Before another issue of the Sheaf
re4ches its readers the year 1906 will
have been ushered in. While the old
year, has doubtless brought to many
Of US some. appointments, vet it
has also brought many blessings, and
when the balance is struck we will
find that the year compares favorably
with most years of our human ex-
istence. What the new year holds in
it's bosom for each one Of us, no one
can tell. Doubtless it will bring sor-
row and disapp pointment to some of
u.s., Some Of our calculations may
miscarry. Death which is no re-
spector of persons will invade some
home and remove. therefrom some
loved one. Yet, after all, it is we'll
to remember, that we, ourselves, are
largely to blame for our. own /misfOr-
tunes. May the year 1906 bring to
every reader of the Sheaf full mea-
sure of success and prosperity, and
may it be the happiest year of your
existence.

mistaken. It is a pity such homes are
so rare, when they might be SO easily
built up on our FARMS That there are
not more Is because men either do not
know how to do it or because they are
too greedy and avaricious, ever lusting
for more acres, or because some have
no taste for nice things, and some like
liquor too well. Anyhow, the crying
need of the country Is for more homes
Of this type, and having them the boys

patriotic act as well as contributing to

THE COUNTRY HOME.

We recently passed small farm

model place. The farm home was a
story and half house neatly painted.

home yard was fenced to keep out the
pigs and chickens; there was clean,
well arranged small fruit and vegetable
garden; the poultry was Of the White
Rock Sort, we should Judge; anyhow,
the birds were all Of one uniform color

All the horrors of the. French re-
volution are now being enacted on
even larger scale in Russia these
days. Daily clashes at arms between
troops and the people occur in the
large cities, strikes are the order Of
the day, and the government is
wholly unable to uphold it's authority
and maintain peace and order.

have some regard to the matter Of lati-
tude In his selection. The American
elm is justly rated as one of the best
Of trees for city conditions, though we
find it will not endure the effect of coal
smoke as we'll as the hard maple, the
basswood or linden or the sycamore.
It one has a clay. soil the hard maple
Is the best Of all shade trees, whether
IN town or country, for there is SYM
metry Of habit, richness and profuse-
ness Of foliage, which no other tree de-
velops. Besides, it's autumnal splendor
of coloring eclipses that Of any other
tree. The catalpa looks well little
while, leaves out late in the spring and
drops it's leaves first of any tree in the
fall. The common black cherry makes
an admirable tree for a city lawn,
while If one can secure bur oak he
has a tree which is proof against all
the adverse conditions Of city life. a
Colorado blue spruce will be found a
very attractive and beautiful tree II an
evergreen is desired. We think that we
would suggest that elms be selected
for setting in the. street in front and
some Of the other trees named for the
inside grounds. In our own case we
some years ago adopted the plan Of
using largely fruit trees for lawn and
home lot planting, with the result that
we now have plenty Of shade and fruit
also.
About the only butchering there is
now done on the farms Is the behead-
ing and dressing Of the roosters when
the presiding elder comes or there Is a
quarterly meeting in town or a chicken
pie social on deck to raise the parsons
salary. All meat products now leave
the farm alive even to the poultry, and,
while this new method has relieved the
home folks of good deal Of work,
there is in way distinct loss, for the
truth is it is simply impossible to Sc
cure the fine smoked and salted meats
which in the old days used to be cured
on the farm. The biggest fool trick to
be seen on the farm today is the selling
Of meat on the hoof and the buying
back Of hams, bacon and porterhouse
steak.
