ApoRN rns COUNTRY HOME.


Too many farmers would rather
have their path from the kitchen or
front door Of the house and the barn
between two rows Of corn than to see
a nice blueg. ass lawn, nice shaded
rrees, shrubs, roses and other beauti-
full flowers, nicely arranged about
the house. They think il is for the
good Of the families that they utilize
every foot Of ground possible for the
production Of corn and other grain
bat surely they are therein mistaken
Il Is no wonder that the young folk.
on such farms get tired Of the RI al
nonotony and are off to tho city. The
ornamentation Of country homes is
nearly il not quite important as the
pro1uc,ion of the best fruits and
vegetables.
What is there that could be more
facinatina to children than an abuu-
dance Of good fruit aud beautiful
tlowerag 1t teaches them to OBJ erve
nature, and when they once lean to
understand more about the beautifal
work Of nature they cannot be driven
from their beautiful home in the
country Never mind about the
location, for it matters not where
you live or what may be the lay Of
You grounds, you can make it beau
tlful and interesting by planting The
ri. ht kinds Of fruits, vegetables and
flowers in the right way and attend
ing to them properly. Nov, don I
say or think that it is too muel work,
Tor without missing the time you can
make wonde fol improvement if
YOU only SET your bead 10 it.
One well-known writer has the
following to say on this subject. at
is really pity to see how 'be young
men are ssarming to the cities for
employment when they could 20 so
much better by staying on the farm
If they nnlY knew it. When say
hat the average farm boy leaves
home ecause it is too monotonoas !
thiuk can prove the eorrectne-,
thereof with ths statement that tLeie
is notone youne man leayeswhoa fruit
iarm eitb beautiful surroundings e.
where there are ten cave the average
grain farm where fruits and ornamen
taiion ire overlooked.
That persistent struggle for th,
almi. hty dollar is supposed to b.
for the good Of your family, but am
sure you will succeed much better in
the conteatinsnt and health of your
family by changing your pla Is in
the manner indicated above."-

FRIDAY. Feb. IA, 1918.
MAKE THE cANNHRY A SUCCESS.

Last week we made known through
our colamns that two snterprising
citizens from Hartford County,
Messrs. w. w. Finney and John
Archer, had been here and rented
the cannery in this town conditional
upon their being able to get enough
acreage planted in tomatoes by our
farmers. They also made known
that they would pay the tarmer the
sum of twenty-five cents per bushel
for tomatoes.
From this il is plain that the only
thing necessary for the opening and
operating the cannery is for the
farmers to plant tomatoes. There
ought not be any trouble for our
farmers to plant enough tomatoes to
justify these people in starting the
enterprise. The opening up of the
cannery means much to the farmers
of'this county as well as to the coun-
ty itself. There certainly ought to
be enough hive and active farmers in
this county to meet the requirements
Of these gentlemen when the farmers
are put to no expense, the only outlay
being little energy and lsbor. The
way to build your county up is to
bring business here aud not by turn
ing down the substantial offers made
to help us by outsiders. Besides
starting up this enterprise the firm
ers have an opportunity to make
some money and diversity their
crops. Our chief remunerative crop
here is tobacco. The raising OF to-
matoes can in no way interfere with
the raising of tobacco but affol DIS our
farmers a double opportunity to
make their farms pay The time
and labor consumed in raising toma-
toes will amount to mere trihe
when the live farmer takes into con-
sideration the great benefit the coun-
ty deri ses from the opening If the
cannery, the help to his farm by the
Investigation Of crops and the re-
Enumeration he gets therefrom. The
opening of the cannery s'.ou,d be
encouraged and stimulated by every
farmer in the county, especially those
within ten miles Of this town.
Mr.. Vernon Padgett, one Of ouI
progressive young men, has taken
hold of the proposition in the right
way and is endeavoring TO awaken a
detp interest in the farmers in the
raising If tomatoes for the cannery.
Every farmer should become inter
ested in the proposition and notify
Mr.. Padgett at once that they intend
raising tomatoes and how many
acres they propose lanting. lie
will be glad to talk to any farmer in
terested in the proposition. We
have the opening of the caHnery in
our grasp now farmers don't let it
get away from us.
