The Rebuke of Nathan. Thou hest killed Uriah the Hittite. The story of David's crime is told in -chapter II. He has caused this brave soldier to be sent to certain death -be- fore the walls •of Rabbet,. the capital city of the Ammonites, 'which his army was besieging, in order that he might take to himself Bathsheba, Urian's wife. For this crime he was fittingly telobuked by his loyal friend and coun- t ...`Alor, the prophet Nathan, in the par- able of the•poor man's lamb. Nathan showed superb courage as well as tact in thus bringing home to the Icing his fault. His courage and fidelity Might well have coat hint hie line. He doei xiot heeitate to charge David with a grow and remain in good condition, breach of the sixth commandment in theffeilling Uriah, and declares that, as a consequence, the sword shall never depart from the house of -David, a peedietion most unhappily, fulfilled up later. This is a mistaken idea—a stunted colt will never fully recover. The young horse should be fed liber- ally of the right kind of feed.. The mineral content of the ration, as well as the protein, carbohydrates, and fat should be considered carefully. The bony framework of the horse demands a considerable amount of calcium end phosphorus; the blood needs sodium, potassium, and iron; the nervou$ tis- sues demand phosphorus. These, to- gether with sulphur and magnesia, are the important forms of inorganic matter that are needed. Experience has shown me that colts make a better growth on a ration of corn and Alfalfa bay than on corn and timothy or prairie leay. This is due as much to the difference in mineral horse matures with poorly shaped content of the two rations as it is to hoofs and often poorly set legs. Bewase of thrash and kindred troubles. If the stables are kept clean and eanitary, however, there win be very little trouble from this source. Careful attention to these details will help greatly in developing well -shaped, healthy feet.

Aside from, feeding, probably the most important coesideration in de- veloping growing colts is the care of the feet, Many of the poor feet seen on horses are the result of neglect while they were Young. The toes should not be allowed to grow abnor- mally long and in -shaped.- Serious trouble may result from cracking or breaking ef the hoof. Neither should the heels be allowed to become bigin narrow, or rolled. If theee shape $ are not corrected, the feet and legs, to some extent, respond to these influences, and the the difference in the• digestible nu- trients. Most of the feeds that contain large amounts of mineral xnatter—alfalfa hay, bran, and linseed meal—also con- tain large amounts of digestible pro- tein.

The straw should be spread in thin layers in the sun to dry; the ‘sun will bleach the straw as well as dry it. Use only straight, ale). - form, straws to make the sheaf; two or three sheaves Should 'be collected in the -field to allow for waste. The majority .of persons have the idea that all the etraws should be the same letigth and the heads all placed on the same level, This would give us the square head in vvhich, when tied, the majority of the straws would break off below the head. The ideal sheaf has a rounded head with a grad- ual curve. This rounded head is pro- cured by allowing the central straws to stand a little higher than the sur- rounding straws and each layer of heaels that are 'added, to .gradttally slope away from the centre. The large sheaf may be conveniently formed by firet making a number of small sheaves end then placing them to- gether as th.ough they were individual heads, gradually sloping them off in the pante manna., To 'finish the sheaf 'a layer 'of individual heads. should be placed around the whole, producing a finished exhibition sheaf. All the loose leaves should be plucked off the outside of the sheaf with a jack-lenife, leaving only the white shining straws, and all heads that do net conform to the .symmetry of the head may be cut off, leaving a perfect sheaf. Colored ribbon about % ae-inch wide may be used with good effect to cover the • binding strip. The remainder of the plot should be threshed by hand. This will form the bulk ,sample for the Fair. If the plot .was kept. pure in the field there will 13e very little that will need to be done to the threshed sample. A good fanning mill will remove all shrunken and small kernels, all chaff and dirt, • The fanning mill must be clean; many an. excellent simple has been ruined by a dirty fanning mill. Tharough- nese is the secret of a good sample, the fanning mill should not be .spared even if it means fanning away 50 per cent. of the Original sample. • The bulk _sample should be double bagged for shipping to the Fair. The 'sheaf should be shipped in a box, %- inch longer and Sielnch broader and deeper than the sheaf. The sheaf should be wrapped in paper and tied, fitted into the box and kept in po- sition by supports. • With our present day standards al- • ways imprectnete, great eare must be taken in pieparing the exhibits for our Fall Fairs. No prize will be won by the farmer who puts up a rough sheaf or a poor wimple. The secret of success is thoroughness. in thetragic deaths of his sons Amnon and Absalom and. Adonijah. 18: 1-15.

Ten Shekels of Silver. A shekel was not a stamped coin,, but a 'weight of silver about equal in velue to a British half -down. The soldier probably read Joab's character aright when he said that Joab would have "stood aloof" (revised version) and would not have protected him from the king's wrath. Verse 13 should be rendered as in the revised version: "Otherwise if I had dealt falsely ag-ainst hie life (and there is no matter ihid from the king), then thou thyself wouldst have stood aloof." •• But Jab was not lacking in cour- age. He had defied the king's anger before, and now he was with.oat either fear or compassion. He himself, turn- ing with impatience from the soldier who argued with him, thrust three darts through the heart of the help- less youth dangling In the tree.

Or have you watched a fruit grower Olean up an old orchard, cut- ting out dead wood and 'old limbs that were in the way, and vrhich were not bearing fruit. Well, that's just what ebould be done to a good many farm flacks. Not only will culling reduce the feed bills in direct proportion aa to the number of hens taken out, but it will give the refraining flock more room and a better chance. In every 'healthy farm flock there are some hens that are laying 200 or more eggs se year, while there are others, if they have never been culled, that are laying hardly two dozen. In eacent years accurate 'methods have been worked out for distinguishing be- "tween the laying and the slacker hen. If you have ever kept an. egg record you probably have noticed that in June or July, about the time when the weather begins to get disagreeably warm, the eggs will begin to drop in< number. On studying individual records of the average flack, it was found that even the best of hens tend t� let up a little at this time. But the factor which causes most ilock reoemds -to fall is the fact that eorne hens stop laying altogether. These hens usually loaf from early summer until mid -winter. They seldom lay enough eggs in a year's time to pay their board. The hen that stops laying in the early summer can. be easily detected. She will usually be found. to be molt- • ing, and either half bare or growing new feathers. On handling her, the lay bones, the two small pin bones on each side of the vent, will be found hard and stiff and often very close together, hardly more than half an inch apart. • The vent will be small, puckered, and dry. If this hen is fat and in good flesh, kill and eat her right away, before she eats you out of house and ho -me. If she is thin, con- fine her for a week or ten days and. feed her plenty of corn and skim milk or buttermilk. She will fatten up in a hurry, and then let her have the axe. Occasionally a good hen is found to be resting at this season. It will take but a second to recognize her, as she will have, if a yellow -thanked varier, pale yellow or ivory -colored shanks ,and beak. One must be sure that this pale color is due to heavy laying and not illnes.s. A description of a tickly hen is not necessaey here, as this condition will be obvious.
