The other day q well to do German

ways makes dem look purity. Ven
my grandmother died my water he
bought my sisters nice plack velvet
and silk Dresses and golf shanes " hich
they put init der necks rount, and dey
looked nishe, dells you, and We had
lots Of funs."
Pretty soon the well-dressed wo-
mems edged up to the old gentleman,
and he complimented them on their
good looks, fine dresses, golf shains,
ETC., and told the story to them of how
his water had bought elk and velvet
dresses for his sisters ON the funeral
occasion of his grandmother, and how
much fun they had. This brough,
down the house and q lot Of young
gamins joined in . general guffaw
that followed. The old gentleman
was much surprised and after the
women left inquired the cause Of &C
much mirth. "Oh," said the clerk
"they are fast women |"
"Vots dat?"
ooh! women of the town."
"Mein Got! Ish dot 80 2" and pull
ling his hat down over his eyes, HI

The Outlook.

1t does not appear that prices OF
farm produce-and we include in
this meat-producing animals-will
advance in price during the present
season. The constant anticipation
that renewed war movements were
at least quite possible, have prevented
prices receding as they otherwise
have done. But now that peace is
declared, prices must settle down TO
the absolute wants of the consumer
from day to day. These wants are
tinged and clouded by the pressure
Of the times, which means that very
many who formerly bought meats for
use twice daily, and coffee, tea, ETC.,
at pleasure, now buy sparingly be-
cause they cannot buy literally.
The cry of over-production has
been raised, but what else can q far
mer Dc but to run his farm to its full
capacity and store the product?
Wheat, corn, oats, etc., will keep,
and il we'll stored, it cannot happen
that any farmer can grow too much
of these grains, because seasons of
scarcity and extraordinary demand
are sure to come. The present season
has yielded heavily of all farm pro-
ducts, and the farmer is wise who
will now begin to.provide storage
secure against wet and vermin. II
grain cannot be sold at living prices,
it's possession, well secured to keep,
will give the possessor credit with his
merchant, and all others of whom ne
has occasion to ask fay0rs.
If prices Of grain remain low, it
should stimulate farmers to feed
growing stock literally, and this term
growing has q wide range, taking in
steers and hogs of all ages usually fed
up to turn off at the usual periods for
marketing. As q rule, low priced
grains bring better return when fed
out upon q farm than if sold in the
crude state, and the advantages to
the farm Of retaining the manure
where needed, is one of the perma-
nent helps that no prudent man will
treat lightly. Your low priced grain
will add substantially to your pres
emit income when fed out, and the re-
fuse of this will, If properly saved
and distributed, make your crops re-
joice in future years.-Iosca Farmer.
