TILE DRAIN LEVEL.

I once employed a professional ditcher
to drain slough or pond hole. and,
, owing to its failure to perform its
work, the tiles were taken up and the
bottom of the ditch properly graded
with level, when 1t was discovered
that the grade at the outlet of the ditch
was 1S inches higher than the point 1t
was intended to drain. OF course, such
a piece of work proved Of short dura-
ton and very expensive.
1t often happens that the outlets Of
drains are allowed to become obstruct-
ed with silt coarse grass, etc, render
ing them nearly or quite useless. To
those who may contemplate the i'm
provement Of their farms by inaug-
urating a system of tile drainage, but
are deferred from doing so owing to
the impossibility of obtaining a profess
sional ditcher, allow me to state that
the services of ordinary farm help with
the oversight and assistance of the
farmer himself give as good, If not
better. results. Where a suitable fall

SOUNDS LIKE GOOD SENSE
Canadian Expert Says That Dairy
Cows Need But Very Little Ex-
ercise in Winter.

Regarding he exercise of dairy cows
in winter, Mr.. Glendinning, speaking
before the Western Ontario Dairymen's
association, said:
My experience. is that a COW does
not require much exercise when she Is
giving lot of milk, and we do not
make practice of letting our cows
out. | will give you an experience I
had two years ago. | hired a man to
take care of the stock, and l put him
In charge while l was out on institute
work. He had been there a couple of
weeks, and went to the stable Sunday
morning, and he said: Say, boss,
don't you think it would be a good
thing TO let these cows out and give
them little exercise?' He had always
worked for men who gave their cows
good deal of exercise; they gener-
ally had straw stack. said | did
not think they needed 1t. Well, he
thought they would be better, and l
thought 1t was an opportunity to teach
| him a lesson. There were two rows
OF cows, eight in each row, Is giving
milk and one dry, and | said: You
can let the cows out II you have a mind
to-. 1t was nice, warm morning, and
the snow was melting little outside.
He said: L will let this stable out
first No. said turn out both these
rows He said: There will be an aw-
ful run; we will never get them in ;
He turned them out, and the cows
backed out. and went out just the same
as they would II they had been turned
out every day, and every one of them
went out in that way till We came to
the dry one, and she went out with q
jump; and when the others saw her
running, they thought they would take
run, and they ran across the barn
yard four rods, and then they began
to stop and look around as much as to
say Well, this is not very ladylike. ;
and every one Of these cows went into
the stable inside of ten minutes. |
told him to let the doors remain open.
and not drive any Of them In, and they
all went In except the one that was
dry That was about the first of Feb
ruary, and these cows had not been
out OF the stalls from the 5th day OF
December. think II the dairy COW
required good deal of exercise these
COWS would have required 1t. They
were giving good lot of milk and
were well fed. have not very much
hesitation in saying the dairy COW does
not require very much exercise She
has great deal Of exercise In working
up the product she consumes in the
milk"

Des Moines has achieved great dig
nifty as the capital of Iowa, and is
much larger than it used to be. But
they still have one.night stands at
the theater.
Major Hoyt Sherman, a younger
brother of the General, who has
brought upr Des Moines, so to
speak, was descending from his Office
one cold, sunshiny winter day and
overheard the conversation of group
of girls gathered about the large
sleigh waiting to drive him home.
The girls, from their talk, were
strangers, and had never had sleigh
ride. Mr.. Sherman rose gallantly to
the occasion and invited them to 60
for one forthwith.
They had a delightful time-up and
down the principal streets of the town
and out into the country. Then Mr..
Sherman asked where he should set
them down.
Why" said one, looking up at the
town clock as they sped by the post
Office in fine style, "we'll get out at
the opera house, please its time for
a rehearsal"
Of course, the story got all over
town, and it is said that that evening,

FLOWER GIRL HITS KING.
Arrest--Ruler Orders Her
Released

Excess of loyalty and bad aim got
buxom flower girl, by name Margaret
Smith, into trouble.
When the king paid his visit to Lon
don recently to lay the foundation
stone of the new buildings of ST. Bar
tholomews hospital. Margaret, who as
matter of business sells sweet-smell-
ing roses in the Euston road thought
she would take a holiday in order that
she might see her sovereign.
Margaret, who brought an offering
with her-a lovely bunch of roses-took
up her stand where New oxford street
joins Shaftesbury avenue. AS the king
was driving by on his return the flower
seller threw her floral tribute into the
royal carriage with a God bless your
majesty"
But strong in the arm as well as
loyal Of heart, Margaret threw the
bunch harder than she knew, and
struck the king full in the face. His
majesty smiled, for he was not hurt,
while he understood the good intention
which lay behind the blow.
A Jealous constable, however, only
saw disloyalty and insult in the act
and Margaret was promptly marched
off to Bow street and locked up. For
tunately for the flower girl, the author
tiles at Bow street referred the matter
10 the king, with the result that his
majesty ordered the girls immediate
release.
To-day Margaret is more loyal than
ever, and when next she goes to see the
king she will take two punches of roses
but she will be more careful of her

PREFACE TO THE FUNDAMENTAL
LAW OF HAWAII.
Congress has expressly enacted a law
organizing Hawaii into a Territory
and extended the provisions of the
United States. Constitution to the Ter
ritory.
In a restricted sense, therefore, the
United States Constitution and the Or
ganic Act constitute Hawaii's funda-
mental law; but the Organic Act
specifically re-enacts the great body of
pre-existing Hawaiian statute law.
which was based upon the several Ha-
waiian Constitutions and organic laws.
A large proportion of the law gov
erning real estate, property and per-
sonal rights in Hawaii being based up
on these early constitutions and laws;
and presidents, decisions and court
practice having grown out of them, it
is necessary to consult them in order
to have a comprehensive understand
ing of existing Hawaiian law. They
are nearly all published, however, in
books now out of print. and in scattered
volumes, inaccessible to many, and in
conveniently located for all. In fact,
not even practicing lawyers in Hawaii
can, except at considerable loss of time,
place their hands on the laws and con-
stitutions necessary for the study and
decision of practical questions con-
tinually being presented to them.
Under these circumstances it is be-
Iieved that the public interest requires
the republication in convenient refer
ence form of what may be called the.
Fundamental law of Hawaii" To meet
this requirement. the following constitu-
tons, laws and documents have been
compiled under the common title of
1.-The Fundamental Law of Hawaii"
viz:
L. The first Constitution of Kane
hameha III, 1910, including the pre-
viously issued Bill of Rights.
2. The first laws of Hawaii, enacted
under Kamehameha III, (1S33-1S42),
published together in 1912.
g. The law creating and principles
guiding the Land Commission.
T. The second Constitution of Kane
hameha ILL., 1852.

up the situation in a single phrase, very
expressive, highly improper. but just
what might be expected from the lips
of a baff1ed buccaneer: We done our
d-est; angels can do no more.
They spent one year and $4,000 on
the expedition and had to answer qres-
tons when they got home. As Mr..
Chetwood explains:
stOf course we wanderers were objects
of some interest and amusement to o'fr
friends and acouaintances. And, equally
of course. some of them were at first
disposed to be facetious at our expense.
But we checked this tendency in sum

predicament. His vehement and per
haps published denials would be re
ceived by his enemies with unbelief. as
a matter Of course. AS for his friends.
the incredulity of ones friends under
such trying circumstances is one of the
most saddening traits of Our fallen
nature.
Brawn's unfailing excuse when asked
to name the location was that the ghosts
of the dead pirates were working to
battle the expedition.
The treasure is still buried.
