Character
The noblest thing in the world
today is good character. To a
extent, character is moulded by
example. The company that is
kept and the boofcs which are
read not only make manifest to
ethers the teat and tendence of
the individual but they also go
very far toward forming his
character and determining his
destimy.—Forgan Eagle.

Raising Goldfish.
Perhaps twenty years ago a farm In
the Middle West had several small
spriug-fed ponds In which bass wera
raised. A few goldfish were |iut Into
the ponds, says the Guide te^fature,
and the venture was so successful that
today the goldfish farm produces
more than half the goldfish sold Id
the United States. The greater num-
ber of the hatch sire marketed the first
year. The remainder of the fish are
specially fed to bring them to the
larger size required by special cus-
tomers. Varieties raised for commer>
cial purposes are comets, nymphs, fan-
lalls, telescopes and Chinese moors,
that amazing variation which is of a
dense, velvety black.

torches attract the weevils, and soon-
er or later a large share of them are
singed and fall into the kerosene—
