Farm Notes.
The fruit crop is short beyond all
doubt.
Apples are 25 per cent. of a full crop
in Ohio,
A compact clay is better fitted for
grass than tillage.
The turnip crop will give good re-
turns for liberal manuring.
A good veal is worth more in market
than some yearlings.
The only kind of fruit which appears
not to flourish in California is the ap-
ple.
The gasoline stove in the kitchen in
hot weather saves some unnecessary
heating of the house.
Hedges may be evened some with
the shears now. Do not cut back too
severely before winter.
Our 2, 000,000,000 bushel corn crop
of last year will be followed by one re-
duced by several million bushels.
A pure blood may be a scrub. A
pedigree scrub is the worst kind. Fix-
ed vices are just as bad as fixed virtues
are good.
Roll the wheat ground as fast as you
plow. We may bave a drouth, and
fail to get a good seed bed unless it is
made now.
The New York State Agricultural
Society proposes to have ‘breeders’
races, but positively no gambling or
pool-selling’” at its fair.
If you raise poultry for market why
not caponize the young roosters?
They will grow one-third larger, and
are wanted by consumers.

Wherever the conditions are favor-
able for the rotting of silage, it is
quite possible for the silo lining to rot
also if the lining be of wood.
Keep the new canes of raspberries
and blackberries cut back if they have
made heavy growth, which will induce
them to throw out laterals, become
stocky, and produce better fruit next
season.
Certain cattle foods are more valua-
ble, pound for pound, than others, be-
cause of 1. The relative proportion
ot dry substance contained. 2. The
digestibility of that dry substance, and
its constitution.
Salt is recommended as an excellent
fertilzer around the trunks of quince
trees. The salt promotes the growth
of the trees, increases the size and qual-
ity of the fruit, and also destroys worms
or maggots in the soil.
The best place for a coop containing
a hen with a brood of chicks is on the
asparagus patch. The chicks diligent-
ly search the stalks and destroy the as-
paragus beetle which damages the
plants in some locations.
It has been long recognized that the
yield of milk is materially affected by
the nervous condition of the animal,
but only within the last few years has
it been demonstrated that the quality
of the milk is more affected by nervous
changes than the quantity given.
Mature animals are best for breed-
ing purposes. Many herds or flocks
have deteriorated because of the animal
selection of young and immature ani-
mals for breeding. An animal that is
not fully matured is lacking in vigor,
and its offspring will inherit many of
its defects.
Crab grass makes excellent pasture
when it is young, but it should not be
allowed to take possession. of the soil if
some better grass can be secured. Crab
grass, should it once cover the ground,
will appear every summer thereafter
thus entailing an enormous amount of
labor to prevent it from crowding out
the more valuable crops.
Land that has not been favorable to
certain crops that are subject to dis-
ease, such as potatoes, should be plowed
and forty bushels of air-slaked lime ap-
plied per acre. The lime will asgist in
destroying the spores of fungi, and thus
aid in preventing rot. Whether bene-
ficial in arresting disease or nct the
lime will be found useful as a fertilizer,
and as a means of decomposing inert
matter in the sol.
The roots of large fruit trees form a
network over quite a space around
each tree, and to attempt to grow crops
near the trees will result in small yields
of the grain or vegetable grown. Even
when rows are filled with manure the
roots of the trees will appropriate it.
This fact is evidence that fruit trees
should receive manure or fertilizer in
order to yield large crops of perfect
fruit.
HAND POWER CREAM BEPARATOR.
The chief advantage offered by the
cream separator, according to the Del-
aware station, is greater economy in
saving the butter-fat otherwise lost in
the ekim milk. Certain minor advan-
tages are that the use of ice can be
wholly dispensed with or much lessen-
ed ; that the skim milk can be fed
sweet and at nearly the natural tem-
perature; that less room and fewer
milk vessels are required with less
labor in the care of them. The saving
of butter-fat affected by the machine
method over the cold setting method
is often coneiderable, in fact a margin
of profit so wide as to make or break
many manufacturing businesses. Skim
milk by the cold setting process some-
times contains as little as 2-10 of 1 per
cent. of fat, but very rarely and only by
way of exception ; it often contains 4-
10 or 6-10, sometimes even 1 per cent
more. Probably one-half of one per
eent is a fair average allowance, none
too high for the cold setting process.
But in view of the labor of operaticg
hand-power seprrators, their use is not
to be recommended.
Destined to Revolutionize the World.
A Wonderful Medicine.—By Some Belicved to be
an Answer to Prayer, By Others as Being
Worth One Thousands Dollars In Gold.
An eminent M. D, in Delaware,
writes : “I have administered part ofa
box of your Golden Specific to one of
the worst drunkards in this country, and
he has stopped drinking. His wife tells
me that his whole system is changing
for the better ; he is getting his natural
look and appetite for food. Specific is
destined to revolutionize the world, for
there is no better way to shut up the-
bar-rooms than to cure all of the hang-
ers-on. I intend to devote the rest of
my life to curing drunkard with your
Specific.” :
This is but one of thousards of testi-
monials from responsible people every-
where over the country, touching the
genuine merits of a positive remedy for
the cure, as well as the prevention of the
liquor habit. Itis believed by many
persons to be the only positive and per-
manent cure in all the world for drunk-
enness. Physicians recognize iis merits
and freely recommend the cure some-
thing which is not being done for a so-
called cure, which instead of curing the
drunkard, is liable to send him to the
mad-house, penniless. By using this
remedy positively no evil effects will
result. It invigorates the system, and
completely destroys all desire for strong
drink. It is purely a home treatment ;
“and its cost, compared with daily ex-
penditures for liquor, is insignificant;
its benefits cannot be counted.” It
makes no difference whether the patient
be a moderate drinker or an alcoholic
wreck, a speedy cure is guaranteed. Not
one known failure among the many
thousands of cases treated the past fif-
teen years. It can be given without
the patient’s knowledge or inconven-
ience, the simple way being to adminis-
ter it in tea, coffee, or food of the pa-
tient. A 48-page pamphlet on “Drunk-
enress Curable,” will be sent free on ap-
plication to Golden Specific Co., Cincin-
nati, Ohio.
Heads Are Bigger Now.
Craniums of All Nations’ Though Different, are
Enlarging Together.
It is interesting to observe how the
shape of a man’s head acts asan index
to his nationality—that is, if you know
how to consult the index. Asa proof
of this, notice how long and narrow the
average American head is. Hats made
in England will not fit such a head at
all, the head being so long ‘fore and aft’
as to make the hat too wide at the sides.
With the German it is the reverse, if any
difference. The head of a true Rhines
lander is wide at the temples; if the hat
is the exact length, in nine cases out of
ten it has to be stretched sideways in
order to make it fit. English heads are
wide, but not so pronounced as those of
the Germans. There is more of a “sli-
ding scale” with them as to the relative
length and breadth. The Celtic head
is almost invariably round or oval, and
without pronounced phrenological
“pumps.” For general smoothness of the
cranial protuberance, the Italian comes
next to the Celts, either of the two bee-
ing the classic Greeks in that respect.
Odd as it may seem, anatomists declure
that the Turkish skull is almost identical
in shape size, etc., with that of the en-
lightened nineteenth century inhabitant
of the United States. Hat dealers, such
as makers, furnishers. etc., say that the
head of all nations are gradually grow-
ing larger. In 1860 the average hat
used was 67; to-day it is 7}.
——Rev. E. A. Buck, the minister
who has been such a true friend of Miss
Lizzie A. Borden in her hour of sorrow,
ought to sue the papers which have
printed his alleged portrait for criminal
libel. He isa pleasant faced, cheerful
and vivacious old gentleman whose
whole life has been a labor of love for
charitable and kindly pruposes, and
though he is only assistant pastor of a
fashionable congregation, all the mis-
sion work of the parish falls upon his
shoulders, and he does vastly more cleri-
cal and charity work than any other
minister in the town. Unfortunately
for him he comes within the ranks of
those hard-working pastors whom Gold-
smith depicted in the country parson
who was ‘passing rich on forty pounds
a year.”

of presidents’’—to five.

Joixus ON A LADY
STUBBORN CASE OF SKIN DISEASE COV-
ERED HER FACE AND BODY. MANY
DOCTORS BAFFLED.
MARVELLOUS AND COMPLETE CURE BY
CUTICURA SIX YEARS HAVE EL-
APSED AND NO RETURN.
A lady customer of ours (Miss Fannie At-
wood of Caroline Depot, N. Y.) has been cured
of a stubborn case of skin disease by the use
of Cuticura Remedies. She remarked that her
case had baffled the skill of many well-known
physicians. They unanimously pronounced
it Eczema, with Rheumatism lurking in the
blood. Some predicted that any treatment
and strong enough to cure the Etzema would
surely increase the Rheumatism. She used
two sets of the Cuticura Remedies. The effect
was marvellous. Her case of Eczema was not
only completely cured, but her Rheumatism
was greatly relieved during the treatment.
Six years have elapsed since the cure was per-
formed, her Rheumatism has since never in-
creased by the treatment, but rather diminish-
ed, and she sees no symptoms of the return of
the Eczema which once so completely took
possession of her face and body. Miss Atwood
delights in telling of the good effects that the
Cuticura treatment had upon her, and recom-
mends unsolici-ed the Cuticura Remedies, for
Eczema and all kindred ailments. Your pre-
parations find ready sale; indeed Cuticura
Soap is on the list to buy almost continuously.

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 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.
Weare 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. Our profits are not large, but

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 interested in now. ofits
