THE FARMERS s BOY.

You ask about that boy of mine,
An what his inclination is?
Why, stranger, can't you read The sign
That's writ acrost that youngsters
phiz?
He's such a master hand to shirk
That sometimes l can most admire
hml
An lazy.-if you gave him work
He'd help you make chance to fire
him.
His mother says he's quick to learn
That when he's foolin' out O. doors
He's maxim poetry to burn
But watch him fool at doin' chores!
His inclination is to be
something that they call a poet.
Such foolishness don't come from me
/ amt that kind, not if l know it.
You see that critter on the wall
There In the frame? Well, that's
cow
His mother says he's got call
To be a artist; but somehow
'Tisn't such gift for him to draw;
There's nothin' in it to surprise us.
But what that boy is useful for
Is what I'd like you to advise US.
When was young it wasn't so;
Boys had different trainin' then
They knew they had to hoe their row
An work their way like little men.
There weren't no fine contraptions known
In them old days for saving labor;
And he who'd finished for his own
Would go and help friend or neigh
Dor.
You think I'm hard on him? Why,
His mother says he'll turn out grand!
He's just the apple Of her eye.
But, stranger, when l take a hand
Hush! Here she comes. Is that you,
ma?
just was talkin' bout our Neddy
So smart, I'm proud to be the pa
Of such a son-eh? dinner ready2

CaDacity of WelIs.

A ready rule for arriving approx
mately at the number of gallons per
foot Of water: From the square Of
the bottom diameter of the well, in
inches, cut off one figure and divide
by three. Thus: If the we'll is sixty
inches in diameter, 60x60 equals 1900;
cut off one figure it leaves $50. This,
divided by three gives 100, which is
the number of gallons for each foot Of
depth. If, therefore, the depth of wa
ter were found to be ten feet, the
available supply in the well would be
1,200 gallons. AS the bottom diane
ter Of well Is sometimes less than
the top diameter, care must be taken,
in ascertaining the volume, as above,
to adopt, for the purpose Of calcula-
toin, the diameter Of the part where
the water Is: A lighted candle lower
ed down the we'll will serve to show
any breaks of diameter above water

SCHOOLHOUSE IN PORTO RICO.

The structure herewith illustrated is
one of the old-fashioned schoolhouses
formerly erected in Porto Rico. AL
though the educational commission is
building many schools Of the modern
American pattern number Of houses
of the old type still remain. The roof
is of tile SO loosely jointed that dur
ing one of the sudden downpours 80
frequent in the tropics the floor has to
be covered with vessels to catch the
flood. The windows are without glass,
but are protected by wooden shutters.
These must be closed during a shower,
and darkness prevails within. The
American schoolteacher meets the diff
ficulty by calling upon the children to
sing.

When the Cow Choice

A neighbor turned his cows into his
orchard with fallen apples. One cow
became badly choked with an apple.
We took piece of rubber hose three
feet long, rather stiff; we creased this
with lard, held the cows head up
and showed the hose down her throat,
pushing the apple down In the stom-'
ach. A piece Of rubber about III
inches in diameter is the proper size.
Cow all right. Another plan I have
tried with good success. Soon as the
cow is choked lose no time in getting
her into the stanchion, draw the head
up with a rope and fasten. Melt one
pint lard, put in long-necked bottle;
while warm pour down throat. She
will struggle to throw lard cut; the
throat being well creased will cause
the apple or potato to slip out easily.

Feeding Hens.

Hens like variety of food, and
they should be given as much in that
line as possible. On the off mornings
give a feed of equal parts corn and
oatmeal, wet with milk, or boiled tur-
nips or potatoes mixed with little
wheat bran. All scraps from the table
and refuse from the kitchen should
be mixed with the morning feed. A
daily allowance of small quantity of
meat, ground bone and oyster shells
should not be overlooked.

Good, Sim pie Hay Stacker,

Uoou, simple hay STACKER.
An Iowa farmer writes that in his
part of the country, where a large
amount Of hay is raised, but few farm
ers have barn room enough to
hold it. SO are compelled to stack it.
In stacking hay out Of doors some
loss is unavoidable, but an effort
should be made to reduce this loss to
the minimum. One of the greatest
mistakes is making the stack too
small. The smaller the stack is, the
larger the proportion of hay is spoil
ed by being on the top, bottom or
sides. In making a large stack, a
stacker of some kind is a necessity,
and the one illustrated here seems to
be best all-around device for the ppr-
pose. The device stands straddle of
the stack and is held in place by brace
ropes. The hay rope runs through q

But why she stammered.
"You have told me-that is, you have

"Yes, they are"

The BARNARD.

There is nothing so repulsive as a
wet and filthy barnyard, in which the
animals are compelled to walk knee
deep in filth. Such a condition Is not
necessary, and can be prevented II
the barnyard is kept well supplied
with absorbent material. Throwing
whole cornstalks into the barnyard is
the old method, but cornstalks do not
absorb until they are trampled to
pieces, and in the meantime much of
the liquids are carried off by the
rains. 1t will pay to shred the corn
stalks or cut the straw for bedding,
while leaves and dry earth may also
be used in the barnyard with advant-
age.

Cows for the Dairy.

Before the dairyman can be success
full in either branch he must draw the
line between the breeds that excel In
yield Of milk and those that give milk
rich in cream. The first thing the
scientific dairyman does is to select
the breed for the purpose he may have
in view. The next will be to feed in
such a manner as to secure the larg-
est yield Of either milk or butter in
proportion to the cost of food, and the
cost of the food depends upon its
adaptability for conversion into the
ingredients entering into the compo-
sition Of milk.

The belle of the ball just now (hor-

tomato! This lovely fruit-vegetable
is of a glowing deep watermelon-red
color. 1t is exhibited by a fruiter in
the shape of one fine cluster. On this
cluster are eight fine examples, all
clustered thickly together and beauti-
fed by means Of laurel leaves. One
Of the clusters Is yet a deep red.
They are said to be Of an exquisite

One Man Crosscut Saw.

Most crosscut saws are made with
two handles and are intended to be
used by two men,. but it is frequently
desirable on the farm to have the saw
available for use by single man.
Logs to be sawed may be too large
for the bucksaw, and a sharp one
man crosscut will saw almost II not
fully as fast as bucksaw and with
out the back breaking effect. In any
event, whether a saw is to be used by
one or two men, it is an advantage,
says an Ohio Farmer writer, to have
one end of 1t furnished with a two
handed handle. Some small crosscuts
are made with such handle at one
end Zig y, but, If not, the ordinary
handle can be removed from any

In summer the full milk cans should
