A farmer near our town recently hir-
ed a lad to help him do chores. One
morning he told him to take some salt
to calf out in the pasture. The
boy took a quart of salt with him and
thoroughly rubbed it all over the cali,
working it in the hair. A gang of colts
in the pasture scented the salt and
got after the calf. They licked all the
hair off the calf and nearly took the
hide off to -Perham Bulletin.

A good story is being told on land
lord not over a hundred miles from
here. A travelling man stopped at
the hotel for breakfast. At dinner
time while he was standing outside,
the landlord came out and rang the

near began to howl dismally. Turning
to the dog the travelling man said
"What the d. are you bowling
about, you don't have to eat here.''

Weather and Crops

Still frost holds off and another
week will see the the corn crop fully
matured. In fact, corn is SO far ma
tured that frost now would not
greatly injure it.
There have been several heavy
showers this week, but about half the
time has been favorable for threshing.
The rain will help blowing, SO the
rain is more of a benefit than other
wise. -

A New Use for TOadS.

The latest and most ingenious way
of getting rid of reaches and water
bugs we have heard of it's related of a
citizen of Schenectady whose kitchen
was infested with them. A servant,
hearing that toads were an antidote,
caught three ordinary hop toads and
put them in the kitchen. Not roach
or water bug, it is stated, can be
found in the house. The toads have
become domesticated, never wander
about the house, and are so clearly
and inoffensive that there is no objec-
ton to their presence.
Another use for toads is to employ
them for insect destroyers in the gar
dens. They are determined enemies of
all kinds of snails and slugs, which it
is we'll know can in single night de-
troy a vast quantity of lettuce, carrots
asparagus, etc. Toads are also kept
in vineyards, where they devour dur
ing the night millions of insects that
escape the pursuit of nocturnal birds.
and might commit incalculable havoc
on the binds and young shoots of the
vine. In Paris toads are an article of
merchandise. They are kept in tubs
and sold at the rate of two francs a
dozen.-Hampshire Gazette.

A man who boasts of having no en-

self, for he could not have or said
much that was of benefit. to the human
race without making enemies of those

A tramp has beaten all known re-
cords by swimming twenty-se seven
miles in thirty minutes. He did not
mean to do it. He merely tried to
steal ride from St. Louis to Chicago
on the rear of a locomotive tender.
When the train started he fell over
backward, through the open manhole,
into the water tank. The noise of the
train drowned his cries for help, and
he was obliged to swim until the first
stop was reached, at Alton. When tax
en- out he was nearly dead, but the en-
gineer was so unfeeling as to call his
attention to the fact that the water
was only four feet deep and he might
have stood up. The conductor, also,
unfeelingly asked him for his ticket,
but the tramp said he did not come by
rail, but by water.-Blue Earth Register.

In the eastern states, the hay cro]

In the eastern states, the hay crop
is very important one, a staple or
leading crop, in fact. But in those
states-even way down in New Eng
land-the summer has been very dry,
and consequently the nay crop is short.
And as we come farther west, into the
middle states, the crop is not up to the
average, yet that region is great con-
sumner of hay-is in the habit of it
and can't we'll resist the habit. In fact,
the hay crop generally is light one,
which signifies to everv farmer the
importance of putting up all the hay
and other forage crops possible, the
last to reduce the consumption of
corn on the place and release more
hay to the markets. Before hay ma
lures again there will pc big demand
for it.-Farm Stock and Home.

must take form from an unembodied
idea. The ritual had been bis guide
before, and his genius, set free to soar
as it would, futtered wildly without
direction. The young sculptor realized
that he was in need Of model. Sto-
