farm Notes.
With strawberries, raspberries,
blackberries and grapes a supply of
fruit for the family could be had until
late in the season. If currants and
mellons be included the supply may
be varied. Apples, pears, peaches and
cherry trees should also be planted,
but the small fruits will come into
hearing the next year, thus rendering
it easy for all to secure a supply with-
out loss of time.
A sow that tenderly cares for her
pigs is more valuable as a breeder
than one of better breeding but care-
less. The number of pigs annually
lost by careless sows is very large, and
it is more important to observe the dis-
position of a sow with her first litter.
Some sows however improve with age,
and an oid sow should never be re
placed by a younger and untried one
until her usefulness is impaired.
If manure is thoroughly composted
with rakings, sod or other refuse, it
will be of better quality than if heaped
and allowed to decompose rapidly.
There is sometimes quite a loss of
ammonia from manure that is exposed
or that is too closely packed, and the
addition of substances which absorb
the gases and prevent overheating not
only prevents loss but improves the
whole.
The bush lima bean has been intro-
duced quite extensively, isof the Swede
family and is rather small in size. It
requires a longer season than we have
in this latitude to permit it to fully
mature its crop, though it will afford
a supply for use. A large bush lima
is now being introduced, but the seed
is scarce as yet. Next season it will
be given a trial in many sections.
The milk from cows fed on whole-
some grain and good pasturage is of
better quality for food than that from
stall-fed animials that are permitted td
eat refuse matter from granaries and
factories without regard to breed.
Choice breeds to produce a choice arti-
cle must be provided with food of the
best quality for that purpose.
Mellons should be well hoed and cal-
tivated until they begin to run. The
very young plants may be hoed with
advantage, but after that time all cul-
tivation should be done without dis-
turbing the hills, Melon-growers aoe
in front of the vines, not among them,
as they soon cover the ground.
01d strawberry beds that have borne
well soon begin to give place to weeds,
* and the ground should be plowed as.
soon as the crop is harvested, and plant-
ed to late potatoes or Hungarian grass,
which destroys the weeds and cleans
the ground for next season.
Breeding from immature stock every
year will sooner or later tend to dete-
Tioration. It is better to use animals
in their prime than to replace them
with young stock. If a change is de-
sired reserve the younger stock until
fully developed.
O the new v.iies of ¢ naups
the Emerald gem is one of the best.
It is of medium size, and drops away
from the vine as soon as ripe. Though
not as attractive in appearance as
some varieties, it is unexcelled for uni-
formity of fruit and quality of flesh.
The moth of the codling worm de-
posits its eggs at the blossom end of
the apple soon after the apple is form-
ed. Sprinkle with paris green, not too
strong. Perhaps 1t may be necessary
to sprinkle in two weeks again.
Manure often contains seeds that
sprout. When spreading manure
work it into the soil well, and allow
time for the seed to germinate. Then
go over the field with a harrow from
time to time until ready to plant seed
for the crop desired.
The more frequently the grass is
cut the greater the tax on the land.
Use plenty of manure on all land in-
tended for grass next year. First kill
out all the weeds by cultivating the
land with a crop requiring the use of a
cultivator. :
One way to save transportation is to
raise everything needed that can be
grown on the farm, There are many
kinds of fruit not grown by farmers.
A Rhode Island farmer raises veal
calves to weigh 190 pounds when four
weeks old by allowing them warmed
skim-milk and oatmeal gruel. Such
calves should pay well.
Until farmers discard the feeding of
their hogs with sour, rotten swill, and
resort to clover or more wholesome
food, their herds will be affected with
disease.
The soil affects the quality of the
plants grown thereon to a certain ex-
tent. A crop of wheat from rich soil
contains more gluten than one from
poor soil.
Many animals appear sick and re-
fuse food, when the cause is due to the
toothache. They often suffer in that
respect.
Keep the land intended for turnips
well stirred with the cultivator so as
to kill the weeds before the seed goes
in the ground.
It is a mistake to suppose that peas,
beans, and corn should be covered
heavily. A slight covering is better.
When flies swarm around the stable
or hog-pen it is a sure sign that clean:
ing is necessary.
EE ————
A Few Fashion Points.
So great is the craze for roses that all
colors are employed in their manufac:
ture, and a new and stylish bonnet re-
cently displayed was decorated with
Lieliotrope rosebuds,
Most delicate and beautiful are the
new parasols made of white or colored
silk and covered with silk muslin of
the same shade put on plaited frills
over the entire surface, and finished
with a bow at the top. .
There is another novelty in gloves,
also of Russsan origin, designed tor
driving and country wear, which are
impervious to water and will stand any
number of rain-storms without acquir-
ing that unpleasant stiffness characteris-
tic ot ordinary kid.
This year, while all the essential
parts of a costume are supposed to har-
monize, it is not necessary that they
should match. Hats and bonnets are
no longer considered in good taste made
of a pieceof the dress, and one bonnet
in a neutral tint is made to do duty by
the economical with half a dozen
gowns.
Perhaps the most daring and curious
combination of colors yet perpetrated
by the great Parisian prince of imillio-
ers is a dress of pale fawn-colored silk
made up over a panel of pompadour
brocade in shades of white and pale
blue. Huge eyelet-holes were let into
the sides of the skirt that it might be
laced across the blue with green rib-
bons terminating in gold tags.
A
Yellow Garters Bring Bad Luck.
Said a pretty giv! to the writer yes-
terday : “Three of us girls happened to
be at my house one night when I read
an article in a newspaper that a yellow
garter on the left limb meant an en:
gagement in six months, and good
luck ever after. So we three decided
to wear them. We put them on the
next night. Thesix months will be
up to-morrov and not one of us has be-
come engaged. As for good lucs
which it is supposed to bring, let me
tell you of mine. During the six
months of expectancy I had a frightful
case of la grippe ; I had fallen and
sprained my ankle ; I had been cut by
the young man I liked best; 1 was
thrown off a horse and badly bruised,
and for the last week have hadgan ul-
cerated tooth. To-morrow the yellow
garter will have to go. I'd rather die
an old maid than suffer all the unlucky
ihings it has brought me while wait-
ing for a man. The yellow garter is a
fraud. It requires too great a stretch
of imagination. That's all.”— Kearney

Te THE HUNGRY PUBLIC.
Orme)
It is only those who
eat—the 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 pleasantl}it lis 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, eith-
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.
If you live in town drop

we carry.
