Trembling with rage he strobe upon
the other and seemed, as he lowered
above him, bent on the contamination
of his desire to slay. But Jack cow:
cred down upon one knee, surprise
and remorse written in his startled
eyes and opened lips.
He raised himself to his feet with
his whole thought speaking in the

tragic, sweeping gesture of surrender

said: you're right! My life can't

AS they approached the black, squat

outlined against a group of pines, the
night painted the picture. Dimly out.
lined, trail led away from the front
of the cabin toward the hill, and to
other habitations in those other miles

The man behind broke the silence.

The other man turned slowly on his
shoes and faced him, vaguely realiz-

great that it rendered, even in this
terrible distress, one cabin roof too
small for both. He was overwhelmed.

He thrust his bearded face forward

Then, with laugh in which was

For the sorrowinu,

You hear an endless cry that goes
Lamenting through the somber air,
OF nations bent with many woes,
Or gauntly wrestling with despair,
hear a psalm by myriads sung
A psalm that knows no stint nor stay,
And 10! voice calls old and young
To be indeed as blest as they.
You watch life bereft of light.
For ever wrapped in unthinned gloom,
Whose only tranquil time seems night,
Whose happiest hope and rest the tomb;
watch the life and know that God
So guides the soul to heaven above,
You only see the shifting rod
But ah! the Power that snites is Love.
You see world that wildly whirls
Through coiling clouds of battle smoke,
And drench'd with blood the children's
curls
And women's hearts by thousands
broke;
see host above it all.
Where angels WELD their conquering
sword,
And thrones may rise or thrones may
fall,
But comes the kingdom of the Lord.
Alfred Norris.
It's easy to steal business away
from competitor, if you're honest
about it.

these four lots contained % ewes and
% wethers; one lot contained % ewes
and only 81 wethers. They were Sc
lected from lot of about $50 head
Of. Wyoming-bred lambs.
All of the lambs were fed corn
and clover hay alike, until the initial
weights for the experiment were Sc.
cured.
1t was planned to feed grain rations
as follows to the four lots of
lambs:
Lot 1. Corn five parts; linseed oil
meal, one part.
Lot 2. Corn, stock food.
Lot 8. Corn (about one-sixth more
than lot 4 received).
Lot 4. Corn.
Lots 1, 2 and received, as a rule,
the same amount of grain daily per
lot. Table 1 shows shows the aver
age amount of the various concen-
trates consumed daily by each of the
four lots of lambs during each of the
four four-week periods of the test.
All four lots of lambs were fed
clover hay in such quantities as tney
would consume without excessive
waste. The clover was of good quail
ity. The amount of clover refused by
the various lots will show something
of it's purity. Some coarser parts of
the plants were left, but what was left
was not very palatable and had little
feeding value. All corn used was
shelled before weighing and feeding.
In this experiment most of the oil
meal used was finely ground. A
small amount of the "pea-size" was
used. At first the lambs did not
seem to relish the finely ground meal,
but soon came to eat it very we'll.
The stock food was of the same
brand and lot that was used in the
previous experiment, purchased from
local dealer. The lambs ate it very
readily throughout the experiment.
The lambs in lots. 3 and 4 refused
some of their grain during. part Of
the experiment, and, on this account,
their grain allowance was reduced
somewhat, as shown in table.

Cleaning Seed Wheat.-The top
screen in the tanning mill should be
large enough to let the wheat through
yet small enough to keep out. the
straws and weed stems. Let this
screen have just enough slant so the
straws will shake off behind. Below
this screen should be board to carry
the wheat back to about three inches
of the end of the cheat screen. This
gives the cheat the entire length of
the screen to fall through. Set the,
cheat screen little bit in, so the
straws will not fall on it. from the top
screen. Wheat, which contains much
cheat, should be run through very
slowly, as this will clean it much bet.

Wheat straw was used for bedding

cient quantities to keep the pens from
becoming at all filthy. Besides the
wheat straw, the refuse hay, consist
ing chiefly Of the less palatable por.
tons Of the clover hay, was used as
bedding for the lot which refused It.
The average daily amount of bedding
(straw and refuse hay) for each Of the
lots was as follows: Lot 1, 1914
pounds; lot 2, 1850 pounds; lot 8,
1910 pounds; lot 4, 1898 pounds.
Each lot of lambs received, twice
weekly, until February 26, ~ pound
of mixture made up, by weight, of
four parts salt to one part sulphur.
Beginning February 26, 11s pound Of
the mixture was fed to each lot
twice weekly.
The lambs were fed in barn GA by
100 feet, with hay storage above. A
row of eight pens 1875 feet by 26 feet
long (these measurements include
the space occupied by feed racks and
watering tanks) was on each side of
the barn, with 12-foot driveway be-
tween the two rows of pens. Racks
for hay and grain extended along each
side of each pen, giving about 50
feet of feeding space for each A

The Farm Toolhouse.-No build,
ing on the farm pays bet
ter than a good Toulouse. 1t should
be so convenient for access that there
need be no excuse for leaving farm
implements exposed to the weather
when not in use. Properly cared for.
many implements that now last only
few years ought to be serviceable as
long as the farmer lives to need them.
Besides, tool that has not been rust
ed, warped and cracked by exposure,
will work as we'll the second and third
year of it's use as the first. On many
farms the tools are so much injured
by being left out of doors that after
the first season they cost more for
repair than they save in labor.

to-day defended his conduct OF the foreign pol
icy Of Italy during the recent troubles in the
Balkans He said his course was necessary. be-
cause If Italy Withdrew from the Triple Alliance

intervene in the Internal affairs OF Austria The
Triple Alliance only guaranteed Italian inter-
ests in Albania and Macedonia, while Bosnia

edged, belonged thoroughly to Austria
The Foreign Minister said that an under
standing between Italy and Russia was a &C
con1plished fact, and that its Importance would
increase in the future italian interests in the
Balkans were merely economic and opposed TO
any territorial occupation Some persons, Sig
nor Tittoni concluded. proposed that Italy
should choose between her allies and her friend
