The Old and The New Farm.

Selected.
Fifty years ago commercial fertili-
zers-guano, gypsum, superphosphate
of lime, etc.-were unknown in the
South. Drills and reapers were scarce
" heard OF, and were regarded simply
as curioslties. There we're no such
thing as rotation of crops, the sowing
OF cloyer or the use Of green crops for
renoyating the soil. Crop succeeded
crop until the soil ceased to produce,
and then the land was abandoned and
turned out to grow up in briars and
broomsedge.
Land was then so cheap and SO
abundant that it required less to pur-
chase new land than to reclaim old.
This has all been changed. The best
virgin soils have been occupied, and
the old-time farmer dnds that his
"clearings" n ust come to an end. The
coming farmer and the one who will
reap the richest rewards will be he who
can have the largest manure piles, the
best meadows and the finest stock
TiIlage must give place, to some ex-
tent, to grass, and toll on the farm in
large measure to skill in managing
stock.

Naming Farms-Farm Stationery

Wallace Farmer.
No flrst-class farmer should think
for moment of going without farm
stationery that Is, letter heads on
which Is printed his name, the name
OF the farm, the postoffice and the
number OF the rural route, and return
envelopes with his name and address
printed thereon.
Every farm should have a name
which should be par. Of the sddress
The mare of the farm should be par,
Of the address. The name of the farm
should be a matter for family coun.
Gil. 1t should be short, If possible
significant of the character OF the
farm, and should be different from the
name OF any other farm In the neigh
borhood.
Why should this be done? First, ii
makes the man himself and his famll,
feel letter. The COW is all the better
for having a name; the horse must
have one OF necessity. The farm
should have nalnc. A man thinks
more OF farm properly named than
he does of the same farm without o
name. 1t will not bring a bushel
more grain per acre, nor pound more
OF bay, but nevertheless the farmer
will think more of his farm II be goes
to the trouble of giving it name.
The man who receives a letter writ
ten on paper with the name, postoffice
and rural route printed thereon il
always more favorably impressed than
if written on piece ct blank paper
He says to himself, that the man il
more than an ordinary farmer. He
understands his business. He takes
pride in lis farm. His stationery
shows this.
The object of a letter is to make o
favorable impression and the printed
letter-head and stationery helps to
make this impression. The receiver
will always give the farmer credit 70,
being better business man II he re-
ceives from him letter written on ap-
propriate farm stationery.

Self-Pity Is Deadly.

Twentieth Century Home.
Selt-pity is the mark of deteriorat-
ing character. 1t is sure sign of the
dominance of egotism and of the de-
cay of moral vitality. So long as you
retain sense of proportion, so long as
your mind is healthy and your judg-
ment sound. you will never sink into
the mental slough of those vino ars
selt-pitying. You have buoyancy, a
good-humor and generosity OF spirit
which enable you to give and take
without any reslduum of malice, and
to recognize the rights and wrongs of
others as clearly as you recognize your
own. II things 60 amiss, and keep on
getting worse, you rouse yourself up to
face the inevitable with courage and a
stout heart. Meet misfortune in the
spirit OF the fighter, of the knight who
is not only brave but debonair, and
even il in the end you are beaten, yon
keep your self-respect and the respect
of others. You are like general who
yields to overwhelming numbers, and
then draws off his forces in good order,
defeated but not demoralized, and
ready at some future time to light
again. Eyen If i'll success should make
you stern and hareh and unforgiving,
this is not hopeless state Of mind, for
1t IS at least compatible with strength ;
and If prosperity return once more,
then the old hopeiulness and the old
geniality Will reassert themselves, ,st
as the buds and blossoms forca their
way into the world when the warm
spring sunshine puts an end to winter.
But If you let yourself sink into the
fateful habit of self-plty, then there is
absolutely no return for you, no resto-
ration, no renewal OF sanity; you slide
down and down the slope, losing bit by
bit your moral fioer, your intellectual
courage aud your self-respect.

II DIDN'T THINK"


If all the troubles in the world

We'd find not one in ten begun
From want of willing heart.
But there's sly, woe working elf,
Who Turks about youths brink,
And sure dismay he brings away
The elf, II didn't think"
He seems 30 sorry when he's caught,
His mein IS all contrite,
He 80 regrets the woe he's wrought,
And wants to make things right.
But wiehes do not heal wound,
Nor weld broken link;
The heart aches or, the link is gone
ALI through 81 didn't think"
When brain is comrade to the heart,
And heart from soul draws grace,
II didn't think" will quick depart
For lack OF resting place.

The golden rule We drink,
Well keep Gods laws and have no caus
To say, II didn't think"

10 TELL AGE OF A HORSE.

AT public sales one sees 50 many
old horses sold for young ores that te
who can tell their age feels no little
sympathy for neighbor who buys a
fourteen-year old and pays a slx-year.
old price for it. Nearly every one can
tell very old horse from very young
one. Frequently one sees sleek, fat
higd-liied animal passing, from gener.
al appearance, for five or six-year-old
that is fully twice as old.
/ A neighbor has a poor, run down
mare, four this spring, and the "gener-
al appearance" judge would say "she
is fifteen, anyhow" General appear
ances are no criterion. Neither are
the eyes, rof the ttlsks. as some claim
Some who assume to be authorities on
the horses say that ga horses teeth are
no index to its age" But l differ
from such authority.
The lower front teeth, if healthy
and natural, are practically an accur-
ate guide. A yearling has very short
teeth, with deep cups In center, the
two end ones being shorter than the
others.
A two-year-old has short teeth, with
comparatively shallow cups.
A three year-old has two long teeth
in center, with two short or "colt'
teeth on either side.
A four year-old has four long teeth
with one short ono on either side.
\ five-year-oid has six long tee tb
with deep cups in centers.
A six-year-old has shallow cups in
the two c=nter teeth.
A seyen-year-old has the center teeth
worn nearly smooth, cups OF second
pair shallow.
| An eight-year-old is CON moh:y
spoken Of as "smooth- -mouthed'
horse; j. e., no cups. As the animal
grows older the teoth become worn in
proportion. The corners of the end
teeth become rounded.
| To tell the age with any degree Of
accuracy beyond twelve requires much
experience aud the examination oi
many sets OF teeth.

mon nervous disorders as to frequently mis-
lead the attending physician. Often in cases
of heart trouble the stomach, kidneys, liver or
lungs become affected. Again the symptoms
may be those of weakened nerves, as tired
feeling, sleeplessness, timidity, the patient is
easily excitable and apt to worry without
cause. If you have the least suspicion that
