Johnny went to see the stock yards; 
Mother missed him in the jam ; 
Johnny fell into the discard. 
And came home as potted ham. —ruck.

“You say that your friend was utter¬ 
ly prostrated by a mere case of mistaken 
identity?” “Yes. He mistook a toad¬ 
stool for a mushroom.”—-Washington 
Srw. 
Pat. “What be yer charge for a fu- 
ner-’l notice in yer paper?” Editor: “Half 
a crown an inch.” Pat: “Good heavens! 
An’ me poor brother was six feet high.” 
—Tit-Bits. 
Sai.oonkeeper: “Little girl, what is 
it? I don't sell liquor to children.” Little 
Girl: “Have you got any of this good- 
natured alcohol ? I want some of it for 
papa.”—Chicago Daily News. 
Teacher: “Now. Robert, do you know 
what an isosceles triangle is?” Boy: 
“Yes’m.” Teacher: “Well, what is it?” 
Boy: “It's one uv dem t’ings I gits 
licked fer not knowin’ wot it is.”—Judge. 
Mrs. Housekeep: “I think we’ll get 
along. Bridget, if you can only manage 
not to disobey me.” New Servant: 
“Faith, we kin fix that aisy, mum. Let 
me do as Oi phase an’ don't give me any 
orders.”—Philadelphia Public Ledger. 
“You told us, boy,” the tourist said to 
the urchin who was fishing in the lake, 
“that the boat always left here at four, 
and we had waited now till a good deal 
past five.” “Oh,” said the boy. “it doesn't 
begin to run till next month.”—Tit-Bits. 
“I thought I should laugh right out,” 
said Mrs. Bunsey, “when we were at the 
Zoo to-day. Mrs. Malaprop called an 
animal a seraph. Of course, she meant a 
giraffe, but the fun of it was, it wasn't 
a giraffe at all; it was a camomile.”— 
Tit-Bits. 
“But why have you broken your en¬ 
gagement?” “Well, I simply couldn’t 
marry a man with a broken nose.” “Ah, 
I wonder how he got his nose broken, 
poor fellow!” “Oh, 1 struck him acci¬ 
dentally with my brassy when he was 
teaching me golf.”—Bystander. 
“I am afraid, madam,” said a gentle¬ 
man who was looking for country lodg¬ 
ings, “that the house is too near the sta¬ 
tion to be pleasant.” “It is a little noisy,” 
assented the landlady, “but from the front 
veranda one has such a fine view of people 
who miss the trains.”—Tit-Bits. 
Horticultural Gentleman: “You say 
here, in this article of yours, that you 
have cultivated hothouse lilac bushes that 
have attained the height of over fifty 
feet.” Literary Man: “Yes, why?” Hor¬ 
ticultural Gentleman (musingly) : “Notli- 
inn: only I wish I could lilac that.”— 
Credit Lost. 
An automobilist who was touring 
through the country saw walking ahead 
of him, a man followed by a dog. As 
the machine drew near them the dog 
started suddenly to cross the road. He 
was hit by the car and killed instantly. 
The motorist stopped his machine and 
approached the man. “I am very sorry, 
my man. that this has happened,” he 
said, “will $5 fix it?” “Oh, yes,” said 
the man, “$5 will fix it, I guess.” Pock¬ 
eting the money as the car disappeared 
in the distance, he looked down at the 
dead animal. “I wonder whose dog it 
was?” he said.—Judge’s Magazine.

THINGS 
-WORTH 
KNOWING 
If you are going to buy 
A MANURE SPREADER 
N O machine within his reach is capable of 
doing so much for the farmer as the 
modern manure spreader. 
But then it must be a machine with features— 
features of economy and efficiency. 
The I. H. C. Manure Spreader has such feat¬ 
ures. 
Any man of experience knows that a spreader 
only works perfectly when the load is level. 
The I. H. C. Spreader is the only spreader 
with a vibrating rake in front of the beater or 
cylinder which levels every load and any load 
of manure. 
Any man knows that the apron operates bet¬ 
ter when power is applied at both sides. 
The I H. C. spreader apron is driven at both 
sides from both hind wheels. 
This saves all torsion, binding, friction and 
undue strain, and consequently saves break¬ 
ages and results in lighter draft. 
One lever is better than many levers in 
operating any machine. 
The 1. H. C spreader is the only spreader 
which is controlled and operated entirely with 
one lever. 
It has ten different feeds—can be adjusted 
instantly while in motion to spread three to 
thirty loads per acre. 
Large, solid, steel axles front and rear—front 
wheels cut under—turns very short. 
Steel wheels—no rotting or drying out. Broad 
faced tires with turned in flange to keep out 
dirt, mud, etc. Lightest and strongest. 
Provided with traction lugs on rear wheels— 
will work perfectly on hard, frozen or wet 
ground. 
Made in vatious sizes to suit all require¬ 
ments. 
The I. H. C, spreader will distribute per¬ 
fectly manure of all kinds—wet, dry, mixed, 
strawy, full of stalks, frozen, caked, etc. 
It tnay be equipped with special features 
known as lime and drill attachments for dis¬ 
tributing broadcast, or in drills, fine manure, 
commercial fertilizers, lime, ashes, salt, cotton 
seed hulls, land plasters, etc. 
Remember what we have told you—it is the 
manure spreader with special features which 
all make for success.
