The great succe- ? thut invariably has followed the application of intel ligent system to farm uiuusge meut demonstrates th* truth of this statement. The small farm quite as mach as the large farm-lu fact, more so-requires systematic farm management. Tho large farm often is easier and cheaper to manage titan thc small farm, since to get prout such Inten sive methods us a small farm re- % quires ure not needed. T STORING CELERY.

They hare no iden of turning back, hut to cross that river they must lin ve a brid/e, nnd the making of this bridge taken time, and probably jibe engineers o' the nrmy bave to bustle np to the fr mt. The making of an ant bridge is one of the most wonderful things bi the world.. The ants swarm on a tree, choosing one Vblcb overhangs the riv er. Cpon tho bough which reaches farthest over the stream they mass themselves and begin to form a thick rope of their own bodies. This they do by means of holding on firmly with their hind legs, while -?th the front i pair of legs they grasi. the bodies ..of other ants. Constantly fresh ants range themselves tn front, end so the rope grows and grows until st hist lt touches tho water. c By and by the floating chain bj car ried hy the current toward the other side, where probably grass sud great reeda spring out cf the water. The foremost ants Seise upon the first ob ject they touch, nnd from one slender foothold to another they climb until ! at inst they reach land. Tho nearest ?ree la quickly climbed, the foremost pairs of legs doing ali the work, and Very soon thc living rope Ia swinging hlgb above the rjver. The bridge la mntle. and quickly the army crosses the ?trenm. Du Chulllu.
