MAKING PAPER ROSES.

Some Of the ladies in our church
intend to hold a fair, and about ten
Junior Endeavor girls will help to
make it a success. We decided to
make a rose garden of paper roses,
and at the end Of each rose attach an
article which is to be sold for five
cents.
I purchased some tissue paper and
wire, asked the girls to bring their
scissors and come to my home on
Thursday afternoon, which they
promptly did.
We sat on the floor, Indian fashion,
and worked real hard, but the wire
soon disappeared, and after a little
difficulty we found some picture wire,
which after being UNFINISHED served
the purpose very we'll.
The position in which we were sit
ting soon made our feet Ego to Sleep

FED BY THE BOTTLE.

About three months ago I was
much surprised on coming home from
school to find that I was the possessor
of four puppies. I was to be disap-
pointed, however, for next morning
I was uniformed that during the night
the mother dog had died.
Who should take care of the or
phans? They were only a day old
too young to take are of themselves.
It was then that I thought of raising
them by the bottle. I bought some
bottles, filled them with warm milk
and put them in a convenient position
in the puppies box. They began to
sneeZe and to sputter in a very queer
and discouraging manner. But one
adventurous little puppy soon discov-
cred that the milk was worth taking,
and his three brothers were soon of
the same opinion.
You can be sure that they did not
have to starve, for a few yelps always
brought a half dozen people to them,
and the puppies would be over
whelmed with milk.
Three months later there were four
frisky little puppies running about
and chasing n another on the lawn.
These were not everyday puppies, but
puppies brought up by the bottle.-

Success With Sheen.

The sire and the dam are the basis
of the flock, but the lamb is the basis
of the sheep.
Without the lamb there would be
no sheep and consequently no profit
in the sheep breeding business.
Thus it is readily understood how
very Important it is that every lamb
born in the flock be kept alive and
grown into a salable animal, whether
as a mutton lamb or a mature sheep.
This principle Of flock management
must be thoroughly impressed on the
mind, and every feature Of lamb rails
ing be carefully studied so that this
period be approached with every
thing in readiness to save the lambs.
The sheep raiser who does not
count each lamb as it comes into the
world worth it's price at weaving time
should go into some other business.
With the lamb a constant growth
is desirable, SO it is quite important
that it be literally supplied at the
outset, and that this be kept up if
one would succeed as a sheep raiser.

Sour Cherries For Profit.

My early paintings of cherries were
of both sweet and sour varieties, but
I would be much better off in money
if I had set out nothing but the sour
kinds like the Richmond. Such kinds
bear very young and seldom fail of e
good crop. If starting again. I would
plant nothing but Richmond. Mont
morency and Morrello, which keep up
the season from early to late and sup
ply sure crops of marketable cherries
which net more per tree than other
kinds, taking one year with another.
After five years I reckon the income
of an acre would be eight or ten per
cent. on $500. Cherries require less
cultivation and pruning than other
tree fruits, producing as well in sod
land of good fertility as elsewhere.
The fertilizer most needed seems to
be potash. plant them on high, dry
land. They do we'll in poultry yards.

Economical

It is doubtful whether unlimited
pasture may be considered econom-
ical, except perhaps for brood sows.
The proper amount of land to give
over to pasture must necessarily vary
according to it's quality and other To-
cal considerations, and the length of
time the pasture will sustain hogs
likewise is dependent upon the CHI
mate, quality of the crop, age and
number of the animals and other va
rying conditions. For an average it
may be said that an acre Of red clover
should support six to ten hogs for
three or four months. Alfalfa, the
leading pasture plant for swine,
should provide, if of vigorous growth,
for twelve to twenty-five animals per
acre, but an alfalfa stand should not
be grazed by so many hogs that now
ing will not be necessary for keeping
it in the best condition. The practice
with alfalfa should be to pasture few
er hogs than will be able to keep back
a rank or woody growth.-From Co.

Morals, Etc.

A moral problem may sometimes
be got around by calling it something
else. With the tariff, for instance,
we have no serious difficulty, where
we insist on calling it an economic
problem merely.
Many a man whose hand the tar
if puts in his neighbours pocket
wouldn't do anything immoral for
the world; and when, by a judicious
and timely confusion of terms, we
enable such a man to stay in the
game and do his share for progress
and prosperity, we achieve results
of the most solidly profitable char
acter.
The bane of the business, is of
course, those politicians, who are
thoroughly selfish and who talk too
much besides.-Puck.

Of the great army of brave women
that had gone out to battle in the
early morning there survived at even
ing only the merest remnant. The
struggle had been fierce all along the
line. We'll sell u lives dearly,
however," they exclaimed, and reso-
lutely took their final stand. And
when the opposing hosts, women like
wise, heard that cry Of despair their
onset in something lost its fervor.

being closed out cheap" they pro-
tested discontentedly, and at length

Why Shirts Wear Out.

It cannot be said that the S Of
machinery in laundries has been re-
garded by the general public as an
unmixed blessing. We believe, how
ever, that very much of the ill-feel-
ing that exists should not be charged
to the machinery, but to the careless
use of it, and probably also very
largely to the use of the strong chem
icals which made their appearance
about the same time as laundry ma
chinery.-Engineering.
