A LETTER FROM Col. ROBERT G. NIGER
SOL TO GRIEF STRICKEN MOTHER.

1t is not long since a lady of this city
was suddenly overwhelmed by great af-
Fiction, that, coming like thunder bolt
upon her, for time threatened her lite.
Her son and only child had gone on a
short business journey. expecting soon to
return. Sudden and fatal illness overlook
him, and brief telegram announced the
dreadful tidings to his heart broken moth

in which she had been brought up. and
according to which she well knew. there
was no hope of future happiness for the
unconverted young man, added greatly to
her agonizing grief over his death. until
her friends feared that her reason, if not
her life, would be destroyed. A lady
friend. who had sympathized deeply with
her, and vainly sought to console her, in
formed Col. lngersoll, and begged him, if
possible, to write something which might
at least relieve in measure the terrible
apprehension as TO the tate of her son, I'M
der which she was suffering. The follow
ing is his letter, which was in a measure
effective:
My DEAR MADAM: Mrs. has
told me the sad story of your almost inf
mite sorrow. am not foolish enough to
suppose that can say or do ANYTHING to
lessen your grief. your anguish for his
loss; but maybe can say something to
drive from your poor heart the fend of
fear.-fear for him. If there is a God.
let US believe he is good and if he is
good. the good have nothing to fear.
have been told that your son was kind and
generous; that he was filled with charity
and sympathy. Now. we know that in
this world, like begets like. kindness pro-
duces kindness, and all good bears the
fruit of joy. Belief is nothing. deeds are
everything; and if your son was kind, he
will naturally find kindness wherever he
may be.

SkinningS,

firmness and steady hand, will tend in a
great measure to overcome hereditary

Oats is the best grain for horses, and
the cheapest in the end; if we had some
means of crushing or bruising them they
would be worth 20 per cent moro to us
than they now are. If was Q miller

and in six months would have all the
business of my region. No man that has
ever used crushed oats will have any

While in the selection of cattle for dali
ry purposes pedigree should have its due
weight, it should not be the only criterion.
A long pedigree and a long course of in
breeding give beauty of form and smooth
ness of coat, but while these are qualities
not to be despised. fancy cattle are not
what the American farmer wants. If in
tended for dairy purposes real worth as
demonstrated by milk producing capacity,
is the basis on which he desires to make
his selection. beauty being a secondary
consideration.
For several years we have kept our
pasture field subdivided into smaller fields,
which are cropped by the cattle in regular
order. The cattle pass with evident
pleasure to fresh fields and pastures
new." even though the feed in the new
field is no better than that of the old The
great trouble with the old system is that
so much good feed is unused" over until
it becomes dstasteful to the herd. This
difficulty is measurably avoided by the
system of small fields which constantly
presents to the herd an untainted grazing
ground induStrtalist.
There are few farms where something
that is preventible does not go wrong. A
COW or horse takes cold; calves or other
animals are overfed; your own or your
neighbors' cattle break into fields of grass
or grain. In the fall, the orchards fur
nish a great temptation. and milch cows
are ruined or die outright from over eat
ing. Now the man who has more than a
usual share of these happenings calls him
self unlucky; but the neighbors apply a
truer name-careless. Does not the differ
ence between carelessness and carefuness

1t is true that orchard grass will make
an excellent pasture, and is the earliest to
mature except blue grass; and it is also
true that it is a permanent grass when not
pastured too close or too late in the au.
tumn. and that it will grow faster in hot
or dry weather. but it is not true that it
makes the best meadow. 1t will produce
more grass in the shade. but the stems are
too scattering to make good meadow
For an aftermath it is the best, unless it is
clover. Timothy is no companion with it.
Do not go wild over orchard grass because
someone says it is better than any other
grass. 1t is, and it is not, and this is the
way with great many things. Good.

TO BABY EVELYN.

Our darling, our rosebud, our jewel bright.
Our bonnie baby, our hearts delight
No name for her is too rare or sweet,
From the star above to the flower at our feet
A golden tangle of soft, soft hair
Frames an arched forehead, Madonna fair,
Roses and lilies play hide-and seek
Amid the dmples of each rounded cheek.
Not alone for her lovely dimpled face,
Her dainty figure and winning grace,
For clear shining eyes and teeth of pearl,
Do We tenderly love this dear little girl;
But for her bright and bewitching smile,
For her loving heart, so free from guile,
And intelligence, with its pure ray,
Unfolding her mind like rose each day.
May guardian angels. who dwell above,
Keep our darling with tenderest love,
still pure and sweet as the lily's bloom,
Till for her in Paradise they shall find room.

To snatch the boarded honey.
The angry swarm in labored flight
Beats heavily upward TO the light,
And echoed on the circling wall,
Their dizzy rumblings rise and fall.

In smothered tumult sinks away,
