FACTS ABOUT FARMING.

There used to be an old adage that
read something like this: HE that
maketh two blades of grass to grow
where only one grew before is great
er than he who conquereth a city"
This is the time Of year when
farmers in Utah should be consider
ing the potentialities of that sage re.
mark. Suppose they had each raised
one quarter Of an acre more of celery
last year and kept it until now, what
would 1t have brought them? Enough
to have brought all the children and
themselves shoes for the summer,
would 1t not? Is the Utah farmer
as rule looking out for what is best
for himself. If he raises five calves
last year, three from worthless, or
next to worthless mothers, would it
not have been better to put all the
care and attention on the other two
and determine that only the best
should be saved? How much of the
farmers land that might have been
successfully cultivated, was permitted
to go to waste? Look in the fence
corners and all around the farm and
see!
How many were careful to plant
only good seed?
How many permitted their fruit TO
freeze when smudge pot would have
saved It?
How many have fruit trees that
have grown worthless fruit for ten
years past? How much fruit have
they lost in these past seven years
by not grating their trees ten years
ago?
A pig pen will cost farmer per-
haps a days work How often did he
last year chase the pigs out of his
growing grain and finally lose his
work and grain while all the time the
pigs remained worthless.
A perfectly kept and cultivated
farm is the incest thing I'm the world.
A shabbily kept farm is a loss,
shame and a disgrace.
There is another feature of farm.
ing. Are there flowers and trees
around the little home? Is there
something to attract the children?
Are there flowers on the center table
in the parlor and on the dining
table? II there are, they will be re-
membered by those children long af-
ter the food on the table will have
been forgotten. The bees and birds,
too, will find the flowers. Again, q
few shillings will buy enough black
and raspberry bushes to make lux.
ury for the family when they ripen.
The comforts and delicacies will
change the whole appearance of home
and will be remembered and the sun.
ny-hearted boy or girl becomes
staid man or woman. And those
things cost next to nothing save
little work and a little care and the
reward continues far into the next
neratfon.-Goodwin's Weekly.

event the infantry would be aban-

Only One Little Cry.

My little daughter. having a little
boy playmate who was scornful of
anyone who cried. tried always to be
as brave as he. One day she had
taken a tumble and soiled her dress.
When l asked her II 1t hurt her she
said: Eyes, mamma. but l didn't cry.
Just one little cry fell out, but wiped
1t right off."-Chicago Tribune.

For the Mattress.

All mattresses, used either by chii-
dren or adults, should be well brushed
and beaten once a fortnight. Put in
the sun by open windows when pos
sible. In this way the white dust
which comes from the body is not al
lowed to lie on the creases of the
mattress covers. A good rule is to
have mattresses brushed regularly one
day in each week.
