MAKING MAPLE SUGAR,
By Virginia Vale. )

1E3y " lTSln1d& & SllS.
 Once upon 9 time Rogers mother said: Here comes the postrnan. Will you go and get the mail ?''
 As Roger opened the door the post man said: Hello, it's 8 letter for you this time.''
 Roger could hardly wait until he got hold of the letter and saw it was real ly for him. He opened it and cried out to his mother, ..It' s from grand father in Vermond, mother, and he wants me to come up for a few days and see them. They are going to get the maple syrup and sugar ready. Can go.?'' he asked all in one breath.
 Yes. I think SOL, his mother an swered and off he ran to see what he wanted to take with him. The next day after he arrived at grandfather's he woke bright and e1rly ready to join the others in the Dig team that stood outside ready to take them to the woods; where they were to get the maple sap. This was the first time he had ever seen the tree tapped and it was great fun to watch the men go from tree to tree and see the sap flow out in the big pails.
 Then grandfather showed him how they boiled the sap until it looked
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-05-01

like the sweet brown syrup he had at home and then how it was made into big luscious looking maple sugar cakes.
 He gave Roger some sap and told him he could see just how the men did and ouId make some little cakes of sugar to take home Roger was lousy all day and had a great many cakes made to take home for he want ed to take cake home to all his friends and lots to father and moth CT.
 Of course he had to keep tasting it all day and when it was time to go home. he didn' feel very hungry and his head ached.
 When grandma saw that he look ed white and tired and didn't want
 my supper she knew right away what was the matter and told Roger that he better go right up to bed. The next day he felt all right and you may be sure when he went to the woods he didn't eat maple sugar all day. He had a fine visit and was sorry when he had to go back home. Grandfather told him he could come up and help the next year and every one home thought the maple sugar the best they had ever eaten.

She accepted me. It is a. week to the wedding day. have sjiist made the startling discovery that she has an unfortunate mother We love each other but my folks are making strenuous efforts to break off the mar riage I could never endure it.

 You should do more than a little considering Of both sides if you would affect 8 change for the better. Have candid little talks with your husband. Ask him seriously what attraction he could find to waste precious hours at midnight, leaving You alone let him know that your heart is going out to him; that he must turn over a, new leaf.

POULTRY RAISING
U. S. DEPT. AGRICULTURE

The southern farmer, by virtue
of his location and climate, is
splendidly situated for the produc-
ton of fowls and eggs. The mild
winters and early springs make the
production of eggs an easy matter
when prices are high.
On many farms throughout the
country the money derived from
the sale of poultry and eggs buys
the groceries and clothing for the
entire family. Every southern
farmer can do as well, and should
aim to keep at least so hens for
laying purposes and home con-
sumption. Select some of the
American breeds, such as the Ply
mouth Rocks, Wyandottes, or the
Rhode Island Reds. The 0rping-
tons are also a good general pur-
pose breed.
On almost any farm there can
be fitted up at very little cost, a
poultry house that will ans Wer all
the purposes of more expensive
buildings for keeping poultry. The
essentials to success in housing are
fresh air, sunshine, a dry floor, and
a building that is free from drafts.
Poultry raising should be a
profitable feature of the work on
every Southern farm.

MAkE IT A LIQUORLESS
CHRISTMAS

Why not have a liquorless
Christmas this year?
Right now, when everybody is
preaching Profitable Farming"
and while there is so much agita-
ton in favor of various move
ments for greater efficiency along
all lines of human endeayor, and
while all of us can see and feel the
need of greater economy-sureB
it is a good and suspicious time to
inaugurate a movement for a
Liquorless Christmas. .
The use of whiskey has never
proved of any benefit to mankind;
but on the contrary it is respon
sible for more poverty, ignorance,
illiteracy, disease, and lack of
efficien accomplishment, than any
other one cause that confronts
the American people.
We people of the South, especi-
ally, need to invest our dollars IN
something more substantial and
profitable.
A man had better take his mon
ey and throw it into the river than
buy whiskey with it, for if he
throws his money into the river
he has lost only his money, while
if he buys whiskey and drinks it
he has not only thrown his money
away for something that is of no
value to him but is a positive det-
riment to him, ply sically.
Let's have a "Liquorless Christ
mas"-for the sake of the wife
and children who need the money
for better things, for the sake of
the boys and young men who need
a better example from the older
men, and certainly from their
fathers; and at least out of de-
cent respect to the Founder of the
Christian religion whose birth is
celebrated. If there is one time
of all the year more than another
when a man ought to be free
from dissipation and immortality
that time is Christmas.

That Arkansas can diversity

the production of cotton is not to
be denied. The success of many

that it also results in improvement
