Wednesday we took a look over the great faim known as the Forehand ranch. Mr. E.

The day we were there we found them shearing sheep; they have about 60 head in cluding lambs. Nice spring pigs, over a hundred and more sows to farrow. Butter is made, no cream sold; here you’l find a fine milk house, strong, never failing spring on the bluff side conducted by pipas to house and barn yard. The Culver family hails from Platteville and are well satisfied with the place and the people they so far have got acquaint ed with. Some of this farm land is largely mixed with sand and should be either in rye or grass; during th? past windy days, the sand on some of these fields actually drifted like snow in the fence raw. Crops all look fairly well except corn, about 35 acres had to be replanted. We took dinner with the good people and we fairly reveled in cream on the pudding and even cream on pie.

It is unlucky to give a lover any thing sharp —even a sharp answer. A married man never appreciates the symphony of love unless he is al lowed to lead the owhestra while his wife plays second fiddle. A woman is such a helpless little thing that most men fancy it would be impossible for her to vote with one hand and curl her hair with the other. The only thing constant about a man’s heart is its constant change. Helps Some. Conscience keeps some men good ind lack of opportunity also helps the general average some. Atchison Jlobe.
