Among the occupations which offer

the most interesting is one which is

recently issued covering the manufacture
of concrete beehives, but anyone
with a lit tie ingenuity may easily

HANGING-SHELF FOR CELLAR
Curtain Hung Around Fruit Jars Excludes
Dust and Keeps Out Flies
to Great Extent.
(Dy J. WKKI.KV OHIFFIN.)
We used to wrap all of our glass
fruit jars with paper to exclude the
light. Now we have a curtain hung

around the shelf as shown by the
dotted lines in the drawing. It is
tacked along each side joist to the
edge of the center Joists. What light
gets in between the joists amounts to
nothing and the arrangement makes
a good ventilation for the closet. Try
u curtain around the cellar shelf and
see how well the fruit keeps. It also
keeps out dust and (lies to a great
extent.
The Gipsy Brown Tail.
Every farmer should take pains to
learn to recognize at sicrht the vnrinnu
stages of (lie gipsy brown tall and
many other of our insect pests, and
they should lie instructed by the state
how to manage the war against them.
If farmer A keeps his orchard and
trees free from brown tails and neighbor
11 just over the fence leaves a
lot of these pests on somo of his trees
that are out of the jurisdiction of the
town or state, how can farmer A
expect to get ahead In his tight
against the pest?

SAID BY THE YOUNGSTERS
Some Bright Remarks Worth Preserving,
That Have Fallen From
Childish Lips.
A little girl, after listening to the
hymn, "In heaven there stands an
ever open door," remarked that there j
must be two heavens, " 'cause grand- j
ina'd never had any open door where
she Is." And n dear llttlo country
laddie, visiting a city Sunday school
and hearing ahout the "many mansions"
of tho better land, later explained
that they had been "studying
all about 'Paradise Flats.' "
Ecclesiastical modes and matters I
irequenuy are puzzling to the llttlo
ones. A Hmnll Chicago citizen was taken
to a line church, where the music,
windows, furnishings, and all accessories
were as impressive as tho building.
The minister, living up to his
enviablo reputation as an orator, indulged
in a brilliant rhetorical flight.
"I know," he declared, "who gilds
the sun and silvers the stars and
paints the (lowers and tints tho sky
and lends to tho rivers their beauty,
to the ocean its Klory. to the skies
their perfect light," and so ?n through
long and effective periods Finally
came the interrogatory climax: "Who
is it, my friends, who performs all
these wonders? Who is it ? Who?"
From the front pew where the baby
listener hud been all eager attention
came a shrill, disappointed pipe:
"You said >ou knew!"
Experience Teaches.
"Sure, and Oi fink it pays to be
honest, nfther all," said l'at. "Oi
troied thot phoney weight business in
my grocery sthore lasht year, and OI

"How so? Did vou cet found out9"
asked his friend.
"No, sorr," returned T'at. "Ol made '
