meeting in Lexington last weekseveral new features were of interest to growers were dis cussed In the reports from all the counties in regard to the grow ing crop it is disclosed that under the most favorable conditions there will not be more than 50 per cent of a crop grown this year Statements of the financial con dition of the Burley Society and Burley Co show both in good shapeThe District Board recommended a new feature in poolinga ten year pool by landowners with the tenant to do as he wishes with his half of crop pool it or not as he pleases the land owner to take onehalf of his part of crop in stock in a plant to manufacture tobacco This will settle the to bacco trouble as sooner or later the grower will have to go in the market with iris tobacco in shape to reap some of the profit the math ufactured goods bring if he expects to get what his raw leaf is worth The new pool will close January 1 1912 and is declared a pool when there are two sijrners It is needless to say that there will be two signers and the manufacturing plant is a certainty We are informed that several men of wealth are ready to back the new company for any amount of money needed The plans of the

amateur athletics A pitcher- of no mean ability he had been of fered chances time and again to sign with professional aggregations but he had remained an amateur un til the completion of his course Now ho aspired to greater things and the management of the Baneville Iron and Oil league team had been offered him Upon his ability to make good here rested his future in baseball He had confidence in himself He had no fear- Sterling was doubly thankful to he able to locate in Baneville it was his home town it was also the home of his seetheiirt They were to be married in the fall I am glad

catch it when he throws it fast A mindpicture of fourteenyear old Willie Jones flashed for an in stant before Sterling Remarkable ironylieal1 we know He does so well continued tin girleagerly and I am sure he win pennantOfplace he likes best Sterlings resolute jaw would indi cate that he would be the sort ofn manager not to accede to the wants of men until they proved themselves but he was wise in his decision no to mention this Ill see how he works out he said and the subject for the time being was dropped Baneville had been at the bottom pf the league list when the previous season closed Sterling had ambi tions He wished to see the present season produce a pennant winner for his own town There was plenty of good material tryoutAmongplace on the local team were earnest eyed young athletes from all sections of the state Prospects indicated a fast nine The first process of weeding out was barely under headway before Dave Hertig materialized his tooth pick legs sticking skinnily out from padded baseball garments and his white bony arms free from tan or any display of muscle hut young Hertig was none too pleased with his reception He was Weedily tried out in nine different positionsand found wanting in all Furthermore Sterlings vocabulary was startlingly suggestive of a gal vanic batteryin effect Hertig would have liked to protest against Sterlings methods but one glance at the suddenly developed fighting face of the hitherto congenial broth inlawtobe palsied the tongue oi the youth The young bank clerk went straight homeand retired I want you to make a ball plays of him came from the girl wist fully I cant bear to have the poor tboy disappointed You will wont you Umm came disgustedly from the managerI it voiced the delighted girl I wouldnt love you at all iiff you didnt do this for me Sterling stared Do you mean that you would throw me over if I refused to play your brother this sea son Whyyes answered the girl But what is the use of all this talk You do intend to use Dave for you have promised Ill use him came from Ster ling grimly And Illuse him bad he muttered under his breath 0 Fred1 What on earth is the matter with Dave He came home tins evening with a black eye a cut lip and three teeth gone He wont explain He says he is done with baseball forever Dont worry soothed Sterling The season opened today at Warren you know Dave made his de but But how did he get hurt He umpired the game came from the team manager He is such a clever youth when it comes to the finer points of the sport that it seemed to me that he must know the game from A to Z I got him ap Toothpick Legs and Bony Arms pointed hutwell his decisions were pretty bad today and some of the boys objected to his weird rulings Hell be all 0 K tomor row Sterling

however looked upon the mat rimonial affair as favorably settled He could wait her return A year and a half later Miss Jen nie returned Abe drove over to the village amid the depot to meet her He advanced to throw his arms around her but she retreated He looked for a kiss but got none When he stood back and gazed at her he saw n great change She railed him Abe but in a distant wayOn the way home when he tried to call up the sparking days she warned him not to be silly She took very little interest in the pig anil lions and when he braggedof digging three acres of potatoes in a lay she didnt seem to think it mounted to much Oh yes there was a change and it was a bad one for Abe There wits no more sparking no more talk of matrimony There were times when she addressed him as Mr Saundcrs Ue was no fool He realized that a gulf land opened and he set him elf to solve the problem He got the wrong end of it just as other mart men have lie came to the conclusion that there was a fellow in the caseone of those town fellows and something soon happened to orroborate his idea A cousin arrived Ho was a fel ow He +wore good clothes and was lucated He could talk well and +ing well

hall shown that young man that he had no use for him but now he would go further fIe would cripple him for lifepoiSon him slayI him with a club strangle him The man who Had stolen his sweet v l1 1 jheart should die Abe might be hung for it but ho would die happy Ho had just come to this conclusion i and the kneehigh cornstalks were looking red to him when the young man in the case appeared before him He had wandered out to the field to pass time Abe sprang forward with a curse and the hoe uplifted to strike but- sa promptly knocked down As he silt up and looked around in a dazed ray he was asked Xow then have you gone crazy Look up here and tell me whats the matterYou know you villain 1 mut tered Abe I know that you have been down on me for something since I came but I cant guess

this fall tool give it proper care during the winter Everyone who is not growing a variety with good breeding behind it should iiet such a variety before another year roes by Once a productive variety is found seed should be I selected from ones own Held rath er than buy seed from a distance ns the imported seed is likely to be not so well adapted to the local conditions as the homegrown seed In buying new seed it is safest to get it from a grower of reputation as near home as possible Most corn growers select seed from the crib in the sprint therefore it is not possible to now anything about the conch Lions under which it grew The whole plant andnotl the ear iis the unit of selection The reasonable way then is to go into the Held when the corn is coming into maturity and select good ears on well developed stalks of the same maturity The stalkshould be of medium height stocky anc1 IIvigorous bearing the ear about four feet from the ground with it good shank that gives the ear just enough drop to protect it from tin rain Select for two or three stalks in the hill according as you expect to grow two or three in a hill An ear that is good with beenjpoor o stalks in the hill See that then are no nubbin or barren stalks close to the selected lplants as they are generally from weak seedand the selected ear will have been cross fertilized by them 3Iark the ears selected by tying a fjjg to them and allow them to mature thoroughly Gather as soon as mature husk and hang up hi a dry well ventilated place where there will be no injury by mice A very good way to hang corn is to string it up so that the iurs do not touch each other vend much as boys hang up their pop corn Select at least twice as litany ears as will be needed for seedsince ninny will have to be discardedas not coming up to the the desired type These points cannot be determined in the field u Jn the spring before planting time make a germination test of every ear and discard all weak ones Select SO of the finest and strongest ears and shell them to ether and plant them in a seed block in a place on the farm where they will be lease exuosed to your neighbors corn Then select the next years seed from this block us directed for selecting in thin Held Plant each year a seed block by using the best 50 curs This procedure will improve the yield and quality of your corn For further information address

Himself 4 j Prom the total training during childhood there should result in the child a taste for interesting and im proving reading which should direct and inspire its subsequent intel lectual life That schoolingwhich results in this taste for good reading however unsystematic or eccen ric the schooling may have been has hievcda main endof elementary education and that schooling which dots not result in implanting this permanent taste has failed Guided and animated by this impulse to acquire knowledge and exercise his imagination through reading the individualwill continue to educate himself all through life Without thl deeprooted impression he will soon cease to draw on the accumu lated wisdom of the past and the new resources of the present andas he grows older he will live in a mental atmosphere which is always growing thinner and emptier Do we not all know many people who seem to live in a mental vacuumto whom in deed we have great difficulty in at tributing immortality because they apparently have so little life except that of the body Fifteen minutes a day of good reading would have given anyone of this multitude a really human life The upliftingof the democratic masses depends on this implanting at school of the taste of good reading d 4 SUREe4 Its no use We must get a sep aration That is what I say Isnt it beau tiful how we agree- OFFENDING BLACK BOTTLE A

should upon their oaths confirm the verdict if they thought fit This they did Authori ties now agree however that the chosen 12 were not jurors but mere ly compurgators sworn to give evi dence The

the Subject of Ef fectlvlsm and Exaggeration The French sculptor Rodin always has been looked to as one of the best commentators upon art of his day A bopkof his sayings on art questions is almost as valuable as one of his books of pencil drawingsand these arc by many esteemed above any thing he has succeeded in executing in vindication of his profound theo ries and convictions He has recent ly had something to say on this very subject of effectism and exaggera tion What especially pleases the ignorant is an unexpressive minuteness of execution and a sham nobility of action The vulgar care nothing for the sincere observation that scorns theatric poses and is in terested only in the perfectly simple but far more thrilling attitudes of real life People rave over poses that are never seen in nature and call them artistic because they suggest the swagger of Italian models seeking employment When you haye seen a picture or read a bit of literature and noticed neither drawing nor coloring nor style you have felt an emotion that filled your heartBoston Transcript CHARACTER IN PENDENNIS How the Supposed Prototype of Foker Pestered the Author of the Book Mr Arcedeckne the prototype of Foker piqued at being portrayed as in Pendennis took every occa sion of annoying its author by fa miliarity ofmanner One day when Thackeray was sit ting in the smoking room of the Gar rick in hia favorite attitude his legs crossed one foot pointed in the air andsurrounded by admirers Forcer advancedand hailing him with Well Thack how are you struck his match at the same time on the sole of the upturned foot and pro ceeded to light his cigara liberty which Thackeray very much re- Sented It was he of course who on hear ing Thackeray say he was feeling somewhat nervous as to the success of his lectures in America called out Ill tell you what you want Thack You want a piano Brookficld Cambridge Apostles W LITTLE COLOR THERE I notice by official order from Washington that enlisted men of the regular army must wear their dress uniforms when off duty in city streets said the man whose mili tary interest is based on real serv ice But the plain citizen need not think that the soldiers in full dress are going to add vivacity andcolor to tho streets as do the red and gold warriors in European cities Nothing like it The order merely means that khaki and olive drab uniforms are not good form hereafter The gorgeous dress uniform of the American private is a little more stunning than that of a sleeping car conductor but not as nobby as the garbof a hotel bellboy- POLITENESS INDEED In a little commune in Brabant is to be seen a big notice board at the entrance of the town On it appears the following notice to automobiles One hundred Kilometers an hour When we know that 100 kilometers equals 75 miles it scarcely need be added that the wit of tht commune has added a nought to the notice But the palm of original notices we learn belongs to a little English town On the board ono reads Please drive slowly Fifteen hun dred yards further on is another board bearing the words Thank you As the French journal from which we take the story observes it is an exquisite example of politeness KNEW HIS TIME TABLE A woman waited and waited for a car in a Boston suburb and no car came Finally she lost all patience Will you please tell me she demanded of the starter an old man seated on a keg

Shell be from the West Im going to Texas right nowNew York women do not know the real meaning of marri age They marry for a home to live out of they marry a man to be away from him they marry in fact to get divorced in order to get a new husband or live on the almouy of the first Children are the last thing they want They are the vary last word of the useless Colonel Edward II 1L Green who promised his mother Mrs Hetty green that he wouldnot marry untill he was 20 years over age has kept his word and is now qualified for matrimony Also he is willing if the right lady can be found But it would appear he is not pleased with the women he has seen in New York The Now York woman leads the country in n hunt for nose rings and hobble skirts instead of houses he declares- If they can have beautiful clothes and look fashionable Colonel Green said if they can ride in automobiles or own yachts u cottaste at Newport or a villa at Bar Harbor they are snug in their domestic accomplishments None of them knows how to cook or sew And holy horrors they would deny that their good old homely grandmothers knew how to wash clothes Some of their JJgrandmothers didwash clothes too- These New York women are the last word in the useless they are parasites for fair All they want are clothesand then more clothes New York is fashion madand pity it is that women from other States follow like sheepWhy let a good domesticated little woman from my Statefrom Texascomo here and in a few weeks shell be a fine veneer of the New York woman Ifafashionable New York woman went up Fifth auenue with a ring in her nose the jewelers couldnt finish nose rings fast enough to supply the demand The hobble skirt got down to the Mexican border in my State six weeks after the first one arrived in New York Wonien should marry with the idea of having children and caring for a home How many of these women here do it1 Most married women here among the wealthy classee dont know any more about why paregoric is given or when the youngster is expected to cut its first teeth than they know about ichthyosaurus They Ipave that to thousand dollar doctors and to hundred f J 4 dollar nurses and as for their own tableswellall I have to say is that if more women knew how to cookchicken and make pies there would be less divorce and fewer higherpricedrestaurants UTe are always talking about the cost of living Its because women insist upon being decked with jewels and fine clothes for the simple purpose of parading before other men They want to peacock it about in fashionable restaurants and at the theaters for the purpose of being seen by men who arent their husbands The Western women who live in smaller communities are a dif fernt type and have different standards Environment has everything to do with
