The Home Garden

Give attention to the garden, for 1t will pay you well. There is no better investment on the farm than a good garden, this planned, well proportioned, well planted and we'll worked. Give some study and thought to it, and with the advice and help of the good wife, make a special effort to have a good garden this coming season. A good assort- ment of fresh vegetables coming to the table in palatable form throughout the growing season brings wealth and happiness to the home, and reduces the cost of living no little. Especially is this true if good garden is SUD- plemented with plenty of milk and butter and eggs. All these things are possible on the aver age farm and the good farmer should not neglect any of them. In arranging your garten have both early and late crops of the different kinds of vegetables, so your garden will not run out.
 Keep fresh vegetables coming on all the season. It is not hard to do. If you cant make and cultivate a good garden for your wife, then do the next best thing and help her make one. If you can't do that then at least make and plant your wife a good garden. As mat ter of precaution in the latter instance 1 would lay down the general proposition that no man should plant a bigger garden than his wife can cultivate.

 Commissioner.

Baptist Society

Another bi-monthly meeting of the Baptist Society was held in the cozy home of the Misses Webb on the first of March, clos ing their allotment of time for the free distribution of Bibles and trac ts.
 The devotional opening sers vices were followed by an alpha betical Bible drill, of places and persons which was interspersed with incidents of special inter- est, and was participated in by most of the Society. The read ings by Mesdames Charlie Will ans, McLane and Nichols were much enjoyed, as was the in- strumental duet by Mrs. Black and Miss McLane, also a trio by Mrs. Valentine, Misses Self and Gibson. The last, but not least enjoyed, was a solo by Miss Self. The services closed with prayer.
 The refreshments were gener- ously supplied by the refresh ment committee, Mrs. Russell and Miss Webb, adding zest to the social hour.
 Few, if any meetings, record a pleasanter time than this in the commodious home of the Misses Webb.

A Thank Offering

About six years ago a promls- ing young missionary, at home on furpugh, was accidently burned to death. He left a wife and several small children. In order to care for her little fam fly the wife has, during the years since her husband s death, eked out her income by giving music lessons. A few days ago the following letter was received at the Presbyterian foreign board of rooms from this devoted Christian woman:
 The struggle to keep my little family together has been very hard, especially so at times. but each year the Heavenly Father has helped me through. All this time 1 have put aside one tenth of whatever came to me. 1 have been so thankful to God for helping me, and for letting me have nine-tenths of what ever He has given me, asking me to give back to Him only one-tenth for His work, that l have been saving that tenth with the desire to get an amount large enough to apply it to some definite need on the field where my husband labored, for of course love those people best of all.
 But 1 fully understand how essential it is that money be ready for immediate use in China and so 1 am taking from my fund to send to you for China"
 This is surely a case of conse- crated giving. and will not lose it's reward. -EX.

Have You Named Your Farm?

The movement to have every American farmer select a name for his farm and use the name as a trade mark, is meeting with great success in some parts of the country. Many of our ex- changes have published lists of the names selected for the farms of their neighborhoods. the pub lication acting as sort of a patent or copyright. 1t has been said by some minimizing persons that the plan is not American, but little reflection will convince anyone that the point is not well taken. Wash ington called his home Mt. Vernon, Jefferson the great democrat, named his place Monticello and any school boy can give you a dozen other instances.
 So name your farm and put the name out where everyone can see it. Make it a Trade Mark. A well-known advertised trade mark is well worth thous- ands of dollars to the owner. Your farm and it's products are your stock and trade. Name them and you have added real hard cash value to everything you sell, Choose a name well suited to surroundings, a name that will tell in it's very sound someof the characteristics of your business home: then come to us and have your letter heads made for your correspondence with the name of your farm on them and your name and your wife's name and your postoffice address beneath. Of course you want your wife's name on your sta tionery. She is your partner and the best and the truest, and the hardest working, and the most interested party in the whole concern. Once you were glad to get the chance to endow her with all your worldly goods, now make your promise real.
 Call in or write us. We will be glad to show samples and duote prices. It doesn't really cost very much.

CITE AFTER EFFECTS
OF EXPOSITIONS
United Press.

United Press.
CHICAGO, April docs the good
that world expositions do live after
the gates are closed and do the evil
inferred with the key?
This is the question many in San
Francisco are asking and st. Louis
folks have answered in various ways
But Chicago residents believe the
Worlds Columbian exposition, given
in 1898, has been worth more to Chi
cago than it cost.
Some few Chicagoans believe, how
ever, that the unemployed evil' had
its origin in the exposition. Thou
sands came here, it is said, expecting
to receive work and were unable to
leave.
Elevator railroads had been talked
of and had been tried but had never
been proven until along came the fair
And the Jackson Park elevated rail
road was first used to handle the vast
crowds thronging Chicago to see the
fair. Talk of tearing down the road
after the fair was quashed when the
most populous suburbs of the city
grew along its route.
Standing in Jackson park, which
was the exposition grounds, is the
Field Columbian museum, scientists
call it a monument to the 1893 ex-
position. Near it is the old German
building, built by the German govern
ment. The park itself is the bes.
gift the fair gave to Chicago. It was
laid out and beautified for fair pur-
poses.
Leading to the ex-fair grounds Is
Chicago's own midway. The best park
ed boulevard in the world. Some OF
the city's best residences have been
built along the midway. It also leads
to the University of Chicago. And
all around town the visitor sees count
less bronze, and other statuary, bull,
temporarily for the fair, which now
is used for the Identification Of the
city.
