to be made over or dressed are laid to
one side to be cent to the furrier's; the

Fifty-six years ago, when was still

met with cordial reception on the part

young man with large mustache and

of him. For three days he was my
faithful companion. To be sure, he
could not speak word of Swedish. but

You can never get rid OF weeds If

A lick with the hoe in time saves nine
or ten weeds from disfguring the
field.
1T is to the advantage of farmers
and hog raisers to encourage the de-
maud for lean meat, as it is not only
better food for man, but it is more
cheaply produced.
No self-respecting farmer should
keep a dunghill cock under any cir
cumstances. When this folly is per
petrated it simply shows that GER
tain class of people are not all dead
yet.
Sheep are great weed destroyers,
but they should not be kept solely for
that purpose. When kept for wool or
mutton, or both, a goodly supply OF
suitable food is needed, or failure re
suits
1t is a remarkable fact, but none
