that crop prospects were never better in
the valley. and that the beet outlook
was especially promising. THE beets

soaking as soon as the farmers can get

Beet thinners have arrived little
ahead of time, at least since the spring has
not presented itself in the proper manner

First cutting Of alfalfa hay began this
week and next week will probably be in
full swing over good part of this terri
tory. Messrs. E. H. Gregg Of Wiley
and A. Gardner OF May Valley were the
first to start their moving machines from
the information we get. They took their
cue from the advices sent out by hay
buyers generally and it is expected that
early cutting will soon be the general
practice here. The crop promises if no.
thing untoward happens to be the biggest
first cutting in the history of the county.

When some far-off alf-forgotten
cousin of Sally Mee's died and left her
a hundred dollars all her neighbors
who heard the glad news came to tell
Sally how glad they were. and also to
offer her advice upon how to spend it
Now, Mis- Mee," said Mrs. Stacey,
that hundred dollars's going to help
you out wonderful. I tell you a hun
bred dollars is nice, large sum.
There's almost no end to the things 1t
will get I know, Mis- Nee, that you
have to live awful careful; l know you
go without a good many times. But
now you can even eat beefsteak and
chicken if you want it. There's nothing
heartens one like good victuals, to my
way, of thinking"
Sally Nee said nothing. 1t was per-
fectly true that she did not always
have what she wanted to eat. Beef
steak and chicken had been little more
than names to her for long time.
But she had no intention of spending
her precious fortune in that way.
Miss Cole had another scheme. That
hundred dollars will make you nice
nest egg. I'm great hand to have
something laid by. There's always a
rainy day coming. you know

days" Sally answered, gently. It's
rained oftener than it's shone all my
life long"
Mrs. jerks said that Sally ought to
look out for a better place to live in.
Il know this little north facing room
can't be comfortable either winter or
summer. You can have my south
chamber, electric lighted and heated, if
you want. And I'll charge you reason
ably"
Thank you," replied Sally. but I've
lived here so long that it seems like
home. And it's plenty good enough for
me-"
Little Vira Wilson had no advice to
give.
But if it was mine I'd get something
I'd always wanted and never had" she
said. Il guess that's foolish talk, Mrs
Nee. And maybe you don't feel like |
do I'm not very sensible, anyway"
NO, you're not" said Sally. But she

face. And Vira smiled back into
