The dachshund is a dog. He is very
short up and down. and very long
lengthwise His forelegs are quite
crooked, which is good thing for
him, because if they were Strengthened
up his shoulders would be about four
inches higher than the remainder of
him. The dachshund wears his ears
low down. He is quite dociIe but pre-
fers the German language to any 9th
er. 1t is amusing to see a dachshund
chasing his tail, which he cannot do
gracefully on account of not having
enough legs. If l had to be a dog |
would much rather be a large New

Farm Wells.

The location of the well on the farm
is one of the greatest Importance. In
many instances the farmer starts his
well near the buildings and yards an
selects the lowest point as a location,
with the idea that he will not have
to dig as deep as he would upon high
er land. This is often mistake. as
we know of several places in a village
where the wells near the top of the
hill are not as deep and are not as
much affected by drouth as those on
the lower land at the foot of the hill.
though there may be fifty or a hun
ired feet difference in this elevation
But the chief objection to the well on
the low ground is that it receives the
surface drainage from the higher land
and thus the water soon becomes so
contaminated as to be unfit for use
either by the family or the animals,
for 10 be healthy they must have pure
water In these days of driven wells
a pipe can often be sunk on the high
est gravel knoll or sand hill on the
farm more cheaply than in the low
land. and when water is reached 1t is
pure and will continue so. because
the surface water runs away from II
and not toward it. If windmill is
erected the wind power Is better, anu
by tank and pipes water can be
brought to house. barn and yards. or
carried to irrigate the garden ana
strawberry bed in way to make II
doubly pay for itself. first in savings
of daily hard labor at the pump ana
next in increased crops by having a
water supply when needed. We heard
a market gardener near Boston say.
a few years ago, that he put down
driven wells bought a steam engine
and pump, built tank and laid pipes,
and the increased value of his crops
paid the whole expense the first year
including cost of running the engine.
Many man who thought he could
not afford to put in a new well has
paid out more cash for doctors ana
undertaker's bills than the well would
have cost.-American CultiYator.

DaffOdil and
~We NarCissuSs

What is the differencerksaan u
daffodil and NarciSsus ?n. is a quesz.
ton often asked. The Journal OF Hor-
ticulture answers the question in the
following way: "Daffodils are Elf Mar
cissi. though all Narcissi are J1ot Daft
fodils. Only those Narcissi with trum-
pets longer than the length of the pc
rianth segments are properly daffo-
dis"
Under whatever name they properly
belong. however, they are always sweet
and lovely, although the common, old
time, homely name daffodil comes
more readily to our lips than Narcis-
sus, and carries a charm which the
other somehow seems to lack
1t is recommended that daffodils and
Narcissus should be cut for indoor
decoration when the buds are opening.
and the stalks should be left long, as
the flowers can then be grouped bet
ter, says Florence Beckwith in Vick's
Magazine. Put as many blossoms to-
gether as you wish, but each kind
should be in a separate glass. Don't
bunch them: let each blossom have
room enough to show itself in all its
beauty.
adapted to the growth of the daffodil
than ours. and the 'daffodil fever
RACES there with great severity. The
flower is seen everywhere in gardens.
streets and houses. Daffodil societies
exist and annual exhibitions are held
which people travel long distances to
attend. A kind of daffodil mania ex-
lists at the present time and some new
varieties command exorbitant prices:
others no money can buy, as those who
own them are so proud OF them.
In Ireland much land is devoted to
their culture, and the enormous guam
titles and the high values of choice
bulbs which can be grown on an acre
of suitable land are astonishing.
In our own country daffodils are be
ing more largely cultivated every year
In California they are being raised in
large quantities for the market and one
cultivator has gained the title of The
Lady of the Daffodils," from her sue
cess in growing them. A more charm
ing industry can scarcely be imagined
and it would seem that more women
might find congenial and profitable oc-
cupation in this line in suitable loca-
tons
