To her fond lover's side.

With fieenealt tugs and strains,
Until she innocently said : .

They're married now, perhaps because
She was so helpful then,,
She loves him well, and he loves her—
Well, in the way of men ;
And yet in all their sweet delight
Ono cad thought makes him wince ;
She held the reins that winter's night,
She's held them over since.

ACROSS BELE CIISTAN,
flow to Sevum the Best Results Irrom
Dieadows and Pastures.
During the latter part of the fall and
early winter is ono of the best seasons
for applying manure to grass lands,
There are perhaps two advantages in
this; one is that during the winter the
rain and melting snow will aid. materi-
ally to carry the soluble portions into
the soil in a condition to be used by the
growing plants, and the other is that
the coarser or insoluble portions that
remain on the surface will act as a
mulch and help materially to prevent
injury by thawing and freezing. It is
often the case that both the meadows
and pastures are cropped so close that
the plants are injured very seriously by
the thawing and freezing.
One of the best plans of manuring is
by applying on the grass lands. Of
course where this is done a regular sys-
tem of rotation should be followed up.
At the same time with good manage-
ment and proper manuring land may
be kept in grass for several years with•
out a change.
With both meadows and pastures, by
keeping the soil rich and better growth
can be secured, and this implies the
keeping of more stock and the snaking
of more manure.
If manure is applied early to grass, it
will evorlc down on the soil so that it
will not interfere with the growth of the
grass the next spring. However, if ap-
plied in large lumps some damage may
be (done to the -clients by smothering
them. By a little' care in spreading, so
that it will be scattered evenly over the
surface, this may be avoided.
,Of course care must be taken not to
haul out when the soil is soft as consid-
erable damage will be done in this way.
But there will be plenty of opportunity
for hauling out manure during the win -
Iter onto the meadows .and pastures,
'when no injury will be done by manur-
ing and the soil is in good condition to
derive the benefit from±he application

Awhile ago,�lieuts. Leontier and Pat.
rin, Russian army officers, left the town
of Djulfa, the last Russian post on the
Russo -Persian frontier, for the purpose
of crossing Persia and Baluchistan on
horseback, They travelled withoutany
escort, discarding all baggage except
what could be carried by the two horses
they rode. They were armed to the
teeth, They followed the road through
Teheran, and Western Persia, being a
well -cultivated land, offered no difficul-
ties.
It was very different, however, in
Beluchistan, a region that is infested
with brigands, The Persians will not
trust themselves there, except in large
caravans, with an armed and mounted.
escort. The people of Beluchistan are
not numerous and do not welcome the
visits of strangers. For their better se-
curity the tourists made it a practice to
camp in the open air at a considerable
distance, not only from settlements, but
also from the travelled road. They had
to put themselves on a short allowance
of sleep, as one of thom was invariably
on guard while the other slept, They
accordingly found the journey extreme-
ly fatiguing and also suffered from a
scarcity of food, being at times unable
to buy any supplies from the 'natives.
They had a number of encounters
with bands of brigands numbering
twenty to thirty members, Whenever
they said a suspected lot of men on their
route they left the road in order to give
the party passage if they desired it,

less than one-third the average cost, and
one-half what it costs uncle( the average
management. In producing cheap;pork
we also greatly reduce the risk of loss
from disease. ] low r an we produce the
best of pork? First, by reducing the
time to produce it. A thrifty grewthy
hog that wiil weigh. 200 pounds gross,
and which gives meat well marked with
lean, is most desirable. This 'weight
can be obtained .rat six months, and
where a butter dairy is run in c+ennec-
tion with pig growing, a considerable
greater weight is possible. The :points
essential to produce this weight .:at six
months are: 1st. A. good breed of hogs.
2nd. Mature mothers. :3rd. Theeare of
the sow during pregnancy. The mis-
take usually made is in feeding too
much corn and making the sow too fat.
I have come to be a .great believer in
roots for winter feeding of brood sows,
both ou the scorerif economy andihealth.
4th. The pig must. be taught to seat as
early as possible, and provided with a
pen or apartment which the sows can-
not enter, in which to feed them. They
will begin to eat regularly at four
weeks old, then they. can be weaned
without losing anything. Bran is the
best food we have for developing bone
and muscle, and a:little corn is a help.
Lime for Roup and Gaps.
Turpentine will .destroy the germs of
roup, and it destroys the gape avorm.
Lime will do the same thing. Both
articles are cheap and easily handled.
Roup germs are difficult to kill when
they are in the ground, and it isnot an
easy matter to apply solutions ,to the
soil, unless every portion of the asoil is
saturated, while the expense of so.doing
is quite an item, but lime ma,,,y be
broadcasted over the yard daily, and in
a few minutes. The best preparation is
to add a pint of spirits of turpentine to
a peck of fine, dry, air -slaked lime, and
incorporate the two substances well to-
gether by rubbing. Now add thetl3eck
of prepared lime, milting well, ;to a
bushel of fine lime, and place it ,in a
barrel, in a convenient place, under'
shelter. Every light, just as the bens
;go on the roost, oust the prepared lime
;freely and liberally over the walls,
aroosts, nests, floor, :and make all the
dust in the house, that; you can. Nest,
dust the yard also. You will do mare
.to cure roup and stall lice than by any
other method of the same cost.
Shoop and Strang Feed.
COO slow in accustoming sheep to eft
full rations of strong feed. Most sheep
are not accustomed to siil cake or cot-
tonseed meal, and they will have to be
worsted to them with canton. Both of
these feeds will greatly promoto fatten-
ing and are very desirable for the sake
of variety. Sheep are fond of variety,
but they want that variety to consist of
articles to which they are accustomed.
Lot either taf these strong feeds be
given et first in very small quantities,
not over a tablespoonful per head, mix-
ed with four or five times its bulk of
wheat bran or some other ground feed
to which they are accustomed; and
then let the proportion of it be inereas.

Got nor Sweetheart and tho Horses.
There is a young Iady in Washington
comity with a sweetheart whose parents
gave her a good horse to quit him. After
a while the parents took a liking to the
young man and gave their daughter an-
other horse to reinstate him, She did
so and now has two horses. The result
is they will have a good team to start

They reached the frontier of India

inducing the British authorities to per-

wander where they pleased. They
travelled as far as the Indus, which.
they descended, and then returned ,to
