This person had at least one virtue.

goodness and cheerfulness may appear

are concerned they won't exist
And the world will pass you by with

This habit Of determination not to

to be discussed about the egg boiler.
And II at dinner there were red
roses on the table for, Polly, and roses
in P0lly's cheeks for ellsworth and
only q short talk on the subject Of

The evening passed with wonderful
promise Of happiness in its trail, for
Polly and ellsworth had found one

Crawford went up that evening to
the home of the sweetheart who had
been waiting impatiently to hear the

Can you be ready for that trip in

PRAISE TELEPHONE COMPANY
Texas Business Men Pass Resolutions
 Following Fire.

Dallas, Tex.-The city council of Mount Pleasant, Tex, has passed res olutons of praise for the Southwest ern Telegraph and Telephone com pany because of it's quick restoration of service after a bad fire had de- stroyed most of the local and all the long distance telephone connections in that town The resolutions de clare, "That we extend our sincere thanks to the Southwestern T. and T. company, as represented both locally and in the district, for the promptness and skill with which the situation has been handled. and the disposition shown to relieve the inconvenience of the public at the earliest moment pos sible"
 A local telephone man told of how the company was enabled to restore service so quickly in the following in- terview:
 Tt would have been impossible to restore service so quickly in the ease of the Mount Pleasant fire had it not been for the foresight Of the comnany that provides extra and even dupli. cate equipment at central points all over the system. The cost is enor nous and this equinment may lay for years unused. But when fire, flood or storm destroys an exchange or a long distance line this precaution is iusti- fled, for it enables prompt restoration of service that without 1t would re quire days and maybe weeks to re- store"

 Where the strawberry grower is general farmer, the best system is some system of crop rotation Pota. toes, corn and melons, in fact, any Of the hood crops are excellent to pre- cede strawberry planting. Such crops put the soil in excellent shape and have the great advantage of destroy ing weeds. Turning under cowpeaa clover, vefch and rye is an exoelleal practice. The legumes are preferable to other plants. They should be turned under in late fall preceding spring planting. Stable manure and nitrogenous commercial fertilizers are sometimes used to advantage, but as rule, the best results have been secured by crop rotation, turning un- der leguminous plants such as man. toned above, and using acid phos. phate or bone meal on the patch wherever commercial fertilizer is needed. The strawberry grower will find that 1t pays well to put more thought, work, and money into thor. ough preparation of soil before plant. ing new bed. Such practice will break up the habit of continually look ing for new soil.
