    THE POOREST MAN IN THE

Not he that begs upon the street,
j Or. homeless, tramps the road,
' But he who fears to squarely meet
The face of mnn and Ciod;
j IVVho dares not face the hosts of Night,
'Neath flnp of Truth unfurled,
; Who cnn't nfford to do the right
( lie's the poorest man in the world.
,Who can't nfford to spenk the truth.
To right the ancient wrong,
To take the part of hapless youth,
I The weak ngninst the strong;
( Who can't afford to shield a nnme
' From venomous arrows hurled
Be not the blind, the lame, the dumb
He's the poorest man in the world.

The Maple Leaf.
By Miss Eva Gormley.
Tall, dark, tangled pines and
pruces completely surrounded the
beautiful Lac d'Amour; the blue sun
ny June morning sky smiled at its
reflection In the lake's clear mirror.
IWIld tuneful notes of hidden birds
mingled with the perfumed whis
pered messages of the breezes and
the musical dip, dip of oars.
Helen MacNole rested a few mo
ments, allowing the light skiff to drift
Idly towards the lily beds, while she
eagerly and with extreme pleasure
drank in nil the uncultivated, primi
tive Canadian beauty of forest, lake
and sky. Two whole months at Aunt
Bophla's cottage meant a great deal
to this Boston girl, for she had never
before been in the fair province, and
very scene was new and attractive
to her.
Helen had half lost herself In a de
lightful reverie when the sound of
eplashing paddles aroused her, which
Was accompanied by a mellow tenor
.Voice that was singing with the most
enthusiastic, passionate earnestness
the sweet song of "The Maple Leaf."
The chorus ran:
The maple leaf, our emblem dear,
I The maple leaf forever.
God save our King and heaven bless
: The maple leaf forever."
r The rare voice that sang those
words quite charmed Helen, yet she
laughed softly, and a mischievous
light came Into her irresistible blue
eyes as she threw back her head and
sang In her pure soprano voice "The
Star Spangled Banner." After she
had concluded she said to herself with
a low laugh of sheer fun: "I'll show
Whoever it Is that there is a Yankee
on this little sea."
r She had scarcely finished speaking
when a pretty canoe glided around
the bend of the Lac d'Amour. Its oc
cupant, none other than the tenor
Blnger, regarded his enemy with a
half amused, half piqued look of
surprise. He was handsome. His
face was dark and vivacious; his
emlle, showing strong white teeth,
was dazzling. There was a careless
grace and freedom about his move
ments. The wind had ruffled his soft
Wack hair until it half tumbled into
his sparkling brown eyes.
Helen looked at the tenor half con
tused, half afraid, for she had not
expected to be discovered in her re
Veat and by such a well-meaning
jroung gentleman.
"Pardon, miss, If I have disturbed
you and your song," the young man
commenced.
il "You have not disturbed me at all,
Irj see, my boat has never moved
an inch," Helen replied, with an at
tempt to look grave, but for some un
known reason she burst into a hearty,
mirthful laugh.
"You are an excellent singer, miss.
Excuse my frankness, it is my mis
fortune, not my fault," the tenor said,
leisurely laying the paddle across the
canoe.
"All Yankees are good singers,"
Helen responded concisely, trying to
look utterly Blncere.
"So you're a Yankee? Yes, 1
know so by your song which sounded
a good deal like a challenge," the
other said, as ha calmly and with
open . admiration studied Helen's
proud head, crowned with braided
colls of gold-tinted brown hair, her
pink cheeks and slender, straight
form.
"Yes, I am a Yankee Miss Helen
MacNole, of Boston, Mass," Helen
replied.
"And I am Lester Lejarn, & French
Canadian Frenchman," the young
boatman retorted, with equal dignity.
Then both the boaters 'laughed mer
ri'ft, it was all so amusing.
It does not take long for two
young, happy-spirited persons to get
acquainted; when Helen's boat grated
the shore beside of Lejarn the two
bad become quite intimate. Helen,
for her part, felt in a childish mood
of enjoying the adventure. As for
Lejarn, he was very much In earnest;
lie decided that he would see more of
this charming Yankee, this Helen
MacNole, of Boston, Mass.
Helen found out from Aunt Sophia
that Lester Lejarn was the son of an
Englishman by birth and claimed his
-French descent on hrS mother's. side.
After the death of Lejarn's mother
Mr. Lejarn had come to Canada,
bringing Lester, the only child. When
Lester was but fourteen his father be
came blind, and since that time the
young Lejarn had worked in a Mon
treal business house and supported
his father.
Helen firmly put aside the fact that
Che was the only daughter of the
widowed, prosperous banker, Arthur
.MacNole, and allowed the French
tenor to take her boating, driving and
walking when he was home from
work. Finally, a message came to
toe effect that
home, as a party of wealthy New
Yorkers were coming to pass the win
ter senssn at the MacNole mansion.
At twilight, when the sky was gnu.
dlly colored by sunset, and the Lad
d'Amour was a sheet of pink crystal,
Helen walked slowly, for the last
time, down to the shore with Lejarn.
"I don't believe I care to go out on
the lake to-night," Helen said, her
voice rather low and tremulous.
"You are sorry to leave this place,
that's it?" Lejarn asked kindly. Helen
nodded.
"Why?" he continued. "I cannot
believe you have grown to love the
Maple Leaf better than the Star
Spangled Banner."
"Oh, no," Helen responded, trying
to laugh. ( She leaned against the
trunk of a huge maple tree. No par
ticular thought came to her mind, but
some strange, cold gloom settled over
her heart. Lejarn looked at her very
Intently.
The sunset had faded away, leav
ing the sky a blue, shadowy expanse,
where stars twinkled faintly. The
moon was rising above the pines and
shone upon the Lac d'Amour with a
glorious light.
"Helen, it is because you love me,"
Lejarn said softly and convincingly.
The tears coursed freely down Hel
en's cheeks.
"Helen, I love you. I've dared to,
although you are a Yankee girl," he
smiled, "but I cannot claim you you
would not marry a poor Frenchman,
would you?"
Helen dashed the tears from her
eyes and nodded, saying, in a pained
voice: "But my father."
"Ah, I realize," Lejarn said abrupt
ly, then, "Here, Helen, take this Ma
ple Leaf pin, and when I can stand on
an equal footing with you I'll come to
claim you. It will take time to build
myself up in business, perhaps you
may tire of waiting, but remember I
will always love you," and Lejarn
pinned the silver token onto Helen's
dress; he clasped those strong arms
about her for a moment, and only the
lapping waves and her sobs were
heard. She almost pushed Lejarn
away and fled from the lake.
Hushed woodlands and tranquil
bay met the tired eyes of the passen
gers on board of the boat which was
slowly drifting into the Canadian har
bor. Helen, clad in black, her face rath
er pale and sad, looked back at the
vast extent of ocean behind her and
sighed. She would never return. Her
father had died, and the heavily mort
gaged estate had been confiscated, all
within the year that she had spent
since she left Canada the previous
fall. Helen was returning to make
her home with Aunt Sophia.
From the time she left the boat un
til she got out of the pony cart at her
aunt's cottage, Helen mused doubt
fully, hopefully. Lejarn was in that
town yet, so she learned but had he
forgotten her after that brief summer
acquaintance?
Although fatigued, that same even
ing Helen walked through the woods
to the lake. She even donned the
same muslin gown she had worn that
night when she and Lejarn had stood
on the shore, and fastened the little
maple leaf pin to the collar. The lit
tle boat was still .there and she got in.
For a time she rowed aimlessly, gaz
ing beyond the black pines, into the
brilliant, glowing west.
Lejarn had forgotten her, prob
ably, and she must forget him. Helen
took off the pin and held it in her
hand a moment. At that instant a
rustling in the bushes disturbed her
and looking up she saw Lester Le
jarn standing on the gleaming strand
of the Lac d'Amour.
"Helen!" he uttered; his face grew
pale with sudden surprise. With a
hasty movement he started to un
loose the remaining craft. that was
tied to the stake, but Helen shook her
head, and with a few strokes brought
her boat to the shore.
"Pardon me. Miss MacNole, I have
again intruded upon your solitude
and on a sadder occasion." Lejarn
glanced at the black ribbon band on
Helen's sleeve.
Helen nodded and stood silently be
fore the tenor, who looked at her
questioning!'.
"I have not become wealthy enough
yet to claim you but probably you
cad forgotten me " he began In a
choking voice. Then he told her how
he had struggled to advance is
iruBiutna uuu uuw am xamer naa aiea,
too, and left him utterly alone. Helen
told her own grief In a few words.
Then there was silence a few mo
ments; Lejarn searched for the pin.
nut did not see it. Helen, seeing the
action, blushed faintly as she un
closed her hand and showed the little
emblem.
The Lac d'Amour grew dark and
pine fragrance filled the air. Again
the moon shone brightly and the wat
ers of the lake lapped a soft, tender
song, not marred by sobs of sorrow,
but a happy -silence told the simple
tnree-worded story more eloquently
than ever before. Far across, on the
opposite side of the lake, children's
voices were singing:
"The maple leaf, our emblem dear.
The maple leaf forever.
God save our King and heaven bless
The maple leaf forever."
And Helen walked through the si
lent aisles of the forest with Lejarn,
never more to leave the region of the
Lac d'Amour. Boston Post.

Measuring Hay in the Stars.
Where it is necessary to arrive at
the total amount of hay by measuring
In the stack the following rulo ap
plies, says the Homestead: Find the
distance from the ground on one side
up over the stack to- the ground on
the other side. Then measure the
width of the stack at the base, add
these two numbers aud divide by
four, and this will give one side ot a
square representing the same area
as the end of the stack. Multiply this
number by Itself and this result by
the length of the whole stack, and
this will give the cubic feet repre
sented by the stack, which, divided
by 512, the number of cubic feet In
a ton, gives the number of tons.
Where the stack Is very high and
settled or where It is well packed In
a shed, divide In the last Instnnee by a
number between 350 and 42 5.
Don't Neglect the Coif.
The fanner owning forty acres or
more of land, who does not raise at
least one colt every year1 Is not doing
his best. The.mare will do most kinds
of farm work and raise her colt with
out much loss of time. If the colt is
properly handled from the beginning
it will not give much trouble. Never
allow it to run after Itg mother when
she is working. This worries and
frets the mare, and It wears out the
colt. Keep !t at the barn, loose In a
box stall, and tempt it with a little
clover hay and oats. Early colts will
be weaned pretty soon now. If they
hove been brought up to this point
right, weaning does not mean much.
Feed more frequently with sweet
clover hay, outs and corn, and the
colt will soon be able to take care
of itself. Keop it in the barn at night
and allow it to run with other young
stock in the pasture during the day.

Mangels or Turnips For Cows.
Where silos are not had to provide
succulent feed for dairy cows, many
do the next host thing by growing
turnips or mangels. There is always
the one objection to turnips the
risk of tainting the milk; and espe
cially does this turnip flavor develop
in butter after it is held some time.
It is claimed that if you feed turnips
directly after the niornlns milking
there is no danger of taint; however,
we would not care to risk our repu
tation as a butter maker on it. If
you cannot put up silnge and must
have something else, why not raise
mangels? You can raise more of
them to the acre than you can turnips,
and you can avoid the risk of turnip
taint. But whatever you do, don't
fall on a good store of succulent feed
for next winter. Cows ,do their best
when on clover. You can provide
sweet clover hay for next winter, but
succulence must come from some oth
er source. Weekly Witness.

Fertilizer Experiment.
The Department of Agriculture has
received a "report from Germany of
experiments with barnyard manure
showing that deep stall manure is
much more effective than that from
heaps. The loss of nitrogen in the
heap was greatly reduced by spread
ing the fresh manure on a layer of
old manure. Gypsum was ineffective
and is condemned as a preservative.
The best results were obtained by
preserving the urine from the stalls
by iiself and rotting the manure and
litter with water.
Green manuring with beans and
peas gave good results in comparison
with the manure on beets and oats.
With potatoes the results were very
variable. Tho success of green man
ures depends more largely upon the
rainfall during the period of growth
than upon the character of sod. Ex
periments with yellow clover and ser
radella seeded between the rows of
grain indicate this to be a bad prac
tice when the green manure crops de
velop sufficiently to pffect injuriously
the growth of the grain.
In comparative tests of nitrate of
soda, sulphate of ammonia and lime
nitrogen on humus and heavy loose
learns and on a sandy soil with bar-
ley, potatoes and sugar beets, it was
found that in cases in which the nit
rogenous fertilizers caused a large in
crease in yield the nitrate of soda
gave the highest returns, ammonium
sulphate next, and lime nitrogen the
smallest. When the increases in yield
were small the effect of the fertil
izers was very nearly the same, the
less active material giving a slightly
greater increase than the nitrate.
The best results were obtained with
the less active fertilizers in the case
of potatoes. The results further in
dicate that It is a mistake to apply
these fertilizers on sandy soils in the
fall. Much better results, however,
may be obtained by fall application
on the better class ot soils.
Grov.lng Cow Feed Stuff.
The various State experiment sta
tions ore doing a good work In dem
onstrating that cow feed stuff may be
fii-owli on the farm, and the saving
incident. . The Tennessee Station In
a bulletin throws some good light
on the subject, In the matter of feed
ing these along with corn silage. It
says that a ton of alfalfa or cow pea
hay Way be produced at a coat of
from S3 to $5, whereas wheat bran
costs from $20 to $25. From two
to three tons of cow pea hay and
from three to five tons of alfalfa can
be obtained from an aero of land;
hence there is a great advantage lit
the utilization of these roughnesses
in the place of wheat bran.
Alfalfa and cow pea hay cannot
be substituted to the best advantage
for cottonseed meal, as this food
stuff is so very rich In protein that
a larger bulk must be consumed than
the capacity of the average cow will
permit.
The substitution of a roughness
rich in protein for an expensive con
centrate will enable the dairyman to
make milk and butter at a less cost
and will thus solve one of his most
serious problems.
In substituting alfalfa hay for
wheat bran It will be best to allow
one and one-half pounds of alfalfa
to each pound of wheat bran, and
the results are likely to prove more
satisfactory if the alfalfa is fed In a
finely chopped condition. .
These tests indicate that with al
falfa hay at S10 a ton and wheat
bran at $20 the saving effected by
substituting 'alfalfa for wheat bran
would be $2 for every 100 pounds
of butter, and 19.8c for every 100
pounds of milk. The farmer could
thus afford to sell his milk for 19.8
cents a hundred less than he now re
ceives and his butter for about 11
cents, as compared with 25 cents a
pound.
These experiments show why al
falfa has been frequently used as. a
basis of manufactured foodstufs, aud
Indicate that the farmer who can
grow it makes a mistake in purchas
ing artificial stuffs of which 1 forms
the basis.
When alfalfa was fed under the
most favorable conditions a gallon of
::iilk was obtained for 5.7 cents and
a pound of butter for 10 cents.
When cow pea hay was fed the low
est cost of a gallon of milk was 5.2
cents and of a pound of butter 3.4
rents. In localities where peas have
grown well it can bo utilized to re
place wheat bran, and in sections
where alfalfa can be grown this crop
can be substituted for cow pea hay
with satisfaction. Indiana Farmer.
Flowers on the Form.
Quite often we read articles, hear
expressions, and observe cases ot
farm homes unadorned with flowers
of any sort.
The explanation or excuse given, Is
that usually so much hard work Is
necessary and that there is so little
spare time, often this Is true, I fear,
but in some cases much of the neces
sary hard work can be avoided by
proper management. However, the
main reason why so many farm homes
are devoid ot Cowers is that they are
being rented. Many live but one
year on the same place and others
have the assurance of the place but
for one year. In both cases there is
scant encouragement to make flower
beds.
If the grounds are "run wild," or
have a sod covering, it is difficult to
prepare the soil. To do nicely, the
soil must be cultivated through one
season before most flowers do well.
It this is impossible the only way
would be to grow a row, or a bed of
flowers, in the vegetable garden.
All the beautiful shrubs and peren
nials are impractical for the renters,
unless they know they have the place
for a number of years; then when
moving time comes, it is almost like
tearing one's self loose to leave the
plants.
Tulips, hyacinths and crocus may
be set by the fall movers, and the
cherry blooms will well repay the
small expense and labor required for
planting, but iris, bleeding heart,
lilies and peonies are among the
"can't haves," as their beauty in
creases through long establishment.
When passing the country homes,
don't criticise the flowerless condi
tion of the- yards too much, until you
know all the circumstances. E. C,

CHARTING THE
SEA WRECKAGE.
Wireless Tails Ships of Obstruc
tions at Sea In Order That They
May Be Avoided.
When a man driving a horse or mo
tor car sees a re'd light ahead, he is
likely to slow .up or go mere careful
ly, and when a sea captain arrives in
a region where he knows he may en
counter a floating obstruction, you
may be certain he'wlll send a man
aloft to scan tho tumbling sea.
Ot counse, It Is more difficult to lo
cate the dangerous things afloat; at
the same time, Uricle Sam, through
his Hydrographlc Office, manages to
keep a record of nearly every serious
obstacle in the ocean. Not many ot
the land-lubbers who go to Europe
know that their vessel's skipper has
in the chart-house a map showing the
location of Icebergs and field ice in
the North Atlantic, the posttlon of
wreckage and derelicts, as last re
ported, as well as the latitude and
longitude of drifting buoys that
broke loose from their moorings
months, perhaps years, before. Lit
tle triangles and circles denote the
ice, derelicts are represented by
sketches ot ships floating on even
keel or bottom up, as the case may
be, while symbols like the letter "1"
and a demijohn indicate buoys.
The Hydrographlc Office is investi
gating port facilities, aberration ot
sound, great waves, spontaneous com
bustion, stranding, collisions, cccan
currents and routes, improvement of
signalling in the merchant marine,
stellar navigation, value and correct
ness of charts, and tho mariner who
furnishes such data receives pilot
charts free of cost and franked envel
opes for mailing the hydrographlc
forms. If he happens to bo at a for
eign port all he has to do Is to gjve
his data to the American consul, who
will mail the forms home.
But the pilot chart Is not the only
means by which tho Hydrographlc
Office disseminates information to
navigators. By direction of the Bu
reau of Equipment, the United States
naval wireless stations on the Atlan
tic and Pacific seaboard are furnished
dally, or as often as occasion war
rants, with facts relating to ocean ob
structions, i
These facts nre sent broadcast by
wireless three times at Intervals of
eight hours by the stations furnished
with them. The hours selected are 6
a. m., 2 p. m. and 10 p. m., local
standard .time. Messages open with
the word "obstruction," and then fol
low latitude and longitude or bear
ing, the nature of the obstruction,
and when it was last sighted. These
messages and otherhydrographlc data
are kept on fllo at the wireless sta
tions, and such Information Is trans
mitted to vessels which send wireless
requests. Masters of passing ships
are also asked to acquaint the wire
less stations with all obstructions
they have seen, so that fellow marin
ers may have the benefit of their experience.
CO-OrERATIVE FARMING.
Many Thousands of Associations In
Germany to Help Agriculture.
At the close of 1905 17,162 co-operative
farming associations existed
in the German Empire, with a mem
bership of more than 1,000,000
farmers; 16,230 of the above number
of associations were confederated.
Out of the 9411 associations operat
ing in Prussia 6059 facilitated credits
to farmers, 776 attended to the sup
ply and demand and 172S to dairying.
In Bavaria 2613 of the 3294 asso
ciations dedicated their work to fur
nishing credits to agricultural under
takings, 234 to Biipply and demand,
247 to dairying and 200 to various
other purposes, all, however, foster
ing mutual assistance to husbandmen
and thus redounding to their benefit
The co-operative associations ot
credit expend loans amounting to, on
the average, from $17,410,000 to
$73,340,000 annually. In 1905 the
co-operative bodies for the creation
of demand purchased fertilizers, for
age, seed, coal and other Items
amounting to $12,062,500.
On the other hand, the centres ot
supply and dairying, which in a com
paratively short time have entered a
career of great prosperity, realized
more than $965,000 on their transac
tions. From The Village.

TRADE STILL EXPANDING
Outputs of Plants Growing In Volume
to Meet Growing Demand Fail
ures Less In Number.
New York. "Bradstreet's" says
that as the season advances, . trade
tends to show further expansion and
industrial lines are becoming more
active. Outputs are .being Increased
by plants already in operation and fre
quent reports come in hand of re
sumption by concerns that have been
shut down for some time past. Un
der tho circumstances employment ia
more general, pay rolls are larger
and more money is available for
spending. In a nutshell, trade is
good; Industry, particularly iron and
eteel, ia actbve, outputs are close to
normal and prospects lare pleasant,
the most notable drawbacks being re
duced yields of cotton and a smaller
than earlier expected corn crop.
Within the week house trade has
expanded in marked degree, especial
activity belns; noticed in demand for
dry goods nnd millinery. Buyers
have been in the markets in large
numbers and while they have taken
hold quite freely, they are neverthe
less exercising much care in making
purchases. There 1s apparently lit
tle disposition to load up with expen
sive goods, especially In sections
where cotton and corn have not main
tained earlier promise.
In some Instances shipping depart
ments of jobbing houses are working
overtime in order to get goods out
promptly. Early fall displays have
helped retail trade a little, but on the
Whole that line of business remains
quiet. Wheat Is moving to market,
thouph the Northwest has not ship
