Fad weather Is abused almost az
much as a married man.
As a rule. the q man is the
more he thinks OF himself.
Drinking men seldom become great
Neither do fishing n hunting men.
Many people would be more truth
ful, were it not for their uncomfortable
desire to talk.
A man Is sometimes 80 busy making
money that he neglects to take care az
what he has already made.
Occasionally we meet n drunken man
who claims to be smart, but a sober
ma soon gets over the notion.
The first face a child sees is full az
Kindness. Ind the last to bend over
him when he is old and dying, Is fun
OF plying tenderness. 1t Is The faces
he sees III between that cause him trou-
Bile.
The longer we live, the more we be-
come impressed wits. the fact that
where q find one person able to do
something fairly wen, there are twenty
who frivoi, mi believe their worthless
ness Is genius.
We have heard at least nsne out OF
ten OF u friends say that they have
had CROUCH trouble without that, no
doubt referring. Is the croWning sorrow,
81 all. from which we are lsl to be-
Heve that no ore Is exempt from great

Referred to the Authorities.

To President Roosevelt and DR.. Long
this nature story is respectfully re-
ferred. The animal in question be-
longs to a gilded youth who has more
money than he knows what to do with.
and consequently spends it somewhat
boyishly. His retriever enjoys q scent

ly particular as to where he dimes. He
Is now growing fat and lazy, and. al
though fond Of sneaking out for a
morning stroll in Central park. OBJ
jects to walking home again. His plan
Is to watch for a hanson, If going in
his direction at a walk, and Slip into
It. When any attempt is made to dis
lodge him he simply displays two rows
OF magnificent teeth and wrinkles his
upper lip in a curiously suggestive
smile. Most OF the park keepers Know
him, give the cabmen his address.
Cabmen In the vicinity Of he mark

doors invitingly open. When the dog
reaches home he remains in the cab
until the valet comes out to pay his

When corn was sold at 10 or is cents
per bushel n a quarter Of a dol
lar was a high price, the farmer could
afford to put a blanket of fat around
his cattle or horses and allow them
considerable exposure to the weather.
Though It was probably never eco
nonical and certainly not humanitar-
ian, to winter stock with only barb
wire" shelter 1t certainly is not in
these days. Feed is high so is lum-
Der. but the latter properly put into
buildings can be used many winters
while the former once assimilated by
the animal will never be available
again for the same purpose. There
fore provide shelter for your stock. It
need not be expensive but enough to
keep off the storms and allow at least
a quiet, reasonably warm and dry
place at nights. Men are out all day
in this wind and cold, but they want
a warm place at night, SO, too, it seems.
il wouiu De profitable to prepar for
the stock. Horses not at work win
winter with little shelter, and If feed
is plentiful, will come out in the spring
in shape for a seasons work and be
better than if kept in a close barn
and fed heavily with grain.

Ihe Importance of considering the
plant on which the seed selected for
growing the next crop is not as a gen
eral thing considered as it should be.
I've rows OF corn, planted by an ex-
pertinent station in trial plots had
nearly half of the stalks down on the
ground. two other rows had only three
or fou per cent SO down. Yet if seed
were picked from the wagon at husk-
ing time there would be many ears Sc
lected from the former sort of stalks as
undesirable as they are. Potatoes from
a plant that has produced a number of
large, smooth .tubers will be much more
desirable for planting thar even better
specimens from plants that produced
only one good potato and a number OF
small or rough ones. To tell anything
about these things the seed must be Sc
lected Ism the field. We would much
rather plant the small potatoes from a
productive plant than the large ones
from plants that did not produce but
the one large smooth tuber.
AS a man is of little consequence in
the world without at least a reasonably
good physical being so the plant is Of
little consequence that is not strong
and hardy. The man may by great at
tention to avoid ~unfavorable conditions
accomplish something OF good, but the
plant cannot be protected from the va
riations Of the weather to the same ex-
tent that many may care for himself.
Pick out suitable ears, grown on the
proper sort of stalks, dry out we'll and
keep dry or put where they will not
freeze severely, or better both dry and
keep from very great cold and the time
spent will do much to prevent the poor
stand that is now being husked. The
loss in the corr crop Of 1907 from
planting ordinarily good seed would
pay many times the cost OF having had
strictly good seed corn. We do not for

Rare Ice.

irving Brokaw. Americas champion
Iigure skater, said of skating at a din
ner at the Knickerbocker club in New
York:
we are not good skaters in this
part of the country because we don't
get enough ice. Good ice Is as rare
with us as jewels. The way we nrize
1t IS almost l%aughable.
IN my boyhood 1 knew q man.
Jeremy Corne by name. who used to
charge 20 cents admission to it.
one winter the weather was horribly
hlild. with December well on, the pond
mad not once frozen over. Jeremy
Corne was in despair.
;sc,, me a cold day came and a light
scum FORMED on the water. There was
another cold day. and that scum turned
TO ciear green ice. A crowd OF yorng
people came with their skates and their
quarters, but Jeremy would not let
them on the pond.
The ice is still too thin to bear
ye.' he said. 'Ye'd Spite %eyerything
and maybe get drowned into the bar.

rlMRER FOB SHELTER.

Did you ever heal q man regret that
he planted a grove or a shelter bef
twenty or more years ago? Have you
heard others say: IF L had planted
trees there and pointing out some
particular place, "when 1 first came
here what a great advantage 1t would
be to the farm now" or words of that
purport? Time is short looking back
wards and if you are thinking of plant
ing some trees do not allow the idea
of time to prevent. The shelter Of a
grove in our colder climates is great.
Northern low or similar ATTITUDES will
be more comfortable on a cold winter
day behind a well grown windbreak
than a hundred miles south without
shelter. We will never forget one event
full cold stormy day in southern Mime
sofa. many years ago when facing a
northwest wind we were approaching a
set of well put up farm buildings. Half
a mile or more away we could see the
cattle standing in apparent comfort
and we wondered, but suddenly there
was a change, our horses had cantered
Into the protection of a timber claim
grove n it seemed that the mercury
had risen 40 degrees in a minute.
Cattle and horses were nibbling at
the straw stack, their owner was work
ing o with apparent comfort and
even l got warm in the pleasant sur
~roundings. That state is ahead of Iowa
in the way of shelter belts and on that
account the rigors Of winter are less
felt than further south. The timber
countries are pleasanter in winter than
the prairies and corn was grown much
more satisfactorily in the big woods
country han in more SC ATTITUDES
where timber was unknown.
With these thoughts In mind let US
have more shelter belts planted. Trees
are a great help in the dry winds
country as they will modify the effect
or those crop destroying freaks Of ma
ture. In one of our dry years the only
flelds OF corn that produced any appre-
c1abie crop were those on the north side
OF the hills or north of a shelter belt
of trees. We see these things when
the Winds, either hot or cold, blow, but
as trees cannot be planted then all is
forgotten about them when planting
time comes. Trees sap the soil, moth
ing can be raised near them" True,
but a field with a shelter belt will prob
ably in a series Of years produce more
one without.
Shelter for the buildings is ever more
important. A few rows of evergreens
will add many dollars to the farm ten
or twenty years hence if PLANTED next
spring and properly cared for. A few
years only is required before they will
need no attention further than keeping
the stock away from them, and their
has begun. Does any one
soubt the advantage of a grove for
shelter? II so let him get out in a wind
where 1T has a fair sweep and stand
still a While hen get behind a grove
and compare the differences. Broken
hil!y countries do not need the trees
as do more level sections of country
but in the latter that are "a thing Of
beauty n joy forever" Stock gets
out of the winds behind hills and barns
are put in protected places where the
face of the country will so admit.
Aye, plant a tree, Jock, it will be
growing while we're %sleepin'."
