are of two types. Those of one are

And a stanch old heart Is he
How closely he twlneth, how tight ha olings
To his friend the huge Oak Tree I
And shyly he troileth along the ground.
And his leaves he gently waves,
As he joyously hogs and crawleth around
The rich mold of deadmen's graves.
Creeping where grim death has been.
A rare old plant is the Ivy Green,
Whole ages have fled and their works decayed.
And nations have scattered been
But the stout old Ivy shall never fade
Prom Its hale and hearty green.

For the stateliest building man can raise

Mrs. Carrie Nation, as her name
would Indicate, says The Commoner
has succeeded in making herself more
than a stale affUir. Her attempt to
cure lawlessness by lawlessness baa
aroused discussion everywhere. She
has already, reached.a degree of eml-.
nence which'has excited the attention
of cartoonists, and hatchet brigades are
being organized In various cities in her
honor. KaiiBas'haa a constitutional
amendment as well as a statute pro
hibiting the-sale of liquor, but, aa is
well known, prohibition is not enforced
in commuqities where the local senti
ment is againBt it. Mrs. Nation acts upon
the theory that the saloon ls an outlaw
in Kansas and that saloon keepers can
not invoke the protection of the law
when they, tbemselves disregard it.
While no defense can be made of law'
less'methods in enforcing law, those
who, condemn: Mrs. Nation must,. in
order, to be consistent, also condemn,
the violation of the liquor laws. The
Kansas crusade has already served a
letter In that state, and now that pub
lic attention has been directed toward
the subject, it Is probable that the law
will either be enforced or the question
resubmitted. A law '.that is not en
forced breedB contempt for law.

Hints For Dairymen,
iiemember that the cow's digestive
system is not proof against bad feed.
So dairyman can afford to hire ill

Names Por Parma,
The Country Gentleman, and other
papers devoted to farms and farming,
are advocating the naming of American
farms. They cite the well known coun
try places of Mt.' Vernon, The Hermit'
age, Monticello, when American states
men lived and died, They also cite the
habit aa prevalent in Europe, especially
in England where country life has an
added charm because of the quaintly
named places.
The habit is not entirely unknown In
the west. There are many farma which
have been aptly named. The farina d»
voted to stock breeding have been es
pecially favored in this respect. But
giving a name to every farm would
have disadvantages as well as advant
ages. There are numberless farms in
this country of small individual hold'
ings. They are now known by the
names of their proprietors. To give
them an additional name would simply
lead to confusion. A perfect babel
wonldbe the result. Even the ratal
mall carrlen might be confounded In
such a multitude of names. It wonld:
be a great deal better tor farmers to put
up signs, bearing their own names, just
as business men do in cities.
But the name ot the farmer who
farms the farm 4s much more import'
ant.

his farm, it can do no harm,, but, (n the

cases where a targe fan%, amounting to

on the farm.
