Begin to practiceN’ight now what you are preaching—
“economy."
Start a bank account.
Do it today.
Delay means loss.
You will never start earlier.
No time like now.
Giasp the opportunity.
Begin saving your money and depositing it in the bank.
It does not take much to start a bank account.
A bank account, however small It may lie at the be
ginning, will grow, and you will be surprised how it will
run up in a year's time.
We have seen it tried.
All large fortunes bad small beginnings.
With your money in your home you run the risk of be
ing robbed.
With it in your pocket you are tempted on every hand
to spend It.
With it iu the Bank of Dallas you will be protected
from robb, ry by burgular insurance.
With it iu the Bank of Dxllns, when you are tempted
to spend it, you will do without rather than go to the bank
and withdraw it.
.It adds to a man’s staurliug to have a bank account.
People look up to a man who draws checks to pay his ob
ligations. It gives him tone in the business weild and
helps his credit.
Parents, start a bank account for your little baby at
once. Deposit 60c to the credit of tbe little one, and ev- '
ery few days add to the little account in the hank t.’.o
price ofjialf a dozen cigars. You will marvel at tie
growth of the account. By the time the child is sixteen
years old you will have saved more than enough to send
him to college, or enough to start him in business. Start
the ebi'd right, Teach it to know the value of a dollar.
Open an account for it. ^
The Bank of Dallas makes a specialty of taking care ^
of money deposited. It lias thrown around its depositors <§>
every safeguajd kDotvn to the banking business. It even
t insures the money deposited—something unheard of until xC
recently.

W it’s officers are your people and comes to you today offer- ^
A ing to take care of your money, to lend you money at all ^
Ajs times on approved paper, and to offer you every courtesy

I never knew how well I loved
Tne little cot where I was born,
Until I stood beside the gate
One pleasant, early summer mom.
And listened to my mother's voice.
(the spoke such words as mothers speak—
Of cheer and hope—and all the while
The tear drops glistened on her cheek.
And soon she turned and plucked a rose
That grew bealde the cottage door,
And, smiling, pinned It to my coat,
As she had often done before,
1 wont away:’t-*M long ago—
Still ever, till my life shall close,
The dearest treasure I can know
Will be a faded little rose.
There is nothing in life’s ex
perience that so quickly and ef
fectually awakens in (he heart,
those better elemeuts that ally
us “to Angels and to Uod” as
the sacred memories of home.
This fact constitutes a positive
power in our lives, end growing
out of this fact, is the highest du
ty of life, the duty to make the
char-tcter of your home such that
its cherished memories shall be a
developing and gladening influ
ence through life.
O memory, be sweet to me—
Take, take all else at will,
Bo thou but leave me aafe and sound.
Without a token my heart to wound,
The little house on the hill.
Take all of best from cast to west,
So thou but leave me a tip ;
The chsml>er, where In the starry light
I used to lie awake at night
And list to the whip-poor-will.

Children.
A good man was Judge Eli, as
described in the Book Samuel,
but he let his two boys, Hophni
and Phinehas, do as they pleased,
and through overindulgence they
wenl to ruin. The blind old
Judge, ninety-eight years ot age,
is seated at the gate waiting for
the news of an important battle
in which his t wo sons were at the
front. An express is coining with
tidings from the battle. This
bling nonagenarian puts lus hand
behind his ear, and lis'ens, and
cries: “What meaneth the noise
of this tumult?” An excited
messenger, all out of breath with
the speed, said to him: “Our
army is defeated. The sacred
chest, called the Ark, is captured,
and your sons are dead on the
field.” No wonder the father
fainted andex[. ired. The domes
tic tragedy in which these two
sons were the tragedians had fin
ished its fifth and last act. “He
fell from off the seat backward
to the side of the gate, and his
neck broke, and he died; for he
was an old man, and heavy” Eli
had made an awful mistake in
regard to his children. The Bi
ble distinctly says: “His sons
made themselves vile and he re
strained them not,” Oh, the
10,000 mistakes of parents, mis
takes of teachers in day-school
and Sabbath classes, mistakes
we all make. Will it not be use
ful to consider them?
Homes of the Poor.
Homes of the poor! Sacred
shrines of earth where the alter
fires of genius have been light
ed. May the world forever be
blessed with a moderate want.
The human mind is never whole i
till it has suffered, and it is bet
ter than the angel of proverty
should mete out the required suf.
fering in the form of a perpetual
restraint, than that should burst,
like the thunderstorm from the
azure sky of luxury, darkening
with its clouds the sun of life.
The home of the poor man does
not nercersnrily mean a home of
suffering, save in that humilia
tion and restraint to which it is
necessary for all souls to be sub
jected in order to develop. The
poor man’s home need not be de
void of a certain degree of luxu
ry. Beautiful pictures and works
of art can no longer be monopo
lized by the rich, for the busy
brain of invention has brought
them within the reach of all.
The price of ten cents worth of
tobacco smoke saved each day for
•fifteen or twenty days will pur
chase a fine book. The very
poorest of men find no difficulty
in purchasing this amount of
tobacco smoke each day. Only
think how many days there are
in a life time. Three hundred
and thirteen working days in a
year at ten cents a day would
give $3.1.b0. Twenty years would
give $020.00, would purchase at
least five hundred volumes, a li
brary of which most men should
bo proud. What an inspiring
thought for a poor boy; the gist
of all literature purchased with
the little self-denial that it costs
to refrain from making bacon of
one’s self.
Young man! promise us that
as soon as you have read this
Homo Circle Department you
will begin to lay up ten cents a
day, and, if you will smoke ci
gars, then be a little more econo
mical in other things, and lay up
at least, five cents. You hate
your life before you, aud it would
soon be so natural for you to lay
by the small amounts daily, that
you would drop it from habit in
to your private treasury. Will
you Iry it during 1905 and reap
the harvest?
Does a young father who
wheels a baby coach feel that he
is in the push?
COTTON GROWERS TO MEET.
Pretldent Jordan Calls Convention in
January at New Orleans.
President Harvle Jordan makes the
announcement that the Southern Cot
ton Growers’ meeting In New Orleans,
Jan. 24, 25 and 20, Is for the purpose
of organizing and consolidating south,
ern agricultural associations into a
central body with a bureau of Infor
mation on the lines of the United
States department of agriculture. It
Is not Intended to discredit the gov
ernment bureau but to supplement its
infoimation.
“We propose to know as much about
tho business of the spinners as they do
about ours," said Mr. Jordan. “As
It is now, Jhey know everything about
us, and we are in the dark. Among
other things, it is our object to bring
about closer relations between the
manufacturer and producer, that tho
price may be fixed by the laws of sup-
F". end demand, and not by the specu.
lator.”
INQUIRIES ANSWERED

Agricultural Dep't.
Question—“Hon. O. B. Stevens, At
lanta, Ga.—Doar Sir: Can you give
me a good formula for composting
with stable and cow lot manure?"
In reply to the above we beg here
with to submit formulas for making
compost, which have been prepared by
the Statu CheiniBt, John M. McCand-
less:
In tho first place take 100 pound*
of quick lime and slake it with 159
pounds of kalnlt dissolved in hot wa
ter. Be sure to so proportion the
amount of water used as to slako
the lime to a powder, aud not have
a wet, sticky niasB. if you use too
much water you will have a sticky
mass and not a powder which can be
easily handled.
Your llmo should he slaked by a hot
solution of kalnit to a powder, which 1*
Just damp enough to handle comfort
ably. You have now an excellent and
perfect mixture of the lime with the
sulphate of potash and chloride of so
dium of the kalnlt The work should
be done at a point convenient and
close to where tho compost pile is to
be made.
The materials you will need to maka
a ton of compost acoordlng to my for-
mlua then are as follows:
Formula No. 1:
100 pounds quick lime,
150 pounds -of kalnlt,
250 pounds 14 per cent, acid phosphate,
200 pounds of cotton seed meal,
1,200 pounds of stable manure.
Formula No. 2:
100 pounds of quick lime, ‘
160 pounds of kainit,
250 pounds 14 per cent, acid phosphate,
400 polmds of green cotton seed,
1,000 pounds of stable manure.
You will observe that both these for
mulas add up 1,900 pounds, but as a
matter of fact, they will add up 2,000
pounds or more after the lime haa
been slaked with the hot solution ot
kainit, because the lime will absorb
and bold a largo amount of water la
a fixed condition.
Provide a placo under shelter fof
making the compost, as you cannot af*
ford to have the rains leach such a
valuable compost after it is made.
Method of Composting.
First, put down a layer of stable
manure well chopped and Tree from
lumps, about three Inches thick,
sprinkle over this a layer of cotton
seed meal, say one-elgth to one-quarter
of an inch thick, then moisten with
water until manure and meal are well
dampened; then sprikle on a layer ol
the slaked lime and kainit mixture
using your Judgment as to the thick
ness of the layer, so as to mnke your
materials come out about even. On
top of the potash sprinkle a layer o(
tho acid phosphate. On top of this
again pu ta layer of Htable manure,
aay, about two Inches thick, then cot
ton seed meal as before. Again moist
ening the layer of cotton seed meal
and manure until damp, then as befors
a layer of potash lime followed by acid
phosphate. Cotinue In this way until
the materials are all exhausted umJ
top all over with stable manure or rlcb
woods earth, say two inches thick. Al
low it to stand until thorough fermen
tation takes place, which should hi
from one to two months, according to
the temperature, moisture, etc.
The formula for the use of green cot
ton seed should he put up In precisely
the same way, except, of course, tin
layer of cotton seed will be thickt t
than the layer of meal. When the
cotton seed have been killed thorough
]y, cut down vertically with a sharp
hoe, mattock cr spade through the lay
ers, shaving off a thin slice at the time.
Pulverize and shovel into a heap and,
and allow the fermentation to go <.a
again for about ten days, when the
compost ought to be ready for use. Ap
ply liberally at the rate of four ot
five hundred pounds per acre. Such
a compost as this, made either with
cotton seed or cotton seed meal, ought
to analyze about—
2.25 per cent, available phosphoricacli
1.10 per cent ammonia,
1.25 per cent potash,
but Its results will beat its analysis.
