Oats were a little weak. The depression
resulted chiefly from hedging sales.
Scattered showers In the southwest tended
to ease the corn market. Nearby deliveries

A SMILE ALONG THE WAY

Have you got a heap of troubles,
Are you feeling mighty blue?
Guess you'd better look around you
Lots of, folks worse off than you
Not so many feel like singing
When the skies are dark and gray.
Lots of weary folks would bless you
If you'd smile along the way.
Sighing's never going to help you
Get the thing you're longing for.
Only makes the days go slower,
Only makes your heart feel sore.
Better make bit of sunshine,
Help to make some sad heart gay,
And the angels will be near you,
If you smile along the way.

HOW BOYS WOULD BE
KEPT ON THE FARM

A Colorado farm boy has offered
these suggestions to parents who
want to keep their boys and girls on
the farm: --
Get good books, magazines and
farm papers for the young people to
read.
"Have some kind of club for them
to attend
Arrange matters so they can have
a party or entertainment once in a
while.
/, GO with them to church every
Sunday.
Arrange it so they can have one
or more picnics every year. ~.
Teach them to do all kinds of
farm work by giving them small
tract of land for themselves and show
ing them how to raise their crops, and
have them help you with your work.
"Give them horse which they can
ride or drive when they haven't any
thing to do or when they want to go
anywhere. y
Presumptuous as it may seem for
