And It's Such a Little Thing, Too.

MI. Luggins made a wild dash for
an uptown subway express and
missed it by the tenth of an inch.
Then he walked back to the centre of
the platform and stopped.
1--we forgotten something" he
muttered. II know I've forgotten
something"
Now, Mr.. Luggins' arms and peck
cts were SO filed with bundles that 1t
seemed utterly ridiculous for him to
say he had forgotten anything.
YES" he continued; II have for
gotten something. But what in thun-
der it is I can't make out. It's not
Susan's hair ribbon, for that's in my
upper vest pocket; it's not AIMS
tooth paste, for that's in my lower
vest pocket, and it's not Bobbie's col
lars, for I'm sure Z stuffed them in
my hat. Now, what in the dickens
can 1t be? 1t can't be the stove pol
ish, or the picture wire, or the bird
seed, or the sample package Of Peeled
Wheat, or the t6othpicks, for they're
in this bundle; and it can't be the
carpet tacks, or the spool of No. 40
cotton, or the bottle of marking ink,
or the colored postcards, for they're
all in that bundle. Maybe it's-yes,
by heaven, that's it! I've forgotten
to buy the piano!"-Judge's Library.

Farm Notes.

Why is it that so many FARMERS
neglect to provide water for their
hogs? Hogs need a drink OCCASION
ally when they want it, just the same
as anybody else.
An entire grain ration is not so
desirable as a mixed ration of vege-
tables, meat food and grains, the lat
ter both whole and ground.
The scratching shed does not re-
quire to be anything elaborate. Any
old building may be utilized for this
purpose just so there is plenty OF
sunshine, no winds, and a dry floor.
Give hens an extra allowance OF
grain at night, scratching it amongst
the litter, so that the fowls can be
induced to exercise before they get
their regular breakfast.
Give the mother sheep the most
nourishing ration you can. They
need it for milk. Wheat bran is
good; clover hay is nice. Plenty OF
water and some roots now and then
will help out.
The best preventive Of garget Is
clean, careful milking and a vigorous
rubbing and kneading of the affected
part of the udder at the first sign CT
trouble. Three or foul days Of such
treatment will usually ward off the
disease.

The New Strawberry Bed.

Considering the ease with which a
small bed of strawberries can be
grown we wonder why more farmerI
do not grow them,t
We read of renewing old straw
berry beds, which is all right, If it Ii
the best one can do, but owing to in
sect enemies and other causes I would
not recommend the renewal OF an
old bed for the ordinary farmer.
We change the bed from year to
year, here and there over the garden.

pests and fungus diseases as possible.
AS soon as we plow for garden
truck we pillow enough for the new
bed. We lay off the bed in rows foul
feet apart with the garden hand cul.
tivator; in this way we back up a
loose spot every three feet, as we
would for a cabbage plant, only
larger. W. then go to last years bed,
which by the way is young n has
never fruited, and dig up good hardy
plants, and when we can lind enough
of them, we dig those that are not
going to bloom, for they will at once
produce runner instead Of the bloom.
We like to have a hunk of dirt to
each plant. If conditions are favor
able we do not water when setting,
if otherwise we water them as set.
We use a pan or shallow box to
carry the plants from the old to new
bed. If for some reason we delay
our bed until the fruit is set on
plants, we clip off runners and fruit
stems.
We cultivate frequently with hand
hoe and one-horse c%ultivators; good
cultivation means much towards sue
cess.
We throw the runners around for
awhile, then allow them to set, be-
tween tn. rows, and widen as the sea-
son advances. When several run
ners get set, 1t will necessitate pull
ing out by hand some of the weeds.
We experimental some with va
rieties, but soon found two varieties
which suited US and stayed with them.
One of these deserves especial atten-
ton; it is a Seeding which originated
near here, and was named by the
originator, "Hoosier." 1t has very
heavy foliage, is hardy, runners free
ly, very large berries, abundant
bearer, the berries are of excellent
quality, but are strictly a home USE

ship.

leaves of these coffee trees can BID
found very small nectar-secretin1
glands. The ants soon discovered this
and slipped the nectar. Then the
idea seemed to occur to some clever
ant that these nectar glands would
be the best place in the world for the
mealy bugs TO live and grow fat and
in consequence secrete a great deal
more nectar than they would If left
on other parts Of the leaves. But
the nectar glands on the coffee tree
leaves were each too small to &C
commodate even one mealy bug. So
the word was passed around M the
ants grawed the edges of the glands
and enlarged them Sc that each would
support a good-sized mealy bug,
which the ants then carried to 1t.
The mealy bug throve exceedingly.
The gland was enlarged still further
and a whole family of mealy bugs
was raised in the same hole. Thus
a custom grew up and many such
greatly enlarged glands were found
in a few months, the ants reaping a
plentiful supply Of their beloved nee
tar. Here then, said DR.. Howard
was an ant apparently taking advan-
tage of an opportunity which was
new not only to the experience of the
Individual but new to the experience
of the race, and If we adopt the most
reasonable of the definitions Of in
stinct, there seems to have been dis
played intelligence of a high order.

BRIGHT COlOrS.

While as usual the great demand IS
for pale colors in evening coats, the
liking for bright colors, such as cerlse
and coral, leaf greens, lilacs and yell
lows, as we'll as for blacks made
dressy high-colored Innings and ORR
entail embroideries, is markedly ex'
emplifed in the costumes of many.
The pale and neutral colored wraps
are given more character by bands
and other touches of black velvet or
strongly contrasting trimmings, while
in many of even the most delicately
colored wraps the lining is apt to be
in contrasting color, much darker in
than the outer material.

Da;ryinC Not Oyerdone.

There are SO many by-products
from the dairy that the business Of
dairying can never be overdone. Be-
sides milk, butter and cheese, we
have powdered milk, which may be
shipped at little expense and kept for
weeks in good condition, and other
constituents of milk which are being
exploited in commercial ways for the
manufacture of artificial ivory, paints
and a good many other commodities
that until recently have never been
