Same Old Question.

sTt seems that about once
every four years the question OF
holding the council committee
sessions open 20 the public bobs
up. is agitated for a few days by
the press and then is soon forgot
ten. About seven or eight years
ago when I served in the council
reporter misquOted a number of
counc2lmen and jOkingly referred
70 some ungrammaucal remark
made by a member. After that
IL was decided by unanimous
vote that as soon as the council
entered upon its deliberations
they wanted 20 be alone. Since
then IL seems 10 have been Che
custom 20 excuse everyone from
the committee room but members
OF the council which, in my
opinion. was a wise act
In such language. Councilman Lane
admits that Il is protection

WHEN TO CUT YOUR HAY.

Some Pointers For Growers Of Tim

Timothy may be cut in the forenoon

Any hay preserves best its color. arO-
ma and palatability by being shocked
or placed in the stack in the greenest
possible condition without being so
green that heating or molding will oc-
cur.
If the timothy is very heavy and Is
exposed to dew or q light shower be-
fore 1t is raked it will frequently be
necessary to use the tedder In order to
shape 1t up thoroughly and get rid Of
moisture.
Except in the case Of small fields un-
der conditions which would not Justify
an outlay for machinery, there Is very
little Of the hay crop which goes into
the old time shock. This Is undoubted-
ly very satisfactory way OF curing
hay in its best condition, especially II
protected by shock cover, but where
large amounts are to be handled 1t Is
better economy to place 1t in a NOW
or stack it directly from the windrow.
Clover Is best cut when 1t is in full
bloom, but 1t is better to cut it earlier
than this rather than later. If cutting
Is delayed until some Of the clover
blossoms mature and turn dark there
is likely to be heavy loss Of foliage
and consequent deterioration In feed
ing value.-Orange Judd Farmer.

The Rocks and the Seagulis.

A Dover correspondent remrts Il Gu
riOus incident Wh;' II wHs Witnessed nj
a farm at Elms Vale. on The confines
Of the borough A flock of seagulls fly
ing inland had taken possession of
newly sown field and were pecking
away, when still more numerous
flock Of rocks swooped down and at
tackled the gulls. The rocks, being
about two to each gull, tapped and
rushed the gulls until they withdrew
to q field some distance off. The vic
torious rocks then proceeded to enjoy
themselves in the field, having first set
what were apparently sentries along
the side Of the field. 1t was amusing
to watch these sentries hustling away
any gull which strayed too near. It
has been noted by naturaiists that this
setting of sentries is In accordance
with the habits of rooks.-London By

EMERSON IN OLD AGE.
Even His Failing Memory Could Not
Mar His Availability.

Even His Failing Memory Could Not
Mar His Availability.
In DR.. J. X. Hosmer's "The Last
Leaf" there is pathetic picture OF
Emerson in his old age, when his men,
ory had failed while his other faculties
remained strong: 81 had as a fellow
guest a man who had long been init
mate with him and whom he was very
glad to see. Talking after tea in the
library, Emerson said: Il want to tell
you about a friend in Germany. His
name I cannot remember and he
moved to and fro uneasily in his effort
to recall it. This friend with whom
we have taken tea tonight, whose
name also I cannot remember'-here
again came a distressed look at the
failure Of his faculty-T cannot re-
member his name either, but he can
tell you of this German friend whose
name have also forgotten
'It was q sorrow to see the breaking
down of a great spirit and his agita-
ton as he was conscious Of his wan

see, it was only the memory that was
going. The intellectual strength was
still apparent, and the amiability OF
his spirit was perhaps even more man.
ifest than in the years when he was In
the full possession Of himself.
This came out In little things. He
was overanxious at the table lest the

about the supply OF butter and apple

his knees on the hearth taking care
that the fire should catch the wood to
abate the evening GOODNESS that was

CORN SILAGE PAYS WELL.
Experiments Prove It's Great Worth az
a Feed For Stock.

Experiments Prove It's Great Worth az
Feed For Stock.
The South Carolina experiment sta.
ton recently published bulletin by
Archibald Smith giving the results Of
tests to ascertain the value of different
kinds of forage crops fed with cotton
seed meal. The main findings are Of
especial value to the farmers Of the
south and of great value to farmers In
any section of the country. The bulle
tin demonstrates anew the economy
Of corn silage as beef producing feed.
In this test silage, corn slower and
cottonseed bulls were compared. The
test demonstrated:
That corn silage gave by far the
best returns not only I'm economic pro-
duction Of beef, but also in the quality
Of beef and the shape In which 1t
reached the market.
That silage fed steers produced beef
from 15 to 20 per cent cheaper than the
other feeds.
That silage fed beef lost less In ship
ping to market. This Is test which
some shippers have disputed IN the
past, declaring silage fed beef lost Sc
verely In the shipping process.
That the silage fed group produced
gains that would warrant a value on
the silage Of $3.50 per ton-this earn
ing on q very poor market, as the steers
sold for only $3.50 per hundred. Had
they been sold on a good market the
gain might have beea increased 90 per
cent
That with a cost Of 81 per ton for the
production Of corn silage a fair aver.
age good corn should be made to earn
from 500 to $40 per acre.

day last June the landlord called to
collect the rent and before leaving
said:
"Say, August, after the first day of
July I'll have to charge you SIS
month more than you are paying now.
The paving on this street has cost me
good deal. and now the gas company
is raising it's rates, and I've gotta have
more rent"
"Vell," said August, that's all right
A little later the barkeeper came
over to Augustus desk and said:
"Say, August, the cost Of living is
goin' up so fast that l gotta have
more wages. After the first Of July ]

"Vell," said August II guess that
will be all right"

"Say, August, hops is darned scarce

The Drink That Was Called Robur.

About forty years ago there was ad-
vertised on London billboards a drink
called Robur, said to be good for every
ailment and, incidentally, the long
sought after elixir of life. One was
invited to send for free samples, and
its marvellous properties were the sub
ject Of everybody's conversation. Ro-
bur might have been sold to this day
had not some one, without the fear Of
a libel action before his eyes, divulged
its secret formula-cold tea enlivened
by rum. From that moment 1t fell as
rapidly as 1t had risen, for people
could make their own Robur If they
wanted it.-Chicago News.

The Noble Life

True worth Is in being, not seeming;
In doing each day that goes by
Some little good. not in the dreaming
OF great things to do by and by.
For, whatever men say In blindness
And spite Of the fancies of youth,
There's nothing so kingly as kindness
And nothing 80 royal as truth.
We get back our mete as we measure;
We canVot do wrong and feel right,
Nor can we give pain and gain pleasure.
For justice avenges each slight.

The bush for the robin and wren.
But always the path that Is narrow
And straight for the children of zner-

ONE CAUSE OF WASTE.

10 Is stated on good authority
that the annual loss to the apple
industry Of the country by the
cooling moth alone amounts to
over $12,0OO,OOO The annual loss
to our truck growers from insect
pests amounts to about 20 per
cent Of the crop, but by judi

might be reduced to 8 per cent.
This shows the need of up to
date methods to reduce the high

"Long Bridge" road, beg
leave to submit the following
report:
Since our last report advis-

being $11, 685. 90. The second
bid was received from Eben
Olson of Port Wing, Wis,
whose price was 81, 900. 90.
Your committee, after fig
uring on all the details con
nected with this work, reach
ed the conclusion that s., 600.
90. was not an unreasonable
price and therefore made con-
tract with Eben Olson for
this work with the under
