ALL AROUND THE FARM.

The best crop raised on the farm
are the boys and girls. When they ma
ture grandly they are worth millions
pound. ....
1t is idle for a slovenly farmer to at
tempt to tell how a farm should be
conducted. His neighbors know him
and his style of farming.
1t was noticeable that during the
continuous heavy rains in June, the
only bad results to corn on tiled land
was the growth of weeds. .1S
The young man who can have the use
Of his fathers farm, as rule, had bet
ter stay on the farm. But if he does
not like farming, better go into what
he has a fancy for.
In paper recently read at a farm
er's meeting the author said that he
planted potatoes eight inches deep. 1t
seems to us that there would be sew
eral objections to that method.
Grow plenty of what you like for the
table. A farmer friend of ours says
that when he was boy he could never
get as many radishes us he wanted
Now he grows them to a point of
was1e.-Western Plowman.

KEEP FENCES TIGHT.
A Good Part of the Injury to Stock
from Barhs Is Due Almost
Altogether to Neglect.

One of the most common causes of
breachy animals on the farm is poor
fences, and we may go further and say
that a good part of the injury to stock
from barbed wire fences, is due to a
poor condition of the fence. The
wires get loose and sag down, and
stock get tangled up in them and in
jure themselves much worse than they
would if the fences were kept up prop
erly. Low tumble down fences are a
constant temptation to stock to
break over, and once they get started
it will be much more difficult to re-
strain. The safest plan in all cases is
to keep the fences in good condition,
especially those around the pastures.
If the stock are to be changed con-
Stantly from one pasture or field to
another, provide good gates, as lay
ing the fences part way down and
compelling the animals to jump over
what is left up, is giving them the first
lessons in jumping or becoming
breachy. If an animal seems inclined
to be breachy, get rid of it as soon as
PoSSiDiS, az ohc AlloClllcN Jus VI UItdCIly
animal on the farm will soon teach
the greater part of the others to be
like them. With wire fences properly
built, care being taken to have strong
corner posts well braced, it is not
much work to keep them in good con-
dition. But no matter what kind of
fences there may be on the farm it is
good plan to 60 over them every few
weeks and see that they are kept in
good repair.-Prairie Farmer.

GEESE FOR MARKET.
A Branch of the Poultry Business
Which Possesses a Number of
Special Advantages.

If there is abundant pasturage little
other food is required, as a goose de-
ponds largely upon grass for susten-
ance during the summer months. Dur
ing winter there should be some in
closure or protection provided, and
the geese should be fed twice day.
Shredded hay or silage is suitable,
giving corn at least once day or so.
If geese are fed too much grain it
will induce laying too early in the sea-
son and the eggs will probably not be
fertile. Geese seek mates in February.
Among the many varieties we think
the Emblem, African and Toulouse are
most profitable. A good cross is OBJ
tanned by mating an African gander
with Embden geese. The cross secures
better layers and the color of the flesh
is improved. The green goose" as
the goose is styled when about four
months old, is in demand in the mar
kets if fattened nicely. Sometimes
young geese are'sent to market at two
months old, if Of good size and well
fattened. 10 fatten they should be

An UnheeIel Warning.

Miss H was taking railway
journey. A suave old gentleman sit
ting opposite her presently bent for
ward and said, with gentle reproof:
Excuse me, but do you think it wise,
when there are SO many thieves about,
to carry your purse SO conspicuous
1y?" AS he spoke he pointed to her
purse, which was projecting slightly
from her pocket. Miss H, consi-
dering the stranger rather officious,
thrust the portmonnaie down into her
pocket and thanked him with stiff re-
serve. perhaps a trifle scornfully. At
the next station the old gentleman
got out. AS he did so he turned to his
pretty vis-a-vis with polite bow and
the mischievous indulgence of his
years: "Allow me to restore your
purse. You see, it was not so hard to
lose as you supposed So saying. he
held out to her the purse she had sup
posed was safely reposing in her pock-
ct. Miss H received it, colored
with childlike modification, thanked
him profusely, and her old friend took
his leave with friendly smile. A few
minutes later, when the official came
around to collect tickets, Miss H
discovered her purse to be empty

Fable for Rrilea.

One can't but wonder how many
brides will be patriotic enough, right
in the face of tradition and conven-
tionality, to eschew the time honored
orange blossoms. At any rate, there's
a legend going the rounds to the effect
that this priced blossom is thoroughly
Spanish, an African king having in the
dim past presented magnificent tree,
loaded with creamy, fragrant, waxen
blossoms, to the Spanish court. Out
siders begged in vain for branches Of
this famous plant and used any num-
Der of ruses to gain them. So carefully
were they guarded, however, that for
a long time not one got away. But at
last the fair daughter of the court gar
dener sold one her father had given
her to foreign ambassador, receiving
in return her dot" and breaking of
another branch for herself. Evef
