THE VARSITY LETTER.
To the College Man It Is as a Flag to
a Nation.
What a flag is to a nation a varsity
letter is to a college man. Like a ban-
ner, a varsity letter is clustered around
with comedies and tragedies, with
yearnings and heartburnings. The
“FH” of Harvard, the “Y" of Yale, the
“pP* of Princeton and the varsity let-
ters of the various other colleges and
universities have meanings to college |
wien which never occur to others. And |
Jere are strict rules and conditions |
surrounding the letters.
Every Harvard athlete who wins an
«“H" sweater must obey the unwritten |
rule of that university—the rule which |
gays succinctly that an “H" sweater
must not be displayed save on the field |
of action. Even in such appropriate
places it ought not to make its appear-
ance with excessive frequency. On or

Yale a “Y"” man, If he be a modest
fellow generally, may appear even in
Chapel street in his “Y" sweater, but
that sort of thing at Cambridge Is ab- |
solutely prohibited.
It is generally thought that the man
who would display his “H" in the
streets or in the “yard” Is the sort of
man who wishes people to know that
he nas done something. Therefore, the
argument runs, he is the sort of man
who should feel the force of the gen- |

Of late years the custom has grown
up of giving some sort of “H" recog-

In basket ball the athletic powers

a white “H™ which contains between
its uprights two small “B's.”
The varsity tennis men get a white
gweater with a red “H.” in the lines
of which are small “T's.”
The hockey men, who are strongly in
touch with the football team, earn an

—1f ashes and hen manure are mixel
together before being applied to the soil
there will bea loss of ammonia from the
poultry droppings, which will greatly les-
sen the value. The ashes should be put on
after the manure has been mixed with the
soil. In this way the ammonia will be
ahsorhed by it and remain for the use of
the crop. Wood ashes make a valuable ap-
plication to soils deficient in potash, and
hasten the decomposition of coarse ma-
nures,
—It is impertant that breeding animals
have laxative feeds when they are put up
on dry feeds after being taken from the
pasture. Such articles as oil meal, flaxbeed
meal, ete., should enter largely into the
ration. When animals are changed from
pasture to dry feeding there is a tendenoy
to constipation, and steps must be taken to
have the bowels move freely, or there is
danger of serious trouble. In case the
ahove articies do not have the desired effect,
Epsom eaits or raw linseed oil
used.
—Wiunter is a good season for farmers to
count up the losses they have sustained
and find out how they may be avoided io
th: foture. A little studious reflection
will convince many a farmer that there are
many continuous and unnecessary leaks on
his farm, which might be stopped. Little
wastes are oftena great source of loss.
Feeding fodder in the barnyard, manure
leaching under the eaves of the barn, cold
stables that make it necessary to provide
extra rations to counteract the rigors of
winter, not having a place for everything
in the barn, so when wanted no nnneces-
gary time is lost in hunting for things, and
many other little things that in the long
run hecome really expensive obstacles.
—S8heep as Scavengers.—A writer in the
American Sheep Breeder says: We are
wintering 37 ewes on clover hay, corn
stalks and clean, bright oats straw. Last
summer I turned my sheep in a stubble
field where there was a patch of Cavada
thisties that had been out before harvest to
prevent them from going to seed. The
second growth was about six inches high
and very brushy. The sheep browsed
every one close to the gronud. Soon after
I plowed the field, but whenever the sheep
orossed it they would go to the thistle
patch and eat all the roots they could
find. The flock was not starved down to
thistles, but were in such shape that four
of them took second prize at the county
fair under strong competition. No doubt
