who addressed the meeting on Convictions
In the Religious Work of the Young Mems
Christian Association
"a conviction said Mr.. Arnold, sis not
an idea, a within, nor even a purpose, but
rather a deep-seated principle that grips
a man and brings to him the very best in
his nature concerning life and conduct. >
Referring to the work Of the Young Mems
Christian association, he said: Such ar
organization is not a building. valuable a:
that may be, but a mighty leavening force
moving out In a community and touching
It for better things. Buildings and equip
ment may help. but only when there is q
vital religious force behind and within them
Some Of the very best Young Mems Chris
tlan associations l have known have beer
in country places where there were M
buildings nor equipment. Only homes
hearts fired with a determined ambition t.
extend the kingdom of God among men,"
Before closing Mr.. Arnold outlined briefl!
a plan for the federation of mems club

~i-orethousht and Intelligent Super
vision Insure a Good Lawn.
Great care should be taken by the
gardener with his lawn. 1t is the can
vas upon which he will paint his flow
er bed pictures and landscape effects.
To be successful he must prepare his
canvas well.
The first thing is to grade the
ground, smoothing rough surfaces,
making proper level stretches and gen
tie slopes. If possible, the lawn should
slope from the house. The grading
should be done so as to distribute
evenly all surface water, avoiding the
formation of little runs which might
produce washouts.
The soil should be enriched with a
liberal supply of we'll rotted manure.
This Is essential where the soil is lack
ing in humus; otherwise bone meal or
other good fertilizer is useful, and ma
nure often contains the seed Of weeds.
The ground should be plowed or spad-
ed not less than eight inches deep, re
moving all the stones and similar ma
terial, and the surface made as smooth
as possible. Then it is ready for SOW
ing.
One Of the best mixtures for the
lawn Is four parts Kentucky blue grass
with one part Of white clover, sown
not less than five bushels to the acre.
Equally good results are usually OBJ
tained by the S Of redtop in place
Of the blue grass or with equal parts
Of redtop and blue grass and a little
white clover. When moisture Is plen-
tiful the blue grass forms a softer turf
than the redtop, but does not seem to
endure drought SO well. In shady
places the blue grass mixture Is best.
Nothing but pure seed should be sown.
1t is well to be liberal with the seed,
not to scatter 1t too thinly and to re-
seed portions that come up poorly.

required distance at each end and place
a pole upright at each end and at the
end opposite to the one where you
commence blowing. Place another
pole farther on, lining it up with the
end poles. Step off the same distance
at each end that you do at the sides,
so the land will be the right proper
ton. Start the plow and keep the two
end poles in line between the horses
heads, and get a straight furrow to
start with. All that is now necessary
Is to keep the back furrow straight
with the other, and after that keep
the horse in the furrow, and turn the
soil in even layers, slightly tapping
over, leaving no space between them.
AS soon as a land is finished harrow
and drag it before commencing anoth-
er field. If using two teams, the first
one to finish uses the harrow and drag.
This rests the team by a change. This
method puts the land in fine condition
and saves much future work, as fresh
ly plowed land works much better
than where an entire field Is plowed
before dragging Oh narrowing.
Dragging dutch fashion" may be
new to some and prove of value. Its
advantages are that it drags neither
lengthwise 0 square across the fur
rows and makes easier than
the ordinary diagonal dragging. The
plain Dutch fashion Is shown in the
diagram. Commence by striking OUT
from A to 3. Turn to the right and
20 back on the left side Of first track
till you reach edge Of field near A.
Drive across the first track and back
on the opposite side to the other end.
Cross over and back on opposite side
again.
Continue crossing yer at each end
inside your last track and outside the
last track along the sides. When half
done the piece will look like the first
diagram, and the next trip would be
from c to D, to E, to F, to G. When
done the last trip would be from G to
II, and the piece will have been drag
ged twice ~diagonally in opposite direc-
tons. This works we'll on pieces that
are nearly square or not more than
twice as long as wide. OF late, said
one who had tried this system, we
have found that it is economy in plow-
ing, cu~ltivating, etc, to make our lands
as long as possible. On these Dutch
dragging did not work as well, as 1t
was too near lengthwise the burrows,
so we hit upon what we call "crazy
Dutch shown In the second diagram.
We strike OUT zigzag across the
piece two or three or more times, &C
cording to its length compared to
width. The diagram shows three times
viz, from A to B, to c, to D. Turn to the
right and go back on left to first track
to G and drive across 1t. Go on right
side to B, then up left side to A. Cross
over and back on left side Of B. Drive
straight r the first two tracks,
turn to the left and go on right side to

liberal space. If you have simply a
town or city lot, make the most of this
small plot OF ground at your disposal,
remembering that by cutting back the
new growth every year on the fruit
trees many of them can be grown in
small space Or on the borders neal
fences.
You may have n row devoted to
~grapevines, another row to raspber-
ries, another row to blackberries, an
other to currants and several rows de-
voted to strawberries, each row run
ming the whole length Of the fruit gar
den and so planted as to admit Of
horse cultivation. The disposal Of the
rows of apple, peach, pear, plum and
cherry trees can be easily arranged.
Plant the rows of trees far enough
apart to admit the various rows Of
small fruits between the rows Of trees.
Grapevines will thrive equally well
when trained to the side Of the house
or to any other building or trained to
the pillars of the porches of the house.
If there is a surplus of fruit 1t may
be easily marketed. If sent to the city
1t must be carefully packed. The crate
shown in the sketch is equipped with a
tight wooden cover, yet is sufficiently
open to allow the air to circulate. 1t
will hold about sixty quarts Of ber-
rieS.

pnd may taste good and still be dan
Eerous for drinking purposes. A chem
ical analysis, supplemented when nee
essary by a psychological examina-
ton, is needed to determine the quality
Of a given sample Of water for domes-
tic purposes. One examination is not
always sufficient to decide the fitness
Of the water, as contamination Is more
likely to take place at one time Of the
year than another.
The amount of rainfall will influence
very considerably the bacterial con-
tents Of water from shallow wells or
poorly constructed cisterns. During
the heavy spring rains the number of
bacteria reaches an enormous figure
and decreases again as the dry season
progresses. All of tho bacteria that are
found in the water are not dangerous,
but If drainage and other conditions
allow contamination from outside
sources there is always an opportunity
for the introduction Of disease produc-
ing germs.

HORSE SENSE.
Some Sensible Advice In Regard to
Collars and Their Use.

Some Sensible Advice In Regard to
Collars and Their Use.
The closely padded, ill fitting, soft
collar means suffering and shortens
the life for the horse. -
Years ago I gave up the hot, sticky
pad" said an intelligent farmer, "and
have used only the close fitting, hard
leather collar, which we have endeav-
ored to keep clean. This clean collar,
with a good washing Of the shoulders
moor and nights, has generally suficed
to keep them free from soreness. Still,
during the constant use Of the riding
cultivator in our cornfelds the necks
sometimes get sore, caused by the
weight and the moving Of the collar
across the skin at each step Of the
horse. We are all inclined to use col
lars too large for the horse. Much
pains should be taken in the first fit
ting Of the collar, and If 1t is thorough
ly soaked and placed on the horse
while still wet it will usually shape it
self to the shoulders. Another thing,
we try to avoid a too low draft. The
way double harnesses are usually made
all the weight comes on the horses
necks, and there is a constant tend
ency to lower the draft even until it
comes nearly to the point Of the Shout
der. This should be overcome as far
as possible. The draft should be high
enough to insure an ever bearing the
entire length of the shoulder, and nei-
Their should the girth be buckled tight
enough to cause any draft on the top
Of the neck. In fact, a gfrth is unnec-
essary and need never be used except
where the traces are attached to the
load above a right angle to the horses
shoulders. Steel collars are in use near
us, and I am going to try a pair this
spring. I think the principle is right,
and they strike me as being very con-
venient."

BRUSSELS SPROUTS.
Easy to Raise and Profitable If Prop
erIy Marketed.

erIy Marketed.
Brussels sprouts may be easily
grown in the ordinary home vegetable
garden. The plant is a close relative Of
the cabbage and caulidower, but in
stead Of producing a single head forms
q number Of small ones In the axis Of
the leaves, and these heads are called
sprouts and are the edible part Of the
vegetable. The sprouts average n or
two inches in diameter.
The seed should be sown in the open
ground as early as the weather per-
mits. When the plants are three inches
high they should be transplanted or
thinned out into rows twenty-four to
thirty inches apart and about two feet
apart in the row. The plants must be
we'll watered after they have been
moved.
AS the small sprouts begin to crowd
the leaves should be broken from the
stem to give the small heads more
room. A few leaves should be left at
the top of the stem where the new
heads are formed.
In warm climates the plants may be
left in the open ground all winter, the
heads being removed as desired, but
in more northern ATTITUDES plants that
are we'll laden with heads are taken up
when frost comes and set close to-
gether in a pit or cellar or a "cold
frame" or bed covered with glass.
With a little soil packed about their
roots thesknay in this way be kept all
winter, being used when needed. When
boiled or stewed with cream they are
delicious.

NEW LOG SAVING DEVICE.

facilitate the saving Of the log. The
details Of this attachment are shown.
Says the Scientific American: "The at
tachment consists Of q clamp adapted
to be secured to the handle ca of an
ordinary ak. The clamp comprises
two jaws OBJ, through which a bolt is
passed. The upper end of this bolt
terminates in a support The support
consists of two parallel arms, between
which a roller (O) is mounted to rotate.
The bolt which passes through the
jaws Of the clamp is fitted with q wing
nut, and by turning this nut the jaws
may be pressed together OF the handle
of the AZ. In use the ak is driven into
the log, and the clamp Is then made
fast with the support, standing YER
tically. The IA is then guided be-
tween the arms of the support, and
the back of the saw rests on the roller.
With the saw thus supported and
guided, it may be operated in the
usual to saw through the log.
The roller may be mounted near the
outer end Of the support or close to the
jaws. In the former case the saw will
operate between the roller and the
jaws, and the support must be mount
ed to project downward. In order to
permit Of removing the saw from the
support it is preferable to support the
saw On the outer side Of the roller,
guiding 1t in the open Slot formed by
the two arms of the support. The
clamp is then applied, with the support
projecting upward instead of down
ward" This useful attachment for
saving logs has been patented by Mr..
Levi Smith of Marshfield, Coos oun
ty, Ore.

Grafton, and cultivation Is accomplish
ed by getting rid of what he does not
want. There were cut from the ma
tional forests during the last fiscal
year the equivalent of a little over
$50, 900, GOO board feet Of timber. This
involved cutting operations on slightly
less than 100000 acres Of land, or
about n four-hundredths of the total
area of the governments forests. In
other words, hardly a beginning has
been made in bringing the forests to
their highest productiveness through
use, and their reserve of mature tim
Der has scarcely been touched by the
operations under way. There is
ey in the wood lot, and the average
farmer in awakening to this fact.
