Sheep Notes.

The rundown farm is where the
sheep are needed most.
Oilmeal will often prevent indiges-
ton and keep the young sheep on
edge.
Sheep should be given salt every
day. Once a week is not sufficient.
They will not eat too much.
Oats make good ration for sheep
in connection with corn and other
grains and are always eaten with keen
relish
Don't let the sheep get wet; takes
long time to dry out their heavy
coats OF fleece. Provide shelter II
will pay you.
\ small flock of sheep on well con
Quoted farm cannot lose money for
their owner
In going into winter quarters be sure
that every eve is in the best Of con
dition. If auy are below standard
nurse and feed them up at once.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Polished Tables.

Every housekeeper knows how hard
1t is to seep dining table IN good con-
dition, even when it is given the great
est care One reason of this Is that the
surface is polished before the grease is
removed. This Is best done by putting
a little gasoline In mkewarm water
and rubbing the boards with a well
dampened cloth. Rub in circular di-
rection and do not have the cloth wet
enough to have the water stand on the
wood. Wipe until nearly dry; then pol
lsh with a soft flannel and a furniture
polish. This final polishing should be
done with the grain of the wood or 1t
will leave a blurred surface. Rub hard
until the wood Is hot and shining. 1t
is only by hard and constant rubbing
that a table which is In constant use
can be kept free Of bad scars and
marks.

Polo In New Hands,

The objection made by English polo
lists against the management Of games
by the Hurlingham club as being prac-
tically in the hands Of the Millers, the
horse dealers, who furnish all the polo
ponies in England, has resulted in
some radical changes. The English
players have been displeased for some
time because of the arbitrary manage
ment exercised by the Hurlingham
club. 1t Is now announced that Eng
lish teams for all future matches with

lnent club in England and Ireland Will

Mother Natures Quilts.

For the little plants and rootlets. when
the north wind means and grieves,
She brought to keep them cozy a heavy
quilt OF leaves.
To the squirrels, tired of playing all the
long warm summer through,
She gave a quilt of tree holes. the best
thing she could do.
The little future butterflies received, each

A cocoon bedqult. soft as silk, their
bodies to infold.
The woodchucks Mother Nature wrapped

Twas not because Of other things I'm
sure, she found a dearth.
The bears in bedquilt caves she rolled to
keep them warm and snug,
Where they might lie the winter through,
as tight as In rug.
For all her other children, too, she had
some quilts as we'll.
What were they and who had them?

He weighed the tobacco carefully on

those. The difference, Of course, was
