the variety at about one-quarter its nat

Boards VS.. Earth as Flooring.

At the West Virginia Experiment
Station a few years ago a test was
made of board floors versus earth floors
for laying hens. The test commenced
Nov. "a, and continued during the win
ter for a full period of five months. 1t
was rather expected that the board
floor would prove superior to earth
floor, but such was not the case. There
were thiry-six hens of three breeds
on each kind of floor, and the hens on
the earth floor laid nearly 80 per cent
more eggs than those on the board
floor. 1t was found that the earth floor
was warmer during cold weather, and
this alone might cause the difference in
results. The only sickness Of any kind
during the test was case Of roup in
each lot.

Opponent,s Tribute to Grant.

Lieutenant General Longstreet, the
famous Confederate leader, few years
ago was the orator at a celebration in
Boston Of the birthday anniversary OF
General Grant. He said in part:
"Of all the Union commanders he
was the great leader, who accurately
surveyed the great field Of war, the
elements of strength and points OF err
ror, and considered the vast means SO
necessary to solve the problem. he re-
allied the Importance of covering the
granaries Of the South, and applied his
early energies and talents to holding
Kentucky and Tennessee, moving swift
ly to the capture of Fort Henry and
Fort Donelson.
1.-The soldier had the comprehensive
mind of the statesman. He knew that
the South had neglected factories and
only applied it's energies and labor to
improve agriculture; and bent his mind
and power to the same blockade of our
seaboard cities

Infantry with him on his entrance into
active army life, and we were together
in Worth's division of SCOTS army in
Mexico. where he was known and es-
| teemed as one of it's most gallant and
promising young lieutenants. He was
on the staff of General Garland, my
father-in-law. Our first meeting In
combat during the internecine war was
in the Wilderness May 6, 1864, where l
received his mark that must go with
me to the resurrection morn, but our
personal feelings and relations were
never changed. The first notice we had
of him in the late war was his affair
at Belmont in the autumn of 1861,
when l remarked of him that he was
the man of the North, who, if he came
to be known, was most likely to con-
quer, and to-day, l may say, that no
one but the subtle Lincoln could have
found him.
of he could have been In Chicago in
May of last year and witnessed the I'M
yelling of a monument over the dead
Confederate prisoners of war and could
have been with us at the dedication Of
the national park at Chickamauga in
September last to witness the assem-
bling Of the blue and the gray in cor
dial. fraternal greetings, he could have
known that his prophecy Of peace was
not delusive hope, but happy frui-
ton, mirrored In the expressions OF all
his countrymen. God grant the peace
prayed for in his generous heart may
spread her gentle wings to rest lightly
upon his happily united countrymen,
and may their devout supplications as
cend like incense for peace for the
faithful soul departed! Alleluia!'

A Point in Grating.

The effect Of the stock upon the scion
is shown in a report recently sent out
by the French Academy of Sciences.
Two pear trees of the same variety,
standing side by side, one grated on
a pear Seeding and the other on a
ounce, bore fruit for a number Of
years. That from the pear stock was
green, while that from the ounce stock
was a golden yellow, with a rose blush
on the side toward the sun. The latter
also weighed a third more per speci-
men, was more dense in both fruit and
Juice, and was richer in both acid and
sugar.

stomach Worm. I'm sheep.


The symptoms of infestation by stom-
ach worms in sheep are briefly noted
in a government bulletin. In prevent
ing the infestation of lambs with stom-
ach worms two general plans are usual
ly applicable. The ewes may be kept
in bare lot from which the lambs may
escape to non-infested pasture for graz
ing. The danger of infestation Is thus
reduced to minimum. Again, wher-
ever practicable, the danger Of infesta-
ton from stomach worms is largely
eliminated If the lambs come in the fall
rather than In the spring.
Brief notes are given on the direct
remedies for stomach worms, including
coal-tar, creosote, bluestone and gaso-
line.

OUR NEIGHBORS.
By Rev. q. T. Swengel,

By Rev. q. z. Swengel.
"TeXt-"Love thy neighbor as thy
self Luke X: q. Leviticus xix: 10.
Next door neighbors These live in
our own state or nation. They are to
be reached by home missionary work.
They are the people from whose door
yards seeds of thistles and thorns
blow into our own yards. Even from
q selfish standpoint it pays to help
them to weed out the evil and to sup
plant it with good seed.
Ideal neighbors. God told Jeremiah
how to picture beautiful, ideal neigh
borhood. See Jer. 81: "a. Who would
not like to live amid such surround
ings? 1t will come when all shall
know the Lord.
Love of neighbors. Read I. Cor.
10, to learn what love Is and what it
will do. Is it not doing evil when we
allow our neighbors to live in dark
ness while we are able to give them
light? do unto others as you would
have them do unto you"
What shall we do for our neigh
bors2
l. Hold rousing missionary meet
ings for information and enthusiasm.
2. Hold up the light Of the Gospel
in our own lives.
3. Pray earnestly for their evan
gelization.
4. Give freely for the support Of
missionaries and the development of
mission fields.
5. Defraud not thy neighbor. Lev
10: 10. There are other ways Of de-
frauding besides the matter or wages.
Keeping from God what belongs to
Him Is robbery, according to His own
Word. Keeping from our neighbor
the Gospel when we can send 1t to
him seems much along the same line.

A. o. Gross and Fl. A. Ray walked
across Illinois last fall from the Indi-
ana line to the Mississippi River, TAX
ing a bird census as they went. In q
strip of country $50 feet wide and 1872
miles long they found 4,SOO birds Of SO
different kinds. '"Two-thirds Of the
birds counted were English sparrows,
and about one-sixth Of the remainder
crow blackbirds The next most abund-
ant species were meadow larks, cow
birds, crows, horned larks and mourn
ing doves ranging in the order named
from about 10 per cent to 6 per cent
Of the whole number of native birds
seen."-Hartford Courant.

TfnlOfhy Hay.

Prof. Patterson of the Maryland Ag-
ricultural Station, who made tests to
determine the digestbility of foods, Is
authority for the claim that timothy
hay is less digestible by horses than
by cattle. This will, no doubt, be
surprise to many, as it has heretofore
been supposed that as food for horses
timothy hay was more suitable than
any other. Timothy hay is seldom used
for cattle, clover being fed to them in
preference.

Wherever alfalfa can be raised, the

obeyed Though 1t calls for fight OF
hope against itself, it Is not contra
diction nor a .paradox, but carried to
Its ultimate consequences it means tri-
umph.
IL Is universal In it's application,
bars no man from its sway and elimi-
mates no combination Of circumstances.
1t enJoins upon one absolute refusal to
surrender save to the inevitable doom
Of rs all.
Moreover, it finds a response in
mans heart. Never say die is cry
as Old as the race. All the mythologies
reflect It, Christianity consecrates it.
The old world felt Its truth; to the new
1t was given to understand It On sea
and land, on every battlefield since the
dawn Of history has it been heard. Said
sea captain: "As long as there is
one square foot Of dry deck stick to the
pumps"
The soldier as we'll as the general
has exclaimed that "the old guard
never surrenders" Yet, how many, un-
thinking or in cowardice, have lowered
the flag They were not men who
squared their conduct according to tho
Christian spirit. God, while closing tho
portals of Eden upon our despairins
progenitors, lit the torch of hope and
gave it to them as an inheritance to be
kept alive and transmitted to their pos
terity. The Redeemer intensified it's
light and broadened It's flame so that
to lose hope now Is to sin against Di-
vine Providence.
There has never been a mandate to
despair. No matter what the environ
ment, how dark the outlook, over and
above all is the inspiration of hope.
What mans voice prevails against the
utterance of faith? When a man says
theer is no hope, where is his guaran-
tee?
The physician says: 1.-THE man will
die with the dawn" The man lives
yet. A man is in the clutches of adver-
sity he has lost his all. Lo! on the
fragments of his fortune he builds a
colossal independence.
The criminal staggers from depth to
depth; he is fighting with the swine for
their husks. Lo! he is on the road to
his home, in his fathers arms, the ring
is on his finger and the princely man
tie OH his shoulders.
History has not chronicled every
hopeful deed. Ships a-many, despaired
Of, have come to port; from many last
bitches" have been unfurled flags Of
victory. The last chance" Is a mean
ingleSs word. What man has the right
to predict or determine it? No chance
is the last one while a man lives In
Vulnerable and unseen doors are wait
ing the open sesame Of Providence
to come afar and reveal vistas un-
dreamed, restoration, relief, redemp-
ton. Last chances have often blossom
ed into multitudinous opportunities.
The hope Paul speaks of is not SUI
pine, but active. 1t puts heart In a
man as nothing else does. 1t is the
mother of resurrection. God, the author
and finisher of hope, be praised! For
from Him comes the confidence which
says: There is way out; If l cannot
find it l will make it."
This hope, heaven descended, approx
ed by reason and sanctioned by expert
ence. cannot be baffied. To hope against
hope is the basis Of character The tru-
est test of a man is to hope against
hope and to pluck success out Of the
very heart of failure.
