St. Kilda

Macleod of Macleod intends to sell
the island of st. Kilda. The lonely ISL
and lies out in the Atlantic about so
miles west of the Lewis. 1t has under a
hundred inhabitants, whose ways are
somewhat primitive. A steamer always
goes in time for the bird nesting, and
during the summer months another
steamer sails on special dates. The
cliffs, which beat back the whole force
of the Atlantic, are of stupendous
height. One OF them, Conachar, is about
300 feet high and is cut down almost
perpendicularly to the waters edge.
Wild fowlIng is the staple industry, and
a party of islanders have killed as many
as 1900 solan geese in a night, The
air OF st. Kilda has been described as
full OF feathered animals; the sea is
covered with them, the houses are or
namented by them, the ground is
speckled with them like howery
meadow In May, the women look like
feathered Mercuries, for their shoes are
made OF a gannets skin; everything
smells OF feathers. Court Journal.

Little Evelyn was rather tired, but
her mother having asked her to carry
basket of ,blackberries to her Aunt
Mary. she willingly consented to go.
Miss Mary lived about four blocks
down the avenue in one of the most
charming little bungalows you ever
saw 1t was all white except It's red
window stills and gray roof, which
made 1t look very neat and pretty.
Around the house was a little garden,
consisting of roses, violets. lilies and
other pretty flowers.
AS it was still very early in the
afternoon, Evelyn took her time about
going and it was almost o'clock be-
fore she reached the end of her jour
ney. She found her aunt sitting on
the porch reading book, which must
have been very interesting as she did
not notice Evelyn until a slight cough
made her aware that there was some
one else beside herself on the little
porch.
Good day, aunty," said the little girl
laughingly. Mamma sent you some nice
berries, and OH it's so warm, may rest
awhile?
Good day, my DEAR responded her
aunt, (who was in one Of her most
amiable moods) come right in and
have some fresh candy. I just made it
this noon" The child was willing and
together they entered the little white
house.
On leaving, Evelyn was given large
mince pie which she was told was for
her mamma in reward for the berries.

A Bio Shortage In Seeds.

From almost all sections comes the re.
port OF frightfnl shortages in seed corns;
also in some varieties OF seed barley,
oats, rye, wheat, flax, cloyers and the
early varieties of potatoes.
This Is particularly noticeable In the
great corn and cat and potato growing
states.
Thus: The great states of Nebraska and
Iowa are suffering from a dearth OF seed
corn as never before.
The wide-awake farmers in these and
other states are placing their orders early
for above seeds in order to be on the safe
side, and we can but urge farmers to
write at once to the John A. Salzer SEED
Co. Box 1S2, La Crosse, Wis, for their
farm seed and corn catalogue.
The magnitude of the business OF this
long established firm can be somewhat
estimated when one knows that in ordi-
larry years they sell:
5000 bushels of elegant seed corn.
10000 bushels of seed potatoes.
ZOO bushels Of seed oats.
5000 bushels OF seed wheat.
100 900 bushels of pure clover and timo-
thy seeds. together with an endless
amount Of other farm seeds and yege-
table seeds, such as onions, cabbages, car
rots, peas, beans, lettuce. radlshes, toma-
