WHICH ARe YOU 2

There are two kinds Of people on earth
to-day,
Just two kinds Of people, no more, | say.
Not the sinner and saint, for It's well
understood
half-good.
Not the rich and the poor, for to count
a mans wealth
Ion must first know the state of his con-
science and health.
ACT the humble and proud, for in life's
little span
Who puts on vain airs is not counted a
man.
Not the HAPPY and sad, for the swift
flying years
Bring each man his laughter and each
man his tears.
10; the two kinds of people on earth
mean
Are the people who lift, and the people
who lean.
Wherever you go. you will find the
worlds masses
Are always divided in just these two
classes.
And oddly enough. you viii find, too,
ween,
There is only one litter to twenty who
lean.
In which class are you? Are you easing
the lead
OF overtaxed Iifters who toll down the
roadI
Or are you a leaner, who lsts others bear
Your portion OF laboE.-aad worry and

It is not deaf mutes alone who en-
ploy the sign language. Railroaders
have a tongue of this sort that, since
railroading began, has been growing
until now anything that needs to be
said in it can be expressed as perfect
ly as in words. The signals of rail-
readers are made with the hands and
arms in the daytime, and with a liant
ern in the dark, the lantern signals,
by the way, being comprehensive at
4 far greater distance than the daytime
one. The latter are made with one
arm or with both, at the brakeman s
option. To go ahead, to stop and to
back are the leading ones. The arms
moved horizontally and vertically
make the two first signals; the back
turned and the arms pushed out makes
the last one. The main lantern sig
nails are an up-and-down, a crosswise
and 8 circular movement. There are,
Of course, hundred other minor sig
nails, and these vary slightly in differ
emit parts of the country. But the
main ones are as common and as in
telligible everywhere among Ameri-
can railroaders as the English langu-
age itself.-Philadelphia Record.

Slipping Plants.

In taking slips from plants for root
ing many persons take off the young
branches from the sides and base of
the stock, forcing it to eXpend all its
energies in sending out new growth
from the top, and the result is
"scraggy" plant. Try taking your
slips from the very top of the plant,
leaving all sprouts at the base and
sides of the old stalk, and you will
be surprised to find what nice bushy
plants you will have in short time.
Geraniums, coleus, begonias and pelar-
goniums are benefited by such prun-
ing. Long branches of wandering jew
may be put into a bottle of water and
hung behind picture so that the vines
will twine about it, making a pretty
decoration while the roots are form
ing and the little branches are start
ing out along the stem.-The Epito-

Winter Washing of Fruit Trees.

The winter season offers the fruit
grower his opportunity for wreahing
vengeance on the insect enemies which
play such incalculable havoc with the
fruit trees in the summer months. The
insects are practically at his mercy in
the dead season, for they cannot flee
from the deadly poison he may with
safety apply for their destruction, and
if the owners of orchards care to eX-
ercise their powers of quelling infes-
tation at the proper time and in the
proper way then can largely diminish
if not entirely remove the risk of
harmful insect attacks. The board of
agriculture has prepared and is circu-
lating free of charge leaflet dealing
with this subject which is deserving
Of thoughtful attention.
AS is we'll known the insects hiber
nate in the broken bark of the trees,
and the course of treatment proposed
is the washing of the trees with caus-
tic alkali wash, the use of which has
been found effectual in removing the
rough decaying bark under which the
insects shelter, and at the same time
in destroying the eggs of noxious in
sects. The directions given for the
preparation of the wash are: First dis
solve one pound of commercial caustic
soda in water; then one pound of
crude potash in water. When both
have been dissolved mix the two well
together; then add three-quarters
pound Of agricultural treacle. stir well,
and add sufficient water to make up to
10 gallons. The best time to apply
is about the middle of February, when
the eggs are in more susceptible
state and the trees still safe from in
iury.-London Post.

To-day we are the same race, with

because there is no longer a frontier
to absorb our overplus of energy, be-
cause there is no longer wilderness

when our ancestors before us founded
the outlet for their activity checked
and rebounding, turned their faces
eastward, and went down to invade the
Old World. So we. No sooner have
we found that our path westward has
ended than, reacting eastward, we are
at the Old World again, marching
against it, invading It, devoting our
overplus to its subjugation.

marsh people, we are now come into

of our century is no longer war but

Orchard Grass.

Those who have sown orchard grass
along with clover on land adapted to
its growth have usually been well sat
lsfied with it, as the two are fit to cut
about the same time, or much nearer
together than either of them with tim
othy. They also should have the seed
scwn at the same time, that is. as early
in the spring as the ground can be
made fit. AS its name indicates it
grows well in the orchard or anywhere
in the shade, and it likes a rich, sandy
loan, deep and moist. On such soils
it. starts early in the spring and grows
rapidly, thus it makes a good grass
for permanent pasture, but when the
ground is strong enough it is more val
liable for hay, as it's rapid growth en-
ables one to get two or often three
crops a year. 1t needs to be sowed
thickly, say three bushels when sown
alone, or two bushels with Is pounds
red clover seed per acre when they
are grown together, as if sown thin it
makes coarse straw, that is rather
poor hay, especially if not cut quite
early enough. 1t needs considerable
curing, but if cured as we would cure
clover, mostly by sweating in the heap,
it makes a hay that is much relished
by horses. Some SOW the clover and
orchard grass and add about five
pounds of white clover seed to the
above mixture, mix together well, and
after cutting the hay one or two years
make a pasture of it. This is very
good way, especially if the field is one
that the blue grass and red top will
come in naturally.
