MARK TWAIN AS AN AGRICUL-

How the Humorist Made Farm

Mark Twain never really edited
a farm paper, but he wrote a story,
just the same. telling Of an imaginary
experience along this line.
The editor of the paper was sick
and wanted vacation. Mark agreed
to fill his place while he took rest,
and the editor jumped at the offer.
or course. being humorist, the
new editor had TO be funny. so he
handed out to his readers such valu-
able misinformation as this:
"Turnips should never be pulled;
it Injuries them. 1t Is much better
TO send boy up and let him shake
the tree"
THE guano is fine bird, but great
care is necessary in rearing 1t. 1t
should not be imported earlier than
June or later than September. In
the winter 1t should be kept in a
warm place, where 1t can hatch out
its young"

prefer IL to the gooseberry for the
making OF fruit cake, and who like
wise give II the preference over the
raspberry for feeding cows, as being
more filling and fully as satisfying.
The pumpkin is the only esculent OF
the orange family that will thrive In
the North, except the gourd and one
or two varieties of the squash. But
the custom of planting it in the front
yard with the shrubbery is fast going
out of vogue, for 1t is now generally
conceded that the pumpkin as

But Just at this time the old editor
came back, and his grief was great.
He is supposed to have talked to his
substitute in the following language;

that the directions plainly given on

Perhaps this is so because the bed

How One Man Expressed 1t.
In speaking of such a case a man
said not long ago to me: ct have
never worked as hard at anything in
my life as 1 have at trying to fall in
love with Sally. She is everything in
the world that comes up to my ideal
of perfect wOman-good looking, gra-
cious, we'll bred. intelligent. indus

charming. 1 enjoy her society. but to
save nv life I can't get up one throw
of sentiment over her.
els it not CHASTITY TO think how much

are that some day I shall go crazy

more than we could a wiIding bird

has become cold and caIlous to her,
seeks by thousand little coquetries,
by trying TO make herself look young
again. by attempting to surround him
with more home comforts TO turn him
