Shove up the blinds and let souie‘light into your business.

Almost anyone can get a'number of cows through the aununei' without a loss if he has al supply of pasture to feed on, but, very few farmers make a profit on‘ their cows in the winter. I suppose' this accounts in a measure for so many farmers having abandoned the dairy business in the winter months and do What they can along this line in the summer time, writes Mr. E. F. Brown. makes two or more crops during the your. hy laying in stocks suitable to the season. if the iurnn-rs will do likewise they will fare better. The soil should he so handled as to yield as much as possible. This cannot be done by harvesting ,u crop in June and leaving the land to rest. until planting time next year; and in the meantime the poor farmer will say the reason that he cannot pay of? the mortgage on his home is because he has not loud enough to make him 'more than a bare subsistence. There, are farmers, however, who practice it method more like that of the successâ€" ful merchant. As soon as one crop is gathered and garnered they pr!» pare the land for another crop, tak- ing care that the crop shall be suitâ€" ed to the season, as Well as to his purposes. They make their soil bring tWo crops every year, which is equivalent to doubling the size of the field. But this cannot continue to be done without feeding the soil. If a farmer would double the weight of his hogs or cattle, or increase the milk 0! his cows, he must furnish them feed. To increase the produc- tive capacity of his land, it must al- so be fed. Feeding his stock will enable the farmer to feed his land also, for the crops mown on the land can be passed through the catâ€" tle, making them grow, and on to the land. making it produce; and then with a little rotation and a. good deal of know how, the more the soil produces the more it can produce. Many farmers with 160 :1er would do better if they would make pasture of half of it and double ‘ the yield of the. other hall, which can 1 often be done by rotation, fertilizing, } restorative crops, good preparation‘ and good cultivation. The farmer should keep busy by keeping his soil, busy. He can get all needed restl by changing from one kind of worki to another, which is really recreation. His land needs recreation and not‘ rest. ! LaGrlppe. Bronchitis and Pnuemcniaâ€"Enormous Demand for Mufih Safimew, @aughs mm @ng EUN THE EARN}. €5§3E®§9§S® %§5§ @flfi 9? 99.19 g, A"? x.4;::J" , is?

Cows should be fed and milked at the same time each day and in the same order. They quickly form ha- bits and any interruption or disap- pointment is quickly noticed by the lessened product, in the pail. Good feed will be lost on a cow that is cruelly or carelessly treated. A difference of twenty-five per cent. in product has often been known to take place between cows that were equally good. They were fed the same, but treated difierently. They soon learn to come at and to expect a. pat or a stroke“ A cow soon comes to like or dis- like a person who cares for her, ac- cording to the Way in which she is handled. DAIRY WISDOM. Do not forget to put blankets on the new born calves if your stables are cold in the least. You can not give your young animals too much coml'ort and warmth. Too much stress can not be put up- on the manner in which cows are treated in the stables.

There was also the element of absolute belief by the natives in the legend that they were proof against fire. Viceâ€"Admiral Lewis Beaumont, de- scribed a firewalkink ceremony as witnessed by himself. Although those who took part in it showed no signs of discomfort. he remarked that apparently they did not like it over much. The ceremony of fire walking, Mr. Allar'dyce explained, is performed by a certain tribe at the island of Be- ga, and originated in a legend that in reward for having spared the life of a. man he had dug out of the ground. one Tui Qualitu was investâ€" ed with the power of being able to walk over red hot stones without beâ€" ing burned. An earth oven is made and filled with layers of wood and stone. In this a. lire is kindled about twelve hours before the fire walking takes place, and when the hot stones have been exposed by brushing away the charcoal, the na- tives. under the direction of a mus- ter of ceremonies, walk over them barefooted. The temperature at the edge of the oven is about 120 degrees Fahren- heit, whine on one occasion, when a. thermometer was suspended over the stones, it registered 282 degrees and the solder was melted. Yet, stated Mr. Allnrdyce, after the cerâ€" emony the natives show no signs of the terrific ordeal through which they have gone. By means of a. number of views the lecturer gore a realistic idea of the ceremony as perâ€" formed nowadays. smith presided Those who witnessed the coronm tion processions will dotlbt1055 recolâ€" lect a small group of copper-colored soldiers with bale legs and out- standing hair innocent. of cove.lng, says the London Standard.

While an eminent statesman may be termed "notable" he is not “notorious,” though he might easily become so by some glaring misconduct, in either a bus- iness or personal matter. The pre- sent word "holiday" is an adapta- tion from “holy day,” the dilierence in spelliprr having been introduced in comparatively recent times, so that the term might not be confused. Have you ever noticed that certain \Vor'ds,‘ the meanings of which were originally above reproach, when once started on the downward path soon degenerate ? That evil creeps insiâ€" diously into what it, will eventually destroy is demonstrated by the change in such a word as “cunning.” which was originally synonymous with “knowledge” in the iighest sense, and now stands for quickness in matters more or less shady. “Notorious” is another word which is slowly falling into disrrcpute, though not so entirely but that those who do not draw nice distinc. tions still confuse it with "notable" The little Klipplaat rises among the foothills of the higher Drukensâ€" berg, where the largest water supply is maintained. Snow frequently falls at these higher altitudes, and is melted by the successive rains, swel- ling the water supply.
