Settling the Land Question.

A collier wandering on some land
belonging to Earl D CHANGED to
meet the owner face to face. His lord
ship asked the collier If he knew he
was walking ON his land.
THY land! Well, I've got no land
myself" was the reply, "and I'm fore
ed to walk on somebody else's. Whaur
did you get it from?"
oh" replied the earl, Il got 1t from
my ancestors"
And whaur did they get 1t FROM"
inquired the collier.
They got it from their ancestors"
And whaur did their ancestors get
1t from"
They fought for It,"
"Ah, WELL" said the collier, squar-
ing up to the earl, come, and I'll fight
thee for it."-London Tit-Bits.

dipping the plants in a solution OF
arsenate of lead is doubtless the cas-

or more will be found on a single pod.
The larva soon matches out, drills
through the pod and works its way in
to the young berry. The hole in the
pod soon grows up, and there is then
nothing to indicate the presence Of the
Inhabitants within. The color Of the
larva is a deep yellow with a shiny
black head. There are often many
more larvae on the pod than there are
peas within. but there is only one to
a berry. The rest perish. The larva
continues to feed on the albuminous
part OF the pea, but rarely touches the
life-germ, SO that the vitality Of the
berry is not destroyed. On reaching
maturity 1t eats round hole to the
outside Of the pea, leaving only the
thin hull to enclose 1t. and then passes
into the pupa state. 1t usually remains
In this condition until the following
spring, then to become the mature

part, destroyed by soaking the peas in

Inc Lament OF the Golfer.
The days are growing short, alas!
The mellow autumn's here;
The grapes are crimson in the press,
The leaves are pale and sere.
rhe grass is yellow on the meads,
The hills are blue with haze;
The cider mill begins to hum
All, doleful autumn days!
Across the spreading fields the scent
OF roses comes no more;
The fence is bare that was so fair
With fragrant peas before!
The summers dead! The robin sings
Its farewell to the lark,
And oh it's such little while
From 3 o'clock till dark!

told me that might as we'll cut them
off at the top of the ground because
they would die any way. l didn't lose
a tree from the effect Of cutting back
or the spraying. We did this in the
winter, think in February. The fol-
lowing summer the foliage on the or
chard was much better than anything
in the country. l had two other Or
chards and compared it with them and
noticed that the foliage on the orchard
that had been sprayed was very much
healthier than the others. / noticed
also that there was scarcely any blight
what ever in that orchard of fifteen
hundred trees, but in the other two or
chards I had considerable blight.

Sheep Nows.
Wyoming correspondents report that
grass on the Johnson county range is
SO burned out by drought that 1t is
crisp and brittle under the foot Of the
pedestrian. Stockmen expect to be
compelled to feed their sheep and cat
tie through the winter.
To demonstrate that frozen Aus
tralian mutton can be shipped in good
condition to this country, spring
lamb killed and dressed in New Zea-
land has been sent to an importing
firm in New York. 1t reached there
on the steamer Majestic, after trans
portation of 1900 miles. 1t is good
and solid despite Its long journey Of
seventy days. In view of the fine quail
ity and the cheapness and abundance
OF lambs in Australia the experiment
is regarded with much interest by
local butchers.
Sheep camps in the Wyoming noun
tains between Battle Lake and Grand
Encampment are threatened with de-
struction from forest fires. The herd
crs have been forced to drive their
fiocks high up in the mountains to get
feed, owing to the scarcity OF both
feed and water on the plains below,
and II is feared that many Of these
herders have been surrounded, with
their focks, by the flames. Nothing
can prevent the progress OF the flames
except a heavy rain. 1t is estimated
that the loss thus far, exclusive OF the
millions of feet of fine timber, will be
over 100000.
Sheep feeders are profiting by the
large supply and low prices and are
buying literally at the Chicago yards.
The drouth in the Northwest has
caused large influx Of sheep into
Idaho, which has overcrowded the
ranges and compelled large unload
ing OF stock on the markets. Sheep
and cattle interests threaten to con-
fiict, and efforts will be made to devise
some method of dividing the public
range.
A new sheep dip. intended for per-
manent use, is being constructed at
the Chicago stock yards. Three years
ago a wooden dip was constructed as
an experiment. 1t will now be dis
carded. The new one is Of brick and
is 100 feet in length without curves.
The old one had two bends. and these
proved TO be its chief defect.
Montana ranges are said to be short
of aged cattle on account of the large
numbers of young cattle marketed
during the last two or three years.
Owing to this depletion of stock some
cattlemen have resorted to sheep rails
ing in order to utilize their ranges.
Montana feeding lambs are quoted at
81. so to $1.75 by ranchmen.
