Yea, wp commercials have our fair
nhare of odd experience;-;, and wo

there was one occasion when I unconsciously
played a queer part in a
Dig anair, arm wnenever I travel on l
this line t'ie circumstances come)
vividly before my mind's eye. and I i
experience a strange feeling of nor- j
vousiietis which, try as [ will. I can- :
not overcome.
It happened one night in 1" saber,
a good many y.?ars ago, \vh? t I !
was young on the road. I was travel- |
iUK by the evoninir train from Euston i
to catch the midnight boat at Liverpool
for Belfast.
I arrived ut the terminus on the
stroke of tiif hour, ;:nd barely had
time to pet my ticket and flint, myself
and bag into a second smoker before
the train moved off.
There were only two other pissen
gors in the eotnpartnvnt, occupying
tin? rinl <>f the samn S'-at; v ith ;i
sigh of relief, I settled myself do vn in
a corner and prepared to enjoy a elgar
and the latest evening paper.
Hor'ore starting to read I tooi; a
look at my fellow passengers, for I
have always hern fr.nil of a dial, and
can generally spot a likely talker : t
once. However, there was little projpe<!t
of anything of the kind, for
both were middle-aged men of reserved
appearance, who would hardly
deign to notice a youngster like myself.
The one opposite to me, a
clean-shaven man with . professional
air, was buried in his paper; while
' "> other was lying hack in the far

THE ESKIMO'8 PIPE.
Small Bowli With 8toms of Walrus

The p!p?s used by the Eskimoi
are quite different from those of
any other North American raoe, and
In the shape of the howl more roMrmhle
the opium pipes used by tihe
Ofclueae than anything ele-e. The old
pipe* were very small In the amount
of tobacco that they would hold, for
In former days tcflmoco was extremely
eearxiA and t?i lt? u?? moat
carefully hunbanded.
There wa* therefor a wide flaring
margin to the pipe to catch any
grains of tobacco that might ho
spillwl in filling it, then there was
a hollow which would hold a pinch
of tobacco half as larjte ap an ordinary
pea and a rather wide hole
panning down through the base of
tih? bow! which fitted into the pipe
atom. The bowl of the pipe was of
ivory, stone, brass or copper.
The pipe stem was curved and
had a mouth piece. it Ik said that
the smnll hc.Ve running down through
base of the bowl and into the
pipe stem was usually plugged with
cfltt&ou hair to save nny grains of j
tobaroo that mi^ht otherwise have '
passed down through this aj>en!uro
and lv lo^t. The smoking of such
a pipe would not loat long, and we
may prwmnye that a very few draws
would exhauet it. The ?moke was

'I'hirty-one owes had lambs. Six of
the ewes wore only twelve months
old, and did not lamb. lie. raised
thirty-eight lambs and lost six. For
the wool and Iambs sold lie received
$107. The ewes are not largo ones,
and, therefore, do not shear a very

Acid Soils.
Aciil soils arc readily detected by
the reaction which they give with
sensitive litmus paper. In making <
the test the moistened soil is pressed
against bine iitnius paper, which
change:; to red in the presence of free,
acids. Acid soils are made productive i
by using lime and other alkaline
material to neutralize the humic acid)
before applying farm and other
manures. Acid soils are m suitable
for the production of clover and
legumes.

horses to give them a sulHr-lcnt

iir.-i rondncd after having had plenty
of outdoor exercise all summer they
, nf en have trouble with swelled le^s
and other derangements. The liest
way to prevent these troubles is to
adjust I he food to tho changed conditions
of the horses. Those of the
j horses that do very little work during
tho winter do not need much Rraln
if they are getting all the hay they
] can eat. Horses can he kept in ex!cellent

and fertility, it should consist of onej

If you are keeping over male birds I

breeding plan will be this: One-year |
cockerels put in breeding pens with j
year males with the pullets coming ]
on this year. This rule will insure |
a breed of fowls that, will, in nearly
every case, conic? up to standard
weight, besides securing extra vigor
for them. Too often our fowls,
though we keep thetn pure bred,
come below required weight.

Whatever air blows in a poultry
house must blow in over the chickens
instead <;f directly upon them, to in'

is kept to a dozen or even twenty
hens. This might happen once in a
while, but you must not trust it.
Where turkeys are kept in limited
