DREAMLAND TOWN.

Have Won ever visited Dreamland Town,
In the beautiful far-away,
Where many a gnome is won't to roam,
And many a fairy fay?
If you never have been to this quaint Old
town,
Pray listen. and 1 viii ten
OF the marvellous sights I saw one night,
In the land where the COLLINS dwell
BY the clock in the tower twas the mid
night hour.
When / entered and stood alone;
The phantoms and ghosts had all taken
And 1 shuddered to hear them groan.
When, 10 ard behold, from his castle Of
The Sandman came marching down,
For he. as you know. was ;ong years ago,
Crowned King of Drea and Town.
He was mounted. indeed, on the hand
soonest Steed
That ever I've known to be;
Twas the Nightmare, as gay, and as
restless. they say,
AS the waves of the foamy sea.
Beside him his queen, with her fairy-hke
Came riding serenely along:
Attended was she-'twas a gay sight to
BY a dear little elfn throng.
I followed them down all the streets of
the town.
Though I wandered, I scarcely knew
where,
Through Lullaby Road, past Sir Mods
grand abode.
And we halted at Hush-a-bye Square.
Confused and amazed 1 stood there ana
gaZed,
AS were opened the gates of the Square.
And the phantons and fays, with the
froHcsome ways,
Hailed the king and his queen bright
and fair.
These entered alone and assembled the
throne,
The fairies then followed in glee
Every phantom and ghost went at once
to his post.
Then the golden gates closed upon me.
was turning away when the first streaks
Dispersed the nights dark, gloomy
shade.
And saw nothing more, for my visit
was Ger,
To the land where dreams are made.

current flowing in from all sides.

DO YOUR OWN REPAIRING.

Too many farmers are given to hir-
ing repair work done which, with the
aid of few tools and little ingenuity,
they could do themselves at one-tenth
the cost. An old iron and bolt box
should be found in every barn. Hav-
ing these in place, never pass piece of
old iron or bolt, however useless it
may look, but pick it up and put it into
its box and seven times out of ten you
will find that apparently worthless
piece will answer useful purpose.
Bolts of all sizes and descriptions, ,espec-
tally ! and 3 and ] inch are always COM
ing handy. Every farmer should have
bench 80 inches wide by 10 to 15 ft
long, with good vice Is inches from the
end on the left-hand end as you stand
facing the side of the bench. A left
handed man will have the vice on the
right end instead of the left.
Hanging conveniently over the this
bench on the wall should be good rip
and crosscut saw, 12 teeth to the inch,
12-inch fiat bastard file, 6-inch three
cornered saw file, 10 or 12-inch brace
with /, 8, J. 5, 4, !, and 1-ineh bits and
II and Pinch auger. Right here let
me say, never file the bottom side of the
cutting edges of bit or auger, always
the top side and file a quite a sharp
angle. A good heavy hammer, claw
hammer and ak and lightrivetingham-
mer should also be found, box Of as
sorted to copper rivets,a cold chisel,
punch, square. marking guage,
screw driver, monkey wrench, 12ineh
stetson pipe wrench for twisting bolts,
plyers ), ], 4, l and 1t-inch chisels,
mallet, harness punch, 4-inch iron drill
to use in brace, an assortment of small
wire nails, one-half inch to one inch,
smoother and jack plain, a pair of
campasses and a key-hole saw.
These tools will of course cost con-
siderable, but if you will use them as
much as you ought they will pay for
themselves in six months, as you can
do almost anything in the way of re-
pair work. An old anvil or block of
iron should be added and if you get
cheap drill press and some rainy day
build a forge, your blacksmith's bill
would indeed be light; with the above
tools and little ingenuity almost any
thing can be repaired. Any man who
has brains enough to successfully engi-
neer farm should be able to use tools
and do any repair work. To illustrate
what mean by using little ingeuity:
Last fall my wagon tires got loose. l
removed them one rainy day, nailed
some strips I had which were ! inch
thick by inch wide half way around
the wheels, heeled the tires, put them
on. The result was as good as job as
the blacksmith would have done. The
cost was about FIVE cents. Save So 45.

KEEPING FERTILI

KEEPING FERTILITY ON THE FARM.
Clean up all manure and put it di'
rectly on the land. usually SOW 25 10
80 acres small grains year and always
seed all this to clover. If the land is in
wheat, l sow on the clover the latter
part Of February or tl.s first Of March,
bat il it is in oates l SOW the clover
seed shortly after the oats have been
narrowed in, at the rate Of one bushel
to seven or eight acres. This amount
although it may seem small to some
usually gives good stand. Two years
from lhs time of seeding the clover the
ground is broken up and planted to
corn. Two or three crops of corn are
then raised and the land goes back
again to grain and clover.
My aim is to have the land in clover
once every three years. l pasture part
of my clover field aud the remainder is
cut for hay and fed on the farm. With
this treatment Of land, don't know
what it is to have a failure of corn.
This spring will plow up 65 acres OF
clover ground and In addition have 70
