If seed of any kind is saved from plants
in the garden good care should be taken,
says the st. Louis Republic, to secure only
the best. At the prices nearly or quite all
kinds of garden seeds can be bought for it
does not pay to use any but the best, and if
what can be saved from the garden is not of
the very best quality, it will be cheaper to
let them so and buy what is needed. There
are many plants that mature seed the first
season and number of others that must be
grown one year and be left over AID set out
again next spring, when a new growth will
start I'D and mature seed.
With plants that make seed the first sea-
son only those that have made vigorous,
thrifty and. as rule, early growth, should
be selected and allowed to mature seed
VITA lettuce and radishes and this class of
seed the better plan is to cut off the plants
just after the seed begins to harden and
hang them up in a dry place and let them
cure before threshing out; if this is done
they can readily cleaned.
With beans and peas, a row or two of the
earliest and best should be saved for seed.
Let them get fairly ripe, then gather and
QTY. vi melons Ule CHOICEST snOulQ only
be saved. Two or three Of the best cucum-
bers can be allowed to ripen and will fur
nish all the seed needed. A very few Of the
choicest tomatoes should be saved for seed.
With tomatoes, cucumbers and melons it is
quite an item to wash clean and dry thor
oughly; with the other kinds of seeds wash
ing is not necessary. but it is very import
ant to dry thoroughly before storing away.
If wet they are liable to heat and mould
and the vitality, if not destroyed, will be
seriously injured. Beets. turnips, carrots,
satisfy. parsnips and cabbage must be
stored ever through the winter and be set
out again in the spring, and the new growth
will mature seed. Parsnips and satisfy need
not be taken up; they are not seriously in
jured by freezing, and can be kept where
they grow. The others must be- protec ted
from freezing. Of these only the best
should be selected and left. To use the earli-
est and best and take the leavings for seed
is. the worst of management. and, while
the effect may not be SO noticeable the
first season, it will show in short time.

the same quantity of clover hay and q
small quantity OF wheat bran and mix well
together; feed in tight troughs or managers.
This makes a good ration for cattle, sheep
and horses; it is complete feed. The ad-
vantage in using CIT straw for bedding is
that it is in much better condition to
handle in every way. Care should be taken
in stacking, as the quality is often seriously
impaired by careless stacking. If it cannos
be worked up in any other way the stock
can be turned into it and be allowed to eat
and tramp down, and, while the manure
will not be SO valuable as if cut and used in
the stables or sheds, it will be well worth
hauling out and distributing.

stacking Straw.

Rightly managed, straw makes a good
feed during winter, and what cannot be
used for feed can be used for bedding, and
in this way converted into good manure.
The stacking should be done at threshing.
II straw sheds are to be provided during
the winter, the frames should be built ready
so that they can be covered when the thresh-
ing is done.
Stock prefer oat to wheat straw, and the
wheat straw will keep the easiest. STRAW is
not by any means complete food and must
be used 10 connection with othe materials if
the best results are obtained.
1t can DO improved both for feeding and
for bedding by running through a cutting
box. 1t adds nothing TO its value as feed
but puts it in better condition to be used in
connection with other materials. Used With
bran, or with bran and cornmeaL it make
a very fair ration. The bsst way Of feeding
straw is to run through a cutting box, add

The great Clearance Sale
of Remnants has been such
an emphatic success that
we've been tempted this week
to add a number of very de-
sirable dress lengths to the
already large assortment, and
offer them at the same rate of
reduction as the remnants.
Bargain seekers will certainly
have everything their own
way this week in the Remnant
line, for we have picked out
quite number of very desir-
able lengths in Lace Flounc-
ings and Embroidered Skirt
ings. and will offer them at
exactly half their former price.

Is Over for This Year.

We now commence the task
of getting rid of our surplus
Stock, minus profit.
Three weeks ago we opened
our eyes to the fact that we
had too many Parasols on
hand, and decided that they
must be reduced in price in
order to close them out. We
had 1900 Parasols on hand
when we came to this decis-
ion. To-day we have less
than 200 on hand. Now to
close these out promptly we
will offer them at a still further
reduction. At the present
prices the entire Stock should
be closed out by Wednesday
or Thursday the outside.

SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK.
Rev. Or. Coxe's Talk to the Super
Intendent's Union.

There was fair sized audience, composed
of members of the different Sunday schools
in this city, at the Second Parish church last
evening, to listen to the Rev, DR.. Coke of
Washington, Iowa. The services began with
singing the hymn, Even Me-" Rev. j. M.
Frost read selection from the scriptures
and prayer was offered by Rev. Mr.. Wilson,
after which Mr.. Brunell introduced the
speaker. DR.. Coke is closely identified with
Sunday school work, and is a forcible and
impressive speaker. He outlined "a Week
of Sunday School Work" He said:
Work always implies a worker. If there
Is anything to be done some one must do it.
There are three classes involved in nv
thought; First-the pastor. He is the teacher
OF teachers. He Is the leader of the spiritual
with the Word of God, 1T is his business he
has given his life to the exposition Of the
Word OF God. How can he teach If he does
not know it? He should be thoroughly
posted, not only in the exposition but in the
Second-The superintendent stands side
by side with the pastor. Between the two, if
they are level-headed, there will never be
any collision: Each will know his own place,
and and each win keep it.a very hard thing for
some people to do. His work is supervisory
an executive officer. he must be familiar
with his work. Ordinarily the superintend-
emit should be teacher of the teachers, and.
aided by the pastor, should lead the teachers
meeting.
Third-The teacher and the pupil must
work together There must be cooperation.
Begin the study of one lesson as soon as the
other is over. Study the lesson on the Lords
day for spiritual enrichment. Do the work
thoroughly. Remember there are minds as
plastic as clay in the hands of the modeler.
There should be definite end In view In i'm
parting Bible teaching-to touch dead hearts
with living truth.
Work systematically. No day should be
without special line. There is no plea for
lack of time. If we do not have time 1t is
because we do not know how to economic
the moments as the miser does his gold:
there is plenty of time if we know how to
utilize 1t.
The address was interspersed with apec-
dotes which the speaker told in happy
manner, illustrating his points.

eral OF Senator Beck at Washington. When
the officer of the Senate appeared at the
south door to announce "The President of
the United States and the members of his
Cabinet" one familiar voice was not heard.
For 30 years and more there has been no
formal ceremony in the Senate when the
venerable Doorkeeper Bassett as as page and
man has not been present. And, in the men,
DRY of the generation now living, no voice
has ever before announced the arrival of
distinguished persons there. Mr.. Bassett is
i'll, and for the first time in all that long
period has been compelled to absent himself
from such ceremony. In his place stood
young man with clear, ringing voice, and a
graceful, manly presence, Mr.. Charles B.

succeeds. 1t is to his credit that the vast
audience entered and left the Senate Cham
Der without friction or deviation from the
