Lord Loveland, hardly knowing what
he said or did in the persistent night
mare from which he could not wake,
called the waiter to him from ambush
behind his chair. The man came, with
eyes cast patiently down, not to meet
the angry blaze turned dangerously
upon him.
"There must be some mistake here"
said Loveland, folding up the paper
and replacing the three sheets in the
envelope with fingers that We're not
quite steady. This can't be for me.
You see, there's no name on the thing.

Give the envelope back to whoever

Yes sir" The waiter obediently
took charge of the offensive envelope
and ambed away with it to confer at
distance with the person from whom
II had been received five minutes ago.
There were a few gestures, a few

Lord Loveland's table together.

Governor Wesley has received word

At a cost of ten thousand dollars

red space at the show. Each of the
seven states will have a space of Tiff.

The governor has been asked to

throughout the Northwest
have been such this spring.
that it is apparent a short
hay crop is certain and the
farmer and stock raiser must
begin now to consider the
question Of feed for his cat u
tie the coming fall and win
ter. The surest, aud in fact
the only substitute for hay
is corn fodder, and to get
the best results from fodder
it should be fed in the form
of ensilage.
The farmer who has a silo
need not let the prospect Of
a short hay crop worry him,
as a few acres planted to
corn will provide abundant
feed, or the best kind for
his live stock.
+. To the farmer who does
not have a silo, we say, get
busy and prepare to con-, 81

fields.
A stave silo is not expen- /
sive, is easily erected and
will pay for itself in one
year.
