Handling Grain Unbound.

A farmer writing to the Farm and
FireSide reports as below: | have
put up nv oats loose for three orfour
years, and / find it far cheaper than
to bind either by hand or by machine.
The way l put mine up is to cut with
a self rake machine, follow after,
gather it up and shock it. Two men
can follow machine and shock to
good advantage. Set the grain up
on the butt end, the same as bound
grain. If man hires his grain cut,
he will pay IS cents per acre for a
binder to cut the grain. and nothing
less than so cents per acre, and often
45, for Irvine, and so cents for shock
ing, in all 81 35-. You can get your
grain cut witk a self rake for 80 cts.
per acre, and the grain set up in
shocks for 80 cents, so there is a saw
ing of 30 cents per acre. 1t can be
stacked and threshed just as cheaply.
Loose grain shocked in this way will
stand more wet weather than bound
grain

Why Did She DO It9

saw her strolling by the sea,
A sweet, shy and winsOme miss,
And as she shyly glanced at me
threw her stealthily kiss.
She looked around, the winsome miss,
No prying eyes were there to see
Responding to my waited kiss
She waved her handkerchief to me.
We're married; She's no more a miss,
And oft ask myself in grief;
Why did I throw that fatal kiss7
Why did she wave her handkerchief

Black Hair Is Expensive.

Pure black hair is very rare and eN
pensive. Some of our Indians are cele-
brated for possessing marvellously long
fine hair of this coveted blue-black hue.
They so far have not been impressed
with the advantages of turning hair
farmers, and prefer their hair to its
equivalent in filthy lucre. The Japanese
women, who also have this blue-black
hair, regard it as great beauty, take
much pride in dressing it, an operation
which they take great care not to per-
form too often, and do not evince tho
smallest inclination to use it in a com
mercial way. Their Chinese sisters,
on the other hand, frequently dispose
of their locks, but as a rule, these are
uncompromisingly straight, rather
coarse, and possess only the advan-
tsges of length and color.
