LIVE STOCK POINTERS.

If the sheep on the farm must he sold,
sell them fat.
DO not make the slops from the
kitchen answer for water.
There is always more or less loss
when an inferior sire is used.
1t will help maintain health if the
hogs have pure, fresh water every day.
The putting in and culture of the
crops has much to do with their pro-
ductiveness.
The farmer ought to be good judge
Of live stock and know how to buy and
sell to the best advantage,
When the sheep are sheared is one
of the best times to determine what
sheep should be kept and what sold.
It is the steady, quiet horse that can
usually be depended upon to do the
biggest days work during hot weather.
With all classes Of stock it is better
to wait until the grass in the pastures
has made good growth before turn
ing in.
In the end nothing pays so well as
thoroughness in all of the details OF
farm management and in the care of
The stock.
The calf that is to make good beef
animal should be made to grow rapid
ly from the start, and good feeding is
Of course necessary.-Farmer's Union.

more, beyond this. Merry all of her
writings are in, the nature of folklore,
carefully collated and edited. Every
song and tale has come down through
long centuries, if not ages. They were
told or sung, whispered or crooned, by
mothers long before Caesar crossed the
British channel. They were transmitted
from mother to children, remembered,
ard again transmitted. Every now and
then some clever brain wc;!ld make an
improvement or alter LIE.
Discords became musical and TRACE
dies were made delicious with grim

race was expressed in this litera ture OF

Priscilla Alden undoubtedly told of
Humpty DurnPty's woes to the Off

Rocked By Baby on the Tree Top" to
two, generations of little Puritans and
Pilgrims.
Just exactly what they said and sung
we do not know and probably never
will know. Strangely enough, although
millions upon millions of human beings
have gone through Mother Goose melo-
dies and have carried large parts Of
them in memory, nobody until the time
of Mrs. Elizabeth Goose thought it
worth while to confdc the pleasing In
sant one-cent compositions to paper and
ink.
The fact that she did this, and 1t in
an ago when there were no schools of
philology, no folklore associations, no
child science, nor kindergarten bust
ness, shows her to have been q woman
of extraordinary genius.

The English language had been spoll-
en- for many centuries when DR.. Samuel
Johnson made the first real dictionary
Of our speech.
Mrs. Goose did the same thing for the
immortal literature of early childhood.
How far she has improved it, how far
she softened down the rough, coarse,
and vulgar expressions of antiquity, we
can only guess. She must have done
much in this direction, because in her
book there is not the slightest unpleas-
Gnt word, line, or thought.-Chicago

PLEA For HE elRps.
Their Destruction Is Endongering
tic Forests end OrcI:uras.

Their Destruction Is Endongcring
tl.c Forests and Orchards.
\ Flea for the birds is being widely
disseminated, in the form CT circular
which contains some earnest woMis
from Mrs. Caroline &. Hoffman, local
sccreta of the Massachusetts Autlu-
bon society. Mrs. Hoffman tells the
orten-told story OF the mother heron
which must be killed when brooding
to ATTAIN the white aigrebte which is
her decoration at that time, and Of the
cruelty Of sacrificing the motherhood
and her little ones for the qualification
of feminine vanity. The Florida heron,
she says, is annihilated.
She Eases her plea in this circular
more particularly upon the practical
ground of the great injury to plants and
forests by the wholesale destruction CT
the little creatures SO useful in destroy
ing insects. She says: ALREADY in the
southern lands of Europe are the
forests perishing in frightful manner,
ard not less are the orchards in Danger,
for against the increase Of injurious
Insects there is no remedy when the lit
tie birds are missing. And no land in
the wide world is safe against this
hoirid destruction"
Quoting foreign criticism Of bird
decoration, she continues: "How for
eirn land, think and write about it, 4
newspaper from Toxic, Japan, will best
show. 1t says: TT is net enough that
the Europeans compress themselves
with steel and whalehone; they also de-
mand for adornment cur beautiful and
useful birds
She concludes: Equally guilty Of
this barbarous custom is every pur-
chaser of these birds, martyrs unto
death. May these words meet with the
right reception; may women at length
reflect and acknowledge that there is
something better nobler, more to be
desired than this foolish style, which
is bought with the blood and life Of
creatures fashioned by the Gcd of love.
May American women come to the
front and be the first to do away with
this brutal practice.
Everywhere our orchards, our fruit
trees, are crying out to be delivered
from insect pests. Competent witnesses
testify that all over our country, within
q generation, birds have diminished III
most rapid manner and the injurious
insects have made headway in the same
degree. Setting aside all sentiment
the destruction of forests, orchards
and fields ought to be sufficient to deter
women from INDUCING in this muir
.lnrons nractice '-Datroit Free Press.

FEMININE FASHIONS.

Season.

New Items of Dress for the Coming
Season.
There is a great rage just now for
black velvet ribbon trimming in wide'
medium and very narrow widths.
Bodices laid in tucks, either horizon
tai or perpendicular, are special $S;i. fe a.
ture OF the spring modes. They are
sometimes graduated in widths, but
oftener of even measurement, and like
punines, cordings and lace insertions
they form yoEes, vest girdles, sleeve
puffs and pretty little bolero jackets.
In spite of authentic accounts from
the most official sources and of endless
suubs from the tailors and dressmakers,
the Ubiquitous fancy waist makes its ell
egant and fascinating appearance
among the lovely things in spring and
RUNNER gowning. 1t will not down;
this seems positive, and for the very
good reason that it is one of the most
attractive and graceful forms Of dress
ever devised for general use, as we'll as
for the most ornate and charming fin
ishing touch to an elaborate toilet; and

wide for bottom, and board C nailed Sc
curely to the out edge of bottom form
the grain trough, which should lie not
less than 5 inches wide. Board y is L
inches wide and is nailed on the top
side of slanting pieces 3, which form
bottom of hay rack. These pieces
should be 1x4 inches. They are nailed
to top of frame and rest on top edge oil
board B, which sets ON the center ol
bottom, hence makes two troughs and
makes q solid base or bottom Of hay
rack. This board may vary from toe
inches in width or height. D are strips
8 or 4 inches wide nailed to lower side
and edge of board A,and on top edge-ol
board B strips one-half inch thick AMI
8 or inches apart. This completes the
rack.
When sheep have access to the hay OF
rough feed no hayseed can get in the
wool if hay and grain are fed at the
same time. The grain should be put in
first and can be poured into the top OF
rack, and it will divide itself equally in
both troughs.
Foot piece is made of inch lumber.
and should be securely nailed to bottom
of frame. This makes the rack stand
firm. Piece is inches wide and keeps
the rack from spreading.
, This sheep rack is easy to make. Any
one who can use square, saw and ham,
mer can make one. It is all put together
with nails. I know of no better rack
T have used this rack for stock sheer
for over eight years. Small lambs will
not get in the troughs to soil the grain

OILlNG THE HARNESS.
II Undertaken at All, This WorI'
Should he Done Well.

II Undertaken ct All, This Work
Should BE Done Well.
Harness will last much longer and
look much better if kept well oiled, and
will not get so stiff after being exposed
to a days rain. During the spring it is
difficult to keep harness from getting
wet, and it will pay well before the sea-
sons work begins to see that it is thor
oughly oiled. In doing the work, the
harness should he taken apart and
washed clean, using warm water and
CASTLE soap, and then wiped dry, when
the oil should be applied. If SO Glenn
that washing is not needed, it will be
better to wipe Off with a wet rag as the
Cling can be done better. 1t is best to
take harness all apart, in order to get at
oll of the parts and oil thoroughly.
Good harness oil can be purchased all
ready for use, or neatsfoot oil, with
little lamp black, will be found good. Ii
the harness has not been oiled for some
time and is hard and dry, it will be best
to go over them twice, finishing all up,
and then commencing with the first
piece and going over again. After every
part has been thoroughly oiled, u
should all be hung up over frame OF
some kind and allowed to dry. Itshould
not be hung in the sun or where the
wind strikes, as it will dry too rapidly
The oil should have plenty of time to
aoak in. Like most other work on the
farm, II undertaken it will pay to do
well.-Journal of Agriculture.

ct woke from a troubled dream that
seemed to have lasted lifetime, an
opened my eyes, half conscious, an not
sure but that was still dreamin'. Then
1 slipped off again, an remember
thinllin' that the sweet eyes that
mine had seemed to meet, were the
eyes Of my guardian angel. An they

again, all the past came back to me with
the fearful face of Mary Mathers.
81 put my hand out on the counter
pane, an she put hers gently on top of
it. An, believe me, sir, that's the only
way I ever popped the question: We'd
been through too much together to
need much fuss.
"'Wherc is hep l framed my lips to
say. 1 don't know whether she heard,
but she understood, for she put her
hand into her bosom and drew out a
blacA-edged card, an held it before my
eyes, whilst her own filed again with
tears. I read: In loving memory of
John Wright, who was killed at the
post of duty"
"And you've been happy in your mar
ried life?"
"Happyl Happy isn't the word for
it, sir. Ours is one Of the matches
