THE GIRL WHO HADN'T TIME.

1 know a little lassie-yes, know her very
we'll;
Her name, you ask? don't beileVe sheu hho
to have me tell;
But, suppose, I'll have to call her something
in my rhyme.
And so I'll name her Gust pro tem) "The girl
who hadn't time"
This morning. at the breakfast table, 1 was
much afraid
Her hair had not been combed at all-'twas sucn
a "toused' braid.
She "hadn't time" to comb 1t! Ha! all very
well, mayhap;
But, wonder where she got the time to take
the second nap?
And then she "hadn't time enough to get to
school in season,
And then she missed her lesson and the teacher
asked the reason.
Why, she hadn't time to learn it! Now, l think
it queer. don't you,
Where she found the time to read that book of
fairy tales quite through?
O, she's always very busy when the table
should be set
If we waited her convenience, why we might
be waiting yeti;
And both her brothers know quite we'll that she
could never stop
For the fraction of jiffy just to help them
mend their top.
All mel The fact, fear. that each unbiased
mind must strike,
Is, the things she hasn't time for are the things
she doesn't like.

HORSES.

A light grain ration should be fed the
weaned colts daily. Give this, even if
they have good pasturage. Procure a
good development of bone and muscle,
and the proper ration and an opportunity
for exercise are important factors.
Unless sufficient amount of food is
given the colts to maintain good growth
what food is given is largely lost. Keep
thrifty. A moderate ration of un-
threshed oats, run through a cutting
box, and little bran added, makes a
first class feed for them, and an economi-
cal one.
II you can get what you pay for. do
not hesitate about the stallion fee. The
superior value of the colt will more than
balance the increased cost, and no one
will dispute that the cost of raising the
two will be the same.
Variety is essential. No one kind of
food is perfect. Even when horses have

The fine team which gives the owner
so much pride often does not remain
fine long, for with hard work and lack
of care it soon becomes stiff and un-
kempt. They were bought for their
beauty, but they cease to have the care
and food they once had. 1t is not pos

SWINE,

Soaked oats promote growth in young
pigs very rapidly. but they are rather
an expensive food, and the result should
be carefully observed as you go along.
1t is possible they will not return you

good many youngsters in our stock

clover. give plenty of roots with mill
feed to those pigs which are just be-
ginning to look sharply for something
to eat.
Worms are not infrequently the cause
OF losses. preventing hogs from making
the gains they otherwise would. If
given free access to salt and ashes at all
times they will have but little trouble
from this source. Charcoal is correc.
tive for the digestive organs. and they
will avail themselves of it readily when
overfed or suffering from constipation.

August. To grow them for sale at that
season pigs should be narrowed late in
autumn, and have the very best Of win.

IT you can succeed in getting the aged
boar fat. and also the SOW of many years
you will find more profit in converting
them into lard than in selling them on
foot at such prices as animals of this
grade usually bring.
The quality and high price of English,
Irish and Danish bacon is due. in part,
to the feeding, and partly to the curing
OF the meat. The finest is grown upon
the smaller grains, peas, potatoes, skim
milk and whey. Fat, corn fed hogs do
not make the best Denmark sells over
two million pounds of bacon every year
to England.
Best results come from sows which
are not too large, as they are not so
liable to lie on their pigs. Even where
the six or eight hundred pound SOW is
kept for show purposes, successful
breeders make use of the smaller ones,
and seldom lose their pigs from this
cause.
The best profit in hog feeding results
when desirable weight can be made
with the least corn. There is a point
where the increase of proportionate
weight for each blu shell fed begins to
diminish. A further encouragement is
in the fact that the market is not calling
for as heavy weight as formerly.

POULTRY.

To save washing the eggs, cover the
nests at night. or have them where they
cannot be soiled. SoiIed eggs will not
bring top prices nor the best customers,
neither will they add to your reputation
as careful man. Produce is often sold
on the merits of the man rather than
because OF it's own quality.
The farmers wife has more patience
and fidelity ia her make up, and for
some reason she also seems to have
more knack. Because of these traits
the art Of poultry raising is more readily
acquired by her; and why should not
more women pursue it as a source Of
revenue?
1t is true that poultry will not pay-if
you give them less care than you do
other stock, pay no heed to breeding,
neglect their quarters. feed without sys.
tenn, nor save their droppings for fertil-
User upon your garden.
After fixing up the hen house, SO that
it will be secure and tidy for the winter,
take your spray pump and give it a good
soaking with kerosine emulsion. Next,
whitewash with lime and carbolic acid
mixture. All this is necessary to get
rid of the summer stock of lice, and just
now is the time to be at it.
1t is good plan this fall to take out
two or three inches of earth from the
floor of the coops and put in fresh: it is
often filthy and full of pests. Even burn
out the nest boxes. and then dip them
in solution Of whitewash. 1t will not
be amiss pour coal oil over the perches-
and set it afre.

Ownership has limitations, and in.
cludes no right to neglect, torment or

food, kind care, and to be as happy as
their masters. 1t is never wise to do
wrong; neither is it good policy to
starve, overwork or abuse a horse. IT,
never pays.

attorney held that petty larceny was

action OF interest and importance Taken
by Venezuela and England.
London, Feb. 12.-It is announced
from good sources that Venezuela has
practically decided to send a represen-
tative to London with power to open di-
rect negotiations with Great Britain for
settlement of the boundary dispute
Washington, Feb. 12-Ambassador
Bayard has briefly informed Secretary
Olney by cable that the British govern
ment has acceded to the request of the
Venezuela commission to supply all of
the information in its possession on the
boundary line between Venezuela and
British Guiana.
Touching the report from London,
that Venezuela is about to send repre-
sentative to England 10 negotiate di-
rectly for the settlement of the bound
airy question, nothing official can be
learned here.
London, Feb. 12.-In the house of
commons today debate on the address in
reply to the queens speech was resum-
ed. John Dillon said that the English
people had learned that President Cleve-
lands message was not an election
dodge, but spoke the voice OF the Ameri-
can nation, which was not afraid to face
the arbitrament of war if England re-
fused arbitration. But arbitration was
to be accepted now, after America had
been forced to threaten. 1t would have
been more decent if Great Britain had
accepted arbitration when Secretary
Olney suggested it. He warned the gov
eminent in conclusion that the Irish
party would resist to the utmost any
idea Of war between Great Britain and
the United States.
i. Athrely-Jones, Radical member of
parliament for Northwest Durham, will
move an amendment to the address de-
ploring the absence from the queen $
speech Of an assurance that the bound
airy dispute with Venezuela will be re-
ferred TO arbitration in accordance with
Americas suggestion.
