Here is something that is worth
five dollars to every farmer in the
land to know. Sprinkle a little
stone lime in your stock tanks and
not particle of green scum will
form on the water. When the lime
loses it's strength and the scum
begins to form, which may be twice
during the season, wash out the tank
and repeat the dose. 1t is not only
harmless, but wholesome and keeps
the water sweet and saves work.--Ex.

The stork appears, and we look
into the cradle and behold male
child. After running the gauntlet
of measles. mumps and chicken
pox he enters school. At the age
of ten he is a towheaded and freckle
faced boy, the terror of the neigh
borhood; at twelve he is an ap-
prentice in printing office; at
eighteen he has acquired two cases
of long primer and an army press
and is the proud editor of country
newspaper; at twenty-one he IS
married;at thirty heis bald-headed,
stoop shouldered man, the father OF
a large family; at thirty-five he is a
corpse in a cheap pine coffin. AS
500 delinquent subscribers file past
his bier for a last look at his ia
miliar face, they are heard to say:
HE was a good fellow, but he
couldn't save his money. "-Ex.

THE STUDENTS EYES.
Every now and then we hear of
some brilliant young fellow blighted
in his career because his eyes gave
out.
Parents should see to it before
permitting their children to take up
any prolonged course of study,
that the eyes are in condition to
stand the strain. The surest way
to determine this is to have them
examined by competent eye spe-
cialist, so that if glasses are needed,
they are worn before it is too late.
