farm Notes.
Itis a mistake to buy two-year old
trees instead of those that are younger.
Young trees will start off better, and
make more roots than will large ones.
If a young tree and a tree two or three
years old are planted side by side, the
younger one will overtake the other,
and thrive better. In the method of
planting is one of the secrets of success.
Remove the top soil, and place 1t to
oneside. Then makea hole two feet
square, and deep enough to allow of
firmly planting the tree. Cut off the
ends of all bruised roots, and spread
the roots out well in the hole, throw-
ing the topsoil in on the roots, pressing
it firmly, and pouring water in plenti
fully, Fill up with the soil removed
last, making a mound at the base of
the tree. No manure to be used, but
old bones may be well pounded and
put into the hole, mixed with the soil.
Cover with a light mulch, which
should be removed after the trees begin
to shoot. Do not be afraid to cut the
trees back so as to have them stocky,
and do not leave on too many new
shoots, and rab off all that may ap-
pear afterwards.
Apple and pear trees should be kept
clear the first year. A grass crop may
then be grown in the orchard, provid-
ed a second growth is turned under,
the object being not to force such trees
too rapidly, especially the pear, as it
may blight. Peach trees should be
cut back severely every year, and
should be kept well cultivated and
clean, as a grass crop is fatal to a
peach orchard. After the trees have
been on the ground a year the land
should receive an application of wood
ashes and ground bone, and for peaches
the ground should be cultivated two or
three times a year, or as often as the
grass begins to take possession. When
buying new trees always carefully ex-
amine for signs of the borer, and aim
- to procure trees from some section that
is free from diseases of trees.
Whether for market or for the use
of the family, the best varieties of
fruit should beselected, and every farm
should have, if possible, ot only ap-
ples, but pears, peaches, quinces, and
all the kinds of small fruits. Once an
orchard of trees is established, but lit-
tle labor of cultivation is required coms
pared with other crops, while the pro-
fit is much greater in proportion to the
area of land occupied and the labor be-
stowed. Fruit is really a luxury, and
on the farm a crop is very useful, as a
large portion may be preserved for
winter use.
It has been discovered that potatoes
can be prevented from sprouting by
immersing them for ten hours in a so-
lution of one part sulphuric acid in
fifty parts water, in a wooden tank,
without injury to the potatoes. A trial
of the process, with a few potatoes,
will not cost over 5 cents.
The insect-powder plant, *Pyreth-
rum Roseum,” isa handsome, peren-
nial flower, which can be grown in any
flower garden. The dried and pulver-
ized flowers constitute the insect pow-
der. The seed can be purchased of
any seedsman. It is worth a place in
the flower yard.
Of the early peas, Alaska is very
early, and the American Wonder is
also an excellent early variety, being
wrinkled (which 1s usually an indica-
tion of the quality), and Little Gem is
another variety that will give good re-
sults. Plant peas early.
Many early plants can be given a
start by planting the seeds on inverted
sods, in a hot bed, or cold frame,
transplanting the sods to the open
ground after danger of frost is over.
Lima beans, melors, squashes and
early corn may be so treated.
Radishes may be grown on ground
that will really take up no extra room,
as they will thrive well between rows
of early cabbage or peas. They grow
80 quickly that they will be out of the
way before the other crops will have
made much growth.
Radishes are very handy and may
be easily forced and grown in a cold
frame, as they do not require as much
warmth as some plants, The hest vad-
ishes are those that are very quickly
grown, which makes them tender and
crisp.
Squashes are good feed for milch
cows. They produce rich milk and
we find them, from our own experi-
ence, preferable to pumpkins. They
are first rate food also for fattening
hogs.
Now is the time to root your cuttings
of geraniums, coleus, petunias and
other plants, in sand boxes, in a warm
place. Put the slips in small pots as
tpn as they are rooted in the ‘sand
0X.
A few crab apples of the best sort
should have a place in every orchard,
or they may be planted about the
home grounds, as they are quite orna-
mental for a good portion of the year.
George A. Smich, speaking at a re-
cent New York institute, said the cow
should not be salted periodically—
once or twice a week—but be given
free access to it at all times,
Itis true in breediug as well as in
growing crops the man who weeds the
closest and inost intelligently is the one
who grows the largest crop at the
least cost.
The man who willfully deprives his
family of the privileges ofa good vege-
table garden fails in one of his fore-
most duties,

A Few Biased Opinions.
It is comparatively seldom that the
real hero can spare time from heroism
to get his picture into the newspapers.
The true philanthropist is doubly to
be admired when it is considered how
little there is in his fellow-man that is
really loveable.
It will be a literary blessing if Rud-
yard Kipling’s marriage does no more
than change his persistent “I” into an
occasional “we.” ;
Perhaps the disposition to -‘kick a
man when he is down’’ would not be so
great if he had not gone out of his way
to make enemies while he was up.—

A Ten Dollar Gold Piece for a Cent.
Sometime ago, a gentleman bet that if
he stood at the corner of Broadway and
Fourteenth Street, New York, and of-
fered gold Eagles to the passers-by fora
cent each, he would find no purchasers.
The experiment was tried, and it turned
out just as he said.
lieve tnat the equally remarkable offer
is that made by the proprietors of Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, the
sovereign cure for Consumption. Think
of it ! restoration to life and health for a
mere song, There is not a case of Lung
scrofula—in other words, Consumption
—that will not yield to it, if it is taken
intime. Tt is the greatest blood-purifi-
er ever know, and is guararteed to bene-
fit or curein all diseases of the throat
and lungs. or money refunded. Only
extraordinary curative properties could
warrant or sustain its makers in selling
it thus, on trial !
Buried in Silver.
William L. Scott was buried in a
magnificent coffin, the manufacture of
which required seventy-six pounds of
solid silver, besides quantities of silk
and broadcloth, The undertakers say
that within their recollection only one
other American, Samuel J. Tilden,
ever had his mortal clay housed so
elaborately. The use of gold hars and
solid gold plates on expensive caskets
is not unusual, but so lavish a use of
solid silver is unprecedented.-—San
Francisco Argonaut.
A Philosopher's ‘Opinion.
Voitaire said to a beautiful young la-
dy with whom he was dining, “Your
rivals are the perfection of art ; you are
the pertection of nature.” This could
not have been said if the young lady
was suffering from disease, and pain had
left its signs on the features, Women
who want to keep beautiful, and be the
*‘perfection of nature,” should use *Fav-
orite Prescription” to assist Nature
when needed, to correct irregularties,
aid circulation and digestion, and there-
by elear up the skin, rendering it soft |
and beautiful. Dr. Pierce's Favorite |
Prescription is the only medicine for
woman’s peenliar ills, sold through
druggists, and guaranteed to give satis-
Zpunn in every case, or money refund-
ed.
The authorities at Yale have de-
cided to open to women their university
departments, though not their under-
graduate courses, and to grant the Doc-
torate in Philosophy to both sexes on
equal terms, Simultaneously the Scot-
tisk University of St. Andrews has done
the same thing. The old intolerance
which denied the higher education to
women merely because they are women
is disappearing from a world that is
slowly growing civilized and sensible.

ProNoUNCED HoPELEsSs, YET SAVED.
—From a letter written by Mrs. Ada
E. Hurd, of Groton, 8. D., we quote :
“Was taken with a bad cold, which set-
tled on my Lungs, cough set in and fin-
ally terminated in Consumption. I
gave myself up, saying I could live but
ashort time. I gave myself up to my
Saviour, determined if I could not stay
with my friends on earth, I would meet
my absent ones above. My husband
was advised to get Dr, King’s New Dis-
covery for Consumption Coughs and
Colds. I gave ita trial, took in all,
eight bottles ; it has cured me, and
thank God I am now a well and hearty
woman.” Trial bottles free at Parrish’s

Extracts from a Lecture on Brazil.
Colonel Adams alluded to the Bra-
zilian woman and contrasted their life
with that of American women. He
said that in Brazil the women are kept
secluded, rarely appearing in public,ex-
cept at a ball or in the theatre, so that
the men experience great difficulty in
securing the pleasure of a stroil or
drive with the fair objects of their ad-
miration. When the women do allow
themselves to be seen, however, they
bedeck themselves in the most gorgeous
costumes, the wealthier classes wear-
ing enormous quantities of jewelry.
In speaking of the street cars of Bra-
zil, Colone! Adams called attention to
the fact that they were always kept
very clean and that there was no such
thing allowed as the crowding of cars
beyond their actual seating capacity.
The street cars are drawn by mules of
small size and at a gait that would pat
the Philadelphia street cars to shame,
80 that the ten cent fare which is
charged does not seem at all exorbi-
tant.

HARNESS HOUSE.
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 the 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
nicely displayed and still kept away ‘rom
heat and dust, the enemies of long wear in
leather. Our factory now occupies 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
ou will buy. Our profits are not large, but
selling lots of goods we can afford to live in
Bellefonte. We are not indulging in idle
philanthropy. It is purely business. We are
not making much, but trade is growing and
that is what we are intrested in now. Profits
will take care of themseives.
When other houses discharged their work-
men during the winter they were all put to
work in my tactory, nevertheless the big (2)
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
