FARM AND HOME,
THE GARDEN OF YEARS.

ERNEST W. sHURTLEFF IN CoNGREGATIoNALIsT.
| entered the beautiful Garden of Years
In the springtime CT long ago,
Through heaven the breeZes. like characters
Drove in pageants of cloud white as snow
The sunlight fell soft as the moonlight at eve.
And the night was fair as the day,
And Thought there was nothing on earth that
could grieve.
But that all the sweet world must be gay.
l was only Il child in the Garden of Years,
And my hopes were in bloom with the rose,
And the music of life rang in chimes in my
From the dawn Of the day to its close:
so played with the butterflies, caroled with the
birds.
And dreamed with the stars while I slept,
The language of life my mothers kind
words,
And into Gods bosom crept
But learned, as grew in the Garden of Years,
a lesson of mournful surprise
| learned with the hopes of the world that were
fears,
And I found there were sorrowful eyes;
found the heart weary in many breast,
And | saw that to many home
Where love had invited some radiant guest
The angel of Sorrow had come.
1 found, in the beautiful Garden of Years,
I, too had cross l must bear;
But whenever looked for Gods smile through
my tears
found my LIES rainbow was there.
And one day l CHANGED the Wise Gardener to
meet,
Who taught me what love should have known,
That he who from sorrow leads others worn
feet
Shall find paths of peace for his own.
And now grander still is the Garden of Years
Than in the old springtime sublime,
Whose memories fall like curfew that cheers
From the far-away towers OF time;
For blessed is he who lifes sorrow abates,
Forgiving as he is forgiven;
For him shall life's angel, through death ope' the
gates
Of that Garden Eternal called Heaven.

FARM NOTES.

If the tomato vines are too thick to adj
nit sunslight and air cut away some OF
the branches, o. rot may appear in the
fruit.
The director of the Ohio experiment
station would like to combine eight hours
work and two hours study in line of each
days work. The boys he thinks should be
hired by the month.
The summer season is very trying on
hogs that are confined in pens with no
shade. Corn should be fed very spar
ingly at this season, or omitted alto
gether. Keep the trough full of fresh
water.
The Swedes are out with still another
device in the dairy line, according to the
Rural New Yorker, which is called the
butter accumulation. 1t is attached to the
bowl of the cream separator
With flock of sheep, a dairy or lot
of thrifty hogs to fall back upon, a farm er
may endure storms, droughts and early
frost with more composure than he who
had no live stock to supplement his Guilt
waited crops.
Rotate the crops in the garden as we'll as
In the fields. Do not grow peas or cabbage
on the ground occupied by such crops last
year, but change all crops to new plats, or
to plats occupied by some other crop the
previous season. Rotation is very i'm
portant matter In agriculture.

Drilling vs.. Broadcast Seeding.

The Dakota Experiment station, after a
series of experiments conducted for the
purpose of determining whether drilling
or broadcast sowing was best for wheat
in that state, reaches the following con
illusions:
l. With the Dress drill termination
is secured, however dry the season. With
broadcast seedlings, surface moisture is
necessary to insure growth.
g Economy of seed by the drill method.
Strong winds deepen the covering of the
press drilled while they uncover the broad
cast.
3. In per cent. of tiIlering the broad
casted exceeds the pressed drilled
4. Evenness of distribution, germina.
ton, growth and ripening are all points
In favor of the press drill.
5. Economy in the cost of implements,
abor and horse power favors the broad
cast method.
6. In the past seasons work the press
drilled grain natures eprlier, and conse-
quentIy received less injury from rust and
hot winds.
7. The experiment shows that for our
dry seeding time the press is the best.

Pig Feeding Experiments

Experiments with corn, corn and grass,
and grass, as pig-fattening rations, have
been in progress for the past three years at
the Illinois Experiment Station. Tests
have also been made to determine the COM
paratlve feeding value of soaked and dry
corn, the value of cattle droppings, and of
apple pomace as food for pigs. From the
results obtainee from feeding corn or corn
and grass, itappears that the greatest gain
In weight for the corn eaten resulted from
giving about half feed of corn to pigs run
nins on grass, when for A. pounds of
corn eaten, pound of flesh was gained
Pigs given full feed of corr with grass
gained poun d in weight for 465 pounds
of corn eaten; while those on corn only,
gained but pound to 5 81 pounds of corn
fed. 1t was also observed that the most
gain for the food given was made in the
early parts of the trials, those fed corn
only showing the bad effects of it towards
the last. both in physical appearance and
in slow gain. In feeding soaked and dry
corn there was no perceptible difference in
gain per pound of corn fed, but those given
soaked corn ate more and thus gained
faster. Pigs following cornfed cattle
gained more than two-thirds as much as
those that were corn fed and when after
ward given corn, made more rapid growth
than those which had not folio yed the cat
tie. Experiments In feeding apple pomace
were not satisfactory. Though the pomace
kept well, and had a good chemical COM
position for feeding purposes, the pigs
consumed very little of it.

WILD BEASTS IN INDIA.
Many Adults and Children Fall II Prey t

Many Adults and Children Fall Il Prey to
them.
1t is we'll known that about TWENTY-FIVE
thousand people year fall prey to the
wild beasts of India. The larger part of
these victims are killed by tigers and
venomous snakes which are met in the
tragedies are guilty of great carelessness.
With care the danger of wild beasts
might, in the majority of cases be avert
ed.
An animal which has for some months
been written about great deal in Indian
newspapers has at last succumb bed having
proved to be full grown leopard, probab-
around the village in the edges of the
and at least fifteen people were killed by
him. including several adults as well as
children. 1t was hard work to kill Tim,
and he hurt three people badly before he
was incapacitated for further harm This
is the way he met his fate.
He had been lowering around camp of
Busahiri during the night of June 5, but
was kept off by five large sheep dogs. On
the 7th in the morning woman saw him
in some long grass near the bungalow,
and taking him for large jungle cat after
the fowls ran after him. He charged her,
striking her on the chest, and seized her
by the arm She struck him over the head
with a heavy stick, and, other people
con4 n up. the leopard let GO and ran in
to arden near bungalow. The woman
was round to have two claw wounds on her
chest and six deep bites on her arm.
By this time some twenty persons had
assembled and went into the garden in
! search of the beast. A syce in the services
of the assistant commissioner declared he
believed it was only jackal, but the words
were hardly cut of his mouth when the
leopard, which had been hiding under a
stone, charged straight at the syce with a
roar knocking him down and wounding
him badly. He is badly clawed on both
arms, behind the right ear, and bitten on
the scalp, and would certainly have been
killed had not man named Nazina run
in and driven long spear clean through
the leopard's body. The brute left the
syce and tried to work itself up the shaft
of the spear to get at his new assailant,
but it only succeeded in tearing his cloths,
Nazina escaped unhurt, A mistri ran in
to club. but got clawed on the chin for his
pains, Nazina holding on his spear all the
time. By this time the others, who had
bolted when the leopard charged, return
ed, and the leopard was dubbed to death.

Conscience.

The only safe and proper rule with re-
gard to the Individual conscience Is to let
it operate for yourself and no one else.
Col would never have given separate
conscience to every separate individual if
he had intended that the same conscience
should now and then do moral back. service
for two or three. To fall back once more
upon a familiar feature for illustration.
Consciences are like noses. 1t is just as
unnatural for you to try to do another
mans moral pricking with your conscience
as it is for you to try to do another mans
physical breathing with your nose.

"WHATEvER ISIS BEST"
ELLA WHEELER-WICoX.

l know as my life grows older,
And mine eyes have clearer light,
That under each rank wrong somewhere,
There lies the root of right;
That each sorrow has its purpose,
By the sorrowing oft unguessed;
But as sure as the sun begins morning,
Whatever isis best
1 know that each sinful action,
As sure as night brings shade,
Is somewhere, some time punished,
Though the hour is long delayed;
| know that the soul is aided
Sometimes by the hearts unrest,
And to grow means often to suffer,
But whatever isis best.
| know there is no error
In the great supernal plan,
And all things work together
For the final good of man;
And L know when my soul speeds onward
In its grand eternal quest,
1 shall cry as look back earthward,
Whatever isis best"
