Nothing ls In Vain.

Nothing is IN vain
Not a flower blooms to die
Meath the shade or open sky
But is found by sorEe lone eye:
1t will bloom again;
For the thoughts of God shall be
Lasting as eternity.
Not a sweet-voiced bird
Lives arr sings. n flies away
But some heart is gladdened: nay
Not the music of u day
Passes all unheard:
Still there IS an a that hears
All the music Of the years.
Not a kindly deed
That a loving hand has wrought.
Not a soul-born word. to naught
BY the cankering years Is brought:
Not a truthful creed
In for%getfulness long lies.
Il must grow whore falsehond dies.

poses, although they did quite a lot
of work around the farm during the
year.
A pair of horses weighing from
1,400 to 1900 pounds each are heavy
enough for any kind of farm work,
but many farmers prefer horse with
more weight.
In considering the size Of farm
team, 1t Is well to remember before
the purchase Is made what the regu-
lar duties of the team are to be; for
many farmers who need only one pair
Of horses will want to use them on
the road for wagon work as we'll as to
hook up to the carriage on Sundays.
Therefore, they will not require ex-
ira heavy ones, but rather a pair that
are known as "all around" horses, and
If these weigh 1,400 to 1900 pounds
each they will have plenty of size,
and II they are well shaped and have
spirit and snap, they will do good
road work.
1t is surprising how much depends
on the shape and carriage of horse,
even an ordinary work horse, espe-
cially when you want him to do q lit
tie pleasuring with once in a while.
