BREAK OF DAY.

Cruel white waves in sad under-tone
Break at my feet with dcsolate moan,
Far in the distance rs eye can reach,
ONLY long strip Of sandy beach,
backward and forward, to lett, 10 right
Rlacker the darkness upon the night.
Rugged and silent the mountains loom,
pitilesS shadow OF coming doom
Is there no herald Of coming day
Over the ocean so cold and grayr
Waiting, watch on the shore in vain;
Fast throbs my heart with il, bitter pain.
Turn from the desOlatc moaning sea;
1T hath no part IN thy life or thee.
Dreary the path where flowers bloom
BIZ rugged shore through the mountain gloom.
Thine is the burden; with weary feet,
Brave, not despairing, thy Fate go meet
From pain no longer a coward shrink;
Though the cup is bitter, thy lips must drink.
Earthward no more turn thy fearful gaze
VINO works in earnest, in earnest prays.
The rough road thOn wouldst fain forget
Upward and onward the end Is not yet.
10, the mountains crown on the ebony night,
CLOVIS with a glory OF rosy light
Dark j. the valley; the sea IS gray;
But the hilltop burns, the beacon OF day.
A .irey shaft from the golden east
EnkindIes the altar where God is Priest.
Rosy lights creep down the mountaiu-side,
Flushing the slow heaving swelling tide,
Rainbow Of promise high overhead
Tells of Day coming with silent tread
Slowly the curtain Of night is furled:
softly tse Light Of God blesses the world.
Through the sbimmering gold Of breaking day
A white-wInged sail is speeding it, way.
An, blessed Day, full Of hope newborn
That brings my Love in its happy dawn,
Shine out in the sky o glorious sun,
The end is not yet Life has just begun.

food to keep them 50. Buckwheat and
wheat are the best grains, although for
variety other grains must be given
Give cooked food in various ways every
day. Mush is excellent, as also fresh
meat and scraps from the kitchen. Two
or three times week give fresh bones
and ground bones, with gravel and
broken oyster shells, always within
reach. Apples, cabbages, turnips and
onions, raw or cooked, will be relished.
The later in life a pullet commences to
lay the longer she will continue to lay,
and the greater will be the uniformity in
the size of her eggs. A good Houdan
hen will average from 100 to $50 eggs a
year; but to average that, flock must
have good care. Thick sour milk or
buttermilk is an excellent article of diet
through the heated season. The Hou-
dams are very prolific and will stand a
great deal of cold, but they must be kept
dry. The Plymouth Rocks are almost
constant layers and bear confinement
we'll. Their eggs are large and even in
size. Although their frame is not so
large as the Brahmas they are more
plump, and fatten readily.

Careless Farmers.

+ 1t is almost impossible for a careless
farmer to be prosperous. How often do
we hear OF some unexpected failure in
/ the commercial world? We look for the
cause of this disaster, and find that the
merchant was engaged in improbable
trade, or perhaps some faithless clerk has
robbed his master. The failure is due
to any one of dozen causes which prop
er oversight might have corrected.
When the merchant has realized the
ambitious dreams of his earlier mercan-
tile career, he neglects those habits of
business which insured his success, and
failure is the result. And it is the
same in any business or occupation. But
with an unsuccessful farmer, lack of sue
cess is still more directly traceable to
carelessness of the man himself. Care
lessness in farming is manifested in
many different ways, each seemingly I'M
important.
The careless farmer is careless of his
own personal appearance, Indifferent to
the wants of his family, and negligent
of his stock. Personally, he is deficient
III spirit and enterprise. As to his
family, it satisfies him if his wife does
all his hard drudgery, and asks few
favorS. His children must not care for
education, for society, to leave the farm,
or for anything except to wait upon his
pleasure. His crops are planted, cult
waited and harvested in a slipshod sort of
manner that leaves only a small margin
for profit. His stock is inferior, and he
loses few head from disease every
spring. His tools (if he has the improved
tOols) soon decay from exposure to the
elements and negligent use. He has less
stock, lighter crops, and more debts than
his more careful neighbor. Such a
farmer, however, does not continue con-
tracing debts and liabilities until he
can go no farther, and there is an extern
sive failure involving hundreds of other
business men, but he buys something that
he does not need (perhaps top buggy or
machine), or he hires some one to do
work that he could do himself. He has
not the money to pay down, and gives
his note, which is as good as cash. How
ever. when the note is due, his creditor
must wait few days, and this is repeated
so frequently, and always by asking more
days of grace, so that at last to secure
his debts and obtain credit he must mort
gage his stock, and chattel: mortgage is
followed by mortgage on his farm
There are very many other reasons why
a farmer should fail He may have been
unfortunate, perhaps he has lost some
stock from accident or disease. His
crops may have been light and growing
lighter. He may have occasionally sold
his stock or crops an unfavorable mar
ket. These are all apparent reasons for
failure, but back of all this is the man
himself.-Coantrg Gentleman.

keeOiUg Butter.

Farmers are certainly slovenly in max
ing and preserving butter, and much that
comes into the market is very inferior in
quality; but if a good, sweet, cleanly
article is purchased, it is often spoiled
by the conditions under which it is kept
by the purchaser. Butter is a substance
extremely sensitive to surrounding in
fiuences, and any odors in the vicinity
where it is stored are rapidly absorbed
even if it is in closed firkin. Great
complaint is often made by the pur-
chasers of the "gilt-edged' butter, pro.
duced from famous diaries in the vicinity
of this city, that the enormously high.
priced article is soon spoiled after delivery
to the customer. And no wonder. 1t is
often placed in an uncleanly ice-chest
along with cooked or uncooked fish meat
and other odorous bodies, and it soon
smells and tastes like the unsavory sub
stances with which it was associated. If
not placed in the ice chest, it is often
put in a cellar with deeomposing vegeta-
bles and meats, and hence the delicate
taste and odor are soon changed.
Great care must be used to preserve
butter and it will not do to trust it to
the Bridgets of the kitchen, who know
nothing and care for nothing. Those
fond of the delicate freshness and sweet
ness of the best butter should havea cool
place in the cellar, where it can be kept
apart from everything else. The wealthy
can furnish such a place with. a little
care and skill, and few are so poor that
they cannot contrive to keep butter
under better conditions than they do
