as the mass of vegetation was so heavy
that the corn and beans tumbled in

Poor Peter has never been much of
a favoritc with the preachers; he was
SO thoroughly unstable, unideal. But
the people have always had a tender
feeling for him, partly because he was
q fisherman, partly because he was so
much like the rest OF us. Nothing Is
more striking In the life of Jesus than
his affection for ordinary men. The
cultured Pharisees, the philosophical
Sadducees seem to have much less at

man and the toiler. These men were

Brother Against Brother.

A man named &c lived in Missouri,
about fifty miles from the Kansas Dor
der. His family, originally from the
Missouri When the war broke out his
two brothers avowed diSloyalty to the
government, joined the secession army,
and they urged him to do 50 too. But
he was true to his allegiance to the
Union and its starry ensign. Hesitating,
and with the ties Of kindred to distract
him, he remained q passive witness of
events until all the man that was in
him at length induced him to take his
place in the great struggle. A few days
after younger brother rode up to his
house At the time he was out of his
wagon, and had been practicing with
his rife at a mark, and had just load
ed. The younger brother said, I'm
glad you're thinking about your gun.

cried the younger brother-and draw

got something for you,' and fired. The
ball lodged in the breast Of the elder
brother, who staggered and fell with
the violence or suddenness of the
shock. Recovering himself, however,
for moment, with superhuman energy,
he got upon his knees, and Selling his
rife, pointed it at his murderous broth
er, who turned and fed, but the rife
ball in his spine arrested the course of
the Rebel forever. The family of the
Union man gathered a few of their eff
fects hurriedly, and fled with him in a
wagon-at last reaching Kansas, where,
though severely wounded, he slowly re-
covered.

Care of Animals,


AS man has adapted different ami
mails to different uses it does not infer
that they are not subject to natural
laws On the contrary, the subsection
is more complete than before, and, as
man has been the foster agent in
changing the characteristics of most do
mestic animals, so must the hand of
man be ever ready to render that as
slstance so essential to their we'll
being. The pasture, shelter and care
must be suitable for the accomplish
ment of the purpose desired. and no
neglect can be allowed Not only must
the utmost care be taken in selecting
the animals that suit the farm best,
but the farm itself must also conform
to the animals. One should not attempt
to Improve unless prepared for 1t, as
failure will be the result, but the prep
aration Is easily made Better stock
means better farming, larger crops and
greener pastures. With each year the
crops become better, because the system
forces them to be so. But those farm
ers who do not possess facilities for
certain breeds of animals need not be
discouraged, as all can have privil-
ege with some kinds that do not come
up to the requirements needed. I'm
provement should be the object with
every farmer, for even should the farm
er lag behind the time will arrive
when he will be compelled to camp on
the same ground that others long be-
fore occupied, but who have left 1t for
something better. Keep pace with the
time, and keep the flock to the best.
