Mrs. A. H. Sayers Sells and
Distributes the Wares of a
SightleSS BroOmmaker.

1t isn't often that blind broom
maker can boast of an automobile So
licitation, delivery and collection sys-
tenn but James Baugh, blind from birth,
who makes brooms at his home. 76 -
Carroll street. has found this rare COM
bination for the sale, delivery and col
lection of his wares in Mrs \. II. Say
ers of Il West Pine street, and her
machine.
Baugh in a way is a ward Of the AS
. sociated Charities, for it was the asso-
citation that set him up as a broom
manufacturer. Mrs Savers is an en-
thusiastic volunteer worker for the As
sociated Charities. So it remained only
for Mrs. Sayers to learn of Baugh's sit
uation to inaugurate the automobile
delivery.
Baugh had reasoned in this wise with
the authorities at the office of the As
sociated Charities:
Il can make brooms and make good
brooms, but | can't sell them, because
l have no one to push the sale for me,
only my wife, who must stay home with
my two children,

posal Of work of the association. heard
Raugh's complaint she instantly solved
his problem for him.
Il can sell the brooms," she said
Il can take orders among my friends,
deliver the brooms In the machine and
collect for them"
However, Baugh is but one Of the
cases that daily confront the associa-
ton. It's work could be more efficient
ly done if there We're more automobiles
at the beck of its officials, or money to
take care of the Baughs and other OF
Atlanta, who by. incidental assistance
could become supporting.

According to the AID Men, it viii be the

The Good Cheer bands of fair renown,
Who boost home trade and boom the town.
Who brighten. build and beautify
Till all Is pleasing to the eye
Who sound their battlecry, Improve
They are the lads who make things move.
The benefactors of the land.
Then come and join the Good Cheer band.
or old the brave knight fought and strove
And cleaned with hardware like stove.
He rode to seek the Holy Grail
Or lift some maiden out of jail.
From Judahs hills to chase the hordes
That Haunted moons and crooked swords.
And through his whlskers stoutly swore
To drown the dragon in Its gore.
The modern knight swears softer oaths
And does not dress In sheet iron clothes,
And yet he has as high intent
In seeking civic betterment,
In winning for his town success,
Prosperity and happiness.
And spreading sunshine through the land,
A member of the Good Cheer band.
Come Join the boosting brotherhood.
A soldier of the common good;
Become volunteer recruit
And do not send a substitute.
In the Commercial club enlist
And be n hustlng optimist.
Just smile, smile, smile. and lend hand
For progress and the Good Cheer band.

was, he did not wish II to end. He took
no thought OF time, forgetting that he
was waiting for a train to take him to
Lillian.
She spoke no word. nor did he wish
her to speak. His senses seemed to be-
come gradually benumbed. There was
n mystical mingling Of chat, music
and laughter, besides the dripping Of
Il fountain In the center Of lawn be-
fore the hotel. Then the sounds all
melted away together.
Suddenly he was awakened as from a
dream by clock striking. He was still
sitting in the dark corner, and his COM
panion was not with him. He looked
up and down the piazza, but she was
not to be seen. Had he fallen asleep
and dreamed? No; 1t was all too real.
Then he heard train approach the
station and knew that he had not time
to reach 1t before It should start on.
Hurrying to the hotel office, he in
quired the hour Of leaving for the next
train and was shocked to hear that he
could not get away from the place till
morning.
Who was this girl who had kept him
away from his beloved. lying on a sick
bed and doubtless listening every mo.

How could he have been so affected by
her presence as to forget the passing
time? There was nothing now for him
This he did, but not to sleep.

Green Asparagus and White.

l grow green asparagus because there
is a steady and increasing demand for
large, choice green grass and be-
cause it sells for higher price than
white asparagus. says a correspondent
of Rural New Yorker. In growing
green asparagus | differ from other
growers who grow white asparagus,
claiming they cut more punches per
acre. In some cases this is probably
true. However. the higher price paid
for green asparagus more than makes
up for difference in yield.

cow LIKE A BOILER.
You've Got to Keep Up Good Head Of
Steam il You Want Results

Hoard's Dairyman quotes in the
manner below the statement OF an
Australian mechanical engineer who
had taken up dairying and says the
engineer uttered one Of the most pro-
found truths connected with dairy
farming:
Having been trained as a mecham-
cal engineer, ii occurred to be one day
during n dry spell that n COW should
be treated like a steam boiler. knew
how easy it was to keep good head
of steam on once ii was ut the right
pressure and how difficult ii was to get
it up once il had been allowed TO fail
away. The same plan. | found. held
good with COW. AS long rs she was
maintained in good condition it was
relatively easy TO keep her fully nour-
ished. Once she was allowed to 90
back ii was difficult 10 get her in good
condition again
If only We could get the dairy farm
ers of this country to see the great
and everything force of that principle
it would be worth millions of dollars
to them. But they do not see it, If
feed is high the COW gets less. even IL
dairy products are correspondingly
high. They see only one side of the
question.

WHY NOT CARRY INSURANCE
AGAINST FAILURE OF CR0PS7
II May Be Had Without Money Pay
mont by Rotation Of Crops and Use
Of Stock In Proper Farming.

w. G. Palmer Of North Dakota has
a unique way Of expressing himself
says Kansas Farmer, which calls this
characteristic: "To insure against fire,
| hail or storms Is a common practice.
Why not insure against crop failure?
1t comes more often than fire. 1t comes
more certainly than hail or storms, and
it can be insured against as effectively.
The beauty of this kind of insur-
ance is that 1t can be had without pay
ing for it. In fact, the farmer will be
paid for making this crop insurance,
will be paid by securing bigger crops
in the good crop year. This crop insur-
ance is procured through rotation Of
crops and stock. Rotation Of crops
brings In cultivated crops, as corn and
and peas; grasses, as timothy, bronze
grass, wheat grassland stock to con-
vert these into higher priced products,
as beef, butter, pork or eggs, and ma
nure.
1.-The cultivation given corn or pota-
toes kills weeds, cures plant diseases
and saves moisture. The legumes and
grasses crowd weeds, starve plant dis
eases and add humus. The legumes
also add nitrogen.
'While the cultivated crops. the leg
umes and the grasses are preparing
the land for grain they make crops
worth fully as much as an ordinary
grain crop. And, again, II these crops
are fed to live stock the profit from
them can be increased several fold.
1.-The grain crop that is grown In ro-
tation with cultivated crops, legumes
and grasses is greatly increased in the
good crop years and is insured for the
poor crop years.
This kind of insurance not only In
cures a crop in an erratic season, but
il insures good business where ii would
otherwise be greatly slowed up on ac-
count of the crop failure"
