An Effective Remedy.

A good story is told Of one Of the
chiefs of the civil service department
who had two afflictions-an obliging
and easy doorkeeper and a pertina.
cious offlce-seeker, who was a distant
relative Of the chief. Scarcely aweek
passed but the latter called, and the
former was much to polite to shut
him out.
The chief at last, after one Of the
usual interviews, resolved to stand
the nuisance no longer, SO, summon
ing the doorkeeper when the visitor
had departed, he said, az, do you
know what that man comes after?"
"No, sir" replied the functionary.
"Well, then, I may as well tell you.
He wants your place."
The bore was admitted no more

1t seems to be the characteristic of nine
out OF every ten men engaged in other voca
lions to think that they were born to give
advice to farmers. 1t is a matter of the
kindness of Providence perhaps that not
more of these are compelled to put their
theories into practice. What would be said
of farmer who presumed to give advice to
mercantile association or congress of
physicians?
But the farmers business il the most in
tricate of all. He must know when to cul.
has, what crops to raise, what kinds OF
stock to keep. With hundred irons in the
fire, the farmer who can keep all from burn
ing is a general OF no mean ability. I've
seen more than the tax of an entire farm
lost by single days delay in the beginning
of the wheat harvest. And in hired help
he has problem bigger than most others
are ever called on to face. The hired help
Of the farm is the most irresponsible of any
hired help in the world. Ii the farmer is
successful do you deny him the right to be
called business man.
III some banking work in which was
engaged in small village discovered that
only y of per cent of the men looked up
by the bank were successful enough TO at
tract the attention of outsiders, and only
5 per cent who were very successful even at
home. In the country there were ten times
as many who had attained at least average
success. But IL you think this means that
the methods of the farmer need no hints
for improvement wish you might take q
trip about the counties with me for two OIL
three weeks aud see the implements lying
out in the fields.
Then there is the sccursed habit of bust
ness among farmers who do not have any
idea of keeping their monetary engage
ments. Do you know that if the farmer

A light slat pen about 5x3M feet ia built
so that 1t can be set down over eve. A
floor is built across one end to serve as q

edge of this to hold the sheep just as COW

Some other hints as to the care of lambs

TO questions as follows: 1t Is best to have
the lambs dropped before the flock Is turned
out to pasture. Lambs are often -four d

are turned in. All surgical operations
should be performed when the lambs are
from three to five days old. Unless their

to become go befouled that proper passage
of the bowels are prevented and the lambs
die. Sheep will 90 long time without
water, but cannot do as well under such
conditions. FALL rye or rape is very valu'

to these points the sheep raiser will find
that IN the fall he has as large proportion
of lambs in spite OF his early sale of Easier
lambs as he would with ordinary care. Fol
his extra work he has his Easter sales which
make big profit when the slight extra cos
