THE OLD SONG.

There Is garden sweet with rose and pink.
Where honeysuckle grows and virgins bower.
Soft turfed, and shelving to the rivers brink,
And in that garden grows my hearts white flower
She moves about II like a living rose.
And from my boat as l come up the stream
see, mid all the flowers her garden grows,
The living lily of her garments gleam.
At night walk beside the darkening tide,
Where the drowned stars among the lilies stir.
See her bright window on the farther side
And bless the happy roof that shelters her.
And when touch that fair, enchanted land.
Among the roses in the sunt noon,
she comes to and takes by the hand,
And Hfe's song, and love-true love-the tune!

dairy would he. What instruc-

heuetits of proper lining? How
important to learn about the diff.
ttrent methods of stock feeding
and of general Improvements
on the farm! Why will the
farmers never unite upon any
subject? We read of trades
unions all over the land d yet
the farmers never seem able to
get together or unite upon any
questions. Neighborh0od meet
in%S are held in many counties.
No expensive supperS or dinners
are allowed \ plain lunch is
given and delightful and in
Structive day or evening is spent
by all. At many of these meet
ings papers are read, music fol-
lows and a day of interest has
been enjoyed by all. We once
had farmers organization. We
have tried to keep up the interest
i'll our institutes, but it seems
that Frederick County is not
noted for the success of such af-
