THE LADY AND THE BOBBY.

A Funny Scene and Quick Repartee
In a ST. Louis Street Car.
The cars on the Fourth street
cable running east were almost de-
serted, when one with fewer passen-
gers on board than any that had
preceded it was passing Lafayette
Park. It had almost reached the
corner of Mississippi avenue when a
young lady of attractive appearance
and genuine refinement boarded it. She
was evidently a young schoolma' am.
She had reached the center of the
platform and was facing the interior
of the car where pleasant faced Of
ficer of Hibernian extraction was
seated, together with one or two
other passengers. AS she was about
to step into the car it started with
that sudden jerk peculiar to the
Fourth street cable. She was of
course thrown forward, and in trying
to fall into a seat fell into the police
officers lap. Everyon in the car saw
just how the accident had occurred
and there was nearly a smile at the
young lady's predicament. She, how
ever, was not the kind to be overcome
by an accident of this kind. By the
time she was on her feet again she dis

A Full Moon.

His name was Moon. He was
member of an association which was
about to hold its first annual banquet,
and Mr.. Moon was down for a speech
He had never made one in his life, but
under pressure, being foreman in the
shop in which most of the members
worked, he had consented in amoment
of recklessness, to do his best. During
the feast, wine flowed freely and Mr.
Moon drank rather more than his
share, but he knew he had a great task
before him and he was obliged to raise
his courage up to the proper pitch
He heard the other speakers one after
another address the assemblage and
begin with: Ladies and gentlemen, -
and when his turn came that was about
as far as he had got toward having
anything to say. He had determined
to say that much anyway and he arose.
unsteadily to his feet AS he bracedi
himself against the table, he chanceds
to look out of the window and he saw
the round yellow orb of night shining
directly upon him. It was an inspira-
ton, and he said beginning as the
others had done:
Ladies and gentlemen; thank you
for this honor, the moon is full with
out and the Moon is full within.n As
he spoke he pointed first to the lumi-
nary through the window and thens
smote himself dramatically upon the.
breast and sat back, or rather fell
back, into his chair. 1t was a short
speech but it made the hit of the

RUSSIAN GIRLS.
They Marry Young After Short and Sweet
Engagements.


Engagements.
The daughter is a great pet in Rus
sian families, perhaps because there
are generally more sons than daugh-
tiers. Take the younger members of
the imperial family as an example, and.
we find twenty-five grand dukes and:
only seven grand duchesses; and this
may be stated to be about the average.
proportion in most families. The.
necessity for men in the rural districts
as assistants in the agricultural labors
of their fathers has given rise to a
saying: Zone son is no son; two sons
are half son; but three are whole
son."
Notwithstanding the pride and salts
faction with which the birth of a boy
is hailed, the little girl is the darling,
the object of the tenderest affection.
and care of parents and brothers, not
to speak of other adoring relatives.
Much is not expected of her in the
way of assistance in the family; she is

circumstances permit, and she takes it.

she does not voluntarily and tacitly;
contribute her share in helping her
mother. Her occupations are much
the same as those of all Euro
pean girls, but parish work in Russia
existeth not for her. She cannot have
classes at Sunday-schools, as religion
is taught by priests or deacons.

Oil Meal for Dairy Cows.

There seems to be a good deal of
misrepresentation as to the effect of
feeding oil meal to. dairy COWS, says
the well known writer on economic
farm subjects, A. L. Crosby, in Ma
tional Stockman. Some think it will
produce abortion. or will ruin the but
ter, or do various other things to the
injury of the cows or their product.
Oil meal is made from faxseed which
is ground and the oil pressed out,
leaving as residue a hard cake; this is
reground and is then the oil meal or
linseed meal of commerce. In the old
process oil meal there is still from to
8 per cent of oil, but this quantity is
not large enough to injure COWS when
they are fed very literally with it. In
fact it is this oil that makes the old
process meal so desirable as feeding
stuff in comparison with the new pro-
cess meal, from which the oil is nearly
all extracted. One effect of feeding

The American system of checking

Live Stock and Farm Notes.
There is no way of cleaning dirty
milk
Every part of the farm should pro-
duce something of value.
Sheep and hogs kept on a wooden
floor will often have deformed hoofs.
Sawdust is good material to use
for bedding during the spring and
summer.
In many cases millet makes a good
crop to cut and feed out during the
summer.
The width of the fence run is an
important item in considering the cost
of fencing.
Cleanliness of the skin. is one i'm
portant item in maintaining health
with the horses.
On old farms at least sheep can be
kept TO an advantage in keeping weeds
down in the pastures.
Salt is good to make plant food in
the soil available, but too much of it
will destroy all vegetation.
Care should be taken to make the
work teams comfortable at night, so
that they may enjoy their nights rest
To a considerable extent, at least
middle fences on the farm should be
built, so that if necessary, they can be
readily moved.
BY letting the calf run with the COW
you may have the satisfaction of rails
ing a good calf, even. if it does not
prove profitable.
Properly built, an all wire fence is
more durable than any other that can
be put up, and considering this, will
in a majority of cases. be found the
most economical. ..r-
The offspring resembles the parent
more frequently thar it does the other
ancestors, hence it is important to have
the personal qualities of the animals
used for breeding of good quality.

whole plant, and does not stimulate
what is left It is quite apt, however,
with very vigorous trees, to cause fruit
buds to start, and may thus be some
times advisable to bring young orchards
more quickly into bearing.
Complete Rations Best For Everything.
Because an animal is fattening is no
reason why it should not have properly
proportional rations, including materi-
al for making bone and muscle, as well
as fat. Corn meal is very largely car
bonaceous; but it is found that when
fed even to hogs that have attained
full growth they will eat enough more
if fed fine wheat middlings, so chat they
will fatten faster than if fed corn meal
alone In the same way, because
growth of frame only is desired, it is
not best to feed only the bone and
muscleforming elements. A lean pig
fed on wheat bran will not grow so
fast nor SO large as if given a diet that
would make some fat as well as growth.
Growing Green Corn for Canneries.
The business of furnishing green
corn for canning purposes is a growing
one, and where land is not too dear it
is profitable. Even a low rate per
dozen of ears amounts to a high price
for corn after it is shelled and dried.
Besides, in most localities, part of the
crop may be sold to city or village
purchasers for home use, at a good
deal better price than Gamers can pay,
the latter acting as the balance which
furnishes a market when it would
otherwise be glutted. Most kinds OF
sweet corn, especially those with small
ears, average much more than one cal
to stalk, and sometimes nearly two
ears on the average of the piece.
