ON FACES.

Today. dear children, We will
speak OF faces. First we will con-
slider the oyster which is practically
all face. Now that we have consid-
cred the oyster. we will consider he
angleworm, which has no face 10
speak OF. Lying somewhere be-
tween these two noble animals comes
man, and incidentally. dear children,
lying is one OF the very best things
he does.
Man has a face which Is composed
OF a nose. mouth, ears. chin and a
few other ingredients arranged in
proper sequence and juxtapositiOn.
often these features though presum-
ably related do not cooperate prop
erly and show no team work what
soever In such cases a face IN
stead or being an asset Is a distinct
liability. We know many such faces
which at a forced sale would realize
less than three cents on the dollar.
But the owners do not care. They
cannot see them.
And then. children, there are other
faces-faces that are a balm and a
benson. faces that explain why
boys leave home; why q fool and
his money are soon parted: why the
chicken crossed the road and other
cosmic problems. Such a face was
Helen's-"the face that launched a
thousand ships" Such a face has
caused thousands Of otherwise sane
and reasonable men to write gooey
letters that are later read aloud in
open court at vast expense.

Hearing Uncle Abner Proctor

On the telephone.

Bad rheumatic leg;
Pilsner beer is indicated,
Give him half a key.
But our relatives condition
Stayed about the same.
SO we sent for the physician
And again he came.
He has been q bit too frisky"
said the wise VI. d.
Give him half a quart Of whisky
Every day at three
Still the old mans ailment made hin
Rage and howl and roar.
And the doctor. called TO aid him,
Came around once more.
Give him any liquor handy"
said The medico.
Rum or sherry, gin or brandy,
Every hour or so.
Though the booze acts "a tonic
After every drink.
This especial case is chronic,
We've begun 10 think.
Hurriedly TO get the doctor
Every day we send.

about bushels of them for each
acre of land. onions do we'll on soil
that is rich and we'll supplied with
vegetable matter. A heavy coating
of yard manure is fine for this
crop used as a top dressing. A good
formula to use is one containing 4

4 to per cent potash. This may
be applied at the rate of 500 to l.

Irish potatoes should be planted
in February in this section of Geor

the land should be prepared in the
fall and laid off in 3 to 3.5-foot
rows. Potatoes should be planted
in the water burrows and covered
with earth to a depth of several
inches. We prefer to leave two eyes

apart in the drill. We generally put
about 500 pounds Of fertilizer under
the drill row at the time the pota-
toes are put out and then use one
or two side applications after the
crop has gotten well under way. We
believe a formula containing 4 to

suits with this crop.
