KEEP SEED FROM WEEVILS.

Farmers who have saved seed sub
tect to weeyil attacks should be sure
to keep them free from these pests.
To control these, Professor Geo. G.
Becker of the University of Arkansas
recommends the use of one part by
weight of air slaked lime to two
parts by weight of the grain or seed.
The seed must be kept in the lime
from the time it is stored until ready
to plant.
Carbon sulphide.-Those who pre-
Ter to do SO may use carbon bisulphide
instead of the air slaked lime. To use
he carbon bisulphide, fill an air tight
oarrel $50 gallons capacity to within
about four inches of the top with the
grain to be treated Then pour over
he top of the grain about one-half cup
Of carbon bisulphide and cover at
once with heavy canvas to hold the
tunes in place. Allow the cover to
semain on for about 81 hours, then re-
move. Where only small quantities
Of seed are to be treated, use one tea
spoonful to each gallon of grain or
one-fourth teaspoonful to each quart
Of grain. All fumigation should be
done when the temperature is about
70 degrees FAThe fumes of the solu-
tion are very inflammable, so do not
have fire, such as lighted lamp, Ian
tern, pipe, etc, around.

A writer in the Pail Mail Gazette
thus speculated concerning the amalga-
nation of Christmas eve and st. Nicho-
las eve: perhaps the amalgamation
of the two festivals was brought about
by motives of economy, the giving OF
presents on December and again on
December 25 constituting too heavy
toll on parental purses. That this was
the case appears to be proved by the
custom prevailing in Catholic Germany,
where st. Nicholas duly appears in
each home on December ), and, inQuir-
ing into the conduct of the children,
rewards the worthy with fruits and
cakes and lectures the unworthy on the
duty of obedience. He then asks the
Christ Child to bring them at Christ
mas. and on the morning of that day
they usually find the desired articles in
the shoes which they placed overnight
ON the hearth. This variation of the
original Nicholas eve custom, for 80
long obsolete in England, probably ac-
counts for our possession of Santa
Claus In his present form. He Is
supposed to have been an importation
from America about 40 years ago
(as a little earlier we had derived the
Christmas tree from Germany on the
Initiation Of the prince consort, hus-
band of Queen VictOria0"

The Christmas Spirit.

However it may be, when Christmas
comes it finds us all to greater or
less degree ready to cry "A merry
Christmas to alp and to the best OF
our ability keep it with good cheer.
Deep down in our hearts every one of
us cherishes what may be called the
Christmas sentiment. Even if we go,
as so many have done of past years,
outside of the walls of our own home
we still observe our Yuletide in a more
or less conventional manner. We may
escape our relatives, save ourselves the
bother of home preparations, pretend
that we have cut adrift from the old
fashioned methods, but it all amounts
in reality to the same thing. We are
animated, after all, by the same spirit,
whether we are in a country house, a
fiat, restaurant or hotel,

Working In the Name
Of the Christ Child

@ ONE thirty years ago there lived
y in the city of Washington a young
girl, the daughter of Richard T.
Merrick, a distinguished lawyer, says
the Survey. A serious injury, due to
an accident, had left her an invalid,
confined to her couch. The Christmas
season was fast approaching and amid
the preparations for the holidays,
which the happy family were busily
making, this young invalid, reared in
luxury, conceived the desire of clothing
lin the name of the Christ Child some
poor babe who was to come into the
world in poverty. She made a simple
but complete layette, sent for friend
who she knew could find the very
mother who needed such assistance,
and one small child was clothed in the
name of the Christ Child.
The Christ Child, society, founded
81 years ago, distributed 139 layettes
last year. Not one request has ever
been refused to an applicant Endorsed
by it's visitors. And from this has

And oper him tohite light trailing

Stand ShONIdering rdilk on rank,
His roots at the cold SSoeet sources
The ancient juices drank,
And he Saoept teith the earth compass
As the cast skies rose and sank.
His boughs brushed Ioto on your fore

As q passing ICING might brush,
When night a0inds made shrtlI music
In the heavens, and hush, oh, hUsAg
For deep In his DEEPEST covert
He hid the hermit thrush.
Lop haze they laid the giant,
And they hale him home a0tth msTtAs
And they fan the fires that taoifsklc.
And sing round his messy 0trths
And make tctth mighty magic
The life of the Christmas hearth.

Ere the Christmas bells come chinainO
