A LITTLE CHILD.

What's sweeter than little child
Sister or brother,
That clinging to her skirts is styled
The pet Of mother?
Then brooks that brighten golden sands
Its eyes are clearer;
We hold the little dimpled hands,
And God seems nearer.
Than gold refined and thrice refined,
Its feet are finer;
With 1t within our hearts enshrined,
Love seems diviner.
With its wee arms about our neck
In baby fashion,
Our hearts, that may have suffered
wreck,
Melt with compassion.
A thousand things to us it saith
Each day in seven.-
Things that delight US, and its breath
Is breath from heaven.

prefer the egg producing breed, and
recommend the white, black and brown
Leghorn; also the black Spanish. Next
to the breeds depends the kind of food.
Bones fresh from the butcher which
have meat adhering to them are the
best, as the more meat the better. The
two combined are almost perfect egg
producing food.
If hen can be made to lay one extra
egg per week in winter that egg will
pay for all the food she can consume
For winter one pound of cut green
bone and one quart of grain will be
sufficient for sixteen hens. In summer
the bone will suffice alone for the days
food
A few hens, kept on such cheap
diet and producing a large amount OF
eggs, bring in a good steady profit,
while large number of hens that con-
sumo a larger amount and more ex-
pensive food, and only producing few,
if any eggs, are only a loss to their
owner. So the egg producers are the
breed I should recommend for profit

distribution and diffusion of moisture

How often have we seen certain grow
ing crops that were parched and
shriveled by lack Of moisture, fully re-
stored by a thorough stirring of the
soil
The error is often made of assuming
that the sole object sought by the hoe
and cultivatof is TO arrest the growth
of weeds. The statement is not in
frequently heard. that this or that
crop is free from weeds and hence
needs no cultivation. The person who
grows his crop with this understanding
is pretty certain to be disappointed in
results. Except in rare cases and
under unusual conditions, nothing can
compensate for the lack of good Guilt

HOW TO WASH cEILpREN.s HEADS

Place the child in a high chair; then
fasten a towel around the neck and
begin operations. With a soft nail
brush apply the suds, and brush and

the scalp is perfectly clean, which will
be accomplished in very short time.
Rinse well and dry thoroughly. Chill
dren never object to this method of
proceeding, as the water does not get
into eyes and ears. 1t is much less
laborious for the mother, and less in
convenient for the children, than any
method | have ever tried.

stead of using dipping-boards, the wax
comes out in a continuous sheet from
the machine and is wound up on a
bohbin just like so much ribbon.
Nearly all advanced beekeepers use
more or less foundation, some using
only small strips as starters, but the
majority using full sheets both for
brood-combs and sections. For brood
combs, foundation is used of different
thickness, all the way from four square
feet or less to the pound up to eight
feet or more. Thinner foundation is
used for sections, measuring perhaps
ten square feet to the pound, and ex-
ira thin goes twelve or more to the
pound.-National Stockman
