! Annulment from “Lazies Man.” New York. —The champion lazy jnan who refused for years to get up in the morning to go to work came to light before Supreme Court Justice Mitchell May in Brooklyn when Mrs. Margaret Hannigan asked for annul ment of her marriage to James Han nigan because he refused to work. Mrs. Hannigan, a very pretty gir, of twenty, put on the stand by Law yer John S. Bennett, testified that when she married Hannigan he de clared that he had a position and was making a good salary. “The morning after we were mar ried,” she said, “he refused to get up and go to work. I thought it was .strange. The next day he did the ; ame thing, and so on for three weeks. Then I made inquiries and learned shat he had deceived me. He had not had a job in years. “I had to go to work myself. Then he sat around the house all day and smoked cigarettes. I pleaded with him to be a man and get something to do like other young married men, but he would only shrug his should ers and say what was the use. “My mother and my brother ther took him in hand, but he simply de fied them in the same way that ht had defied me. I stood this for aye and then left him. He is still out o: work and is living with his mother. Lawyer Bennett then explained t Justice May that the boy’s mothc had admitted to him that she had bet unable to get him to do anything ft a living. “The mother told me,” Benne said, “that she had to pull the he mattress from under him to get hi out of bed every day. Some time even that did not have any effect, ar then she had to resort to throwir cold water on him. She told me th he was the laziest boy she had ev seen.” Fruit ib Almond-Peach Combination The lmono • new fruit w’ ? combir ,s the luscious taste of th peach with the tang of the almond has been produced by Or.

KING 9 S new nrsenv-rr INCREASING EGG PRODUCTION Poultry Keepers Will Do Well to Keep in Touch With What Leader* I Are Doing. ;Prep«r»d by the United State* Department of Agriculture.) The methods favored Djr large poul ! yymen for Increasing the productivity »f their flocks are often applicable on i ihe general farm or in the b&ck-yard poultry plant. Every poultry keeper Will, therefore, do well to keep in Ijpuch with what the leaders are doing t* Increase their profits, says the (Jnited States Department of Agricul ture. Certain localities in California, for instance, have become famous for their poultry and egg production, and ■he study that Is given to these prob kif v H&raßvr 7 - Obtaining High-Class Breeding Stock Is Easier for the Small Poultryman When Sales Are Held. iems by farmers, and the owners of »ig plants, has resulted in a great Im provement in their practices. The county extension organization n Alameda county, California, has taken steps through its poultry divi lion to raise the standard of all poul try in the county by improving the fuality of fowls used in breeding locks. Owners of hatcheries in the county have entered into an agree ment with the county extension or ganization to use eggs for incubation ?rom selected breeding stock, exclud ug the incubation of eggs from the jeneral run of fowls in the locality, vitli the understanding that the coun :y extension organization shall fur dsh judges to pass on the desirability »f birds selected for breeding. This method of controlling the luality of the poultry in a county is apected to result in a rapid general approvement in the productivity ol he flocks. It should also give the minty a good reputation wherever latching eggs or birds are sold. Promising development that is being encouraged in the famous Petaluma poultry district is the consignment ale of cockerels. In this the poultry .feeders have been following the lead sf other growers of high-class live •tock. Cattle breeders have been iolding bull sales for a number ot rears; sheep breeders have ram sales; log breeders have sales of boars and ft bred sows. In the case of cockerels AO pedigree papers are supplied, as hey are with other kinds of purebred ive stock, but sworn- affidavits as to weeding go with each bird. A White Leghorn cockerel sale was »eld in Sonoma county (the Petaluma llstrlct) October 15. The 14 Pacific oast breeders who consigned birds jave sworn statements as - to their weeding. According to the county ■.gent, who was instrumental in put ing on this sale, most of the 52 •ockerels consigned represented un iieually high breeding, many of them laving pedigrees extending back eight ir nine generations with trap-nest rec aps. Most of them had inheritance vcflrds of more than 275 eggs in a *ear and some more than 300. The ket that 1,000 catalogues were issued ■hows the importance given to the tost sale of this kind. These two methods of flock improve ment ought to he popular among poul try raisers in all parts of the country. ti>ey anr practical, say the pouJtry aen of tke United States Department Agriculture, and they help to make food stock available to the average poultry raiser who in the past has had to assurance, other than the breeder’s rord, that he was getting birds of superior performance merit. Few lairymen, hog growers or beef-cattle misers are also good live-stock breed ts, but methods have been developed bat make it possible for any good mnner to buiid up an excellent herd. 4 should be just as easy for a poultry miser to improve his flock. •REVENT SPREAD OF DISEASE and Otner Contagious Ailments Are Difficult t* Control—Sep arate Sick 3irds.

Far rell, at Haw River, on Chatham ! County fifty years ago. A subscrib er, who delighted in reading the arti cle, has given u$ the following poem | on “Fifty Years Ago,” and we glad ly publish it: i I’ve wandered to the village, Tom, and sat beneath the tree Where in our youthful days we hatch er all forms of deviltry. t But few were left to greet me, Tom, in that old town who knew • That you and I were tough nuts there some fifty years ago. | The old schoolhouse has altered some; there is no water pail; The old tin drinking cup is gone which 1 hung upon the nail. : They learned that germs were preval ent and put the cup away, And now they sterilize the slate and pencils every day. The spring that bubbled neath the hill was analyzed and found Quite rich in certain properties, and some one leased the ground. And now the sick, the lame, the halt, and feeble are adjured To take a course of treatment and go home completely cured. Near by that spring some hustling chap who thot to make his mark . Has bought a little acreage and dub bed it “City Park.” He set it out to shrubs and flowers and started up a “zoo,” And here is where the pretty girls and fellows walk and *woo. My lids have been long dry, dear Tom, but tears come to my eyes, Whene’er I look , around and see such hustling enterprise. The little town has changed so much that you would scarcely know That you and I ran barefoot there some fifty years ago. SLATS’ DIARY. Friday—Pa got mad at the clerk down to the store today. He weiu to by his self a new Straw hat and af ter he finely found 1 whicth looked farely decent he handed it to the clek and sed I guess this 1 will do. The clerk sed Well theys no use rapping it up you mite as well ware it rite away and leave fokes go a head and get their lass over witn rite now & laffed as he sed it. Saturday—They was a man at are house today and Ant Emmy ast him where did he live and he sed at South Bend and Ant Emmy sed Why is South Bend a town 1 all ways thot all the time it was a curve in the pike somewheres. Sunday—Jakes ma woodn’t send him to Sunday skool today on acct. the lesson was about Job. She sed the Bible says Job cussed the day he was horned and she diddent hardly beleave ennybody cud of lernt to tawk that quick in life. Monday—l guess we will have a nother wedding here in the neiborhood soon in the future. They is a fellow comes to see a girl acrost the St. and every time he shows up she gives him a good feed and pa says she has got him • 1-2 marryed all reddy. Tuesday—The U. S. Statistix says that they are a ottomobeel for ever 1 and 1-2 people in the U. S. Pa says he gess he is the 1-2 person then because after looking over our 2nd nand ford he dissided we only got 1-2 a machine enny more. Wednesday—The preacher walked past our house on the way to prayer meeting to chat and tawk a little wile. Pa ast him what kind of time they was haveing at prayer meeting now and he replyed and sed Well me and the janitor has a very nice time. Usually., Thursday—Well me and pa played a lot of checkers tonite. Ma sed she .vood run o’ver to Mrs. Gillems for a minit, so we had the whole evening :o ore self. And made good use of -t. Goldston, N. C., Dec. 15. THE HOME PAPER IN VERSE Today, so far as appearance goes, ;he chief difference between the coun try paper and the city paper is in size. The country paper being in the main a local paper, does not need the space that the city daily requires tor its general news and features. But today the country papers make ase of many of the same typographi cal devices and pictures that tne city paper uses. This word is needed to introduce a fine little poem by an un known writer, who speaks of the old er type of country weekly which too often was poorly printed and edited: Tisn’t filled with cuts and pictures nor the latest news dispatches. And the paper’s often dampene and the nrint sometimes blurr d There is only one edition, and the eye’s glance often catches No cablegram or special anywhere the eye engages; The makeup is perhaps a trifle crudd and primitive, • But an atmosphere of home life fills and permeates the pages Os the little country paper, printed where you used to live. How the heart grows soft and tender while its columns you’re perusing Every item is familiar, every name you know full well, And a flood of recollection passes o’er you while you’re musing On the past, and weaves about you an imaginative spell. You can see the old home village once again in fancy, seeming To be clasping hand of neighbor, and of friend and relative; And their faces rice beiore you as O’. y .°i- U fondly dreaming O er the little country paper printed where you used to live.

Easter’s new hope arises from a gravel The exuberant promises of spring always do come from previous burials. But spring always is the season of hope and promise, of a rising in great er richness and beauty than was the sowing. Our disappointments, our losses, our hardships, were sown,, buried. There let them lie I Let Hope arise, let the dead past give rise to a brighter present and future. Help on the promises of the verdant ! spring with new vigor, new life, new cheerfulness. We can do much by cheery speech, by cheerful faces, by happiness in work, by trust in the future, to bring on the good times we are always looking forward to. Keep smiling, keep keen and fresh, keep busy, forget the dead past, trust the future, that is the lesson of spring, and of the Easter hope! Worlds’ Most Sacred Shrine.

THE LILIES OP THE FIELD When I went up to Nazareth— A pilgrim of the spring— When I went up to Nazareth The earth was blossoming! I saw the blue flower of the flax Beside a shepherd’s fold! Along the hillsides’ stony tracks I found the marigold! The iris raised a shimmering spiro Os beauty at my feet! The poppy was a cup of fire Among the cooling wheat! When I went up to Nazareth I marked how time came down With blighting dust and withering breath Upon the hallowed town' The years that buried Babylon Were drifting to efface The steps of Mary’s Heavenly Son, His dwelling and his race' But still 1 read his permanence —By signs that never dim; With all their ancient eloquence The lilies spoke of Him! —Youth’s Companion .
