better way to reformi them than
to not notice them at all.
If the good pecpie will not no

It is my miissiol to reform

LIrrnE BOY.
"Dreamer" on Watermerons.
Brother-farmer,. l'et me beg of
you to oem-ber the children
whenyou o-toplant youri cropF,
and do't 1 onget to put in a
good-sized! melen patch, - eai
nuts, andi at Vew rows of pop
corn. Mliny times a melon,
patch at homei will keep the
boys out of. their neighkbor's:,
patch. Wattermelons are so'
easily raised, 1Y don't see why
every farmer dlbert have
enough for home use. Water
melons come in after the crops
are laid by, and. what a pleasure
it is to see them.. Take. a lus
clous, red-meated. molen andir go
'out under the shade of a ti- e
'and eat until they say, "I''mn so
full; I wish, mamma, yon' puti
off dinner awhile.;. for I haven't
1room for at right now.'"
I frequently hna townu peonIa '
ty that watermelonS are not I
ealthy, and they don't. want
iwir children to eat them. Per
aps they do cause sickness af ter i
yincg several (lays in the store
ud thumped and rolled and p
r s :d by every boy and negro
1at comies in. I wish all who
link them unhealthy could be
t my home and see them bring
i the day's supply while the
ew is still on. No doubt theyi
rould think that the boys were
ring to market with then.
Ve have a small family, and
[ cannot eat them) yet they
rill consume six or eight large
ielons a day. If we had them
[ buy I am inclined to
uess they would eat a little
earer the rind. All who eat of
ur melons say they are the bi
var. We only buy seed every
wo or th- e years.
Peanuts are another crop eas
ly raised, and all children like
hem. You can put a paiful in
he stove, after you are through
ooking supper. See how the
hildren will enjoy them, after
hey are through with their
essons.
Raise your popcorn and buy
