Facial Eypressfon,

A mans occupation has q great deal
TO do with making his facial expression.
Studies or scholarly professions, intel
lectual pursuits, when coupled with
moral habits, brighten the face and give
a superior look. An unselfsh nature,
or love of study or arts, will make n
bright, pleasant face; but, on the con-
trary, a man may have u face that does
not please any one, because of pure
s~elfishness. 1t may be noticed that SOL
diers get a hard, severe look; laborers
look tired; reporters look inquisitive;
mathematicians look studious; Judges
look grave, and a man whose home life
is unhappy looks all broken up. The
business often makes the face. How
often we think this mar is n butcher,
this one q lawyer, that n q minister,
the other n doctor. and so on. j. is
seldom we are mistaken, for the calling
shows through the faces. And who fails
to recognize the genuine farmer the
minute one sets ewes on HMM. Y.

For two years I suffered terribly
with stomach trouble, and was for
all that time under treatment by a
physician. He finally, after trying
everything, said stomach was about

cease eating solid food for a time at
least. I was so weak that I could
not work. Finally on the recon-
mendation of a friend who had used

menced using it. It seemed to do
ME good at once. I gained in

FARMING FOR PROFIT.

Study to Make n Success of Some Partic-
ular Line Speciality.
| notice that most farmers or stock
raisers who have made any sort of a
success of their business, as well as
those who have made a great success of
it, have followed some particular line
from their earliest boyhood; and to
this they have devoted most of their
time and attention. They have eXer-
cised forethought and planned for their
business long time before starting on
their own hook.
] wish to direct my remarks in partic-
ular to the small farmers who raise @
great variety either of agricultural
products or stock T. B. Terry, great
writer in this particular line said: "If
there is any way for small farmer to
be always poor, it is by raising little
of everything" 1 wish to add that if
there is anything to make farm life dis
agreeable, it is keeping all kinds of
stock, or even any one kind, without
previous arrangement and study of the
business.
have often been about small farms,
where everybody acted as though he in
W move OuU anu
hadn't time to set up business in first
class order. Then the proprietor would
go about making excuses for inefficient
methods, the faults of which he could
see himself One common expression
among such people is: Next year,
when / get little time, am going to
make this stable warm and handy and
feeding profitable" The fellow who is
always going to mend some time in the
future never finds the time to do SO.
Make things right at the start; study
what you want, then exercise fore
thought and make things work system
atically from the outset. Then you
will not work one month, or even one
day, at loss or without realizing fair
amount of gain. Doesn't one thing run
at profit bring better returns than
two run at loss? Farming will be
more pleasant and profitable occupa-
tion when we study and plan to make
success of some particular line as
specialty.-W. o. Bartley, in Rural
New Yorker

AMONG THE POULTRY.

CHEESE boxes are good for nests; they
are generally easy to get.
Fowls that fatten readily should
have plenty of exercise or they will get
too fat.
So FAR as possible keep the young
fowls to themselves, at least until they
can be given free range.
WHENEVER a fowl shows signs of
sickness separate it from the rest of the
flock as soon as possible.
ALWAYS see and water well before
shipping and be careful not to crowd
TOO many into the coops.
WHEN you have thoroughly learned
to manage few fowls it will be time
enough to keep large number.
On the farm good facilities, good
management and good markets are
more important than the breed of
fowls. ~. tte4,. .,s sse,.s.sa,
A GOOD way to give oil of any kind is
to pour it on the drinking water; float

that with good management much
more even lot of poultry can be OBJ

CARRIAGE NOMENCLATURE.

Sources From which Certain Vehicles
Derive Their Names.
The popular hanson derives its dis
tinguishing title from certain Mr.
Hanson.
The brougham, which was first used
by the famous Lord Brougham, took its
title from that nobleman.
Landau, a city in Germany, was the
locality in which was first made the
style of vehicle bearing that name.
Hacks were originally termed hack
ney coaches, because they were drawn
by haclney-a name applied to easy
going, safe pacing-horses.
William w., who prior to becoming
king of England had been the duke of
Clarence, gave the latter name to his
favorite mode of conveyance.
| The old-fashioncd gig was give that
name from its peculiar jumping and
i rocking motion, the word being taken
from the French gigue, signifying jig,
or lively dance
The term coach is derived from the
French coche, diminutive form of the
Latin conchula, a shell, in which form
the body of such conveyance was orig
inally fashioned.
Coupe is French in origin, being de-
rived from the verb couper (coopay) to
cut This was considered an appropri-
| ate designation because it greatly re-
sembled coach with the front part cut
off.
The particular form of carriage
known as the trilbury-at one time
| 4,. III l,,,N
was so called from a sporting gentle
man of London who rejoiced in the cog
nomen of Trilbury.
Seldom if ever, is the full term omni-
bus applied to those numbering vehicles.
With the characteristic brevity of En-.
glish speaking races the title has been
changed to bus These were first seen
in Paris in 1927, the original name being
more than the Latin word signifying
'for all"
The word sullly, as applied to a
wheeled conveyance, had its origin in
the fact that when it first appeared the
person who saw it considered that none
but a sullly, selfish man would ride in
| such an affair which afforded accommo.
! dation for but one individual The
| strange title was never changed.
Cab is an abbreviation of the Italian
capriola, which is changed to cabriolet

Sheep are undoubtedly the best-pay.
ing stock kept, and when their enrich
ing and misunderstanding proclivities
are considered, it is questionable
whether any farm can afford to run
without flock. The call from good
livers for fine lamb and mutton is on
the increase, and the time will never
come when wool, famous for its use.
fulness in all ages, will not be priced.
Indeed, the lessened value of woolens
because of cheaper cotton is already
being reformed, for folks are learning
that to keep out cold and prevent sick.
ness from exposure muslin cannot com
pare with flannel. Were sheep only
available on certain soils, the industry
would not possess such universal prom.
inence, but they can, happily be kept
to advantage almost everywhere, ex-
cept on low, moist flats, and even here
a few could be fattened each year to
advantage. Remember two points
when starting flock: Get the best you
can afford don't take culls under any
circumstances), and pay good price
for thoroughbred sire. A few extra
dollars invested in prime male will
often double the value of the whole
flock. Succulent food, rye, roots and
ensilage are good for sheep and espe-
cially so for weaving of nursing ewes.
These things not only increase the flow
of milk, but make parturition easier.
Stock giving steady and frequent re-
turns would be expected naturally to
require more care and labor than cows,
but such is not the case with sheep. In
deed, the shepherd of experience finds
but little time necessary for the care
of stock after lambing season. Salt,
change of pasture, fixing of fences and
the occasional adjustment of a bell

ease, the returns will come satisfactori.

PASTURE EXPERIENCE.
An Argument Against Orchard Grass and
Against Flowing.

An Argument Against Orchard Grass and
Against Flowing.
Orchard grass affords an early bite
if an animal can be induced to bite it.
Let any champion of this plant lead
out horse, watch him as he feeds and
see him dodge the orchard grass He
will eat other grasses, clover, etc, all
round it clear to the ground with no
more thought of touching the orchard
grass than he has of gnawing a stone.
When | moved some Gust heading QUIT
and gave it to my stabbed horses l
found they preferred going hungry to
eating it. 1T does we'll in company
with other grasses"-which means, 1
suppose, that it grows in tufts and
never would make sod of itself. If
your soil enforces orchard grass you
would better emigrate. The pasture
ON my place has been used as such
about sixty years. 1t has never
been plowed or manured, and 1
think never was better than last
year. Four years ago it grew
vast quantities of yarrow (Achillea mil
lefolium). never saw SO much at once
before. / was told: ut is all run out;
you Will nave no plOW III, ana De-
gan to think so. But the two last wet
summers have killed the yarrow and
brought back the grass; there were
acres tinted with white clover bloom,
and it was not easy to see in June
where any grass had been eaten. There
is a stratum of black mold to inches
thick all over it, and if not overstocked
see no reason why it should not en-
dure 1,OOO years. l suspect that when
such land is plowed large amounts of
this carbonaceous matter are eaten up
by oxygen and carried off as carbonic
acid gas, or carbon dioXide, as we say
now, which, with the grass growing
over it, would have been preserved to
the soil. Reseeding, topdressing, weed
digging, etc, are better for pasture
land than plowing, in. the long. run
Do not suppose it ruined because tran
sient weeds have got foothold. They
may have been born of drouth, like my
yarrow.-E. S. Gilbert, in n. Y. Tribune
