AFTER MARRIAGES. .

-
Oh Meg you are hoavy-l'm tired
Go sit in the rocker, pray;
Your weight seems hundred and ninety,
W hen YOU plump down in that sort OF way
You had better be mending my coat sleeve
l'ye spoken about it before,
And | want to finish this novel,
And look oVor those bills ilom the store.
This dressing gown sets like the ID;
These slippers run down at tue heel
Strange, anything can never look decent:
| wish you coIld know how they toel.
W hats this bill nom Morgan's? Why,
surely
It's not for another new dress?
Look here l'll b1 bankrupt ere New Year,
Or yoHr store bills will have to grow loss.
Eight o'clock? Meg, sow ON this button
As soon as You finish that Sloeve;
leigh no I'm SO dedcodly sleepy.
iii pile oil to bed, / beheye.

JoHN was hired during the "cold snap
to dig "a grave for person who had de
parted from this world OF woe, and SO he
shuudercd his spade and trudged to the
the cemetery with an unwilling splIit.
Arriving at the cemetery, John perceived
the head OF sturdy Swede just visible
above the edge OF grave about complet-
ed. John advanced to the hole and en-
tered into conversation with the foreigner
from whom he learned that the grave
just completing would not be occupied at
once. Then the Swede went away, and
John sat down on the top Of baby 5
tombstone, rested his elbows on his knees
and his cheeks on his hands and meditat-
ed. He thought of the frost in the earth,
and Of the immense amount OF labor in
volved in Winter grave digging. Then
he left the cemetery and did not put in
body for the reception Of which in the
ground he was to have provided. When
the procession arrived, however he was
on hand, and very sedately conducted it
to the grave the Swede had dug, where
the body was deposited. John received
the So and hied him from the cemetery,
and all was peaceful in the neighOorhood
until the arrival OF the funeral procession
with the second body.-&. Louis

KANSAS STATE HORTICULTU-
RAJ SOCIETY.

RAJ SOCIETY.
The meeting of this society held at
Fort Scott last week was not largely at
tended but there were several points Of
practical benefit made plain.
Considerable interest was enlisted on
the subject of planting vineyards that
will not fail IN few years as the most
do. DR.. Stayman insisted that the soil
should be deeply treached and the rich
top sold put at the bottom according to
the sid system. There may be more in
this than some think since the new sys-
TEN of shallow preparation has been in
vogue. Try the deep trenching on a
small scale.
Another idea was that we usually
have too much moisture during the sea-
son of growth MAY, June and JULY and
not enough during the rest of the year.
To remedy this we must cultivate we'll
during the early summer and then
mulch during the rest of the year to
maintain the moisture. Some thought
that thorough cultivation was better
than mulching.
Another thought of Importance was
that trees are one great means by which
this state is to be made valuable. One
hundred and fifty-two acres of apple Or
chard of only common condition last
year yielded 1910 per acre.
NJ. E. Hudson, Master OF the State
Grange was present to solicit the aid of
the Society in conducting a State Fair
as the Grange had been the means of
organizing State Agricultural Society
for that purpose. The time and place
are not yet determined. So look out for
a State Fair even if the State Board of
Agriculture have dropped the matter.
There was a warm expression on the
subject which showed that there is now
of all times needed fair to encourage
and keep together the great interests OF
the State. The farmers need encourage.
ment and help in their work. 1t is not
purposed to pay big premiums nor to
strap those who attend the fair as is
usually done in every conceivable means
The loss of trees and plants during the
past year is known to all and the chief
cause was stated to be the drouth of
last summer and defoliation by locusts,
thereby weakening their vitality and
giving the cold dry winter chance to dry
them to death by freezing out what lit
tie sap was left in them last fall.
Reports of the condition of the fruit
crop from all over the State were various
in character. On the whole we are bet
ter of than many other states. A COM
munication from the Secretary Of the
Indiana Horticultural Society stated
that they had poor prospects there for
this year.
Flower culture received some atten-
tention. To keep the wind from blow
ing away light soil and small seeds be-
fore termination it was recommended to
cover with low box frame over which
is tackled screen Of mosquito netting or
other thin cloth.
A committee was ordered to present
a bill to the next Legislature forbidding
the Wholesale slaughter and shipment of
game birds from our State as they are
great helps in checking noxious insects.
We hope it may be done for by killing
and selling these birds we kill the goose
that laid the golden egg.
The next meeting will be at Manhat-
tan in December next.

In commenting on "saloon row.
in Humboldt last week, in which one
man had his head terribly mutilated, the
Union says: "In this connection we
would say that some persons are making
this city little too notorious for drunk.
eness and rufianism, and it must be
stopped. It is disgrace to our city and
ought not and will not be tolerated. We
trust that the Marshal will arrest every
intoxicated person. and then let them be
fined heavily. We believe in making
this place rather unhealthy for drunk
ards for they disturb the peace of the
city, and eventually they get so deprav-
ed that they don't care fig for the acts
of violence or ruffianism that they may
commit" Just so. And yet we pre-
sumo that there are in Humboldt, as
there are here and elsewhere, many good
citizens who believe dram shops essential
for the growth and prosperity of city.
