IN TIE EVENING HUSH.

All Always thus IN the eerle time
'Twixt night and day, l can hear the chime
From the clock OF fate, on either hand
From the curtained past and the unknown
land
have dreamed about but have never seen I;
And bark TO both as / sit between,
While the white ones mingling come and go
Ia the evening hush when the lights are
low?
There are ghosts of dreams that dreamed
when young;
When hope her shimmering bright scarf
flung
All jeweled streaming adown the sky,
And loves bright -chariots thundered by.
Bright dreams they were; but the brightes,
now
Are they of the palest and care-hned brow
When the ghosts Of the old days come and
go
In the evening hush when the lights are
low
The freight dies and the night is here;
The Pickering shadows disappear
To roam again In the far-of land
And beckon me with a spectral hand
All, we'll not long till !, too shall be
A silent one OF the company,
And haunt the gloom and the frclights
glow
In the evening hush when the lights are
low.

Hay in Round Bales.

The cylindrical bale has become very
popular for hay and cotton, and many
shippers are discarding their old
presses TO get one that will press it in
this form. The diameter bale Is eigh-
teen inches in diameter and thirty-siX
inches long. The pressure used III
packing for home use puts about 200
pounds in such n bale, but when in
tended for export they use higher
pressure and get in about 27J pounds.
\ bale put up for army use is but half
rs long. or eighteen inches, and weighs
about $40 pounds 1t is calculated that
Il good pack horse or mule will travel
with one Of these on each side, and
they can 20 where the army wagons
could not. Thousands Of tons Of these
round bales have been shipped 10 our
army in the Philippines, and large
amount to the British Army in South
Africa. In this form q given weight
of hay is compressed into about one
half the space that il occupied in the
square bale, and the fact that il does
not pack as closely in car or vessel,
there being spaces between the bales,
which prevents moulding, preserves
the sweetness of the hay, and the close
pressure in the bale reduces the COM
bustibility. For cotton many of the
same advantages are claimed for the
round bale. that is. getting more in
small space and reducing danger from

Feeding Hogs Indoors.

In order 10 determine the value OF
indoor and outside feeding the Ontario
agricultural college fed hogs Of several
breeds out OF doors and in a hog lot
Both those outside and in were fed
twice a day what grain meal they
would eat readily. This meal consist
cd OF two parts barley 10 one part mid
dlings by weight. The inside hogs
were fed all they would eat Of green
feed, tares and rape being cut and
taken 10 them. The hogs on the out
side were allowed 10 pasture on rape
and tares. Results show that the hogs
outside ate more meal and made slow
er gains than those fed inside. The
conclusion was reached that feeding
hogs on pasture is very expensive.
However. the time required for taking
care OF hogs on the outside was just
about half OF that required for those
on the inside
