A practical breeder says: Low
land is death to sheep. The ewes
and lambs should have the best of
grass pasture on the farm, but let it
be dry upland"
Sucking ewes, especially, require
an abundance of pure water-have
the water trough clean. Have a sep
arate pen into which the lambs can
enter, and feed them few oats mixed
with other grains, separately from the
ewes.
Sheep should have their hoofs
pared, and everyone in the flock have
its feet dressed with carbolic acid to
prevent foot-rot. Dip the lambs, aft
er the ewes are sheared. in solu-
ton Of carbolic acid to kill ticks.
Scours in lambs indicate that the
flock needs a change of pasture.
Always give the sheep the first thing

There were many months when Cap
tain Garth did not appear at Pine
Grove. His ship vas ordered to Asiat-
ic waters, and Rose noticed that Aunt
Angela frequently received foreign
looking letters.
but her unruly heart ached for the
love she denied it.
Angela studied the letters closely.
Sometimes she smiled over them,
and once she hurriedly left the room
in tears.
June came around again, and An
gela took to watching the gates.
She expects him." thought Rose,
who knew that he had been ordered
home.
One night when the ose garden was
fragrant with the incense from a

open spaces, Rose stepped into the
pergola.
At the remote end a man, tall and
straight, was standing, and in his
arms was Aunt Angela.
HE has GOMEZ" thought Rose.
She turned and ran toward the
house. Her eyes were blinded by
tears and she could scarcely see the
way, so that she ran right into the
arms of George Garth, who was com
ing across the lawn.
"Oh!" she cried sharply, your

ROSE OF HIS HEART
BY ELiNoR GALE.

Rose Staples stood in her bedroom
window looking down at the pair sit
ting under the great beech tree.
Her aunt, charming in a cool white
gown, was pouring tea for Captain
Garth. The captains straw hat was
on the grass and the sunshine flick
cred on the silver streaks in his dark
hair. Except for the silver hair, one
might have taken George Garth to be
a very handsome man, SO 1.-THE was his
form, SO light his step. so youthful
his heart.
Rose knew him to be just twice her
W age-that was forty.
And Aunt Angela was almost forty,
and she was SO lovely that Rose felt
a pang of jealousy as she watched
them.
Garth was leaning forward in the
wicker chair, his eyes fixed on An
gela's fair face. He was talking.
Rose often wondered what topic
1t was they found so interesting. They
always grew silent when she ap.
preached and they changed the sub
ject to tennis and motoring and the
newest books.
Il wonder they don't talk to me
about dolls" thought Rose rebel
liously.
She went out to the tea table and,
as she expected, Aunt Angela changed
the conversation to the forthcoming
society circus at the Country club.
Presently the elder woman excused
herself and went into the house.
Take me to see the roses" sug-
gested Captain Garth.
He is bored with me-" thought
Rose, but she swallowed her pique
and led the way to the rose garden.
When they reached the shade of the
pergola the captain turned his hand
some blue eyes down upon his COM
panion.
Il would like one rose from the gar
den," he said in an odd tone.
"One rose?" repeated the girl. "You
may have a dozen, if you wish!" She
reached for a cluster of pink ram
blers.
But his strong brown hand caught
hers and held it close to his heart.
you are the rose l want" he said
gently.
~" she faltered, only half under
standing.
you. Is 1t SO incredible that l
should love your" he smiled down at
her.
What evil spirit whispered to Rose
that perhaps Aunt Angela had re-
fused George Garth and he was offer
ing her his damaged heart?
Surely, he had not made love to
Rose according to youths romantic
dreams. His proposal vas so sudden
and unexpected.
With a t%hrobbing heart Rose
pushed him away from her and cried:
"Oh, I'm afraid you've made a mis-
take!"
She ran away to her own and
faced her flushed reflection in the
glass.
HE has made a mistake" she told
herself. 1T is Aunt Angela he loves
he is only flirting with me. I hate
himi"
