Reports from the northwest say that
there is to be a Cured Fruit Associa-
ton formed. patterned after the Cal.
iforuia RAisin Growers Association.
which proved so successful last year
The new association will take in all
the manufacturers Of cured fruit in
the Pacific northwest The objects
will be to make a uniform pack. and
ensure that the cvaporated prunes and
other like fruit be placed on all the
markets in the most perfect form
possible. The price will also be made
uniform and reasonable It remains
TO be seen II these men can make as
great a success OF It as did the Cali
furnIa association mentioned.
The spring is here and vegetation
Is awakening. with 1t will also
awaken the insects that have hiber-
mated during the winter. In addition
the spores of apple scab fungus will
begin their work with the increase

man whose trees have not been attack
ed is the man that wants to be first
In securing the advantages Of spray
ing. The chief value OF this operation
lies In the prevention of attacks. After
insects have fed extensively on the
foliage OF the trees all the spraying

earnestly urge every man that has
large interests in orchards or small

When lambs come early In the sea-
son aud arc sold "a milk lambs. the
dams. II aged. should be sold also soon
after tho lambs. They will fetch .
higher price II sold then when In con-
dision for selling. than II sold later.
The better price Is secured because Of
the fact that the market is not over
stocked In the early months OF sum-
NOR as IL IL In the late months OF
autumn. says the Farmer. Hut owes
cannot be turned on at such time
unless they are fat To secure such
a result special pains may be necessary
In feeding such ewes while nursing
their lambs. IL may be necessary to
usc a considerable proportion of bar
ley. rye or corn In the grain given to
the dam while she is nursing her lamb.
This will prevent that falling OF In
iicsh tina, Ia likely to occur during the
nursing period unless some means Is
taken to prevent IL. When the lamb
Is sold II may be necessary to feed a
lo~ diet for few days until the milk
;iov ceases. The heavy grain ration
should then be continued. II there Is
on hand at the same time a well.grow
rape pasture. the said pastsre will do
the rest II the rape is well grown II
will fatten the dam with but little
grain added. II the lambs are late.
then the ewes will OF necessity be sold
in the fall. Here again the rape pas
ture will make them ready for sale
with but little outlay, Sheep owners
should try and market stock of this
class before the winter sets in.
The British people are every year
becoming more dependent on foreign
dairy products. The COW population
Is increasing to some extent, but not
so rapidly as is the human population.
In the period from 1871 to 1875 the
average number of cows and heifers
in the United Kingdom is put at 2.20i.-
900. The average number of the same
stock in 1891 to 1895 was 2.552, 900.
But in the meantime the human pop
ulation had increased from $4,000 ,Oeo
to 33.OOO.OOO. In 1871 to 1S75 there
were So cows for every 1000 of the
population. In 1896 there were but
20 cows per 1000 OF the population.
We have no figures more recent. 1t Is
barely possible that some day a great
revival of dairy interests will take
place in Great Britain similar to what
took place in Denmark, but we see no
signs of such movement as yet.

Sarcasm About the Clerpv.

borough he was walking with the Bish-
op of Hereford by the Wye, and said 4:
IF you will give me your river | will
give you my see" There is this other
story also in Bishop How's collection:
"A lady who was great admirer Of a
certain preacher took Bishop Magee
with her to hear him. and asked him
afterward what he thought of the SER
mon. 1T was very long the Bishop
said. Yes said the lady, but there
was saint in the pulpit And mar

Unclaimed.

Every year there are picked up in the
cutters Of London, or taken from pawn
brokers' shops, jewels amounting in
value from fifteen to twenty thousand
pounds. These are duly advertised; but
for many reasons even people who rec
ognize the description Of their own
property in the advertisements do not
care to claim it, and it thus comes
about that the proportion of property
left unclaimed is a large one. 1t is the
rule, indeed, that where such valu-
ables have not previously been report.
ed to the police by their owners as
missing they are seldom claimed after.
wards. The London police keep all
such property for twelve months, ad-
vertising it in three daily papers dur
ing that period. If no one claims it,
and the account of the finder seems rea
sonable, it is handed over to the latter,
the police deducting the cost OF the ad
vertisements only. If pawnbroker has
detained the article and no one claims
it, the police at the end of twelve
months give the pawnbrOker reward;
and here let it be said that these re-
wards often amount in a year to a large
sum. In this latter case the article is
sold, and the surplus money. after the
reward has been paid, is handed over,
not to the police funds as most people
imagine, but to the relief and mainten-
ance of discharged prisoners. 1t has
been put as paradox that thief may
in this way ultimate tely be led to new
way of life by his own original theft.

"sIeN oE The SMILE"

We're weary a-walking the highway Of
life;
We're fretted and fustered with worry
and strife.
Let us drop by the wayside the heavy
old load,
And rest at the inn at the turn of the
road
Let us tarry a while
AT the Sign of the Smile"
Ho, the "Sign of the Smile" is a jolly inn,
With gargoyles about it that do naught
but grin.
There's always laugh and a shoulder
to whack.
And an echo that ever will answer us
back
Let us tarry while
At the Sign of the Smile"
At the "Sign of the Smile" we will linger
long there
For the strictest of rules is the ban upon
care,
And the guests must forget there are
such things as years,
And never shed any but laughter brought
tears
Let us tarry a while
At the Sign of the Smile"
There'll be fiagons of jollity for us to sip,
And many and many rollicking quip,
Though the jokes may be old-like the
juice of the vine,
They mellow with age to the richest of
wine
Let us tarry while
At the Sign of the Smile"
Let us tarry a while at the "Sign of the
Smile
Forget all our griefs in the joys that be-
guile.
Let as pleasure the noon till it changes to
night,
Then up with our loads and Wen find
they are light
If we tarry a while
At the Sign of the Smile"

almost holy love light in her eyes, as If
the dark clouds were almost dispelled
by the strong rays of golden sunlight.
And it was so. Hers was the not un-
familiar story Of old-a life begun un-
der the most promising conditions, do
nestle happiness and welded unity.
Harold Worthington, the trusted and
trustworthy cashier in large banking
institution, had welcomed his bride to
an elegantly appointed home. For three
years theirs was a life Of ideal happi-
ness, and when little Marjorie came to
bless their union they felt as If their
happiness had indeed been crowned.
Then came the time when that demon
jealousy had entered the breast of Har-
old Worthington, unfounded, it is true,
and sowed by the poisonous tongue of
an envious club man. But the little
seed so cunningly planted grew until
it's thorns ranked and cut deep; and
as time wore on coldness sprang up
between the once united hearts. Each
was too proud to make humble conces-
sion, and Harold remained oftener and
longer at his club, until finally, after
an open dissension, he remained away
altogether.
Hourly each had longed for the old
happy days of sweet, sweet home, but
pride-that barrier to so many happy
iresides-pride forbade.
On this particular evening May had
put little Marjorie to bed, and then she
sat down, and, relaxing her self-control,
threw her arms upon the table, and,
burying her white face in them, cried
out:
"Oh, Harold, Harold, il it had not
been for your unreasonable jealousy,
we might have been so happy"
So absorbed was she that she did not
hear the ring at the door bell, nor the
footsteps in the hall.
The man who had just entered start
ed back as he saw the bowed form,
then advancing he said gently
May"
She started to her feet, and for an
instant the old glad look of welcome
sprang into her eyes; then, suddenly re-
membering, she drew herself up proud
ly and coldly said:
Harold! You here? l don't under
stand. 1t has been so long"
Yes" he replied in an equally cold
tone. Il am going away for a year,
two years, ten years. cannot tell-and
] have come to make settlements for
your support and Marjorie's education
before leaving forever"
Hush. She must not hear"
He paused and his glance followed
that of his wife. There, between the
parted curtains, stood little, white
robed figure, almost angelic In its puri-
ty Then she sprang forward with a
glad cry of Papa! Papa! 1 knew It
was my papa's voice"
| Straight into his arms she sprang,
and was clasped close to the fathers
heart
