Anatically seals any puncture. A. ].

panyNhas recently been organized DOM

citizens for its manufacture. The
company will be known as the "Causey

approved, the manufactured product
will be placed on the market in ev-
cry section of the country. While in
Hattiesburg, the representatives of the
company will contract with a local
agent, who will have exclusive selling
rights. in this city.
Every one who have seen the dem
onstrations made believe that "Cau-
sey's Airstop" will do all that is
claimed for it and that it will prove
q great boon to owners of cars. A
demonstration was made Thursday
afternoon in front of The News office
by Meegrs. Craft and FORMER. A large
nail, larger than the air valve on the
auto tire, was driven nearly through
the tire, which had been partially fill
ed with the liquid. and when extract
ed the puncture was healed instantly,
not a particle of air escaping. 1t is
claimed that tire into which Causey's
Airstop has been poured will never
need another application, that the
first treatment will last until the tire
is worn out.

The program of the present conven-

the view of increasing knowledge OF
horse breeding and of either explod-

theories advanced on that subject.
Other subjects such as animal and
plant breeding in general and eugenics

THE SINGING IN GODS ACRE.

Out yonder in the moonlight, wherein
Gods Acre lies,
Go angels walking to and fro, singing
their lullabies;
Their radiant wings are folded and
their eyes are Bonded low.
AS they sing among the beds wherein
the flowers delight to grow;
sleep, oh, sleep!
The Shepherd guardeth His sheep!
Fast speedest the night away,
Soon cometh the glorious day;
Sleep, weary ones, while ye may
Sleep, oh, sleep!"
The flowers within Gods Acre see
that fair and wondrous sight,
And hear the angels singing to the
sleepers through the night;
And, 10! throughout the hours of day
those gentle flowers prolong
The music of the angels in that tender
slumber song:
'Sleep, oh, sleep!
The Shepherd loveth His sheep!
He that guardeth His flock the best
Hath folded them to His loving
breast
So, sleep We now and take your rest
Sleep, oh, sleep!"
From angel and from flower the years
have learned that soothing song,
And with its heavenly music speed the
days and nights along;
So, through all time, whose flight the
Shepherds vigils glorify,
Gods Acre slumbereth in the grace
of that sweet lullaby:
"Sleep, oh, sleep!
The Shepherd loyeth His sheep!
Fast speedeth the night away,
Soon cometh the glorious day;
Sleep, weary ones, while We may
Sleep. oh ,sleepl"

CHILDREN LOVE
SYRUP OF FIGS
It is cruel to force nauseatlng,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Lock back at your childhood days
Remember the dose" mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics,
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form OF
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little inside" are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup of Figs" Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that 1t never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, and that teaspoonful
given today saves sick child tomor
row.
Ask at the store for 50-cent bottle
of California Syrup of Figs" which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv.

GEESE REQUIRE FREE RANGE
Classed as Almost Non-Sitting Var
iety, They Are Good Layers
GosIines Grow Rapidly.

Geese need abundance of room, and,
In the case of breeding stock, access
to water. But there must be many
poultry keepers in rural districts who
have opportunities of breeding these
useful members of our stock yards,
and work like the present would be
incomplete did they find place in
1t.
The Toulous goose may almost be
classed as a non-sitting variety; they
are wonderfully good layers, though
rather late in starting, rarely in this
district (Southwaite, Cumberland) be-
fore the middle of February, and con-
tinue laying SO late in the season that
should they then show an inclination
to sit, which is generally slight, If at
all, 1t is not worth while risking eggs
with them. Thirty eggs in a season
Is only fair average for one healthy
goose to produce. Thirty goslings
reared from one goose in one season
is one record; 109 eggs all fertile from
three geese is another; but over-fed

METHODS OF BUDDING
Success of Operation Depends on
Proper Wrapping.
Special Care Should Be Exercised In
Wrapping to See That the Bud Is
Pressed Firmly Against Wood
of the Stock.
CBy E. ]. KRAUS.)

Two excellent methods for budding
walnut trees are given below:
The Hinge Bud-About one inch
above the surface of the soil make
a transverse incision about half an
inch long and similar one about
three-fourths of an inch above this.
Connect the two with a longitudinal
incision. This forms the completed
'I' cut on the stock. 1t is very de-
sirable to use extra care in making
these cuts. The ideal condition is TO
merely penetrate the bark just to the
wood, but not cut into it. The bud,
which is rectangular and of exactly
the same length as the distance be-
tween the two transverse cuts on the
stock, is removed from the bud stick
by first making two transverse cuts
Of the proper distance apart to give
the correct length to the bud, and then
connecting these by two longitudinal
cuts about half an inch apart. The
bud proper should be approximately
in the center of this piece The bud
is then easily removed by gently in
serting the back of the knife blade
under one corner Of the piece of bark
and prying up, when it will be found
that it will readily part from the bud

TART PASTE.

ingredients.
Two cupfuls of sifted pastry -four
One-half teaspoonful of salt.
One-half teaspoonful Of baking pow
der.
One-half cupful of lard and butter.
Method.
All ingredients must be cold. In
warm weather it is best to make the
paste the day before baking and chill
ing it in the ice box. In fact paste
can be kept number Of days and if
the family is small bake only as many
at time as will be needed. Sift all
dry ingredients together, then rub
shortening in with the finger tips until
-four resembles coarse meal; stir the
water in with a fork, then gather up
the paste and any dry particles that
remain into Toured hands, and press
together like putty. Paste made in
this way requires very little for roll
ing and is tender even after rolling a
second time.

CREDIT GIVEN TO THE WIFE
Good and Sufficient Reasons Why Mar
red Man Lives Longer Than
the Bachelor.

1t is a good thing for a man to have
a wife to look after his ingoings and
outcomings-to enforce regularity in
his mode of living-to see that he Is
clothed according to the requirements
Of the temperature, and takes his UNI
brella when there is likelihood of
showers, and gets good meals at stated
hours.
Jacques Bertillon, the French expert
on occupational mortality, has found
that low death rates occur particularly
in occupations in which the workman
is under more or less supervision as
regards not only health but also habits
of life, and in which he is surrounded
by influences tending to prevent dis.
sipation, and conducive to regular
hours and regular habits Bank clerks
and fiduciary employees who feel their
responsibilities are types of this. Ber-
tillon attributes much the same infla-
ence to marriage and family life. The
married man is supervised for his own
good, and, having added incentives to
self-restraint and to the caref of his
health, he has a lower mortality than
the bachelor,-Journal of the Ameri
can Medical Association.

VEGETABLES IN THE CELLAR
Roots Are Ninety Per Cent. Water, Ae-
counting for Their Storytelling
When Kept Warm.
(By NJ. r. FRAZER.)

There are two-one at the house,
the other at the barn, built on a side
hill, a favorable location.
Roots are 80 per cent water, &C
counting for their shriveling when
kept in a warm dry place. All mois-
ture eyaporates, therefore the roots
lose most of their fine feeding value,
but if ones cellar is moist and warm
then rot sets in.
Beet roots will stand little frosty
spell without harm. We kept cabbage,
carrots, etc, in the house cellar for
convenience, being well sand-packed
in large boxes, the windows left open.
The air is kept away as GOODNESS
prevents rot, sprouting and shriyeling.
We found them fresh, crisp and tasty
in the spring.
The other part of this cellar was
cemented, of course, and we spread
some fruit on the floor, yet no earthly
taste was noticeable.
Apples kept well packed in layers,
| some distance apart and sand covered,
Those in boxes were elevated trifie
on bricks. One season We packed
apples in a barrel with oats between
the layers and those proved a success,
also.
AS cabbage needs much water, a
supply was sprinkled over them, keep.
ing them green, fresh and crisp.
The roots for our stock were uni
formly good, handy to feed.
Our barn cellar was on a side-hill
excavation into the high bank. 1t had
cement wall several feet high and a
nice driveway on the upper side. The
roots were very easily unloaded by a
chute through a convenient, removable
window, which furnished light as well
One season we kept a quantity Of
roots and apples in a pit in the side
hill-about three feet deep. We spread
straw on the bottom, filled the pit tc
the top and covered all with gooC
straw with dirt heaped over that, ant

Toulous goslings grow bone very

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN' HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up Mixture of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lnstre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get large bottle of this famous
old recipe for about so cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy. ADV
