Angels.

fNNkNNoa
It's said that angels visits
Are few and far between"
But most men think that angels
They frequently have seen.
The happy little rosebuds
Around the parent stem.
Always think their mothers
Angels enough Tor them.
The young man thinks the maiden
So blushing, fresh and sweet.
Is Just "a much an angel
As he would care 10 meet.
The benedict has found one
To whom he's tied for life;
lie finds he got an angel
when he took wife.
The old man sees an angel
In his daughter dear,
when she kelps to smooth for him
Each declining year
lis shus all men see angels
II they are not blind,
Hut some see only good ones,
Some the other kind.

Spring is the proper season for
Matching turkeys, as they should have
as long period as possible during
which to grow. The turkey hen is the
best broodcr, though they are some
times Matched under hens. They re-
quirc careful attention when young,
as dampncss or sudden changes in
temperature is injurious, and owing
TO the rapidity with which they feath-
or, they must be fed regularly several
times day. Turkeys are great fora
gers, and are not contented in confinc-
mcnt. When Matched and cared for
by hens, however, they often enter the
poultry house when desiring to roost,
though naturally they prefer the trees.

GETTING RID OF FLIES.

Flies are just now worrying horses
and cattle most persistently. No ami
NAL exposed TO them can thrive or do
well. The owner hears them strug-
Cling with their tormentors all night
long, and may be oxasperatcd at their
rcstlessncss. He does not know that
the tired beasts are tormentcd by n
vicious, biting fly, which gives them
no rest. This fly is supposed to be the
harmless house fly, and one wonders
how they learn 10 bite so sharply as
they do ones ankles while one is walk
ing, This 1y is true blood-sucker
with sharp, lancct-formed proboscis.
Ii is almost exactly like a house fly
except in its biting organs, for house
fly is a sucker, or rather it laps its food
with its tongue, formed like comb
or one side of feather. The stable
fly, on the contrary, is most pestif.
crous enemy of horses and cattle, and
its character should be known so that
its attacks may be avertcd. We have
found cleanliness and pure air i'm the
stables of great service. Wire gauze
i'm the windows, which must be kept
open all night, is also very useful.
But the best remedy is Persian insect
powder, by which the stable may be
wholly cleared at night, and then if
the entrance of a fresh crowd is pre-
vented the animals may sleep in peace.
This powder is fine yellow dust, and
when scattered through the air of
stable floats and spreads all through
il, and kills every fly. In our dairy
the last three summers this powder
has been found of great value, giving
the cows a peaceful rest at night and
securing peace and comfort at milking
time. Its cost will be repaid many
times over in the better condition of
the horses and in the better quality
and yield of the milk and butter

A Canadian farmer had thirty BUSH
els of beans which were put in by n
seed drill. by leaving out the tubes
the drills have been run thirty inches
apart, which is just the right distance
for cultivating with scufiier. As
many beans can thus be put in in a
day as any other grain, which is a
great advantage over The old system
Of Manipulating.

FAIRS.

The Troy Times SAYS that the pres
ent system of fairs and cattle shows
originated with Elkanah Watson, IN
Albany merchant, about 1910. His
application TO Boston for guarantee
funds was met by ex-President Adams
with terse rebuff: "You will get no
aid from Boston. Commerce, litera-
turc, theology, medicine, the univers-
ity, and university politics, are all
against you. Nevertheless, the more
liberal legislature of New York, in 1919,
appropriated $4,000 a year for six
years, TO he divided among its coun-
ties for the encouragement of agricul-
ture and manufactures. In 1918, sew
cral months before the passage of this
act, several of the most prominent cit
izens of Washington county met in
the courthouse at Sandy Hill and or
ganized a county agricultural society.
The first reported fair was held at Sa-
lem in 1922, with entries for prem
iums, a blowing match, "plowmen in
white frocks," aud an address deliver
cd in the church. Fairs on less scale
had been held every year before this
in Argyle, Hebron, Greenwich, Gran
vile, Whitehall and Kingsbury. The
prizes were small and records scanty.
The awards numbered scarcely 100.
Another paper says that the new
ideas gathored-wc might say har-
vestcd-at the annual exhibitions are
good seeds that often fall on rich
ground, and spring up to the honor of
all who have aided in making the fair
asuccess. The agricultural exhibitions
have laid the foundation of social and
esthctic improvement, which Is mani-
fest In every home whose inmates ere
leaders In the various departments Of
the town and county fair. Il is hoped
that no opportunity has been lost TO

Western corn-growcrs persist in
planting corn after corn. The result
is that they have bred worm which
eats the roots and which lives in .he
ground from year to year. As il is
not migratory its existence depends
on having corn planted on the same
field in succession. Good husbandry,
which demands rotation of crops, will
therefore rid farmers of this pest.

the House, however, emitting the usual
night session. Little business was trans
acted, as most Of the day was devoted to
discussion. In the Senate the Legislative
appropriation bill provoked the same old
school fund fight, and the bill to increase
the tax levy was also briefly considered,
and the joint resolution transferring the
Shenandoah river to the National Govern
ment was passed. The House had up the
proposed changes in the pharmacy law, the
school.fund affair and other matters in
connection with the appropriations.

AIiauor Law Decision,

A recent decision Of the Supreme Court
Of Arkansas was as follows: The appellant
wis convicted on an Indictment for selling
liquor without license. 1t was proved
that bottle Of brandy peaches was sold
That the bottle contained six peaches sur.
rounded by about u gill OF syrup that tasted
like strong liquor, but was very weak, and
would intoxicate should one imbibe
enough. 1t was held that the case did moi
fall within either the spirit or letter Of the
law, as it would have been had the defen
dant put few cherries or peaches in @
bottle OF brandy to eyade the payment Of
license.
