Farmer’s Wife: “I must go home 
now, ma’am ; we’re very busy to-day ; 
going to kill an ox.” Schoolmistress : 
“ What, a whole ox at once ? ”— Le Temps. 
Farmer : “ I guess that hog’s too old 
to eat; what shall we do with him ? ” 
Hired Man : “ Too old to eat! Not much 
he ain't. He eats more’n more every 
day.”— Credit Lost.

Good-By, Old Slow !” shouted the

“Anyway,” retorted the cart-horse, “1 
am not as awkward as you are. I don’t 
fall down standing still.”— Cincinnati 
Tribune. 
HOW ABOUT A NEW 
FEED CUTTER? 1, a 
Chinese Emperor : “Why did you lose 
that battle?” General We-Run : “ The 
Japanese attacked us in our rear.” “ 1 
was informed that they attacked you in 
front.” “Yes, but that was our rear 
when they got there.”— Modes and Fab¬ 
rics. 
A suburban resident is said to have 
built his house exactly alike in the front 
and on the hack. His hope was, he ex¬ 
plained, to fool the chickens into think¬ 
ing they were on the front lawn when 
they were really in the hack yard.— 
Youth’s Companion. 
It will prove a great saving of time, 
strength, patience and nerve force and an 
economical move on your part to have one 
this fall. Then why not investigate the 
merits of the oldest and best series of cutters
