Farm Notes.
Never prop a fruit tree, says the
New England Homestead. If the load
is too heavy thin the fruit, and make
what is left better than it could possi
bly be if overcrowded.
‘The cow may work well, the churn
may work well, and the conditions
may be perfect, but ifthere is not an
active brain behind the whole thing, it
will be like an engine without any fire
under the boiler.
At the present price of feed stuffs
Professor Goesmann reaches the con-
clusion that it pays to grow and pre-
pare corn-fodder,stover or corn ensilage.
This conclusion is confirmed by the
Ohio and Iowa experimental stations.
Wood or coal ashes are among
the best materials that can be used to
loosen up a stiff, hard soil, says the
Live Stock Indicator.itshould be applied
freely whenever they can be secured,
while wood ashes are a voluable fertil-
izer.
Instead of counting on mere compe-
tition from the West in the future the
East may count on less. The West
will become more and more a consumer
of its own preducts, while it will man-
ufacture more and more and buy less.
The West will buy less of the East.
A farmer in Texas gives his hogs
one good feed each year of corn boiled
in poke root, three parts of corn to oue
of root, He considers the root a pre-
ventive of cholera. In twenty-two
years experience he has never lost a
hog with this disease.
Svery bull on the farm should be
broken tothe yoke when he is young
and be made to work . There is note-
ing so efficacions as work for temper-
ing a savage disposition. The bull is
dangerous because he is idle and has
nothing to do.
Of the seven weeds of the “weed law”
of Wisconsin, which requires farmers,
under penalty, to destroy, says the
Michigan Farmer, only one is a native of
‘the United States, all the rest being
naturalized importations froma Europe,
where they are common wild plants,
Frequent transplanting of the young
plant and good tillage are essential to
best results in tomato culture, says the
Michigan Farmer. Plants started un-
der glass ten weeks before transplanting
into the field will give fruit about a
week sooner than those started two or
hree weeks later. :

its value, and its price in market, can
Tartan is much used in combination
with plain serge.

{ Skirts of ordinury dresses seem to be

The skirts of home toilets are almost
invariably made with trains.

{ handsome and rich materials.

used on both hats and bonnets.
| Sleeves, veils and yckes of fur are
' features of some winter costumes.
| Small muffs of silk and ribbon, filled
| with lace, are in tavor in Paris now.
|
Low crowns and flat trimmings re-
: present a favorite fashion in millinery.
Ribbed velvet, resembling very fine
. corduroy, is being used for winter cos-
| tumes.
Embroidered Russian braids are em-
ployed on house jackets and dresses for
| children.
| No trimming is put on the fashionable
walking skirt, but only an artist can
cut, hang and finish one.
All the walking dresses have one
twelve-inch steel set in the skirt twelve
inches below the belt.
Small crochet ball-buttons are first
choice for smooth cloths. Hut buttons
are covered with velvet.
Edgings and loops of narrow black
silk cord furnish a neat, inexpensive
trimming for woolen dress goods.
‘Warm jackets for coaching, driving
etc., are made of leopatd-skin, sealskin,
| the axis deer, mink or black Russian
lamb. :
1tis rumored that the short walking
skirtis to be superseded by the incon-
venient half long dress when a train is
not desired.
Monotony is not an element in the
millinery line this season, when trim-
mings range through every stage of tex-
ture from lace to astrachan.
The Figaro jacket is a popular style
of corsage at present. It is completed
by a vest or chemisette of puffed or
pins silk confined at the waist by a
elt.
Only bent hooks are used by modistes
who know the resources of the notion
stock. Instead ofeyes, small brass rings
are used, which have previously been
buttonhole-stiched with silk. Once fast-
ened the bent hook remains so.
A new material for rough wear much
used in London is Harris cloth, which
comes in dull grays and browns mixed
with white, and is made in simple styles.
It is dyed with seaweed, and takes its
name from Harris Island, a Scotch island
where it is made.
‘White buckskin is coming into use for
the waistcoats of cloth gowns, and col-
lars and cuffs of the same material are
seen on some English suits. The buck-
skin may be restored, when soiled, to its
pristine whiteness with pipe clay with-
out the necessity of removing it from

ing an account of all his transactions, '
and by.comparison of the accounts of
each year. With the beginning of the!
new year every farmer should com-
mence keeping a strict account.
A Michigan farmer tells a contem-
porary how he manages to conquer
Caanda _thistles by the help of 500
sheep. He puts a small handful of salt
on each thistle at the root. The sheep
eat the thistle ciose to th: ground.
The salting is repeated as often as ne-
cessary, and the thistle seldom appears
the second year.
We know a man who has been hunt-
ing about for an all-purpose cow for
the last twenty-five years, and during
all that time has not owned a cow
that has served one porpose. The
man who grabs anything that is at
hand and turns it to profit is the man
who “gets on in the world.” — Western
Rural.
An exchange says that it would be a
help to those unacquainted with varie-
ties if three-forths of the varieties of
garden seeds were culled out and left
out of the catalogue altogether. A
few standard varieties will produce bet-
ter resulis and give more satisfaction
than a larger number, many of which
are comparatively worthless,
1f the cow is the cow she ought to
be she will give good returns for the
extra food she consumes. But al-
ways remember that nature takes care
of herself before she attends to our pe-
pecuniary interests. If the cow is half
fed nature will use the most of her for
the needs of the animal system, and
the cow-owner will get badly left at
the milk pail.
i
Just so long as the buttermaker sells
his butter at the country store we are
free to admit that it is of no account to
anybody whether he makes good or
bad butter. If he makes good butter
he will not get any more for it, and the
best butter is thrown into the barrel
with the bad, and the consumer is not
benefited. Make good butter and send
it to a commission house.
Sheep should not be housed in large
numbers under the same roof, says the
American Sheep Breeder. The breath
. of so many together renders it noxious
-to’breathe. A practical shepherd esti-
mates that not more than fifty should
* be stabled under the same roof. Tt is
much better to build several small sheds
at convenient points than one large
* building.
The Orange County Farmer says;
“Peach culture seems to be coming to
the front again in this part of the
world. “For many years but few peach-
-es were-grown, but of late they seem to
have taken a new lease of life, and ap-
parently do well. The trees cost so
little'that every farmer should have a
few. "If he gets but one crop before
the tree ‘dies itis a good investment
all the same.”
Aches and hen manure, if mixed to-
gether before being applied to the soil,
result ina loss of ammonia that

Newspaper English.
‘We are not only getting into the
habit of using French words, but also
of translating French phrases into our
English. For instance, there is scarcely
a paper I take up which does not in-
form us that something has been ‘‘defin-
itely arranged’’—meaning, of course,
“definitely, or finally ’’ settled; or that
something ‘goes without sasing’—
where it goes we are not told. * *
We never say anyvthing—we intimate
it. Mr. Black boldly says to Smith at
supper: “If you say that again I'll
knock you down.” But the newspapers
report that he intimated an intention to
prostrate his opponent. Black also adds
that Smith is a blackguard and a rascal.
Smith’s friend says that “Black alluded
to him as not being honorable in his
conduct.” Brown, wishing to know
who began this asks: ¢By whom was
this initiated ?”” Smith’s friend replies
that it was initiated by Black, and that
the controversy lasted the balance of the
night, [and was definitely arranged by
an apology. Brown then asks where
the parties are “stopping’’ now—mean-
ing to ask where the two persons are
staying, for nobody now stays in a place
he ¢stops”’—and Smith’s friend “inti-
mates’ that it has “transpired” that
they are in Green's hotel, and that
Smith has ‘extended an invitation” to
Black to dinner, and that thus the “dif-
ficulty” has been ‘definitely arranged.”
But, in the newspaper account of it, the
writer says* “An outrage, which at
first sight seems almost incredible, has
just been ventilated by special inquiry.”

Had Daniel to Read!
A farmer who was seated with his wite
in a wagon in the market yesterday
beckoned to a newsboy who was shout-
ing :
“All about——!""ete., and asked ?
“What's up now ?”
«All about the message.”
«WW hat message ?77
‘The president's.”
“Oh, that’s it. The president sent a
message to some one, did he?”
“It’s the message to congress,” said
the boy after looking at the headlines.
“Must be mighty important |”
+ Yes, sir.” .
“Quess I'll take one of them.” e
“1 guess you won't!” exclaimed tht
wife as he felt for his change. “Wha
on earth do yon want of a message ?”
“Want to see what it is, don’t I?”
‘But it’s nothin’ but readin’.,’
“No, I s’pose not, but the president
must a bad somethin’ on his mind when
he made it up.”
“S'posen he had. We've got nuff on
our minds, haven't we? You haven't
finished that Life of Dan’l Boone yit.”
“That's so. Say, bub, sorry to have
troubled ye, but I guess I don’t keer
for any message, and the ole woman is
rayther agin it, too. I've got a good
book to home that makes my hair stand
right up on every page, and I guess the
president can’t beat that ’Life o’ Dan’l
Boone,” and the way he did knock In-
guns and bars about would make your
feet cold to read. No, I guess I won't
buy. I'll continue on with Dan’l
Boone. '—Detroit Free Press
greatly lessens the value. Put the
ashes on after the manure has heen
mixed with the soil ; the ammonia will
be absorhed by it and remain in it for
the wse of ‘the crop. Wood ashes
are a valuable application to soils de-
ficient in potash, and hasten the de-
compositiori in the coarse manures.

ficiul statistics show that the average
duration of life in Norway is 48.33 for

IN THE CHIMNEY CORNER.
What do you see in the fire my darling ;
Gold haired lassie beside my knee ?
Is it a castle in Eldorado,
Is it a lover from o'er the sea ?
Leave the castle for others, lassie,
Let the lover come whence he may;
Love is love in the humblest cottage,
Never mind what the world will say.
What is there in the flames, my darling?
Do you wonder what can see?
The old white house and the little garden,
Oh, how it all comes back to me !
Oh, the sound of the mill wheel turning!
Oh, the scent of the lilac tree!
When I was a girl like you, my darling,
When your grandfather courted me.
You will grow old, like me, my darling ;
Time will whiten your golden hair,
You'll sit at eve in the chimney corner,
Dreaming and watching each empty chair;
You will not weep as you sit and ponder;
You will remember granny’s smile;
For we know that the hearts that are gone,
my darling,
Are but lost for a little while.

DELPHIA TIMES THIS MORNING 2
THE TIMES is the most extensively circula~
ted and widely read newspaper published
in Pennsylvania, Its discussion of pub-
lic men and pnblic measures is in the in-
terest of public integrity, honest govern-
ment and prosperous industry, and it
knows no party or personal allegience in
treating public issues. In the broadest
and best sense a family and general news-
paper.
THE NEWS OF THE WORLD. The times
has all the faculties of advanced. journal-
ism for gathering news from all quarters
of the Globe, in addition to that of the As-
sociated Press now covering the whole
world in its scope, making it the perfec-
tion of a newspaper, with every thing care-
fully edited to occupy the smallest space.
THE SUNDAY EDITION is not only a com-
plete newspaper, but a Magazine of Pop-
ular literature. Its sixteen large pages,
clearly printed and attractively illustrated,
contain as much good liternture, by the
foremost writers of the world, as any of the
popular monthlies. Some of thé news
papers in New York, Boston and Chicago
print a great number of pages on Sunday
but these are for the most part occupied by
advertisements. The merchants in those
cities concentrated nearly all their adver-
tising in the Sunday papers, while in Phil-
adelphia they have found it more advan
tagous to advertiee on week days as well.”

cuss all subjects of public interest and im-
ortance. The writers on its list include :

Edgar W. Nye, Opie P. Read,and, indeed,
almost every popular writer of note in this
country and quite a number of distinguish-
