Democratic: lated Bellefonte, Pa., August 8, 1890. Farm Notes. As many as sixteen tons of sugar ‘beets may be grown on an acre, and if they cannot be converted nto sugar they can be used as food for stock. Good, well-cured hay, is an article of food that seldom causes any ill effects. All classes of stock may eat their fill of it without danger of colic and other complaints of the bowels. Potato rot developes most in damp locations and during very warm weath- er. One of the cheapest remedies for lessening the ravages of the rot is to dust the leaves with air-slaked lime. If a heavy, strong-growing hedge is desired, the honey locust will answer the purpose. The trees will, in a few years, closely interlock and become al- most impregnable. Three-quarters of an ounce of salt toa pound will be the rizht quantity for most markets for immediate consump- tion, and one ounce to a pound for packed butter. Kickers among colts and calves are usually bred, not born. Handle them gently and kindly and kickers will be rare. Teasing by heedless hoys and hired men originates most of the farm kickers. It is better to pinch off all the fruit than to allow it to begin to bear too early in life. The tree like the ani- mal, should first make growth before beginning to produce. Premature pro- duction results in premature decay. The quicker the grower made by a plant the better it endure drought and insect :atrtacks. To secure rapid growth cultivate the plants well, and thus les- sen the disadvantages of a prolong- ed dry spell, which may come at any time. The truest test of a cow’s dairy qual- ities is to test her for a full year, or from the date of dropping one calf un- til the next one is dropped. Tests for a week or a month after a special pre- paration are delusive. The agricultural colleges have done much for agriculture by teaching the farmer and stockman the true value of foods. This knowledge teaches him not only how to feed properly, but also how to avoid waste. Wheat and oats should he given al- ternately to the hens—oats always dry; wheat either dry or cooked. We have invariably had good results from feed- ing sound wheat boiled or bursting, says Field and Farm. Milk cavs should be washed in “cold or tepid water first, and then rins- ed in boiling water before they are ex- posed to be aired. The addition of a little soda and borax to the hot water increases itscleansing propensities. According to California fruit growers rhubarb may be forced by placing kegs or half barrels over the plants and surrounding the same with heat- ing manure. The tops of the barrels or kegs can be covered with boards or sacks. Ohio Farmer declares that it is a waste of cash product to feed: a calf whole milk after his rennent stomach changes so as to call for solid food, and it is a mistake to so feed it after it ‘i810 days old. It considers warm skimmed milk and a little oatmeal much better. If you want a paying dairy do not breed everything. Ifyou do you will accomplish about as much as the man who shoots at random expecting to kill all the game. When you breed, breed for something. Aim at some ‘idea of excellence, using proper means, and you will be sure ot improvement. One of the results of pasturing cows in a wood lot is said to be grubs in their backs, which are certainly sometimes found. The same authority says that the remedy in many cases (certainly when near a town and where land is ‘valuable) is that the cow owner had better not pasture at all. Soiling is the better way. H. P. Hopkins, of New York, avers that every time he churns unripe cream he loses. Heeays: “When cream is a trifle acid it is sufficiently ripened. I prefer a concussion churn to the friction churn. White specks in. but- ter come from coagulation of the milk, which settles to the bottom of the cans. "They should be washed out properly. The attacks of the striped cucumber beetle are repelled by planting beans in ‘each hill with the cucumber seed. ‘Gas, lime or tobacco dust, applied with a bellows at least once a week,or better twice, is good for woolly aphis. For flea beetle mix thoroughly one tea- spoonful paris green with one quart of flour ; this to be dusted on the plants while wet with dew. Where skimmed milk is plentiful de- vote a portion of it at least to your poultry. Supply it occasionzlly in form of curd made by heating the milk until the whey separates from the sol- id part. Milk is very nutritious, and as its constituents closely resemble the white of the egg it is especially desir- able for laying fowls. Clabbered milk is also eagerly eaten by fowls and is good for them. Experiments at the Cornell (Ithaca, N. Y.) station show that horse manure thrown in a loose pile and subjected to the action of the weathor loses one- half its value as a fertilizer. Manure that simply dries without heating is vot damaged materially. It pays, therefore, to haul ont and scatter ma- nure as it is made, thereby saving it all; or, inelieu of this, it should be kept covered. Experiments on the farm need not always be successful. They often teach what not to do, which is just as important as knowing what todo. All the experiments that may be made by scientists in the interests of the farmer ! are not as valuable to him as those coming under hisexperience on his farm, and the farmer who fails to experiment will deprive himself of much useful ‘knowledge. . A modest, sensitive woman often shrinks from consulting a physician about functional derangement, and pre- fers to suffer in silence. This may be a mistaken feeling, but it is one which is largely prevalent. To all such women we would say that one of the most skill- ful physieians of the day, who has had a vast experience in curing diseases pe- culiar to women, has prepared a remedy which is of inestimable aid to them. ‘We refer to Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pres- cription, This is the only remedy for woman’s peculiar weaknesses and ail- ments, sold by druggists, under a posi- tive guarantee from the manufacturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case or money refunded.

THe OLp ProBLEM.— “Were you ever in love before, Edwin ?”’ “Great Caesar,” he cried, in anguish, “am I never to be free from that awful question ?” “And what is strange about it ?”’ “All the girls I ever loved have ask- ed it, and when I answer ’em ‘yes,’ they answer they wouldn’t have thought it from the way I acted, And now here you are laying wires to ring in the same old conundrum.”—San Francisco Wasp A ToorusomME PuppING.—Put twelve: egg yelks in a bowl with a pound of white sugar and beat very light. Add half a pound of creamed butter. Shred up halt a pound of citron, grate half a pound of cocoanut; blanch and pound a quarter of a pound of almonds and add these with the grated rind of a fresh lemon.

It is only those who eat—the many who re- quire the necessities of life, to prolong their ex- istence, that we address, who think Those use no- thing,—who they need nothing,—who live on expectation, hope or some intangible nothing, will save time by passing this column by. It is not 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, wholesomeJand 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, Wang 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 tolre- side in a community where people enjoy good health, ‘than among dyspeptic com- Rin 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 noting 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. Ifyou live in town drop in and see what all we have and what quality [of goods we carry. Iiyou 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 strengthlessarticles of diet.
