Farm Notes.
Fatten your turkeys before Thanks-
giving, so as to secure higher prices.
There is only about four weeks to that
time.
The strawberry plants delight in
moisture during the spring, but they
are easily injured in winter if the soil is
damp or wet.
Burning over a field of dry grass and
weeds cleans the surface, destroys
some of the seeds, and lessens the har-
boring places of insects.
It 18 better to haul the manure to the
fields then to expose 1t to rains and
melting snows during the winter when
heaped in the barnyard:
It will pay to drain if only a simple
drain tile or a ditch is used to carry off
water from damp ground, but it will
pay better to drain properly.
It is admitted that slop-fed cows will
produce rich milk, compared with that
from other foods, but such milk fer
ments easily and is more liable to give
off foul odors.
{tis cheaper to make a good road
than a bad one. The money expended
on the wear and tear of your wagons,
of your horses and harness is enough
to make a good road.
Professor W. A. Henry found by ex-
periment that it cost $2.61 to produce a
hundred pounds of gain with lambs,
$3.03 to secure the same gain with pigs
of about the same age.
Ducks will enjoy themselves on a
pond, but they quickly succumb if
compelled to sleep in a damp location .
Make a board floor to your duck house
and keep it covered with hay or
straw.
Pure bred live stock is a leading ed-
ucator. The man who once : begins
breeding becomes a student of animal
life. The result is a humane and intel-
ligent man with a prosperons and prog-
ressive family.
Although clover is rich in nitrogen,
yet it takes but little nitrogen from the
soil, returning more than it receives. It
is very partial to lime aud potash.
Sulphate of lime (land plaster) is a
special fertilizer for clover or some
soils.
The rations for the cows at the Chi-
cago Fair will be according to a selec-
ted formula. without regard to the size
of the animalor to the work it will
perform. The ration will be a heavy
one for some cows and a light one for
others.
It requires a large amount of water
when sprinkling plants during a dry
season. Three gallons of water will
not more than soak a spacetwo feet
square to the depth of two inches ;
hence to attempt to water a large
area by sprinkling is almost an impos-
sibility.
There is one advantage in keeping a
pig or two, even if one is not disposed
to produce pork for the market, and
that isin securing quality. If you
produce your own pork and lard and
you will then know from what the
pork is produced and that the lard is
not adulterated,
If farmers after plowing their land
in the fall would apply about 10 bush-
els of lime per acre they would find the
land much benefitted thereby. Iv is
only necessary to apply the lime on
the surface, as the rains and snows will
carry it down soon enough. On light,
sandy soils lime may be applied both
in the fall and in the spring.
The strainer only takes the solid
filth from the milk. No straicer can
separate odors or soluble matter from
milk. A switch of a cow’s tail may
contaminate a whole pail of milk, and
the solid and liquid manures of the
stalls may easily be mingled with the
milk. Cleanliness begins at the stall,
for it is there that the greatest danger
to milk is found.
What has lime to do with nitrogen
in the soil? It may be stated that the
nitrification of the soil is more or less
due to the busy microbes existing there-
in, and they work best in the presence
of lime. By applying lime, therefore,
the farmer noi only adds a required
mineral substarce to the soil but also
increases the proportion of ready-pre-
pared nitrogen as plant fcod.
England does not grow wheat to any
extent, as her farmers find it more pro-
fitable to eell milk, butter, and choice
meats as well as fruits and vegetables,
the tarmers paying high rents for the
use of the farms. It will pay tarmers
in this country to do the same. Small
areas that are highly fertilized, and
well cultivated, are alwa:s profitable
¢ iwpared with large farms.
Wool may not pay on farms that
are closely cultivated, but sheep will
pay. The sheep does not depend on
its fleece only to give a profit. When
a farmer keeps sheep he produces wool,
mutton and lamb. There are many
farms upon which sheep give a large
proiit and yet but little is made on
wool.” The fine wool breeds are not
the best mutton sheep, and in England
the merino is almost unknown on the
farms, as English farmers make a spe
cialty of choice mutton.
A new fodder plant, called lathyrus
aylvestris, is now being grown on the
groundsof several ofthe experiment
stations, and if it proves to be all that
is claimed for it, the plant will be a
valuable addition to the list of folder
plants. Ttie eaid to contain a bigh
per cent. of albumenoils, and is a
variety of wild pea. It produces
twenty or more crops, and stands both
drought and severe cold, growing on
dry, sandy soils, and has a deep root.
It contains more fat, protein and carbo-
hydrates than clover.
Silk Was Prohibited.
The Roman Empercr Tiberius prohit-
ed men from wearing silk. It was
deemed only fit for women.
Early Invention Harness.
The chariot driver of the ancient
Egyptians invented harness tor horses
prior to the year 1703 B. C.

STUBBORN CASE OF SKIN DISEASE COV-
ERED HER FACE AND BODY. MANY
DOCTORS BAFFLED.
MARVELLOUS AND COMPLETE CURE
BY CUTICURA. SIX YEARS HAVE
ELAPSED AND NO RETURN.
A lady customer of ours (Miss Fanny At-
wood of Caroline Depot, N. Y.) has been cured
of a stubborn cass of skin disease by the use
of Cuticura Remedies. She remarked that her
case had baffled the skill of many well-known
hysicians. They unanimously ‘pronounced
it llezema, with Rheumatism lurking in the
blood. Some predicted that any treatment
strong enough to cure the Eczema would sure-
ly increase the Rheumatism. She used two
gets of the Cuticura Remedies. The effect was
was marvellous, Her case of Eczema was not
only completely eured, but her Rheumatism
was greatly relieved during the treatment.
Six years have elapsed since the cure was per
formed, her Rhedmatism has since never in
creased by the treatment, but rather dimin-
ished, and she sees no symptoms of the re-
turn of the kezema which once so completely
took possesion of her face and body. Miss At
wood delights in telling of the good effects
that the Cuticura treatment had upon her, and
recommends unsolicited the Cuticura Remedics
for Eczema and all kindred ailments. Your
preparations find ready sale ; indeed, Cuticura
Soap is on the list to bay almost continuously,

———==BILENDED TEAS:
Jof
1t is a pretty well settled principal with all ex-
pert tea men that the highest perfection in tea can-
not be attained from any one kind or variety of tea
Plant. But that the best value and choicest flavor
can be obtained only by a skillful blending of care-
Jully selected high grade goods of different varieties.
When teas are perfectly blended the original flav-
or of each variety disappears in the blend, and from
the combination we get something entirely new and
much finer than any of the original flavors.
We have a new blend of our own. In the prepa-
ration of which we have spent considerable time and
labor and have also had the aid and counsel of sev-
eral as good tea men as are to be found in the Unit-
ed States. It is with entire confidence that we} of-
Jer the goods for sale and unhesitatingly claim them
20 be very superior both in value and flavor.
If you want a cup of ROYAL TEA, try our
new blended goods. :
We also carry a full line of Teas, Oolongs, Ja-
pan, Young Hyson, Imperials, Gunpowder, Eng-
lish Breakfast, also several grades of blended goods,
and can suit the trade on anything in the tea line.
You may not be exactly suited on the goods you are
using, and we feel confident that you will be able
lo get from us just what you are wanting. We sell
Jine teas at very reasonable prices. Try them.
We have a clean dry sugar 80bs for zocts. the
cheapest sugar ever sold in Bellefonte.

SJ CHOFIELDS NEW
: HARNESS HOUS
We extend a most cordial invitation tc 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 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
Jeu 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 interested in now. fits
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 a
houses of this city and county would smile
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.
The following are kept constantly on hand.
50 SETS OF LIGHT HARNESS, Ti, from
$8.00 to $15.00 and upwards, LARGE
STOCK OF HEAVY HARNESS per
8e6825.00 and upwards, 500 HORSE
COLLARS from $1,50 to $5,00
each, over $100.00 worth of
HARNESS OILS and

$400 worth of Fly Nets sold’ cheap
8150 worth of whips
from 15¢ to $3.00 each,

Sponges, Chamois, RIDING
SADDLES, LADY SIDESADDLES
Harness Soap, Knee Dusters, at low
prices, Saddlery-hardware always on hand
for sale, Harness Leather as low as 25¢ per
pound. We keep everythingto be found in a
FIRST CLASS HARNESS STORE—no chang-
ing, over 20 years in the same room. No two
shopsin the same town to catch trade—NO
SELLING OUT for the want of trade or prices.
Four harness-makers at steady work this win.

when other houses discharged their hands,
they soon found work with us.
