Winter Care of CABBAGE.

Winter Care Of Cabbage.
: How deeply should cabbage plants
be covered where the ground some
times freezes three and four feet?
Does it hurt cabbage to freeze? Should
plants be taken up before freezing in
the autumn? How early in the spring
should they be set out? These ques-
lions are answered by Linnaeus Allen
OF Nassau county, N. Y, as follows: "
Where the ground freezes three and
four feet deep it will be necessary to
plow up the cabbage after trench
Ing so that the heads will be covered
with at least foot Of soil. On top
of this should be heavy mulch of
cOrnstalks or other suitable material.
1t does not hurt cabbage to be frozen
In the trenches provided it remains
frozen for a long time. What hurts
it is to be thawed and then frozen
several times.
The plants should be taken up and
put in the trenches before the soil be-
comes frozen too hard to work easily.
Two or three heavy frosts will not
hurt the plants. nor would reason
able amount of freezing. except that
the heads will bruise easily when
frozen, and this will cause rot.
If you wish to put the cabbage away
tor seed growing next spring the
heads should be- set out as soon as the
ground can be put in good condition
after the frost is out.

The Game Of Life.

Life is game, we say, and from
time to time we urge one another to
play the game fair and to finish. In
this reference, we must remember that
the zest of game consists in ones
skill to overcome opposition. An OPP
Sponent who fails to call forth our best
endeavor deadens all interest in the
sport, whatever it may be. A one-sided
contest means lose playing and flag
cling zeal; on the other hand, the
more skilled and alert an adversary,
the more resourceful and aggressive
our game. In the contests of life where
there Is no worthy competitor, there
can be but slight achievement and lit
tie glory. The uphill game, however.
which is won through no adventurous
aid of favor or of fortune, but solely
upon It's merits and by stubborn per-
sistence, brings glow of satisfaction
which is wholly unknown in the tri-
umph Of an easy victory. We do not
care to play with novice, we demand
the rigor Of the game, and free scope
for the display OF our powers. It Is
possible, therefore, to meet the oppo-
sition which life holds for us, IN the
spirit OF adventure, and, like the
knights OF old, ride forth to meet the
foe with high hope and the Joy Of bat.

The LIMIT OF CAUTIOUSNESs
Lkeryman Demands Proof of Honesty
from Man Who Would Rescue
Fire-Trapped Horses.

The man who refused to be saved
from drowning because he had never
been introduced to his would-be res
cuer was an incorrigible bohemian
compared with the liveryman the COM
mercial traveller met on his last trip
west.
One night the livery stable caught
fire. The stable was old, the fire had
made considerable Roadway before
the alarm was turned in, and it
seemed inevitable that most of the
horses must perish. To the liveryman
who stood in the street cursing anG
vringing his hands an athletic
stranger rushed up and said:
Tell me in what part of the build.
Ing your best horses are stabbed and
| will save some of them"
The liveryman ceased lamenting
and eyed the stranger suspiciously.
Sir" said he, can you produce
proof that you are square in your
horse deals?"
Square hell" said the stranger and
dashed into the stable. With the as
sstance of a fireman he saved five
horses, but not until they were safely
stabbed elsewhere did the liveryman
cease to suspect the stranger OF
hOrse-stealing.

There were heaps and heaps of chest

She had never gathered chestnuts.

about the tips and spoils they extract

the girl, and she picked up her basket
and tripped away.
"Impudent-very, very impudent,"
muttered the young man as he watched
her disappear.
And it was four weeks later that
they faced each other in the judges
city residence, where young Mr.. Spen-
Ger had dropped in with his parent to
call on the father and be introduced
to the daughter.
"Why-why-" began the young
man. as he stared at the young lady
before him.
"Why-why not?" she replied with
laugh you didn't hit me with that
club. and you released me and didn't
have me arrested, and even If you
didn't see me home I'm charmed to
meet you"
"Eh, Ell? Something here. Billy"
chuckled the father.
Looks like it. Tom. old boy" was
the reply.
And a long time later, when the
colonel limited to the judge that his
son was going to call on him to ask
a very delicate question, the judge
smiled and answered:
