i lit recti ' '
"Mrs. James W. McNeill and her
sifter, Miss Johnson, of Raleigh, were
at home' to a number of the married

In the contest Miss Johnson won the
prize and Mr. Bud Lewis captured the
booby prize. Elegant refreshments were
served, and altogether it was one of
th EH5t elaborate and charming func
tions of the season. May they often
return."

My old friend William H. Plumb of
Bangor, .N. Y., w ants me to tell him
what a farm is '.worth that gives, an
ahrfual income of $600, and what is the
value of -a cow that gives ,$15 net hi
imilk and butter a year. According t to
the system of . -farm book-keeping witn
which I have long vbeen familiar, this
$600 income means that there is. that
sum left ' after deducting the cost of
seeds, planting, cultivating, harvesting
and marketing the crops, paying wage1
of all the 'help, feeding the han'ds and
all the stock, clothing the family, paying
the taxes, , pew rent, tickets to the cir
cus, buying a new horse or two, repair
ing the carriages, wagons and imple
ments, expenditure for chewing tobacco,
smoking tobacco, pipes, a few gallons
of whiskey ' now and then, etc., world
without end. Such a farm is too valu
able to sell at' 4ny price. As for the
cow why, she-is worth, according to the
same system of book-keeping, a good
currying and three bran-mashes a day.
