SOME EGG SHIPPING sD0N'TS'
Department of Agriculture Offers Few Practical Hints for Benefit Of
 PouItrymen.

Here are some "dont's" offered by the United States Department of Agri- culture that many times mean the diff ference between loss or a profit in shipping carload eggs:
 Don't waste time and labor by using cheap cases; time and labor are pre- cious. .>-, l. Don't save pennies by buying poor filters and flats when you lose dollars in broken eggs. The saving of one egg would pay for the extra cost of a set Of Mo- filters.
 Don't nail braces to sides of car against an incomplete top layer; they seldom hold in place and often are the cause of damage. They injure the ef- fciency of the car insulation. The use of small under-case braces will prevent all of this.
 Don't waste ice and refrigeration by slowing the load so as to make air cir culation in the car impossible.
 Don't tie up your money in freight claims because of a loose load. Tie up the load and leave the money loose to work again.

IMPURITIES ll CLOVER SEED
In Recent Purchase North Carolina Farmer Finds Weed Se2ds of
 Various Kinds.

A farmer in Rowan county, N. O., was about to purchase some clover seed last spring from one of his neigh bors, preparatory to seeding down his wheat acreage. He noticed that the seed was somewhat impure, and was reminded of the warnings so frequent ly given by the county agent in re spect to pure seed. He asked to have a small sample tested for purity by the state seed laboratory at Raleigh. The sample was reported on merely as "No. g." Each pound was found to contain approximately 65,O62 buck horn seeds, 2,282 dodder, 2,e22 wild carrot, 2,2O8 black-seeded plantain, 414 curled dock, 276 Venus looking glass, 13S each of crag grass and green foxtail-a total of 83,140 weed seeds in each pound. This would, no doubt, be sufficient to seed the mans land to these pests for the next decade. Although this sample was the worst of any tested through the county agents office, on casual inspection 1t indicated only ordinary impurity. A laboratory test Is safe check even on the purest farm seeds.

Wise Man conservss Strength.

To comprehend a mans life it Is necessary to know not merely what he does, but also what ho purposely leaves undone. 4here Is a limit to the work that can he got out of a human body or brain and he is s wise man who wastes no energy on pursuits for which he Is not fitted, who from among the things he can do we'll, chooses and resolutely follows the best.-w.

EIA SENHO LOOh DacK upon the past IlSMESIH year, and see how little we H9AAe have striven, and to what HSUINSH small purpose, and how aNANB often we have been cow
 ardly and hung back, or temerarious and rushed unwisely In i; and how every day and all day long we have transgressed the law of kind ness; it may seem a paradox, but in the bitterness of these discoveries certain consolation resides.
 Life is not designed to minister to mans vanity. He goes upon his long business most of the time with a hanging head, and all the time like a child. Full of rewards and pleas ure as it is-so that to see the day break or the moon rise, or 10 meet a friend, or to hear dinner call when he is hungry, fill him with surprising jOys-this world is yet for him no abiding city. Friendships fall through, health fails, weariness assails him i; year after year he must thumb the hardly varying record of his own weakness and folly.
 It is a friendly process of detach- ment. When the time comes that he should go, there need be few illusions left about himself. Here lies one who meant well, tried little, failed much surely that may be his epitaph, of which he need not be ashamed. Nor will he complain at the summons, which calls a defeated soldier from the field defeated, ay, if he were Paul or Marcus Aurelius but if there Is still one inch of fight in his old spirit, un- dishonored. Give him a march with his old bones; there, out of the glorious sun-cOlored earth, out of the day and the dust, and the ecstacy-there goes another Faithful Failure.

The Passing Years

fT[EN YEARS whose cup of life HYySSNH Ger brimmed HE%E3V With joys that eoad not HAsSSEH be contained; AAS1U O years whose light of joy
 was drained; Though on our lives are graven deep The records of your feeting stay, When we with you did laugh or weep, You took no thought of us away o years to come, in silent file, Out of the future nearing fast, Yoa soon will pass us by and, while We greet you, mingle with the
 past. Though on year front the sunbeams
 play;
 With sarIands gay your brows be
 twined; We know. wheH you have passed
 our way,
 What deep regrets you'll leave be-
 hind. And yet we welcome in its turn Each new year whate'er gifts it
 brings For ever in onr hearts doth burn A spark of hope for better things, Ever unqusnched to live and glow Till fade the stars from out the
 sky, In that great day when we shall know That all our years have passed us

 And all the pigs squealed.
 "We'd like to know what we could do if we took a joke. It's nothing to eat so why should we take it?"
 Red Top, the rooster clucked and crowed and grinned.
 This is the best joke"
 "What do we care about it being the best joker" asked Brother Bacon. We've already told you we didn't care about a joke because it was noth- ing to eat. We don't care whether it Is a best one or not. Now if you were talking about best dish of food that would be different"
 "Yes, that would be quite different" squealed the other pigs.
 "I was wrong," said Red Top grin ming. "Of course you have no wish to take a joke because it is nothing to eat. I meant, of course, that it was a joke when I pretended I knew what you were talking about just after I had asked you that question. I wouldn't have asked you If I had known, as have said before. And I wouldn't have bothered to have had a little joke with you If I had thought that you didn't care about joking. In fact you care about nothing but eat ing"

 house singing and receiv- ing food and gifts. From Scotland also comes the curious superstition that 1t is unlucky to take anything out of the house on New Years day before one has brought something in; hence members of the family may be seen carrying a piece of coal or any small object into the house, to prevent misfortune during the new year.
 A quaint New Year custom in Her fordshire, England, Is to weave black thorn into a crown, singe 1t slightly over a fire and stand around 1t repeat ing the words, "Old Cider" The crown Is then hung up for luck during the year.
 The wassail bowl or loving cup, filled with spiced ale, was in use in New Year celebrations in Old World countries, and children would go about the streets caroling.
 In England December 25 was the New Years day until the time of Will liam the Conqueror. His coronation occurred January l, hence the year was ordered to begin on that day. England, however, gradually fell into unison with the rest of Christendom, and began the year the 25th of March. The Gregorian calendar restored Jan uary 1 as the gateway of the year but 1t was not until 1752 that England adopted this date.
 The custom of exchanging New Year presents still holds in France and the Latin countries.
