That ebeinelglit.channe to pass.

With little smiles and bows
And nodded to the horses
And curtsied to the cows. .
The ,butterflies and robins
Responded to her brightness;
The surly turkey gobbler
Was touched by lier politeness.
"Tis said a solemn screech owl
To which she gayly bowed
Was so agreeably startled
That he really laughed aloud.
She stepped outside the pathway
For a snail that would not stir;
To a toed that Made her stumble
She said, "Excuse sne, sir!"
It hardly seems a wonder
That on an Easter Day
(At least so runs the story,
And who will say it nay?)
Two timid wildwood creatures
Of mast stand-offish habits
Come ectierying to greet her—
Two gleesome, gladsome rabbits.,
They came like fleeing fluff balls; -
They whisked along the way;
Their tails were taut and merry,
Their ears erect and gay.

Just held her two arms wide,
Quite pleased, but not astonished;

A Portable Lime Shelter.
A great many farmers have found
the use of lime valuable in crop pro-
duction. On many farms the neces-
sity for the use of lime is so general
that some sort er it systematic schema
for applying it is almost ne.eessary.
recently found a farmer who had ap-
parently given this matter some
thought and had succeded in worldn.g
out it way of handling the job effi-
ciently.
First he believes in going at the
work systematically. instead of lim-
ing it spot hero and another one there,
he takes one field a year and gives it
a complete application. If the lime is
hauled and put on during the busy
seasen it consumes se much valuable
thne that it is very often neglected.
Even distributing lime that has been
stored in the barn on a distant field
is costly at this _ busy time... • This
faemer, gets around this by having a
portable lime shelter which consists
simply of who -ace dnrunners which
he can 'haul from field to field. This
house is plac'ed in the sfield that is
to be limed the next season and dar-
ing the winter or at serite other slack
time 'it is filled with a carload of
lime. When the time for Inning comes
'the lime iS,` in good condition for
spreading and the tirrees required kr
distributing is greatly shortaed.
This house may be boilt with a
hinged roof to facilitate 'filling and.
