NOVEMBER VINES.

Dry leaves upon the wal,
Which flap like rustling wings and seek es-
cape,
A single eomely cluster on the grape
Hangs heavy-that is ALL
1t hangs forgotten quite,
Forgotten in the purple vintage day,
Left for the sharp and cruel frosts to Stay,
The daggers of the night
1t felt the thrill of spring,
1t had its blossom time. its perfumed moons,
Its pale green sphere were rounded to sweet
rune
OF summers whispering,
Through balmy morns of May
Through fragrances of June and warm July
And feryid August heats it hung on high,
And purpled day by day.
OF fair and mantlng shapes
No Drawer, sweeter cluster on the tree,
And what then is this thing has come TO thee,
Among the other grapes?
Thou lonely tenant of the leafiess vine
Granted the right to grow thy mates beside,
To ripen thy sweet juices, denied
The place among the wineP
All! we are dull and blind
The riddle is too hard for us to guess,
The why of happy or unhappiness
Chosen-or left behind!
But everywhere Il host
OF lonely lives shall read their type In thine.
Grapes that shall never swell the tale OF WINE,
Left out to meet the frost.

crease the consumption OF our pork,
while one almost as important is that it
enables us to increase the vigor and
stamina of our herds
There is a positive must in feeding
the hogs something more bulky and
less concentrated than corn if the feeder
expects to keep them in healthy con-
dition for any great length of time,
There is nothing much better or cheap
or than pumpkins to feed with corn,
and, when thus fed, they will fatten
faster than when upon corn only.
Pig raising is almost a necessity
where cows are kept and there is plenty
of skinned milk. Pigs can not be kept
on this only, but it is great help. and
it would often be question what to do
with the milk if there were no pigs to
drink it up. The calves and poultry
would not suffice unless the dairy was
small or the feeders many.
1t is the steady, even going farmer
who comes out best in the end. 1t is
not best to rush out of pig raising be-
cause Of. the low market, and then rush
in again when it comes up; yet there
are great many who do just this sort
of thing.
A young SOW does not produce as
good litter OF pigs as does an older one,
and it is good plan when good moth
or pig proves to be such to keep her for
her worth for several years. rather than
to try young sows every time. There is
much difference in the mother qualities
of sows.
Hogs should positively not have &C.
cess to ponds or wallows, for these
afford most favorable conditions for the
development of disease germs. The
drinking water should be from deep
wells. The same rules apply as with
human beings; and the food should be
clean and fed in clean vessels or upon
clean floors

placed in pens where there has been
disease for three months.
The actual worth of potatoes as a
stock feed is greater than any analysis
will show, because of the value of the
tubers as promoter of both good con-
dition and appetite. 1t is a question
whether it will pay to sell potatoes at
90 cents bushel when we have hogs to
which to feed them.
The reason that diseases of swine
cause greater loss than that with any
other class of animals is because of un-
natural and detrimental conditions.
They are compelled to slake thirst in
stagnant pools. and sleep and eat in

POULTRY.

The science of breeding and of man
agement with opultry is much the same
as with other farm stock. A good strain
of good breed will pay better than
variety Of breeds; and breeders must
establish their regulations as trust
worthy and successful breeders of pure
bred stock.
Sell all the surplus hens and cocks
now and feed the laying hens more liber-
ally; in fact. if there is no reason to the
contrary, sell every cock off the place.
and replenish 10 the spring. Then rid
the hen house of vermin if you expect
to get eggs this winter.
1t is certainly unfair to leave the
chickens for your wife to attend. and
then take or demand the egg and chick
en- money fol- your own use. Not only
prepare for her fowls the best of quar-
ters, but lend hand at all the heavy
work in keeping it clean, and then tell
her to go in and win.
Concerning incubators and artificial
incubation, it is much as it was with the
introduction of reapers and mowers.
Many declared their machines would
not work, while others worked the same
without trouble. So some succeed with
incubators, while others have nothing
but failures.

Portable houses, of boards or bricks or

can have the eggs to sell.
Poultry should never be overcrowded
space is too cheap for that. Let them
have sufficient ground room, and also
ample in which to roost. Bad air is
worse than cold air, and there will be no
thriving in it. Get in load of road
dust for their use before the ground
freezes; they will want bath now and
then.

YOU NEVER CAN TELL.
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

You can never tell when you send a word
Like an arrow shot from a bow
BY an archer blind-be 1t cruel or kind,
Just where it will chance to go.
Itmay pierce the breast of your dearest friend,
Tipped with its poison or balm;
To strangers heart in life's great mart
1t may carry its pain OF its calm.
You never can tell when you Go an act
Just what the result will be;
But with every d ed you are sowing Seed
Though its harvest you may not see.
Each kindly act is an acorn dropped
In Gods productive soil;
Though YOU may not know, yet the tree shall
grow
And shelter the brows that toll.
You never can tell what your thoughts will do
In bringing you hate and love;
For thoughts are things, and their airy wings
Are swifter than carrier dove
They follow the law of the universe
Each thing must create its kind;
And they speed DER the track to bring you
back
Whatever went out from your mind.

Selected Story.
HARVESTING On ROUND TOP.

TT is an old story that has been
handed down in the annals OF
the families whose ancestors had a
part in the great harvesting, and has
so often been repeated with pride by
the old end listened to with interest
by the young that it has acquired
certain dignity. So many have ex-
pressed the wish that it might be
preserved in print, that l have en-
deavored to crafty them by noting it
down as heard it from the lips of
an aged aunt, whose grandmother
was one of the harvesters.
1t was long while ago. when the
country was new, and when the first
little detachment from the Boston
colony came to settle about here. For
fear of the Indians, who troubled
them a little now and then, they
thought best to build their log
houses near together in the bend of
what was called later the town brook.
To the north was the great round
hill, as protection against the blasts
of winter, and in front broad sweep
of meadow that gave the situation its
chief attraction. On the plateau be-
tween stood the Lighthouses OF the
"Neighborhood," as it was called,
and afterward Emerson Neighbor-
hood" because it was said there was
Emerson blood in every one of the
original families, and each of these
families owned a strip of land be-
ginning on Round Top and ending
at the Great River.
At first the men were industrious,
and set to work with will to clear
the land and to make comfortable
homes, and to establish schools and
churches, the little settlement being
one of the tiny rootlets of the great
Christian nation that was to be.
Soon, however, fellow named Dun
can came from no one knew where,
and took up tract of land further
up the brook, where there was a
water privilege, and instead OF the
sawmill they were planning to have
there, he put up distillery to make
the good grain raised on the new
land into liquor. That was the open
ing of door through which the de-
mon of drink inevitably stole in,
putting an end to all true progress,
except such as the women were able
to make.
The settlers who came to reinforce
the pioneers were not of the best;
and for the children growing up to
be young men and women there were
no advantages but such as the moth
ers were able to give them. The
girls were bright, industrious and
good, learning to spin and to weave,
to knit and to sew, to cook and be
thrifty housekeepers, and they could
read and write and figure a little,
and had all of them much knowledge
of the Bible.
But the boys grew up to hunt, fish,
