for it. In the latest issue
of the Harvester World"

out by the company, appears
the following gospel:
mo effort to sell goods is
complete without some adj
vertising in the local news
papers"
This, coming from peo-
pie who know, ought to
have some weight.

When you hear a man shout
ing hard times, just put him
down as a pessimist. There is
no such thing as hard times in
this part of the country. When
you see farmers taking out new
automobiles nearly every day in
the week it is a sign of prosper
ity with them, and when you &c
out and try to find a man to work
and fail, you know they are al
busy, and that is the way it is
in this part of the country.

Last year worms denuded
thousands of trees in this part OF
the country. Did you do your
part toward getting rid of the
nests before the worms left them
and scattered over the trees? II
is absolutely necessary to get the
whole caboodle while the worms
are small, and before they leave
the nest. 1t is hard to get rid OF
them afterward. But they can
be killed by spraying. But it is
easier to take a stitch in time.
Burn the nest as soon as you
see it.

Penny Wise and Pound Foolish

Hard times make every woman
look to see where she can save
money, which, Of course, Is sen
sible and proper If not carried
too far.
In the case Of food 1t would be
foolish to attempt to substitute
savdust for breakfast food
because It is cheaper. Everyone
knows saWdust has no food value
and its use would be positive
detriment to the health.
Alum baking powders may cost q
little less than cream OF tartar
powders like Royal, but many or
the highest food authorities both
in this country and abroad have
declared them to be injurious and
not safe to use.'
TO attempt to cut the cost OF
living by using 1oW-grade alum
powders is unwise economy.

II know where there's a hill
Where the brook makes a bend
To go down to the mill.
And the meadowlands end:
And the forest trees rise
With the shadows between
That are glad to ones eyes,
And are soothingly green.
And you look far away
From the hilltop, and see
How the breezes all stray
Past the hawberry tree
That is deep in the wheat.
And go whispering low
In the glimmer of heat
Where the red peoples grow.
Miles away. so it seems.
Are the spires of the town
But the shade holds our dreams
Where the light shuttles down;
And there is not a sigh,
And there Is not q care,
And the hilltop Is high
And | want to go there.
