Much water has flowed under Lon

The Wis dom Of the Ancients.

We farmers Of to-day sometimes get
yery conceited, thinking we live in q
know-it-all age. But the old Romans
knew a thing or two about farming.
Read the following from Cato, the great
Roman statesman, and see II you know
of anyone nowadays who could give bet
ter advice:
"Whsn you have decided to purchase
farm be careful not to buy rashly; do
not spare your visits and be not content
with a single tour of inspection. The
more you 60, the more will the place
please you If 1t be worth your attention,
nor heed to the appearance OF the neigh.
borhood-a flourishing country should
show its prosperity. When you 60 in
| look about so that when needs be, you
can fiud your way out. Choose place
which has not often changed ownership,
one which is sold unwilllngly, that ha,
buildings in good repair. Beware thai
YOU do not rashly condemn the expert
ence of others. 1t is better to buy from
a man who has farmed successfully and
build WE'LL"
These very practical words full OF wis
dom were uttered nearly 1000 years be
fore the birth of Christ. Sometimes
that is sufficient at least to take the con-
ceit out of US that have so greatly dis
tanced the ancients in farming knowl

COLORS OF THE SKY.

In "Our Own Weather Edwin G.
Martin, after noting the indications or
weather shown by barometric read
incs. the variations Of the winds and
their meaning. the ever changing
forms of the clouds, shows how the
colors Of the sky act as weather signs:
Ordinary observation has gathered
a great number Of weather signs from
simply the ever varying colors OF the
sky. Among the more familiar and re-
liable ones are:
A bright blue sky is the sky Of fine
weather.
A bright yellow sky at sunset prom
ises winds. pale yellow sky rain
and n "sickly greenish" sky both wind
and rain. A rosy sky ut sunset prom
ises fair weathT but dark red sky
ut sunset promises rain. A red sky IN
the morning promises wind or rain.
"A red sun has water in his eye.
"If the sun sets in dark. heavy
clouds. expect rain the next day
Even gray sunset indicates rain.
But gray morning indicates fine
day.

A German tradition gives the origin
Of the moss rose as follows: An angel
came to earth in mortal guise. He
sought q place Of shelter and repose
after his labors Of love, but every door
was shut against the heavenly visitor.
At length the angel. being very weary
sank upon the ground and over him a
rosebush spread like n tent. 1t caught
upon It's outspread leaves the falling
dew which would otherwise have
drenched the messenger Of love. Wax
ing, the angel said to the rose:
Thou hast yielded the shelter that man
denied:
A proof OF my love shall with thee abide.
And the green moss gathered about tse
stem
