Mr. John T. Barrett resides at No. 3o1 d street

linseed oil meal to determine its value as a
fertilizer, aud their conclusions are worth
noticing. Without going closely into the
analysis, we may say that the fertiizing
constituent, of new process meal, valuing
the nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash
at their market prices, gave the meal a
fertilizing value of s2l per ton, or just
the price at which it can be bought in car
lots; but it.has been demonstrated that not
more than one third of the fertilizing
value Of the meal is lost in feeding, pro-
vided the manure is carefully saved and
properly handled to avoid waste. Thus, if
the meal is used first as feeding stuff
and the residue applied to the land, the
cost of the fertilizlng is reduced by what
ever value the stock may gain from feed
ing. Thus it incontestably offers cheaper
source of fertility than does any of the
strictly commercial fertilizers In field ex-
pertinent a heavy application of the meal
was found to produce a masked increase
of crops, vet not so great as to warrant
using the meal directly for that purpose.
There is no doubt, however, that it would
have given profit if lis feeding value
had been first availed of

FARM NOTES

Hogs that are squealing from cold are
not making pork.
Have regular hours for feeding. Moth
ing is SO valuable as regularity.
The common nettle. weed is frst-rate
food for laying hens. They like it, either
chopped tine, green, or cut up with the
cooked soft food
Pune the apple trees in winter. Saw
ing off few limbs is not pruning. If the
trees have heavy, hanging branches.
shorten them back. Cut away all dead
wood, wherever it may be.
The stock from which our fruit trees are
grown has an important influence upon
their health, frultfulness and longevity.
We must pay more attention to seed and
scion then we have been doing in the
past.
Good animals, good crops, good results
all around on the farm are not the out
come of good luck. 1t is patient, contlnu-
agriculture-not hit-or-miss, happy-go.
lucky course.
1t may be an open question whether it
will pay all farmers to feed cooked food to
their hogs, but there is no doubt that cooked
food will make more flesh than uncooked,
because larger proportion will be digest
ed and assimilated.
We do not advise feeding turnips to
mich cows. Not that they will always
impart favor to the butter, and perhaps
never will, if fed just before milking, but
there are other roots that are better and
which pever flavor the butter under any
circumstances.

81 Can Not Dig -

What a picture of laziness and pride we
have IN The parable of the unjust steward
luke 1919. He says, 81 can not dig,
to beg | am ashamed" He would not
work, and yet he did not want to be class
ed as pauper. He wanted to live by his
wits. Trying to do so he did what was
no better than stealing. But he did it in
the way of business, and everybody smiled
and said, What a shrewd fellow he ISL
There are good many people to-day like
that steward. They dispise manual labor.
They want to be gentlemen, or what they
call gentlemen. e., TO have soft hands
and wear their Sunday clothes every
day. But in order to do this, they must
get money in some way, and they must get
it without working for it. How can this
be done? That is the problem which con-
fronts the proud and penniless American.
And In trying to solve it he meets tempta-
tiops to dishonesty which are exceedingly
insidious. He wants to get into business,
or to get an Office. or to secure an agency;
anything that is genteel, that will deliver
him from the necessity of digging. And
there are INSCRIPTIONS capitalists and
spectators who are looking out for just
such men. They will pay them we'll to do
their dirty work and to lie and cheat for
them, to sell imitation goods or bogus
stocks. The young man must begin, how
ever, by selling himself.-Rusticus in the
Oocidaut

Mutton Breeds.

it is the disposition of many OF the
breeders of other than the mutton breeds
of sheep to make tie statement that new
booa has to be introduced from their
native heather in order to keep up the
standard. This is partially true and it is
right that the very best sheep be secured
for improvement, 10 matter where OBJ
tanned. There is one thing however, that
some breeders lose sight of in their man
agement of mutton breeds; it is the fact
that they require more feed than do the
smaller breeds, and if flock of home
bred mutton sheep have been well fed and
cared for there need be no excuse for see
ing them In such plight as Mr.. Fleharty
found en- the farm he visited. 1t some
times occurs that pastures are cut short
on account of the drought, and the sheep
show it at once. The breeder can buy
grain when be finds he is going to be
short, but he cannot buy pasture as
well. This overstocklng in the times
when drought threatens is one of tie most
effective ways to develop all the scrub
qualities in sheep. The sheep owner who
is not able to find grain for his sheep had
better sell part or all of them and buy
something that will stand starving.
There is nothing that will cause a mutton
sheep with large frame, to look scrubby
sooner than 10 half feed him. A large
frame with half enough flesh to cover it
will make him look quite scrubby in-
deed. There is no denying they fact that
it requires great deal Of feed for the
large sheep, and this is just why some
breeders keep them; the have adopted
this means of turning it into cash. Sheep
with large bodies, which have been we'll
bred, should be well fed if the owner does
not wish to be disappointed.

WOMAN'S BEST AGE.
Various Opinions AS to the Time She APP
pears at Her Best

This question was recently discussed by
an artist, an author and woman of soci-
ely. The artist said he did not like to
paint the portraits of those between the
ages of Is and 40 years. Before Is the
face has an expectancy which charms. 1t
is looking forward with joyous freshness
and hope, and is full of pulling promises.
At ~ the charao' er is formed, and the
lines Of the countenance are stronger IN
the painters study; but in Intervening
years the face has 10 its expectancy. is
apt to be Indifferent, and has no particu-
lar interest.
The author differed. He liked to study
women between the ages of 30 and 40
They had then the experience of the world
and the jOyousness of youth In those
years they were brightest and most inter
esting.
The society woman thought that it was
impossible to give general answers to the
question, as Individual women differ in
regard to the most attractive age. Some
are most charming at go, while others
have passed their prime at co. At 80 or
upward the best nature of a woman will
show to every advantage, but PROBABLY the
balance of opinion turns In favor of from
19 to %.
Taking everything into consideration.
the best answer would be that women are
always interesting to the friends who love
them.-Young Ladies Journal

FARM ND HOME.
OVER THE RIVER.
NANCY ". PRIEST.

Over the river they beckon to me,
Loved ones who've crossed to the further side
The CLEAN of their snowy robes see,
But their voices are lost in the dashing tide.
There's one with rInelets of sunny gold
And eyes the reflection of heavens own blue;
He crossed in the twilight gray ana cold,
And the pale mist hid him from mortal view
we saw not the angels that met him there,
The gates of the city we could not see.
Over the river, over the river,
My brother stands waiting to welcome me.
Over the river the boatman pale
Carried another the household pet:
Her brown cCrls waved in the gentle gale;
Darling Minnie I see her Yeti
She crossed on her bosom her dimple hands
And tearlessly entered the phantom bark;
We watched it glide from the silver sands
And all our sunshine grew strangely dark.
We know she Is safe on the other side;
The gate of the city we could not see:
Over the river, the mystic river,
My childhood's idol is waiting for me-
For none return from those quiet shores
Who cross with the boatman cold and pale;
We hear the dip of their golden oars,
We see the gieam of the snowy sail,
And lo they have passed from our yearning
hearts.
They cross the stream and are gone for aye:
We may not sunder the veil cart,
That hides from Jour vision the gates of day.
We only know that their bark no more
May sail with US o re lIfes stormy sea:
But somewhere | know, on the unseen shore
They watch, and beacon, and wait for me.
And sit and think when the sunsets gold
Is flushing river and hill and shore,
l shall one day stand by the water cold,
And list for the sound of the boatman's oar,
l shall watch for CLEAN of The Tapping sail
shall pass from sight with the boatman pale
To the better shore of the spirit land.
l shall know the loved who have gone before,
And Ioyfully sweet will the meeting be,
When over the river the peaceful river,
The angel of death shall carry me.

CONSUMMATE NERVE
Whiskey Trust Counsel Wants TO Appear
Before Grand Jury,

BosToN, FEB. A most unusual appli
cation was made to Judge Nelson, in the
third district court, today, by counsel for
tie whisky trust. Assistant District At
torney Wyman came before the court to
ask that the grand jury be
excused until February Is, when
Chas. A. Prince, counsel for
the trust, addressed the court, saying,
in view of the fact that it was reported
that the trust was to be indicted by the
grand juTy, and In view of the fact that
Judge Nelson, on Tuesday, mad charged
the Jurors especially with regard to vio-
lations of the antitrust law, he would ask
permission to present to the jury members
of the trust and others as witnesses in
order that it might be shown that there
was no violation of law. Judge Nelson
asked with surprise if it was desired to
bring before the jury persons against
whom it was proposed to find indictments,
and on receiving a reply in the affirmative
peremptorily declined to allow such
course to be pursued. The jury was ex-
cused until February is.

Breaking the Colt.

A run of sleighing makes a good time to
break colts. Hitch the colt up at first
alongside well broken, stady horse and
drive thus until it has become accustomed
to all the tones of command and move

being thoroughly used to driving double
begin with light load on single sleigh.
There is no noise Of wheels, as in buggy or
wagon, and the first drive can be made
without much danger Of accident if the
colt has made gentle by careful handling
before being put into the harness.

Early Lambs.

Many of the early lambs have come in,
and the later ones will come in February
and March. The first days exposure of a
young lamb may be fatal, and if not the
future of the lamb may be Influenced.
Have warm quarters for the ewes that are
expected to come ia, but do not crowd
them. As the early lamb is the one that
pays it should not be retarded in growth
at the start for lack of nourishment or
warmth. Begin to feed them on ground
oats as soon as they will eat. The ewes
should be looked over daily, as they are
subject to milk fever. Plenty of hay
should be given them at this time

The best reading produces the best

beautiful face. We all admire beauty of

to acquire both in measure. The influence

Wholesome Food.

The question now being considered by
well-informed farmers is whether the
swill-barrel should be abolished or not. 1t
is true that many waste substances can be
added to the swil.-barrel and fermented,
but this very fact is used as a reason for
discarding the swill-barreI. The swill
can just as conveniently be given in
fresh and wholesome condition as to
allow it as filth. A mess of fresh skinned
milk and cornmeal or sIop made by
scalding bran or ground grain, will af-
ford wholesome food and avoid disease
germs.
