The New Year.

Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud. the frosty light
The year is dying in the night.
Ring out, wild bells and let him die.
Ring out the old: ring in the new.
Ring. happy bells, across the snow.
The year is going. Let him go.
Ring out the grief that saps the mind
For those that here we see no more.
Ring out the feud of rich and poor;
Ring in redress to all mankind
Ring out the want, the care, the sin,
The faithless GOODNESS of the times;
Ring out ring out, my mournful rimes
But ring the fuller minstrel in.
Ring out false pride in place and blood,
The civic SANDER and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right;
Ring in the common love of good
Ring out old shapes of foul disease;
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand wars Of old;
Ring in the thousand years of peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free.
The larger heart, the klndller hand;
Ring out the darkness Of the land;
Ring in the Christ that Is to be-
Alfred Tennyson.

In St Marks churchyard then
They see tie shape arise

And here in slumber lies. ES
His face beneath the close black cap M
Has martial look and grim Y;
On either side his locks fall wide
10 the broad collars rim.
His sleeves are slashed: the velvet coat
Is fashioned Hollandese
Above his fustian breeches, trimmed
With scarf knots at the knees.

After considering many offers, and
after an Investigation Of the company

Professor Holden is known Wher-
ever real agriculture is known. His
whole life is one Of service. He orig

Because the fad has become paSse

~ 7 M TO OuTiSLIudS tllG lHOSL JOY
| ~ Gus annual festival has been
| II the advent of the new year.
| h This has been so ever since
| the Christian era AS far back as the
| history of man can be traced the New
Year day has been an occasion OF
feasting and rejoicing. From the old
| est authentic record it has been trans
| mitted down to our times and is still
observed, The feast was instituted by
/ Numa and was dedicated to Janus,
| who presided over the new year Jan.
! l, 713 3. c.
| In the middle ages it was religiously
observed by the flow Of wine and the
| eating Of baked meats. The cheftains
of the European tribes appointed it
as the day Of receiving their captains
and vasSals Their chief was not adj
verse to receiving some token of re-
| gard from his people to remind him Of
them during the remaining 364 days.
| The people soon learned to consider it
! good form as well as good policy to
| bring with them a substantial remem-
braDce.
Queen Elizabeth made New Years
| day general court occasion, in which
she greeted her loyal subjects and re-
ceived their gifts. 1t was customary
to present Queen Bess with the finest
| raiment procurable. All the courtiers
tried to Guido each other in selecting
the most magnificent textures for their
royal mistress. Sir Walter Raleigh
one New Years morning outstripped
them all by presenting her majesty
with pair Of woven silk hose, the first
ever worn in England.
In northern climes the New Year has
always been one of the chief gala days
of the season. The town folks always
call upon the chief magistrate and
drink his health. The Idea Of paying
New Year calls in this country in a
general way for years was confined to
| New York state, though other states
adopted it and practiced the custom to
a moderate extent The early settlers
Of jolly old New Amsterdam made the
advent day Of the coming year the hap
piest Of the annus. In those primitive
times everybody knew each other from
one end of Manhattan Island to the
other. After paying their grave re-
spects to the governor they visited
each other
When the English came to New York
they continued the ancient custom,
which helped to cement the good fell
lowship that has since prevailed be-
tween the two races. For years the
popularity Of New Year as a day OF
feasting became SO prominent that
Christmas was lost sight Of Year by
year the calling custom grew in favor.
| The young women would try to out
do each other in the sumptuousneSS Of
their table and elegance Of their toilets.
In the beginning Of the last century
the young maidens took pride in the
fact that the clothes they wore and the
tables they set were the work Of their
| own hands. The gallants would start
out early and go over a list Of a score
or more, paying their respects to the
matrons Erst and winding up at the
home of their chief attracter. Every
body who was anybody in those days
dra nix
III fact, it was considered duty he
| owed to society and to his hostess to
drink whenever he was asked and fill
the bumpers up to the brim. AS the
city increased in size the custom in

demonstration farms, and the Nationa!
Corn Exposition. AS head of the ex.
tension department of Iowa State Col.
lege of Agriculture he did work
which, Senator Cummins says. up to
the present time has increased the
wealth of Iowa 100000 900.
The object of the Fl c Service Bu-
reau is the promotion of agricultural
education, and a cooperation which
will tend to raise the whole tone of
commercial, industrial and farm life.
Since agriculture is the basis of pros
perity and progress, naturally farm
problems claim first attention. The aim
Is higher efficiency, both on and off
the farm.
TO do big work big organiza ton
is necessary. Not only the bigness,
but the perfection of the International
organization as we'll appealed to Pro
fessor Holden. The big general agen-
cies, scattered all over the United
States and Canada: the salesmen
travellers and expert machine men:
the 10000 dealers-every one, so far
as possible, is to be made an apostle
of better farming.
For years the International Har-
vester Company has realized the i'm
portance of service IT has spent mil
lions of dollars in the perfection OF la
bor-saving machines, and now the
company is going in for direct service
direct to the farmers, and direct to
the farmers children. that the men
and women Of tomorrow may be mere
capable and so more prosperous than
the men and women of today.
1t is no longer a theory that if We
are to get the most out of life We
must raise more per acre. "lnten-
sive farming" is in the air 1t is the
battle cry Of peace and plenty. But
raising more is the result of mind,
not muscle. We must know. And
not only that, we must know We
know. and know why we know. We
must know good seed from bad, right
cultivation from wrong, and the why's
and Wherefors of climates, soils,
fruits, cattle. horses. poultry, and so
forth
For these things the bureau was
established. But the bureau and
Professor Holden see more than an
average increase of a few bushels
They see a time coming when farmers
will raise twice as many bushels of
corn, wheat and oats to the acre,
and like yields of all other kinds or
farm products They see a time when
farmers and farmers wives and their
children will think more and work
less. Every bushel raised means just
that much profit, and the profits of
the farm promote commerce and in
dustry
After period of good work in Mich
igan agricultural college, better work
at Illinois, and great work at Iowa,
Professor Holden now enters upon a
worlds work While in future Pro
fessor Holden will designate Chicago
As home, he says he is not leaving Iowa
he is merely carrying Iowa to the
rest of the world.

"'Tis we'll" he says and sternly smiles.
'"They hold our memory dear
Nor rust nor moss hath crept across.
Twill last this many year.
Then down the path he strides
And through the iron gate
Where the sage nine men, his councillors,
Their governor await.
Here are Van der Donck and Van Court

triplet more of Vans,
And Hendrick Kip of the naughty lip
And Covert Loockermans
Jan Jansen Dam and Jansen.
OF whom our annals tell
All risen this night their lord to greet
Al sound of the Christmas bell
Nine lusty forms III linsey coats
Pulled sleeves and ample hose!
Each burgher smokes Flemish pipe
To warm his ancient nose.
The smoke wreaths rise like mist,
The smokers all are mute,
Yet all with pipes thrice waving slow
Brave Stuyvesant salute.
Then into ranks they fall
And step out three by three,
And he of the wooden leg and staff
In front walks solemnly.
Along their wonted course
The phantom troop patrol
To see how fares Nieuw Amsterdam
And what the years unroll.
Street after street and mile On mile,
From river bound to bound.
From old st. Marks to Whitehall Point.
They foot the limits round;
From Maiden Lane to Corlear's Hook
The Dutchmen's pypen glow,
But never a word from their lips is heard,
And none their passing know.
Ere the first streak Of dawn

And by vault the nine men halt

Nor garden plot we knew,
And but a paling marks the spot
Where erst my pear tree grew.
Our walks are Wearier still,
Perchance and it were best,
So little OF worth is left on earth,
To break no more our rest
Thus speaks old Petrus doubtfully
And shakes his valiant head,
When on the roofs a sound of hoors,
rafting, pattering tread
The bells of reindeer tinkle--
The Dutchmen plainly spy
st. Nicholas. who drives his team
Across the roof tops nigh.
"Beshrew me for a craven!'
Cries Petrus ''All goes well!
Our patron saint still makes his round
At sound OF thefChristmas bell.
So long as stanch st. Nicholas
Shall guard these houses tall
There shall come no harm from hostile

No evil chance befall!
1.-THE youngens and the metsjes
Shall have their hosen filed;
The butcher and the baker
And every honest guild
Shall merrily thrive and flourish
Good night, and be Of cheer!
We may safely lay US down again
To sleep another year!
Once more the pipes are waved.
Stout Petrus gives the sign,
The misty smoke enfolds them round,
Him and his burghers nine.
All when the cloud has lifted
Have vanished quite away
And the Growing cock and the steeple clock
Proclaim it's Christmas day.
