— gio Bellefonte, Pa., November 15, 1889. Farm N otes. Spent tan bark is used with satis- faction for mulching fall settings of cur- rants, grapes and other small fruits. If vou want rhubarb pies early next spring, work manure from the pig-pen into the soil about the plants this fall. There are two things that are worth more than they cost—order and clean- liness about the barns and over the farm. A small farm may be. made larger without extending is area, by deepen: ing and enriching the soil and more thorough cultivation. It there is sarplus grain or hay it may pay to buy very poor stock to fatten, but the stock on the farm should never be allowed to fall off in condition. It costs a good bit to keep lice, and they are mighty unprofitable sfock. See that vour animals are free from them. They feed on the animals, and the animals either lose flesh or use up extra food atyour expense. When a limb is cut from a tree it should be cut as close as possibleto the body. The cut should be a smooth one, without bruising the bark, and the ent surtace should be covered with some kind of cheap paint mixed with oil. Six thousand ducks are annually marketed from the farm of a promin- ent unostentatious farmer in Massachu- setts, who comprehends the idea of handling his stock in such a way as to yield him a return quick, with little expense for keeping. Upward ventilatior, or ventilation at the top of the hive, is said to be aban- doned by the largest keepers, especial- ly for out-door wintering. Plenty of bottom ventilation for out-door and cellar wintering is considered safficient. It is a curious fact, so announced, that if cider is scalded to125 or 130 de- grees, it will not make vinegar, as this heat destroys the bacteria that form vinegar. This same temperature de- stroys the bacteria in the silo, and this is perhaps the explanation why it re- mains comparatively sweet. Banking the earth around fruit trees will serve to protect the roots and” also to cause the water to tlow away from the trees, thereby preventing pools from forming around the tree. The ground being kept dry, trees will en- dure the cold better. The Ohio Experiment Station reach- es the conclusion, after several trials, that corn ensilage is superior to field beets as a flesh and fat former, but that the beets are preferable for milk pro- duction. The dry solids of both com- pare favorably with those of the bet- ter grades of other kinds of food. The Farm Journal insists that calves, colts and all young animals should be treated so that they will come to you as to a friend. If you feel you must kick something, let it be a stone wall or a log, or something that will not suffer. A few experiments in this line may cure you of the habit of feeling ugly. Toard's Dairyman says that ton for ton, many farmers are finding out that unthrashed oats cut when itis in the soft dough state, cut fine with a straw cutter, is better than meadow hay—cut equally fine to feed cattle, especially milch cows. As a rule, good tarmers raise far more weight of oats to the acre than hay. There was on exhibition at several of the fairs this year a Clydesdale horse, 5 years old, that weighs nearly 3000 pounds, and is 20% hands high, 32inch- es round his arm, 25 inches round his stifle, 7 feet 11 inches in girth, 34% in- ches around the hip, and 11 feet 4 inch- es in length. His head is 36 inches long, and he wears shoes that weigh 32 pounds. The form and height of the fence en- closing the poultry yard should vary according to the variety kept. A fence for a lot of active leghorns would be worthless if built five feet high,such as you would use tor Cochins and Brabmas. Wire netting stretched neatly from posts eight or ten feet apart to the height of eight feet will usually meet all requirements. The stalks of old asparagus beds should be burned, and a godd dressing of manure spread over the ground. Young plants may be set out now as well as at any other time when the ground is in good condition. In heavy wet soil it is best to plant in spring. Ay good, rich garden soil is suitable for asparagus; newly ‘set plants should be lightly covered during winter. In aneighborhood where the dairies are small and the people do not un- derstand making butter,a creamery is a great advantage by improvingthe qual ity of the butter, increasing the receipts of the farmer and educating the people in the art of taking care of milk and cream. They will also “catch on” to the art of making good butter. The creamery is an educational institution as well as a business institution. According to Sir J. B. Lawes, an acre of barley absorbs 547 tons of wa- ter in. a day ! This appears enormous. Bat if we could seethe amount of mois- ture that daily aad hourly rises from the field and forest, it would astonish us until we got farmliar with it. The water is thrown from the treeand plant, but the fertilizing waterial which it held in solution remains to nourish them and promote their growth. The newly introduced vees, the Car niolans, seem to be growing in popular favor. An old beekeeper, who has tried all kinds of bees, has tried the Car niolans for two seasons and he says he finds them always ahead with a nice crop of surplus honey. Ie says in Gleanings: 1 find them peaceable, in- dustrious and very prolific; they gather but little propolis, and, so far as my experience goes, they winter better than the Itanians.” Sit = — The first white settler in the city of St. Paul came in the year 1832. To- day the population of the eapital of Minnesota is 200,000. The first log ca- bin was erected in 1838; to-day the city boasts of some of the finest busi- ness and residence buildings on the American continent. The town site was located in 1847; the capite¥ in 1851. The first survey of the city was made in 1851; the Chamber of Com- merce organized in 1847. The original St. Paul was plotted in 1847, contain- ed about 80 aces. The present ares: of the city contains 35,472 acres.

Barr, and others—A4 Capital Programme. During 1800 The Century Magazine (whose recent siccesses have included the famous “War Papers,” the Lincoln History and George Kennan's series on “Siberia and the exile Sys- tem”) will publish the long looked for Autobio- graphy of Joseph Jefferson, whose “Rip van Winkle” has made his name a household word. No more interesting record of a life upon the stage could be laid before the public. Mr Jefferson is the fourth in a generation of actors, and, with his children and grandchil- dren, there are six generations of actors among the Jeffersons. His story of the early days of the American stage, wher, as a boy, traveling in his father’s company, they would settle down for a season in a Western town, playing in their own extemporized theatre,— the particulars of the ereation of his famous “Rip van Winkle,” how he acted “Ticket-of- Leave Man” hefore an audience of that class in Australia, ete.,—all this, enriched with illustra- tions and portraits of contemporary actors and actresses, and with anecdotes, will form one of the most delightful serials The Century has ever printed. Amelia BE. Barr, Frank R. Stockton, Mark Twain, H. H. Boyesen, and many other well- known writers will furnish the fiction for the new volume, which is to be unusually strong, including several novels, illustrated novelet- tes, short stories. “The Women of the French Salons” are (o be described in a brilliant series of illustrated papers. The important discover- ies made with the great Lick Telescope at San Francisco (the largest telescope in the world) and the atest explorations relating to prehistoric America (including the famous Ser- pent Mound, of Ohio) are to be ehronicled in The Cenlury. Prof. George P. Fisher of Yale University is to write a series on “The Natare and Method of Revelation,” which will attract every Bible stuaent. Bishop Potter of New York will be one of several prominent writers who are to contribute a series of “Present day-Papers” on living topics. There will be art papers, timely articles, etc. and the choicest pictures that the greates artists and engravers can produce. Every bookseller, postmaster, and subserip- tion agent takes subscriptions to The Century ($4 00 a year), or remittance may be made di- rectly to the publishers, The Century Co., of New York. Begin new subscriptions with November (the first issue of the volume) and get Mark Twain's story, “A Connecticut Yan- kee in King Arthur's Court, in that number. 34 45 - 1 ST. NICHOLAS. THE CENTURY COS MAGAZINE FOR YOUNG FOLK. —ENLARGED AND PRINTED IN NEW TYPE. Since 1873, when, under the editorial man- agement of Mrs Mary Mapse Dodge, the pub- lication of St Nicholas for Young Folks was be- oun, it has led all magazines for girlsand boys. Nothing like it was known before, and to-day, as the Chicago Inter-Ocean recently said, “it is the model and idol juvenile magazine of the world.” Through its pages the greatest writers of our time are speakingto the yonth of Ameri- ca and England, and the best artists and en- gravers are training the eyes of the boys and girls toappreciate the highest in art. Nobody knows how many readers St. Nicholas has. In the third largest public library in America,- that in Indianapolis,—more than 3000 people read each month’s number. Since the first issue Mrs. Dodge has remain- ed as editor. Early in its history other young people’s magazines, “Our Young Folks, “The Littie Corporal,” “Riverside,” ete. were con- <olidated with it,and its history hasbeen one of growth from the first. Tennyson, Bryant, Longfellow, Whittier, Miss Alcott, Mrs. Bur- nett, Charles Dudley Warner, W. D. Howells, and almost every well-known writer of our time have contributed to its pages. There is only one way in which its conductors ean make it better, and that is by making more of it, and so they announce that with the beginning of the seventeenth volume (November, 1880) St. Nicholas will be enlarged by the addition of required to make room for the rich store of benefit of SIL Nicholas readers, The use of new clearer type will be begun with the No- vember number. important serial stories ty four well-known American authors. Athletics and outdoor sports will be a special feature (contributed by Walter Camp, of Yaie, and others), and there will be stories of character and adventure, <ketehes of information and travel, outdoor papers, articles of special literary interest, sug- rest ve talks on natural history, other scien Dec rand January numbers are 10) day issues. ae price will be the same ay heretofore, $3. 0a year, 25 cents a number, and all dealers mul the publishers (The Century Co, New Yerk) take subscriptions.
