Notes of the Hog Lot.

Glover is our cheapest hog food and
every farmer should plan TO use all
he can Of it.

Rettar send the pigs to bed hungry

same and the cost less.

TELLING THE AGE OF EGGS.
In the Paris markets they have a
certain way Of deciding the Of
eggs which seems practical.
About six ounces Of cook
ing salt is put in a large glass, which
is filled with water. When the salt
is in solution the egg is dropped In
the glass
If the egg is only one day old it
sinks to the bottom OF
the glass.
From five days upward 1T floats. The
older it is the more it protrudes out
of water.

When such news comes to the town
every man or boy who can beg or bor-

the beach armed with a six-foot bam-

steel hook
They dash into the surf and, driv-

ashore one by one and leave them
lying high and dry upon the beach,
pumping ink and water and with
their long sucker trimmed arms coil

If it proves satisfactory the system

months such a reference number dis

the horse has to undergo is briefly
this: Its upper lip is drawn back
and a portion of the gum above the

an injection OF cocaine. Then a metal
pencil ATTACHED to an electrical bat
terry is employed. In the pencil is a
reservoir filed with indel.Dle ink. At
its pointed end is a tiny hollow nee

shoots in and out with tremendous
rapidity, making tiny punctures in the

Trinity friend told me in the fifties
that Whewelrs evening parties went

cause the undergraduates were expect
ed to remain standing all the time
though he himself sat down whenever
he chose. 1t is also related that. being
shortsighted, he inspected each man
in turn at unpleasantly close quarters.
and it was high crime for any one
to speak until he was spoken to. On
one occasion under the trying scrutiny
an unwary freshman remarked that
the weather was fine. Sir replied the

have any communication to make to
the master of your college you should
make it through your tutor?'"

Protecting Fruit Plants.

By the severe winters the fruit
crop is rendered very uncertain
in many places. This comes from
the frequent alienation of freez-
ing and thawing rather than
from extreme cold, but some
times from long continued cold.
To insure crops of raspberries,
blackberries. grapes, strawber-
ries and peaches every year
without fail, they must be pro-
tected from the cold.
Raspberry plants must be COW
cred every season, if the best re-
suits in growing them are de-
sired. The best time to do this
work is as late as possible before
the ground freezes, preferably
the middle of November.

The Story That Is Told of the English
Colonel Burnaby.
In the biography Of Colonel Fred
Burnaby there is a characteristic
story, told by his friend Lord Binning
of that soldier of herculean frame and
reckless courage:
We were engaged in a football
cavalry barracks, and the verandas
were crowded with onlookers as the
colonel, dressed for London in frock
coat and tall hat, with cigar in his
mouth, came out of the officers quar-
tiers and proceeded slowly across a
corner of the ground, apparently OBJ
livious of the fact that match was in
progress at the time At this moment
our fullback, gigantic Yorkshireman
named Bates, who must have weighed
nearer fifteen than fourteen stone
charging impetuously for the ball.
dashed full into Burnaby. The impact
was terrific, but while the Yorkshire
man, hurled backward by the shock as
though he had collided with a noun
tain, lay gasping on the ground, neither
Burnaby's hat nor the angle of his
cigar was in the smallest degree dis
turbed. In fact. he scarcely seemed
to realize that collision had taken
place. When he did so he removed his
cigar from his mouth and, with his
pleasant smile, said, "Dear me, I do
II TOD
game" The shout of delight which
went up from the verandas was a
thing to remember.

With thy dead encumbering thee.
Thou art night, and thou art doom.
Desolate by an awful tomb.
Dust the greatness. dust the CLEAN
OF thy glory and thy dreami
City, thou art one apart
With gray grief in the heart.
Broken and with violence bent
BY the Titan element,
Weeping that where'er We tread
Stare the dim eyes of the dead!
Sicily, this blossom warm
Of thy beauty rolls in storm,
Rocks in thunder and is lost
Where the tidal seas have tossed
Doom upon her. and her light
Fades with wailing down the night!
Cease. ye cymbals; halt the feet
OF Theocran dancers sweet
Yonder on the sulph'rous air
Floats the lurid giant Despair.
Horror follows, and the land
Rolls in fragments to the strand!
Yet be comforted, dark Grief.
Rushing to thy quick relief
All the old humanity
OF the Christian world, set free
On the wings of Love, makes haste
To repair thy wound and waste!
Time that buries also builds;
Doom that brushes also gilds.
Out Of night the dream of night
Leadeth to the light Of light.
Sister, bowed beside thy sea.
God forgets not such as thee!
