ayes, sir; this kind of work obliges man
TO keep sober as Judge. Of all men in the
world, steamboat pilots and railroad engin-
GERS should let liquor alone. For on their
clearness of sight aud GOODNESS Of head de-
pends the safety oflife and property"
Keeping his hand on the wheel as he said
this, Mr. A. Brockman, of No. 29i Silver
street, Chicago, added "Of course, some
of 'em drink but the sober ones have the
best positions and the best pay. Yes, the
work and exposure sometimes tells on US
but for my part, find PARKER's TONIC to
be all the invigorant need. I've got bot
tie aboard here now never 80 on trip
without it. When l haven't any appetite, or
am in any way out Of sorts, it sets me up IN
no time. If drinking men would use the
Tonic, it would help 'em to break on. (No,
that isn't lighthouse; it's 8 star, low down
near the water.) AsI was saying, the Tonic
is new life bottled up. You see that Hag-
staff :? Well, with a bottle of PARKER's
Tonic in the locker can keep malaria as
far from me as that, all the time. Ny wife
has used it for three years for summer COM

She's tired out from overwork, She says the
Tonic is daisy. Goodbye! Don't break

PARKER's GINGER Tonic. will hereafter be
advertised and sold simply under the name
of PARKsR's Tonic. AS unprincip!ed dcsl-
ers are constantly deceiying their customers
by substituting inferior articles under the
name of ginger, aud as ginger is really an
unimportant ingredient, We drop the MISS
leading word.

VENTILATION FOR HAY.-Yentila-
ton above a clover NOW, says a
writer, is as necessary as it is above
q sugar or fruit evaporation. If
there is not open space.and .draugbt
sufficient to carry away the moisture
it is returned to the NOW and mold
is the Inevitable result. No ordi-
nary amount of drying will prevent
hay from becoming musty if veuti
lation is shut off during the sweat
ing process. If a hole is. cut
through the bottom of the NOW,
near the center and under a ventila
tor in the roof, and o barrel placed
over it and drawn up as the hay
is moved Y, thus leaving a hole
from bottom to top, evaporation
will be facilitated and the quantity
of the hay improved. Salt thrown
on as the clover is put in, to the
amount of two or three quarts to
the ton, will make it a relish with
stock.

become so can hardly be realized.
A few years ego it was considered
a luxury, but there are a few homes
now that are so poor as not to
count newspaper among it's be-
longings. In fact, in many houses
it is the principal reading. A. bus
mess man weary with care, will hes
itate about beginning a book. 1t
seems q herculean task to go
through with all those pages, but
he will take up his paper, Gull such
articles as may strike his fancy, and
then lay it down at any moment
without hesitation. In the inter
walls of her housekeeping cares
the wife catches it up and reads
an article here and there to learn
what is going on in the great out
side world. The boys and girls
want to see each days news, and
so the daily or weekly journal goes
the round of the family while the
book rest securely upon its shelf

HIRAM ROMESPUN'S IDEAS
ABOUT EATSIH' CETL-
DREN.

A good many folks has somehow
gotten the notion that the Youngest
of this here age is just about as
bad as they was afore the food.
I am only plain farmer feller,
but I have observed few things,
and I don't agree with those people.
The boys Of 10 day amt no wuss
than they ought to be considerin'
the trainin' some of en- gifts. /
was only 'tother day tellin' naybor
Skinner that he was maxim q big
mistake with his 'boys. Skimmer's S
q good farmer-none better. He
farms scientific. But he don't
know the science of bringin' up a
youngster. Children thrive best
in the light, sandy loam of kind
words, where IL is allus warm and
CHEEKY like. After while, when
they gifts middlin' strong they
ought to be transplanted to the
heavier clay of common sense and
self reliance. This will give EN- q
will of their own-strength of pur
pose, you know. l like TO see a
boy with q will of his own. Some
parents is allus feelin' bad when
they see yoanguns actin stubborn
like. Then they 60 to work to
break the stubbornness with bar
rel hoop or hicory switch. They
thrash and pound until they beat
out everything that's good, and
there's nothin' left but a lot Of
worthless chaff that you can blow
anywheres. It's fearful folish, that.
IF the parent had only got the
child's will under control instead
of knockin' all the spunk outen 'em,
their boys would have been some
use to the kentry- The boys who
makes successful men is those who
have got lots of push and go ahead,
which is nothing more nor a good
strong will that has to be trained
10 grow straight. Another mistake
and naybor SINNERS maxim
it's to want all your boys to
learn a profession. You might
just as well try to make a wagon
pole outen a tooth pick, or a barn
door outen shingle. They would
be dead failures. If you have had
to work hard, the boys can work
hard too. Some of the boys won't
make good farmers, and them's the
ones to make store keepers, book
agents, or lawyers OF. But what
ever you do don't choose their pro
fession. Turn a sheep ont in the
bush and it'll find the best grass
and purest water. Give your boys
a chance, and when they go into
the thick woods of life, they'll in
nine cases outen ten come out to
the clearin' right side up.-Griv.

CLOVER AND ITS USE.
Allow me to make some sugges.

Aiiow me to make some sugges'
tioas as to the use Of Clover. l
will premise by saying that clover
is not hay or forage plant; that
whilst it may be used for that pur-
pose, its great use, in the economy
of nature, is to restore the fertil-
ity of cultivated lands, and to main.
taio that nice adjustment of the
atmosphere which adapts it to the
wants of all living things.
In early spring, wheat fields,
and all fields of small grain, should
be sown with clover seed. 1t will
grow with the growing grain, and
be q decided advantage to it, be-
cause clover draws its food from
the atmosphere, taking nothing
from the soil required by the grow
ing grain, but absorbing the nox-
ious gases and fluids which cause
rust, mildew and blight. After
the grain is harvested, the clover
viii fully occupy the ground, and
if ofstrcng growth may be pastured
n autumn. but in the following
spring should be allowed to grow
undisturbed until in full bloom.
Then the most economical use it
can be put to is to turn it under
with the plow and plant the ground
with corn, which will produce q
full crop with but little labor in
cultivation. But when last culti-
vated-saY in the month Of July
the ground should be sown with
clover seed, which will grow with
advantage to the corn, will fully
occupy the ground and fertilize it
and take the place weeds and
wild grass, which would impover-
ish the soil.
When the clover is wanted for
hay and seed-forssFS sSIi rom !" Sc pro.
vision of nature clover makes two
crops, the first for hay and the
last for seed-in harvesting the
first crop, care should be taken to
cut and remove from the ground
all grasses and weeds. The clover
WI Immediately grow and ripen
tits seed before other plants will
ss.s:rly begin to grow, hence nothing
but clover seed is harvested. This
seems to be a provision of nature,
to other seeds.
If possible, clover should pre-.
cede and follow every crop. Every
uncultivated field and all unoccu-
pied land should rest in clover; and
the wealth of the country would be
improved if the wild grasses and
weeds were forced to give place
to clover, for We know that noxious
gases and Yapors are continually
arising from the earth. Some OF
them are from decaying vegetable
or animal matter, and some ofthem
are miasma. All are offensive to
the smell and injurious to the
health of man. Glover, by means
of its chemical powers, not only
absorbs these gases and feeds upon
them, but freely gives ont oxygen,
which unites with them, and oxy
dies or destroys them, and in this
way cleanses the tainted air.
Because of this salutary effect OF
growing clover upon the air, we
say of people who live in afluence
and luxury, "They live in clover" "

Farm Jou7nal.
