THE EOURTH OF JULY.

THE FOURTH OF JULY.
Gee whiz!
What great big man Uncle Sam
is!
And what
A lot
He has done
Since he was begun!
And why?
Because it was on the Fourth of
July
That he began.
His plan
OF stepping out
without a doubt
That if he waded right in
He'd win!
And, by Zucks, so far,
Hasn't he got thar?
And that amt all.
He amt small
At all
And all
Of the western terrestrial ball
That amt otherwise engaged he
Will look after. See?
And some that is
AS, for instance, that Spanish
biz.
And why?
Because it's the Fourth of July,
The greatest day
On earth! And, say,
When Freedom leads the way
She waves
She waves
The Fourth of July at slaves,
And they shake off the shackles
then
And become men!
And why?
Because it's the Fourth Of July!
Gee whiz,
What a great day it is!
Sizz!
Fizz!
Whiz!
What glory day it is!
Let the cannon roar
From ship and shore.
Let the eagle scream
by lake ana stream.
Let us march with a tread
That will wake the dead.
Let the bands play
All day
And sweep the sky
With the flags on hand!
And why?
Because it's the Fourth of July!
Gee whiz,
What tremendous, stupendous,
Perpetual, perennial, pyrotechni
cal, indestructible,
Indescribable, inimitable, incandes
cent, ebullient
And enthusiastic day it is!
And why?
Because it's the Fourth of July!

HIS PROTEST.

The boy held the firecracker too
long. When it shattered itself it
burned his thumb.
He howled with pain and thrust
the wounded member into his mouth.
: 1--WE are getting too much govern
ment in this country" he presently
cried. THAT order to squelch the
premature fireworks has put me all
out of practice"
And he looked long and tenderly
at his blistered thumb.

LITTLE WILLIE ON THE FOURTH.

He was all here in the morning
When forth from his home he set
out,
Safeguarded by many warning
Which he his forgetting, no doubt.
His state of completeness was pleas
ant
When for tirew orks he started to
roam.
This is the question at present:
How much of him's coming back
home?
Will there be fingers found missing?
Will he have all of his toes?
His mouth, is it still straight for
kissing?
Has he altered the shape of his
nose?
'Tis a moment for waiting and guess
ing.
Are we victorors ore are we bereft? /?
This is the question that's pressing
How much of dear Willie is left?

READY FOR THE FOURTH.

Blow the fife and beat the drums!
The nations glorious birthday comes.
Land of the brave, home of the free,
Won't we celebrate? Hully gee!
We've been ready a week or more.
Mothers laid in double store
Arnica, bandages, oil and lotions,
Plaster and pills and soothing po-
tions.
Everywhere that a fellow turns
He trips on something that's good
for burns.
Mother says with pride that we
Are the readiest patriots you could
see.
Fathers bought crutches and wood
en- legs,
Some of his children must lose their
pegs.
But legs are trif1es, says dad, says
he,
When lost in the cause of liberty.
And as for a finger, ear or eye,
They're nothing at all on the Fourth
of July.
Granddad is ready, too, you bet,
With everything that it's wise to
get
Double insurance-our house is
wood
A cute little monument, all to the
good,
To place DER the one whose happy
lot
May lead to rest in our burial plot.
He's DID, is granddad, but never says
die,
Except, of course, on the Fourth of
July.
Blow the fife and bang the drum,
Light the fuse and let 'er come!

JULY 4.

Spread your bunting; hang your
wreaths;
Let your banners be unfurled.
Shout until the welkin seethes
All about the deafened world.
Get your old time speeches out,
Cheer until you split the skies,
But be careful while you spout
OF your eyes.
Drag the ancient cannon forth.
Load it to the muzzles brim.
Let the east, south, west and north
Echo with it's blim-blam-blim!
Let the crackers hiss and spit,
Rocket sticks come down kerplunk,
But be careful how you sit
On the punk.
Let the Roman candles fare
All the darkened heavens through.
Let the mortars fill the air
Full of stars red, white and blue.
Let the fluent red lights flow.
Dimming both the moon and sun,
But be careful how you blow
Down your gun.
Roar, rejoice and speechify.
Go through all the bag of tricks
With which now we glorify
Heroes of old seventy-six,
But, no matter what your glee
Mid the roar of bursting bombs,
Careful, oh, most careful be
OF your thumbs!
Liberty blessing is
Worthy to be glorified,
Worthy of the fiery whiz
OF nation full of pride,
But it seems a bauble vain
Empty, useless thing of chance,
When there follows in itS train.
An ambulance!

HAY and FeedstuTs

The circular of SOmers & Co. SAYS:
Receipts of hay for the last week have been
$3.50 tons, in comparison with 1850 for the
week previous. In spite of these heavy arrivals
prices have been firm for all grades This condi-
tlol or affairs is somewhat contrary to the idea
of many, for ii was presumed that the continu-
Gus rain would give enough assurance for a good
crop next season to cause country holders of hay
to be willing to dispose of their stocks at the
high prices which now prevailing The fact
that we have experienced no decline shows most
conclusiYely that there is very little hay on
storage in the country in first hands and that
available stocks light. The general opinion
seems to be that prices will continue high
right up TO the time hay is available, but
that will see sudden drop as soon as this
new hay is marketable. for reports come to US
from all over the state that an immense acreage
has been sown for hay and that all prospects are
for good yield.
Alfalfa is in very good demand, top prices
being easily realized. Stocks of this hay are
very light in the country, and. even though grass
for material decline in the price of alfalfa. for

no grass supply will consume present stocks.
Very little straw Is coming in but the de-
mand is exceedingly light and prices weak"
Mealfalfa is higher. Otherwise all descrip-
lions under this head remain as before Quilted.
