FARM FORESTRY.
The Ontario Department of Agri,,ui-
ture i9 inaugurating a work in eonneo-
tion with farm forestry. It is proposed;
to supply seedlings at a minimum cost
that each farmers as may desire them
set out small plata of forest trees. This
work will be directed from the Agricul-
tural College and E, J. Zavitz, wbo bas
been appointed lecturer on Farm Fords -
try, will have charge. Applications will
be received by the secretary of the sev-
eral Farmera' Institutes for two or three
plots in each riding to be recommended
by the Board of Directors at their annual
meeting in June. It is not neoessary
that the land devoted to this purpose be
good agricultural laud, but hill or waste
land can be utilized. Lew maraby laud
is not desirable. A, light, gravelly or
sandy soil is more desirable. A nomin-
al price for the seedlings used, from $2
to $5 per sore, will be required. Statis-
tics show we have only 17 per cent. of
our forests left in our country. These
are intended for the farmer. Not only
would the beauty of our country be en-
hanced but the value of each farm would
be increased if it had from five to twenty
acres of thrifty forest upon it.
These figures show that of the sixteen
townships, two show no alteration,
three increased by 171, and eleven lost
by 1011, the total loss being850, and that
of the towns and villages, five gained in
Population 185, and five lost 449, the net
loss being 263, making a total loss in the
county of 1113.
Cement Floors for Horses.
Cement floors are certainly valuable in
conserving all the manure, but they like
most other floors have their faults. A
cement floor is slippery, thna dangerous.
It is also a very cold floor during the
winter months. Furthermore, if used
ander horses which have calks on their
shoes it will soon wear ont. The best
all round floor for the horse stable is
made of cement and plank. Cement the
bottom, then put a plank frame oil top
of it. The planks should be about four
inches wide and placed an inch apart.
Suck a floor will be warm, and at the
same time seer all the Iiquid manure.
The plank should not be permanently
fastened in, better to have it so that it
may be raised up occasionally so that the
cement may be thoroughly cleaned and
sprinkled with some land plaster. There
is no kind of floor so good for the horses
feet as an earth floor, bat it is very hard
to keep such a floor in good condition.
Horses, especially if idle, Neill paw the
same, thus it will soob become very un-
even. It is also difficult to keep an earth
floor dry daring wet weather. -Ex.

Your Work,
Do it cheerfully, even if it is not con-
genial.
Do it in the spirit of an artist, not au
artisan.
Make it a stepping stone to something
higher.
Keep yourself in condition to do it as
it should be done..
Endeavor to do it better than it has
ever been done before.
Make perfection your aim and be satis-
fied with nothing less.
Do not try to do it with the part of
yourself -the weaker part.
Recognize that work is the thing that
dignifies and ennoble& life.
Regard yourself as a co-worker with
the Creator of the universe.
Accept the disagreeable part of it as
cheerfully as the agreeable.
Choose, if possible, the vocation for
which nature has fitted you.

The revised version of the Old Tes-
tament, which is now ont, is the most
important event in the history of the
Euglish Bible since the publication of
King James' translation in 1011. The
work of revision was commenced in 1872
and continued uurt+luittinaly until the
.close of 1884, and after twelve years of
labor is given to the Euglish peaking
world. The general character of the
revision may thus bo suntrnarized;
First, there is pnicticaily no atti inpr to
establish a new original text; second, the
prose is printed in paragraphs, and the
poetry, even if ouly of short snatches of
song, is printed iu separate lines. Third,
the rhythm is undisturb"d and the
literary value is even enhanced. The
demand for copies has been very large.
It is stared that a London correspondent
of a New'York paper offered :$2,500 for a
sight of au advance copy without
success. He was anthorizid by the
paper he represented to spend $2,300
more telegraphing the main features of
the new revision. The first orders for
the revision amounted to over a million
dollars.

,1n easterner, riding on a mall stage
in northern Colorado, was entertained
by a dialogue which was sustained.
upon the one side by the driver and
upon the other by an, elderly passen-

"I understand you're temperance,"
began the driver.
"Yes, I'm pretty strong against liq-
uor," returned the other, "I've been
set against it now for thirty -flue
years."
"Scared it will ruin your bealth7"
"Yes, but that isn't the main thing'"
" 1?erhaps It don't agree with you?"
ventured the driver, ,
"Well, It really. don't .agree with any-
body. Bttt that ain't it either. The, '
thing that sets me against it is a hos
rible idea."
"A terrible Ideal What is it?"
"Well, thirty -ate years ago I watt eitk
ting in a betel In Deriver with a friend
of mine, and I says, 'Let's order a bot-
tle of something.' And he says: 'Ne.`
sir. I'm saving my money to buy gov-,
ernment land at;1.25 en acre. I'm go-'
Mg to buy tomorrow, and you'd bene?
let me take the money you would have
spent for the liquor and bay a couple
of acres along with mine.' I says, 'All'
right.' So we didn't drink, and kw
bought me two acres.
"Well, sir, today those two acres are
right in the middle of a flourishing
town, and if I'd taken that drink I'd
have swallowed a city block, a grocery,'

THE GERMAN APPETITE.
It Is Expansive and Calls For elem.
ernes 11111 cit` Fare.
Wherever there is a German there,
you will find enough to eat. It may not
always be to your taste, but it is there?
in wholesome quality and generous
quantity, and usually his wife and cline
dren are also there to enjoy it with
him. Itis not unusual to see the en-
tire family, even down to the smallest
child, at a festive gathering, and, how-
ever queer this may appear to Ameri-
can eyes, it is a custom of the father-;
land. When the husband takes a glass
of wine or beer he is quite willing that
his wife should have an equal amount
and to give the baby a sip if it se'
pleases her. The entire code of ethics
in Germany is more on an equal plane
for men and women than in any othe*j
country in the world, and it is no doubt
due to this phase of domestic felleityi
that Germany is practically a divorce
less country. At the annual Metzel-
suppe the men do not tome alone, but
bring°their wives with them. No anag
of any other nationality in the woyitt
can bohst the gastronomic capabilityt
of the German. The number of glassest
of beer that he can consume with ease
is something astonishing, and the 1111Z4
ture of soups, sweet and sour pickles;
sausage and cheeses dear to the Teo -
tonic palate is enougli to give the or%
Binary mortal indigestion by merely(
thinking of It. -Harriet Quimby in Lege
