Unknown Who First Imported Rabbits

In. the carly days of Australian set

His Ambitious Wife
BY NELSON MAXWELL
.s"s-s.s-O Ots"s"e"s"s"s'

"And how do you stand on the labor
question:?
Il look upon the laborer as a man and
a brother. If elected shall do all in my
power to advance his interests at the eX-
pense of his employers"
Mr.. Thomas was indignant What
pothouse politician put that in my
MOUTH he said. to his wife. Il would
be an idiot to advance the laborer's
interest at the expense of his employ
err Where would the laborer be if
his employer were degraded?'
mo pothouse politician wrote it, my
dear / was informed that your views
would be required, and | put that i'll
myself. You must stand well with
the laborer Or you will be defeated
Then came demands for more funds
Mr.. Thomas refused, but one days bat
tie with his wife was sufficient, and he
gave another check and another and
another till most of his capital was in
vested in his candidacy for an Office he
didn't want. But the browning agony
was the abuse heaped upon him by the
opposition. When he read the follow
ing he tainted dead away:
There is a man just now prominent be-
fore the public who, it is rumored, if he
had his just deserts would be behind bars
rather than soliciting the votes of his
countrymen. Could the opposition sink
lower than nominate one who has sought
by every means in his power to throw
dust about his past? Only jury of those
countrymen could throw a searchlight
+lo+ I,0 TO
AS soon as Thomas could pull him
self together he went to the newspa
per office and demanded to see the
man who wrote the article. You
mustn't mind little thing like that,
Mr.. Thomas" said the scribbler, smil
ing. "They say alrs fair in love and
war. They forgot to put in politics.
But I'll have the law of you" "Oh,
we haven't mentioned you. Good day,
Mr.. Thomas. Hope you'll meet with
success"
The morning of the 4th of November
with an eclat that diverted attention
from the minor Offices Mr.. Thomas,
looking in his morning paper for his
| record, saw III one corner:
Thompson Thomas defeated for
mayor of -. Certain presidential votes
were needed, and some 5000 that would
have elected Thomas were traded for the
presidential candidate.
Mr.. Thomas married life was of
short duration. His wife, who had
swooped down upon him at the proper
time to nominate him for office, the
morning after his defeat left him to
enter other fields of ambition. She
had come like a Kansas cyclone, ragged
fercely. then passed on, leaving a
wreck behind her. Mr.. Thomas gath
cred up the fragments and found there
was just enough left to pay the ex-
penses of a divorce. This he obtained,
then went to work as proOfreader in
publishing house.

Corn SiIaqe Without Ears.

How about it?' asks subscriber OF

when the corn is in the best con-
dition for the silo the ears are not
ripe enough to store anywhere but in
the silo, and if the ears are ripe
enough to store out of the silo the
plant has become hard and indigesti-
BILE and will not cure into good silage
unless water is put on it, and as rule
the whole proceeding is Improbable.
There may be exceptions, but as a
rule the entire plant and ear should go
into the silO as soon as the starch of
the kernel assumes the doughty condi-
ton. Thus handled you get the most
value out of it,

covered with Il foot or so of snow and
frozen hard, i'll which case little pot
ting soil may be purchased of Il florist
or scotsman. When put into the boxes
it should be just moist enough to crum-
bic i'll the hand. If coarse or lumpy 1t
ought to be sifted. Very fine seeds
may be Sprinkled lightly on the earth
and pressed i'll with miniature tam
per. Larger seeds need to have little
soil sifted over them, and a piece of
wire fly screening with the edges bent
up will serve for sieve. Still coarser
seeds should be planted in drills.
When the seeds are in place the soil
should be firmed with the tamper
which is merely a small piece of smooth
board with a handle nailed to it. Some
people use a brick which has BEEN wet
so that the earth will not stick to it.
This firming of the soil is very impor-
tant in order to insure quick germina-
ton.
Water must be given next, but with
the greatest care, if it is applied to
the surface as there is danger of the
seeds being washed out. 1t is good
plan to use florists atOmiZer or
watering can with Il very fine rose
as the nozzle is called.
An even better plan is to set the box
in another receptacle partly filled with
water until the earth begins to take
on darker color, showing that the
water has saturated it.
Then Il pane of glass should be
placed over the box and the latter set
on Il table where it will get the sun
or, better still, on radiator or the
back of the stove, for bottom heat is
preferable. If the soil dries out more
water must be given. If the earth is
too wet large drops of water will gath
er on the glass, which should be part
" removed for time. This is the
way to beat your neighbor when 1t
comes to growing the earliest vege-
tables and flowers.

Things Farmers Should Know
WHILE THE PLOW is IDLE.

Seed corn that was saved last
fall should be looked after now.
1t is not too early to begin test
ing. Remember, the man VINO
finds that he must buy corn ana
gets in his order first gets the
choice purchase.
Soil must be fed if it is expect q
ed to yield a profitable crop. 1t
would be just as reasonable 10
expect IL COW to make milk out
of q ration of straw as to ask the
soil to yield a harvest without re-
storing it's fertility.
In many parts of the country
snow is too deep this winter to
make the manure spreader avail
able every day, but it should be
used lust as much as possible.
The pruning of fruit trees may
be attended to now. All dead
limbs should be removed, and
where limbs cross each other cut
off the least desirable one. In
cutting off large limbs care must
be taken that they do not split
down and injure the trunk of the
tree seriously. A safe plan is to
saw off the limb about a foot
from the trunk. then close up to
it. In this way there is no dan
ger of splitting.

SAVE WATER, MAKE MONEY.
Soil Should Be Handled In Way to Re-
tain Valuable Moisture.

kdiU v al udpIV WOiSSNiO
The complaint is often made that
corn will fire more readily on fall
plOwed land than on land plowed in
the spring Quite frequently this is
due to a failure to re-establish early
in the spring the earth mulch which
has been settled down by the rain and
the freezing and thawing of winter
If the soil is left in the settled condi-
tions until just before planting the
corn, much Of the moisture absorbed
during the winter is brought to the
surface and is lost by evaporation.
If the land is cultivated early in the
spring and this is repeated as often as
will be necessary to keep an earth
mulch on the surface, very little mois-
ture will be lost. Land turned over by
the pillow and then allowed to remain
in that condition for any length of
time will rapidly lose moisture. The
soil should be handled in such a way
as to retain as much of the moisture
as possible.
In most cases following the plow
with the harrow will establish an
earth mulch and retain the moisture.
If a roller is used in the preparation Of
the seed bed it should be followed i'm
mediately with the harrow.-American
Agriculturist.
