St i* an Interesting fact In (he his­ tory of literary genres that two of the great examples of biographical •writing occur almost side by side.. X<ess than a decade separates the com­ pletion of Johnson's "Lives of the Poets"--happily honored in the new edition of the late Dr. Birkbeek Hill --from the publication of his own life t>y BosweH: Yet with the latter, book M, new type of biography came into twing. Johnson, in the main, had, like moBt of his predecessors, fol­ lowed a simple narrative and exposi­ tory method, prefixing a plain story of the poet's life to a systematic ac­ count of his character and a critical estimate of his works; he gathered Ills facts and impressions together and spoke for the author and for him- «elf. Boswell, on the other hand, making use of a more dramatic method, succeeded in his attempt to let the author reveal himself, and, in­ stead of an exposition of character, -painted a picture of < personality, to which his own comments were sub­ ordinate.

SOOK8 FOR GREAT COMMANDER. library Napoleon Ordered Comprised ffcany Subjects. la 180S Napoleon formed the idea of Staving a traveling library in order to snake his hours of intellectual recre- mtlon Independent of the exigencies of a campaign or the delays of a courier. The proposed library was to forth •bout a thousand volumes. The books Were to be of small duodecimo size, printed in good type, and without mar- Cine In order to save space. They were to be bound in morocco, with flexible covers and limp backs. The boxes for their conveyance were to be covered with leather and lined with ereen velvet, and were to average €• volumes apiece, in two rows like the shelves in a library. A catalogue was to accompany them, so arranged that the emperor could readily find nay desired volume. The distribution »f subjects was as follows: Forty volumes on religion, 40 of epic poetry, ^ 40 of the drama, 60 volumes of other ggetry, 60 volumes of history and 100 novels.

T PROTECTED MILK PAIL, Convenient and Sanitary Method of Protecting the Milk from Dirt That many of the odors and much of the dirt which gets into milk is during the process of milking, most of us know, hence every precaution to overcome this should be taken. One of the best methods of protecting the milk in the pail is to arrange a cover of tin and cheese clsth, says the In­ dianapolis Sentinel. Have a tin cover made to go over the, pail loosely so as to allow for the space taken by the cloth strainer. The tin cover should CHEESE CLOTH COVER FOR MILK PAIL. be higher in the center than at the Sides (see small cut to right) and a hole about four inches in diameter made In the front center through which the milk is directed. Then have plenty of cheese cloth covers large enough to reach five or six inches over the sictfe of £he pail, where it may be secured by a tape or by slipping a hoop of sheet iron of prop­ er size over it, and pushing it down hard. Put on one of these covers, then the tin cover, and you are ready for milking. The cheese cloth will prevent any filth getting to the milk, and if these covers are washed In boiling ifrater and sundried they may be used a number of times. The illus­ tration shows the idea plainly, the cut to the lower left showing the pail complete with the strainer and the larger cut showing how the cloth Is slashed at intervals so" it will fit around the pail without trouble. PURE WATER FOR COWS. • Matter Which Has Very Close Relationship to the Quality' Most of us realize the Importance of providing" enough water for dairy cows, but some neglect even this and let the cows get along on half rations. Of course the cows take it out of their board by not giving as much milk as they would do were they better fed and cared for. Few of us, however, consider the necessity of having pure water. It is as important that the cows have pure water as that we have it in the house. Impure water will affect the health and product of the cow as quickly as it will human beings, possibly quick­ er, for they drink more and take no other beverage. Cows in milk will drink close to seven gallons of water a day and some of them will take much more. The water supply should be the first consideration on the farm. It is of more Importance than feed or stables, and no reasonable effort should be neglected to provide an abundance of the best quality. For winter dairying a self regulat­ ing supply in the stable is very con­ venient and profitable. The cows have the water before them whenever they want it and they will drink little and often. But if the trough is in the yard and the cows must be turned out to drink let them out immediately after break­ fast. Like humans they want to drink as soon as through eating. It will make a difference of at least a quart of milk per cow if they have water then or are kept in the stable two or says 30 or more cows it will pay to have two or three watering troughs or at least a large round tank in the middle of the yard. Always avoid facing the wa­ ter trough in or near a corner. This position frequently results in the loss or injury of a critter by hooking. three hours before watering, Farm and Home. In herds of I FEEDING THE DAIRY CALF. The One Intended for Beef Should Have Different Handling Than the One for the Dairy. I And it is advisable to feed in one manner the calf intended for the dairy and to feed in a different manner the calf intended for beef, says a writer in Farmers'.Review. The feeding of the calf in either case is a matter that must be carefully considered, as over­ feeding will make the calf sick. Calves are frequently unthrifty, and the causes for, this I find to be three: Over-feeding, under-feeding, and lice. I believe that most of the mishaps with calves are due to Ignorance as to how they should be fed. I make it a point not to feed very cold milk to the calves. To a four-weeks-old calf intended for the dairy I find that 15 pounds of milk is enough, though this of course will be regulated somewhat by the size of the calf. With this milk I give from two to three pints of ground grain. After the calf is a month old and up to at least six months old, I feed some whole oats, and find the results to be good. The man that is producing cows from calves should know enough about ra­ tions to be able to select for those growing calves food that will make bone and muscle rather than fat. DAIRYING AND FERTILITY. The Keeping of Cowe Will Restore Worn Out Soils to Produc­ tive Stat*. There is no more certain method of maintaining soil fertility or restoring it when lost through negligent or un­ wise methods, than the introduction and prosecution of dairying on the farm. Modern dairying, in all its various lines, aims to return to the soil more than is' taken from it and sold away from the farm. The dairy­ man that only sells butter from his farm, retaining the skimmed milk to feed out to the young calves and pigs, really removes so little of the fertili­ ty of his soil that its loss is inappre­ ciable. It is estimated that a ton of butter only remotes from the farm 50 cents worth of plant food, while at 20 cents per pound would bring $400. As a part of dairying is the grow­ ing of "forage crops to be fed out on the farml and these, after passing through the animal, go back to the soil in the shape of manures that not only furnish plant food, but supply the soil with humus, which enables it to withstand drouths and keeps crops growing during the dry season. Thus, says the Gleaner, dairying supplies manures which enables the farmer to secure increased yiehi from his crops while his soil is steadily improving. The, drawback to dairying is in its confining the farmer very closely to his farm, except he is in the business to an extent which justifies him in securing efficient help even in this day of high-priced labor. If his farm is large enough to require, and that means pa^- for, the time of a manager, the owner tan fill that position bet­ ter than anyone else can for him if he has a thorough knowledge of the business. On the dairy farm crops must also be grown that are intended to be sold on the market. Wheat is one of these, and in this state it seems to be a necessary part of the rotation as it furnishes the best crop to seed wilh. A good seeding is a very nec­ essary part of the economy of a dairy farm, as clover is the natural complement of corn In a feeding ra­ tion. Frequently, too, it becomes nec­ essary to seed to timothy, and timo­ thy hay should always be sold off the farm. It is in better demand in the city markets than clover, brings a higher price and is not nearly so val­ uable for feeding. Oats can also be sold to advantage off the farm, reserv­ ing sufficient to supply the horses, as they generally bring a good price, and the cash received can be expend­ ed to advantage in buying bran, which is a necessity to the wide-awake dairyman. The basis of successful dairying is the growing of forage crops to feed to cows of good dairy qualities.' Both these are essential, but back of thefu all Is the man, and upon him finally depends the results achieved. BOY'S TERRIBLE ECZEMA. Mouth and Eyes Covered with Crust* --Hands Pinned Down--Miracu- y loua Cure by Cuticura. ' "When my little boy was six months old, he had eczema. The sores extend­ ed so quickly over the whole body that we at once called in the doctor. We then went to another doctor, but he could not help him, and in our despair we went to a third one. Mat­ ters became so bad that he had regu­ lar holes in his cheeks, large enough to put a finger into. The food had to be given with a spoon, for his mouth was covered with crusts as thick as a finger, and whenever he opened the "*%iQuth they began to bleed and sup­ purate, as did also his eyes. Hands, arms, chest and back, in short the whole body was covered over and over. We had no rest by day or night. Whenever he was laid In his bed, we had to pin his hands down; otherwise he would scratch his face and make an open sore. I think his face must have itched most fearfully. "We finally thought nothing could help, and I had made up my mind to send my wife with the child to Eu­ rope, hoping that the sea air might cure him, otherwise he was to be put under good medical care there. But, Lord be blessed, matters came differ­ ently, and we soon saw a miracle. A friend of ours spoke about Cuticura. We made a trial with Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent, and within ten days or two weeks we noticed a decided Improvement. Just as quickly as the sickness had appeared it also began to disappear, and within ten weeks the child was absolutely well, and his skin was smooth and white as never before. F.

Alas, that fools are prosperous. Is it their penalty or reward? How many of us in listening to the tomtoms forget the violins? To think an original thought is to take a step nearer the divine.

If you have & Bcrub cow that is a money bringer in the dairy, don't be in too big a hurry to exchange her for a pedigree cow with only breeding and beauty to recommend her. Good butter or cheese cannot be made in a dirty factory. It must be sanitary both inside a^d outside. Back of this must come clean cans, clean stables, clean cows and clean milkers. Sunlight atfd pure air are the cheap- est and most effective means of keep- lng dairy utensils pure and sanitary after they have been cleansed.

If the farmer's wife laid tbe fam­ ily table with greasy, Ill-smelling dishes and soiled linen and rusty knives and forks, he would insist on having the conditions changed in a hurry says Farming. Why, then, should he milk his cows in a dirty stable, where the milk will absorb the foul odors, and then wash his pails, canB, bottles and other utensils in impure water in a slovenly way and dry theln in a haphazard fashion? Milk is food, and other people don't like dirt in their food any better than he does. Perhaps if he could know that dLty milk from his farm caused weeks of suffering and death to some little one in the crowded city he wou\£ realize the Importance of cleanliness in his dairy operations.
