It was Mr, Goddard's suggestion that an exhibit would be instructive, *she was anxious to see what .the .farmers were doing m this vicinity. Mr, Goddard is an expert on the corn , bastion, and many farmers have noth tied the committee that they would enter samples as a test, for their own benefit. Every farmer iu this vicinity should assist in making this exhibit the larg. eat of the kind that ever took place in the county. ■ .' ■ J'he institute will be held Wednes­ day and Thursday- December 23 and 29. - ■ • ; ■ The Jamestown Journal gives .this kindly hint to the patrons of the ru­ ral mail routes which is timely indeed. “The time of year is here when the rural mail camera will be bundled up in warm wraps and mittens to protect them from the elements, If you have an eye to their comfort discontinue the practice of dropping your letters and a number of pennies into your mail box, making it necessary fur the the carrier to pull oft' his warm mit­ tens and fish around on the bottom of an iron box after them, exposing his hand to the chilly blasts and causing unnecessary delay. Buy a quantity of postage Stamps uad'place them upon your letters and be sure to stand your letters in the rack provided fur that purpose. Iu this way tbe carrier can gather tbem up hurriedly and without exposing his hahds so the cold winds. Make bis burden light for. bis tnBk is an arduous one at beet, > liev.

In the^woods, especially under oak trees, you will often find brown balls about the size of a walnut, which when stepped Upon explode with a loud bang,. The proper name for these little balls is oak apples, or galls. I f you cut one Open carefully so as not to get any of the brown dust, with which it is partly filled, in your eyes you will discover right in the center a tiny cell in which a little worm has lived and grown up. I n the first place, the gall fly, a small insect with four wings, lays an egg in the tissue of an oak leaf. The egg soon hatches into a lam . The larva is a hungry little fellow, for he begins to eat right away, and while he feeds his house grows around him until, when iu ll grown, he finds himSelf on the inside of What we commonly call a puffball. He then eats his way out, and the first strong wind tumbles his house down to. the ground. In Doubt. This is from Sir Archibald Gei- kie’s reminiscences:.A country doc­ tor who was attending a laird had instructed the butler of the hope in the art of taking and recording his master's •temperature with o thermometer On repairing to the house one morning lie was met by the butler* to whom he said, “Well; John, I hope the laird's temperature Is not aiiyhigher today” The matt looked puzzled for a moment and tfcen replied: “Well, 1 was just wonderin' that Xiylel', Ye see, he died at twaV M ock ."
