R N MORALITY.

The champion woman whist player
of the United States has renowned
cards publicly and in every form, be-
cause she thinks card playing in SIN
full. Naturally her action has caused
a good deal of comment and contro-
vcrsy as to the ethical value or lack
of value in cards.
Like any other diversion, cards may
be made as sinful as the player pleas
es. If he plays poker and bluffs much,
or if he plays hearts at a quarter a
point, he must needs be exceedingly
expert not to reach the conclusion
that it is a sinful waste of money.
For that matter one can use type in a
game printoers call "jefing" and at
tain the same undesirable result; OF
what church people call "lotto,' but
which is really straight keno, can be
as demoralizing as faro or roulette.
But to return to cards: The chle1
objection to games of cards, from q
layman's standpoint, is the profltless
ness of them. AS a sort of menta
anesthetic, a means of getting the rea
things of life, a card game is service
able to a certain extent. 1t involves
some skill, a peculiar kind of memoniC
ability, but when one has played fol
hours the net profit seems hopelessly
small in proportion to the effort ex
pended.
whist parties and five hundred gather
ings and we don't think that any OF
them are any the worse for it. The
ladies of Carson have been good card
PLAYERS ever since the memory of man
alb deth, and if the game ever inter.

have never heard Of it.
The new S~agebrush cub has a caro-
room, but the rules and regulation
prevent gambling in any form, nn.

over a game Of cards with some mem

GONE FOREVER.

Ten years ago a farmer put his mi
tials on a dollar bill. The next day he
went to the nearest town and spent 1T
with merchant. Before the year was
out he got the dollar back. Four times
in six years the dollar came back to
him for produce and three times he
heard of it in the pocket of his neigh
bors.
The last time he got it back four
years ago. He sent it to a mail order
house. He never has seen that dollar
since, and never will. That dollar bill
will never pay any more school or
road tax for him, will never build or
brighten any of the homes of the COM
munity. He sent it entirely out of
the circle of usefulness to himself and
his neighbors.
Patronize your local merchant who
helps you to pay your taxes, support
your schools and churches, and lends
a helping hand in times of sickness
and trouble.

SOWING GRASS SEED.
Timely Suggestions by Prof. w. J.
SpilIman, US. Department AgricuI-
ture.

The Importance of good seed can
hardly be overestimated. A good
many failures in seeding down the
grasses result from insufficient prep
aration of the land, but many failures
result also from the use of seed which
has lost much, or all, of its vitality.
Other things being equal, rich land
requires more seed than poor land,
and wet land more than dry. A we'll
prepared seeded requires less than
one poorly prepared, because a larger
proportion of the seed finds chance
to terminate. A single pound of tim
othy seed to the acre, if every seed
produced thrifty plant, would give
II plants on every square foot OF
land. Since II to Is pounds Of tim
othy are usually required to secure
a good stand, it is evident that only
small proportion of the seed sown
on even the best prepared land pro-
duces plants.
On rough, cloddy land the proper
ton is much smaller. No absolute
rules can be laid down for deter.
mining the amount of seed to SOW.
One must consider all the circum-
stances and be governed accordingly.
A beginner will do well to consult
those who have farmed in his local
ity for many years, and if such ex-
perience is not available, to use a
liberal allowance of seed until he has
learned the proper amount.
When mixtures are sown, num-
Der Of considerations govern the
amount of each kind to use. In SOW
ing grasses and clover together it is
customary to SOW enough of both
for a full stand. But if several grasses
are used in the mixture, the amount
of each is usually somewhat reduced.
In parts of the timothy region, it is
customary to add more or less red
top to the timothy and clover, except
when the hay is grown for sale; but
the amount of timothy seed is not
thereby reduced.
The amount Of each kind of seed
to be used depends partly on how
much of each kind of grass is de-
sired in the hay. Redtop is usually
added as filler to increase the yield,
rather than because of its desirability
in the hay, and hence the proportion
Of it's seed is small. Some authorities
recommend that nearly as much of
each seed be used in mixture as if
it were to be sown alone, and this
is very good rule if one is not sure
Of the quality of the seed. A general
rule is to reduce the amount of each
kind of seed in proportion to the num-
Der of kinds in the mixture. This rule
should be used with much caution, yet
it is guide of some value.

as is usually the case, the box will re-
quire a greater height in front, to
make it set level, as shown in Fig. 2.
The box should be well nailed or
screwed together and should then be
painted all over to make it more dura-
BILE. A number of one-half inch holes
should be drilled in the bottom, thus
allowing the excess water to run out
and prevent rotting the plants and
box.
Having completed the bare box, it
may be trimmed to suit the fancy of
the maker. The design shown in Fig.
l is very simple and easy to construct
but may be replaced with a panel or
other design. One form of panel de-
sign is shown in Fig. 3.
Trimming having too rough sur
face will be found unsuitable for this
work, as it is difficult to fasten and cam
not be split as well as smooth trimming.
1t should be cut the proper length
before being split and should be fast
ened on with brads. The half-round
hoops of barrels will be found very
useful in trimming, especially for fill
ing-in purposes, and by using them the
operation Of splitting is avoided. After
the box is trimmed, the rustic work
should be vanished. x order to thor
oughly preserve it, az well as improve
its appearance.

SETTING OUT TREES.
Yearly Practice Of Planting Trees a
Good One.

On our farm we have made it
practice every spring to set out some
trees. We choose this season of the
year because we have had better sue
cess in getting them to grow than we
have by planting them in the fall. This
holds good not only with forest trees,
but also with fruit trees and even
strawberries.
OF late years we have been putting
our trees along the highway and now
we have some beautiful trees growing
there Some of those we set our first
are now six or seven inches in diane
ter, having made this growth in the
last Is years. And these, too, being
hard or sugar naples, have grown as
slowly as any trees, almost, that one
might choose to set out. In our state,
New York, writes e. L. Vincent in
Farmers Review, there is a state
law providing for certain tax deduc-
tons for setting out trees along the
highway, but we have never taken adj
vantage of it, being very well satisfied
with the added beauty, as well as the
prospective usefulness to us of the
trees.
Not far from our place there is
farm with so many trees of the variety
mentioned the sugar naples, along
the road that the owner can tap quite
a sugar orchard right there if he
wishes to. The trees have gained
good size now, so that they would not
be materially injured by careful tap
ping. There is this great advantage
in a sugar bush of this sort. 1t is
easy of access. One need not travel
around over rough roads to do the
work. 1t is always neat and clean and
the work of gathering the sap is not
hard. Some day we will all pay more
attention to this matter of setting out
trees than we do now. and it will be
great thing for the country when we
do

The Only Way.

There is no safe method of deter
mining the butter qualities of a herd
except by testing or churning the milk
of each COW separately. The bulk Of
the milk is not a sure indication. Very
often the COW that gives but moder.
ate quantity of milk may yield the
largest amount of butter. In breeding
up herd a knowledge of the charac-
teristics of each COW will enable the
dairyman to breed for the best results,
as the superior COWS may be used for
breeding to thoroughbred bulls. It
does not pay to keep the calves unless
the merits of their sires and dams are
well known.
