Right in Meeting.

1t was one Sunday, more than twenty
years ago, that little Annie May went to
church for the first time.
She wore blue embroidered dress, and
a white embroidered ca pc, and blue shoes
nd white stockings, snd white straw
bonnet with wide blue strings tied under
her mite of dimpled chin. Her eyes
matched the ribbon, and her cheeks were
pink as rose, and her hair was almost
the shade of my canary's wing.
Altogether, she was a very sweet and
dainty little maiden, indeed.
Elder Rogers was the preacher. Annie
knew him very well. He came to her
papa's house often in big covered car
riage, and he brought her apples if his
pocket, and took her on his knee and told
her stories while she ate them.
Annie remembered all this; and when
the elder had taken his place in the pulpit,
she slid off her seat and crept out under
the settees to the pulpit, before anybody
knew what she was going to do. She
held up her wee mouth.
''lve come to give you kiss said she,
land want you to tell story"
The congregation smiled-all but Annie's
Aunt Jane. The elder smiled, too and
took the kiss, and told Annie she must
wait little while for the story.
Annie climbed up in the big chair to
wait. But she couldn't keep her blue
eyes open and the first thing she knew
Aunt Jane was shaking her awake.
"Ill bring you the story tomorrow" :"
laughed the elder.
"And apples p asked Annie.
Wasn't she funny little-girl? But she
didn't know any better, you know

Boys on the Farm.

A correspondent asks our reason for ad-
vising boys to stay on the farm. He says
that he knows men who are receiving one
dollar and fifty cents and even two dollars
q day in cities where living is compare
lively cheap, while the farmer makes but
very little more than living and some.
times not that. In answer to this we
would say that we do not advise boy to
stay on the farm if he is better fitted for
something else. But SO far as the city is
concerned, it is not true that living is
cheap or comparatively SO. In the first
place there are fifty men for every vacant
place in the city. But suppose a young
man should have the extraordinary luck to
get job and should get twelve dollars a
week. It will cost him FIVE dollars week
for board and room, and not near as good
bed as he has at home either. 1t will cost
him fifty cents for washing thirty dollars
year for car fare; fifty dollars for
clothes. This will leave about seventy
ave dollars, and he would not be in the
city year until he would think seventy
Eve dollars was very little spending
money. Twenty dollars month on the
farm is better that fifty dollars in the city.

What the Cow Gives Us.

American dairy interests are startlingly
enormous. They represent an investment
of nearly twenty five times the entire bank
capital of the country-that is to say, the
bank capital is little less than $971 000,-
600, while the dairy interests amount to
more than So, Goo, 100000.
OF course our readers cannot swallow
such frightful figures in a lump, and we
will therefore arrange them in several
smaller but heroic doses
The number of milch COWS is estimated
at q ,O00,0 ,000 They give each an average
of $50 gallons of milk annually. This
would make an aggregate milk production
of 1850 600, 600 ga ions, aminiature ocean,
fair sized Niagara Four thousand mil.
lions are used for cheese, and the remain
ing Csc. 600, 900 pass through the adulter
ating hands of the milkman and grocer
down the throats of 100000 men,
women and babies in this land of freedom
The quantity of butter manufactured
and used is about 1850, 900 lbs, and of
cheese $500, 900 lbs. The value of our
dairy products for the last wear was nearly
$500, 900, 900. This is $2O,OOO,OO more
than the value of our annual wheat yield,
while it closely approximates that of our
corn crop, which is the most valuable of
our farm products.
To support this immense dairy herd
100, ,000,O acres of pasture land are re-
quired. worth $250,000,00O 1t is easy
enough to see, therefore, that the 4,OOO,-
900 farmers in this country are an impor-
tant element of our national welfare and
prosperity,
