Darkness came on long before we

where the fields were covered with
only light sprinkling of snow.
Then there was the long ride thru
the flat Georgia pine region. This
seems like a country that God in
tended to wait some thousands Of years
before il becomes a dwelling place
for man. The good pine timber has
been removed, and only blackened
stumps remain, planted in the ash
like sand. In some places are small
pines which are being gashed to ex-
tract the turpentine.
Georgia Is one of the sad states
that stand at the foot OF the line.

that prevented the abolition OF sla-

great civil war. Georgia is still the

ROYALTY VISITS US

The Duke and Duchess of Con-
naught and their daughter, Princess
Patricia, arrived in New York from
Ottawa, Canada, Monday. The Duke
is Governor General of the Dominion
and he is paying a short visit to for
mer Ambassador to England, Mr..
Whitelaw Reid. Much comment has
arisen in Washington owing to the
fact that the Duke was not to visit
that city and call upon the President.
IL is said to be unheard of that a
Royal parsonage should fail to call
upon the President, and it is re-
ported that great many people got
their feelings much hurt through SYM
pathy for President Taft. But II
seems now that the President did
not mind II at all and never would
have thought of questioning the
Dukes right to go to New York or
anywhere else without making him
visit. Later, however, 1t is reported
that the Duke will visit Washington

Fly Repeller for Cows.

The Kansas Experiment station uses
this preparation to keep flies off COWS:
Take 2 bars of common laundry soap
and dissolve in warm water. To this
add ~ pounds of resin, crushed fine,
or pulverized, u pint Of fish oil and
water enough to make 3 gallons. When
ready to use add u pint Of kerosene
oil. Apply with brush or spray pump
about three times a week until the
hair becomes coated with resin when
a fewer number of applications will
be sufficient. The use of this will be
better than fighting the cows while
they fight the flies and it has the ad
ditional merit of being cheap.

like II better than any slops or spe-
cials feeds you can prepare for them
1t should be sown by itself, and the
hog raiser who has a patch now grow
ing considers himself fortunate.
Last year | sowed an old orchard
with rape late in April, and was sur
prised to see 1t renew itself two or
three times during the summer in spite
of the dry season. l kept the hogs
out Of It till it was high enough to
hide a rabbit, and they were unable
to keep 1t down. If the hogs are full
grown, it is good policy to keep them
out Of the rape patch till it is a foot
in height. In case they eat It down
the hogs should be taken out of the
field till the rape gets another
growth.
Cowpeas Sown at this time In the
year should furnish very good late
pasture for the hogs Peas are not of
so very much value to the hog till the
pods are formed, and are beginning
to ripen Just a little. Then they are
equal to any ration that has ever been
devised. Rape sown at this time in the
year will come on in plenty of time to
make a splendid fall pasture for the
hogs. Il will serve to get them in the
best possible condition for the heavy
corn feeding that comes a little later
in the year.
1t is not too late yet for the north
ern farmer to plant pumpkins to be
used as hog feed in the fall This is a
feed that can be raised at very
little cost, and yet will prove very
valuable in the autumn, especially
when pastures are short. ! always
plant a large number of pumpkins in
the corn fields at the time when the
corn is laid by"
Follow up this last cultivation by
planting a few hundred pumpkins in
hills, and you will have a good many

OF the many ways in which the mid
dle-aged woman may vary the effect
OF her afternoon gowns none is sim
pier than the use of a collar and cuffs
of white wolfe edged with scalloping
and embroidery in floral design. An.
other change may be the frock set Of
white chiffon with border of black
malines, and still another is the one Of
black net hemstitched with silver
thread. Some of these collars are so
long in front that they terminate only
at the waist line, where they cross in
surplice effect and are tucked away
under the girdle. An excellent model
of this sort is of light blue lawn en-

Now, it is not well to force them
prematurely into egg production, but
It is best to get them in condition so
that they will begin to lay during the

A WINNING START
A Perfectly Digested Breakfast Makes
Nerve Force for the Day.

Everything goes wrong il the break
fast lies in your stomach like a mud
pie. What you eat does harm if you
can't digest tit turns to poison.
A bright lady teacher found this to
be true, even Of an ordinary light
breakfast of eggs and toast She
says.
1.-TWO years agoI contracted a very
annoying form of indigestion. My stom-
ach was in such condition that SIM
pie breakfast of fruit, toast and egg
gave me great distress.
Il was slow to believe that trouble
could come from such a simple diet,
but finally had to give 1t up, and found
a great change upon a cup of hot
Postum and Grape-Nuts with cream,
for my morning meal. For more than
a year l have held to this course and
have not suffered except when injudi-
ciously varying my diet.
Il have been teacher for several
years and find that my easily digest
ed breakfast means a saving of nerv-
GUS force for the entire day. My gain
of ten pounds IN weight also causes
me to want to testify to the value of
Grape-Nuts.
