Farm and Garden Notes.

. Air.slacked lime Is good for gals.
, Provide the horsee with low nam
gers.
Beef scraps are excellent for fat-'
tening.
With towels grit takes the place OF
teeth.
Impure water will cause chicken
cholera.
Itpays we'll to shock well the corn
cut for fodder.
Towels enjoy a change Of diet and
pay well for 1t.
Never give young chickens water
before feeding.
i Do not try to keep too many varie.
ties Of poultry.
Gather up the sorghum seed to give
the poulty this winter.
A duck-lesged breed of chickens
would not be a bad Idea.
Do not feed your fowls for twenty
four hours before killing.
Do not allow the spurs on the roos-
ters to grow too long.
Chickens pay better than old towels
which are past tieir usefulness.
Separate the pullets from the cock
erels when three or four months old.
Towels enjoy the dust bath and it
helps to keep them free from vermin.
1t pays we'll to develop the fast walk
ing gait of draught aud farm horses.
Boiled beets make an excellent, sue
culent food for chickens during the
winter.
Let every generation of your poultry
be an improvement on Its predeces-
sors.
1t is the way your ground is titled
rather than The number OF acres that
count.
If YOU have no range for poultry cut
o little grass or clover every day for
them.
Wheat is an excellent food for lay.
ing hens. Now that it is cheap lay In
q good supply.
A scrub will hardly pay for the cost
of raising, but good drsught horses
bring good prices.
Horses fed on early cut and we'll
cured hay will come out in good con-
dition next spring.
A selfish heart is unfrnilful soil in
which to grow the truth.

Regularity Of habits is not only one
of the prime conditions of success IN
secular life, but is also one Of the great
safeguards Of character. The man who
keeps in the beaten way cannot 60 far
wrong. Fixed hours for work for eat
ing and sleeping, for reading and
writing, and for praying, should be
cultivated as far as possible. A good
habit is one of the best friends that
any man eyer had and a bad one Is
one of the worst.

Sayings from SpurgeOn.

When a man is going down, don't
increase his trouble; when everybody
is blaming him, do not swell the cho-
rus of cenSure.
Answer all who slander you, and
you will have vocation for life. Pros
ecute every slanderer, and you will
need court to yourself.
1t would do many an employer good
to live for week on the small wages
he pays his men on Saturday.
There are no chance shots. An over
ruling Providence arranges even the
hurly-burly Of battle. The arrow
which pierces between the joints of
the harness bears a message from God.

because he is the victim Of this kind OF
selfwrought delusion. Cell 1t SO, and

Open Ears.

Slander would starve and die If no

There are so many open mouths be.
cause there ase 30 many opel ears. Ii
you listen to islander, you are equally
guilty with the one who tells, ana an
old writer says you ought both to be
hung-the one by the tongue, the other
by the ear. He or she who tells you
the faults OF others intends to tell

Yawning in company is admittedly
on instance of bad manners, and If it
cannot be suppressed, it is always con-
cealed as far as possible. But the act
of yawning otherwise serves q very
good purpose. High medical anthor-
tiles deIares that it often gives instan-
cons relief in cases of catarrh and other
affections of the throat, by putting the
muscles of the pharnyx under a kind
of massage treatment.

The settlement of the Behring Sea
difficulty by peaceful arbitration will
give America and England a higher

years in bloody war and sacrificed mil

human lives trying to force each other
to terms.

Example vs. Argument.-It is not
necessary that we should answer all
the arguments of unbelievers against
our faith. Some of the arguments re-
late to the conduct Of protesting Chris
tians. We may not be able to defend
the example which others set. It does
not follow that we are to yield to the
argument. We are responsible espe-
cially for the example which we set.
II this is right, our argument is un-
answerable.
