She has undergone hardship and has i forked cruelly hard, bat she and the
bays have bad excellent health, plenty
b eat and tbe promise of success. Last fall. .with no other help than tb boys and an old mule, sbe picked twenty-two bales of cotton, each weighing 500 pounds. Perhaps you do not realize how much bard, back breaking labor Is required to plant, cultivate arid harvest twentyseven acres of cotton. Yon do know, perhaps, that twentytwo bales of cotton are worth ln the neighborhood of $1,000. Besides the cash realised from the cofton. which money will buy mnny wvi'.forts. he ratted R0O bushels of com. vegetables for winter hse and sufilrtent forage for two mules and two cows for one year. This besides an excellent garden. Not much, you say. should you happen to own a big western farm Where you count your corn by tbe number of thousands of bushels, but to this family the success of their first year represents much. It represents the difference between a hand to mouth existence in a factory town and the vitiating influences that often go with It on the one hand and the sweet country air, wholesome surroundings and prosperity on the other. Under the tutelage of this wise mother her boys are likely te grow into sturdy men and good citizens, and if they are tbe right sort they will always hold their brave mother tn the highest honor.
