LITTLE STORY CARRIED STING
Neglected Industrial Possibilities
Of the South.

d. A. Tompkins, the father Of the
cotton-oil industry, who built his for
tune on his inextinguishable faith in
the industrial possibilities of the
South, was fond Of quoting this little
story about Georgia funeral, says his
biographer, DR.. George Tayloe Win
ston, in "A Builder Of the New
South"
II attended q funeral once in Pick
ems county, Georgia. 1t was poor,
'one-gallus' fellow. They buried him
in the midst Of a marble quarry; they
cut through solid marble to make his
grave, and yet little tombstone they
put above him was from Vermont.
They buried him in the heart of a
pine forest, and the pine coffin was
imported from Cincinnati. They bur-
led him within touch Of an iron
mine, and yet the nails Of his coffin
and the iron in the shovel that dug
his grave were imported from Pitts
burgh. They buried him by the side
of the best sheep-grazing country on
earth, and yet the wool in the coffin
bands and the coffin bands themselves
we're imported from the North. The
South did not furnish a thing on earth
for that funeral but the corpse and
the hole in the ground. There they
put him away and the clods ratified
down'on his coffin and they buried him
in New York coat and Boston pair
Of shoes and a pair of breaches from
Chicago and a shirt from Cincinnati,
leaving him nothing to carry into the
next world with him to remind him
of the country in which he lived and
for which he fought four years but
the chill blood in his veins and the
marrow in his bOnes"

SALT ESSENTIAL IN RATION
Material May 20 Supplied by Mixing
With Feed, or It May Be LeftIn
Convenient Box.

Practical observations and scientific
investigations have shown that salt
is essential in the ration Of a dairy
cow. From one to three ounces per
day is needed, depending upon the
amount Of milk produced. Accord
ing to Babcock's investigations at the
Wisconsin experiment station, COW
needs one ounce per day per 1000
pounds live weight with an additional
Clio of an ounce for each 20 pounds
of milk produced. Salt may be sup
piled by mixing the proper amount
with the feed, or it may be placed in
some convenient place where the COW
can get at it daily and take such
amounts as her appetite demands.
Many dairymen prefer to place a lump
of rock salt where the COW can lick
it at will. This is really cheaper and
there is less work. But, however YOU
feed it, don't forget that the cows
must have it-not once every week
or two, but at least each second day
and each day is better.

Antiquity Of Peat.

70 The use of peat as source Of heat
goes back beyond the historical period
In the ancient history Of the early
tribes in northern Germany. Pliny, the
Roman naturalist. gives us possibly
the first indication of the use of peat.
He reports that the TeutOns on the
border of the north sea dried and
burned mud, what we now would call
peat. In Ireland, Great Britain. Rus
sia, Scandinavia, Germany, Holland.
and parts of France peat has been
used as fuel since time mmemorinl.
The peat was cut from the bog very
much in the same manner as it is
still being done in many parts of Eu.

allowed to dry in the wind and sun.

Best Sprinkler.

Many persons must have noticed
that the most diligent sprinkling Of
lawns and fowerbeds fails to impart
to the grass and plants vital stimu-
lus equal to that that comes from a
good shower Of rain.
It is because rain, falling from a
great height through the air, brings
with it considerable quantity Of car
bonic acid, of heterogeneous particles.
and of other elements nutritious to
plants, which it has washed out Of
the atmosphere. So sprinkler used
from the top Of a tall building might
be slightly more effective than when
employed at the surface Of the
ground. IL.

IDEA WOULD PLEASE DICKENS
First Free chiidren's Library in Eno.
land to Be Opened in Old Home
of Novelist.

There is to be opened soon the first
free library for children in England in
a building in which that lover Of chill
dren. Charles Dickens, spent several
eventful years Of his own childhood.
1t Is an idea 50 appropriate and fitting
that all supporters of the scheme must
wish for it's success, remarks the
Christian Science Monitor. The house
in question is 80 Johnson street, Som
ers town, and the Dickens family lived
here after they left Chatham, being
tenants Of the house for FIVE years.
From this house Dickens, the father,
was taken to the Debtors prison, the
Marshalsea, an incident which after
ward supplied his Son with "copy' for
two Of his most famous books. "The
Pickwick Papers" and 'Little Dorrit."
Dickens is striking example of how
much can be accomplished by a case
Of real genius under adverse condi-
lions, and it is he himself in David
Coppertield," who tells US what help
and enlightenment he got in his
wretched surroundings from the few
books which made up his fathers tiny
library. Though small, that library
was rich treasure trove to a clever
child. Don Quixote and Gil Bias
each Of these masterpieces is CON-
posed Of many stores-and from
Fielding, Smollett. Goldsmith and De-
foe Dickens must have learned the
music Of words and the grace and dig
nifty of q. tale of life we'll told.
If his old house now becomes the
home of free library for children
who, like him, may have chance to
forget the, hard facts Of their lives in
the works of great authors, everyone
who has the, welfare Of children at
heart, must rejoice.

How many dairymen would keep a
hired hand on their place who got up
when he felt like it, worked When he
felt like it, and did just as he pleased7
Such a hired man would be losing
proposition and the man who would
keep him would soon become bank
rupt.
On the other hand, how many dairy
men are keeping boarder dairy cows
that produce just as little milk as they
feel like producing, with little or no
profit to the owner?
A dairyman cannot afford to keep
a man that does not do more work
than he is paid for doing. Neither
can he afford to keep a COW that does
not return more money to him than
he puts into her In feed and labor.

FEEDING cows SAWDUST

The facetious statement, re-

to feed them that product. 1t
has been found by experiment
that sawdust from nOn-rcsinous
soft woods can be used, but it
first must undergo a process Of
treatment with certain acids,
which change Il part of the dry
matter. into carbohydrates. How
ever, the low protein content
of sawdust as a feed would not
