Blab "Bellefonte, Pa., Feb. 12, 1892. Farm Notes. In a few weeks onions will receive attention, as the crop is the first one planted and in this section the sets are sometimes set out in March, the prin- cipal crops being grown from sets of last year, rather than from seed. To procure the sets the seeds must be planted the preceding year. Mr. T. Greiner, of LaSalle, N. Y., who has contributed so many valuable articles to agricultural journals on onion and potato growing, has, by experiment, learned to produce an early crop from seed the first year, to secure large yields, and to realize high prices. In a recent communication to the Farm and Fireside, he states that he ships on- ions to market in crates holding three- fourths of a bushel, and receives one dollar per crate, and that on the proper soil, the use of suitable varieties, and liberal application of manure and fer- tilizers, as many as 1000 bush- els per acre of onions may be grown, which is very remunerative compared with many other crops. As many will be interested in his method, it may be stated that the vari- eties are mostly of the “Prize Faker” and “Spanish King,” the *Victoria” being preferred asa white onion, which can be marketed earlier than the “Denver Yellow,” grown in the old way, and other varieties may be grown in the same way, to be marketed in the fall. Seed should be sown as early as hotbeds can be started, in February, or early in March, about a pound and a half of seed being required to grow plants enough for one acre. Sow the seed in hotbeds in rows, and ounce and a half of seed to an ordinary sash, and keep the bed clear of weeds. The young plants are ready for the open ground when they are of the thickness of a lead pencil. How to manage the cow in her stall is one of the difficulties as great as that of feeding. Unless great care is taken, a cow 18 liable to void her droppings where she will come in contact with them, when taking her rest. Stanch- ions are but partial remedies, and to resort to an extreme is to cause discom- fort to the animal. Despite all the pre- cautions that may be taken, a portion of the filth dries on the hide of the cow and also on the udder. The necessity of washing the udder and teats with warm soap and water, rinsing with clear water and wiping with a clean towel shoud be apparent to all, yet the precaution is seldom practiced, and disease goes into milk, the strainer be- ing no protection. The rows should be twelve inches apart, and the plants three inches apart in the rows. Of course, this close planting calls for much labor, and the transplanting of the young onions is al- 80 a heavy job, but it must not be over- looked that the labor usually given to a crop grown from seed in the open ground, before the young onions appear, 1s also quite an item, as well as the great amount of seed required, hence the transplanting in the end proves very profitable. The crop is best culti- vated with hand hoes and wheel hoes. Onions transplant very easily, and gozcd plants seldom die. Every farmer knows how unsightly the tufts of grass appear in the pasture which have been stimulated by the droppings of the animals. When the cows are on the pasture it will pay to collect this manure daily, or go into the fields with a rake and scatter it. This may appear like extra labor, but it will pay, as the manure will confer greater benefit to the field and to the grass. Cattle seem to avoid these tufts, and until the field is plowed again some of the land will become poorer and oth- er.portions richer. a sudden change from the dry food of*winter to green food is liable to cause the cows to fall off in milk, owing to the “scours” Where ensilage has been used the liability is not so great. Young rye aud early grasses are most- ly water in composition and are very laxative. The best method is to allow the animals on theearly rye but a short time at first, gradually extending the indulgence untii the risk of bowel dis- order has passed. In Wester: New York. where grapes are grown aud kept uutii Christmas, the yield ol an acreis estimated at about four tons, while the cost of the labor is said to be no greater than for an acre of corn. The grapes, however even when prices are low, give four times the profit deriyed from corn. Some seasons the grape crop brings high prices in that section, as they us- ually reach the market when the main supply is over. Currants have been neglected of re- cent years, owing to the ravages of ene- mies, yet the enemies can be kept in check by proper remedies and care. As many as 2000 bushels can be plant- ed on an acre, and a good, thriity bush can be made to produce as many as 5 | The soil requires | pounds of currants, 1 ACross being kept clean and plenty of manure | should be applied. There is no sure remedy for mildew in gooseberries. It may be avoided to a certain extent, however, by trimming the bushes so as to give them an open head, which allows the air and sun- light to reach the ceatre of the bush more freely. a ——— The Most Important Enterprise in the World. Warner Miller in the February Forum. To-day the building of the Nicarau- gua Canal is the most itportant enter- prise demanding the attention of the world. From the discovery of America until the present time a passage fron: the Atlantic to the Pacific, across Cen- tral America, has been sought ; private capital has been freely expended in seeking the best route, our government has sent oui numerous expeditions and surveyed the Isthmus. The result of all these efforts hes been to establish firmly the fact that ine only favorable route, at a reasonabie cost, is the one Nicaraugua. At the present time an hones t effort is being made to construct the canal bya corporation composed of Americans. I believe the close of the present century will see the canal an accomplished fact. ———— This is Meant for You. It has been truly sail that balf the world does not know how the other half lives. Comparatively few of us have perfect health, owing to the impure con- dition of our blood. But we rub alon from day tvday, with scarcely a thought unless forced to our attention, of the thousands all about us who are suffering from scrofula, salt rheum and other ser- ious blood disorders, and whose agonies, can only be imagined. The marked success of Hood’s Sarsaparilla for these troubles, as shown in our advertising columns frequently, certainly seems wo Justify urging the use of this excellent medicine by all who know that their blood is disordered. Every claim in be- half of Hoed’s Sarsaparilla is fully backed up by what the medicine has done and is still doing, and when its proprietors urge its merits and its use upon all who suffer from impure blood, in great or small degrees, they certainly mean to include you. — A Murder Explained. “Jule ” remarked Brutus as he stroll- ed into the great Caesar’s tent, “did I ever tell you ofthe fight Ionce had among the Allobroges?”’ Gets off a long, windy tale involving the single handed slaughter of eleven ferocious barbarians. “Brute, my boy,” remarked Caesar solemnly when he had finished, “I ad- mire Gaul, especially Transalpine Gaul, but still I must say that you remind me of a barp shattered by the lightning of great Jove.” “How so?” inquired Brutus, un- warily. “Because you're a blasted lyre,” an- swered Caesar. And from that day forth Brutus began to meditate on the Ides of March.— Fale Record. LI SR SA CS “Give Us a Lift.” “Do send down something to help us!” “These little Pleasant Pellets, you sent before were just what we wanted !” “They helped right where we were weakest |” “Don’t send anything else I”? Nature abused and neglected, does her best to overcome exhaustion and ward off threatening disease, but some- times calls for help, and knows just what she's about. The system takes kindly to the mild, wholesome influence of Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets, and often their timely assistance corrects evils which would soon lead to serious resalts. With the first signal of distress, nature will thank you for remembering her re- quest. Therefore, if languid, easily tired bad taste in mouth, bowels irregu- lar or constipated, give nature a lift by taking Dr. Pierce’s Pellets. Best Liver Pill made. Big Men's age.

A Cause of Crime. Hon. Richard Vaux, of Philadelphia, recently completed fifty years’ service as an inspector of the eastern penitentiary of this State. Forty vears of this time he was president of 1ts board of directors. In a recent interview ho states that of the 1,055 inmates now in the institution by far the greater number have at least the benefit of a common school training, some of them are well educat- ed, and many of great intelligence, and have had years of experience among books and have held high places, What then is the leading cause of crime? Mr. Vaux®statesit in a few words: “Ot the entire 1,055 inmates in the peniten- tiary, there are not over three who know a trade.” And be adds: “I be- lieve the possession of a trade is one of the greatest preventives of crime.” There are few good mechanics in the State prisons. This is the judgment of an able and sind®re man, who has de- voted very largely fifty years of his life to the study of criminals in a practical way. Idleness, lack ot industrial train- ing, the absence of habit of application, are the great incentives to a criminal life, This applies especially to those who have a fair start in life—that is, not as, as some, vicious and lawless by inheritance.— Brookville Democrat. ———— Trusted for a Million. Deacon White's Creditors Astonish Wicked Wall Street. NEw York, Feb. 1..-S. V. White was formally posted on the New York Stock Exchange to-day as a candidate for re-admission. The committee will vote on the application on Thursday. The termsof Mr. White's settlement with his creditors were made known to- day. They have no precedent in the history of Wall street. In a word, his New York creditors, representing $1,000,000, have taken his word to pay up with interest as soon as he is able. All have signed off their claims and have given Mr. White a full release, They asked for no paper for him in ac- knowledgment of the claims, Mr. White said to them : “Gentlemen, I will pay you with interest when I get on my feet again.” This is in evidence in the Stock Exchange Committee. There being, therefore no claims against Mr. White, his re-admission is not disputed. To his Chicago creditors Mr. White was able to pay 50 cents on the dollar. —————— Governor Boyd Expresses Himself, Osama, Feb, 2.—Governer Boyd when informed of the decision of the Supreme Court, said: “Of course I do not know what course Mr. Thayer will pursue, but [ suppose he will at once vacate the chair. I cannot now say when Ishall go to Lincoln and formally take my seat as Governor. As I have heen inaugurated I can serve just the same in Omaha for a day or as in Lincoln. Mr. Thayer can- not now even act as Governor. Any papers which he may sign as such or appointments he may make would be illegal. So I cannot think that he will attempt to hold the office any longer.” Semiannual Experience. Wife (after house cleaning)—It takes a woman to bring order out of the chaos.

We extend a most cordial invitation to our patrons and the public, in general, to witness one of the GRANDEST DISPLAYS OF Light and Heavy Harness ever put on the Bellefonte market, which will be made in the large room, formerly occupied by Harper Bros., on Spring street. It has been added to my factory and will be used exclu- sively for tha sale of harness, being the first exclusive salesroom ever used in this town, as heretofore the custom has been to sell goods in the room in which they were made. This elegant room has been refitted and furnished with glass cases in which the harness can be nicely displayed and still kept away from heat and dust, the enemies of long wear in leather. Our factory now Scouplgs a room 16x74 feet and the store 20x60 added makes it the largest establishment of its kind outside of Philadelphia and Pittsburg. We are prepared to offer better bargains in the future than we have done in the past and we want everyone to see our goods and get prices for when you do this, out of self defense i will buy.

We are not making much, but trade is growing and that is what we are interested in now. Profits will take care of themselves. When other houses discharged their work- men during the winter they were all put to work in my factory, nevertheless the bi ?) houses of this city'and county would smile if we compared ourselves to them, but we do’ not mean to be so odious, except to venture the as- section that none of them can say, as we can say “NO ONE OWES US A CENT THAT WE CAN'T GET.” This is the whole story.
