chimney to catch on fire. shuts his
windows at night and does not other

is master in his own house.
In Austria, things are different. The
Viennese home is more like gaol
than a castle.
Vienna is the City Of Flats: and

warder. Out of doors you may do

underground and unventifated) may
safely hail a passing policeman and
give him their pocket-book and ad-
dress, and drop off into slumber with
the comforting certainty that they
will wake up the next morning in
their own beds.
Despite the awesome sword which
he carries in lieu of truncheon, the
viennese policeman is q genial soul.
He is the good fairy Of the city. The
hausbesorger, however, is its evil
spirit. He lives in a gloomy cavern
at the foot Of the stairs, and pounces
out on you every time you pass, and
tells you you mustn't.

At no time may one shake ones

take horses for instance there seems to
be quite large number in the county
for sale but not much of a demand
Now if it was known by horse buyers
that they could gather them here by
the car load we would have buyers en-
ongh because the demand is good in
other sections.
With county organization they
could all be listed with the secretary
and the list advertised in our local
papers and the list would be large en-
ough to attract outside buyers. Where
at the present time il advertise what ]
have individually it would be of no at
traction to them, the same would hold
good with whatever We have to dispose of
| The way we are situated at the pre-
sent time a buyer has to spend too much
time and money hunting up whatever be
may want to buy and he deducts that

Every club should see that they are
we'll represented at the meeting and
every farmer should make an effort to
attend and do SO if possible.

their organizations and gather together
to improve their conditions. Its about
