Maladden, 14ch. 25.-The pretty sun
shiny days, fif'' (ackling of hens and
the farniers out in shirt-sleeves re
pairing lot fences tell uts more plain'
ly than words, that the husy spring
days are with us. The farincrs of the
United :'tates face a stpetndous, as
well as nonentous task. I ct. the call
of our own soldiers, the call of our
allies, the call of the starved little
ones of war-cursed l' urope cause each
'tf uts to work a little harder, practic
a little ;elf-de(nial while we answer
their call heartily and cheerily, "Yes,
yes, he of good leart, Wjh shall f'eed
you, God willing."

It was a most pleasant occasion.
Our grain is coming out nicely,
which verities our statement that
grain sown in (1r111 is seldom killed.
We are getting ine supply of eggs. if
you expect priolit from hens they must
be attended to carefully. A ration of
corn once a day will help to put hens
in at condition to lay. About sunset
give a mash of bran shorts with a few
pods of red pepper chopped line. The
