Farmers would have been mucn bet

had never been invented. There is
tendency TO depend too much on the
pad and not enough on fitting the coll,
lar to the shoulders of the horse. Many
old pads should be burned They are
hard filed with gum and dirt and
occupy a space on the collar that is
only cumbersome. Better have a cam
vas collar that will fit a particular
horse than all the sweat pads that
could be offered

Effect of Cutting Clover.

It Is found that red clover produces
more aftermath if the first crop has
not been cut too close. and especially
so, if very sunny weather occurs when
the crown of the root has recently
been exposed. 1t is contended that red
clover Is most permanent, and the az
termath is better when the crop is cut
by the scythe than where the moving
machine is employed. This result has
been ascribed to the cut surface made
by the scythe being somewhat oblique
and so running off the rain, whereas
the cut of the machine is perfectly
horizontal, allowing the rain to enter
and to rot the root, but it is probable
that the greater length of the stubble
generally left by the scythe Is the true

Reflections of a Bachelor.

Not all men are bad, not all women
good.
The greatest passion in the world
is vanity; the most powerful weapon
flattery.
There is no age at which a
woman's heart will not melt to the
man who smiles upon her.
Beware of the man who approaches
you with the promise that he has
come to do you a favor.
1t is the little things that tell. A
man who is facing bankruptcy and
dishonor with a courageous smile
Will fly into Mysteries when he can't
get his collar buttoned.
There will be some way of under
standing women when some one can
explain now woman will think a
matinee hero is like a god, and yet
have her blood run cold at the
thought of her son being like him.

A Partisan paper relates the fol
lowing story of a contest in boast
ing which, it says, took place be-
tween three artists.
"My DEAR said one of the artists,
yesterday painted a pine board
in imitation Of marble and did it
with such fidelity that when the
board was put into a pond Of water
it sunk like stone"
''Pooh!" said the second. ''That
is nothing. Yesterday | happened
to hang up my thermometer on the
back of the frame of my View In
the Arctic Regions and the mercu-
ry instantly went down to 20 de-
grees below zero"
Cali that is nothing at all said
the third artist. 'You know my
portrait of the old Marquis of Ca
margne? Well, it is so lifelike that
it has to be shaved three times a
W0ek."
