Standing midway between the

fertile region on the globe, she is
the empress by divine right of the
grandest empire known. Next to-
Chicago the greatest hog packing

logical and inevitable market for
the cattle of a million hills and the
hogs of ten million farms. Com

the future, grounded upon a firm
commercial basis, and enterprising

her proud head toward the watch

streets, eighty-two and one-half
miles of which are paved. The
sewer system embraces one hun

of dollars. An efficient street car
service connects all parts of the
city with Council Blaffs, South

electric lighting and power plants

The census of 1900 gave Omaha

Paying for Separate" cream-Cattle
Feeds,

The Vermont Experiment Station has
just issued bulletins 100 and 101.
No. 100 discusses paving for separator
cream at creameries. 1t points out why
more should be paid proportionately to
those patrons who sell cream than to
those VINO deliver milk. Some creameries
do make this distinction; but more do
not: and all should do so. 1t also indicates
some of the common errors of cream
sampling and analysis, and suggests
means whereby they may be avoided.
Every patron of a creamery, particularly
those who own hand separators, should
send for and read this bulletin. 1t may
be had without charge for the asking.
No. 101 discusses the feed trade of the
state 1t warns buyers of cottonseed
meal to be particularly watchful lest
adulterated goods be foisted upon them,
since there are indications that these
will be offered this fall in larger vol
ume than hitherto. 1t describes simple
means by which anyone can detect such
authorizations.
Either or both of these bulletins will
be mailed without charge to any address
on request. Inquirers desiring to receive
future issues should ask that their names
be placed on the mailing list. A postal
card addressed to the Experiment station
Burlington, Vermont, stating desires is
sufficient

The Friend Gone Before.

Though he that ever kind and true
Kept stoutly step by step with you
Your whole long gusty lifetime through
Be gone awhile before
Be now a moment gone before,
Yet doubt not. soon the seasons shall
restore
Your friend to you.
He has but turned a corner-still
He pushes on with right good will,
Through mire and marsh, by heugh and
hill
That self-same arduous way
That self-same upland hopeful way
That you and he through many doubt
full day
Attempted still.
He is not dead, this friend-not dead,
But in the path we mortals tread,
Got some few, trifling steps ahead,
And nearer to the end,
So that YOU too, once past the bend
Shall meet again, as face to face, TINS
friend
You fancy dead.
Push gayly on, strong heart! The while
You travel forward mile by mile,
He loiters with a backward smile
Till you can overtake,
And strains his eyes, to search MS wake
Or whistling, as he sees you through the
brake
Waits on a stile.

Work..

Let me do my work from day to day,
In field or forest, at the desk or loom,
In roaring market-place or tranquil
room;
Let me but find it in my heart to say,
When Vagrant wishes beckon me astray'
This is my work; my blessing, not my
doom; . f.t.....
OF all who live, 1 am the one by whom
This work can best be done, in the right
way" lY.
Then shall | see it not too great, nor

To suit my spirit and to prove my
powers;
Then shall | cheerful greet the labor
ing hours
And cheerful, turn when the long shad-
ows fall
At eventide to play and love and rest
Because / know for me my work is best.

Faith.

Fain, would l hold my lamp of life abort
Like wonder tower built high above the
reef;
Steadfast, though tempests rave or winds
blow soft,
Clear, though the sky dissolve in tears
of grief.
For darkness passes; storms shall not
abide;
a little patience and the fog is past
After the sorrow of the ebbing tide
The singing flood returns in JOY at last
The night is long and pain weighs
heavily;
But God will hold his world above de-
spair.
Look to the east where up the lucid SKY
The morning climbs! The day shall YET
be fair.
