The Keota Qowa) Eagle has Ut last
found Western man who is satis6ed
with fifty. acre farm. His name 10
Artemus Fisher, and ho lives one mile

tells the story Of his management and Of
his success as follows:
He keeps one team Of horses, three
6rst-class COWS. and nice little drove
Of the best hogs He milks his cows
for the creamery, and they made him
nearly 5000 last year; will perhaps DO
better this year. He will sell $500
worth Of hogs this year, and have thirty
stockers to keep over. He has $500
worth Of fax seed to soil has an abusd-
ance Of hay and grain to keep his stock
in frst-class condition during the COM
ing Winter. He keeps everything 10

hence he gets the best results with the
least possible feed. He keeps his stock
under cover, aud never allows any sRi-
NAL to shiver in the fence corners. Ho
has barn that is q model Of coaveR-
icncc and economy. It is snow-prssf
and az warm as the old kitcbeB. He
has first-class selection Of fruits--Rot
large orchard. bu. choice selection Of
the varieties that thrive aud bear the
best in this locality. Everything about
the farm bears marks Of intsIligeaee,
thrift and economy. Besides making
living for himself and the ''old lady"
he will sell at least $500 worth Of sinR
of his 6fty acres this year, end net be
exceeding former years either. There
is no rush or hurry about this msdsl
farm Everything goes OF quissly and
regularly. The expenses are very ss'all
aud the gains sure.

To Foretell the Weather

If tho sun sets in crimson clouds aud
rises brilliant, or il the stars are numer-
Gus aud bright, wo know that in a gen.
eral way we may safely reckon on a
duration Of tho weather
Dews and white morning fogs are
symptoms of clear days.
A dark and vapory sun, and sickly
looking moon with blunt horns, and a
circle around her or pallid, nonscintil-
lating stars, are all signs of approaching
rain.
If the sun comes up pale and then
turns red, or if the moon is large and
ruddy, with sharp, black horns we may
count on wind.
The chickweed is called "the poor
mans barometer" because it shuts its
flowers when wet is approaching.
The aurora borealis, when very bright,
forebodes spell of stormy, moist un-
settled weather.
A haze around the sun indicates rain
it is caused by fine rain or mist in the
upper regions of tho atmosphere.
A halo around the sun has often been
followed by heavy rains.
A halo around the moon is also an
indication of rain. The larger the halo
the nearer the wet spell.
Lack of dow is another rain sign.
Sharp white frosts in autumn and
winter preccdo damp weather, aud three
successive white frosts are sure and
infallible sign of rain.
Previous to rain the flies bite sharper
and stick to US closer, and bees remain
in the hive.
But few Of the many signs we have SO
briefly instanced only apply to tho i'm
mediate future and have nothing TO do
with the far-seeing prophets whose prog
nostications, also largely based upon
natural causes, peer into future months
nav, wears in advance.

THE PICTURE.

THE PICTURE.
A bit of lovely coast,
Dashed by foaming sea,
That he might see no more
In far-of Sicily.
A figure, dumb as death,
Prone on the yellow sand,
Beside his useless craft,
Shattered upon the strand
And n fair fisher girl,
Watching with sad, wild eye
The breakers seething foam
And dun, tempestuous sky.
Crouched on the broken bow,
The glare Of sky and sea
Shone on the sweet, dark face
And wild hair mourniully.
A simple picture hung
On the wainscoted wall,
And yet the proud mans heart
II held with solemn thrall.
His was the prostrate form
Lying upon the sand,
And his the true eyed girl
Who watched upon the strand.
He lived, but she, alas
In sea-isled Sicily
Slept in the lonely grave
Reside the moaning sea.
He broke her untaught heart
BY silence cold and long;
In vain would late remorse
Atone her grief and wrong
Nor wife nor child had he
To cheer his lonely Hall
Only that painted bit
Hung on the dreary wall.
