The wheel of fate hath measureless round
A measureless round, and turneth slow,
And few on the topu ost curve are found
W ho care for the lives crushed out below.
But silent and sure it circuit keeps;
And still the shadows beneath il steal;
For, sooner or later, all IL sweeps
Under the wheel.
There some in the mre of want who fell
AZ the great wheels slackened their straining
hold,
Yet kept their souls, rs the legends tell,
The spotless mariys kept theirs of old.
And some in the furnace of greed are lost;
(Nor ever The angels beside them feelD
And out in the darkness where some are tossed
Under the wheel.
The laughter is sIenced on childhood'- lips
And followed the cheeks OF beauty's bloom;
Still on, remorseless. the great orb slips
inggerDaut car of implacable doomi
Sweet age IL robbed of its sanity peace;
tOh, saddest woe that the heart can fee3
To pain and struggle is no surcease,
Under the wheel.
1t has warped high purpose of noble youth
To base endeavor for place aud gold;
IL has slain the weak who sought for truth
Win craven rror that none hath told.
Hopes heart grew faint, and faiths eye grew
And love felt the chill of death CONCEAL:
Hath God forgotten? they cried 10 him
Under the wheel.

While suns and while stars their orbits keep
Hast thou place, like theirs, In the fathomiess

Economical Feeding
Century Magazine.


Meat is a manufactured product for
which n large amount of raw material is
required. The manufacture of meat is a
process of Transforming the vegetable
protein, fats, carbohydrates of grass and
grain into the animal protein and fat of
beef, pork and mutton. The same
principle applies TO the production of
milk, eggs, and other animal foods In
the most economical feeding Of animals it
takes number of pounds OF hay or com 10
make pound of beef or pork. In other
worls, let the farmer make animal protein
and fat from vegetable materials in the
best way he can, and still he must consume
a large quantity of animal food. Hence
animal foods are cost!ier than vegetable
This is the simple explanation of the fact
that in most parts of the world meat is the
food of only the wel.todo while the poor
live almost entirely on vegetable food
Thus ordinary people in Europe eat but
little meat ana in India and China they
have none at all. 1t is hard enough for
them TO get the nutriment they need in
vegetable forms Meats they cannot
afford.
But Matchmaking in the United States
to-day is far more wasteful than it need
be, on account of the excessive fatness of
our meats. This comes about VERY natural.

duct in the valleys of the Ohio and the
Mississippi and on the ranches Of the west
AT present the pork maker and the ranch
man convert a large portion OF this
into very fat meat? The pork
producers of the great corn
growing states select the breed of swine
which, as they say, will take the most
corn 10 market and have thus got into
the way of growing animals that are little
else than masses OF fat. The beef growers
OF the western ranches, aud those in the
east as well, produce excesslvel, fat meat
Part of the fat is trimmed out of the
meat by the butcher, part is left on the
plates at the table to go to the soap man or
garbage barrel, and part is eaten. Unfor-
tunately very many of US eat much more
fat, both in meat and butter, than is
needed for nourishment, and thus do in

Besides the rot that is occasionally prev
alent and destructive in potatoes, the crop
Is more or less subject to scab ..in different
years and on different soils. Various the
orIes are advocated as the cause, but the
disease often occurs where, according to
the theories, it ought not, and again in
stances will occur Of exemption where, ac-
cording to some of the theories, it ought
TO be abundant. Thus there are seasons
and soils where scahby seed produces
potatoes free from scab, and then n anoth-
season and In different soil, the tubers will
be scabby, although the seed was clean.
Let The primary cause of the scab be what
1t may, my experience leads me to the con-
clusIon that It's occurrence depends upon
certain conditions of moisture and soil.
and while We may have more or less rain
than We desire In some seasons we can, b,
selecting favorable soil for our planting,
greatly lessen the prevalence of scab, il
we do not entirely escape It. For three
years | raised some potatoes on heavy
unframed land, well manured-both stable
and commercial one being used together.
The yield was fairly good one, but a
great mtny of the tubers were scabby. For
the last two years have planted on light
open soil, where the rain quickly descenda
through it, SO that in day or two there
Is no excess of moisture near the surface.
have used only one kind of fertilizer. the
Mapes' special potato manure, and have
not been troubled with scab. To secure
smooth potatoes would plant on light or
we'll drained soil and use only some good
commercial fertilizer. 1 believe partially
rottei stable manure and wet soils are both
liable to produce scab. d. I.
