USEFULNESS OF FARM HORSE
Animal Will Be Practically as il Has
Been Trained During First Few
Months of Its Life.

The usefulness of a horse depends
upon its early training. The first part
of this training should be completed
before the colt is a year old. During
this period its disposition is formed and
its future character Is fixed. 1t will
be docile, tractable, and gentle, pre-
cisely as it has been raised during the
first few months OF its life; and what
ever vices it may develop in the flu
ture will all be due 10 errors made

RENEWING THE RHUBAR8 BED
Years Bed Becomes Rootbound-
Replanting Is Best.

The rhubarb bed that has stood for
a number of years in the same place
should be taken up and the clumps
cut into pieces with at least one or
two good eyes and these replanted in
a new spot, or if space is limited, even
on the old spot, but in a well-prepared
but very thoroughly enriched bed.
Rhubarb beds become rootbound and
the soil becomes so full of roots that
there is no area left for feeding. Re-
planting is the only remedy.

HOW TO TRIM BERRY BUSHES
Prune Raspberry and Blackberry
Plants Down to About Three
Canes-To Stop Growth.

In pruning raspberries and black
berries, trim down to about three
canes. A cane that has once borne
fruit has served its purpose and will
die and decay. These canes are re-
placed by new ones and will bear fruit
the next year. Stop the growth of
raspberries at three feet, the black
berries at about five feet, by pinching
out the tips of the canes.

Amusement, mingled with scandal,
greeted this action on Holmes part
His new ward excited the bitter ami
mostly of his own children. They
guessed that he was infatuated with
Laura Dean. When he spoke OF send
ing her TO school, they imagined it
was to fit her to take her place at
the head of the household.
For a month he kept her in his
home, but then the mutual recrimina-
tons became too strong. and he sent
her to a boarding establishment for
young ladies. During that month,
however, Holmes had satisfied himself
that Laura was by no means bad.
She was naturally a woman entitled
to the good things of life. The
pinched and tawdry environment OF
her home had been impossible for a
girl of her type.
Her temper was violent, yet some
times, when they were alone togeth-
er, Holmes would see the old look of
Lillian in her eyes. And it seemed
to him that this girl was Lillian re-
born on earth. Once he questioned
her.
do you know the name Lillian
Huntley?" he asked.
The girl looked amazed, almost stu
pefied. The look of Lillian. the love

This only increased the I'll feeling.

Holmes was counting the days until
Laura's return. He meant to ask her
to become his wife He had nc antici-
patton of a refusal. His children,
after protracted quarreling. had
talked of leaving him. Holmes did not
care. He felt that he had resumed
that early lie which Lillian's death
had broken off, Only two weeks re-
NAMED till her return.
He read her letters. Affectionate
they were, such as a daughter might
write to father; yet Holmes read
something dearer into them. In his
infatuation he could hardly wait for
the time TO expire.

The district school was sue

good work has been done thru
out the school, as was shown by
the exhibition given on Thurs
day of results obtained during
the year and the exercises which
showed a fair average of the
childrens' effects. The year has
indeed been very pleasant one
and the children have mani
tested a very commendable spirit
which accounts for the good
work done. The parents have,
also, given good support to the
school, for which we thank them
most heartily, and we hope that
this continues for the accom-
