The Trciimtry Doimrlmont lm pre pared n pamphlet of fifty-four pntfes (riv ing information upon every phnwj of the curronny question, which i to he freely mailed to all who Mhnll ask for It. Thero is no exctwe, therefore, for any mun who van read remaining In a tog on the Silvor question. The modern farmer in not content to ie the antiquated tool and methods of his father. In thlx ago of keen competi tion the farmer who wishes to prosper needs and (jots tho moot approved farm Inif Implements: and by reading the best agricultural literature he keep in touch with tho spirit of progress that pervades our farming communities. A reformed burglar, who has no further use for the knowledge himself, says there are three things a night thief dreads. One Is a baby, tho second Is a little whitTet dog that can sleep with both eyes open and bark when a needle falls, and the third Is a newspaper. Almost always the paper rattles or crackles when a foot touches it. Unless a burglar Is so desperate that ho will risk his own lifo, he will leave the moment he strikes a house strewn with news papers. "Why do people drink," is a question which has bothei-ed the great and small minds of the country for ages and will continue to bother them for a long time to come, yet it is an easy one and can be readily answered. They drink bo cuuso they are dry; they drink In winter to keep warm, they drink In summer to keep cool: they drink when in sorrow to drown dull care: they drink when happy to Increase their joy; they drink on account of births, baptisms and marriages; they drink to keep awake; they drink that they may sleep, but after nil, why do they drink? Mr. Belle Wolfe, editor and proprie tor of the Shippenshurg Chmiiicli, In a recent issue of that paper says: "Last week u man slipped in on us and said ho ' would rmv us every cent ho owed us if he lived until Saturday night. Wo presume the man died. Another said he would pay us in a day or two as sure as wo wore born. Query: Did the man lie or were wo never born? Another man said ho would settle as sure as shooting. We are led to the conclusion that shooting is not very curtain. Another hoped to go to the devil if he didn't pay. Have not seen him since; suppose he has gone, but trust ho has not hoped in vain. Quite . a number said they would see us to morrow. They have been stricken blind or to-morrow has not come. One man bald ho would pay us as soon as he got acute money. The man did not lie so of course ho has not had a cent since." ' A whole book might be written upon the subject of kitchen microbes, but only a few suggestions can be given in paper of this kind. The words microbe and bacteria are often used In - torch ungoably. They are both friends . and foes to the human race. When they become matter out of place they are dangerous; when they reach a point of development beyond a certain limit, whether it be in our kitchen, our system, or In fruit, once luscious but now decay ed, because of the activity of these sumo minrobes, they are dangerous; harmless when all is as it should be, when perfect cleanliness is observed. Scientists tall us that sunlight and air are our best protection against the deadly microbe. From the same source we learn that these same enemies enter our system very largely by means of our food and drink, and that our efforts for protection from them should be mostly directed to the kitchen, as the disburs ing department of the delectable micro be. Butonce has also revealed to us their favorite lodging plaoes; that they ' revel la dust, dirt, polluted water, J 1 11 Sl.l f uuvj tun uinuKi, iiibii itiuiiu in newer pipes, kitchen grease and refuse, and wherever else animal life is responsible ior putrefaction. The greasy dishcloth or "dish rag," as some people persist in calling It, and which is applicable in many cases, but which shouldn't be allowed In a well furnished kitchen the closet under the sink, where the aim never pent rates, yet where some of tbe utensils used for cooking are kept, are among the harvest fields of the kitchen microbe. Let us remember that -fcowevor pure food or water may bo at one moment, if it U' exposed to air tv t contain these busy little creature 1". rin loses Its purity and becomes unfit r or drink.
