Farming is beginning to be- a pro-
fession, in fact, is one, and as such
a large fund of information has been
worked out A good deal OF it has
been gathered and worked up into
books on farm subjects than buying

of information that is important; in
fact, we might say, essential to the
farmer; as farming is something that
must be done in . certain way to
meet with success. A good deal of
Information comes thru experience,
but it Is a very expensive way and
then again there are Z good many
things that We cannot learn even in
that way. - .,..e-

There is even an easier way to GET
books on far msubjects than buying
them and that is from the public L.
brary commission at Bismarck They
have so far prepared four sets Of
books on agriculture that can be h2a
by any community without cost Any
one who is DESTROYS of having an agrl-
Icultural library right at home should
write to the commission. After hav-
ing read the books that comes in 4
|set, varying from ~ to IA, there will
likely be some one that will prove
Of exceptional value. This one should
be bought and in reading it is should
be marked. In this way one can very
easily turn to passages that have
proven of special interest and that
contain facts that one would likely
| want to turn to again. A few good
books should be possessed by every
one. They represent the best that
men have thought and done, and are
guides that one cannot afford to be
without. -

bound by the laws of his own being
and by those Of his social relations to
cultivate the virtue of cheerfulness as.

SOCIETY FLYING THE NEEDLE
Most Feminine Of implements Comes
Into Fashion Again Chiefly
as" Rest Cure"

Those WHO are quick to observe
charges in the moods and tastes OF
society Will tell you," says a writer
IN the Lady's Pretoria, that the doing
OF nre needlework is growing into
great favor with even the most fash.
1onable Of our mondaines, whose own
fingers are producing work that is
fully equal to the best specimens of
their much lauded and perhaps over
lauced grandmothers.
"A lady who has had the honor to
be the tnstructress OF royalty in this
craft says that hundreds come to her
for counsel where tens came but a
few years ago. The cause Of this
reversion to the pursuits of a more
placid age ID not difficult to discover.
Such an occupation becomes virtually
a rest cure in this epoch of rush
and motor cars. and that is why many
OF those who have been the most in.
deiatigable seekers after novelty and
excitement are now among the most
in' E'"ious Penelopes of society.
H. rhythmic movement that &C.
Ger 'anies the plying of the needle is
peculiarly soothing to the nerves. and
produces much the same effect as the
prayers Of the Orientals, with their
swayiog to and fro and their ap-
parently vain repetitions. 1t is a mis-.
take 20 suppose that needle work ia
injurious to the eyesight Old needle

RELICS FROM ANCIENT CITY
Eggs Many Centuries Old Attract the
Most Attention From Visiting
Tourists.

BaIaclava. in the Crimea, the scene
OF the charge of the Light Brigade
mas In recent years been discovered
to be the site OF an ancient Greek
city. Much Of this buried town, which
ID believed to be the Chersonesus
Taurica, the scene Of Euripides' Iphi.
8enia In Tauris. has been excavated
with most interesting results.
Besides the ruins of temples and of
homes there have been found many
things that would Indicate that the
city was abandoned hurriedly. Money
was left scattered on floors, and bits
OF bread and other food were found
In disordered array.
Near stone canal was found an an.
cient hens nest. wherein were six
eggs which probably dated back to a
period before the birth of Christ.
Three had been broken by falling
earth. and two smashed to atoms, but
one was c;iite whole, with a dried-up
yolk inside It. Somecareless house.
wife had failed to keep track OF a pul.
let.
Thousands OF Russian tourists visit
the museum at Balaclava. and, as
these eggs attract more attention
than all the marbles and other fine
specimens. the authorities have fitted
up what they called an "archaelogica,
punet.' In glass case are the re.
mains OF the eggs. the bits OF bread.
grain, and many other reminders OF
Greek cookery. and about this the
tourists may be found grouped at al!
times Of the day. more impressed than
by anything else in the place.-Harp.

CARVED OUT HIGH POSITION
Wonderful Rlse Of Sir Ernest cassei
From obseurity to Companion
OF Monarehs.

Sir Ernest Cassel. one Of King Ed
wards hosts at Biarritz. has had a
career full Of romance. the romance
of the self-made man. It seems like
fairy tale that the unknown lad of
the '7Os should now be the friend and
counsellor Of the king OF England and
the German emperor.
1t Is rumored that he is one OF the
six men who move in the mysterious
background Of the government of Eng.
land. says the Gert!eworap He has
been the builder of his own fortune.
Money has grown under bis hands.
and banks and railways have made
his vast riches.
One Of the most dramatic moments
In his career was Boer war Incl
dent. The British government stood
In need Of big sum at short notice.
It was obtained by Sir Ernest in three
hours. Luck seems not to attend him
on the turf, although he once won the
Two Thousand.
Much has been written on Brook
house, his Park Lane residence, but
there has been scant mention of the
Turkish baths which occupy part Of
the ground floor. nor of the marvellous
range Of kitchens. There are six of
these, with marble floors and walls,
and they include pastry kitchens. grill.
ing, roasting and boiling kitchens, a
vegetable kitchen and a room for fruit
and flowers.

HOOKED TROUT; LANDED COW
Humorous Happening to English Dis
elple Of the Immortal
lx7ak Walton.

An incident of q somewhat amusing
nature was Witnessed q few days ago
near the Cover bridge, LlanrN st.
says the London Field. It appears that
q visitor armed with rod and line was
plying the gentle art and enticing the
Willy trout by insinuating his dies on
the placid surface Of the deep pool
which forms that portion of the Con-
way river.
ABOVE him on a high bank stood a
COW Suu-eniy big trout ros~ sine
u nash and secured one Of the flies.
with the result that the reel imme-
diately began to whirr.
The angler. with galvanic sudden
ness. jumped back and struck. His
unexpected maneuver. however. star
tied the cow, with the result that she
shpped and with a somersault and a
heartrending "Moo!" fell with a
mighty splash into the pool beneath.
Inc rod was st{nck- from the
anglers hand and after a few spas
modic movements fioated gently down
stream. while the trout, adapting him
SELF to such favorable opportunity. dis.
o-o~N SAS ihuiSSbllUlG HOCh0Ty Ou
the hook and dashed out Of the zone
OF danger and turmoil. The angler,
who had undergone the pleasures of
a generous shower bath, having col
iected his scattered thoughts and con-
Vinced himself that he was not inn
pllcated In the throes Of a violent
earthquake. hurled a torrent Of theo-
logical terms on the innocent COW,
which was making futile efforts to
regain terra firma.
II soon became evident, however,
that the animal was drowning. so the
angler, with the generosity OF his
Kind called for assistance, and ulti.
TPtely the half-drowned COW was
rescued by means of ropes. 1t is an.
ticipated that the angler when he
next visits his club in England will
regale the company with "reminiscences
OF his fishing exploit in the Conway
"hen he hooked a trout and landed a
cow.
