HOUSE AND FARM.
Selecting Breeding Stock.

Most farmers send their earliest and
largest stock to market without regard to
their value, or probable value, for stock
purposes. This is mistake. The very
best Of the flock should be selected from all
the rest, and marked in some way SO as to
be preserved for future use as breeders.
Only the culls should be disposed Of in the
early part of the season. Such fowls

SLEEPS ELDER BROTHER.

The lady sleeps! Oh, may her sleep,
Which is enduring, so be deepl
Heaven have her in it's sacred keep!
This chamber changed for one more holy,
This bed for one more melancholy,
pray to God that she may lie
Forever with unopened eye,
While the dim sheeted ghosts go by!
MY love, she sleeps! Oh, may her sleep,
As it is lasting, so be deep!
Soft NAV the worms about her creep!
Far in the forest, dim and old,
For her may some tall vault unfold
Some vault that oft hath flung its black
. And winged pannels fluttering back,
Triumphant DER the crested pals
