Thou must not look so much at the evil that is nigh, but rather at that which stands ready to pity and help and which hath pitied and helped thy distressed soul, and will pity and help it again. Why is there a mercy-seat, but for the sinner to look toward In time of need? Bo patient till the Lord's tender mery and love visit thee again; and then, look up to him against this and such like snares, which would come between thee and the appearance of the Lord's love; that thou mayest feel more of his abid tngs with thee, and of the sweet ef fects thereof. For these things are not to destroy thee, but to teach thee wis dom; which the Lord Is able, through many exercises and sore trials, to be stow upon thee; that thy heart may be rid of all that burdeneth, and filled with all it rightly desires after, in the proper season and goodness of the Lord; to whose wise ordering and ten der mercy I commit thee.

Physicians know that drugs will not correct the evils caused by coffee and that the only remedy is to stop drink ing it. An Arkansas doctor says: "I was a coffee drinker for many years and often thought that I could not do without it, but after years of suffering with our national malady, dyspepsia, I attributed It to the drink ing of coffee, and after some thought, determined to use Postum for my morning drink. "I had the Postum made carefully according to directions on the pkg. and found It just suited my taste. "At first I used it only for breakfast, but J. found myself getting so much better, that I had it at all meals, and I am pleased to say that I have been re lieved of Indigestion. I gained 19 pounds in 4 months and my general health is greatly improved. "I must tell you of a young lady in Illinois. She had been in ill health for many years, the vital forces low, with but little pain. I wrote her of the good that Postum did me and advised her to try it. "At the end of the year, she wrote me that she had gained 40 pounds in weight and felt like herself again." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Well ville," In pkgs. Postum comes In two forms: Regular Postum must be well boiled. 15c and 25c packages. Instant Postum is a soluble powder. A teaspocjful dissolves quickly In a cup cr not water and, with cream and sugar, makes a delicious beverage In stantly. 30c and 50c tins. The cost per cup of both, kinds Is about the same.

Farmer Will Find It Profitable to De vote Small Patch of Land to Vege tables Location Should Be Near the Home. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) If the value of the homo garden were to be estimated in money alone it is safe to say that the returns from a email plot of land devoted to this purpose would be from eight to ten j times greater than the value of the cotton which could be raised on the same area. Many southern farmers will refuse to believe this. It, is, how ever, a fact that experts in agriculture have thoroughly demonstrated. For several years past, canning-club girls have made annual net profits of from twenty to fifty dollars on gardens only one-tenth of an acre in extent, and in Alabama this year products worth $700 were raised on seven-tenths of an acre. The usefulness of the gar den, however, cannot be measured in money alone, and no man can afford to ignore the important part that an ade quate supply of fresh vegetables plays In preserving the health of his fam ily. It Is obvious that when a man buys vegetables he not only pays for the cost of production, but for the cost of transportation and marketing. He obtains, however, an inferior article. Many vegetables lose their character istic flavor within a few hours, and none are so free from the danger of Infection or so palatable as those which are grown at home. In practice, however, if the farmer does not grow his own vegetables it means that in a great majority of cases his family gets no vegetables at all. One result of this is a demand for tonics and other medicines in the spring, for It is a well-known fact that vegetables and fruits furnish many ingredients abso lutely essential to human health. Where a monotonous winter diet fails to supply these Ingredients, the Hu man system suffers and recourse is had to medicine. For reasons both of health and money, therefore, the farmer will find at- Two Canning-Club Girls Hoeing Tomatoes. It profitable to devote to his home garden the small -amount of land and the small amount of labor that it re quires. The amount of land depends, of course, upon the size of the family. In a majority of cases, however, from one-fourth to one-half of an acre will be found sufficient to produce an ade quate supply of vegetables throughout the entire year. Close attention must, of course, be paid to the rotation and succession of crops, the planting planned with forethought, and the cul tivation done as carefully as that of any field crop. No specific arrange ment can be laid down that would suit all requirements, and each grower must devise plans to meet his own conditions. In this he is strongly urged to seek the assistance which county agents, state agricultural ex periment stations, and the federal de partment of agriculture can give him. There are, however, certain funda mental principles which apply equally to all gardens. The garden should al- Products From a Texas Garden. ways be located as close to the house as good ground can be secured. This means that the garden can be cared for at odd moments, when it would be neglected if it were at an iacon- venlent distance. The vegetables ihould be planted In long rows in or- der to make cultivation with ordinary horse implements possible. A slope to the south or southeast is desirable, because the ground warms easily In the spring and early planting is thus made possible. Good drainage is however, a factor of greater import ance. The land 3hould have sufficient fall to drain off surplus water, but not sufficient to wash the soil. If all the ground around the house is level and artificial drainage by open ditches or tile drains is not resorted to, planting should be done on ridges or beds to prevent the drowning of the crops dur ing wet weather. Thorough preparation of the soil by plowing, harrowing, rolling or drag ging will ultimately prove a saving of labor by lessening the work of cul tivation. A deep soil is desirable, but the depth should be increased gradu ally. Barnyard or stable manure is the best fertilizer, because it furnishes both plant food and humus. It should be applied far enough in advance of planting time to allow it to decay. If it is available, twenty to thirty tons of manure to an acre will prove very satisfactory. If this cannot be se- cured, some leguminous' crop such as cowpeas, soy beans, or crimson clover should be turned under to supply hu mus and part of the necessary nitro gen. Finally, additional fertilizing ele ments can be applied in the form oi commercial fertilizers. These, how ever, are expensive and it is one ob ject of diversified farming to enable the farmer to economize in their use. On farms which maintain an adequate supply of live stock, and where atten tion is paid to the enriching of the soil by leguminous crops, this should not be needed, at least in large quan tities. The vegetables that the farmer will grow in his garden depend naturally upon local conditions and the family's own preference. Asparagus, however, should be included wherever it will thrive. This is one of the earliest vegetables and will prove a valuable addition to the spring diet. The roots may be planted in the fall or early spring. After the bed is well estab lished, it should last indefinitely, and for this reason the location of the bed should be very carefully considered beforehand. Beans are another vegetable which should always be included. The first planting should be made as soon as the ground is reasonably warm, and this should be followed by others at intervals oa ten days or two weeks, until the hot weather sets in. Cab bage is also desirable, because it is economical in the use of land and may be sown through a large part of the year. For spring and early summer, good varieties are the Jersey Wake field, Charleston Wakefield, All Head Early and Succession. In most sec tions ot the South it will hardly pay to attempt to grow cabbage during midsummer, but a fall crop as well as a spring crop should be grown. Cauli flower is generally regarded as a greater delicacy, but it is not so hardy as cabbage. For further information on these and similar vegetables such as celery, lettuce, cucumbers, egg plant, etc., the prospective gardener should apply to his state experiment station or to the division of publica tions of the U. S. department of agri culture for the various farmers' bul letins on these subjects. Although, as has already been said, the choice of vegetables to be grown in the garden must be determined by individual tastes and circumstances, spinach should not be omitted. This can be grown in the open throughout the fall and winter all along the coast south from Norfolk, Va., and inland through the lower tier of southern states, in the colder regions, a little protection may be necessary during the severest weather, but two or three inches of hay, straw or leaves will usu ally be found sufficient Seed planted in the autumn will furnish greens throughout the winter and early spring. Spinach should be sown in drills twelve to fifteen inches apart, at the rate of one ounce to 100 feet of row. For the average family, three or four ounces of seed will be found sufficient. In an article of this kind, however, It is obviously impossible even to name all the products that a garden may be made to yield. The farmer who has hitherto neglected the possi bilities of a half acre or so devrted to the purpose should begin with the simpler and most useful vegetables and gradually increase the variety' in his garden as his experience and knowledge of vegetable growing grows. No mention has been made in this article of potatoes, for their impor tance in the family diet entitles them to an article to themselves, which will follow shortly. Sell Unprofitable Fowls.
