Farm Notes.
Butter commands a higher price
than any other product of cattle used
for food purposes in proportion to its
bulk.
Peonies in large clumps should be
divided and new varieties set out as
soon as the weather permits.
A spirited horse may soon be made
slow and spiritless by constantly nag-
ging, twitching the lines, peevish urg-
ing and many other wearing processes
that fretful drivers invent and practice.
According to one estimate, during
the past ten years the amount of capi-
tal invested in vineyards, grape grow-
ing has increased over £100,000,000,
with an annual product of over $25,
000,000.
An Australian correspondent says :
“One of the best remedies I ever found
for foot rot in sheep was to turn them
often, dressing the feet on a dry floor
covered two inches deep with quick-
lime.”
Colonel Curtis says that the best
rule is to get manure out upon theland
where it is needed as fast as it is made.
The next best thingto do is to keep
manure under cover when it cannot be
thus drawn out.
The farmer's progress may be judg-
ed by his manure heap. The careful
and judicious farmer takes advantage
of every opportunity, not only to have
and save as much manure as possible,
but he aims to prevent loss of volatile
matter in that which he has accumu-
lated. Upon the management of the
manure heap depends the profit or
- loss.
The butter for which the Deerfoot
farm was awarded first premium at
the Bay State fair, after a very exhaust-
ive competition, was made from the
milk of cows fed on cut clover at night
pasture by day a grain ration compos-
ed of Indian corn meal, 40 per cent.
crusized oats, 20 percent.; linseed meal,
920 per cent.; wheat middlings, 20 per
cent.
Mr. Goff, of the Wisconsin Station,
presents the most important results of
potato experiments. Of 118 kinds the
following gave the best yields : Rose
Beauty, Monarch, Duplex, Late Beau-
ty of Hebron, Mullaly, Alexander's
Prolific, Senica Red Jacket, White
Beauty of Hebron, Wisconsin Beauty,
Canada Blue, Arthur's No. 2, Perfect
Gem and Ben Harrison.
No farmer can afford to neglect his
hoed crops. It pays to begin early in
in the seasen to do the work thorough-
ly and to cultivate often. Such a
course will cause the plants to grow
more rapidly, hasten the maturity of
the crop,anl increases the yield. It
will also destroy the weeds, and thus
tend to get the land in good condition
for sowing when the hoed crop is re-
moved.
The Rural New Yorker has never
found anything better to kill lice on
cattle than tobacco water, to which
a little sulphur has been added.
Keep the tobacco and sulphur in water
near the boiling point for twelve hours
stirring occasionally. Apply the de-
cocation to the poll of the head, along
the top of the neck and spine, on the
brisket and under the legs. Of course,
the animals must be kept in a warm
place when treated in this way.
As the retail fresh meat market calle
for less fat and more lean, a neighbor
adopted a plan to make pork without
grain, which many farmers would do
well to imitate. Twelve April pigs
were weaned jusl as the clover was
about six inches high. They were
placed in that and had no other feed
except wind-fall apples. They
wete sold in October and came to $75.
The flesh was delicious, and “about
one fat to two Jeans,” the butcher said.
* Sunflowers planted about a drain or
on portions of land from which im-
purities arise will absorb noxious gas
es, and thereby prove very beneficial,
to the health of the people about.
Besides being useful, these plants are
exceedingly ornamental it arranged to
form a dense bank. At the rear plant’
a row of “New Primrose” variety, next
a row of the ball-shaped kind known
as the globosus, then a row of the Cali-
fornia, and lastly a row of “Minature”
sunflowers.
A piece of rock salt should always
be kept in the box of the manger, so
that the horse may lick it whenever
his appetite prompts him. Salt is as
necessary for animals as it is to human
beings, and this way of administering
it is far preferable to the universal prac-
tice of putting a handful once or twice
a week in soft feed. In following his
instincts the horse will take neither too
much or not enough, and will get it
just when he desires it and needs it
most.
Although farmers owe much to the
breeders of thoroughbred stock for the
wonderful improvements made within
the past fifty years, yet it is dorbtful
if they have done more than the seeds
men and others who have introduced
so many superior fruits and vegetables
during that time. Those who confer-
red the benefits have done so with
without the advantages of protection
under patent regulations, their work
being given to the public with but lit
tle, if any, benefit to the originators.
Good brood mares ave a fortune on
the farm.
continue to grade up, that each gener-
ation will be better bred and raise bet-
ter colts. The mares can do the work
on the farm and raise valuable colts,
while a gelding or a male is a useless
expense on a farm. When all onr
farms are stocked with brood mares
and greater care given to breeding the
better class of horses farming will be
more profitable, for there is no pro luct
of the farm that sells for better money
than go)d horses, and the brood mares
work for their keep besides.
Keep all good mares and

A popular porker is a little fellow
with large, juicy hams, the large hogs
being more desirable for producing
lard.
Norule can be given as to he the
best plan of commencing io cultivate
that will be applicable under all cir-
cumstances. What will be best for
one soil and in one ceason will not an-
swer with the next.
Dignity Costs Money.
Tom O'Neil believes that dignity
should govern everything in connection
with the mayor's office, and he is
bound to see the idea carried out no
matter what it costs. That it does
cost money Tom found out a few days |
ago when a tramp came in and inquir-
ed for the mayor. Tom replied that
he was not in. “When will he be in?”
next asked? the tramp. “I can’t tell
you,” said Tom, “but I represent him ;
what can I do for you ?”” “Well you are
just as good,” said the man. “I want
ten cents to get some coffee and bread
with; Iam hungry.” Tom felt that
here was a chance to sustain the digni-
nity of his own and hs superior’s posiy
tion, and, besides, he felt rather pleased
at the remark of the tramp that he
was “just as good.”
He therefore took the man out to a
restaurant, and, not to appear stingy,
he handed him a bill of fare and told
him to order what he wanted, thinking
he might get stuck for fifteen cents, or
perhaps twenty. He sat down at a
table and began looking over a news-
paper while his guest ordered. Pres-
ently the dishes came, and a few min-
utes later the waiter brought Tom a
check; it was for sixty-five cents.
Rather amused at the man’s nerve he
went over to ask him if he wanted
anything more, and with perfect cool-
ness Mr. Man said “No,” and belieyed
he had all he wanted. Tom went to
the cashier and paid the check, and as
he was leaving his guest shouted out
to him: “I'll see you again.” “All
right,” answered Tom, but outside he
vowed the man would not see him again
if he could see the man first.

SIMPLE AND Goon APPLE MERIN-
cUE.—Select one dozen apples of rich
flavor, pare thinly, core thoroughly, and
cut in quarters. Stew quickly in an
earthen pipkin, with sugar to taste, and
a little ground cinnamon or grated nut-
meg. Remove from the fire as soon as
done, not allowing the apples to boil to
a’pulp. While they arestewing, beat
to a stiff froth the whites of four eggs,
and four tablespoonfuls of powdered
white sugar ; flavor with lemon or va-
nilla. When the apples are done, put
them lightly in a pudding-dish, spread
smoothly over the top the beaten whites,
and set in the oven until nicely brown-
ed. Can be eaten warm, or set away
until perfectly cold, and eaten with
sweet cream, This jthough simple,
forms a delicious and perfectly healthy
dessert.

It is only those who
eat—ihe many who re-
quire the necessities of
life, to prolong their ex-
istence, that we address,
Those who use no-
thing,—who think they
need nothing,—who live
on expectation, hope or
some intangible nothing,
will save time by passing
this column by. It isnot
intended for; them but the
other fellows. We write
what is here put down for
the people who are mortal
enough to get hungry,and
in consequence of getting
hungry are sensible enough
to try to get what is good,
pure, wholesome and nec-
essary, at prices that don't
require them to lay out all
that they earn, to appease
their appetites. We have
been in the hunger appeas-
ing business for many,
many years. We know
what men want, we know
what women and children
desire, and we know how
much better and how much
more pleasant it is to re-
side in a community where
people enjoy good health,
than among dyspeptic com-
plainers, growlers and suf-
ferers. To have healthy
people pure food must be
used. We understand this,
and understanding it, keep
nothing but the purest of
everything’ that can be
found in the market. To
satisfy the demands of the
many different stomachs
that we try to gratify, re-
quires a vast variety of
dainties, condiments and
relishes, as well as the sub-
stantials ; and knowing this
there is nothing that is eat
able, relishable or appetiz-
ing, that we do not keep.
It is for you who want, or
use anything eatable, cith-
er as meats, fish, groceries,
fruits, nuts, relishes, or in
fact anything from a piece
of chewing gum to a first
class beef steak, that we
write and pay .the printer
to print this invitation }for
you to come and see us.
Ifyou live in town drop
in and see what all we have
and what quality of goods
we carry.
