THE SHEPHERD OF THE SEA.

am mighty shepherd, and many are
my fiocks;
lead them, l feed them among the
weedy rocks;
My shepherds crook is fashioned out
of a Norway pine,
And there's no sheep-dog in the world
will herd these f1ocks of mine.
My fold is wide, and day and night the
walls shift Of my fold,
No upland, no lowland my 1ambing
ewes withhold
From the cry of their shepherd, the
reckoning of his hand,
For my own desert places they leave
the pasture-land,
With wild white feeces surging about
me to my knee,
I go about my herding, the Shepherd
of the Sea;
| call to the rock pastures the white
sheep of the waves,
For they but find their grazing where
sailors find their graves.
l am a mighty shepherd, and mighty
focks have L;
1 lead the, feed them while stars are
in the sky;
And when the moon is waning on
sheltered shore and lee,
| rest not nor slumber, the Shepherd
of the Sea.

principal agricultural products of the
state. The cinder and gravel walks
serve as promenades.. Thus a labyrinth
Of passageways is created and the vis1-
tor may wend his way through the
maze and see by actual demonstration
just what crops are grown in every
part of the United States and how they
are raised. The cereals will be the
features of the great northwest. while
down in Florida will be seen growing
the pineapple and orange and other
semi-tropical fruits and crops To
bacco will be prominent feature of
Kentucky's allotment, while sugar
cane and cotton will be found growing
in the plots of ground representing
other southern states. Not only will
the products of each state be shown
on this map by growing crops, but
the section Of the state on which each
commodity is most grown will be
shown. In the state of Washington
the map shows that wheat, corn, po-
atoes, hay and the wild grasses that
luIlNS III luS SSD1l-dI1u ulSI1cIS are
more largely grown in the eastern por-
ton, while in the west hay, clover,
vetches, timothy, orchard hay and
grasses, hops, strawberries and black
berries are more grown. Thus on the
small plot of ground that represents
one great state will be found a score
Of different crops growing. There will
be no actual dividing line between
the growing crops, though in the cases
of the various grasses, wheat, barley
and buckwheat, the line is as dis
tinctively drawn by wave of color as
is the line that divides the muddy
waters of the Mississippi from those
of the comparatively clear Ohio at
the junction of the two rivers at Cairo.

FARM WORK INTERRUPTED,
Rains Too Frequent and Sometimes
Excessive

| The Wisconsin crop bulletin for the
week ending June /, notes that farm
work during the week was seriously
! interfered with by the frequent and in
many sections excessive rains, which
rendered the soil much too wet to
work. Severe local storms occurred
generally over the entire state during
the early part of the week, and being
accompanied by heavy rains, resulted
in considerable damage by washing,
especially to cornfields. The early
part of the week was decidedly warm,
but on Thursday rapid fall in tenn
Iperature occurred, which checked the
growth of vegetation. In some of the
northern counties the temperature ap-
preached the frost point, but no
damage from this source is reported
Thus far there has been no very
serious damage on account Of the con-
tinuOus rains, but sunshine and warm
weather is needed for the completion
of corn and potato planting.
The conditions during the week
have not been unfavorable to the
growth of winter wheat and rye which
have attained very rank growth. In
the southern counties winter wheat is
heading out rapidly and gives every
indication of a satisfactory crop. Rye
has made rapid growth, the growth of
straw being unusually heavy. The
continued rains have not been
beneficial to spring rains, and the
tendency toward yellowness, showing
poor vitality, which was noted last
week, has rather increased during the
present week. Much of the low lane
has been flooded from time to time
since these grains were sown, and uns
less there Is much sunshine and warm
weather within the next two weeks a
considerable loss will undoubtedly re-
suit. On upland these crops are not
suffering. Practically no advance
ment was made during the week
toward the completion of corn plant
ing. Early paintings have terminated
fairly we'll and in the southern coun
ties are generally ready for cultiva
ton. In the northern sections about
Ione-half the crop remains to be
planted.
The wet condition of the soil
rendered potato planting impossible
during the week. The early paintings
are up, but the weeds are growing
rapidly and warm, dry weather is
needed for this crop. Tobacco plants
continue to make fairly good growth.
but no transplanting has been at
tempted. The preparation of the
ground for tobacco has been delayed
by the rains. Grass is making very
rapid growth and large hay crop is
practically assured. Clover is I'M
usually heavy. Pastures are good and
feed abundant. The cold weather
with strong northeast winds has not
been favorable to fruit, although no
serious damage is reported. The
strawberry crop promises to be large
and the fruit of good quality, where
not injured by the frost. Cranberries
are reported in good condition. The
present condition of apples, plums and
cherries is satisfactory.

MR.. PARSONS'S TRACK.

When William B. Parsons, chief en-
glneer of the New York rapid transit
commission, was young man he was
set rebuilding a piece of railroad
track. Arthur Goodrich in the Worlds
Work tells what happened when Mr..
Parsons, Sr., accompanied his son on
trip over the division. When the
young supervisor told him about the
bad condition of the track, he said
that he thought it remarkably smooth
and solid.
oh, but this is the part 1 have re-
built his son explained. wen
come to the end of it in a minute and
then you'll notice the difference"
Before his father had time to repIv
the train was thrown from the track
by the breaking of driving-wheel of
the locomotive and landed upside
down at the bottom of a fourteen-foot
embankment Father and son found
themselves seated opposite each other.
unhurt, on the ceiling of the car.
There, what did 1 tell you9" re-
marked young Parsons quietly.
Yes, son, it is rougher," his father
admitted readily.

Value of Time in Corea.

Recently a high dignitary in Seoul
called upon a Japanese who was stay
ing there in connection with the Seoul
Fusan Railway. The talk turned On
how long it would take to travel from
the Corean capital to Fusan when the
railway was completed. About twenty
hours, said the Jap.
The Corean assumed a very per-
picked air. ''The distance requires
at present, The remarked, with a know
ing look, ''about six days. How should
| spend the remaining five days and
Jour hours if the journey can be done
in twenty hours by train?''

in other words, long before bacteria
had been discovered, the butter maker
used to set his cream aside and allow
his unsuspected helpers to produce
certain chemical changes in the cream
before it was churned. These
changes if carried too far spoil the
cream but ii stopped at the right hour
vastly improve it for butter making.
Scientific examination of this phe-
nomenon discovered that it was
bacterial action that produced these
changes and discovered also a reason
for the perplexing fact that the
changes were not uniform There are
bacteria and bacteria and by a further
examination of them the bacterf-
ologists have found the best bacteria
for the butter maker, have found
means to cultivate these particular
dalryman's assistants in what are
called pure cultures" and these
pure cultures" are now used in butter
making in much the same fashion as
prepared yeast, which is another re-
suit of bacterial assistance. is used
in the bakery. Their use has de-
veloped during the last six years to
such an extent that June butter, for
merly obtained only in spring and
early summer, is now produced by
many dairymen straight through the
season. The June butter of a decade
ago, that is, was due to the presence
of particular bacteria not present
earlier in the year, which have been
captured and are now widely culti-
waited by expert PSYCHOLOGISTS.
What has been accomplished in the
way Of furnishing the proper bacteria
for butter making points naturally to
the hope that the same thing may be
accomplished in the processes of
cheese manufacture. So far, however,
although some advance has been made
in the right direction this ideal con-
GitiCn has not been established, al
thought the fact has been proven that
the cheese makers bacterial allies are
of even greater Importance than those
that assist the butter makers. Just
as different kinds of bacteria are the
important factors in producing butter
of various degrees of excellence, so
are different bacteria undoubtedly re-
sponsible for the wide variety Of
cheeses. If IL were possible to select
and cultivate these different bacteria
it would follow that the production
of each kind of cheese could be re-
.duced to an almost mathematician
science.
