..They Never Touched It..

To those worthy souls who every now
and again start out to annihilate the BIZ
cycle, we. respectfully submit the fol.
lowing little boys story, which was
told several years ago by the San Fran,
cisco Examiner, to illustrate some SINH.
larly impractical crusade:
"One time there was a young cote
witch felt butty. and there was a ole
ram witch lay in the road, half sleep,
chune his cud. The cote he had been
shet up in n paster oil his life, an had
never saw ram, and he sed to his sis
ter, the cote did, You jest stan still an
Sc me wipe that freek off the face OF
the erth.' s
$50 the cote he went up before the
ram an stompt his feets an shuke his
head real friteful, but the ram he did
ent git up, but only jes KEEP chune his
cud and wotched out between his
lashes. Bime by the cote he backed OF
and luke Il run. an then arose mp in the
air an come down with his he'd on the
rams he'd, wack! The gOte's he'd was
busted, but tine ole ram he never wank
his eye. Then the old ram he smiled
with his mowth, an sed to the butte
gote's sister, Pears to me, miss, that
kangaroo OF yourn is nifty careless
where he lites; he come gum dasted

horticultural Hints.

Cultivate a hometown market.
There Is a form of blight working up
on apple, cherry and ounce trees, which
is quite destructive.
Are the young trees In the orchard
starting in the right position-leaning
little to the southwest?
The cultivation of the growing crops
should be the principal occupation Of
the hortdculturist In midsummer.
Do you assert and gradesyour produce
as well as you know how2s You may be
losing money because you don't do so.
In making up the selections of va.
rieties of apples for a new family or
cbard, include good number OF sweet
kinds.
II weeds have been kept down In the
early part OF the summer, 1t Is usually
sufficient to 60 over garden and flower
beds once week after the first Of Au-
gust.
With all grated stock some attention
Is necessary the first summer to keep
down the prouts which will start freely.
and which, IL allowed to grow, will rob
the CRAFTS.
Celery. is usually planted In July.
The soil should be moist and very rich.
1t needs good cultivation to make 1t
grow rapidly, but 1t must not be hoed
when wet with dew or rain.

lie thought he had a particularly easy
victin In Edward laval, n messenger
boy. Edward had fondness for keep
ing his money, and so backed away
when the monkey approached him
Virginia then took Heroic measures
lie climbed upon La,walps' neck and
began to chew 1t as IL messenger boys
were his best beloved meal.
Capra, the organ and the monk were
taken to a police court, and while the
evidence in thesease was being taker
Virginia mounted the desk and went
through the pockets of the Judge. He
kept all the coin found there and car
ried it to his master. The greenbacks
he threw away.
Good Lord!' cried the Justice. "I'l
put that creature under bond to KEEP
the peace" The bond was drawn and
signed, and the monk made his mark
with as much serenity and dignity rs
must have marked old John Hancock's
signing of the Declaration Of indie
pendence.

Strmps of old trees that have out
lived their usefulness and been rele-
gated to the wood pile are not uncom-
monty seen upon lawns, and many at
tempts are made to turn them to arts
tic and useful account. The simplicity
Of tue plan illustrated in Farm and
Home commends itself. The stump is
first sawed to fat surface and then
fitted with top Of thick boards Of the
desired dimensions. Four rustic sup
ports or brackets are placed under
meath at the four corners. These
should be as much az possible in their
natural state, with any little crooked
ness or knots allowed to show, as they
add much to the pretty effect on the
whole. The edges. too, Of the top
board may be given a rustic tone by

POultrY Notes.


Scrub chickens are out of date. They
don't pay.
Clean the nests regularly, to keep
them free from vermin.
Persons who do not take a natural
pleasure in fancy poultry are not likely
to succeed with them.
The possibility of profit in raising tur-
keys comes from their ability to picl;
up a good part Of their living.
Rubbing the heads and thighs of
fowls with rag dipped in oil is an ex
cellent thing to keep of vermln.
From five geese can be picked pound
of feathers every six weeks. These
will sell for 40 cents or more.
When the cockerels begin to pull the
pullcts about and worry them, the
sexes should at once be separated.
When incubator chicks are put with
a hen, always be sure that she has no
lice. A little lard and sulphur applied
under the wings and about the head
will get away with any louise in two or
three days.
Any attempt through the use of stim.
ulants or any unnatural methods to in
crease the number or fertility Of the
egg, always brings disastrous results
to the breeder. whether fancier or mar
ket man.
