' “Well, I reckon the most fertile piece 0' ground in Texas is up on Ed Jones’s ranch in old Starr. The first ume Ed plants potatoes they grows like young trees. Ed calculates on how there is a sight 0' vegetable en- ergy going to waste.

The parson was shocked at such depravity, and began to lecture them on the sin of lying, and concluded his remarks by saying : “Why, when I was a little boy I never told lies.” The boys were silent for a second, when one of them said sadly :' “H 1nd him the dog." ~ The Starr County man had thrown down the gauntlet, and :1 Cameron man tookrirt up.» Remedy for Truancy.

It was strongly urged upon his congregation by a well-known High land minister whose parishioners were too speedy with their drinks. Alter an eloquent exhortation, the reverend gentleman concluded : “And noo, ma. freends, this tram-tramming and trink.tnnking must cease; it must and shall not conteenue. Not that I object to a sma' gless of a mornin’ to keep aff the chills before breakfast. or in the forenoon when an acquaintance looks in upon you or you veesit a neebor’s 'house.

So he got some prize eggs and put them under the old hen in the back yard. In order to teach him a lesson and discourage his growing vice, his wife removed the prize eggs from under the unsuspecting hen, and put in their place some ducks eggs. Some weeks later the wife heard a commotion in the wood-shed.

On that occasion he said he consider- ed the progressive toward temperance in the colonies was the most inspiring feature of the movement. He express ed himself in pessimistic terms con- cerning the future of the English race owing to their heavy drinking The late Dear Farrar was a low churchman. A few years ago an agitation was carri- ed on by the ritualists urging his re- moval from the deanery because he delivered an address in a Methodist church, in the course of which he said; “One kind deed is worth a million orthodox creeds.” They were asking comm~ drums in the commercial room the other evening when a previously silent- young man put in his spoke. 1Wg0' Irene,” he said.

The O‘tawa Citizen struck a humorous vein the other day and said: “the story of the gold nugget found in the interior of a Madoc pork- er was rather on the hog. At least the animal seemslto have been con- siderably cut up when its wealth was discovered. Yet it demonstrates that there is 'money in live stock in that section. Still the sad_fate of this par- ticular animal would suggest to others the propriety of coughing up or they should not squeal when they get stuck for their wealth. In future this will be one of the perils before" swine. But. seriously, the question -of how that nugget got there should be considered by the Baconian theorists. It may account for the richness of Madoc pork as an article of diet. Little did that porker know when it rooted it up that it was the root of all evil. But not being able to make a. silk purse out of asow's ear it did the next be 1 thing and made a savings bank; out of its tummv.‘ Perhaps it had ambi- tions "niuea pig. and my. Remember, son, that the werld is older than you are by several years ; that for thousands of years it has been so full of smarter and better young men than yourself that their feet stuck out of the dormer windows ; that when they died the old globe went whirling on, and not one man in ten millions went to the funeral, Don't be too sorry for your father because he knows so much less than you do. Re- member the reply of Dr. Wayland, to the student of Brown University, who said it was an easy enough thing to make proverbs such as Solomon wrote. 'Make a few.‘ tersely replied the old man.

The fact of the bottom coming {toward one might be a harm- less enough thing in itself, but it is al- ways associated with a deep groove around the edge at the junction of the bottom and the sides. where dirt and germs meet on one common ground, and with one common aim, namely. to contaminate the milk as soonasit is strained into the can. Therefore, if any of our readers find it necesssry to buy a new can. be sure that the bottom draws away -from you when you take the lid 03'.

She understood what it meant. Treat a man as if he were a gentleman, and n: wiii rarely disap- point you. In illustration of this truth Mr Crosse, author of “Round about the Ctrpumians" tells a good story of a robber chief in Hungary. A few The name of the robber chief was afterward known. He was an lulpOVcr ished cadet of one of the noblest fami lies in Hungary.

Since h0g5 have gone up, however, we have be come more liberal and have often fed longer and heavier than we eculd have 1 afforded had the price of pork beenl lower. It was when the price of the finished hog was away down that we learned our most valuable lesson in feeding. Necessity compelled us tol feed economically, and we leamedl how to do it, We learned how, by feeding clover. roots and other green foods,g to make a profit on four-cent pork, and the proper way to take the fullest advantage of the improved times is to feed our six cent hogs just as economicayll as we did when pork was much lower. By so doing, an increase is selling price means an increase in profiwnd not simply an 1ncrease1n amount received. In this connection clover, rape and roots play an import- ant part. In laying out the plans for the smon’ s crops, we cannot urge too strongly the importance of setting a part good-sizedp lots for these crops, and also a plot for alfalfa. The time for feeding hogs exclusively on grain is past; intensive farming. which means the maximum of production at the minimum of cost, is now the order of the day. and there is pl'nty of room for its development in the hog raising industry. J. Hogs are now realizing good prices, and it is probable that for some time they will be profitable stock to raise. It is when hogs or any other farm animal is enjoying this distinction of being profitable that the greatest leaks in the feeding operations are likely to occur.
