THE TRACTOR ON THE
FARM BEFORE DAWN

However, as useful as the trac
tor is destined to become, it is
doubtless too much to expect that
1t will perform all the functions
described in the following bright
verses written by George Fitch,
which originally appeared i'm the
Peoria, ILL.,, Transcript, of which he
was then editor Mr.. Fitch died
a few weeks ago:
The Tractor on the farm arose
Before the dawn ait FOUR,
1t drove up COWS and washed the
clothes,
And finished every chore.
Just at the break of day.
1t reaped and thrashed the golden
yield,
And hauled it all away
Dlowed the field that afternoon,
And when the job was through
1t hummed pleasant little tune
And churned the butter, too.
And pumped the water for the
stock,
Amid ground al crib of corn,
And hauled the baby round I'll
block
To still it's cries forlorn.
Thus ran the busy hours away.
By many a labor blest;
And yst, when fell the twilight
gray,
The Tractor had no rest.
For while the farmer, peaceful-eyed
Read by the Tungsten'st glow,
The patient Tractor stood outside
And ran the dynamo.

DON'T TAKE YOUR
TROUBLES TO BED

You may labor your fill, friend Of
mine, if you will;
You may worry a bit, if you
must;
You may treat your affairs as a
series of cares,
You may live on scrap ono
crust;
But when the day is dome, put
it out of your head;
! Don't take your troubles to bed.
You may batter your way thru
the thick of the fray,
You may sweat, you may swear
you may grunt;
you must, but this rule
Should ever be kept at the front;
Don't fight with your pillow, but
lay down your head
And kick every worriment out
of the bed.
That friend or that foe (which
he is, don't know,
Whose name we have spoken as
Death,
Hovers close to your side, while
you run or you ride,
And he envies the warmth OF
your breath;
But he turns him away, with g
shake of his head,
When he finds that you DON'T
take your troubles to bed.
Cook.
The best line of heating stove:
We have ever shown.

1 do not think a dolly

And cry to get AWAY.

The Fairies.

The Fairies.
II There are little fairies
That no one ever sees,
Who walk about and talk about
Whatever things they please,
Each nodding stalk of goldenrod
In rain and sunshine growing
So straight and tall, must seem to
them
A lovely elm tree blowing.
Ii there are little fairies
Who sportively sit down
To stay while and play awhile
Among the leaflets brown;
Ii little toadstools near at hand
Should happen to be growing,
4 wonder III they'd think for them
Big circus tents Were going.

COPPER PROPERTIES
 MAKING MONEY

NEW YORK, June 2S.-Wbile cop per shares have scored substantial ad- vances since copper metal began i;s upward moyement and the mines started to increase the production, they arc siill selling far below their earning power on a basis of 2Olacent copper On 2O5s-cent metal the earn- ings on the market price of practical ly an the copper companies average above 20 per cent
 Utah Copper, for example on a production of l5O,O00.OOO pounds a year anc a 7ls-cent cost, should earn around S14 share, including the participation in the earnings of the Nevada Consolidated. This is equiv alent to about 20k per cent on the market value of S6S for the stock
 Ray Consolidated. on a production of 75.OOO.OOO pounds a pear, and O cost of Sis cents. is earning around S6 a share. equal to 24 per cent on Che market value of the stock
 Anaconda Copper, on a production of S00.O00,O 900 poundsC and a cost of 71s cents. is earning over S1O share, or 2S per cent on tho market value of the stock
 Anaconda Copper on a production of S0O.O0O.00O pounds a year and a cost of 10 cents. providing the im- provements now under way cut the cost to that figure, could earn be- tween $6.50 and S7 share or between IS and 19 per cent on Che present market price of SS6 share Anacon- da is now producing 30O.000000 pounds of copper year. but with Improvements under way its output is expected to reach that figure with in a comparatively short time.
 On 2Ok cent copper it is estimat- ed that the earnings of the Calumet & Arizona are over IS per cent on the market value of the stock, -evada Consolidated. around % per cent, North Butte. nearly 20 per cent. Ten nessee Copper ove- 20 per cent, Graudy 26is per cent, and Miami in the neighborhood of 20 per cent
 In view of these large earnings there are many copper interests who claim that the copper stocks have not yet discounted the advance in the price of the metal and increased pro duction resulting largely from war orders.-( (Wan Street Journal)
