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 L popper. One night you can1 lave peanuts, the next night )opcern, the next honiem ade nolasses candy. What i they 10 muss up things a bit?
