Farm Notes. ~
Pumkins should not be planted in the
corn rows until the corn has been thor-
oughly cultivated and the grass kept out.
A pumpkin vine among the corn rows
sometimes interferes with thorough cul-
tivation and harbors weeds. It docs not
pay to grow pumpkins if done at the ex-
pense of injury to the corn crop.
Pumpkins may be planted among the
corn crop, however, and with profit, if
the ground is kept clean and no weeds
allowed to seed.
Flies and other insects often cause the
stock to lose flesh, even when the best
care is given. The small insects may
give more trouble than the larger, being |
more numerous. Horses should be pro-
tected with nets whenever possible, and
the pens and stalls should be kept clean.
The hog-pen is a fruitful source of in-
sects,and should be well littered with dry
dirt to absorb all liquids.
The prune, which belong to the plum
family, will thrive in nearly all sections,
but if grown near plum trees the fruit
of both varieties will be injured, as the
prune and plum hybridize. The trees
bear when 2 years old, and give heavy
crops when 4 years old. They should
have the same cultivation as is given the
peach. The fruit is free stone, and of a
bluish color.
The cheapest pork is msde by the
wise use of clover pasture. The compo-
sition of the plant meets the wants of
the animal system to make a rap growth.
The season favoring the growth of the
plant is most favorable to animal growth,
particularly swine, when they have
good shade and water. The animal di-
gestive organs do not convert themselves
into a furnace as in the winter to keep
the body warm.
Has anybody found out how cheap a
pound of butter can be produced? It
is said J. N. Muncey, a well-known
Towa Holstein breeder, has been experi-
menting with a view to finding out the
approximate cost of a pound of milk
and a pound of.-Dbutter. The results
with two cows (Holsteins) were an
average food cost of 38 2-10 cents per
100 pounds of milk, and a trifle over 8
1-10 cents per pound for butter.
The question as to the best time to
prune fruit trees was discussed at length
at the meeting of the Towa State Horti-
cultural Society two years ago, and a
resolution was passed by unanimous vote
favoring the idea that the best time to
prune fruits is when the leaves are
about two-thirds grown in spring.
Mr. Andrew Burnett, of Wellesley,
Mass., as recorded by the New England
Farmer, is a believer in hornless cattle.
The head of his herd is a bull, half
Holstein and half Jamestown (polled),
and all of the calves are hornless. The
bull has horns which were loose and
movable up to six months ago, when
they hardened and became fixed.
The facts brought out by experiments
in the Wisconsin University show that
of the first pint of milk drawn from a
cow it would take seventy-five pounds
of milk to make a pound of butter,
while that of the last and thirteenth pint
drawn 100 pounds would make 9.561
pounds of butter—all from the same
cow and from the same milking.
A gain in one direction may some-
times entail a loss in some other quarter.
The bountiiul rains of this season have
given the crops an excellent opportuni-
ty, especially corn, but rains also benefit
weeds and increase the labor of cultiva-
tion. The work is necessary and should
not be neglected, as it may entail greater
labor next season.
The best time to use the cultivator is
on warm, dry days. All weeds and grass
will then be quickly killed by the sun,
and will have no opportunity to take
root and grow. If the ground is damp
when it is cultivated the weeds and grass
will not be entirely destroyed and the
work may have to be done over again.
July is the month when the melons,
squash and cucumbers will make. quick
and abundant growth. If the grass has
been cleaned out it is best to disturb the
vines as little as possible now, but any
weeds appearing among the vinesshould
be pulled out and thrown on the com-
post heap.
Denmark expends $55,000 yearly for
the maintenance of dairy schools. The
result is an immense improvement in
the quality of the dairy product, and an
increase within twenty years in Dan-
mark’s butter export from $2000,000
to $13,000,000 annually.
Before farrowing sows are the better
for an abundance of exercise; and should
have all they will take; and as soon af-
ter this event us they want to let them
return to their accustomed excreise. But
do not make asow take exercise by com-
pelling her to forage for a living.
Professor L. B. Arnold says that a
cow going into a stable filled with the
ordor of solid and hquid excrements will
carry it into her milk in fifteen minutes.
For this reason he insists that stables
should be ventilated in such a way that
pure air will come to the cattle from the
front.
Filthy quarters cause lice on all class-
es of stock, and at this season the ver-
min multiply very rapidly. An animal
that is infested vith vermin cannot be
kept in good condition, even with thé
best of feeding.
The hens will begin to moult. Keep
the hens that moult early, as they will
lay in winter. Late pullets will seldom
lay befcre nextspring, but pullets hatch-
ed not later than Aprilshould lay in No-
vember.
Horses should have at least two hours
rest at noon. On very warm days hosr-
es suffer severely. They should be
swabbed and wiped dry.
Grass growing around peach trees will
do the trees more injury than any other
source of damuge. The peach orchard
requires thorough cultivation.
Wagons and ca» at are used daily
should have the a ws well greased at
least three times a week. It lessens the
work of the horses.
Bulls are very treachérous. It is usu-
ally the gentle bufl that injures his keep-
er. The older they become the more
dangerous they are.
It will pay to shake off a large pro-
portion of the fruit from trees that are
overloaded.
Overland Stage-Drivers.
Interesting Characters No Longer Found
on the Plains.
There is one class of men who are no
longer known to the frontiers. It is the
overland stage-driver as he existed in
the days before the whistle of a locomo-
tive was heard on the Western bank of
the Missouri. Those who have come
here on the railway and in the Pullman
car have never seen him, for with the
railways their occupation was gone and
they soon became scattered. The early
plainsmen knew them and entertained
for them a hearty respect. They were
a brave, hardy, rough, big-hearted class
of fellows, with big virtues and big fuults,
Many were unlettered and brutal; some
were natural gentlemen and dimonds in
the rough. As a class they were honest
and possessed of a steady nerve, a cool
daring, a sterling integrity, which sur-
passed that of other men. The instances
where they gave up the treasure box ex-
cept under the muzzle of a road agent’s
shotgun are extremely rare—so rare, in
fact, that they can be counted on one’s
fingers, while not a few fell dead in the
boot rather than yield to that always
startling order, “Throw out the box.”
It was during the 60s that the over-
land stage-drive was in the full enjoy-
ment of his power and his fame. Denver
was always one of the headquarters of
the line, the drivers, with their corduroy
or velvet suits, broad-brimmed hats,
bronzed faces and sturdy forms, being
familiar figures on our streets. It was
8 ways a real pleasure to see them han-
dle their splendid teams. Standing in
front of the old News office onany morn-
ing, one would hear the rattle of the
coach. Round the corner from the old
barn at the corner of Arapahoe and
Fifteenth, two prancing leaders would
come insight on the gallop, then the
swings and wheelers, on a brisk trot,
the coach turning a circle of almost
mathematical accuracy, while on the
box sat the driver, bandling the reins
with an ease and grace and self posses-
sion that showed himself the master of
the six-in-hand. The rounds of the
hotels were made, the stop at the office
for the treasure box and way bill, and
then away at a gallop for the long jour-
ney across the plains, or over the moun-
tains to Salt Lake.
Many columns might be written about
the old stage-drivers, but there is one
only who can bementiored at this time,
and one whose name is familiar to all
old time citizens, and that is the name
of Billy Opdyke. Billy was the most
celebrated of the mountain drivers who
drove between Denver and Central, and
on this line he drove for many years.
He was a fair representative of the class
as already desribed, but especially cel-
ebrated for his strength, skill, nerve and
integrity. The writer knew him well
and rode with him frequently, and can-
not recall a single accident which ever
happened to his coach. The road was
fair for a mountain highway, but some
parts of it ware dangerous, particularly
Guy Hill and Smith Hill in icy weather.
But over this steep and winding way,
through mountain storm, and risking all
the perils of snow and ice, Billy Opdyke
drove his coach for yearsand never killed
or injured a passenger. The treasure-box
was always safe in his care. Frequent-
ly it contained thousands both in bullion
and currency, but when trusted to his
care it always reached its destination
untouched and unharmed. He was fre-
quently approached by road agents or
their confederates, but Bill's integrity was
as sure as the strength of his arm. The
treasure box never could have left the
boot of his coach without Bill's life had
gone with it.
Bill's favorite team was known as
the “mountain maids.” It was com-
po el of five handsome bay mares
and one bay horse, “Old Joe,”
who was the nigh leader. Six finer
animals never went in harness. They
were fleet, strong, spirited, well-trained,
and recognized their driver’s voice on the
instant. There was not a horse in the
team valued at less than $300, and the
off leader, ¢Mollie,” had been bought
out of a buggy in Denver by Supt. Ben-
ham for $400. It was with this team that
in 1868 Billy Opdyke drove Generals
Grant, Sheridan and Dent from the
summit of Guy Hill to Golden City—
nine miles—in thirty-six-minutes. Grant
never forgot the ride, and Billy Opdyke
always recalled it as the proudest period
of his life when the great commander
sat on the box besides him and praised
the beauty and speed and spirit of his
“mountain maid’ team.
After the stage line was withdrawn,
Opdyke lived for a time at Idaho Springs
and finally removed to Poncha Springs,
where he died about five years ago. He
was only a stage-driver, but he had a
brave, generous heart, his integrity was
tried and true, and he could handle six
horses as could few others of the over-
land drivers.— Denver News.
Do~’r Figur THE TEAM.—If a horse
shows signs of stubbornness or contrari-
ness, just get mad yourself, and you can
rest assured you are fixed for the rest of
the day as long as you want to keepit up.
Horses, like men, are generally set in
their ways, and when a horse with only
moderate sense gets into trouble with a
man with only moderate sense the two
generally have a ‘monkey and parrot
time’’ from morning till night. Well-
bred horses are seldom stubborn and un-
ruly, and in this respect there is a strik-
ing analogy between horses and men.
Horses docile, obedient and tractable in
the hands of one man, are vicious and
unruly in the hands of another. Therea-
son is, the one knows how to manage
them, the other does not. Bad disposi-
tions are generally the resultof bad
handling. A few slaps and jerks, accom-
panied by a little sharp talk or a few
fierce yells, get the most gentle horse
clear beside himself and ready to worry
and fret the remainder of the day. The
more quiet and steady you keep your
horses the better it will be for them,
for yourself and all concerned.
LeMoN Syaprs.—One cup of sugar,
one-half cup of butter, two eggs, one tea-
spoonful extract of lemon, a quarter of a
teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a tea-
spoonful of flour enough to make very
stiff; roll very thin, and bake quickly.
