from its liver surpasses all other

the proprietors of Scott's Emul-

cod liver oil SO that everyone can
take it and get the full value Of
the oil without the Objectionable

When a gate is Of considerable

danger that they will sag. and mainly
because the device used for the latch

constructing latch and see if it does

in !. shape, making one arm one-Quar-
ter of an inch longer than the thick

the other arm should be about ten
inches long. Bore hole through the
post under the board near the edge of
the post, put the threaded end of the
bent iron through and screw on the
nut Have the same arrangement at
the lower part of the gate. When the
gate is to be closed. turn the bar so
that it will not be in the way and so
when the gate is closed it will rest

Sheep Notes.

Feed only what the sheep will eat
up clean.
Divide the flock according to age,
size and sex.
Arrange to afford the ewes plenty OF
opportunity to exercise.
Feed the fleece and at the same time
feed the body which is to produce it.
The foods which conduce most to
bodily growth will make the best wool.
In order to get good fleece the
sheep must be kept in a vigorous con-
dition.
4 well-growlng and vigorous condi-
ton in the sheep is best for wool
growing.
Don't buy ram unless he has n
good length of wool on his belly and
legs.
Following the careful selection I'm
buying and judicious breeding come
the factors Of care and feed
Sheep are rustlers. cleaners, scaven-
gers and quarterly dividend payers, for
they give you WOOL lambs and NUT

Wool is very heterogeneous, and to
grow good fleece of wool with
strong fiber and OF good quality. feed

When buying a stair carpet get an

This extra length will enable you to

taken, the edges of the stairs will be

The Boy OH the Farm.

Have you got a boy: Does he get
up early. milk cows, feed team, cat
tie and pigs: Does he take the team
and pillow or drag. or rake. or NOW all
day? What are you doing for him?
DO you give him anything at all except
his board and clothes and a little
schooling in winter! What induce
ment do you offer him to stay with
you and help you on the farm?
Suppose that instead of enforcing
your legal claims to his services until
he is of age. and thus disgusting him
with farm life. and paving the way to-
ward an unloved, neglected old age for
yourself. YOU do the fair thing by this
boy. Give him something for his own.
let him be earning and saving little
money. Don't deny him the oppor-
tunty of an education if he desires
one, for an ignorant man is surely go
ing to be placed at fearful disad-
vantage in the coming years; give
him the best team and the best tools
to work with and encourage him by
kind apprccat ton The reason so many
boys leave the farm disguised is be-
cause they are treated like little slaves
by selfish, avaricious parents. You
can treat boy like horse or an
OK, but the horse or OK will not run
off. and the boys can and will, and we
don't blame them.-IIome Monthly.
