dampness resulting from what is
"dew" may result in spoiling the fruit.

A merciful man is merciful to - his
beasts. We like to see our farmers
when they drive into town on a cold,
stormy day, put their team in a barn
or corer them with blankets. In the
heat of summer they can always 'find,
shade in which to leave the noble ani-
mals that brought them safely to town.
'There are many, however, who on cold
d.tys;.will rush for a stove themselves
and leave their horses in the storm,
while in the beat of summer they ssek
the shade and leave their,horses in the
sun. There is something wrong about
the man ,who thus abuses his team.
He niay be a nice man, may belong to
tbe church, may not ewes r, smoke nor
have any bad habits, hut we would not
want to be his horse. No, sir.
