Farm Notes.
Good cattle and poor pastures will
not prove profitable. The capacity o
an animal should be utilized to its fullest
extent, and to fail to provide it with
everything required to secure the great-
est possible production from the animal
is to throw away the principal advan-
tage in its ownership. Good stock will
not thrive except under the most favor-
able conditions, chief among which is
a full supply of food adapted to the pur-
pose required of the animal.-
The demand for broilers has been
excedingly good this season, and high
prices have been secured. Poultry of
all kinds haye kept well up in prices.
At this season, when insect food and
grass is plentiful, the hens should cost
but little food, and although prices tor
eggs may be low, yet they will give a
profit at this season, as the expenses of
keeping poultry are lessened.
Those who have transplanted egg-
plants should keep a close watch over
them.’ The potato beetle will leave the
potato for the egg-plant, and it requires
but a few hours to have all the plants
destroyed. If the nights are very cool
and the plants are but few, they may
be covered as a protection, as they will
turn yellow if the nights are cool.
If seed does not germinate, procure
seed from elsewhere. Itis sometimes
the case that seeds are damaged, not
only by exposure but by age, and a
complete change may be beneficial.
If the soil is cold, however, a large pro-
portion of seed will rot in the ground
for lack of sufficient warmth to induce
germination,
Those who have made a specialty
of nuts say that it pays to grow them
more especially if the tree is of a kind
that can be converted into valuable
lumber in the future. The larger euch
trees are the more valuable ground they
occupy. Even ifbut a year or two old,
they add greater value to the land.
Does it surprise you to be told that
vines about a house do not make a
building damp, but, on the contrary,
their myriads of tendrils and root-like
shoots absorb every particle of mois-
ture and miasma, rendering the sur-
face of the building dry and purified.
When pear trees do not grow rapid-
ly they should have an application of
wood ashes, while trimming the ends
of the young branches will induce them
to send out shoots and thicken the
tops. Sometimes working _arouid
the tpees with a cultivator will give
them a new start.
To kill the peach-tree lice two or
three applications of strong soapsuds
should be sprayed on the trees. Some-
times the first application will suffice,
bnt not always. The buds are destroy-
ed and the limbs stripped, the young
and tender growth being preferred.
To prevent cut-worms from cutting
corn : The last time you harrow your
ground before planting sow one peck.
of oats ; then lay off and plant your
corn. The worms like oats better
than corn, aud will eat it, leaving your
corn safe.
As soon as the cabbaves begin to
head they will be attacked by the
white butterfly, which is the parent of
the cabbage worm. Every butterfly
should be killed, which is not difficult
when they first appear, as they are not
usually then numerous.
There is nothing more ornamental
to the front yard than an evergreen
hedge if it is kept neatly trimmed, but
there is, on the contrary, nothing
more unsightly if the hedge is neglect-
ed. All hedges should be kept neatly
trimmed, and kept in shape.
Every two weeks take a brush and
can and thoroughly paint the roosts
with kerosene.- About once in two
months during the warm season give
the interior of the hen-house a; good
white-washing. -
Sheep prefer short grass and thrive
best on pastures that permit them to
graze close to the ground. All fields
with heavy growths of grass may be
mowed to advantage before turning on
the sheep.
Do not plant pumpkins near the
mslons. The pumpkins may be grown
in the cornfield if the grass and weeds
are not in a condition to demand
frequent cultivation.
Do not use paris green on, potatoes.
too frequently. ‘It requires but a small
quantity to prevent damage from bee-
tles,which should only be applied when
required.
Dried or "dead roots on trees or
plants should be cutoff before planting.
Lf the young tree has but little root it
will not thrive if the top is not well cut
back.
Cuat-worms do more damage to the
sweet potato plants than to any other
crop, and whenever a plant is cut down
the worm should be dug out and
killed. :
Thin out the early beets and turnips
if they are too thick in the rows, as it
will give more room and couseqtently
earlier crops, | al
Using the long scion and a short root
is claimed by many nurserymen’ to be
the only true way in root-grafting oper

Always water plants in the evening, |
and never when the sun is right over |
them. Do not water them too often.
Poultry droppings, well worked in-

And Cora Pearl Knew it Not.
Several years ago the residence of
Cora Pearl in Paris was entered by
thieves and robbed of $120,000. One
of the robbers was captured and con-
demued to five years’ imprisonment,
but the property was not then recover-
ed. On his liberation from prison late-
ly he endeavored to raise a sum from
a banker, with which he might go to
Germany and redeem the stolen pro-
perty tbat had been deposited in a
German bank. The banker’s suspici-
ons were excited and the man was ar-
rested, and has revealed thn name of
his accomplice. The great sum may
be recovered, but too late to be of any
value to Cora Pearl, who died in desti-
tution, after having vainly endeavored
to make a little money by publishing
her memoirs. :
Weak WomEeN.—The more sensitive
nature of the female sex renders women
much more susceptible than men to
those numerous ills which spring from
lack of harmony in the system. The ner-
vous system gives way, sick headache is
frequent, the appetite is lost, and other
ailments peculiar to the sex cause great
suftering. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is pecu-
liarly adapted for such cases, and has re-
ceived the most gratifying praise for the
relief it has afforded thousands of wo-
men whose very existence before taking
it, was only misery. It strengthens the
nerves, cures sick headache and indiges-
tion, purifies and vitalizes the blood,
and gives regular and healthy action to
every organ in the body.
——There are many very warm spots
in the tor rid zone. but Bohrin, by the
Gulf of Persia, seems to be, as far as
temperature goes, absolutely without a
rival. For forty consecutive days in
July and August last year, which was
by no meansan exceptional season, the
thermometer was known not to fall low-
er than 100 degrees Fahrenheit, night
or day, and often ran up as high as 128
degrees in the afternoon.
Woman's Work.—There is no end
to the tasks whieh daily confront the
good housewife. To be a successful
housekeeper, the first requisite is good
health. How can a woman contend
against the trials and worries of house-
keeping if she be suffering from those
distressing irregularities, ailment and
weaknesses peculiar to her sex? Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is a speci-
fic for these disorders. The only remedy
sold by druggists, under a positive
guarantee from the manufacturers.
Satisfaction guaranteed in every case, or
money refunded. See printed guaran-
tee on bottle wrapper.
Carervn witha Kixps Worps—A
merchant in a certain Texas town is a
great flunkey after people who are rich,
and has a corresponding contempt for
those that are in failing circumstances.
One day he remarked to his clerk:
“Have you written that letter to
Smith, Jones & Co.?”’
“Yes, sir.”
“Have you signed it ?”’
“Not yet.”
“Well, in signing it do not put:
‘Very respectfully yours.” Just leave
out ‘very.’ There are rumors that they
are embarrassed, and we have got no
taffy to throw away on beggars.”
Ax Optical ILnusioN—A gentle-
man who imagined that he recognized:
a lady friend advanced cordially and
addressed her:
“I beg pardon,” he said, ‘but isn’t !
this Miss Greenleaf ?”’
“No, sir,’ replied the lady, “my
name is Redpath.”
“Ah, excuse me—I must be color
blind.”

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 pleasant}it lis tolre-
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-
slantials ; and knowing this
there is nothing that is eat-
able, relishablé 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 ithe 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.
If you live in the country
come in the first time you
come to town and learn how
easy it is to get good, pure,
fresh groceries, as low if
not lower than many have
been in the habit of paying
for old, impure and
strengthless di of diet.

farm produces bringlit along:
