In its direct money value, and
in all its collateral and indirect
benefits, grass is worth more to
the world than all the cereal
crops combined. Its direct is
nothing in comparison to its in
direct value in the influence it
has in preserving The fertility of
our farms by its manural wealth
in all its forms. No man can
thrive on a farrilAno farm can
be self-supporting where grass
is wholly neglected. or advant-
age is not taken of stock raised
on other grass farms. The old
Belgian proverb is true-"No
grass, no cattle no cattle, no
manure; no manner, no crops. "
1t is supposed by many that
only such soil as is not fit for
cultivation in the cereals or roots
should be devoted to grass.
his is a mistake. We can af-
ford to take our best soils for
the production of this crop, and
this is the real plan of bringing
them up to the highest point Of
fertility.

IT'S Not.
By MABEL NEHEp-ru.

TITS not the bird OF brightest wing,
Whose songs the sweetest roll;
IT'S not the form of peerless grace, GEE
That claims the fairest soul.
Like dire Mokanna issilvery veil. saAfr
Tie grace that bends the knee, III
May hide, beneath its sheen, the shades
Our hearts would chill to see.
Ills not the star of brightest raw,
That claims the cslmest sphere;
IT'S not the face with sunniest smile;
Whose heart IS free fiOmcare. ftr
Flowers may decS the sweet green slvard,
While turks a grace below;
y smile may wreathe the lips, tho meath
The hearts tomb of Woe
rs not the fairest hope which proves
The blessing that we dream;
It's NOT the life ofsmocthest flow,
Who're work are what they seem.
Ali many are the hopes which prove,
False, fairy gold and leaves;
And many are the lives that show
owealth of garnered sheavest
And aye. 'tisnot the mellow songs,
We loved in Years ago,
Crhey greetus now in after DAYS,
Like strains from fairy Shore
Nor mystic dreams which 'goin awake
Old woes we've nigh forgot,
That us keener pain than do
The little worls-'Jis not. -

We rived there the beautiftIl summers,

But his lcet in the hills grew weary,
And, one Of the autumn ewes,

A bed Of the yellow leaves.
Sweetly his rale AIMS folded

As the light of inimerial beauty
Silently covered his face;
AMI when the arrows of sunset
Lodged in the iree-toI,s bright. -

Asleep by the gates of light. O.

says by this means he is able to
feed forty cows from land that

English farmers believe in "bon-

In the present somewhat de-
pressed conditioned our stock
growing interest, with the price
for beef cattle ruling quile low,
it seems not good economy to
keep a COW a whole yeer for
the sake of rearing calf; yet
this is the only use to which
thousands upon thousands of
COWS are put-untll they are, at
the last, made into beef them
selves. Not alone in Texas but
on many stock farms in Illinois,
Iowa, Kentucky and other
States, the cows, as a class, are
never MIXED save by the calves.

round of vegetables should be
produced in it. Those who |
have neglected making a gar
den, can still plant all kinds of |
vegetables and raise them TO
perfection, if they give them |
good care, No part of the farm
pays better. We hope every |
reader of the. lRwak Void
will see to it that he has gar
den that he viii take pleasure
