Bellefonte, Pa., Sept. 23, 1892,
Farm Notes.
The best milk preservative known is
cleanliness and the next best is cold-
ness.
Usually milk with less that 2. per
cent. of fat has been either watered or
skimmed.
This is one of the months for bubs,
and every season brings something new
among the varieties.
The Hubbard squash will keep well
during the winter if kept in a dry place
and covered with straw, to prevent
freezing.
Dried fruit may be kept in a clean
condition and safe from the attacks of
flies if put in stout paper bags, and
then securely fastening the bags.
The cellar should be thoroughly
cleaned, fumigated and whitewashed
before being used as a storehouse, both
as a protection to the articles and to
avoid disease,
The dwarf nasturtium is beautiful,
both in leaf and flower. When a bed
of nasturtiums are grown with a large
canna in the centre, the combination is
very attractive.
Manure that has been evenly spread
over the soil not only prevents loss of
moisture and retains that in the soil,
but causes the moisture lower down to
rise to the surface also.
There should be a sale for all such
things as home-made jellies, canned
fruit, etc., as the articles produced on
the farm would be better prepared than
those put up at some factories.
Plants are often killed when the
temperature is not as low as the freez-
ing point. The explanation is that
plants sometimes have a temperature
15 degrees below that of the surround:
ing atmosphere.
The Russian mulberry is said to be
one of the best ot hedge plants. It will
not turn stock, but it is capable of en-
during all changes of climate, and is
very ornamental when neatly trimmed.
It also grows very rapidly.
Grape rot was not very troublesome
in some sections this year, even where
it has before destroyed previous crops,
and vines that were unsprayed gave as
good results as those that had been
spraped. The result is one that has
puzzled the grape growers.
Dahlia roots are easily kept over
winter. Any place that is suitable for
potatoes may be used for the storage
of dahlia roots. Too much dampness,
however, will injure them. Canna
roots may be stored in the same place.
Mutton breeds of sheep do not de-
pend on waste lands and hillsides to
become profitable. Good sheep re-
quire good pastures, and pay well.
Wool is simply a product of the sheep,
and no farmer can make sheep pay
who depends on wool only for his
profit,
Of the bush lima beans, this season
the Henderson gave early and continu.
ous pickings. Some growers, who ex-
perimented with the large bush limas,
pronounce them a failure, as they pro-
duced pods too late in the season, and
do not appear to thrive as well as when
running on poles.
Plow up the location for next year’s
garden before winter, and broadcast
manure over the surface. Too much
manure need not be feared. Harrow
the ground after manuring, and apply
a bag of finely ground bone. By the
time spring work begins the ground
will be in excellent condition for crops.
It is doubtful if any two cheeses are
alike in quality, as it is impossible to
secure milk of uniform quality, especi-
ally for a length of time. It is certain,
however, that when cheese is made of
full milk it will bring a good price.
The greatest injury to cheese making
18 the inferior articles on the market,
which cause a distrust of all kinds.
The first runners that appear on
strawberry plants are the best. This
has been demonstrated by several
growers of strawberries. Last season
Mr. H. M. Phillips, who grows straw-
berries largely in New Jersey, made
the same claim, and now a Connecti-
cut grower states that he saves the
first two runnersiand rejects all others.
During the day the plants absorb a
certain amount of heat and radiate it
during the night, thus becoming cold-
er than the air that touches them. At
the same time there is always a certain
amount of invisible yapor floating in
the air, and when the air and plants
are above the freezing point this vapor
becomes dew ; but early in the morn-
ing, when the temperature is about 40
degrees and the leayes at 30 degrees,
the coolness of the leaves changes the
dew to frost.
Whether ensilage and dry corn fod-
der contain the same nutrition or not
is of but little consequence. There is
no denying the fact that well cured dry
fodder is equal to ensilage as food. En-
silage, however, has an advantage pe-
culiarly its own, which is, that it sup-
plies succulent food for stock at a sea-
son of the year when only dry food can
be obtained without its use or the aid
of roots. Ensilage isalso cheaper than
roots, and is more easily stored for im-
mediate use.
Filth in milk is imperceptible, and
cannot always be removed with the
strainer. Soluble filth cannot be re-
moved by any process. Ata Western
creamery, after 6000 quarts of milk
had been separated by the gepaTt,
the bowl was removed for cleaning,
when the walls of the bowl were found
covered with solid black mud to the
thickness of an inch ; yet the milk was
apparently clean when passed through
theseparator. Too much care cannot
be exercised to avoid uncleanliness.
Horses Should Wear Light Shoes.
Horses are commonly made to carry
heavy shoes, declares Edwin C. Powell.
The shoe is designed merely to protect
the hoof, and the lighter it can be made
and-etill serve its purpose the better for
the horse. Horses that are devoted to
farm work, and on land where there are
few or no stones may dispense with
shoes, except while the ground is frozen.
This would be of great advantage to the
horse, to say nothing of the saving in
the horseshoer’s bill. But most borses
require shoeing and the shoes worn are
generally iron ones. Steel shoes can be
made lighter, wear longer and the first
cost is not so much more that it need
prevent their being used. Light
horses and driving horses should always
wear them. :
For horses of 1100 pound weight and
well-shaped upright feet, the fore shoes
should weigh about one pound each and
the hind ones twelve ounces. If four
ounces are added to each shoe, let us see
what a difference it will make. In
plowing, cultivating, mowing, reaping
and many other farm operations a horse
will walk from ten to twenty miles a
day and advance about four feet at a
step. At each step the horse lifts a half
pound extra on its two feet, or 660
pounds in every mile. In a day’s work
of fifteen miles the horse would lift 9900
pounds extra, or nearly five tons. If
the force required to lift this five tons of
iron could be expended in the work the
horse is doing much more could be ac-
complished. In the light of these facts,
is it any wonder that when young horses
begin to wear shoes they soon grow
weary, have their step shortened and ac-
quire a slower walking gait ?
“Learn” and “Teach.”
The difference between the use of the
words learn and teach is often insisted
upon, and yet, strangely enough, it is
often disregarded even by persons who
should know how to speak correctly.
The following conversation, which ac-
tually took place in one of the leading
clubs of Boston, illustrates the way in
which the error is committed :
One member said to another, who
was his friend, and whom he had met
driving during the day:
“Why in the world didn’t you lift
your hat to me to-day when I was with
Miss Blank ?”
“Oh,” the other returned easily, I
just didn’t want to, You can’t learn
me manners.”
“No.” was the quiet response, “but I
could teach you English if you would
give me half a chance.— Youth's Qom-
panion.
He Didn't See It.
From the Detroit Free Press.
Thelady was trying to persuade a
very homely old bachelor that he ought
to marry.
*“Why,” she said, “don’t you know
that it improves a man’s personal ap-
pearance more than fifty per cent, to
marry a pretty woman ?”’
“No, I don’t,” he replied aggressive-
ly
“Well, it does, just the same,” she
persisted.
“How ?”
“Simply enough ; his better half is
handsome. See?”
But be wouldn’t.
His Feelings Were Wounded.
From the Chicago Tribune. %
“Do you love me very much, pet?”
“Yes, indeed. papa; but you're be-
ginning to need shaving just awfully!”
Putting the darling child gently off
his lap, the strong man went out on the
back porch, leaned against a pillar,
looked despairingly out into the dark-
ness and wept bitter, scalding tears.
He had spent six of the hardest weeks
of his life cultivating that first crop of
whiskers,

I have used the Cuticura Remedies, and

They have given me a perfect cure. I have
been troubled with pruritus for over fifteen
years, and have been under the doctor's treat-
ment four different times, with no relief what-
ever, until I tried the Cuticura Remedies. After
using them fost one week, I found that life
was not such a burden afterall, and am satis-
fied that I shall never be troubled again. Such
faith I have in your remedies. You can send
any one that is troubled with pruritus, and I
will satisfy them what it has done for me. I
will not restrict you from publishing this com-

dies are so good that it would be rather selfish
in me not to speak of their good qualities.

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

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.

the future than we have done in the past and
