on terracfng. Mr. Johnson says the
ditch should be in the center of the

water burrows into the ditch. Your
lands should be broken in just the OPP

should commence at the center of the
land and throw the dirt to the center
turning gee instead Of haw which is
the customary way. Also, your lands
should not be over u steps wide. You
should harrow and drag the same
way, but run your rows across the
lands and parallel to the ditch. Keep

Last week rambled down the ar
Kansas river past Roland and Natural
steps to Pinnacle, where I took the
train into Little Rock. learned that
ali the bottom land which was in cot
ton last year will be planted il cot
ton again this year, and that all that
was in corn last year viii be planted
in cotton also, and that only the new
ground on the bars which has just
been cleared will be planted in corn.
Well, that's all right People can use
cottonseed meal instead Of flour and
cornmeai, and they can use the cotton
seed oil instead OF lard and meat. The
only drawback to this proposition is
that the twenty million bales of cotton
which they will raise this year viii
not bring in as much money to the
farmer as five or six million bales
would But what Of that? Isn't there
whole lot more fun in raising and
selling twenty million bales than in
raising and selling only five million
So, go to it, boys, it's your business,
not mine.

The first is that one should cut
81 IL and the other 60 ~ yards, and
each take one.haIf Of the money.
Another way was for one to cut the
rough for s183 1-8 yard and the
other to cut the easy part for soc q
yard
Another letter from a clerk in the
Little Rock postoffice would have the
75-eent man dig 50 yards and the SI25
a yard man dig 30 yards, and for each
to dig 10 yards Of the remaining 90.
Fred Douglass OF r. f. 2. 2 Cabot
would have one man to dig rs yards at
the S125 end. which would amount TO
s81.25. and Is yards at the 75-eene
end, which would be $685. both to-
falling $50. The other man should dig
the same amount at the same prices
and the ditch would be dug.
Miss Jewel Hammons, another
teacher, also says it can not be done
and suggests that it be done as fol

62 1-2 yards at 75c, $46.875.
81 II yards at 75c, $46.875.

When the work is completed each,
she says, should be paid $50, because
each has done the same amount Of
work, but as I know Dayy lives in a
very rocky country l would suggest
that each be paid the amount his work
comes to and the remainder be given
to the blacksmith for sharpening
their tools.
Young people are not the only ones
who take it for granted that people
do not mean what they say and ac-
cept their commercial propositions on
that basis. If all will remember this
and in the future when they read or
hear a statement or proposition and
bear in mind that the author of it
probably means what he says they
will frequently save themselves money
and trouble. I believe that is where
our greatest trouble comes in about
religion. we just can't believe God
means what He says.

paper a year from me for half price if
she were to ask, simply On account Of
her extraordinarily good culinary ef-
forts for the Pod mans benefit, when
he was tired and hungry. At her
table he has usually eaten until he
was ashamed of himself, but when he
gets to where there is such a good
cook as Mrs. Wicker he usually eats
that way unless he is sick. In chang
