A Dry Smoke.

II you see a man with an unIighted
cigar between his lips, It is not he
cause ne is looking for light. but be-
cause he is indulging in the pleasure Of
dry smoke" How there can be any
enjoyment in this to a smoker is not
readily apparent but the fact remains
that there is much satisfaction in the
habit and, besides, there are no bane.
full effects.
For lnyeterate smokers the dry smoke
Is a good habit to cultivate. 1t enables
many slaves Of the weed to decrease
the number Of cigars actually smoked
in a day without causing much incon-
venience, OF course an inveterate
smoker would find no pleasure in the
habit at the start, but perseverance is
necessary, and after awhile he will en-
JOY his dry smoke almost as much az
the real one. 1t is a good way to be-
gin if you desire to stop smoking. TRY

The rule with COWS at pasture should
be to continue feeding grain so long as
II increases the milk flow. When the
milk decreases and the animal begins
to fatten, the grain ration should be
decreased or cut off altogether. There
