HoEING AND PRAYING.

Faith without works is dead."-Bible.
Said Farmer Jones in a whining tone
10 his good old neighbor Gray;
I've worn my knees thro to the bone,
But 1t amt no use to pray.
'Your corn looks twice as good as mine,
though you don't pretend to be
A shinin' light In the church to shine,
And tell salvation free.
i've prayed the Lord thousand times,
For to make that ere corn grow;
An why yourn beats it so and climbs
I'd gin deal to know"
Said Farmer Gray to his neighbor Jones,
In his easy, quiet way:
when prayers get mixed with lazy bones,
They don't make farming pay.
Your weeds notice are good an tah,
: In spite of all your prayers;
You may pray for corn till the heavens fall
IT you don't dig up the tares.
II mix my prayers with little toll,
Along in every row;
An work this mixture into the soil,
Quite vigorous with hoe.
AN I've discovered, though still in sin,
AS sure as you are born,
This kind of compost well worked IN
Makes pretty decent corn.

An the Lord He does the rest.
"It's well for to pray, both night an morn,
AS every farmer knows; 49,
But the place to pray for thrifty corn
Is right between the rows.
"You must use your hands while praying.
though,
If an answer you would get,
For prayer worn knees and rusty hoe
Never raised big crop yet.
'An' so believe, my good old friend,
If you mean to win to-day,
From plowing, clean to the harvest's end,
You must hoe as well as pray"

The Perfect Horse.

The perfect horse is yet to be foaled and we
must take facts as they are, and not expect to
find all good qualities in any one. horse. In
dealing with stranger rely largely on your
own Judgment, and endeavor not to be misled
by any questionable statemnts he may make.
Seethat the horse stands squarely on its feet, and
that it does not toe out behind or toe forward.
Run your hand slowly and carefully down the
inside of each leg if thereis bunch there you
will feel it. See that the feet are sound and
we'll spread. A dark hoof, if sound, is always
preferable to a white or streaked one. Look
sharp at the eye. A bright full eye denotes
spirit; mil6 pleasant, affectionate disposition,
While an eve with good deal of white denotes
temner. There is no other way perhaps to
indee a horses disposition so well as by care
fnl Study of the eyes, and too much importance
cannot be we'll attached to the necessity of
good disposition. In every case take bill of
the horse, written by the seller himself, with
the horse described therein as sound or unsound.
If buyer is personally acquainted with per-
son who has a satisfactory horse for sale it is
better to purchase of him even if 1t cost more.
Nearly every man feels indignant at the sug-
gestion that he is not competent to handle any
horse. while the fact is this: 'that after you
and are taken out of the list. there remain
comparatively few men competent to handle
q fine, high strung, nervous horse, although
it may not be in the least vicious" Many a
man has made a serious mistake by getting
more horsehesh than he can handle. He may
lack the patience required with wIde-awake
horse,

The Township system the Only One.

The Baltimore Hearld, always an advocate
of good roads, led off again few days ago
with an able editorial on the subject. But, it
may as well be written. there will be no
til the township system is adopted, or some
thing akin to it. by investing the srHpe;ry!is
In other words, Home Rule should be the
watchword in all campaigns for the betterment
of all material resources in the state. County
seat cabals have always and ever will fail to
exercise judicious superintendent over the
highways even when the effort is conscientious
and public-spirited, for the very reason that
the sprawled-out counties are too cumbersome
to handle; but in nine cases out of ten there
are no honest attempts to do the best for the
public with the means available. The rule.
alas is to use the fund for highways to further
political ends. The township system would
obviate much of the difficulty, for the reason
that the money would be spent whereit is raised
in taxes, and, being constantly under the eyes
of those directly interested as taxpayers, the
work would receive more attention than it
possibly could under the heunwieldy, blundering
and too often dishonest system which now
prevails-LGurel Free Quill.
