Schedule ■snfl Prices Furnished at Office MUST ALLOW FOR “NERVES” I Important Thing That It Would Seem Average Husband Takes a Long Time to Learn. I I was extremely ignorant of worn- ; en and their ways, and more igno- , rant of nerves, says a husband of twenty-five years’ experience, in the American Magazine. Indeed, nerves were an item in the marriage rela tion that I had never considered, and it was years before the relation of nerves to marital happiness became known to me. It takes the average man a long time after marriage to realize that i his wife is a human being, much like ’ himself, with the addition of some ' nerves, some superstitions, some prejudices and some finer emotions of which he knows little or nothing, hot many men have reached the state of marriage in as complete ■ ignorance of women as I did. I had ; been rather bashful and shy with i them as a boy and too busy to pay ' much attention to them as a man. Living in cities in which I was a stranger, I had no opportunity to meet the nice ones and no inclina tion to associate with the other kind. . Being strong, healthy and normal,! I knew nothing of nerves and had scant patience with their various' manifestations, ordinarily attribut ing phenomena due to nerves to other causes. ANCESTRY TO BE PROUD Forefathers of Mennonites of Pennsyl vania Have Tilled the Soil for a Thousand Years. British peers boast of being the ' eighth or twelfth of their line. But out in Lancaster county there are men whose ancestors for thirty gen erations have been farmers. King George’s folks have only i been in the kinging business about two hundred years. That trade of j peering, so popular abroad, is new compared with the lineage of hus- i bandry of which some of the Men nonites might boast. A thousand years of farming! No wonder Lancaster is the garden of a hemisphere. “Go where there is limestone,' 1 was the motto of the early German immigrants, and it was noted even a century ago by an ancestor of the Coxe family wher ever there was limestone soil in Pennsylvania could be heard . the ; German language. It was of young men of that stock about whom the celebrated Colonel j 3'organ of Virginia said after the ' Revolution: ' “My Virginian riflemen were fine! soldiers, but I also liked the Penn sylvania Dutch because they starved so well.”—Philadelphia Ledger. QUEEN ADMIRER OF POTTERY. The English queen is an admirer and collector of old Wedgwood pot tery and at Windsor castle there is a room entirely ddvoted to this fa mous ware, some of the finest and rarest examples being displayed. Wedgwood pottery, the older ex amples of which are so much sought after, is named after the most fa mous potter England has ever pro duced—Josiah Wedgwood, who died in 1795. He produced from designs by Flaxman, the sculptor, white cameo reliefs on a delicate blue ground known and envied by col lectors all over the world as Wedg wood ware. This ware is now very costly and practically beyond the means of the ordinary collector.

The Canada thistle is a perennial which ranges from one to three feet in height. The flower heads are rose purple in color. A white feathery tuft of hair is attached to the mature seed which aids in its distribution. The plant flowers from June to September, but usually matures in July. The first step in the eradication of this weed is to prevent all plants from going to n K Canada Thistle—Flowering Top of the Plant and the Underground System. seed. It is often necessary to go into grain fields with a scythe and cut this weed out to prevent it from seeding before the main crop is cut. Plow the land as soon as the crop of grain is removed. Then replow late in the fall, leaving all roots possible exposed. A three-year rotation of barley, clover, corn or other cultivated crop should be practised. HEARD OVER THE FARM PHONE Profitable Practise to Sell or Ship Eggs Every Day—Pure Food Gives the Best Flavor. Fresh eggs are all the cry from the folks down town these days. All right, too. We don’t like to eat old, stale eggs ourselves. For this and other reasons it is a fine thing to ship or sell every day if possible. Down cellar is a good place to keep the eggs if you are compelled to hold them a few days. Fix up a little rack with slats to lay them on so the air may circulate about them all the time. This will help to keep the flavor good. There are those who claim that they can tell what kind of food has been given a hen to eat, just by the taste of the egg. This is getting down to a pretty fine point, but it is no doubt a fact that good, clean, pure feed does give an egg a better flavor than that which is half spoiled, or entirely so. You cannot blame your neighbor for not keeping up his share of the line fence if you do not keep up yours. The woman who finds garden work too exhaustive may transform it into a healthful exercise by giving it her time in. the early morning or twilight hours. It is worth while to know what your hired man talks about when he is alone with the boys. A good man ] can do them a deal of good; and a bad one —well, you had better let him go just as quickly as you can, be fore you lose your boy body and soul. The average farmer makes a mis take when he breeds trotting horses or other breeds not adapted to his business. GOOD FITTING HORSE COLLAR Excellent Remedy Is Given to Prevent Sore Shoulders, Especially es Young Animals. (By R. A. GALLAHER.) There are many ways of abusing the horse, but one of the most cruel is that of working a horse when its shoulders are sore. Sore shoulders are generally due to the improperly fitting collars. Here is a remedy, or rather a preventive, that is especially recommended for young horses, whose shoulders have not been toughened by work; but it will also apply to any case where a new collar is to be “broke in.” I urge every man, in buying a horse collar, to get a good one of proper size. Be sure that it is leather —not canvas. A canvas collar or one made of cheap, flimsy leather is bad. Before putting a collar on for the ! first time Immerse it in water, allow ing it to soak for several minutes. Immediately after taking it out of the water, put it on the horse and hitch him up, being careful that the | hames are carefully adjusted and tightened. As soon, as the horse is unhitched i take off the collar and hang it up to ‘ dry, bottom side up. In taking the col- ■ lar off be very careful not to twist it j out of “set.” I would not advise working a horse > more than an hour or two when a ! new collar la being fitted. Successful as Breeders. To be successful as breeders it is necessary that we be good judges of [ dairy animals, have an ideal type in ' mind and always in our selections and mating keep working toward our i ideal. Control of Onion Maggot. No entirely effective method of con trolling the onion maggot has as yet been discovered, according to the Massachusetts experiment station. I REMEMBERS SEASON CF COLD Uncle Onken's Mind Goes Back to Pe j riod When the Temperature Was Worth Recording. “Huh!” contemptuously ejaculat • ed Uncle Oracle Onken, during a spell of low temperature. “You young fellows don't know anything about cold weather. Why, 1 remem ber the winter of eighteen hundred and so forth, when it was so cold that if you flung a can of bilin’ water out o’ doors it cracked like a gun. Yes, sir, and a live coal would freeze solid in five minutes. Worse than that, your conversation actually froze before it could be heard. I know a stutterin’ man who talked chopped ice, and a feller who drawled so that his remarks froze in his throat and had to be extracted with a corkscrew. You had to heat your watch every , now and then, or it would tick itself i full of particles of ice and stop nin nin’. Us boys used to have a great joke. When visitors came we would slip up and put a lot of frozen shrieks and howls in the fireplace, and when they thawed out they’d yell like de i mons, and we’d have a good laugh at i the visitors’ surprise. Aw, yes, it was sorter cold that winter.”—Lon don Tit-Bits. DISLIKED THE STRAINED AIR Colored Domestic Entitled to Some Consideration Seeing That She Was So Delicate. A young housewife of suburban New York, who had gone to some trouble to get a colored woman serv ant from Virginia, grew quite proud of her new domestic after the first month’s trial. Caroline was nearly perfect. Yet not quite. Though the ! house was fitted with door'-'and win | dow screens from top to bottom, the mistress was constantly finding flies, ! bugs and the like inhabitants of the country air on her walls and furni ture. Caroline professed to be as much mystified as anybody. But one morning the mistress happened I to come upstairs at cleaning-up time. ; There was Caroline singing and working away, screens on balcony doors and windows wide open. Con fronted by her indignant mistress, the paragon was visibly disconcerted. 1 Then her face lit up with one of ! those ear-to-ear smiles. ! “Trufe. is, Miss Martha, I can’t j wu’k in dis here strained atmosphere, i I always was a pow’rful delicate j ’oman.” Caroline weighed only 250 pounds. WHY AUDIENCES WEEP. A society reporter from Topeka who attended the “Parsifal” produc tion in Kansas City recently reports this incident: “At the opera there was an expensively costumed woman and her husband. The man had not acquainted himself with the story of the opera, and so spent a good deal of the time in asking questions. Finally when Parsifal had spent some fifteen of the forty minutes in which he remains motionless, the be wildered man asked: ‘What’s he do ing now—has he forgotten his part —what is the matter with him?’ ‘Hush!’ answered the wife in a loud whisper, ‘The Holy Grail has just died.’ ” —Kansas City Star. RISK PURELY NOMINAL. “Great Scott, man!” horrifiedly ejaculated a traveler who had stopped at a wayside cabin for dinner. “You should not let that little child play with a loaded revolver! It is a ter i rible risk, and —” “Aw, I d’know!” calmly replied. Mr. Gay Johnson, a foremost citizen of Possum Trot, Ark. “I’ve got twelve or fifteen mo’ children "round the place some’rs.” —Kansas City ■ Star. MISTAKEN IMPRESSION. “When we sent you to congress i you said you were going to make some ! speeches that would wake ’em up,” i said the constituent. “Everybody there went to congress i with the same intention,” replied the ! new member. “I couldn't find any , body asleep.” SOMETIMES GETS IT. Heck—Does your wife always get : the last word? j Peck—Not always; she talks with i other women. A CHEAP ONE. “Majolica pitcher brings $655 in sale,” read Mrs. Fan. “Huh!” sneerud Mr. Fan. “He i can’t be much of a player.”
