A good story is told in connection
with the last Ascot meeting. An Amer
lean, who was used to going into racing
booths in his own country, ordering
luncheon and paying 81. found himself
hungry at the royal meeting. SO he
walked into the first tent handy and
told the attendant to give him some
thing to eat. The man put sumptuous
luncheon before him, to which, as well
as the champagne, the visitor did ample
justice. He then handed the attendant
shillings, received his thanks and was
bowed out of the tent, inwardly con-
graduating himself on the moderateness
of the charge An English friend whom
he met outside said:

Our Future Policy.

The Future Policy of the United
States was the subject of we'll con-
structed Grafton by Dudley Marshall,
who held that our war with Spain
marked an epoch in our national af-
fairs and forced upon us policy that
cannot be abandoned for years. Yet
to give back the Philippines means a re-
newal of oppression. To acknowledge
their independence would be equiv
alent to surrendering them to an
archy- While humanitarian motives
were sufficiently strong to dictate the
retention of the islands, this nation
also must not lose sight of its inter-
ests in the oriental market-the great
est i'm the world-and the control of
the Philippines insures an influence
and standing that we could not obtain
otherwise.

Eddy McCulloch delivered the salut a
tory, and an able address it was, the
young man taking for his subject,
The Unknown Factor in the Problem
of Life the delivery of which was
prefaced by an expression of the graft
tude of the class to the board of educa-
ton for affording such magnificent
schools and able teachers to educate
the youthful mind. The speaker con-
tended that the unknown factor is the
individuality of man. The known
factors are his health, environments
and training. He should therefore be
imbued with lofty ideas and
strive increasingly to attain the goal
he has set for himself.

Bran win COrnmeal.

Where cut feed is fed to horses, u
mixture of corn and oats ground to-
gether makes the best meal to put ON
the cut and moistened hay. If the oats
are not to be had, grind the corn and
mix the meal with twice its bulk of
wheat bran. Corn meal alone is too
heavy feed to put on cut hay, but
mixed with bran and the whole chewed,
as cut feed is sure to be, the saliva from
the horses mouth will be mixed with it
and enable it to digest without ferment-
ing in the stomach. When we fed corn
and oatmeal on cut hay to horses, we
usually put in some bran also, and think
the horses liked it better. as the COM
bination of the three feeds gave the
whole very appetizing flavor, especial
ly as hot water was used to moisten the

for the guidance of amateur shearess:
professionals may smile, but this 10
not intended for them), writes ". b.
Vestal in an exchange. First you want
smooth table about four feet wide
and three feet high. The plnnks must
be planed so that the wool will not
cling to them. Lay the sheep up with
belly to the front strap. head down with
bell collar, then with '.jocky stick"
about four and half feet long, with
soft lace leather strings at each end;
tie the hind feet to one end and the
lower front to the other; commence
shearing at the fore arm; cut line
from the front flank to the rear flank
and down the ham. Keep the fleece roll
ing back until you are past the line OF
the backbone; by pulling the front
leg backward you will have smooth
sailing over the shoulder and half way
up the neck. Shear the belly to point
opposite the place of beginning. This
can be done by raising the stick and
gently leaning against it to keep the
feet up. Now release the head and
shear downward, dividing the fleece at
the throat so the fleece when off will
be all in one piece like pelt. By lean.
ing against the table, with the head
under your left arm, you will shear the
neck, breast and most of the shoulder
before turning over. To turn pull we'll
forward, tuck fleece close to back, then
steady the head with left hand and with
the right grasp the stick midway and
gently raise the feet and roll him over
the fleece Ia good soft bed), strap down
head, turn the fleece back and you will
have clear sailing to the finish, with
fleece unbroken, sheep unhurt from
struggling and the boy having good
time fishing at the brook. And now let
me say word to you about that boy
of yours. If you wish him to be good
| shepherd, il you wish him to love sheep,
and love the farm, then don't compel
him to ''hold sheep" while you shear
them. have some fond drecollections"
of holding sheep some 40 years since

FACTS FOR FARMERS.

Don't expect first-class oats from
second-class seeds.
Keep the work on the farm well in
hand. Never let it get control of you.
Mix brains, common sense and muscle
in about equal parts and success is Ger.
tain.
Corn is good for a night feed and for
sitting hens, as it maintains bodily
heat.
Good help on the farm is the cheapest,
upon the same principle that good
article is always the cheapest.
Smut increases from year to year IL
the land on which it makes it appear
ance is used for the mecrop.
Make your plans to include good
large garden next year. There's money
in the garden and good health, too.
Resolve not to let cookie, thistles,
docks or any other specially-annoying
plant go to seed on your farm this sea-
son.
Debt makes the plow harder to hold
and causes the victuals to be less palata-
BILE. Keep out of debt just as far as
possible.
Boiled potatoes and boiled peas,
mashed together, and fed with sour
milk, will put flesh on hogs faster than
corn, it is said.
We grow on an average in this coun-
try 12 bushels of wheat to the acre. II
we grew 80 bushels we could make
wheat growing pay.
Where mixed farming is followed
some oats can nearly always be grown
to be used for feed; one advantage with
them is, that they come in early
