FEEDING NEW GRAIN.

Go slow in feeding any kind of new
grain to live stock. Nothing will throw
horses out of condition quicker than
new oats. They loosen the bowels, in
duce collie, and If they do nothing
worse they will soften the horses down
and render them unfit for hard work.
New oats really should not be fed for
two or three months, after they are
harvested. If there are no old oats to
be had, better feed old corn to the
horses for awhile.
New corn will be fed this season
perhaps earlier than it has for many
years. While there was a big crop
last year, farmers have been feeding
more live stock than for many years,
and on account of the high prices
many have sold down very short;
hence they will start in on the new
corn just as soon as possible Hogs
usually get the first roasting ears. II
the feeding of this green stuff is done
sensibly there is not much danger, but
if one undertakes to crowd hogs on
this fresh green corn, look out for all
sorts of trouble. While the ears are
in the milk, cut stalks and all and
throw them into the feed yards. The
hogs will chew up the stalks and will
not get enough of the ears to hurt
them. By feeding in this way for two
or three weeks the hogs will become
accustomed to the change, and by the
time the stalks become tough they are
ready for the ears. For the first
month, after starting to feed ears, snap
the corn. The husks prevent the hogs
eating too greedily.
If some judgment is used some
green corn fodder may be fed to adj
vantage to cows, but it is not fit for
horses. l saw a farmer just few days
ago cut up stalks and ears fine, put
some salt on it and feed it at midday
to his work team. 1t is risky business
l would prefer to feed any old stuff
I happen to have. Green corn is not
fit for horses.

to be thankful for; no matter what
our lot may be, there is a world of
things for which we should express
our thanks on the 28th day of this

and yet we cannot help wonder how
many of US viii neglect to return

The Flaming Way.
Copyright: 1907: by Byron Williams.


Beside the sparsely wooded paths, the
flaming sumacs stand,
The scarlet sentinels of blood, outposts
of Loversland!
When frosts have sent their simmer
down. the sumac bushes red
And paints the hills for miles around
where Autumn hues have bled!
The oak, turned rHsset-brown and gold,
rears backgrounds. rich and deep;
The grape draws sap and spurns her
leaves to everlasting sleep.
The maple takes the purple tint, then
oriole and red
But ever brighter, grander far. the su-
mac lifts her head!
Through rocky dell. beside the lake. or
where the road ,eads on,
The deep vermilion ot the West, the su-
mac bushes do2.
The blood of all her race she throws unto
the AutUmn's SKY
And stands triumphant in the wood the
flaming torch OF day!
And meath the conhagration shed on
tracery divine.
The lover feels his pulses throb with
warm affections wine
And hard be heart of sweetheart fair
that will not grant his love,
II he but speak when sumac flames leap
up to skies above.
Close in his arms in Loversland, he holds
her to his breast
The color of her cheeks and lips bespeak
the sumac's crest
And there within the Autumn wood, he
wins her heart for aye
With sumac over all the hills and heaven
in the sky!

attract the attention of your wife,

sitting at home with your wife in the
evening, and hear tapping on the
window, and know that your admirer
was outside waiting to see you? How
would you like TO have your admirer
tell you that she intended to commit
suicide in the presence Of your wife and
drench your wife with her blood? How
would you, like to have your admirer
prOwl about your neighborood at night
and cause your neighbors to watch?
How would you like to go to your front
door at night and confront your ad-
mirer with a razor in her hand? Sup
pose you should take the razor away
from her and she should cut you on
the hand and say she had four other
razors at home? Suppose you should
make one last effort to get away, and
call on your admirer and your admirer
would cut her throat in your presence,
and sprinkle your shirt and vest with
blood? That's what happened to a

NO WATER DURING WIHTER1 IN BENNETT FOUNTAIN
Professor Weir Explains That This is General Custom
 Everywhere.

While the Bennett memorial fountain on the Green was only opened for pub lie use yesterday and the water of Lake Whitney was allowed to flow through 1t then for the first time it will refresh but few wayfarers until next spring as on account of the ad- vent of cold weather the water will be shut off soon and will no more be used there until the warm weather returns in the spring.
 Professor Weir, the designer of the fountain when asked about the matter stated last evening thar this was but according to general custom. Said he' All fountains all over the country are shut off during the winter. This is done In every city in the union chiefly to prevent being nuisance to the neighborhood by overflowing and form ing cakes of ice about 1t. New York Washington, Boston and all the cities do the same. Besides no one would want to drink there In the winter sea- son anyway. Of course the fountain could run all winter but that would only be nuisance. And there would also be the danger of some injury re- sulting to the fountain itself But chiefly 1t is the general custom to shut off fountains in the winter season ev- erywhere so that this Is no exceptional case.'
 The fountain will be in use at noon to-day and then in all probability will go out of service for the winter.

TRICKS or THE FARMERS.
Cold Storage Eggs for Newly Laid and

SONu storage hBBS TOT NeWly Latu ana
 Western Turkeys for Natives.
 As a company of gentlemen were talking about matters in general Sum- day evening some one spoke about farmers, who it was said sold cold storage eggs as strictly fresh, and this led to one of the group telling about a certain farmer from a northern suburb who for several years brought num- bers of turkeys to this place at Thanksgiving and Christmas, and found ready sales for them as ''na- tives," at several cents per pound ad- vance over the prices charged by the local meat men for their fowls. The gentleman telling the story stated that tho farmer had net raised any turkeys for many years, but purchased the fowls of the very same dealers that supplied the local meat dealers. The farmer, however, would take orders for the birds week or more in ad- vance of the holidays, and describing them as ch6ice native turkeys, had no trouble in securing many orders
 There werea number who, while pur- chasing their every day meat supplies from the local dealers, would look as- kance at the turkeys displayed by, these same dealers and pay several cents per pound more Tor the natives () brought to them by the farmer. The latter told the gentleman who gave the snap away last evening just how he did the trick. He went to the regular dealers, and, by offering them few cents per pound more than the regular wholesale price, secured the privilege of picking out his birds, and in this way had only the very best the market afforded, although they were not natives. The farmer is dead now so the gentleman did not feel obliged to keep the secret but said that he had often laughed when he heard some housewives telling, with consid- erable pride, of the fine native turkeys they had purchased from this particu- lar farmer, and how much nicer they were than anything obtainabis at the local markets.
