"It takes a big man to be pope, for he had 3,000 people in the vatican, 300 of them hardworking clerks, and the church surely got one when it got Ping X." Relating his experience at the ve cortion at the vatican, Mr. Garland said : "In the first place, T had collected letters from every Catholic dignitary I could claim acquaintance with in this country. These | took to Mgr. Kennedy, at the head of the American college in , and as typical and grand an American as they could pos- sibly have sent over there. Mgr. Ken- nerdy scanned the credentials closely and then passed me on to the secre tary of the vatican. That official lat- er handed me a card saying that the pope would grant me an audience the following Sunday at four o'clock. Half an hour before the appointed time I arrived at the vatican--which is a col- lection of a score of buildings--and was halted by the Swiss guards. 1 had read these guards were to be mus tered out.

For women the regulations pro- vided for black, high-neoked dresses, no hair ornaments and the veil in lieu of a bonnet. We wore ushered into the audience room, a place about 150x50 fect, and containing 150 chairs. There were 123 in the Parfy. After we had been seated some little time a clergy: man came in and signaled us to rise, aking in Italian at the same time. 'Wo wire scarcely up before the door-- the same one through which we had entered---o) and, in came another priest, followed almost immediately by the pope. The master of ceremonies, the first of the priests to arrive, di- rected us to kneel. This we did just as the pope arrived. Halting to sur vey the audience, the pope walked to the beginning of the receiving line, which was alm all around the room, and extending his right hand, permitted his guests to kiss his ring. He moved on to the next visitor, and so in due time the came to me. 9 Hi i Ti if | fl 8s I { gl i BiFE i 2 i 1s E I EB less and after a long ex- s myself, I should X is the sort of a pe-organize a big in surance in a week and have a host of directors begging him to run things and policy-holders asking for additional icies--overybody feel- in that everything was all right at at." sk i g £ = & § 8 nb i PALE FACED GIRLS. {Thousands Using Successful Cure For Paleness and Anaemia. - The pallid always lacks appe- site.

That's good, the miore the merrier. It is reported that the cold back- ward weather has interfered with fp sale of root seeds, to some extent. ° There has been a big slump in dairy prices in Montreal. Creamery sold at 228c. to 28jec.; old cheese was offered ot 13jc. to ldc. The make of new cheese is increasing, and factories are sellimg at 10c. to llc. * In London last week, cheese was selling at 13jc. to better than lc. Good apples are scarce in Toronto, anid ame in good demand. -- Ph It & stated that the outlook for dairy farmers in parts of Europe is of a serious character, especially for those who have a light and porous soil, The rainfall in the best parts of the butter produci countries of Europe, for the first months of the year was very deficient. Unless the rainfall becomes more plentiful, pastures must suffer, and the produc- tion of milk and butter be much bhe- low the average. No crop will serve the Ontario dairymen as a substitute for mangles. To the hog producer, in fact to men in almost any lie of live stock, the crop is also of first class importance, Roots in some form are absolutely essential to the keeping of stock in proper condition in the winter season and no root is quite so useful for the purpose as the mangle, including its sister plants, the sugar mangle and sugar beet. The only possible rival for mangles is the turnip, and the latter is wholly out of it, in the case of dairymen. Moreover, taking the province as a whole, and averaging results for twen- ty-three years past, the mangle has given a yield of about thirty bushels per acre more than turnips. It is also a surer crop per acre than turnips, being less suscoptible to insect ene mies than the other roots have been of late years. Of the different varieties of mangles the yellow intermediate has, during late years, given the best results. Tt has proved a heavier yielder than its old time rival the long red, and is also considered the better keeper of the two. Where the soil is not too heavy a clay, the sugar mangle may be found even more satisfactory than the yel- low intermediate, because it is so much richer in sugar content, and also because it is considered a little superior in point of keeping quality. In stiff clay, however, the sugar man- gle is apt to be rather hard to har- vest. In the planting of mangles, Director Zavitz of the Experimental Union re- commends having the rows 28 inches apart. and the roots not more than 12 inches apart in the row. This gives fair sized individual roots and the crop will, according to experiments enrried on at the O0.A.C., be larger than those raised with mangles closer together «or further apart. Immense crops of corn are grown yearly by I. 8. Long, of Leband coun- ty, Pa., according to the American Agticulturist. On ninety acres last season his yield was over 130 bushels of shelled corn per acre. Last fall he selected the seed corn for this spring's planting handling each ear himeell. He took out a few grains from the centre of each, to make sure that the grain approach his "ideal in size and unifor- mity. He stored his seed on the cob, in a room where there weré no fires.

The eges from fat hens are sddom fertile, and the turks that do hatch are apt to be puny. Coops for the hens and brobds should be absolutely rainproof.
