fair and easy up to see him, and the
house he was speaking about. But
when the sarpint saw the nine great
bouts upon the chest, he thought he
was sould, (betrayed) and was for
making off with himself as fast as ever
he could.
'''Tis nice warm house, you see,
says Saint Patrick, and it's good
friend l am to YOU
~ thank you kindly, Saint Patrick,
for your civility, says the sarpint, but
think it's too small it is for me-
meaning it for an excuse, and away
he was going.
"'Too SMALL says Saint Patrick,
Stop, if you please says he you're
out in that, my boy, anyhow am sure
twill fit you completely; and, I'll tell
you what says he, IN bet you gallon
of porter says he, that if you'll only
try and get in, there'll be plenty of
room for YOU
The sarpint was as thirsty as could
be with his walk, and twas great joy
to him the thoughts of doing Saint
Patrick out of the gallon of porter;
SO, swelling himself up as big as he
could, in he got to the chest, all but
little bit of his tail. There, now,
says he, I've won the gallon, for you
see the house is too small for me, for
l can't get in my tail When, what
does Saint Patrick do, but he comes be-
hind the great heavy lid of the chest,
and, putting his two hands to it, down
he slaps it, with bang like thunder.
When the rogu- of a sarpint saw the
lid coming down. in went his tail, like
shot, for fea1 of it being whipped
off him, and Saint Patrick began at
once to boult the nine iron bouts.

FORESTRY FOR FARMERS.
United States Government Is Doing
Much Toward Encouraging
Study of the Science.

The farmers of this country own
about 50O,O0O,OoO acres of woodland,
ten times the acreage of all the federal
forest reserves. Most of it consists
of small woodlots from which the
owners derive their timber supplies for
farm purposes.
1t was to help the farmer in caring
for his timber land that the bureau
of forestry several years ago UNDER
took to furnish him, withoutcost with
the services of its foresters. The offer
proved popular, and applications for
assistance have far exceeded the ability
of the bureau, with it's limited number
OF trained foresters, to answer them.
During the season just passed the bu-
reau has accomplished more than ever
before in putting small woodlots under
forest management and in teaching
the farmer how properly to treat his
timber. Two experts have been en-
ployed in the north and south who
have examined and have put under
management several thousand acres
of woodland.
A great deal of wood is consumed
every year on the farm for fuel, posts,
poles and other uses. Ordinarily, the
farmer cuts what he needs without
thought as to whether he is lessening
the power of his forest constantly to
yield its supplies. The result is that
the forest becomes poorer every year
and less able to furnish the wood its
owner needs. The skill the farmer
exercises in the management of his
crops is not of the kind that enables
him to manage properly his timber.
lie needs the services of forester.
Usually, only one visit to the farm
by the bureaus expert is necessary,
and this service is given without cost
to the owner. When, as occasionally
happens, a second visit is needed, the
owner is required to pay the travelling
and living expenses of the expert while
employed at the work.

for all that, there was one oud sarpint
left, who was too cunning to be talked

himself. Saint Patrick didn't well

strong iron chest made, with nine
bouts upon it.

walk to where the sarpint used to
keep; and the sarpint, who didn't like
the; saint in the least, and small blame
to aim for that, began to hissand show
his teeth at him like anything. oh,

Arranging Flower Beds.

For small yards it is best to plant
the flowers along the fence and
around the house, and leave the rest
of the yard in grass, as a small yard
cut up in beds will not show to adj
vantage, says a writer in Rural
World. Make border of about three
or four feet and plant with roses
and hardy plants, and put hyacinths
and tulips along the edge of the bor-
der and you will be pleased with the
result. Climbing roses and vines
around the porch or portico will be
splendid. Clematis is II good vine for
shade on the porch, for. by giving it
plenty of water, it will bloom almost
all summer. Clematis can be rooted
the same as roses, by TALKING cuttings
in the fall and putting them under
glass cans.
