&aE STORY !! J .TtllfSS
WESTWARD.

Beyond the murky rim of hills
Where fading city sunsets glow,
Tonight a robin swings and trlllS
In one tall cottonwood l know;
The shadows flung from branch and stem
Along a yellow sand-bar rest
| shut my eyes to dream OF them,
Here in my window, looking west
The shadows lengthen on the sand;
Tile log-built barn across the way
Throws wide its doors on either hama
Beneath the rafters piled with nay;
The pailings of the gray corral
Glmmer and WAIVER in that nSnt
Above the sleepy brown canal
out Wonder on the ranch tonight.
Far off that sunset glory sleeps
On level bench-lands golden brown,
Where browsing slow along the sleeps
one after one the cows come down.
And OF their homeward pilgrimage
Each trampling hoof and horny crest
Shakes perfume from the tufted sage
Oh. far faint incense of the west!
Tonight, l know, beyond the rim
Where all my prairie sunsets fade,
Gods far white mountains look 10 Hin
Clad in His glory, unafraid;
The solemn light on peak and scaur,
The clear still depths of cloudless arr
The trembling silver of a star
What would l give to see them there?
The mountains call me back, to lay
NY weakness on their boundleSS mlSht'
The canyons call me home to pray
In silent stainless shrines tonight;
Yet there in dusty mart and street
1 shut mine ears against their call
Content to find my exile sweet
With love that recompenses ALL

House Your Machines.

Care should be taken of the farm
machinery. Have sheds for all of it.
Many farmers in Lewis county, Mo-,
keep their machinery out year in year
out. The cold, snowy weather of win
ter and the hot, wet weather of sum-
mer are equally bad. You will find,
after having tried it, says the Farm
and Home, that the implements last
better when kept under cover and we'll
painted. Bolts should all be frightened
on a machine when put into use, well
oiled and taken out in ship shape. The
same applies to putting it away when
it should be cleaned as far as practi-
cable and put in the shed. Each year
wagon wheels should be soaked in
boiled linseed oil, applied when hot
This keeps the tires tight and acts as
a preventative.

The Cats Escape.

"The widow" says an observant
bachelor, furnishes the most delight
full occupation to the student of hui
man nature.
Last summer I was spending some
time at well-known seaside resort
and one afternoon handsome young
woman and her little six-year-old son
sat near me on the hotel terrace.
"The little fellow trotted up to me
and l patted him on the head.
What's your name?' he asked.
81 told him.
els you married?' he lisped.
"'No, I'm not l replied.
"Then the child paused for mo-
ment, and, turning to his mother, said:
Mother. what else did you tell me
to ask him?'" -CasselPs Journal.

make water tight. Put in the seed to
be fumigated, cover with blanket and
close fitting cover. Before covering
pour carbon bisulphide, which is explo-
sive. over the grain at the rate of three
to four ounces per bushels of grain. If
IT is not desirable to pour this poison
on the grain, set saucer on it, and
pour the poison in the saucer. Place a
small block near the saucer to hold up
the blanket one % two inches higher,
Law blanket over barrel, and place cover
securely in place and weightwith stone.
This will kill the weevil in peas and

what He CouIdn,t DO.

Two candidates, one of whom was
entirely bald, while the other had a
luxuriant head of hair, were seeking
the favor of the electors in densely-
crowded Lancashire mining district
The gentleman whose head was limo
cent of hair had been cross-questioned
and heckled at meeting almost be-
yond human endurance, and at last
goaded practically to madness, he de,
clared that he could do all that his op-
ponent could do. A collier broke in
in broad Lancashire dialect:
s'Na, tha' canna!"
'And what can I not do?" the can
didate demanded, excitedly.
''Part thee hair L the middle" was
the reply, amid roars of laughter.

BUILD THE CANA

1t is understood in Washington that
the senate will Iass promptly the
emergency appropriation required for
the Panama canal work 1t can de-
Gently do no less.
The public conviction is growing
that the senate Numbered i'll compell-
ing the country to commit itse to
the Panama enterprise But the con
viction ought to be equally clear that
this blunder cannot be helped by back
ing ont or stopping to quarrel over de-
tails.
The only possible way to make good
the Panama blunder is resolutely TO go
ahead with the work there with all
possible speed and at whatever cost
and atone for the follies of the past
by the success of the future.
If the bookkeeping on the canal
work is not all it should be-if here
and there sinecures have been created
on it or too high pay given-if there
has been extravaganza or waste or loot
If congress has been asked to put
too much trust in personal honesty I'M
verified by proper vouchers-these are
details which can be corrected without
pausing in the work on the canal.
The recent wrangling in congress
and the administration over details of
canal work is ridiculous. 1t is boys
play INDUCED by grown men, which
holds the American republic up be-
fore the world as destitute of govern
mental sense.
