JONES SAT- ON THE FENCE.

Jones fattened wonderful hogs
Jones was fond of sitting on the pig
pen fence for hours at time. One
of his neighbors who had watched
Jones sitting on the fence, said: "Do
you know, | believe it would pay me
to hire Jones to whittle sticks and sit
n my pig-fence. | believe he'd make
my hogs fatten just because they
could look at him from time to time.
The neighbor of Jones did not real.
ize why Jones always had great sue
cess in feeding hogs for the market
Jones' success lay in his liking for his
hogs. He was so thoroughly interest.
ed in his hogs that he could not heir
sitting on the fence and watching
them. And as Jones sat on the fence
and observed his hogs he became q
thoroughly well educated feeder OF
hogs. He got to the point where he
knew hogs and he enjoyed knowing
hogs.
All of which means that a man OF
a woman to succeed in farming, ir
gardening, in hog raising, in handling
turkeys or in home making has to like
the job. A loveless job is rarely 3

The foregoing carries out an idea

One thing Mr.. Brownlow seemed to
miss most was the old Maxwell House

made 'flat as fritter.' However, he
found Nashville a better Nashville

On account of our long friendship
for Congressman 7. w. Sims, who is
now in the race for the United States
Senatorial nomination, we are often
asked what we believe or hoped for as
to the result of his race in the primary
to be held on the 3rd day of August.
We are forced to answer that we have
no fixed belief as to the result of the
primary and our hope for the success
Of Mr.. Sims therein depends entirely
upon whether or not the Democrats of
Tennessee cast Their votes on the val
|ue of a man as an investment to rep
resent this State in the Senate of the
United States. If the Democrats of
the State are led in the matter, il they
are driven in the matter as cattle,
then there is no telling what the re-
suit win be-but if they will read
facts and not be mislead by the insin-
cere daily press, if they will cast their
votes for the man who has the best
record in behalf of the Democratic
principles, for the man who has in
his head governmental knowledge
that the balance Of the candidates will
never acquire, Mr.. Sims will be over
whelmingly elected. His record in
Congress for twenty-four years
stands without a blot-without a sim
gle vote cast or measure worked for
not in the interest Of the common peo-
pie from whom he sprung. Mr.. Sims
is man Of fine judgment, a man OF
pronounced principles to which he is
as true as the needle to the pole.

THE HOME OF THE SOUL.

In the olden times, it was believed
that the seat Of the soul was the stom-
ach, most likely for the reason that a
man is never so completely used up as
when his stomach is out of order. For
the cure of ordinary stomach troubles.
there is nothing quite so prompt and
satisfactory as Chamberlain's Tablets.
They strengthen the stomach and en-
able it to perform its functions natur-
ally. Give them a trial. They only
cost quarter. All druggists.

Preserving Eggs in Water Glass.

| Water glass is a substance used in
glass making 1t is made by melting
together quartz, sand, and soda ash,
and looks like thick white syrup. 1t
can be bought at drug stores, feed and
poultry supply stores.
| How to use water glass: Wooden
kegs, candy pals, or stone jars, are
usually used for holding the eggs.
Prepare the vessels by cleaning thor
oughly; boil fourteen Q4) quarts of
water and while the wateris still warm,
add one Q) quart of water glass and
mix well. Some recipes call for one a.
part of water glass to nine (9 parts of
water. but the above recipe of one ~
to fourteen Q4) has been found very
satisfactory and much cheaper. If the
vessel is about half filled with this solu-
ton, the eggs may be put in from day
to day as they are gathered, and this
amount of solution will usual cover the
eggs so that none are exposed to the
air. Covering the vessel with oiled or
CREASED paper will prevent evaporation.
The eggs should be kept in the same
way as are canned fruits or vegetables.
Eggs may be placed in the vessel in
any position. Boiled water is quite sure
to be pure. Only clean, fresh eggs
should be used.
Write to the Library, Colorado Ag-
ricultural College, Fort Collins, for the
complete circular on Preserving Eggs
in Water Glass.

ing the strange cages cut the collegians
from several baskets, Captain James
Walsh in particular not being able to
convert with frequency on easy tries.
To Hugh Hamburger must go
credit for the victory. This forward,
playing his first year on the college
team, converted nine of II tries at
, free throws and connected regularly
with the basket when given opportun-
tiles from the field.
This week will be hard one for
the collegians, the quintet having
