If it is true that a fool is born every minute, some of us are foolish enough to be quite confident that there must have been more than one person born into the world. He who teaches an easier way is surer of an attentive hearing than he who teaches a better one. The hen and the cold storage men seem to bein “cahoots” in keeping the price of eggs out of reach of the “common people.’ Some years they have a falling out and the hen begins to “shell out’’ without notice to her partners in trust. Just at - present the greater majority of people are wishing that she would begin to ‘‘shell out.’”’ In backing out of a tight place, bet- ter look out behind or you might get stuck worse than ever. The first fall.of snow always seem to sharpen the edge of the wind and makes a little extra work around the yards, especially to those who don’t have aa “big red barn” that covers all the stock and feed. But the cows will milk as well in a stable as ini a barn, like everything else, will com to him who waits.
