The fire was burning brightly and
the room was warm when the sisters
came into the kitchen. then stopped and

where the dresses were laughing for
JOY.

Longnose was hiding behind blind

felt repaid for all his work.
He was late getting home. and just as
he was entering his room some one

Longnose turned, and there were his
brother goblins running toward him.
I'VE are sorry we called you names,

All the goblins said they would be
glad to help, and so Longnose went
back to live with them. and the next

they went to plant 1t they found the
poblins had done all the work.

pies Fertilizer Company. was, origin
ally, a Wilcox county man, AMI has
studied agriculture practically all his
life He has been one of the best
known and most extensive of south
east Alabama's scientific and practi-
cal farmers for years, and has had the
most practical and most valuable ex-
perience o5tainable.
It was only last year that, in con-
Quoting a personal experiment Of his
own in raising cotton which went two
bales to the acre when Mr.. Stuart had
properly prepared the soil, that the
popular Live Hickory cotton fertilizer
resulted, which has proved wonder
and constant delight to cotton men
who have since been privileged to
use it.
Mr.. Stuart who rmly believes in
Baldwin county's future as one OF the
finest farming sections anywhere, also
finds time to encourage the stock rails
ing business. which. he believes, will
rival the farming interests of the sec
ton in time.
This year he has raised six car loads
OF hogs for shipping. and he considers
the reed cane which grows near the
Tensaw river to be the finest kind of
cattle range.
Fine Demonstration Farm.
Mr.. Stuart has every chance to dem
onstrate to the world just what his
fertilizers will do, on his fine 160-acre
farm, which is located five miles west
of Bay Minette. Every acre is in
high state of cultivation; the farm is
fenced and cross-fenced and well wa
tered: the public road runs directly
through it, with so acres on either
side; there is a good school house To-
Gated there; Is different varieties of
