Let's be lovers blithe and bold,
Hot with folly while we may,
For tomorrow we grow old.
Let our eager eyes ehold
Shining wonders on our way,
For tomorrow we grow old.

When the heart and lips are cold,
What viii stir this sluggish clay
When tomorrow we grow old?

Until my place to-day were won.

The waving palm tree becEoned on.

No matter what the danger be;

Yet naught is here but sterile space,
But whirling sand and burning sun,
And hot winds blowing in my face.

THE sAENoERFEsT.
Hundreds Unable to Gain Admission to
the Closing Concert.

the Closing Concert.
Pittsburgh, Pa, June 11.--An Inn
mense audience, exceeding the accred-
tied capacity of spacious Saengerfest
hall, were delighted with the fourth
concert of the Saengerfest, rendered
Wednesday afternoon. The special
feature and attraction was the appear
ance of Frau Kiafsky, the great Ger
man prima donna, and A. l.. Guile,
both of whom Tuesday night gained
new laurels, and by special request,
consented to appear In solo work.
Their reception amounted almost to
an ovation. Almost all TIE great art
lists appeared in the grand closing con-
cert Wednesday, and attracted perhaps
the largest audience Pittsburgh has
ever had at concert. FeoIs had been
expressed that the hall would prove
too large for the occasion, but had its
capacity been increased by one-half, it
wouli only have comfortably seated
the music-loving throng which sought
entrance. Many hundreds were turned
away after all the aisles and available
standing places were filed. Not
lew iecelNeu injuries In the crush, ana
many n fine toilet was ruined.
The first number on the programme.
n composition of Fest Director Zoell-
ner, entitled Midnight at Sedan" was
n musical picture. It's four distinctly
different motives-the stiffness of the
night, the dead raising from the graves,
hate and warlike fury, and the lament
held the assemblnge almost spell
bound. Other prominent features were
FRAN Klafsl<y's rendition of tho aria
20 Honored Halls" from Tanhhaeuser,
and "Brunnhildes Self-Imnclation,"
from the 'Goetterdaemmerun6;" Hans
Sachs address and quintet. from "The
Mastcrsingers," by Mr.. Brockett. and
Miss Lillian Blavelt, Miss Gertrude Stein,
Mr.. Carl Naeser and Mr.. Emil Fischer;
and a number OF German and Dutch
folk songs by the combined chorus.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Give the orchard thorough cultivation
during the early stages of growth.
In setting trees for wind break,
take those of close-growing habit.
Currants will grow and bear fruit 25
years If they nre properly cared for.
If the bark of the fruit trees is split
by frost, cover the wound with grating
wax.
Washing suds and sink water will
help the grapevine wonderfully in It's
growth.
When setting out peach trees cut
them back TO within two feet of the
ground.
by cutting of and burning all affected
branches.
In planting shade trees the hardness
OF the trees should be given preference
over rapid growth.
One advantage of well-drained land
Is that the fruit comes to maturity
earlier than on undrained land.
Generally the plum tree will need jar
ring to prevent the work of the curculio,
no matter what variety has been
planted.
There ought to be plenty of room for
nll kinds of fruit on every farm. Grow
a good supply of small fruits as well as
of tree fruits.
BY stirring the soil after every rain
the weeds will be more evenly destroyed
than in any other way, besides securing
better growth OF plants.
While the best land Is none too good
for strawberries, any land that will
grow good crops of corn or potatoes
will grow good crop of strawberries.
Mulching prevents the early flow Of
sap by preventing the ground from
warming too early, and in this way
often prevents injury by late frosts.--

Why Change In Feed should Always Ne
Made with Caution


Made with Caution
II is one thing 10 have a pleasant
grass flavor and quite another to have
rank grassy odor 70 the milk, traces
OF which will be found In the butter.
The cause for the rank flavor can be
found IN intestinal arrangement due TO
the change of feed. A radical change
In feed should always be made with
caution and be made gradually. To
change suddenly from dry feed TO green
feed will dernnge the digestive appar-
atus as surely as o. sudden change from
green feed TO dry feed. And the change
should always be made when the stom-
ach Is full. That Is, do not give an ami
NAL food to which IL Is unaccustomed
when It's stomach Is empty. Give IL first
q feed of that to which II Ia accustomed.
and then add a little of the new feed.
increasing the proportion of the new
kind of feed with each meal until a full
feed OF the new iSipa Is given, the old
kind being gradually diminished mean
while. In changing 10 grass the way
to apply this method is TO turn the cows
for an hour or SO into the pasture. first
giving them their usual dry feed, then
take them off the pasture for the re-
mainder OF the day. The time they
arc allowed to run in pasture can be
heightened each day until they are left
there all day. This will ordinarily re-
quire but three or four days for the
change, but It is well 10 turn into
pasture OF flush grass but an hour or so
at time when il ~ wet with dew, un-
less the stock had become accustomed TO
full grass previously. That is, chang
ing from a poor pasture 20 a flush pas
ture Is itself liable TO make trouble II
done inconsideratcly. The COW will be
apt TO fill herself with rich grass beyond
what she Is accustomed TO, and IL Will
generate gases in the stomach and cause
bloat at the worst. and when the worst
does not occur there is still danger of
Inflammation of the intestinal canal,
which will cnuse looseness and give the
milk rank odor and flavor. Stock
should therefore be left in the new pas
ture but part of the day Mt first, IL the
feed Is much better than in the old

for both cattle and horses. 1t is simply
a light piece of rope arranged upon the
animals head as halter, then passed
between the forelegs and around the
body, when IL is fastened securely. 1t
should be arranged so that the animal
can just raise It's head TO natural POI
sition, but no further. To jump over n
fence an animal must always raise it's
head above the normal position. II
there appears danger that the animal
when feeding may get forefoot over
the rope IL can be held up close 10 the
breast by light cord passing around
the neck. The rope will stretch some
what with use, but can be shortened
up as required.--N. Y. Tribune.

legged noncompliance with the Illinois
Nag law. The warrants were not served
on the members till Wednesday. They
were here for their regular session and
10 attend the annual commencement eN-
crcises. When completing the business
of the session In the afternoon Deputy
Sheriff Roughton went TO the university
and placed all the members present
under arrest. Those arrested were:
DIR. Julia Holmes Smith, Chicago; Col.
Richard p. Morgan, Dwight; Nelson w.
Graham, Carbondale; j. Il. Armstrong

Ballard, Springfield; /. s. Raymond,
Sidney; Col. N. u. Morrison, Odin; Al
exander Mclean, Macomb. The men,
bers who escaped arrest by not attend
ing the meeting were: Gov. John II.
Altgeld; James w. Judy. Tallula, pres
ident of the state board of agriculture;
S. NJ. Inglis, superintendent of public
instruction, and Mrs. Lucy i. Flower,
Chicago.
The members of the board are grent.y
surprised and mortified over being
brought into court as criminals, bus
they did not have TO spend the night in
Jail. They were accompanied to the
courthouse at Urbana by number of
prominent citizens and leading men,
bers OF the faculty, who all wanted 10
go on their bonds. Judge j. c. Cum
ningham, of Urbana, was taken as bonds
man for the entire list, their bonds
being placed at 5000 each.
Ii is likely that they will appear in
court to-day, and the belief is that they
will enter plea of not guilty. for they
are of the opinion that they have COM
piled with the spirit of the law. for the
institution has for the last six years
kept n large flag floating from the 100
foot pole on the campus. President
Armstrong, of the board, is not in favor
of making a motion to quash the indici-
ment. He is strongly of the opinion
that the university authorities have not
disobeyed the law, and he wants 10 see
them indicated.

FIaxseed Cruel and SKINNED Milk Assure

A c~sf may be fed Skinned milk whel

boiled flaxseed, increasing the ration
gradually to pint day when four
weeks old, and then adding fine mid
dlings or corn and oats ground together,
or pint TO one quart of oats unground.
Flaxseed Cruel, with plenty OF skim
med milk, will produce a very fine
growth, leaving the calf as mellow TO
the touch as II sucking the cow. A calf
two months old will gain three pounds
per day on this ration. The oil taken

fifth of the money value OF the cream.
Butter dnirymen may raise n calf to
each COW upon skinned milk and n
little additional food, such as indicated,
and get one-fourth to one-third as much
profit out of the refuse milk as out OF
the butter. Selling butter robs the
land OF nothing valGable-only carbon
which has no manurial value.
