HE TOOK A THOUGHT

Taylor Smith, a corn club boy in
Clay county, grew 135 bushels of
corn on an acre last season. No one
is ever satisfied, for in writing of his
work, he closed his letter by saying:
"The fourth time 1 went through
and cleaned the weeds out of it.
That made four times 1 cultivated
my corn in ALL When l left my corn
it was in good growing cultivation.
After my corn had been planted,
took thought. If it had been drill
ed, the yield might have been larger
than it really was. But / was very
we'll pleased with the yield had"

SaADES OF THE IMMORTAL
DANIEL.

A good test question in a general
knowledge examination paper for
English college students, or for the
new House of Commons, would be.
Name. three United States Senators,
with the States they represent in
Congress. The number of peopie able
TO score full mark would be dis
tnessingly small. The truth is, one
suspects. that the American Senate,
or the French, does not exist for the
ordinary Englishman, even when his
education has been, as things go
pretty good The man with a little
knowledge of American history may
have dim memory of a past Sen.
ator or two-Charles Summers, say,
and Richard Webster.

BUILD LIME SHED.

The farmers about Lewisport, KY.
are determined to have ground lime
stone to haul to their farms when
ever they happen to be on the road
home with an empty wagon. No
farmer was allowed to take more
than SIS worth of stock in the shed
so that great many farmers might
be interested. The County Agent in
writing the College of Agriculture
lately said:
Money now in the bank for the
building of the shed besides enough
to pay the freight on two carloads
of limestone. This shows what eigh-
teen progressive farmers can do"

ed Him in Business.

ed Him in Business.
In an attractively published souvenir
! brochure of the fortieth anniversary OF
the F. w. Woolworth Company occurs
this striking tribute to his wife:
IF. w. Woolworth's justifiable pride
in the organization is shared by his
devoted wife, Jennie Creighton Wool
worth, formerly of Picton, Ontario
Canada, whom he married in 1875
Mrs. Woolworth helped her husband
during his critical years and after sue
cess had arrived, as only a loyal wife
can help. Mr.. and Mrs. Woolworth
lived happily together in their New
York home "a happiness rendered
more complete because their two sur
viving daughters, who are married, live
near themt'
In stories Of the death Of Mr.. Wool
worth, 1t stated that, he had divorced
his wife, paid her a. fat alimony, and
that she had started stores Of her own
in competition. This statement was alb
solutely untrue. Mr.. Woolworth never
had any domestic difficulties. He had
only one wife and that wife was living
with him at the time of his death anG
MS entire fortune was willed to her.
The paragraph quoted above, taken
from the souvenir booklet, shows how
she had helped him in his business
both in the early struggling years and
after success came. She was truly
helpful wife. .3
The story in regard to domestic diff
ficulties pertains to another man nam
ed Wooiworth who was in the 5 and 10
cent business, married an actress who
finally divorced him and did open some
and 10 cent stores of her own, fin
ally selling out to one Of the large
chain organisations.
