The FERRY.


came DER the terry alone TO night,
The ferry cold and dark
And never a golden ray or spark
caught from welcoming light
But when we passed the murky bend,
And our feet had gained the bank,
Nor more my shiverlng spirits sank
found a waiting friend
Oh, his words were kind, his hand-clasp
warm,
AS he cheerily led the way.
And all the sorrows OF the day
We're dspeled In happy charm.
All, sin my wearied eyes before
Life's stream flows deep and wide;
But when my soul has braved the tide
And sights the unfading shore
pray that one Of spirit kin
Who dwells in that land so fair,
With o smile Of greeting will meet me
there
Aud tenderly lead me In.

maker, in an Irish village and lived in
very humble style, occupying rooms in
the rear of his small ship. But Ike
many old-time cobblers he had more
than share of learning and was witty
and sarcastic in argument His son
was sent to the local grammar school,
and one of his old chums there was M.
c. Hennessey, now a Rochester shoe
manufacturer. He says that young

THE question of how many bees
make pound is answered by writer in
the American Agriculturalist. Careful
weighing, states the writer, shows that
an ordinary bee, not loaded, weighs
the one five-thousandth part of a pound,
so that it takes five thousand bees, not
loaded, to make pound But the loaded
bee, when he comes in fresh from the
fields and flowers loaded with honey or
bee bread, weighs nearly three times
more, that is to say, he carries nearly
twice his own weight. OF loaded bees,
there are only about /, 500 in the pound.

AN interesting example of electricity
as applied to farm work is now in oper.
alton at Scotch farm. The whole Of
the usual farm machinery, such as
.threshing, sowing, corn threshing and
the like, is here driven by an electric
motor. The electricity is generated by
water power, the turbine wheel which
drives the dynamo being about 1000

TO the house and farm, in each of
which a storage battery is placed.
These supply the electric current foi
lighting and motive purposes when the
