre growing truck and that We
can do equally we'll
Now, I have preached Investigation
for ten years, but have just this to
say concerning the growing OF
truck for the market by the aver
age farmer: 1t isa gamble, and you
will win Just enough to make Xousput
up all you have and lose. My advice
is supply your family and home mar
of raising truck for northern cities.
The first step in the Investigation
that I advocate is to diversity from
bad to good crops, from scab to good
stock; from one-horse ploWs to two
and three-horse plows; from the i'm
plements now used on the majority of
our farms to the most improved labor
saving farm implements.
The second step that I advocate is
to produce upon your farm all that is
required for your family and for your
stock on the farm.
The third step that I advocate is to
| have plenty of good pasture; have a
| good meadow; cut and cure plenty OF
pea vine and other hays. Fill the corn
field full of cowpeas and plant fields
of peas peanuts and sweet potatoes
When the corn is gathered in the fall
you can turn your hogs, cattle, horses
and mules into the fields and BIZ
sure that all will be rolling fat By
| winter
The fourth step that I advocate i:
to increase the number of good brood
mayes, and milk cows, and beef cat
tie, and hogs, and poultry.
The up-to-date farmer always sell
some surplus farm produce. Ever,
time he goes to town he carries som
vegetables, fruits, butter, eggs 0
poultry The farmer who drives a.
empty wagon to town and return
with it loaded with foods that he ough
to produce on his own farm lives har
at home and wears one suspender an
crownless hat.
Cotton is the greatest money Gro
in the world and enough of the odd
and ends should be sold by ever
farmre to pay the running expense
of the farm SO that the cotton none
may be placed in the bank.

there. When I let go blew up.
If Charles didn't blow up, he GER
tainly did go up. His foot came ID
contact with the third rail and sparks
flew from his school shoes, OF winch
his mother had told him to be care
full.
'Me back and me legs felt like
something was going trough EN-,
says Charles. He went into the arr
shrieking with pain But he only rose
| two feet: then he came down sitting
between the rails A moment after

ter of the track, rubbing himself,
| while a crowd Of hOmeWard bound
Brooklynites was standing on the
promenade shouting advice. Two prac-
tical men showed forward ano
stretched their hands down to
| Charles. First he passed up his bundle
of papers, then he consented to be
lifted out.

devils victim to the police room a
i the Manhattan tower. DR.. Orr arrived
In an ambulance from the Hudson
street hospital and the boy wa

DR.. Orr and the police thought it wa
amazing that Charles had not Deel
killed outright. They told the boy d
could go home.
Charles delivered the papers intac
to the newsman at Catherine an
South streets and asked for his
cents. He had resolved to end fortf
with all connection with the devil. Il
was told he would be paid later. The

He said nothing, but eventually tn
