The Oriental md His Rings.

A recent writer on oriental rugs says
that there is no arbitrary test by which
an inexperienced person can tell a gen
uine rug from bogus one. Knots and
strands mean nothing except in con-
nection with other important elements
Shades and spots are initiated. Wash
ing the rug to discover If it has been
painted over with brush and water
color frequently leads only to the dis
coyery of Il bad spot in an otherwise
fine rug. The oriental dyer does his
work according to his own sweet will
Between the puffs Of a cigarette and
the gossip of his friends he dips his
material in the dye tub. Only the eX-
pert knowledge of the old rug buyer
can be depended on. These buyers go
to the great fairs on the edge of the
desert, where once year the men Of
the east gather to haggle together
Sometimes western buyers push into
Persia and the Caucasus to search out
rare weaves in the homes of the weav-
ers, but the venture is always attended
with some danger from native hostil-
ity. 1t is said that the annals of COM
merce contain greater romances than
were ever woven around tales of war.

with a Grain of Salt.

The earliest record of the saying,
"With a grain of salt" dates back to
the year 63 B. c., when the great Pom
pey entered the palace of Mithridates
and discovered among his private pa
pers the description of an antidote
against poisons of all sorts, which was
composed of pounded herbs. These, ac-
cording to the recipe. were to be taken
with grain of salt. Whether this was
meant seriously or as warning sar-
casm is not known, but thenceforth it
became the custom to say that doubt
full preparations should be taken with
a grain of salt
From this the meaning got trans
ferred to sayings of doubtful truth.
Attic salt" was a Greek synonym for
wit or penetration, and the Latin word
SAL had somewhat of the same mean
ing 1t is thus easy to see how the
saying, Cum grano Sails" could have
come to mean the necessity of accept
ing doubtful or suspicious statements
with Il grain of SALT

A BOVINE EVANGELIST.

He lived in scrub community, nice
people enough-honest, industrious and
all that-but way back on modern
methods Of farming, prone to follow
grandfather's way and stick to old
precedents and customs. One man in
the community by some chance attend
ed state fair, where for the first time
in his life he saw herds of fine blooded
stock, and this set him to thinking,
and the result of his thinking was that
he slipped off one day and bought IA
Shorthorn bull, for which he paid $3.50
The bringing of this animal into the
community created great sensation.
His wife called him fool, and his
boys said he needed a guardian, and
all the neighbors, who considered $50 a
big lot of money for an animal of the
sort, said he was headed for the insane
asylum. The results were that that
bull worked reformation In that COM
munity, reconstructed all the prevail
ing notions about stock and placed
hundreds of dollars in the pockets of
the scoffers and unbelievers There is
no more scrub stock raised in that
community.

A pRonLEM FoR INVENTORS.

The attention of the people at large
has been very sharply drawn to the
question of fuel supply as result of
the late strike among the hard coal
miners Not only has the price of hard
coal been greatly advanced, but the
prices of both soft coal and wood have
advanced also. AS a result the atten-
ton of the country has been diverted to
other possible fuel supplies. 1t has al
ways seemed to us that there was one
source of supply which might be made
available which has never been util-
lied, and that is the mechanical CONVEX
sion of the surplus straw and corn
stalks of the farms into blocked fuel.
Surely some practical machine could be
invented which would shred and COM
press this material into suitable block
form for use as fuel, and this, too, at a
low price. All through the north and
west there are millions of tons of corn
stalks and flax, wheat and oat straw
wasted each year, enough on nearly ev-
cry farm TO furnish an ample fuel sup
ply for the farm home. Here is a prob
lem well worth the attention of our
most ingenious inventors.

Newfoundland is probably the only
country in the world where venison,
sailed or fresh. is staple article of
diet for the masses.
The coast folk make their plans with
method and delibera ton
From the harbors where they reside
they go in their boats to the rivers and
t1ords which strike into the interior.
When navigation is no longer possible,
they debark and continue on foot to
the deer country. They carry barrels
filed with salt and sometimes go in
large companies. When the rendezvous
IS reached, they camp. They ambush
themselves along promising lead" or
deer track, armed with long six foot
muzzle loading sealing guns, which
they charge with about EIGHT fingers
of coarse gunpowder and 'slugs' of
lead, fragments of iron or bits of rusty
nails, whichever they may have. They
fire point blank into herd of caribou
as it passes and, being usually good
shots. contrive to kill almost anything
they aim at OF to wound it so badly
with these dreadful missiles that it
soon collapses. Then they skin and cut
up the meat, for these men know lit

barrels, with the salt as preventative

FEED 1T In THE FIELD.

A great many farmers throughout the
west have fields of soft corn-corn
which, because of the early frost and
the unusually cool season, has not
properly matured-which is not worth
husking, as it would be impossible to
keep it in a crib, and have bought cat
tie, intending to feed this corn off in the
field. We are asked whether it is safe
to turn such cattle into these fields of
corn and let them eat as much as they
want at the start. We should say it is
not. Such course would be almost
sure to make the cattle sick, even if it
did not kill some of them. The right
way would be to get them on to this
sort of feed gradually, letting them in
to the field but for short time at first
and gradually working them on to full
feed, taking a week or ten days in
which to do it, This plan of dlsposing
Of this immature crop is every way the
most economical which can be adopted,
provided it is done in the right manner.

Not in twenty-five years have we had
such luxuriant growth Of strawberry
vines to cover up for the winter as this
fall The promise for large crop of
berries next season is very fattering,
as these thrifty plants must have set
an enormous quantity of fruit buds for
the crop of 1908. And here we are
asked how to cover the strawberries
and when. We take clean straw or
marsh hay II it can be obtained and
when the ground is firmly frozen up
scatter about two inches Of cover on
the bed. In the spring this cover is
raked in between the rows and serves
the double purpose of mulch and a
protection for the berries from the dirt.
And remember it is best to leave it I'M
disturbed as long as possible in the
spring, as the plants are thereby to
some extent held back from blooming
so early that late spring frost would
catch them.

Where there is only small herd of
dairy cows. say twelve or fifteen, kept
on the 100 acre farm and where the
dairy is not made the leading feature
of the farm it is by all odds best to
put at the head of such herd sire of
the best beef breeds, and he should not
cost less than $125. In this way
grade of feeders can be grown from
such herd which will be just what
such type of mixed farming needs to
be fed and fatted on the farm.

years of experience in dairying there
is no end Of farmers who will not
take proper care of their milk. If
should fire back from the creamery all
the milk which ought to be sent back,
should either lose my job or else break
up the business" There is too much
truth in what this man said. The one
chief reason why SO much butter which

milk is not properly cared for, the but

We have only to go back hundred
years to see how greatly the condition
of the laboring man has been i'm
proved. In 1874 the peasants of Bava-
ria' were serfs, and it was violation
of the law to pay them more than 10
cents for a days work. The employer
who paid more suffered a fine of Sis,
and the laborer who demanded or ac-
cepted a higher rate of wages was
given eight days Imprisonment at hard
labor on bread and water and twelve
stripes with a rawhide across his bare
back each day besides. In 1902 the
American farm hand wants $3.50
day and his board, and any attempt to
put stripes on him would start an in
surrection.

In many places the town man with
his gun, out to kill something, becomes
a veritable terror to all forms of wild
life woodchucks, squirrels, even the
little red ones, and the chipmunks,
hawks, robins and song birds, all be-
come marks for him to shoot at. We
do not blame any man for posting his
land and shutting this sort out from
entering on the farm. No man on the
farm can afford to have this wild life
thus destroyed.

We are asked when is the best time
of year to prune and trim up trees, both
shade and orchard trees. We prefer
the last of May or the first of June for
shade and orchard trees, as then, the
sap being in full flow, the wounds
made on the trees are more quickly
healed over. Our hardy deciduous
shade trees, however, may be trimmed
at any time and suffer no i'll effects.
Water sprouts on fruit trees should be
cut whenever they make their appear

The lately formed farm machinery
trust concerns the farmers of the whole
country. 1t is in a financial way one
of the strongest trusts in the whole
country and has a practical cinch on
the business, for the reason that it con-
trolls very valuable patents. 1t is said
that the price of machinery is to be adj
vanced, and it probably will be, for
just as matrimony is the objective
point in courtship so higher prices and
bigger profits are the real objective
point of all trust schemes.
