"FROM SHADOw--SUN,"

LEARN as the years roll onward
And leave the past behind
That much L have counted sorrow
But proves that our God is kind
Ihat many flower longei for
Had hidden thorn Of pain:
And many Il rugged by-path
Led to fields of ripened grain.
The clouds but cover the sunshine,
They cannot Danish the sun;
And the earth shines out the brighter
When tho weary rain is done.
We must stand in the deepest shadow
To see the c!oarest light;
Aad often from wrongs own darkness
Comes the very strength oIright.
Ihe sweetest rest is at oven,
After a wearisome day,
When the heavy burden Of labor
Has been borne from our hearts away.
An / those who have never known sorrow
Cannot know the infinite peace
That falls on the troubled spirit,
When it sees, at last, release.
we must live through the dreary winter
1t we wouli value the spring
And the WOO Is must be cold and silent
Bifore the robins sing.
The flowers must lie buried fn darkness
Before they can bu and bloom;
ana the sweetest and warmest sunshine
Comes after the storm and gloom.
So the heart from the har lest trial
Gains the purest JOY of all,
And from lips that have tasted sadness
Tho sweetest songs will fall
For as peace comes after suffering,
And love is reward for pain,
SO. after earth is heaven
And out of our loss the gain.
Agnes l.. Pratt.

The proposition of some romantic
writers to put their romances to the
test by actually living through the ex-
periences described should be dis.
oouraged, maintains the Chicago Rec
ord. Anyone trying to live the ex-
perlences of romance of the modern
sensational school would come into
contact with the police before he had
hvedpast the first chapter.

KEEPING APPLES IN WINTER.

One method suggested for keeping
apples during the winter is to pack
them in perfectly dry oats, not per
mitting one apple to touch the other.
If wrapped in paper before packing in
the oats the apples will keep all the
better. They may be packed in boxes
or barrels, and if put up in On attrac-
tive manner will bring good prices.
Apples have been higher in price than
oranges for the past four or five years,
and are always salable after cold
weather sets in. New York Observer.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES

Milk is eighty-seven per cent water.
Cheese is the most concentrated form
of milk.
Silage of corn and clover is believed
to be the fodder of the future.
Dairy salt is as sensitive as milk or
cream to odors, and should be equally
guarded from them.
Like corn, wheat is better for slow,
hard work, than for speed. Oats and
hay are best for fast-goers.
Feed alone will never control the
value of milk. Tho individuality of
the COW has much to do with it.
Wheat is more u growth than fat
producer, is good for young animals,
but should be coarsely ground before
feeding.
Grain alone is too highly concen-
trated food for horses. They must
have some "roughness" with it, such
as hay, straw or fodder.
The man who expects the biggest
success in dairying must have dairy
cows. The all-around COW is not and
never will be shining success.
~ Cultivation may be stopped late in
the season, and crop can then be
sown upon the land. This crop may
serve as cover or protection to the
soil, and as green manure.
Trotting stock, except for extreme
speed, Is suffering from over-produc-
tion, but there is and probably always
will be profitable market for hand
some, useful, half-bred hackneys.
Never believe the man who says he
can remove spavine of ring-bone and
leave no blemish. Even if he calls
himself professor, do not question
his title-that is what he is and all
he is.
Two parts each OF bran and ground
wheat and one of chopped oats make
the best ration for brood mares. They
should be given about three pounds of
it, three times day, with hay or
straw.
Feed that will mako q pound of beef
will make a pound of butter or two
pounds of cheese. If butter and
cheese bring more than beef there is
money in dairying, rather than stock
raising.
Barn manures are generally more
economically used when applied to
farm crops than when applied to Or
chards; yet they can be used with
good results, particularly when rejuve-
mating old orchards.
Whole wheat should not be fed to
horses, they swallow it without chew
ing, and 1t ferments in their stomachs,
producing indigestion and collie, or
passes through unchanged. 1t should
be either soaked to burst the grains,
or coarsely ground, for the same pur-
pose.
In general, the commercial complete
fertilizers are less practical for or
chards than fertilizer made for the
occasion out of materials evidently
needed by the trees; but the com.
plete fertilizers give much better re-
suits than the prevailing indifference
and neglect.
Any COW that will give less than
twelve pounds of solids in every 100
of her milk, three pounds of which
should be butter fat, is not profitable,
and should be converted into beef.
There should be thirteen pounds of
solids in every 100 of milk, with four
pounds OF actual butter fat.

ECONOMY OF SHELTER.


The time is at hand when the wise
and merciful man will see to it thai
his live stock are properly sheltered
during the winter months. Warmth
and comfort are essential to health
and thrift. If they are not provided
IN attempt to supply them will be
made by an increased CONSUMPTION ot
food. This is costly substitute and
an unsatisfactory one, as it cannot
prevent the check which the growth
will receive. Like all substitutes II
sometimes fails to accomplish the end
designed, and the animal then GROWS
sick and weakly.
II, on the other hand, the animal is
tougnenei and hardened by exposure,
what Is gained? The extra feed he has
consumed is more valuable than tho
shelter which would have avoided it's
need, his stunted growth will never be
made up, and the toughening and
hardening of his constitution, on
winch 80 much stress is often laid, has
resulted in deterioration in quality.
The native steer is harder than the
Shorthorn, but which makes the best
beefP The scrub COW will bear more
exposure than the delicate Jersey, but
which yields the richest milkP II is a

DANGER OF FEEDING WHEAT TO uoRsrs

pANaEh OF FEEDING WHEAT TO HORSES.
This winter great many are ad-
vocating or considering the advisable
lfy OF feeding wheat to horses on ac-
count OF the cheapness of this feed,
and few have raised the alarm against
such practice. While this grain may
prove OF advantage to hogs and other
animals, it is certainly unsuited to
horses, except in the very smallest
Quantities, and then more as medicine
than as food. 1t is much letter for
an old horse than for a young growing
animal, and while it may be fed with
lmpunity to horse twenty or thirty
