The unwary man or animal wandering into a muskeg dis- appears quickly leaves no trace. et a muskeg can be cros- sed. Great tufts of heavy grass grow irregularly on the surface, and if a man will pick his way carefully he will have little trouble. A call to visit a sick man brought a@ physician In haste from the village. A muskeg lay directly in his way; since to cross it would save much valuable time, he took the risk. hen he was well over it, he heard a little noise behind him and, looking round, spied his little four-year-old son following hard after him! The boy was gi well out on the dangerous mu As quietly - pa could the doctor picked his way back and was only relieved when he had clasped his boy to his breast. ‘My boy,” he cried, “whatever do you mean by coming out here!" “It's all right, father,”’ the little fellow replied. “I just put my feet where you put yours. It° was all right.” Example counts. pole may guide some children, but mos them zealously put their tittle feet where ed parents have put their big onee. our boys and girls are to pass safe pone the dangerous places of life, they en have good leadership.

Wisdom of Canute, ’ King Canute of Denmark and Nor- way and afterwards King of England and friend of Christianity is fre quently remembered only to be ridi- culed on account of the story of how, in pursuance of the flattery of his courtiers, he attempted to order the sea back. However he®nacted many wise laws. He issued the first na- tional coinage of Denmark, and pub- lished the first written code of Dan- ish law. He raised the clergy to separate estates of the realm, and in- stituted the Thinglith or royal guard of 3,000 men. The members of this body were all of good family and able to equip themselves at their own expense. From them sprang the Danish order of nobility. In England he compiled a code of laws. In this code he denounced Paganism and Pa- gan rites, and forbade the sending of Christian slaves out of the coun- try for sale. From the pope he ob- tained the privileges for the English school established at Rome, and an abatement of the sums demanded by archbishops and princes, also relief for all English and Danish pilgrims and merchants from all illegal tolls and detentions on their route to Rome. “Mistress of the World.” “Mistress of the World,” was a title frequently bestowed upon the city of ancient Rome, which rose gradually from humble beginnings to almost universal empire, and fin- ally surpassed in the extent of its dominions all the great sovereigntics that had preceded It. The Roman rnggrg during the reign of Augus- tus, is supposed to have contained 100,000,000 inhabitants, one half of whom were slaves. It included the modern countries of Portugal, Spain, France, Belgium, Western Holland, Rhinish Prussia, rts of Baden and Wurtenberg, most of Bavaria, Switzerland, Italy, the Tyrol, Austria, Western Hungary, Croatia, Slavonia, Turkey in Europe, Greece, Asia Mfnor, Syria, Palestine, Egypt, Cyrenaica, Tripoh, Tunis, Al- géria and most of Morocco. That's the Trouble. An old gentleman, observing a Jew thrashing his son, remonstrated with him, and asked what the boy done to cause the parent's anger, ot has he done?” exclaimed the - “Vot has he done, indeed! he has let all my fowls out and eye ve ail flown aw “Well,” said the old gentleman, “you need not thrash your boy for that. Don’t you know that hens al- Ways go back to their own home to roost?”’ ““Yes,"’ replied the Jew, as he re hing, “that’s just the Perth County Exhibits Fine Success TWENTY-SIX PRIZES IN HOL} STEINS SECURED AT PORONTO —CAME SECOND IN HERD EX- HIBIT.

Once upon a d was covered so deep with water that nobody knew what to do until Pack-i-tha-a-wi took the initiative. The knife he thrust deep into the heart of the earth, hammer- ing until the canyon was formed. An- other legend says that there was a great chief who mourned the death of his wife Tavwoais.

This disease occasionally causes heavy losses in the oat crops of East- ern Canada and Eastern and Central States of America. It attacks also barley, wheat and blueg limited extent. So says Jones, Ontario Agricultural College. It is most noticed in the spring and early summer when it causes the young plants to turn yellow, brown and red, withering them up. In the latter Dart of the season it induces blast in the heads. its spread and the amount, of damage it causes is largely dependent on weather conditions. The seasons when -much rain, cloudiness and muggy weather prevail are the sea- sons most favorable for its develop- ment, Primary infection is chiefly through the stomato resulting from spattering of the leaves by tne rain with the organisms from the soil. Two species of bacteria working together are Sohcrnengiay necessary to “They do not, however, affect the plant through the root. Little can be done to prevent or control this disease except to select and breed resistant varieties, Honesty Pays. The man who aspires to the accom- Plishinent of things worth while in the realm of pedigreed live stock, must realize that his integrity as a breeder will be one of his greatest assets, and he must guard it, as he would his stocks, from foul admix- tures. As his herds and flocks in- crease and his business expands, he must make certain that, at the same time, there grows up a reputation for absolute honesty and fair dealing. Only by the help of these essentuais can be expect his business to endure and yield to him satisfaction and Dd A Song of Good Feed.
