farm Notes,
It it not expensive to use double |
windows to the cellar if it is to be used
for storing potatoes or other crops.
The protection against cold thus af-
forded will be a sufficient remuneration
for the outlay.
The only good that can possibly re-
sult from the pratice of stripping is the
check 1t forms upon the carelessness
milkers, where a number are employed
and there are those of them that are
inclined to slight their work.
The short fruit crop the past season
will probably lessen the amount of
canned goods, and by the time the next
fruit crop comes in there will be a large
demand on the part of canners. Prices
should therefore be hich next year for
sore kinds of fruit.
Before preparing the the trees for
winter\by banking earth aronnd them,
ey careful search for the borer.
This should be done not only on peach
trees, but also on the young apple,
quince and pear trees, as the borer
sometimes works on all kinds.
A new screw bolt and an overhanl-
ing of implements may save valuable
time in the spring. No better mode of
employing rainy days in winter can be
suggested than that of thoroughly re-
pairing all farm implements,
When potting plants for winter use
rich earth or mold, and water them
freely for a few days until they recover
from their change of location. Weak
plants are reviyed by watering them
with a teaspoonful of ammonia in a
quart of warm water once a day.
The brood-mare that does the farm
work in the spring and summer and
produces a colt in the fall will be an
animal of value, The fall is the proper
time to have the mares foal, as the
colts can be weaned by spring, put ont
on the pasture, and the mares unen-
cumbered for spring work.
If you fail to make dairying pay and
your neighbor manages to make a little
money out of'it, see if he does not awn
better cows than vou do; if he has
not some secret about feeding which
you have not *‘caught on to,” and see
if there is not something in his man-
agement that yon might make profit-
able by adopting.
Buying damaged grain because it is
offered at a reduction is not the way to
buy cheap food. Cheap food is that
which gives the best results in propor-
tion to cost, and such food may be the
best to be obtained. Measure the cost
by the gain. Always aim to secure
the largest yields in the shortest possi-
ble period of time.
Rake up all the leaves that von can
get and store them in a dry place to be
used as bedding for the stalls. A few
leaves on the floor of the poultry-house
in winter, for the hens to scratch over,
will be found very beneficial in keeping
them thrifty. For brood sows -and
young pigs no better bedding or litter
can be had than leaves,
Poultry ueedt sunshine at certain
times. A glass window shaped like a
hot-bed covering a portion of a run
makes a shelter both for old and young
chicks, and when the heat becomes too
great they will of their own accord re-
tire to the shade of the inside of the
coop. Too much sun is worse than too
little ; it also tends to make them-lazy
and sleepy.
Galls oa the necks and hocks of
horses, or other similar abrasions,
should be washed with castile soap and
tepid, soft water, and afterward with
salted cold water. It will toughen the
skin. Avy indolent sores should be
kept clean with the soap and water. If
galls do not respond to the treatment
apply tannin, which may be had at any
drug store.
Bran meal and ground oats, scalded,
make an excellent mess for laying hens
on cold days. Feed it in the ‘morning,
and at night give wheat, allowing an
hour or more for the hens to scratch for
it, as the proper mode of feeding grain
is to throw it in Iitter such as leaves or
cut straw, in order that the hens may
work and exercise, which keeps them
in laying condition.
A harmless and non-poisonous rem-
edy against the attacks of eurculio,
according to the experiments of Profes-
sor Book, is ordinary land pleaster
(gypsum) mixed with crude carbolic
acid, one pint of acid to 50 pounds of
plaster. It must be very flne, dry, well
mixed, and thrown into the trees after
the blossoms fall, and repeat after each
rain. Bear this in mind for next sea-
son.
Bran is rich in nitrogen and the
phosphates. If fed to animals it is
vauable along for the manure, as a ton
of bran passed through the body
of an animal produces manure much
richer in nutrition than hay or other
grains. Bran is ‘excellent of itself as a
fertilizer when applied directly to crops
but more so after it has heen eaten by
stock, digested and voided.
A frequent advice is to dispose of
all animals not wanted, but one point
to be observed 1s that no animal should
be sold unless it is in a fit condition for
market. Once the frame work is ob-
tained it pays to crowd it with every
pound of meat it will hold. Ifyou have
not feed enongh buy more, for by so
doing that which does not tend to the
production of meat will be added to
the manure pile as manure.
If orchards were cultivated as regu-
larly as anv other crop on the farm
there would he fewer complaints of
blight yellows and other diseases ; the
trees would live longer and yield more
liberally. Some orchards are put down
to grass, so to remain for years, the re-
sult being that the crops are left to fall
and rot on the ground forlack ot quan-
ity, while the insects get the larger
share of fruit, as well as destroying the
vitality of the trees.

Outwitting the Teacher,
It requires a pretty smart school
teacher nowadays to get any the best
of a modern “Kid.” “This was never
uiore fully demonstrated than it was
the other dav, right here in one of the
Chicago schools where the old-iashioned
and unnatural method of teaching free-
arm writingiz employed, and the children
are obliged to twist their hands over
unnaturally in order to obtain the free-
arm movement. In order to insure
this position, the teacher places a small
shirt-button on the back of each little
right hand, as piano teachers some-
times place pennies on the backs of
their pupils’ hands. This is done to
insure the keeping of the hand in the
‘correct’ position, for if tipped in the
least the button slides off, and thus be-
trays the erring scholar. This button
arrangenient is quite tircsome to the
children, and they complain of it at
Tha other afternocn a bright
little girl returned from school and
said to her mother: “Mamma, I kept
the button on my hind nearly all day
to-day.” The mother expressed some
surprise at such a feat. “Yes,” said
the little one, “I gummed it on with a
piece of gum.”
WHERE WERE THE POLICE ?—A
hard cold met Kemp's Balsam on one of
our principal streets last night. They
have jong been deadly enemies. Hard
Cold hacked, as usual ; Kemp's Balsam
uncorked, and then they grappled. The
customary one-sided encounter took
piace and within fifteen minutes K. B.
had H. CO. under control. We are
authorized to offer $1,000 for any Hard
Cold that can knock the tar out of
Kemp's Balsam. Any druggist will ar-
range terins.

——It is a point for a boy erowing
up on the farm to consider that the
“farming trade,” well learned, will pay
him as well as, or better than any other
trade he can adopt. The boy who thor-

cesses, when he arrives at man’s estate is
as well equipped for the battle of life as
it is possible to be.
