"Oh, you Just do the rest Of it?"
"N-no, not exactly You see, the

and the gloves are cut out in another.
Then they send them to another de-

someone else puts on the tips of the

ESCORT COULDN'T SEE JOKE
Incident at coney Island That Prob
ably Taught confetti Thrower q
Lesson He Needed.

A large well-dressed man and
handsome woman were in the Mardi
Gras crowd at Coney island, New
York. They had been waiting some
time for the parade and the woman
began to yawn. Now yawning Is a
very unladylike performance in pub,
lie, and rather q dangerous one in
Coney island crowd, for while the
woman had her mouth wide open and
was getting all the worth there Is to
be had out OF a good healthy yawn q
young man bent on mischief threw a
handful OF confetti right plump into the
oriice, The woman coughed and splut-
tered, and the hoodlum shrieked with
delight. Those about him thought 1t
was a grand joke, too-all but the
woman's escort. He reached out one
powerful arm and grabbed the skylark-
ing youth by the shoulder Then he
brought his fist down on the young
mans straw hat crushing It and driv,
ing his head through the crown and
partly over his ears. Next he turned
the young man around and kicked him
with all the force and swiftness that
outraged dignity and fierce anger to.
gether with great strength afforded,
IL that youth RECEIVERS from that kick
and throws confetti again he will be
careful in picking his target. And.
maybe, the handsome woman If she
yawns again in hurry will not do so
in such mob as turns out to see a
Coney island celebration.

and sheep men to introduce blooded
stock into their herds is very COM
mendahle, and many pedigreed ami
mails have been brought into the
county.
The coming year is full of promise
for the county. Large areas of land
have been patented and will now be
tax able. During toe fail months
large parcels of laud we're ploWed for
spring planting. The, nigh Erice
paid for hay will stimulate the plant
ing OF large acreage OF forage crops in
the spring Of 1915. Then there Is al.
ways the possibility OF railroad build
ing In the way OF extending the Gil

point beyond Salmon.
Let US predict that 1915 will be an
era OF prosperity for Lemhf county
surprising that Of 1915. Let US pull
for good roads. Let Us work for
clean county administration Of coun-
affairs. Let US endsaVOr to place
our public schools upon tue highest
plaDle OF efficiency Let US work

Minutes Of the Meeting Of the
FAR NER'S EDUCATIONAL CLUB.

Meeting was called to order at
three O'Clock p. M, in the Public
School house by the president,
Mr.. 0 .car Boudreaux.
Roll call showed t~enty-one
mem bers present.
The minutes Of the last % aeting
were read and approved.
An article in the Weekly Watch
man complimentary to the cooper
alton of the community was read.
and on motion a vote of thanks
was extended 10 the press ofFfark-
lin for their kind ness in publishing
the minutes of the meetings, and
the enc their C ourtesies
have given the club.
The matter of the relative value
of pea vines as stock food and
fertilizer was then taken up. and
very interesting discu ssion folio W
ed, in which nearly all the mem.
bers participated. The wide di-
vergence of the figures given by
the various farmers showed the
look of uniformity in the culture
and handling of this valuable pro.
duct. For instance one farmer
stated that after pulling his pea
vines for hay, there remained on
the land two-thirds Of the crop.
Another state that after he pulled
his vines there remained on the
ground less than one per cent OF
the crop. When it came to ac.uai
figuring on the relative values Mr..
A. H. Babin made the figures on
the blackboard, which allowed all
to follow the calculations in a very
clear and comprehensive manner.
Mr.. E L. Saucier furnished the
figures on the analysis Of pea vines
and cottonseed meal aud it was
ehown that the vines were several
times more valuable as fertilizer
than as stock food. and many
times more economical than cotton
seed meal.
The general discussion and the
figures made proved conclusively
that the best results would be
obtained by planters if they would
divide their cane landint four ca
parts; one part in plant cane, one
part 10 stubble cane, one part in
corn and velvet beans aud one
part in corn and peas. The velve,
beans to follow stubble cane and
to be plowed under when matured
the peas following the velvet
beans. the pea vines 70 be harvest
ed for hay; then the plant cane to
follow the peas. This relation
promised the following results.
Figuring on a farm Of one hund.
red acres:
Is acres plant came on
q land that had been two
years before in velvet
beans which had been
plowed under, and one
year before had been in
corn and peas should
give 80 tonsto the acre,
which at $500 per ton
would give $1,000 90
Is acres of stubble follow.
ing such plant cane
should give 20 tons to
acre or 500 tons, from
which would be deduct.
ed seed to plant25 acres
or 100 tons. leaving for
the mill 400 tons which
at 81 90 would give 10000
25acres following stubble
planted ia corn and
velvet beans should
yield $50 bbls corn at
$l.00 per Dbl. $4,000
Is acres following velvet
beans plowed under
Ewould give 500 bbs.
corn at Shopper Dbl. 500 90
and Is tons of pea vine
hay worth $40 oper ton
or $50 90
Total cash proceeds from
the 100 acres, gross, So 500 90

now being obtained on the average

One of the most surprising facts
brought out was that an acre OF
good velvet bean vines plowed
