THE SERMON OF ST. FRANCIS.

Up scared the lark into the air,
A shaft of song, a winged prayer,
AS if a soul, released from pain,
Were flying back to heaven again.
st. Francis heard; it was to him
An emblem of the Seraphim;
The upward motion of the fire,
The light, the heat, the hearts desire
Around Assists convent gate
The birds, Gods poor who cannot
wait,
From moor and mere and darksome
wood
Came f1ocking for their dole of food.
30 brother BIRDS" st. Francis said,
eye come to me and ask for bread,
But not with bread alone today
Shall We be fed and sent away.
eye shall be fed, We happy birds,
With mama of celestial words;
Not mine, though mine they seem tc
be,
Not mine, though they be spok'n
through me.
80 doubly are We bound to praise
The great Creator in your lays;
He giveth you your plumes of down,
Your crimson hoods, your cloaks o.
brown.
"He giveth you your wings to fly
And breathe a purer air on high,
And careth for you everywhere,
Who for yourselves so little care!"

With fiutter of swift wings and songs
Together rose the feathered throngs,
And singing, scattered far apart;
Deep peace was in st. Francis heart.
He knew not of the brotherhood
His homily had understood;
He kneW-he knew that to One ear
The meaning of his words was clear.

A CHRISTMAS CAROL.

The moon that now is shining
In skies so blue and bright,
Shone ages since on shepherds
Who watched their fiocks by night;
There was no sound upon the earth,
The azure air was still,
The sheep in quiet clusters lay
Upon the grassy hill.
But the Star that shone in Bethlehem
Shines still, and shall not cease,
And we listen still to the tidings
OF glory and of Peace.

MUCH INTEREST IN THE
SAVOLAINEN AUCTION SALE

AS the great auction sale at the
Savolainen Jewelry establishment pro-
crosses many humorous incidents &C.
cur which are amusing to the bidders
as we'll as Mr.. Jalonack, the auc-
tioneer, who is by the way one OF the
best mixers and most competent men
in his line of business. Yesterday
as the interest was growing greater
and greater owing to the anxious bid
ding for certain watch it was fin
ally knocked off to an elderly gentle
man who had been bidding on watches
quite bit and was so determined to
get bargain that he was extremely
nervous over his purchase. After
finally mastering up enought nerve
to settle he left the store still un-
decided whether or not he got bar
gain.
This afternoon during one Of the
busiest sessions of the sale this same
nervous man came rushing up to the
auctioneer and asked him If he re-
membered the watch he sold him q
day or so ago. The auctioneer being
over rushed with bidders just at that
time did not give him the attention
he desired but the little man demand
ed his attention and finally Mr.. Jalo-
mack stopped the sale. ...
"Weu, what is it Mr....-...-...? Talk
quick; these people are anxious ia
buy these articles"
Say; you know that watch you
sold1n'
Yes, yes, I sold a good many
watches!"
well, I mean the one you sold me
a day or so ago?"
yes, yes, go ahead. remember
the one you bought. It was a $1,000
watch and you got it for $780,"

HAY MAKING

There are two chief factors n
the making Of good hay, aside
from the crop itself. First. it
should be cut in proper season,
and second, it should be gotten in
the NOW or stack with its natural
color but little removed. Hay that
is allowed to stand till the seed is
formed, becomes woody and less
digestalble, and this also takes
place when it is dried too much in
the sWath and rained upon. Hay
that is rained upon after it is par
TALLY or wholly cured loOses much
of its food substances. It is wash
ed out. Medium red clover should
be cut when in FUN bloom. 1t
makes the best hay at that stage
and produces a Larger second crop.
Alsike clover may be allowed to
stand till the heads are half
broWu-.as it does not produce two
crops in the same season. Tim
othy should be cut for dairy COWS
after the first bloom. For horses
it may be allowed to stand some
later.
On the Experiment. Farm we
practice getting hay in the loft
the day after it is cut, unless pre-
vented by rain. We start the
mower in the morning and cut
only what can be hauled in the
next afternoon. After the dew
is off the next morning the, hay
is raked : into windows. Very
heavy clover is tedded or worked
over with the fork before raking
i up. This is done I'M the after
noon the day it is cut, If the
weather is favorable. When rak-
ed, it is left in the Window and
punched with fork into small
piles-just such as can be- Lifted
on the wagon in one forktull.
Large piles of heavy clover hay
is hard to- handle. In small piles
it not only handles more easily,
but it cures faster.
When danger Of rain the nay
may be punched with the rake and
cooked up. If clover hay is put
in the cock quite green it will shed
water. Ii left in the swath till
dry it will not shed water I'M the
cock. Get the hay up ON the green
side. Hay is lessened in value far
more by overcoming than by put
ting in too green.
The natral moisture in hay af-
ter it is partly cured causees but
little Trouble, but rain or dew
should be avoided ON the hay when
it is put in. There is possible
danger of spontaneous combustion
when green hay is put up that is
wet with RAIN or dew.
In putting in hay that is ON the
green side it should be moved
loosely, not packed down moro
than is possible, and it should
never be allowed to lie as dropped
by the hayfork, but distributed
evenly.
Glover haying should be under
way this season July 10th. Some
fields of clover are ready for the
mower now, June 80.
Try haying earlier. this season
and putting the hay up greener.
Most hay is over mature and over
cured.
