Farm Notes.
White wash your trees, if for no
other purpose than to give an appear-
ance of neatness to your orchard.
A peach orchard requires about the
same cultivation as corn. No grass
should ever be grown in a peach or-
chard.
Do not be afraid to use wood ashes
on any kind of fruit crop. Lime is al-
80 beneficial on light sandy soils for
fruits.
Cut young peach trees back the first
year, and have them} low, which will
causethem to become stocky and less
liable to be shaken by the winds.
Plant more green peas, so as to have
a succession. Peas may be had on
the table until quite late in the season
if the crops are planted two weeks
apart.
Plum trees are found on many farms
but from which no fruit is taken, due
to the ravages of the curculio. This
may be prevented by giving some at-
tention to jarring the trees and killing
the depredators.
The high price of feed is causing the
flocks of poultry to be reduced. But
very little fcod is necessary to be sup-
plied at this season if the fowls have a
range. Hence it may be a mistake to
thin out the flocks before tall.
An Jowa farmer woman writes:
“The creamery has been the longest
step out of the old into the new. It
has taught us to skim the milk before
it spoiled, and to have sense enough to
stop churning before we spoil the but-
ter.
In setting out shade trees along the
roads use the walnut or hickory, as the
nuts can be made a source of profit.
Even the persimmon will be found
worthy of trial, and especially as it is a
tree that does not draw heavily on the
soil.
The smaller a field the mcre fence
required and the more land taken from
cultivation. The more oblong the
field the more fence required to inclose
a given area; conversely the nearer a
square is the field the less fence is re-
quired.
Make the new. strawberry plants
grow the first season. The yield of
next year will largely depend on the
growth and vigor of the plants from
now until the ground is covered with
runners. An application of some kind
of fertilizer will be beneficial.
In preparing milk for delivery to a
cheese factory it should, immediately
after straining, be thoroughly aired by
pouring, dipping or stirring. This
treatment is as beneficial for the morn-
ing’s milk as for the evening's, and is
even more necessary when the weather
is cool than when it warm.
The little maggots found at the roots
of peach trees may be destroyed by re-
moving the earth and pouring strong
soapsuds around the tree. To each
gallon of soapsuds add four ounces of
concentrated lye. Air-slaked lime is
also excellent for use, as it can be scat-
tered freely around the trees. ;
Cut away. the limbs of a cherry trees
that are attacked with black knot, and
burn the parts taken off, and the dis-
ease may be prevented, but unless de-
stroved by fire the parts removed will
enable the disease to spread by the dis-
semination of the spores, which are
carried to distant points by the winds.
Have your asparagus bed near the
house, so as to permit of throwing
your soapsuds and refuse liquids on
the bed. In thisway the crop can be
made to supply shoots of the largest
size. Soapsuds make a special fertili-
zer for asparagus and celery, and but
little manure will be required in addi-
tion.
Commercial fertilizers do not stock
the farm with weeds, which is a mat-
ter that should be considered when
comparing the cost of fertilizers with
manure. As much depends on the
kind ot fertilizers used, so also does
much depend on the condition of the
manure and its freedom from the seeds
of weeds.
In the United States, Holstien-Fries-
,ian butter has repeated competed with
that of other breeds, including Jerseys,
and have been awarded the highest |
prizes. Not only individual cows, but
entire herds of Holsteins, have defeat-
ed Jerseys in maging large milk and
butter records, and many of these |
stand at the head to-day.
Corn has 6 per cent. of fat forming
element, and wheat but little over 1
per cent. The seeds of sunflowers,
castor-heans, etc., contain oil varying
from 10 to 60 per cent. Bat fat is re:
quired only forspecial purposes—heat
in winter, or weight on animals intend-
ed for sale. It is the flesh forming
foods that are really the most valuable.
Professor John B. Smith, ot the
New Jersey Experiment station, he-
lieves that the peach louse which in
fests the roots of the peach trees, is re
sponsible for much of the so-called
“iveilows’” that exists in the State.
Potash, in the form of kainit, dug into
the roots, he believes to be a remedy
and at the =ame time a fertilizer. To-
baceo due in has a similar effect.
Protessor Farlow, of Harvard Uni. |
vereitv, has discovered that simply
painting black-knot in plums, with a
mixture of red oxide of iron in linseed
oil. has not only prevented the spread
of the contagion, hut has stopped the
growth of the disersed parts, so that
the knots have crumbled and fallen
away with the least possible injury to
the tree.
If you want your young chicks to
grow feed them often and keep the lice
away. How ? Dust your henhonse thor-
oughly with good insect powder, clean
out and whitewash your chicken coop
put a little chaff on the bottom and
sprinkle with kerosene oil on 1t, rub a
small piece of lard on the neck of each
chick, and we garantee you won't have
any lice for a spell.
does not possesses merit.
All Italy Coming Over.
Villages Being Depopulaled by the Im-
migration to America.
Rome, May 5.—America is draining
away the population of some parts of
Italy with remarkable rapidity. The
oxodus is most marked in the Polesine
region, on the Po, near Parma, where
400 out of 2000 tamilies have emigrated
this year. Ninety-five families left Cres-
pino together last year. Gavello, which
a year ago had 5000 inhabitants, now
has but 800. Polesella has lost thirty-
seven families, who all departed at one
time. The movement from Rovigo, on
the Adige, is so extensive that special
trains are run frem there to Genoa
daily to accommodate the immigrants,
The effect of so many departures is
beginning to be shown in an alarming
manner. Husbandry and trade languish
for lack of employes. The authorities
would gladly adopt some method of
checking the movement if they could.
The Fruit Prospect Good.
According to the crop report issued
by the signal service, crops and fruit
were not generally or seriously damaged
by the recent frosts. Reports from
Adams, Berks, Bucks, and Chester
counties say that tender vegetation and
early fruits in those localities were
damaged to some extent. In Cumber-
land county peaches are as large us
beans, and there never was a better
prospect for a good yield of fruit.
Strawberries and early vegetables in
some parts of the State were nipped, but
in other sections there was an entire
absence of any damage, which is quite
remarkable, considering the unseason-
able conditions which have existed. The
report says that in the Middle Atlantic
States damage to fruit from the recent
frosts is much less than at first re-
ported.
Ahvantage of Holding Wheat.
New CastLE, Ind., May 8.—Will-
iam Wrightman, living near Middle-
town, who has kept several hundred
bushels of wheat stored in his barn for a
year, while removing the wheat for
market found in the grainan old pock-
etbook containing $11,500 in gold coin
and paper currency. How the money
came there is a mystery. The money
has been placed in bank at Middletown.
“WE Point Wire Pripe.”—To the

their appetites. We have
oeen 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-
slantials ; 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
