why It Should Receive the Most Careful
Attention Of Farmers.
The law that governs water, the ve-
hicle which transports the energy of
the soil into and through the plant and
animal, and the harmonious operation
of this law, in conjunction with the law
of nutriment, should receive our care
full attention. As water is the sub
stance which carries all food for plants
and animals into and out Of circulation,
it becomes of the utmost Importance.
If the laws which govern all else be
practically known and the knowledge
Of the part which water plays in
growth and production be wanting, our
efforts will not reach the highest sue
cess. 1t is not enough that water is
present in suitable quantities. it must
be palatable and easily accessible: just
enough and not too much. Better \
shortage of food than of water. better
irregularity in feeding than in water
ing, for il the ration be temporarily de-
ficient and the vehicle for transporting

present, no great harm will result.

he would better study hydraulics before

grain raiser might say that he would
better pay strict attention to set free
more plant food by better culture and
by outstanding farm manures, before
investing in commercial fertilizers; for
possibly If he utilities what he already
has. according to law, he will have lit

tivators of plants, may not say that it
might be better to make it more COM
Portable for the plants and animals
which are already possessed, in order
that they may make the best use of the
operations of the laws which govern
them, whether they be scrub or thor

But alas he vanished and Time appeared

He dragged me forth from the court OF kings,
He gave me doubt and bloom beard,

And the rocks came out on the trodden way;
One silent touch aid the past was a dream,
And my soul was afioat on fading stream.

CHAPTER ".
HIS DEAREST FOE

There is a strong contrast between a
lady's boudoir with charming young
woman for a companion and the cob
webby loft of stable, whose chief
feature is some evil-smelling, widowed
hay, with occasional glimpses of fat,
lazy spiders spinning webs for flies that
never come to the sun-forsaken spot,
yet that was just the metamorphosis
which Frank Besant realized.
He had been hastily hurried through
the yard at the back of the house, per-
| emptorily ordered to climb ladder to
his present uncomfortable quarters and
notified that if he did not keep perfect
| ly quiet until further communications,
he would bring heavy trouble on the
head of his fair acquaintance, let alone
| entailing disagreeable consequences on
himself. So he sat for hours modify
Illuminating over the days occurrences
and wondering how the adventure would
wind up.
The shades of evening began to fall
at last. and Frank got more and more
uncomfortable. Had it not been for
Charles Fulton he would have made an

out of the question; besides he felt that
it would be a poor return to the girl
for her kindness, if he were to allow his
impotence to jeopardize her safety.
At last.
| There was some one moving in the
stable below. Frank listened with
GREATNESS interest. Presently a voice
called out cautiously:
| Its me, boss-Aun' Matte. jess
