COWS, flecter and fiercer than their
males, were leading on. Halfsa dozen
cowboys skirmished before, shooting
and iashing out desperately, trying
to baclS-fire by q counter-panic,
taking chances Of life with every
gOpher.holc. But there was NO
checking that mass; when steer
dinched before the heavy whip, no
was pushed ON from behind. And
ever they beloved, with . note Of
tigers in their voices.
A moment Belle ran before tho
herd; then calling to the roam, who
understood as only q cow-horse can
understand, she cut an Oblique
course across the herds face. She
gained the road; the herd was be-
hind her, and the roam, gathering
his nerve for final squirt, made for
the wagon. She shouted, but the
roar behind drowned her voice, and
so she reached for the holster,
where Emilio kept his knife. AS she
whipped it out and drew even,
reaching for the carcass, the wagon
slackened and stopped. Her own
horse swerved in his course, and
shot past before she could check him.
The off-horse, what with fear and
exhaustion, had stumbled and fallen
dead. And the wedge was coming on,
now but quarter of mile away.
Deadly as was their fear, the two
Engishmen, who had jumped to the
ground, stood and stared to see her
turn in beside the standing horse
and, without any ceremony, cut his
traces, and reins. He reared and
plunged; Justin caught his bride.

she had pushed Dudley to her roam,

AS the snorting horses bounded
away the roar was almost on their

great, dull crash. Looking back, the
girl saw that they were no longer fol-
lowed. The dust cloud was q whirl-
pool that rolled and tumbled over
the spot where the wagon had been.
For only minute; the cowboys
closed in and the panic was over.
Slowly the men beat back the sullen,
stated demons. And when the press
split there was no wagon at all
only broken wheels and scattered bits
of woodwork, and fattened belong

The two men dismounted and
turned to the girl. Then was she

her hips, and of the manner in which
she had ridden. Her color rose and
she jumped down. She turned redder

q neighbour. Mr.. Bowman was cut

the sheep began to run after the
chips, and so the tree was opened up
with the result, he says, that every
head of stock went mad over it,
Mr.. Bowman, although he has no
grass, has bought 900 merino ewes

An instance is given of 15-year-old
pet wether, without tooth, growing
fat since eating the tree. Any kind
of stock will eat the wood after q
little use of it. Mr.. Bowman consid-
ers that it will soon be carried on

stated that cows which were almost
dry from want of condition are now
not only fat and strong. but are CIV

trees often contain from so to 100
tons of fodder. There are plenty of
bottle trees within easy reach of the
railways. Mr.. Bowman believes that

tree is allied to the equity stem tree
(Adansonia Gregorii), being thick
ened below, tapering upwards, or
often swollen in the middle to the
extent of 80 to 40 feet in circum-
ference, with an apparently small
tree growing out of its apex, so that
it has been compared to the neck
of bottle. The equity stem is soft
and porous, and contains much muci-
laginous gum, which is readily oh
tanned by pressure, and is used as
an article of food by the natives. II

TIE INTELLIGENT FARMER.


E. L. Vincent says in Farm and
Fireside: Few of NJ get the best
there Is in our farms. That Il be-
cause we do not put the best there
Is in us into them. There isn't much
use in expecting great things on the
farm unless we are willing to plan.
work and study how to get those
great things. How shall we go at
it to do that? In the first place, the
soil must be in good state Of fer
tility. This means that we have
carefully saved up every particle Of
barnyard manure we have, and have
seconded this effort by judicious
use of commercial fertilizer. It
means, too, that we have not pre-
viously cropped the land to death.
Then we will pillow thoroughly. Not
one man out of ten in this country
knows how to plow; or, if he does,
he has not the grit and the gump-
ton TO do it. Once in awhile we
meet farmer who insists that this
part of the farm work shall be done
thoroughly. He is on the way to
success. It was an old Scotchman
who said: .Ye dinna ken how to
plow in this coontry; We on'y
scratch the groom And that L.
about what most of us farmers do
we scratch the ground. And again,
to get the best there is in our farma
we must use the harrow more faith
fully. The farmer has no better tool
than good harraw. say good
harrow, because hosts of farmers
have not such thing as first-class
harrow on the place. They are work
ing away with the same old W
shaped drag their fathers used, or
else have picked up at some sale u
WORKOUT thing not worth bringing
home. No good work can be done
with such a tool. Harrows of an up
to-date pattern are reasonable in
price nowadays, and every farmer
ought to have one or more. Good,
clean seed is requisite, too. No
use to sow seed that will not grow,
or that is full of weed seed. This
may mean the purchase of fan
ming mill, to be used in recleaning
seed. We may better do this than
to seed our farms down with foul
weeds. But, finally, we will fail aft
er all if we do not keep the weeds
down in every crop that can be cul-
tivated. This means steady work
for a few weeks in the spring of the
year. until the potatoes have been
hilled up and the corn is too large to
admit Of working q horse through
it. But the end tells the story.
Other things being equal, the man
who puts himself into his work as
I have here described may rest as
sured of a good crop-the best the
soil will produce. And that ought
to make him happy"

THE ONE. SURE THING.

IT'S not the Girl with reddish heir
Whose dispositl3 n's sunniest:
IT'S not the man who always Jokes
Whose stories are the funniest;
IT'S not the richest millionaire
/. Perhaps who eats the most:
The babe that has the finest care
May soon give up the ghost.
She may not be the sweetest girl
Who has the waist that's slenderest:
The largest OK may not yield up
The steak that is the tenderest:
The man who holds his head up high
Above the toiling crowd
May have less cause than you or !.
In fact for feeling proud.
The deacon with the pious air
May not be quite the hottest;
The child that's born in poverty
May not remain the lowliest;
But this is sure-as sure as fate
The one who boldly asks 4.
Gets more than those who hope and wait
And just perform their tasks.

ii Pays to Use Scales.

Every farm should have its scales
and the farmer should use them. Ex-
perience proves that in marking hay,
grain, live stock, etc., one cannot al
ways rely on the figures he must take
from the dealer. Then, where he is
feeding stock, he is running great risk
If he does not weigh the amount Of
feed put into the lot, and determine
the rate of gain the animals are maxi
ing by weighing at least once q week.
It pays, as many successful feeders
know, by experience, TO know as soon
as loss in the rate Of gain begins. It
pays to know on what feed the ami
mails do best, and to figure out the
amount of profit. You cannot do this
without pair Of good scales.-Mid-
