Orchard Lands Of Long Ago.
The orchard lands Of long ago.
Oh, drowsy winds, awake and blow
The snowy blossoms back to me,
And all the buds that used to bel
Blow back again the grassy ways.
oh, truant feet, and lift the haze
OF happy summer from the trees
That trail their tresses In the seas
OF grain that float and overflow
The orchard lands Of long agol
Blow back the melody that Slips
In lazy laughter from the lips
That marvel must that any kiss
Is sweeter than the apple Is.
Blow back the twitter Of the birds,
The lisp the thrills ai& all the words
OF merriment that found the shine
OF summer time a glorious wine,
That drenched the leaves that loved 1t so
In orchard lands Of long ago!
Oh, memoryl Alight and sing
Where rosy-bellied pippins cling,
And golden russets CLINT and CLEAN
As in the old Arabian dream
The fruits OF that enchanted tree
The glad Aladdin robbed for mel
And drcwsy winds, awake and fan
My blood as when 1t overran
A heart ripe as the apples grow,
In orchard lands of long agoi

There is very strcng demand for
choice stock in both table poultry and
eggs. A little preparation, on the
part Of the farmer, would add thou

good poultry that it must and will be

This is the month when the tent
caterpillar does his work. He comes
just when other work is crowding,
but we cannot afford to let him go on
his way unhindered. Every tent must
be destroyed or next year there will
be greater brood than ever. Some
wind the nests out with a pole armed
with nail. Others burn 1t out with
a torch. Still others cut OFF the small
limbs upon which the nest has been
made and smash the worms under
their feet. Whatever way you adopt,
be thorough.

Fast Travel in Prospect.

George H. Daniels told a gatherinA
of railway and steamship men in New
York the other evening that before
many more years shall have passed
trains between Chicago and the east
ern metropolis will leave the terminals
every two hours and travel 100 miles
an hour. He added reflectively that
under such circumstances the train
dispatcher will be more important
person than now even.

THIN THE APPLE ORCHARD.

Recent investigations by the Horti-
cultural Department Of the Cornell
Experiment Station revea; the fact
that. in many of the older apple-grow-
ing sections of the State, the most
serious enemy of the orchard is the
tree itself. There are far too many on
each acre of ground. They are now
competing for food, for light and for
space. Statistics show that the yield
decreases as the number OF bearing
trees per acre Increases.

Where is ghe man who remembers
the early day haymaking when all the
outlying prairies composed the hay
meadow? When the time for making
hay was in the month of September
the strong wind days. These winds
are commented on by Sam, who says
he placed his straw hat up against
the barn and the wind held it there
for three days as II 1t were hanging
on a nail No boy could build a load
of hay theil. and no man could make
stacks worth looking at. We worked
at night when the wind was less Sc
we're and slept during the day. We
had natures tools largely in making
hay then. A mower and rake con-
stituted the improved machinery.

Those great schemes for co-opera.
tion among farmers are still being
pushed. As a rule they are advocated
by men who have little standing at
home. and who could not combine
with their own neighbors. Their prop
osition is too large. 1t is like start
ing to build a great house without
making sure that all the little joints
are tight. We have little hope for
those great combinations until farm
ers first learn how to combine with
neighbors and friends. The Grange,
OF the local farmers club, may grow
into the larger society, but the big one
win not build up the smaller one
Education grows up--not down.

A successful poultry keeper once
received a letter from a man who
thought he would like to learn how to
run farm. This man wrote; II
could do the light work and the heavy
thinking for you" The answer that
went back by the next mail was:
There is no light work on this farm,
and / am capable of doing the heavy
thinking myself" The suggestion
from this man will illustrate the way
some people regard farming. They
have an idea that a farmer needs
some one to think for him. and that
this thinking" can be done by an out
slider who never did farm work. How
absurd such thing would be in con-
nection with any other branch Of busi-
ness-and good farming requires more
planning and hard thinking than any
other trade. AS for this hunt for
light work" why cannot people see
that only the hardest and most pains
taking toll fits man to really think
hard?

Better stock and more of it is what
you hear most about when you visit
the South. People in that section are
eiwaking to the necessity existing for
better grade of stock. Breeders
throughout the country should investi-

line Of finding market for a good

WASHINGTON, Feb. e-Embassa-

that its site was covered with build

Not long ago Porter came into pos

which warranted at least the hope that
the remains had not been removed
when the buildings were erected, and
that the body reposes beneath the

GREAT TRACT
FOR SHEEPMEN
Two Million Acres of Land
in Wyoming Leased for
the Big Flocl1s From Utah
Special Dispatch to The Can.


OMAHA, Feb. 9.-As an outcome of
the fight to keep Utah and Idaho sheep
men out of Wyoming, deal has just
been closed in this city by which 2,000,-
600 acres of land in Western Wyoming
will pass into the hands of Utah sheep
raisers.. The deal is in the form of a
lease from the Union Pacific to the
Uintah Grazing Association, which
owns large focks of sheep in Wyoming
and Utah. John c. Mackay, County
Commissioner, and e. II. Callister, rev.
enue collector at Salt Lake, signed the
lease on behalf of the association.
The Lease is one of the largest drawn
up for some time. 1t Involves alternate
sections Of government lands The
tract lies in what is known as the Red
Desert between Leroy and the Green
River, the grazing lands being among
the best that the West affords. 1t will
furnish winter grazing for 100000 head
of sheep owned by several parties, each
of whom possesses a summer and fall
range of his own. Under the laws of
Wyoming the tract can be kept free
from transient grazers without being
fenced.
1t will also save the members of the
association from overcrowding, as
they can regulate the number of sheep
that the range will accommodate.

ESSEN, Feb. "A convention of
delegates representing the strikers of
the entire Rhenish- Westphalian coal
region adopted resolution to-day to
return to work at noon tomorrow. The
resolution, which was proposed by the
executive committee of seventy, was
adopted with only five negative votes
after five hours debate.
Mass meetings of miners held here
and in this vicinity this afternoon vot-
ed by a large majority to disregard the
orders of the strike committees to dis
continue the strike. The meetings were
tumultuous in character The opera
tives sharply denounced the committee
of seventy as traitors to the cause of
labor and as having been bribed by
trust money.
Similar meetings are reported at other
places and it was decided by immense
najorities to stay out.

um unanimously resolved to resume

COMBES' POLICY
STILL IN FORCE
New Ministry Of France
Presents a Bill Separat-
ING Church and State
RIGOROUS IN IT'S TERMS
Government to Neither Rec
ognize Nor Contribute to
Religious Denominations

PARIS, Feb. 9.-The Rouvier Minis
try to-day presented in the Chamber of
Deputies the draft Of new bill for the
separation of state and church. The
measure has been anxiously awaited,
owing to doubt raised by friends of
former Premier Combes concerning the
sincerity of the new Ministry in carry
ing forward the policy of separation.
When, therefore, Minister of Public In
struction Bienvenu Martin presented
the bill in the CHAMBER of Deputies it
was greeted with long applause
The text Of the new measure makes
the separation Of church. and state
definite and conclusive, but omits
number of details of the Combes bill
which had aroused antagonism. The
essential points Of the new measure are:
F'irst--Abolition of the concordat,
whereby the relations of the church
and state were established.
Second-Termination of all Govern
ment aid and subsidies to religious
sects or functionaries.
Third ormation of church associa-
tions into civil corporations, amenable
to the same laws as other organiza-
tions.
The bill comprises twenty-three arti-
cles and the text of article / follows:
The state hencelOrtn neither recognizes nor
contributes 10 any religious denomination.
Public establishments of religion now existing
suppressed. All religious budgets ap-
proI.riatons oi government departments or
cornmunes are suppressed. The exercise of
religion is hereafter free. under the sole re-
striction that such exercise must accord with
public order.
The article abolishing the concordat
says:
All laws and orders relative to the public
organization recognition of religious de-
nomination are abrogated, particularly the
law ratifying the convention made between the
Pope and the French Government
1t is expected that the new bill! will
be adopted in the Chamber of Deputies
after the income tax and other meas
ures upon which Premier .Rouvier de-
mands early action have been adopted
However, there is a strong pressure by
the Combes element for speedy hear
ing and this may lead TO a determina-
ton to take up and debate the bill
without awaiting action on other meas
ures. It is expected that the bill will
be discussed and voted upon before the
end of July.

Attorney Hopes to Show That EN-
