Errors of His Ways.

"A good New Year resolution for
a middle-aged married man?" said
George AIDE at a dinner In Chicago.
We'll, the best resolution a middle
aged married man could make, accord
ing to my view, would be for him TO
swear on telling his wife and children
about the girls he used 10 kiss I'm his
young days.
I'D say TO the middle-aged married
man OF this type:
Suppose friend, your wife fell into
a reminiscent, jovial mood some eve
ming after supper and started TO tell
about the boys who used to kiss her
by the wood stove in the dim parlor
wouldn't the dove OF peace flap her
wings and light out p. d. q. just?'"

8. Crops can be put in the silo dur
ing weather that could not be utilized
in making hay or curing fodder.
6. More stock can be kept on a
given area OF land when silage is the
basis OF the ration.
Z. There is less waste in feeding
silage than in feeding fodder. Good
silage properly fed is all consumed
8. Silage is very palatable.
8. sSilage, like other succulent feeds,
has beneficial effect upon the diges-
tive organs.
10. Silage is the cheapest and best
form in which a succulent feed can be
pa divided for winter use.
IL. Silage can be used for supple
menting pastures more economically
than can soiIing crops. because II re-
quires less labor, and silage is more
palatable.
IL. Converting the corn crop into
silsge clears the land and leaves II

while the wire cloth completely battles
the mice even in badly infested
orchards.
When trees have attained the age of
six or seven years they are usually be-
yond the period of injury by rabbits.
We then have to protect only against
mice. The short, galvanized wire cloth
cylinder, well imbedded in the soil
about the tree base, is quite sufficient
even in badly infected orchards.
In combination with soil or cinder
mounds, paper wrappers are tempo
rarily effective against rabbits, but
these protectors must be removed in
summer because of the fact that they
afford excellent hiding places for many
insect pests. A simple paper (even
newspaper wrapper will serve well
for a single winter.
A high grade of building or Sheath
ing" paper is. of course, preferable to
newspapers for tree protection. A
combination of building paper and
wire cloth is a trustworthy protector
under all conditions. The paper may
be removed and the screen retained
during the growing season. The wire
discourages the mice and the paper in
winter is accepted by rabbits as an
| invitation to look elsewhere for shell
ter and forage.

Good Bowels Are
An Aid to Growth
Growing Children Need a Mid
Lopoffve 70 Foster Regular
Bowel Movement.

AS a child grows older Il requires
more and more personal attention
from the mother. and as the func-
tons OF the bowels are OF the utmost
Importance to health, great attention
should be paid to them.
Diet Is of great Importance, and the
mother should watch the effect Of GER
tain foods. A food will consupate one
and not another, and 30 we have q
healthy food like eggs causing bilious
ness to thousands, and a wholesome
fruit like bananas constipating many.
II is also to be considered that the
child is growing, and great changes
are taking place In the young man or
young woman. The system has not yet
settled itself to its later routine,
A very valuable remedy at this
stage, and one which every growing
boy and girl should be given often or
occasionally, according to the individ-
ual circumstances, Is DIR. Caldwelps
Syrup Pepsin. This Is laxative and
tonic combined, so mild that It Is
given to little babies. and yet equally
effective In the most robust constitu-
ton. At the first sign of a tendency
to constipation give a small dose OF

At intervals. sometimes closely. some.
times widely scattered, there are
small plots Of poplar and willows.
These generally grow round some
small depression in the land. and the
snow drifts here in the winter and
melts in the spring filing these
sloughs (province "slews") with soft
water. Nearly all these sloughs have
old buffalo, tracks to them, for 1t was
from them that they always got their

for building barns and hen-houses.
Wild grasses are plentiful, while tame
grasses, such as timothy, bronze and
