FARMERS BUSY SOWING WHEAT

Farmers are putting in good time
this week sowing wheat. The wealth
err for the past few days has been
ideal, and if continued for few days
more will enable them to get their
work well under way. The delay in
opening the tobacco market will work
a hardship on mony of our farmers,
as all their available shed and barn
room is taken up with tobacco, and
until this is moved, they cannot
gather in their crops or protect their
stock There is considerable com
plant in this connection from the to-
bacco belts.

The letter which appeared in the
Daily Sun one day this week from
"Saileor Boy" and written by Henry
IC. Lyon, was not from the editors
scnson as many, we are told, under
stood. This writer is unknown to
the editor of the Daily Sun. The let.
ter was thrown from soldier trair
passing through Greeney;lle, with a
request that it be mailed to this news.
PAPER for publication. The writer
is evidently a Frencnman and las.
M doubt, been assisting in general
war work in this counsrJ. Just how
h. came in possession &c copy OF
the Tally Sun we cannot tell, but it
is quite likely that the pepper was read
at one of the several training camps,
where papers are mailed many of
our boys daily. This explanation is
given in order that justice may be
done both the writer and our son,
Henry Yost Lyon, who is captain in
the Twenty-fourth U. S. Infantry,
and has been stationed at Columbus,
New Mexico for the past sixteen
months.

Gated breed. She also has Bun

Mrs. Stearns, land I find a wonder
full sale for them. They come to
maturity very early, are unusually
porting, six months of the year, as
they are great foragers. They lay
eggs that are especially fine for eat
ing and cooking, but there is too
great a demand for settings of their
eggs for one to eat many of them"
Mrs. Stearns finds that these mall
lards are easily cared for, and says
that each female will produce from
80 to so eggs every season. Like all
wild birds, they lay only during the

domesticated mallards," said Mrs.
Stearns, but a good many people in
other states are doing so. A great
speciality is made of them in Madison,
Wis, at the university. Mrs. Stearns
said that she knew of only one other
person in this state who raises them.
The mallards are of the wild variety
in appearance, but are unusually tame
and seemingly very fond of their mis-
tress. Mrs. Stearns has been engaged
in the poultry industry for nearly
eight years, and has found it so
pleasant and profitable that she would
like to devote her whole time to it.
The above mentioned women, Mrs.
f. J. Hagar, Tower City, and Mrs. NJ.
N. Hatcher Fargo, are the only wom-
en- exhibiting poultry at the show
this year. The exhibit is a most In
teresting one, comprising only the
finest specimens of different varieties,
and is well worth the visit of any
woman, whether town or country
resident. .

namely the immediate withdrawal
