lhe the PnuItrx Yard.

If It is necessary to confine the poul-
try during the summer and the inclosure
cannot be. placed near the shade of
buildings or trees, try the plan Of grow
ing some plants just outside the fence,
but far enough from it so that the
fowls cannot get at the foliage. One
of the best plants for the purpose is
the Gamma, using the rneap, tall-growing
sorts, and buying the roots, not the
seeds. Another quick growing plant anu
one which will make an abundance Of
shade is the castor bean, which may be
grown from seeds planted where they
are to stay that is, the young plants
cannot we'll be transferred. Even corn
set thlckly will furnish some shade
quickly, and If a vine is wanted, moth
ing is better than the common morning
glory, the seeds being sown thick and
the vines trained along strings fastened
to the poultry yard fence. While the
vines or plants are growing erect a
rough roof of boards open on all sides
to supply temporary shade.

Nowadays the making of bombs Is
a simple matter. Anyone who has the
slightest mechanical skill can make an
ordinary hand grenade bomb, provided
he has the shell. In this shell are plac-
ed, beside the explosive, old nails, links
Of chains, jagged pieces of metal, or
dinary bullets and detOnator cap.
When thrown against hard substance
the shell explodes with sufficient vio-
lence to blow down house. Many of
the bombs turned out by anarchists are
OF crude make. Others are quite elab-
crate, for there are many skilled chem

Hauling Hay.

1t is a very desirable thing to be able
to haul all the hay into the barn the
same day 1t is cut. The worriment and
anxiety consequent upon the liability of
a storm before morning are thus avoid
ed, and experience has taught that hay
having no more than three or four
hours sun will come out in the spring
perfectly sweet and IN fine condition
for the cattle. In adopting this plan it
Is we'll to keep the hay constantly
stirred with tedder. There has been
a fear Of putting hay into some barns
that contain a noticeable amount of
water, but If it is properly packed by
being evenly distributed over the NOW,
each forkful trodden upon, and the
barn kept closed as much as possible,
the result will probably be gratifying

A Pointed Question.

Two cows cost $40 each per year for
keep. One of them yields you 1000
quarts Of milk a year, that bring you
$S6. The other yields 120 quarts, that
bring you S26. The latter loses for you
about $14 and reduces the gain on the
former from SAG to $32. Why do you
keep the 1,2O0-quart COW? You would
he better off with the one that clears
SIG, for you would have only half the
investment half the work, and half
the feeding, and you would gain $14
each year. There would be no surplus
butter on the market for years to come
and prices would rule strong If the
cows were eliminated which are kept
at loss. Dairy farmers have not yet
half walked up to an understanding Of
the great practical Importance Of weed
ing out the Improbable cows from
their herds. Many man would make
fair profit, that now faces a constant
loss, if he would keep only such cows
as pay a profit on their keep.-Farm

That now is all believing,
Dear little face that some day must
Find life filed with deceiving,
Dear little face that draws to mine
Nor dreams of dreaded danger,
Would | could keep you to the end
To disappointment stranger!
Dear little face that asks to know
The mystery of living,
Dear little face that years will show
That life was made for giving,
Dear little face where lines will grow
And deepen with life's sadness,
Would / could keep you from the low
Replacing grief with gadness!
Dear little face, how can you meet
A world, strong men defying?
Dear little one, why must you hear
The sorrowing and crying?
Dear little face-I dare not dream
But, praying here above you,
draw you closer in my arms
God knows how well | love you!

New Varieties of Potatoes.

Many varieties of potatoes come and
60, and, but for the Introduction of new
varieties, potatoes would soon be scarce.
This is due to the careless selection
Of seed. All the tubers Of crop are
scli for seed, when only the best
should be selected. If only the largest
tubers from the thriftiest and strong
est plants were retained for seed, there
would be an improvement in the old
varieties instead Of deterioration In
quality. But as long as seed potatoes
bring good prices, there will be both
good and inferior seed used.

The barn should never be built near
the house, and wherever it is, it should
be kept as sanitary as the house itself.
A country barnyard should be as neat
and tidy as the dooryard. There Is no
reason why vines should not grow over
the walls and fences, and trees shade
the inclosed animals. 1t Is possible to
have lilacs and mock oranges growing
around the barn, as freely as about
the shrubbery. The animals are not
any less happy, and one can pick great
punches for oneself and friends.
