Do you know there’s lots of people
. Settin'round in every town, -
Growlin’ like a broody chicken,
Knockin’ every good thing down t
Don’t you be that kind o’ cattle,
’Cause they ain’t no use on earth;
You just be a booster rooster,
Crow and boost for all you’re worth.
If your town-needs boostin’, boost ’er;
Don’t hold back and wait to see
if some other fellow's willin’—
Sail right in, this countr’y free;
No one's got a mortgage on it,
it's just yours as much as his.
If your town is shy on boosters,
You get in the boostin’ biz;
If things just don't seem to suit you,
An’ the world seems kinder wrong,
What’s the matter with a boostin',
Just to help the thing along? -
’Cause if things should stop a-goin’,
We’d be in a sorry plight—
You just keep that horn a-blowin’.
Boost ’er up with all your might.
If you know some feller’s failin’s,
Just forget ’em, cause you know
That same feller’s gottsome good points—
Them’s the ones youwwant to show.
“Cast you loaves out on the waters,
They'll come back,” as a sayin’ true,
Maybe they’ll come back a buttered
When some feller boosts for you.

Houston, Texas, March 18.—The
rains of the week have set back plant-
ing to some extent, but generally they
were beneficial. The young petato
crop needed a rain and got a wetting
that will do for some time. Cattle
interests suffered to some extent, but
they are more concerned with the posi-
tion the Wilson administration will
take on the cattie tariff and importa-
tion of Mouth American beeves, than a
local rain of even several days duration.
Seed dealers in Houston report a
strong demand for all kinds of seeds.
The planting season is on in earnest
and the increased demand for certain
seed forecast a greater acreage in those
particular commodities. The corn and
cotton seed departments are experienc-
ing the greater rushes, while the
potato demand is subsiding as that
painting progresses.
Hundreds of Harris county farmers
are announcing for the competition for
prizes offered by the Houston Chamber
of Commerce for the best results.
^x^ndustrial Congress Data.
Less than thirty days remain in which
the farmers of the state may enter the
110,000 crop contest of the Texas In-
dustrial Congress. Boys and girls be-
tween the ages of ten and twenty years
may join the Texas Corn and Cotton
Clubs, by cultivating one acre of corn
or one acre of cotton, while those who
are twenty years of age or more may
compete for the prises offered for four-
acre model demonstration farms and
for forage crops both irrigated and un-
irrigated. By writing at once to the
Texas Industrial Congress at Dallas
fullparticulars and blanks for entering
the contest may be secured. Do it
today as after April 1st it will be too
late. ...

Co-operative Association—a national organisation of the fbremant pharmacists in the
farmers who will compete for 810,000
in gold offered for the best crop yields.
Ellis county, which stood first last
week, is now second with 331 contest*
ants and Jack county ranks third. Van
Zandt and Rusk counties are tied for
fourth place. Applications to enter
the contest must be mailed to the Texas
Industrial Congress at Dallas not
later than April firsts Over 4500 con-
testants from 185 counties have been
enrolled to date. . -a-

Old MacCrankle is a most vindic-
tive, as well as a miserly, old gentle-
man, and not even the season of
peace and goodwill had any softening
effect upon the grudge he harbored
against hte disinherited but prosper-
ous nephew, Jack, who had but a
street of houses for working people
In the neighborhood.
On Christmas eve the residents of
each house in the hew street were
simply dumbfounded to receive a visit-
from old MacCrankle, who was accom.
panted by a man with a hand-truck
loaded with fifteen-pound bags of
nuts. The nuts were particularly
large and hard-shelled Brazils and
walnuts.
“What, uncle! You giving Christ-
mas gifts! And to my tenants, too!
gasped Nephew Jack, who passed,
through the street during the distry/
button of the nuts "Nuts! An all
Brazils and walnuts! What big ones,
too! What an odd present, uncle!"
“A fancy of mine, nevvy," said old
Crankle, with a chuckle. , "An old
man's fancy."
"Tea, hee!" he chuckled, when he
reached home again. "Not one of
those forty tenants of Jack's has a
hut-cracker between them. They’ll
ruin all his brand-new doors! Ho,
ho, ho!”

Apples With Concrete Coras.
Charles Bauermetster, who has a
farm in Fairfield, near here, says he
is done with, up-to-date tree surgery.
Last fall one of his apple trees showed
signs of decay and, following direc-
tions in a farm journal, he plugged the
affected parts with concrete. The tree
thrived this spring, and today Bauer
melster picked several of the apples.
He bit into one, and cracked off his
best gold-mounted tooth on a hard
substance. .
! Examination revealed that the apple
had contained a hard piece of con-
crete, which Bauermeister believes
was absorbed from the trunk. Bayer
melster says all the other apples- ap-
pear to be similarly affected, an he
intends to feed them to his chickens
in the hde that the concrete they
contain will create hard-shell eggs for
the export trade.—Caldwell (N. J.)

Recently W. A. Morgan, the father
of W. Y. Morgan of Hutchinson, lost
the sight of one of his eyes. "While
I was at the hospital," says aptain
Morgan, "I did a lot of thinking about. -
how I could get along. supposing I
went, entirely blind. I wouldn’t be
able to read, just have to sit in dark-
ness all the time I was not asleep.
Then I figured that I would be nearly
helpless. I would have to get some-
body to lead me around wherever I
went. But supposing that I couldn’t
get anybody, what would I do then?
I remembered that I had seen blind
men who were led around by doge and
I commenced to speculate on how long
it would take me to train up a pup
to have sense nough to lead me —
around. And then suppose that it
. I” should spy a cat on the other side of
the avenue and take a sudden notion
to catch it. That would mean, that it
would lead me out into the street
where I probably would be run over
by an automobile or a street car. And
just when I had become desperate
somehow the situation seemed to get
ridiculous and I laughed. Now, I am
feeling pretty well again and I have
* one good lamp left. Of course it is
unhappy when some one comes up on
the blind side, but it beats no eyes at
all too bad to talk about So I have
a good deal to be thankful for. Any-
way, I am not certain that I have not
seen as much in my time as one man
cught to see.”—Kansas City Journal.

. After reading the public statement
of this fellow-sufferer given below,
you must come to this conelusione A
remedy whioh proved so beneficial
years ago, with the kidneys can
naturally be expected to perform the
same work in similar cases. Read
this; / .
Alexander Darnwell, R. F. D. No. 6,'
La Grange, Texas, says: ”I am well
pleased with the results obtained from
the use of Doan's Kidney Pills. I was
annoyed for some time by pain and
soreness across the email of my bak,
more noticeably in tbe.morning when
I arose. I was stiff and tired and often
scarcely able to lace my shoes. I
realized that my kidneys were out of
order, when the secretions became too
frequent in passage. I procured a box
of Doan’s Kidney Pills and I had not
finished tbs' contents before I felt
better in every way. My back is now
as strong as ever and my kidneys are
normal.” ’
The above statement was given July
29, 1905 and when Mr. Darnwell was
interviewed several years later, he
said: "I have had no trouble from my
back or kidneys since Doan’s Kidney
Pills cured me six years ago. I gladly
confirm my former public statement
given in their praise.* ,
