Value Of the crasses-The grasses
stand first among plants in their agri.
cultural Importance. This is particu-
larly true Of the agriculture Of civil
lized countries. In barbarous lands the
grasses are not made SO much Of, as
the people live largely by hunting and
fishing. The great value of grass is
realized by the modern agriculturist.
The grass in the fields and pastures is
not the only grass there is. Indian
corn is a variety of grass and some of
the other cultivated crops are varie-
ties OF grasses. 1t must be re-
membered, also, that wheat is a grass
and that this Is great source Of
human food. The grass family also in
cludes oats, rye, barley, sorghum and
millet. The numbers of varieties Of
grasses that have been described by
the botanists is about 1000, and there
are other varieties that have not yet
been described.

THE WATER QUESTION

ItIs probably unnecessary but 1t can do DO harm to suggest that the city council should investigate with the ut most cara before it acts In this water works matter. The cisY cannot afford to shoulder 8 debt of s.5,OOO snd an O6- igagIon to perfect 8 water supply st further expense carelessly. The de- tails ot the proposition should be work ed out with palustaking and 'then there should be tho fullest and widest publici' ty concerning the whole matter before the city o6ligatss the taxpayers.
 So far as concerns the general ProDo- sltgou certainly tbsre will be no one to dlBputs the necessity of the city's ha7, ing an absolutely uniaiutng water sqp- ply. nor Is any one likely to question the contention that the municipal water system should be free from any ensaag- ling alliances, if practicable.

SPECIALIZING IN STOCK.
Farmers Should Follow Lines In Which
They viii Have Best Success.

This is fast becoming an age of spe-
cializing. The farm Of Il few years ago
was supposed to produce about all
that was consumed. A great many
things were made then. too, that are
bought now. The change has been
coming on gradually. but now the dis
position Is general to let the man who
is better fitted for doing or producing
one thing follow his line, while we
may follow another line, and the ex.
change is made through the regular
channels of trade.
The stockmen are taking up spe'
cializing to a wonderful extent. A very
few years ago the stockman had a
few of all classes OF stock. and each
class represented some OF all ages.
To-day, we find more and more of the
special herds, The cattleman sticks
to a certain line, and IL he raises for
the market he likes to have the bunch
all of an age and size. 1t Is the same
with every other line of livestock.
After all that has been said of having
a few of all kinds, then you will be
sure Of hacing some of the right kind,
for stock does better to run all Of an
age and size, aud is easier cared for.

they make themselves solid with their
little boy, by saying they are going out

they had to sit up with the sick man.
Tuesday night they went out to visit
a neighbor, and explained that they
were going to give some medicine to
the man that was sick. On Wednes-

entertainment, and apologlzed to the

a plaster on the sick mans back, to
draw out the pain.
