The Telephone As A Time Saver. Marketing by Telephone, especially for small stuff, but no less for grain or live slock,-is a facility or the ;modern farm which yields a hand- some profit en the investment. There is no longer any doubt, among those who have itsed it, that nothing could take the place of the telephone as a money Savor, as well as a time sav- er. Yet there are other reasons for putting in a phone. Ewen a mile is Aoo long to drive for a doctor when a sick wife or an injured hus- band waits in deadly danger. The telephone calls from twenty miles out more quickly than one could Walk to the door- from the street, in most cases. . There is a great relief from lone- liness in the opportunity of Calling up one's, friends and neighbors—the 'phone increases neighborlimp..11, eve though it may be accused of sup planting the old-time visiting - to same extent. No farmer, howeve "hard up," can afford to be with- out telephone connections,. wlsetiter party. line or individual—Canadien C!ountrytnan. They Wouldn't Get Away. The young Titan Dunn' Ontario who when at home does more or less hunting was experiencing his first season as a farnl hand in Alberta. "All hands out" roared the farmer at grey dawn; "we must got after them .there oats," Are they wild oats or tante oats." queried the new hand in a sleepy vos1.c, "They're tame oats, 'n course" replied the boss. "011, well then," drawled the duck - hunter as he rolled over for another nap, "I think WC can Sums 01) on 'ens in daylight all right." EvidentlyLooked Prosper - An old actor, who bad, been out of an engagement for some time, was standing in the bar of a well-known public house where one can always find a few of the profession who "rest" longer than they work. • Suddenly a well-dressed man enter- ed the bar and orde,red a drink, put- ting clown a sovereign.. The bar- maid could not change it. The man limited to the old actor and said : "Pardon me, but could you change me a sovereign ?" The actor (after he had got over the shook) gravely said lorry I ,cannot oblige you with the change, but"—as he took off his hat —"I thank you for the compliment," • . • Bad Roads Are Expensive. Nan must 080 his whips and goads driving o'er the rutty roads, he must often push the wagon to assist the horse or mule and he rears and jerk's the lines,,,and he quickly under- ntines all the helpful moral lessons that he learned at Sunday school. And his wagon oft, getsstuck in the guntbo or the muelc and a man can hear hint praying seven miles or so away and he dances and he rants, swearing ' by his- Sacred Aunth that an bour on such a highway turned his golden-, ringlets grey. This fool thing's been going on ever since the nation's dawn, and it's really only lately that thb farmer took' his tools and got butiy making roads, singing merry little' odes, as he pushed the , ,oeradier and the sway - 'backed sorrel mules. Now o'er all the western lands ,there are joyous toiling bands blasting up the blasted gumbo, filling up the ruts and holes ; and the farmer' views the sight with ,a..spasm. Of delight, .and he's glad .that he is living, and he whoops and caracoles, And all cheerily he trabits into town to pay his tax, for there's fun in paying taxes when the money's wisely spent ; though this thing of building roads -of our wealth' takes mighty loads, no one who is patriotic-, will begrudge a bloctreing cent. —Walt Mason. • ' .
