TAPS but Just before the signal he
would pile up his CRATE witliS anthracite
coal, and, lying prone before it on the
floor, would work away ut his lessons by
the glare Of the fire, which Scorched his
very brain, till late hour in the night
This. evident determination to succeed
not only aided his own efforts directly,
but impressed his instructors in his favor,
and he rose steadily year by year till we
used TO say, "If We lad to stay here an
other year old Jack would be ut the
head Of the class"
by the fourth year he attained posi-
ton in the first section, but his lower
standing during the early years in the
'coursc, and in drawing, French, and some.
other studies of lighter and more orn:l-
mental character, brought his average
below the point to which he had actually
attained by the end of our course.

Mr. Geo. II. Williamson, in Phillips

fact that the south offers a rich field for
the dairyman, whether in milk, butter
or cheese. the price of all these products
being always higher here than at the
north while it costs much less. 10 pro
ducc them. He adds:
Any town Of two thousand inhahi-
tants will supp"rt% a iirst-class milk
dairy, and the butter and cheese can
always be shipped to the best markets at
Il small cost. For a milk dairy, the
Ayshirc will provesmost profitable as the
improved breeds, and Il dairy can be
started in this way ut n small expense.
If dairying will pay, and pay a big profit,
under all disadvantages Of long north
crn winters, high priced labor and great
competition, it ought certainly to prove
profitable in the south, where there is
no competition whatever except in Il few
sections. There is no business, however,
which requires Il closer attention to all
