Our stores are open at night more than is necessary and. the Saturday night craze is 'beyond pardon. Onr people walk the streets in many in• stances until nearly ten o'clock and then bolt into stores and expect; tired salespeople to attend to them.cheer- fully. What chance ° have they to spend a' happy and restful Sunday? As before stated, they do this without thinking , Jhescen'e out of, doors on a nice evening_ is enticing and they leave their shopping until the last— forgetting the tired people,behind'the counters.

Various mixtures are recommended, but ase good a one as any is made up of 42 pounds of Kentucky Blue Grass,live poundsrof white Oiover an acre. ThaRed Top and Glover germinate quickly, and later give way to the slower -growing but more serviceable Blue Grass Some, times a little black earth scatteeed over the bare places, and grass seed sown in it, will soon give a good lawn. —Farm and .Dairy, BEAUTIFUL CLINTON.
