But there Is another story, alleged to
be true which tells of foolery little
worse than that. There was in the

SEASON Your Own Woop.-He that is
wise will procure his wood fuel in The
winter season when it is brought into town
on the snow. 1t is then more abundant
and cheaper. In order to have your wood
in the very best order, buy none other
than the green. Cord it up yourself in the
open air and exposed to the sun. It will
then season without becoming dozy, and
preserves more heating qualities thrice told
than when seasoned in the shade Of the
woods where cut. By mid summer. or
when in its dryest condition-when no re-
cent rains have fallen upon it, get it into
your wood house, and you will enjoy more
satisfaction from burning it, than almost
any wood you can purchase from dealers.
