Farm Notes.
The more even the temperature in
the cellar the better what is stored
there will keep.
It is not the full-fed cow or horse
that kills itself by overeating when it
happens to break loose and get at the
meal or oat bin.
Dairy salt stored in the vicinity of
codfish, or kerosene, or turpentine, is
apt to contract flavors that injure the
butter in which it is used.
The garden, the truck patch and the
orchard should furnish the tarmer
with fully one-half of his living, if prop-
er care is taken with each to secure the
best products in good season.
During the winter there is always
more or less that can be'done in the
way of preparing for the ‘spring crops
and by doing thiz help ‘materially in
getting the spring work done in good
season.
There is no economy in supplying
more bedding than is necessary to keep
clean and to absorb all the liquid void-
ings ; more than this is adding to the
quantity at the expense of the quality.
If a horse intends to be vicious, the
tail is carried low and the ears are laid
back. Ifin gook humor and eager to
go, the tail is carried high. If nervous
or inclined to kick, bite or strike, the
tail is switched from side to side.
“Buy the Best and Breed Better,” is
the heading of an editorial in the Jer
sey Bulletin. It is axiomatic and good
enough for a motto, without comment.
The man who obeys the injunction is
on the great highway of progress and
cannot fail to succeed.
Everylanimal needs plenty of water.
Water flushes out the organs through
“which it passes, thus aiding to carry
off the effete matter. Water, then,
when given to the cow, besides aiding
her in milk production, performs the
other office.— Western Rural.
Put white butter and yellow butter
side by side and tell the consumer that
one is artificially colored, and he will
take the colored article 999.999 times
in 1,000,000. Let nobody worry
about the consumer being deceived.
He is after the ‘‘yaller,”” — Western
Rural. : :
Securing large yields of corn or po-
tatoes in competition for prizes teach
the farmer how best to cultivate and
the best fertilizers to use, but the mat-
ter of profit is the end to be consider
ed. The cost of the crap, not the yield,
determines its value to the farmer.
By mulching newly set trees or
plants late in the fall or early winter,
the damage done by thawing and freez-
ing may be prevented. Anotheradvan-
tage, especially with fruit, is that, it of-
ten delays blossoming in the; spring,
and in this way prevents the faait from
being damaged. fam
Minnesota has passed an act to pre-
vent the practice of fraud by tree ped-
dlers in the sale of nursery stock. . Ped-
dlers from other States before being al-
lowed to sell must file an affidavit with
the Secretary of State of Minnesota
that they are all right and enter into
£2500 bonds to the same effect. | ;
The Vermont Chronicle speaks’ of a
dairyman who males 30-ct. bdtter with
less trouble and expense than dre be:
stowed on their product by thdse who
make 16-cent butter. It is less work
and costs less to make butter inthe
right way than it does to do everything
out of time and order and thus turn
out a poor article.
Lime has the advantage of being
beneficial at all seasons, though its
effects in the soil may not be immedi-
ate. It neverinjures land if proper-
ly applied, and though itsresults may
be unsatisfactory at first, vet the effects
are lasting, the lime applied this year
proving beneficial in the future. - Lime
is cheap and should Qe used (reely.
The strongest wood in the United
States, according to. Professor Sargent,
is that of the nutmeg hickory of the Ar
kansas region, and the weakest is ‘the
West Indian birch. The most elastic
is the tamarack, the white or shell
bark hickory ranking far below it.
The wood having the highest specific
gravity is the blue wood ot Texas.
The mainspring of farming is the
seed. It is more important to secure
good seed than to prepare for its recep-
tion in the soil, The failure of seed’ to
germinate may cost the farmer the loss
of an entire crop. The seed is some:
thing thatthe farmer should carefully |
examine now before spring opens, by
testing it in boxes of earth under glass.
Chicken feathers, if properly treated,
wiil make pillows which are almost as |
light as those of geese. Use only the
downy, entire feather, stripping all o
the others from their shafts. To kill
the rancid odor, wash through a
warm water to which yon have added
chloride of lime—a, spoonful to a gal
lon of water—and dry in an open oven,

She Speculated in Oil.
A Strange Story and a Sad One
That Is Not Yet All Told—Ten
Years of derrible Trial
and Failure.
There have been sone pretty big fe-
male plungers in the oil market at one
time and another. There are still wo-
men speculators in most of the oil ex-
few, if any, of the ‘high rollers” left.
Oil City has had more women specula-
tors in petroleum than any other town,
aithongh at one time Bradford had a
fair quota. The Globe-Democrat cor-
respoadent learned to-day that there
are but three woman who still visit the
oil exchanges daily and make a regular
business of toying with the oily tiger.
These ladies have been familiar figures
about the exchange for several years,
and are all that are left out of several
women speculators. These ladies do
not come on the fioor of the exchange,
and are not in fact, members, but are
in their seats in the ladies’ gallery as
soon as the exchange opens and remain
tolerably regularly until the close at 3
o'clock 1n the afternoon. They deal,
of course, entirely through brokers, a
nod being sufficient order for a broker
to buy or sell 1000, 5000 or 10,000 bar-
rels of oil, as the case may be. It is
not often that they go beyond a deal of
1000 barrels, as the ladies who, are; left
in the exchange, to putit in the phrase
ology of a broker, are “flying light.”
With a few exceptions, the ladies who
have entered the jungles of the oily
tiger, have got the worst of it. = The
three who still cling to the exchange
are content to deal in 1000-barrel lots,
and it is not always they can do this.
A number of ladies prominent in the
charitable organizations and in society
here have been successful speculators in
oil, and two or three of them have
been interested in some large deals.
They were not regular habitues of the
exchange, and were frequent visitors to
the gallery, which is open to the pub.
All their deals in the market have
been made through brokers. When
there was more activity in the market
than there is at present it was a univer-
sal theme of fireside gossip. Everybody
speculated in oil, from the minister
down to the porter in the hotel, and it
is no wonder that the ladies fell under
the fascinatinating spell of the “bull
ring,” as the pen-like place where the
deals are made on 'change 1s called,
Daring exciting times in the market it
has been discussed quite as much in
the drawing room as in the counting
room. In the system of speculating in
oil the persons of small capital and no
capital at all have not been overlooked,
and the servant girl is given an oppor-
tunity to ‘take a flyer in oil” if she is
so inclined.” During one big whirl in
the market, following the collapse of
the ‘Cherry Grove field, it was well
known that a large number of ‘servant
girls lost their little bundle along with
the big fellows. © This was the most
disastrous panic the oil country ever
knew, and it marked to a great extent
the end of speculating by women. So
many of them lost all their money that
only a limited number of them have
had the courage to venture back’ into
thesspeculative whirpool.
The history of one woman's specula-
tions in the Oil City Exchange is curi-
ous. Her husband had been in busi-
ness in the oil country for several years
and had accumulated considerable
roperty, in all worth about $16,000.
e concluded to go West and went to
several of the Western cities to look
around for an investment. He had ef
fected a sale of his property before leav-
ing Oil City, and his wife remained be-
hind to settle up some details, collect
payments not yet due, and join him in
the West, where they were to make
their future home. The woman col-
lected the money, and, doubt!ess, wish-
ing to carry a pleasant surprise to her
husband, she put the money into the
oil: market to ‘make a turn.” The
turn went the wrong way and she lost.
In the hope of getting it back she made
other investments, with the usual re-
sult. Ir was not long before she lost
every dollar of the money she was to
carry to her husband, Iv was sometime
before she ventured to break the news
of her folly to her husband, and thi3
she did only atter he had written re-
| peatedly for her to come on with the
money. At last she told him the story
of her loss in the oil market, where she
says’: !
bad gone in the hope of doubling their
| money. The husband had taken
¢ + enough money with him to buy a small
farm, and with this he was contented to
| begin the business of money-making
| over again, but: his wife refused to share
i his lot until she had restored to him
! the money she had lost. She declined
Ito go west, bui remained in Oil City in
' the hope of recovering her lost fortune,
This was 10 years ago, and the wo
man is still a daily attendant in the
gallery of the oil exchange. She 'has
had varying luck, but has never got
enough money ahead to make good the
loss of her husband, or anything. like

was told that in this time she has seve-
changes in the region, but there are’

ral times been reduced to the extremity :
ot doing the work of a servant: When
she would get enough money together
to buy a **put” or a “call” she would |
again try her luck in the market. She |
always oresses in ‘solemn black, and |
evidently has but one purpose in life
—namely : to recover the money she
toolishly risked in oil and restore it to
her husband. There is not much like:
lihood that she will ever succeed. Her
husband continues to urge her to aband-
on her seli-:mposed task and join him
on his farm in the West, but she reso-
He has made
two or three trips to Oil City to pre-
vail upon her to give up the market,
but she can not be shaken from her
purpose. She says she is in it for the
money she lost in her life. She lives
in the most frugal manner, even when
making money, but the chances are re-
mote of her ever recovering her losses.
Her dealings recently have been in a
small way, and she barely makes
enough to support herself.
In contrast with this sad case several
other women in Oil City have at def
ferent times made considerable sums of
money in the market. One lady who
lives on the South Side, who had mon-
ey in her own right, went into the
market against her husband's protest
and made a snug little fortune. It is
understood she has never entirely given
up the pleasuresof speculation and oc-
casionally takes a “flyer.” One of the
successful oil companies in the Brad-
ford field was composed entirely of la-
dies of Bradford and Jamestown, N. Y.
This company never went into
the speculative market, but attended
solely to the producing part ofthe busi-
ness. They struck a number of good
wells in the Bradford field, and after
that territory began to wane they came
to Venango county and developed a
good piece of property near Oil City.
