II was In the year 1885 that q resident Of
Louisville, who died many years before, in the
closing days OF the nineteenth century, came
back TO earth, And he made his way To The city
OF his birth, for It had been granted him as a
special favor TO visit once more in the form Of
q human.
But when he entered the city, he Eazed about
him at the tall buildings aud the wonderful
signs OF Improvement, and he grew afraid lest
he had missed Louisville and wandered into
Jefersonville, or some other strange land. 30
he looked about in sore amaze and wot
not where lie was at. Until at last lie
sought a policeman whom lie saw standing
on the corner. His costume was diff

Aim for the TOP.

AS long as the highest prices are paid
for the best, the most enterprising
farmers will spare neither pains nor ex-
pense to produce the best, and If their
neighbors do not exert themselves to
keep up, they soon will find themselves
In the background. Our farmers must
keep abreast Of the times. They must
think; they must read: they must study;
tney must experiment; they must exert
their minds to the fullest extent to drag
out from mother earth her secrets Of
fertility. Let them do It and she viii
reward them with fertile fields and
good crops In abundance, and they will
enjoy the richest blessings Of the most
satisfying and noblest occupation on
earth. The wide-awake farmer who
has studied up agriculture can always
live as good as any other professional
man, very often much better. For pure
and fresh fruits, vegetables, butter,
eggs and meat there is no one to COM
pete with the farmer.--Practical Farm.

A Homemade Windmill.

A windmill such as is portrayed be-
low can be made by any ingenious
farmer at trihing expense. For an
upright to place the windmill on, use
6 by inch elm scantling. Cut Pinch
strip four feet long from the center and
run 1t down on the cribbing of the well.
Two bolts, a, a, were riveted through
upright to cribbing. Two braces, b. of
2 by 4 inch scantling make the upright
secure. To upper end of upright is bolt
ed piece of old pump piping about two
feet long for the sucker rod to work
through, as well as for the windmill to
turn and face the wind. The crosspiece
upon which the windmill works, d, con-
tains a hole just large enough to allow
1t to turn easily on this pipe. The shaft
from the windmill to pitman passes
close at one side Of this pipe. The tail
or vane Is put on the opposite side of
the crosspiece to the fan and balances
It To prevent the main vane from hold
Ing the fan too straight to the wind In a
