One OF the things that should be dis
cussed by farmers clubs during the
winter is the topic OF better highways
A lively public interest Ia good high
ways must precede any effective nc
tlon. We can not hope for better
highways until we and our neighbors
are thoroughly aroused and enthused.
The man that would better the high
ways OF his neighborbood must begin
by presenting the advantage OF better
highways to his neighbors in a con-
vincing way. Hence, he must study
up the gains OF good highways, as
well as how TO make them, aud pre-
sent the facts to his neighbors; and IL

opportunities for bringing these facts

fof the final destiny of the earth.
he bases IL on 1.-THE teaching of

bViths Of science" In brief, il is that
when the archangel sounds the last
trump and summons the dead to arise
from their graves and come to judg-
lnont the whole Of this planet will
vanish with them for their bodies will
comprise all the matter Of which it is
composed.
This novel position Is based on statis-
ties and science and is defended with
The exactness of mathematical calcu-
lations He notes the tendency of
science to reduce substances hereto
fore regarded MS elementary. and argues
that in the end only one universal
elemental substance will be recognized.
Next he refers to the scientific fact
that the absolute amount OF matter or.
in nther words, the sum total of all

Good care should be given the hens
now as through the winter is the best
time to realize good profit from

There is no economy in keeping
stock over winter unless they will
make sufficient growth to pay we'll

One advantage in keeping the stock
in good thrifty condition is that they
are ready to market any time that
may be desirable.
Without protection for every pound

another pound must be given to

One OF the best remedies to use for
worms in stock Is to give little tur-

Care should be taken in handling
young colts to be systematic. Train
them to do one thing at time. but
have them learn that thoroughly.
To make the best success with farm

work and care in feeding and hand

Not only after a storm, but every

the fish should be carefully removed

fish should remain there for half an

A third difficulty is that the average
young man is seriously In danger OF
being left behind. intellectually. by the
average young woman. We do not
expect that this alarming statement
will be accepted without dispute. But
we commend to tho SOLEMN considera-

WHY THEY ARE DULL TAKERS.
The Average Young Man Must Read n

The Boston journal says that there
are three causes which 90 far to explain
the MISUNDERSTANDING character of the
young person Of the opposite sex. The
first is that he is too much engrossed in
himself and the things which interest
him. The finest point of courtesy in
conversation is to seek those subjects
which will interest the people with
whom we talk. The young man who
goes into the society Of cultivated young
women and has nothing better to offer
as his contribution to the conversation
than base ball talk or "reminiscences of
college scrapes. will make himself en-
tertaiuing. II at all. only by making
himself ridiculous. and that. II is safe
to say, Is not what he Is after. So of
the various other subjects, either Of

chiefly the concern of men. They
ought not to be forced into CONVERSE

to know about them. very well. but the
information should be given rs bright
ly and interestingly rs possible. and
without any appearance OF conde-
scent'rg enlightenment. The true gen.
tleman who enters the society OF women
with the Difference which he should
feel will study them sufficiently to
know what things are likely to interest
them and what are not.
Another difficulty is that the average
young man is likely to make mistake

young women, even when he makes
sincere attempt to adapt his conversa-
