THE CARE OF cows.

A bad case of garget should always

experience, apt to grow worse with

THE ICE CREAM. SHE Is MELTED"
heart, watched Mrs. Emerson take
her first sip of coffee, for Mrs Major
had no idcn of the brand favored by
the Burton family. Mrs. Emerson
raised her eyebrows the tiniest bit
and slipped no more, and all the Joy
fed from Mrs. Majors life at that
moment. The other neighborly cinch
players waded into the chicken salad
and things and cleared off the table
without comment. But Mrs. Major
knew what they were thinking. She
could tell by the white Of Miss Un-
derwood's eye that the salad was too
salty, and there was an indef1nable
curl to Mrs. Bryson's lip, which spoke
volumes concerning the chinaware.
Mrs. Ainsley's overwhelming fattery
for the luncheon told it's own story to
Mrs. Major, and it was with much
difficulty she was able to finish her
second cup of coffee.
Mr.. Major, of course. saw none of
this. He. dived into the salad and
waters and things with avidity and
carried on brisk conversation with
Mr.. Hermann on the chances of Oscar
Gardner when he gets into the ring
with Terry McGovern. When the last
morsel of wafer had disappeared Mr..
Major produced cigars for the men
and was happy and contented when
the smoke began to wreathe above
their heads. Mrs. Major kept up a
fierce conversation with the ladies in
the parlor and her husband never
noted how remarkably sweet she was
to Miss Underwood or he might have
suspected something. Before long
Mrs. Bryson looked bard at her bus-
band. who was telling Mrs. Emerson
funny story. and said they really
must go. That started the exodus,
and in a few minutes the hall tree
was stripped of its burden. and all
the rubbers were stamped on once
more, and dozen good-bys were said.
Mrs. Major had to kiss all the women
again and her husband shook hands
with each of the men and told him to
take care of himself, and when the
door closed upon the last of them he
turned with gratified smile to his
wife.
"Well. that was all right" he said

Low-HEADED TREES.
why They Are Preferred by Modern
Fruit Growers who Are OPP
posed to Pruning.

For several reasons low.headed
fruit trees are to be preferred. They
resist wind better, the fruit is more
easily gathered and the bark insect,
which lays its eggs on tue bare trunk
to be Matched out by the warm sun
shine, is headed off. Then there is
less danger of sun scald, as the
branches spreading out, in a measure
at least. shade the trunk.
By cutting out the top during the
early stages of growth in a majority
of cases II low-spreading growth may
be readily secured.
Some of our best growers are now
advocating no pruning. There is no
question but that in many cases much
harm is done to good tree by over
pruning. and on this account is a
choice between no pruning and the
serious injury resulting from over
pruning. No pruning is rather the
better plan. One advantage claimed
for not pruning is that there will be
no water sprouts. While pruning to
some extent seems necessary in order
to get rid of crossing or trailing
limb. yet care is necessary not to
prune too severely.
1t is of course best to remove all
dead or diseased wood whenever no.
tced. hut with care taken to supply
conditions favorable to thrifty, Wig
orous growth. this can be reduced to
minimum. Certain it is that no
limb or branch should be removed
without a good reason. Better not
prune than to cut unnecessarily. One
grower claims that all that is neces-
sary when the desired height is Sc
cured is to pinch off the top bud of
the center stem of the tree and then
let further pruning alone.
The only possible objection to a
low-headed tree is that after a good
growth has been secured it is difficult
to cultivate close up under the tree,
but generally after a tree has come
well into bearing the better plan is
to seed down to clover. and it is only
in exceptional cases that cultivation
will be necessary. N j. Shepherd, in

small ring or harness clasp. from
which hung a stout cord attached at
its lower end to the cows tail at about
the point where the brush or long hair
begins. This cord was long enough to
allow the animal to switch with com

produce. by being in closer touch with
the market; fifth, educational advan-
tages.
And these are only few of the
benefits which wideawake country
people can readily see for themselves
will accrue to them from a free daily
mail
Deprived of many social privileges,
country people depend more upon
their reading matter to keep in touch
with the spirit of the times, than do
their city neighbors, who may depend
more upon the daily association with
their fellowmen to keep them up to
date.
And with new and improved farm
machinery comes more leisure to the
farmer for reading and study, and
with the improved conditions great
er desire for mental development and
a realization that self-culture is their
only salvation from growing rusty
and falling down intellectually.
1t is true that many farmers think
it is not worth while to take many
papers and magazines when they can
get their mail only once or twice a
week. and the accumulation of read
ing matter becomes stale and unprofit-
able, but a daily delivery would soon
change this feature of the case, for no
class of people feel the, need of keep
ing in touch with the outside world
through the medium of the press
more than those who reside in iso-
lated farm communities.
The independent farm telephone is
with us. and with free mail delivery
the isolation of farm life. of which we
hear so much, would be thing of the
past, and farm people who live up to
their privileges will be enabled to
keep up with the possession in this
progressive age, and also receive some
substantial benefits from the federal
government, of which they are now
deprived. And should congress see fit

Obituary..

Ida L.. daughter of John and Sarah
Erskine, departed this life Thursday,
April ), 1900. after thirteen weeks of
suffering She was born near Bridges,
Ohio, August 13,, 1888, aged l6 years,
! months and % days. Not dead, but
sleeping. The frail tenement of clay
is vacated, the spirit gone to bright
and more enduring home. Possessed
of an unusually sweet, loving spirit,
she was blessing in the home. The
going out of this bright sunbeam has
left lonely and saddened hearts.
Now, the bright smiles that ever well
coined will linger with loved ones un-
til they. too, Shall pass out and all
are reunited. All that loving hearts
and hands could do was done for her.
But she was transplanted and in her
going Heaven has but claimed its
own. Could she speak to father,
mother, sisters and brothers, who
loved and cared for her so tenderly,
she would say, Come" Now she
waits their coming. She cannot come
to us but we may go to her.
A precious one from us has gone,
voice we loved is stilled;
place il vacant in our home,
That never can be filled.
God in his wisdcm has recalled
The boon his love has given,
And though the body monlders there,
The soul il safe in Heaven.
