stock and the Academy. l like to think of my two years and a half at the Academy, and sometimes when my brother and 1 are together, we go over again the times when were together there,-the baseball games we played, the dances at North and East Woodstock. trips to Webster with Spenie Child, Sterling Child and his trombone solos, and a hundred other things tha: went to make up our good times there We do think also at times of the evening study hours with Mr. Hall and l think We appreciate now, and indeed we have ap precialed ever since we no longer had the oppor rtunity of using 1t, MT. Halls helpful and interested guidance in the things that were necessary to prepare us for college and for lfe. 1 sometimes wonder whether Mr. Hall has any idea of the influence that he has upon the boys who are with him and of their sincere appreciation ot hls m terest when they come to realiz ation of 1t.
 What have been doing this past yearP The first part of the year spent at Wake field in my fathers bank, the Farmers National, and at Gregory in the First Ma. tional Bank In February of this year l came to Carthage, where l intend to make my home. Carthage IS a town of about TOO people in the central part of eastern South Dakota, ln Miner County to be more exact It is located in splendid farming country and from the farms the town draws it's main business. Like many of the middle western towns it IS pro. gressive and enlerpuslng little town With a first rate electric fighting plant, good wa ter systam-we draw our water from arte- sian wells-fne sewer system, good schools, and best of all very nice class of enter. prislng and harmonious citizens. Perhaps due allowance should be made for the fact that am now Carthagenisn and possi. bly fer that reason little biased and yet l think that all of you would agree with me that Carthage is very pleasant little town if you knew il as well as l do.
 am in the State Bank of Carthage and have been busy enough since came here to keep out of mischief and to keep me in good humour, for think that work IS as necessary to happiness as any other one thing. Another thing which has sd- ded to our good humour here is the fact that we have every prospect of an excellent crop this year. We have been very for tunate with our rains and have had no serious hail, hot wind, or other crop uou- hles. Unless some entirely unexpected calamity comes we snail have forty bushels to the acre of oats, forty bushels to the acre of barley and eighteen bushels to the acre of wheat. Our corn crop, though backward looks very good and we have hopes of a fine crop of corn.
 With all best wishes to the "Gleaner' and with warm greeting to those os my friends who read il,
 Very sincerely.

Green Feeds Year Around.

There is nothing better than well cured clover rowen or second growth clover hay, writes J. F. Schureman. United States department of agricul ture. This should be cut up fine and steamed Clover is not only highly nitrogenous, but rich in lime, a sub stance required by the hens for pro- viding shells for the eggs.
 Aside from the alfalfa there is no other food that can take the place oi clover. By allowing a ration of scala ed clover to hens they will keep in bet ter laying condition and the produc. ton of eggs will be increased Where clover hay cannot be secured, bran is a very good substitute. though not so rich in mineral matter.
 Vegetable food should be supplied the year around. such as cabbage, po- tatoes, beets and turnips.

A Trio of Letters from the South and

 A Trio of Letters from the South and
 West
 The following letters were written for and published in the 1912 Nood stock Academy Cleaner, and coming from the South, Northwest, and West, are of such interest that we reprint them:
 Eastford, Conn. Dear Cleaner,
 There are many interesting things that might be mentioned about life and living in the "sunny South.n Sunny 1t IS when you are on the south side of the house. but step across the hall and the north side seems like the frigid zone in comparison.
 March and April were the most beauti- ful months in the region of spartanburg' s. C., where I taught. April. like our June, is the time of roses and magnoliss and flowers in abundance. The warm weather comes on with rush, there are really but two seasons, winter and sum- mer. You can "spring out" as they say, in muslin dresses directly from your winter suit. The hot weather begins in May usually, and continues without many drops ln temperature until the last of September
 l remember how eagerly l looked for the first cotton fields. in North Carolina, and how pretty hey were, that October morning, all covered with the white balls of cotton. The corn fields maoe me homesick. in that sec. ion the corn stalks are not cut down, but the negroes go through ana pick the corn and strip of the leaves, N hich they bind for fodder. The stalks are left standing all winter and when part of them are broken by the winds the il Ids have very mourninl and forsaken look.
 The scenery below Washington is very different from New England. There are no stone. walls and but few fences tper- haps a garden will be fenced i'm and 8 very little grass except where it is eulti- vated The soil Is a yellowish- red and doesn't look rich enough to grow any thing, but fne cotton crops are raised.
 The farm houses become more scatter ed and many little negro cabins are everyw here, these are usually of one or two rooms and are set up on stilts, or cor ner posts. None of the houses have eel- lars and oue can look all under the house, where sometimes the chickens are kept All the houses are built with hall through the center and many of the old plantation houses have beautiful porches with large pillars in front. The hangs- low seems to be great tavorite with the modern builders but l liked the old houses best,
 The thing that impressed me Inc most, al first, was the great number of mules and negroes. They were everywhere. A ioag. fap-eared mule with darkey rid ing in most dilapidsted wagon behind him was very amusing slght. You know the saying that ''tsod made the mule and then had 10 make negro to drive him." but they are both very useful in the South where 1t is too hot for & white man sno horse 10 do the farm work.
 One year l came home by boat from t,harlasian to New York, which Is a most delight trip, that wish all my friends mig ht take some time.
 ours very cordially,
 S. FLORENCE WARREN.

Attention to Horseshoes.

Keep the horseshoes we'll frightened on the hoofs now, as this is the time of year they are most frequently lost by being loosened in the mud or snow or because of long usage.
