Farm Notes.
The first essential after milking is to
cool the milk. This should be done
immediately and as quickly as possi-
ble.
Tumble-down or abandoned farms
may be the result of negligent farming
but the real cause of decline may in-
variably be traced to the use of scrub
stock.
The more like school the farm can
be made, the more interest there is de-
veloped in work, study and recreation,
the less thought there will be of leav-
ing the farm.
Make the change from green to dry
food slowly, so that the cow will hard-
ly feel the transition. Sudden and rad-
ical revolutions in diet are always to
be deprecated.
Do not have an army of cockerels
with your hens. If not fat enough to
male good eating, keep by themselves
till fat—then sell or kill them for home
-consumption.
Skim mild should always be given to
.calves warm, and never in a cold con-
dition. When the calf is a month old
linseed meal and ground oats may be
added to the skim milk with advan-
tage.
Old hens that are too fat to lay will
make elegant roasters, and will pay
better disposed of as such, than to keep
for the few eggs they will lay this win-
ter; at least our experience has taught
us thal.
By putting bells upon the sheep
much annoyance from dogs may be
avoided. Have a bell to every fifth or
sixth animal, and when they run there
will be so much noise that the dogs
will think best to retreat.
When turnips are left in the field the
sheep will eat them from the ground,
no harvesting of the turnips being nec-
essary, and so doing the animals also
spread their manure and trample it in-
to the ground, thus enriching the soil.
Many good authorities belie ve that
fall calves can be better raised than
spring ones, the argument being that
calves coming now are kept in the barn
and well fed, thus getting a good start
to make the best of the grazing season
nexc year.
A man who keeps his fence repaired,
his gates swinging on their hinges, his
barn doors hung, his buildings painted,
farm machinery out of the front yard,
brush and boards and straw in proper
places, is likely to find many other de-
sirable conditions attending him.
In England wheat is considered one
of the best graias for stock. It 1t sells
for less than 80 cents per bushel it is
considered cheaper than other grains
of equal cost, but when wheat reaches
90 cents it is considered too valuable
for stock and is used mostly for bread.
A farmer who does not believe in
thoroughbred stock should be consist-
ent, and refuse to accept improved ma-
chinery, tile drainage, the silo, the sep-
arator and creamery, and all the other
things which have aided in making ag-
riculture a better occupafion than it
wae.
Those who have tried it claim that
for family use the best butter is that
which is washed in brine before taken
from the churn and placed on the table
without being worked, the butter being
as near the granular condition as possi-
ble, but such butter cannot well be sent
to market.
A large crop of apples may be grown
when a hive of bees is stationed in the
orchard. The pollen is rubbed from
their bodies against the pistils of thou-
sands of flowers, which thus become
fertilized. Many of the strange feats
of hybridizing varieties are due to the
agency of bees.
Scrub cattle are in all pro bability the
most expensive luxury by far that the
farmers of the United States have to-
day. They cost more. than all the mo-
nopolists combined can ever hope to
wring out of them. Scrub stock is the
leech that sucks away at their prosper-
ity 365 days in the year.
Milk sugar constitutes five pounds
out of every ten solids in the skim-milk.
Just as long as it is sugar will it pro-
mote growth, but when once it-turns to
acid it hinders the deposition of fat es-
pecially. When we wish to reduce the
fat in our bodies we eat acids. Sour
swill is a hindrance rather than help
to growth.
Dry cows do not require very rich
food, and may be made to consume the
coarse provender, such as straw and
corn fodder, but they should receive an
allowance of grain also, While it is
best to have them in good condition
they should not be made fat, as they
may be liable to milk fever at time of
calving.
Do not permit the refuse cibbage
leaves and the goft and unsalable heads
to waste in the field. They are excel-
lent food for all kinds of stock. Feed
them in the stall, if possible, so that all
will be utilized. Tf not, turn thestock
in the field as soon as you have re-
moved the good heads—before the rest
begin to decay.
The economists who in the early
part of this century feared a growth of
pulation which could only be checked
4 war, pestilence and famine, took no
cognizance of agricultural chemistry.
Apparently no limit can be placed to
the product that may be put at the dis.
posal of man, providing he keeps pace
with the methods of science.
Pork barrels should be thoroughly
washed with boiling water and coucen-
trated lye. Add a pound of the lye to
four gallons of water and scrub the
barrel with a brush, using sand also
it preferred and rinse well with plenty
of boiling water until ready for use, and
scrub it again. This work is wecessar
as pork barrels are not easily cleaned.
Overeating, Not Overworking.
A Doctor Who Thinks Our Brains Are Not
Too Heavily Tasked.
Dr. Pye Smith holds that there is no
fear of the ordinary man using his
brains too much for Lealth, and he does
not believe that mental labor or honest
work of any kind interferes with health
or shortens life a day. He maintains
that excessive eating is the abuse that
tends to the injury of brainworkers
more than any other cause.
Many active brain workers have sud-.
denly broken down and fancied that it
was due to brain fatigue, when, as a
matter of fact, it was due to over-stuf-
fing their stomachs. The furnace con-
nection with mental machinery became
clogged up with ashes and carbon in
various shapes and forms, and, as a re-
sult, disease came, and before the case
was fully appreciated a demoralized
condition of the nervous system was
manifested and the prosaic cause for the
collapse was suppressed under theeu-
phemistic “mental overwork.”
Dr. Smith insists that if a man will
take nutritious, digestible food in judi-
cious quantity, lives and works regular-
ly and rests when fatigued, cultivating
at the same time a philosophical habit
and keeping himselt aloof from fret and
annoyances, the chances are that he can
do an almost unlimited amount of work
for an indefinite length of time. He
must, however, bear in mind that when
weariness comes he must rest and not
take stimulants and work upon talse
capital.

Fall of the Leaf.
The bright, green foliage of summer which
is now variegated with golden tints, and leaf
less trees will soon presage the coming of win”
ter's chilly blasts. Nature has been more than
usually lavish in her gifts and abundant erops
make the heart of the husbandman glad. With
the advent of fall it will be well for all to take
proper safeguards against disease. A pure
stimulant tones up the enfeebled system. For
this purpose use Klein's world-famed “Silver
Age” or “Duquesne” rye. Both are warranted
absolutely pure. They sell respectively at
$1.50 and $1.25 per full quart. Sold by S.

CZEMA 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
ELAPSED AND NO RETURN.
A lady customer of ours (Miss Fanny 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
strong enough to cure the Eczema would sure-
ly increase the Rheumatism. She used two
sets of the Cuticura Remedies. The effect was
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 dimin-
ished, and she sees no symptoms of the re-
turn of the r.czema 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 Remedies
for Eczema and all kindred ailments. Your
preparations find ready sale ; indeed, Cuticura
Soap is on the list to buy almost continuously.

Jo[
It is a pretty well settled principal with all ex-
pert tea men that the highest perfection in tea can-
n0t be attained from any one kind or variety of fea
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-
Ser 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
Zo get from us just what you are wanting. We sell
Jone teas at very reasonable prices. Try them.
We have a clean dry sugar 80bs for 3zocts. Tthe
cheapest sugar ever sold in Bellefonte.

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

leather. Our factory now occupies a room

houses of this city and county would smile if
