Fire In tina Block.

For the second time in twelve
months the Sto kgrowers bank build
ing has had a narrow escape from de-
struction. Shortly after IL o'clock
last night VIM. Golden, night bar
tender ut Coleman's saloon, observed a
fire In the store occupied by N.Nathan
and promptly gave the alarm. In o
very little time, the hour being early,
plenty Of help was present and an
entrance made into Nathan's store
when the fire was blazing brightly.
Hand grensdes were freely used,
water was plenty-in bucket and hose
and willing hands were exerted TO
the utmost. Up stairs the lojgers
were working hard as possible to get
their possessions out Of the windows,
the stairs and Railways being filled
with sitting smoke. and about the
time the rooms were Quilted news
came that the danger was past. Holes
were cut in the upper floor to reach
The flames and every spark was ex-
tinguished.
The back end of Nsthsn's store,
the fire originated, was saturated
with watnr and the heavy tramp of
rushing men wrecked everything
within twenty feet of the shelving that
contained the fire. The smoke from
burning WOODEN goods was dense all
through the building and respiration
was difficult for some time after the
final extinguishment OF the fire.
Slowly and sadly the boys began to
gather together their scattered poses
sions ana return them to the rooms so
hastily vacated. Here a trunk, there
a carpet, a looking glass, an entire
wardrobe. every thing imaginable
was seen at a hssty glance ditributed
about the yard and alley, decidedly
promiscuous. Ii was not long however
before everything had been properly
replaced aud then began an exchange
of notes concerningth the hasty removal.
As to the origin OF the fire no man
car say. there was M lighted lamp
in Nathsn's store and the theory OF
spontaneous combustion is most gener-
ally accepted-the tier of shelves
where the fire started containing
worsteds aud light fabrics. IL might
have been caused by mice and matches
and If so they have added something
over $500 to the long list Of unacount
able fires.

When man says there is no money
at farming it is tacit acknowledgment
that his management has been at fault.
Good parental advice and encourage
ment are much needed by farmers sons
during the first year or two upon the
farm. 1t would be great gain to young
men, and much lessen. the number OF
failures, il farmers would allow their
sons TO begin farming for themselves at
an early age, say fourteen or fifteen.
Give them field and time and means to
work il, advise them what TO do, and
show them how TO avoid mistakes. This
course would give the young greater ex-
perience; they would gain confidence in
themselves, and by the time they arrived
at mans estate would be competent TO
manage any farm successfully. GORE

The hardest work on farm horses is
that of spasmodic nature, heavy one
day and light the next, or hard days
work one day and nothing at all to do
the next. Horses whose nerves become
like iron and which are able TO stand al
most anything in the way of wear and
tear, are those which have an opportu-
nifty TO iay out their strength every day
tn the week. Sore shoulders, weak limbs
and many of the disorders that are found
among horses are the results often OF
but short periods of too severe strains,
or of day or half days work that was
harder than they had been used to.
There Is danger at this season of the
year of imposing hard tasks upon teams,
the roads being bad and some of the
heavier farm work needing attention.
There is no time in the year either that
farmers can as little afford to get their
horses ont of shape as now, the harvest
ing season being near at hand, when
every days work may mean so many
dollars and cents. -National Stockman.
