her arrival Lucy had never realized how
they had fallen into the habit OF staying
az nome, of neglecting their social op-
portunities, ot keeping to a humdrum
way OF life, with little diversion. A few
plans were made to entertain Millicent,
and were carried out; but the effort on
Lucy's part was obvious and after

in town gave for her, ana a dinner at
which Lucy presided severely clad in
tailor-made shirt waist and black skirt.

Horaces widowed sister.
When Lucy first clapped eyes on her.
she set her down in her mind as a wom-

that they were not going to be congenisl.

came gradually to realize that these
lunches were, instead Of necessary func-

nature of festivities, from which they
brought echoes. anecdotes and laughter

Dinner Party Plans Open Lucy's
Eyes.
So matters stood when one night they
were discussing a proposed dinner party
before her. There was not the least in
tention to slight Lucy; but no one
thought OF asking her. She seemed out
of everything by tacit consent, her own
included. Whether IL was a look in her
eyes at something said, or whether a
divine inspiration came to Millicent as
they talked, at any rate. she suddenly
checked herself, and said impulsively to
Lucy
But. Lucy. perhaps you could be per-
suaded to come, too?'
To their astonishment Lucy burst in
to tears Both were dumfounded, and
Horaces dismay took the form of in

her sister-in-law in her arms.

Long time ago. the old men among IN.
Indians who lived on the wide plains,
where the sky comes down like a bowl
over the earth. used to ask the little boys
this question whenever they began to
boast about what they could do as hunt
ers or horsemen:
Tell me. youngster. are you a chicken
hawk or an eagle?" Then tn little boy
would say:

boy" But because that boy could see a
story in the eyes of the old man, he would
ask:
why do you think am either a chick
en- hawk or an eagle?"
''I will tell you the story about how the
hawk got his thin legs" the old man
would say, "and then you will know why.
II was this way:
animals held their councils together. ana
they could all talk together, each one
among them wanted TO be known as a
great hunter. Because the hawk could
fly high and far. every one thought that
he ought to be a good hunter, but the
truth was that he couldn't hunt very
well.
Just because he wasn't a good hunter
didn't keep the hawk from boasting. He

hunter he was that after awhile his
family told him that he had better go
out and bring in some meat for some of
the hungry young ones.
So the hawk went away to hunt When
he had gone far up into the sky to see
what he could see, the hawk met the
eagle. and the first thing he said to the
eagle was:

Bread Kept from Driving.

Cutting the bread at the table is an
economy in the home, as the practice
saves many slices from becoming stale.
A breadboard to be used on the table
may be purchased or made. The loaf is
placed on It, with bread knife. Another
economical way to prevent the loaf from
drying is to cut IT in halves at first, and
then cut as many slices as may be needed
from one half, or an equal number from
each half, pressing the halves together
when putting the loaf away in the bread

USING THE RAz0R-BACK AS A
 SUBSTITUTE FOR COTTON
(By W. R. Wheelock, Arkansas
 Experiment Station

Now that circumstances have convinced everyone of the need of growing more livestock on ARKANSAS farms the next question is where to get the breeding stock with which to be- gin to produce the type of stock that the market demands. In the case of pork production which affords the opportunity for most immediate returns, the problem will be largely solved if the far mer will make intelligent use of what he already has. While a purebred herd would in smany instances be desirable yet any l farmer can make good money with common stock sows even azor-backs-if he will mate them to d good pure bred boar. The offspring from such breeding will in a large degree possess the type and quality of the boar, the chief requirements of the-- SOW being size, maturity, prolificacy and good mothering qualities. The more improved blood the SOW possesses the better the off, spring will be so long as the pure bred boar is used. It is only when a grade boar and grade SOW are mated that the old na- tive type in any large degree as- serts itself and we get a cull lot.
 While 1t would be impossible in any reasonable time to stock the farms of the state with sows of good breeding, it would be a comparatively easy matter to bring enough good boars into every county in the next few months so that if they were used exclusively for the next two or three years the old native type of hogs would almost disappear. Although this might work a grievance on those who cherish a fondness for the type the fact remains that it would add hun- dreds of thousands of dollars to the annual state income from the pork growing industry and would
