Men and women at sixty years, like
horses of twenty, should run out to
grass
The primary election system is a
kind of King road drag for our political
highways.
City advantages are, as a rule,
bought at an expense of fresh air, free
dom and contentment.
Some men are known by the COM
pany they keep and some by the con
dition of their back yards.
Some idea of the extent to which the
breeding Of thoroughbred poultry is
carried is obtained from the sale of a
White Plymouth Rock cock the other
day for an even $1,000.
A simple yet effective method of
testing the purity of olive oil is said
to be the subjecttng of it to freezing
temperature. If it congeals or freezes
it is evidence that it has been adulter-
ated With lard

in experience to appreciate the fact
that the price of many things he buys
goes up by telegraph and comes down
by wheelbarrow communication or
something slower.
There is many fellow who would
not knowingly tell a lie or steal a cent
from his neighbor who would not hest
tate a moment at loading his hogs up
with buttermilk or soft coal just before
taking them to market
In a general way hired help appreci-
ate the same kind of treatment at the
hands of their employer that the latter
would like were he in their place This
may require the exercise Of a little i'm
agination, but it is we'll worth while.
The mourning doves nest is very
simple and hastily constructed affair.
In building it the two cooperate, the
male bringing most of the material and
his mate putting it in place, the job
often being finished in the course of a
few hours.
Both city and country women would
be benefited could they exchange places
a few weeks out of every year. The
former would get needed outdoor air
and exercise, while the latter would
be benefited by a change from work
that is at times long continued and
somewhat monotonous.
Intelligent management consists just
as much In stopping damage and pre-
venting waste and deterioration of
property as in those activities which
have for their aim the accumulation or
increase Of property or wealth. 1t is
for this reason that the painting of the
farm residence, outbuildings and ma
chinery is both justifable and in the
long run profitable.
When the weeds are small and the
soil mellow there is no tool which is so
effective in destroying them as an or
binary stiff toothed garden rake, while
the amount Of ground that can be COW
cred is nearly double that by the ordi-
nary hoe Under similar conditions
there is no tool which for field culture
surpasses the riding weeder, the points
Of advantage in both tools being iden-
teal.
One who has given the method a
thorough test states that fresh eggs
may be very effectually sealed so as to
keep from late summer to spring by
simply placing them In a wire basket
and submerging in kettle Of boiling
water for ten or fifteen seconds and
then quickly removing. This seems to
cook a very thin layer Of albumen,
which Theoretically seals the egg and
1nSures It's keeping properties.
With a view TO rendering honor to
the cereal corn, which is by virtue Of
it's right and achievements 'lzing''
through all the central western states,
Chicago is planning a big corn festival,
which is to be held some time next
October, when prizes as high as $4,000
will be offered by the various roads
centering in the city for the best sam
pies Of corn grown in territory tribu-
tery to each Of them. 1t is to be the
largest affair of it's kind ever attempt
ed and will doubtless result in giving
a decided impetus to the scientific cul-
ture of thoroughbred corn
A piece Of legislation that bids fair
TO be productive of immense good to
the Agricultural and horticultural infoY-
