brought me $3,384.43. If it had not

TEACH the boy to do things !
WELL 1
I
I know a farmer father who makes
1 an especia 1 effort to see that every
I thing his son loes is done well. When
plowing, a straight furrow is insist¬
ed on; if a job is difficult, all the
1 more reason why a thorough finish
of it is expected. It is expected of
this boy, and he^knows full well it is
I expected of him, that every iiorse’s
, adjusted, that
: harness be properly
the ends of rows be plowed closely
up to the fence, aml that every
•stump be carefully hoed around.
i Not only is this youngster taught
1 thoroughness, but dogged illustration persistence of
as well, and as an
how he is acquiring this trait, a re
cent experience will serve. Some hogs
had got in the field by ace dent one
morning and he with his dog was
given the job of getting them out.
The hogs proved pig-headed, as they
very often do, and it took the boy
from early in the morning until three
o’clock in the afternoon to get them
ou t; but he stayed with them, doing
without his dinner until the job was
done.
Anything worth doing is worth do
mg right and I hope every Progres
sive Farmer dad is teaching his boys
tVioroughness, accuracy, and dogged
persistence, These qualities, along
w ith honesty and common sense,
make successful men, wherever
they are and whatever they be.—

A SUCCESSFUL SWEET POTATO
STORAGE HOUSE
When 1 hear on all sides hardluck
stories of the biggest part of sweet
potato crops being lost through care
| Dss handling and improper banking,
1 want to hand on my potato storage
house experience for the benefit ot
the other fellow.
For five years now, we have used
a small storage house built according
to the plans in the government bulle¬
tin on sweet potato storage. It is a
12 by 16 foot house, eight feet in
height and has a cement floor. Ev
cry effort was made to build the
house snug and tight. The walls have
storm sheathing nailed to the stud
ding and tarred paper applied to this
The outside is weather boarded and
the inside is closely ceiled. It has a
double window and a double door. In
addition there is an extra, out-swing
ing door made with wire
in the upper halt. In the center
the roof there is a slatted ventilate,
Shelves built four deep are
ranged on either side so as to
! an aisle ’ ‘ down the middle of
bouse. l'be shelves are not set
the wall but have an
left on all sides. We have stout
home-made crates built to use on the
At harvest time, the potatoes are
assorted, graded and put in these
crates right in the field. In all the
processes, harvesting, hauling, stor
j n g, the potatoes are carefully hand
Jed. Bruises and decay come from
rough handling of the freshly dug
potatoes and this is what we strive
After the potatoes are stored, to
kiln dry them, we keep a little oil
heater running for two weeks. In
our snugly built house this is suffi
cient time to cure the potatoes per
fectly. Sometimes in extremely cold
weather, we run the beater a few
hours to keep the temperature even.
In our five years of experience
with this method of storage, we have
had practically no loss of potatoes,
Even the cut potatoes, after being
properly dried, keep 200 bushels, perfectly. Our^
house holds over so we
are enabled to store not only what is
needed for our own use, but also a
surplus which is disposed of at a good
profit in the late spring. Mrs. K.

SUNDAY SCHOOLS TOLD
TO USE ADVERTISING
By Herbert H. Smith.
Director Church Advertising Section,
Presbyterian Department of
Publicity.
New York.—Efforts are being
made by all Sunday schools of this
country and Canada to have over
flow attendance October 24, which
is International-Go-to-Sunday School
lay. The International Sunday School
association, in sending suggestions
:o state Sunday school secretaries
concerning observance of this day,
has suggested use of paid newspaper
advertising. paid
Proposed copy for two such
ads was included in the ideas sent the
state secretaries with the intention
that they in turn should pass on the
ideas to county organizations.
The Freemasons, of London, are
considering plans to rebuild the
Temple of Solomon at Jerusalem, in
commemoration of the expulsion of
the Turks.
The function of the churches is
not so much to promote any special
reforms as to create an atmosphere
in which the perpetuation of evil is
impossible.—Lloyd George.
DEMOCRATS ASKED

following message by Southern
papers: !
Duty of Southern Democrat* !
The Solid South along with the
of the country, and the Southern
along with other Ameri
have greatly profitted by the
and able Democratic adminis
of the last eight years. i
In the result of the present nation
election they are vitally interested.
interest in the presidential
while keen is not so active
that of the Northern, Eastern and
Western Democrats who are bearing
the burden of battles both in their )
and in the nation.
The Southern Democrats, however,
take an active part and not
be merely interested bystanders in
this great contest. It is to be hoped,
for the good of the Democratic par
ty and for the good of the nation and
for their own gojjd, that they con
tribute as largely as they can to the
Democratic campaign fund.
The Democrats are drawing their
money from the body of the people.
They cannot use some and will not
u,se others of the methods of raising
money adopted by the Republicans.
Each individual Democrat should
contribute his part to the compara¬
tively small amount of money need
to elect Governor Cox.

The Methodist Orphanage, of the
South Georgia Conference, located
in Macon, Ga. has been engaged in
the great work of saving helpless
orphan boys and girls for the past
forty-eight years.
THEREFORE:—Because its ben
efits are absolutely non-sectarian,
and because in these years hundreds
of the children have been placed in
good homes through the splendid
plans used for this purpose, and be¬
cause hundreds of others have been
fitted v, for lives of usefulness and
good citizenship, the Trustees of
this institution feel free to ask the
public, irrespective of denomination
al lines to contribute to the main¬
tenance of this splendid charity.
With ten buildings on the campus,
with ninety-two acres of land, this
property is now easily worth two
hundred thousand dollars.
For forty eight years this work has
been supported by the free will of¬
ferings of the people,
ONCE A YEAR the public are in¬
vited to help, and to this end, Sat¬
urday, Sept. 25th has been set apart
as Work Day for the Orphanage.
Will you give the results of one
day’s labor? Or whatever sum you
may feel free to give for the con
tinuance of this work that takes
children from every walk of life and
from every grade of society.
All contributions in provisions and
clothes will be sent to T. O. L AM
