There is not such a great amount
of happiness in the world, even at
the best, that we should risk losing
it by our own misdeeds and i'll
nature. There are many people
in life who may be likened to a
briar bush, when one comes too
near he gets stnng by thorns; but
each individual should remember
that he himself is sometimes thorny
and apt to inhiCt wounds. There
fore each one should be more
lenient toward the other, remember
ing that the more one strives
against such things the deeper
theg penetrate and the more pain
full wounds they make. A spark
of fire if left to itself will eventual
ly die out, but if it be uursed and
fuel added, behold, what a great
confagration ensues. Forbearance
is the only remedy, and although
everyone may not possess the un-
exampled patience of Job, yet what
little they have may be cultivated
till things WILDE made togo smooth
ly and easily.

A farmers organization will

dog gets i'll your sheep and
cleans them out, but you can't

there will be need of serum in

serum in large orders for E
cents per does. BY organiza-
ton the farmer in the remotest

in touch with the agent and
assisted in many ways.
In the buying of seed, vac
cine, fertilizer, farm nipple
ments, lives stock, in drainage
and schools, and roads and in
finding a market for your pro-
duce the key to it all is orga-
nization. In every we'll ma
mayed business there is unity
of purpose. Hang together
or Hang Separately" it is up
to you to decide.
Why not get together and
organize and build up your
community and make it a
better place to live in? Get
good roads and have a COM
munity Fair each year at the
School House and see that the
animals that are diseased in
your ward are treated and the
we'll ones protected and saved.
Organization is the only way
to do this.
This is of vital interest to
every farmer in the Parish, it
is the only way to improve the
conditions of things i'll your
community and save money
for yourself that ought to be
saved.

decided that it was better
to get together and drink out

both got milk. On all ques-
tons the farmer don't seem to
appreciate the value of COM
n1unity cooperation, or ward
cooperation. Why not form a
farmers organization in each
ward in Nermilion Parish and
each man pull in the same di-

for literature through MANY cen
turtles of civilized life. The most
volumnous as we'll as the most va
ried treatmeet of the same and its
finer issues has been at the hand
of the poet. This is due to the
fact that domestiCity is closely

that have become part and parcel
of our lives and cannot be detatch-

The average housekeeper in mo-

her time i'll the kitchen doing work
that might be much lightened if
only she would bring herself to
think so. But the average mother
of family simply will not spare
herself. She ruffles and tucks the
Children's clothing so that she may
have more ironing to do, and cooks
many more different dishes for
the table than is at all necessary
for wholesomeness, thus making
herself much more work in this
direction. Better spare yourself,
householder. even though your
family live simply. How much
more pleased will husband and
children be to see mother look
fresh and tidy than to see her
heated and tired---too worn out to
enjoy the dainty repast she has
worked so hard to serve. Some
day they will miss you when it is
too late, if you give yourself no
