Snatch the Handkerchief.

The two squads stand fifty feet
apart, and on an Indian club halfway
between is placed a handkerchief. At
the word "Go!" player from each
side runs out to snatch the handker-
chief and get back without being tag
ged by the other. If she succeeds her
opponent becomes her prisoner; If tag
ged she herself becomes the prisoner.
The girl who fails to get the handker-
chief and fails to catch the one who
did becomes prisoner.

their pockets into the cart Then they
pitched in vigorously and helped the

remainder of the scattered fruit. The
apples and pears were soon back in the
cart with not one missing, and the Ital-
ian felt so thankful to the boys that
he presented each one of them with a
large apple. The boys laughed merri-

Prince Olaf. who may some day be
king of Norway, is a little, yellow
haired boy that loves nothing so much
as to play with his pony, Chris Prince
Olaf's father is Danish and his mother
is English, and so the small boy is
both Danish and English as well as
Norwegian. Several months ago he
went to England for visit, and there
he saw his cousins, the children of the
British king, and they all had ponies.
They all could ride we'll This made
Prince Olaf envious He could not
ride. and he did not have a pony to
ride on, anyway SO when he reached
home after his visit in England he
begged his father and mother, the king
and queen of Norway, to give him a
pony. 1t was not long before the little
horse was brought to the royal stables.
and Prince Olaf named him Chris for
no reason that any one knows except
that Chris is a good name. The pony
follows the little prince about like a
dog.

USES OF THE BARLEY CROP.
Nearly Equal to Corn Il Feeding
vaIue-Directions For Preparation.

Nearly Equal to Corn Ia Feeding
vaIue-Directions For Preparation.
Barley is nearly equal to corn in
value 70. feeding purposes. but should
not make up more tnan half Of the
grain ration for horses and cattle. For
the best results in feeding to horses
and cattle it should be crushed or
coarsely ground, as this aids digestion
and also reduces the danger Of injury
to the mouths of the animals from the
boards. For hog feed, simply soaking
the whole grain overnight will suf-
flee. The finest kind of bacon is pro-
duced from feeding ground barley
mixed with skimmilk Barley is also
an excellent feed for sheep. 1t can be
fed whole or crushed.
Barley properly cut ana cured will
furnish a very nutritious hay that is
readily eaten by all kinds Of stock.
When intended for hay 1t should be
sown more thicllly than when intended
for grain. In growing winter barley
for hay the mistake most commonly
made is in letting the crop become too
ripe in the belief that better results
will be secured if the grain is allowed
to fill. This is done at the expense Of
the stem and leaves, as much of the

To meet the requirements Of a
good farmer it is necessary to spend
some Of the winter weather in study
ing the problems Of the farm.
Orchard and Garden.

Those who argue that fruit is uncer-
tain and that the orchard is seldom
profitable do not give an estimate of
the work given their trees. 1t may be
that their orchards do not get much
attention, which, of course, explains
why they are improbable.
Permanent labels for trees and
shrubs may be made from zinc cut
into strips. If the name is written on
the zinc with an ordinary lead pencil
it will prove indelible and will not be
affected by the elements
It is a good idea to plan now for an
evergreen windbreak to protect your
orchard, but do not set the trees now
wait until spring
Store the ladders under cover, but
give them a good coat of paint first
Good garden implements are essen
tial for successful gardening. Mucl
of the benefit and pleasure derived
from work in the garden is missed by
having poor tools. Spend part of the
winter leisure in getting the tools ii
shape.
Prepare the soil for your bedding
plants which are to be planted next
spring You cannot take too much
pains in preparing the soil.
If you nave decided to diversity youl
4 crops carry out the idea by planting
several kinds of fruits. The garden
too should show q nice variety Yor
may specialize if you wish, but be sure
to have something else besides your
speciality.
Get busy with the saw and pruning
shears and clean out every dead and
cankered branch

Pruning in Winter.

Now is the best time to take out

Two farmers who are good
neighbors can save money by ex-
changing use Of machinery. One
man buys one machine, the other
different one, and both machines
are used for all work required on

require two or four horses the
horses work can be exchanged in

DANBURY HATTtRS
JUDGM Nj IS
REVERSED
Famous S232,240 Verdict for
Damages Overturned
UNDER SHERMAN LAW
Circuit Court Of Appeals Finds That
Lower Tribunal Erred In
Directing Verdict

New York, April 1.-THE United
States Circuit Court of Appeals in an
opinion written by Judge Lacombe
and concurred in by Judges Cox and
Noyes, yesterday reversed the judg-
ment in the famous Danbury hatters
case for S232,24O, obtained by d. E.
Loewe & Co, the Danbury hatters,
against the United Hatters of North
America and others, in the Federal
Court in Connecticut.
The action, which was for damages
under the Sherman Antitrust act,
came before the Circuit Court on a
writ of error to review the judgment
of the lower court. The verdict upon
which the judgment was entered was
practically directed by the court, who
left to the jury merely the matter OF
damages, as the only question with
which they could properly concern
themselves" The jury assessed the
damages OF $4,000, which amount in
accordance with the conspiracy pro-
vision of the Sherman law, the court
trebled.
Setting aside the judgment, the Cir
cult Court of Appeals finds the lower
court erred in directing the verdict,
and as there will be a new trial, the
higher court takes occasion to ex-
press its opinion as to the admissible
ity of certain evidence when the case
comes up again,
