FARMERS!
LEND US YOUR EARS.

1t is an undisputable fact that the Home
Manufacture of Fertilizer in this county has
reduced the cost of it to the farmer from
three to five dollars per ton and saved to
them Thousands of Dollars. Therefore, is
it not wisdom on your part to encourage us
while we are trying to save you money, and
bring you nearer to the manufacturer? We
desire to deal directly with you as possible,
thereby saving to you all extra commissions.
We therefore invite all farmers, farmers
clubs and grange organizations to call on us
before purchasing elsewhere. We manufac-
ture all of our own brands of goods and
guarantee them as represented. They are
usual city mixture and will drill perfectly. We
guarantee them free from shoddy or any in,
active material, and

The WATER BEAR.
Some of tho Queer Things Revealed by
the Microscope.

Some of tho Queer Things Revealed by
the Microscope.
If in pond water you should find, re-
volving slowly, some round balls of the
loveliest green color, and covered with
delicate network. you may read about
them in any book on microscopy, under
the heading Volvox, Inside may be
seen smaller balls of the same kind. BY
and blythe big ball will break open and
free the little ones, each Of which will
then grow and grow, until in due time
it will break open too, and still newer
balls will begin their rowing lives.
Wherever two meshes of the combining
net cross are two hairs, so small that
they are altogether invisible except un.
der very powerful microscope. These
hairs, like those on the vorticell@, are
used in securing food and in moving
about. Volvox, however, is classified
as plant and not as an animal
must not forget my friend the water
bear, He is such a comical, clumsy
fellow. He goes slowly about on his
eight little feet, poking and plodding
among the minute water plants, always
sure of finding something good to eat
He is the very embodiment of indolent
content Yet for all he seems so salts
fed with his lot in life, his personal
appearance is not always pleasant to
himself; for at intervals he slips bodily
out of his skin, and appears in an en-
tirely new suit, though must confess
the general style of the cast-off dress
is retained. Instead of throwing the
old suit aside, as certain and bigger
and clumsier creatures do, he gets out
of 1t so deity that it stands upright
and complete, even to his four pairs OF
shoes
When the mother bear slips out of
her old dress, she leaves some eggs in
it, In a few days these hatch and some
baby bears begin swimming around in
the cast-oif skin But only for n short
time They snou find their way to the
feedic9 grounds ara at onoe begin
climbing slowly about, and seem as
muah at home as are their parents 81
