Temper

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
To have an uncomfortable temper Is a
great misfortune. In fact. 1t is a fearful
thing. 1t has blighted and DESTROYED the
lives of multitudes. Words spoken in heat
of passion have estranged friends and
separated families. Worse STILL bad
temper has made men do things and COM
NIT crimes that they would give the world
If it was theirs to recall. Thoughtful and
observant persons have noticed that as
the facilities decay the aged deprecate a
condition with which they have not
the force to contend This being so,
Is 1t not the part of wisdom when young
this hurtful part of our natures to fight
it? Sensitive people are always at a great
disadvantage.
While others would be glad to be on
friendly terms with them, while in their
presence, they feel that there is a con-
stant fear of giving offense Now, or the
other hand, you take man, or woman,
with smooth and even temper ana
pleasing manners people of all walks In
life meet them with a personal kindness.

Nineteen years ago I heard Mrs
Mary Ellen Lease tell in q speech In
Birmingham that the farms of Kan

But now Kansas is prospering TO beat
the band, and many of her farmers go
around in automobiles since alfalfa has
been raised extensively there.
Besides alfalfa, Alabama can grow
peas and soy beans, which. next to al
falfa are considered the finest forage
plants in the world. We have hairy
vetch and English vetch, too. both of
which make excellent hay which is cas-
lily cured. Besides like peas, soy beans
and alfalfa, they improve the land
greatly. Then there are Johnson grass
(Which is at home on stock farm) and
a dozen kinds of millets--and several
varieties of sorghum. besides kaffir
corn and mills maize and teosinte. The
mangel or field beet grows fine. 1t
