A KIND WORD.
How little it coats if we give it a
thought, '
To make happy some heart each day,
Just one kind word, or a tender smile,
As we go on oar daily way.
Perhaps a look will suffice to clear
The frown from a neighbor's face,
And the press of a hand in sympathy,
A sorrowful tear efface.
It costs so little I wonder why,
We give so little thought,
A smile, kind words, a glance, a touch,
wnat magic witn them is wrought

JAMES E. WEST PAYS VISIT TO
ASHEVILLE.
Chief Scout Executive Met at South
Carolina by Patrol and Escorted
to City.
James E. West, of New York City,
chief executive of the national or-f
ganization of Boy Scouts of America,
spent several hours in Asheville Sun
day, during which time he was shown
over the city and at 12:30 he wal
tendered luncheon at the Kenilworth
Inn. The luncheon was an 11 coursa
affair, the serving so arranged by
Manager Roscoe Mervelfi that amplo
THERE have been many conjee 1
.tures as to what was contained
in the bowl of old King Cole.
Some say wine and others think not.
In all probability, it was sauerkraut.
For the effect of sauerkraut on the
.disposition is very similar to that of
the contents of the bowl on the king.
He is clearly described as "a merry
old soul." To be merry, one must be
healthy, and there is no food more
conducive to health than sauerkraut.
Its natural lsctic acid cleanses awl
disinfects the digestive tract from im
purities and toxins. Scientists place
it among the most valttsWe of pre-
-ventive and corrective foods. Sauer
kraut it cabbage in "its most easily
digested form It may well lie con
sidered the family tonic. And, now
that it comes in cans, sauerkraut

HAUL
OUR MANURE
DAYS.
ON DRY
Raleigh, N. C, Jan. 22. Either
haul out the manure and spread thin
ly on the fields planted to small
grain or let it stay in the stables
where it is packed down. Don't pila
it out in a corner of the lot where it
loses all of its nitrogen as ammonia
gas which escapes into the air.
"Any time during winter, when
the ground is dry enough, is a good
time to spread manure on small
grain," says m. V. tftair, extension
agronomist at State College. "This
is better than to pile the manure out
side of the barn. When piled loosely
and exposed to weather, the manure
is always damaged by certain bac-
teria which change the nitrogen to am
monia gas and this escapes into the
air. Much of the value of the may
nure is thus lost. Leaching also plays
a part in this loss of fertility."
Mr. Blair states that when manur
ia spread out on the field, there is
,a one pl for the destruc.
tive bacteria to become active. Rains
will leach out the nitrogen, but it is
carried info the soil where it is so
badly needed.
From the standpoint of the grow
ing crop, the spreading of manure in
winter is an excellent practice, states
Mr. Blair. Even a light application
will form a blanket that protects tho
young plans from cold. The value
of the manure as a source of nitroi
gent is well known, but there is am
ether point which should be remem
bered if clover is to be Bowed on the
grain the following spring, manure
applied in winter will neutralize some
of the adds in the soil making it a
better place for the clover. This fea
ture is especially valuable on land no1,
limed. In fact, Mr. Blair states that
manure acts somewhate like lime and
its use has enabled many fanners to
grow clover on land where it wouldn't
catch before the manure was applied.
"If it is not convenient to haul out
;?1 iam
ness is assured, since the commercially
preserved product is nan lied wiih all
satirary pr cautions. The old-fash'
ioncd way of having the grocer flip
it out of a barrel left much to be
desired.
The regulation method of serving
sauerkraut inay be pleasantly varied
by combining it with other foods.
Delicious si'lads may be made by mix
intr canned atierkrr.ut with chopped
apples and celery; with canned pine
apple or grapefruit, marthmallows and
ntrtsi or with hard-boiled eggs and
stuffed olives. -
And here is a recipe for Sauer

Dear Madam:
Last week a customer came to see if we could match
some things she had bougnt from out of town.
She was doubly . surprised ; first, that we had the exact
same thing; second our price was lower than the people who
sent the catalog.
So many people seem to think that if a big city sends
out a catalog everything in it must be a bargain.
Some others seem to think it can't be bought here in
town. Now we don't carry as much as the bigger city stores
do, but we usually have a good assortment of most of the
things they carry. And often we save you money.
Next time suppose you shop around with us. We are
glad to help.
Yours truly,
DRY
