One of tha best evidences that a
sheep in 1eot well is when it goes off to
some plice as if disposed to be
alone.
If the wheatfield does not seem uni-
form, or the plants are not thrifty,
apply 100 pounds of nitrate of soda per
acre ani a change for the better will
be observed in a few days.
"lo sow peas make a funnel by fold-
ing stiff paper or a piece of pasteboard

To detect the adulteration of paris
green put a teaspoonful iv a glass of
strong ammonia water. The paris

is a very simple method, and enables
anyone to make the test,
The large bell peppers command a
ready fale, as they are largely used by
those vho manufacture pickles. They
are easly grown, but itis not safe to
ut tender plants out in the open air
i ny the middle of May.
Set cut but few early cabbage for a
family supply. The main crop of cab-
bage should be for the winter, and
should not be transplanted until quite
late. Cauliflower should be trans-
Plates at the same time as early cab-
age.
The summer is the time to push the
pigs. They should be kept in growth,
so as to make a large frame upon
which to put the fat late ia the fall
A clover patch, with skim milk and
bran ut night, will be much better for
them than to allow them corn.
Now is the time to turn attention to
trees as a farm product for profit.
Trees need no cultivation and require
but ljstle protection or labor compared
with other crops. The lumber market
is unfailing and the demand is great,
with supply constantly decreasing.
Our raspberries, blackberries, straw-
berries and gooseberries of native stock
are fust superseding foreign varieties.
The best authorities now agree that
American trees are the best for Ameri-
ca. [nevery case the best improved
native varieties of any trees or fruit
surpass the best imported ones.
It is when plants are very young that
weeds and grass do the most damage.
It is the first struggle of young plants
that are easily destroyed by weeds
when young, become hardy and vigor-
ous whan once a start is made. The
time to do the most work in the garden
is when the plants are just coming
thrcugh the ground.
~ Experiments made in Canada show
tha: white wheats yield more than the
reds, and that bald varieties of wheat
yield more than the bearded kinds,
though the latter kinds are a litile
heavier than the bald. These results
have been obtained by testing a large
nwaber of varieties side by side and
under the same conditions.
One advantage of cultivating the
soil lightly is that the top soil becomes
a mulch, or covering, thereby arrest-
ing the escape of moisture and enabling
crops to withstand draught. Cultiva-
tion, therefore, is not for the purpose of
destroying weeds or grass only, but to
re‘ain moisture, which is a very im-
pcrtant matter during a dry spell.
fgg plants are easily grown, and
three or four plants are sufficient for a
suaall family. One drawback to egg
plants 1s the potato beetle, which 1s
more partail to the egg plants than to
potatoes. When the plant are first
pit ont they shold be inspected twice a
duy to pick off the beetles. As soon as
the stems become hard and tough the
potato beetles will cease to disturb them®
ifan acre of ground produces 200
bushels of potatoes per acre, the yield
will be above the average, vet no farm-
ec should be satisfied with less than
300 bushels, as 1t will require no more
labor, though the cost may be increas-
ed for fertilizers. If two dollars can
te gained for one dollar expended in
fertilizers, the farmers will be repaid,
‘while his lard will not lose in fertility.
If therows inthe garden are to be
cultivated with the horse hoe they may
ve one yard apart, but if the hand hoe
or wheel hoe is to be used the rows
nay be as close together as 18 inches
or two feet. The closer the rows the
more space gained, but more hand la-
bor will also be required. If the gar-
den is small it will be better touse a
hand hoe, as well as giving all the
manure possible. A garden cannot be
made too rich if it 1s kept well culti-
vated.
Itis a risk to shear sheep when the
weather 1s cool. Those who assemble
at the annual shearings, early iu spring
to secure records for heavy tleeces, are
compelled to use blankets on the sheep
Chis is t00 expensive for farmers to
practice. It wil lessen the liability of
disease in the flock to lose some of the
wool and postpone shearing unul a
warm, sunny day can be selected, and
even then the sheep should not be ex-
pasid for awhile. One mode of im-
provement is to sell off the poorest and
least remunerative members of the
flock or heard every year, retaming
ouly the best forthe purpose of im-
provement. No improvement can be
wade, however, by selection alone, it

The Finaish Language.
That strange and difficult tongue,
which is supposed to have once embrac-
ed the greater part of north-eastern Eu-
rope, is now practically restricted to a
remote and spars:ly populated province
of the Russian empire and, despite the
factitious support accorded to it in the
past by the Russian government, its
area seems to be steadily if slowly reced-
ing. Nor is this at all surprising when
we come to examine the language itself.
Finnish gramma: is of a difficult abso-
lutely repulsive. None of the other
languages of the same group is half so
hard. Hungarian--nay, even Turkish,
despite the vexatious initial impediment

The syntax is at once provokingly
elaborate and pernlexingly obscure. ft

forms, but on the other hand there is no
real distinction Dhetween nouns adjec-
tives, adverbs, prepositions, infinitives

tives regularly declined like nouns, and

It Opens the Eyes.
“My daughter is losiug her sight,”
said an anxious mother, ‘and juston the
eve of marriage, too? What shall I
do?” “Let her get married, by all
mesans,” responded the doctor; “mar-
riage is a regular-eye-opener,” A man’s
eyes open pretty widely, when he finds
his wife's charms disappearing. Health
is the best friend of beauty, and the in-
numerable ilis to which women are pec-
uliarly subject, its worst enemies. Ex-
perience proves that women who possess
the best health, use Dr. Pierce’s Favo-
rite Prescription. Itis the only medi-
cine for women, sold by druggists, under
a positive guaran’ee from the manufac-
turers, that will give satisfaction in ev-
ery case, or money will be refunded.
This guarantee hes been printed on the
bottle-wrapper and faithfully carried out
for many years.
——Mothers ss well as children will
be interested in the fact that the origi-
nal of ‘‘Little Lord Fauntleroy’ is not
dead, but very much alive. At the
time of Lionel Burnett's death it was
generally veporteil that he was the origi-
nal cedrie of his mother’s beautiful story.
Mrs. Burnett explains that this was not
the case, and that she built the story
around the character of her son Vivian,
now .. rollicking fellow of fourteen. He
is of a strong literary turn, and publish-
es a small paper of kis own, T%e Moon,
to which his mother is the most distin-
guished contributor. The two are live
ing together in ‘Washington, but will
soon go abroad.
“Gentle As The Summer Breeze.’
“I'd rather take a thrashing any time
than a dose of pilis,” groaned a patient
to whom the doctor has prescribed phy-
sic. “J’d as lief ne sick with what ails
me now, as to be sick with the pills.”
“I don’t think you've taken any of
the pilis IT prescribe, or you wouldn’t
dread the prescription so,” laughed the
doctor. *‘I never use the old, inside
twisters you hive in mind. T use
Dr. Pierce's Plumsaut Pellets. They
always make me think ot a part of an
old hymn—
stisdiintrisenniiiissistannis mild and lovely
Gentle as the summer breeze.
The best thing of the kind ever invent-
ed. No danger of their making you
sick. You’ll bardly know you've taken
them. 1 wouldnt useany other in my

Poostasi 20 YEARS
BODY A MASS OF DISEASE. SUFFERING
FEARFUL. ALL THOUGHT HE MUST
DIE. CURED IN SIX WEEKS BY
CUTICURA REMEDIES.
I have been afflicted for twenty years with
an obstinate skin disease, called by some M.
D.s Psoriasis. and others Leprosy, commenc-
ing on my scalp; and, in spite of all I could
do, with the help of the most skilful doctors, it
slowly but surely extended, until a year ago
this winter it covered my entire person in the
form of dry scales. For the last three years I
have been unable to do any labor, and “suffer-
ing intensely all the time. Every mornin
there could be nearly a dustpanful i.
scales taken from the sheet on my ed, some
of them half as large as the envelope contain-
ing this letter. In the latter part of the winter
my skin commenced cracking open. I tried
everything, almost, that could be thought of,
without any relief. The 12th of June I started
West, in hopes I could reach the Hot Springs.
I reached Detroit, and was so low I thought I
should have to go to the hospital, but finally
got as far as Lansing, ;Mich., where I had a
sister living. One Dr.—— treated me about
two weeks, but did me no good. All thought
I had but a short time to live. I earnestly
prayed todie. Cracked through the skin ail
over my back, across my ribs, arms, hands,
limbs; feet badly swolled’; toe-nails came off ;
finger-nails dead, and hard as a bone ; hair
dead, dry and lifeless as old straw. O my God !
how I did suffer. My sister. Mrs. E. H.
Davis, had a small part of a box of Cuticura in
the house. She wouldn’tgive up; said, “We
will try Cuticura.” Some was applied on one
hand and arm. Eureka! there was relief ;
stopped the terrible burning sensation from
the word go. They immediately got the Cuti-
cura, Cuticura Resolvent and Soap. 1 com-
menced by taking one tablespoonful of Resol-
vent three times a day, after meals; had a bath
once a day, water about blood heat; used Cuti-
cura Soap freely ; applied Cuticura morning
and evening. Result; returned to my home
18 just six weeks from the time I left, and my
skin as smooth as this sheet of paper.

A) CHOFIELDS NEW
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 execlu-
| 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 be
nicely displayed and still kept away from
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
Jon will buy. Our profits are not large, but
y 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 themselves.

men during the winter they were all put to
work in my factory, nevertheless the bi a
houses of this city and county would smile
we compared ourselves to them, but we do not
