Farm Notes.
If the asparagus bed has not been
burnt over it should be done as soon as
the weather will permit, and the bed
should be covered thickly with man-
ure.
The cow is a producer. The feeding
of the animals is not only for the pur-
pose of Ssustaining| life, but to derive
something from them in return for
that which is given.
Where crude petroleum can be
ready obtained, a dime’s worth proper-
ly applied may be worth dollars to
wooden tools and lumber wagons by
preventing cracking and decay.
A few quarts of oil will keep the tools
in order until spring. No implements
or tools should ever be allowed to ac-
cumulate rust. Bright tools lessen the
labor and they will last much longer.
The use of salt, to melt snow, is
sometimes practiced in barnyards. Tt
causes the snow to melt, but greatly in-
creases the cold in the barnyard, as
well as causing injury to the feet of
the animals.
It is difficult to estimate the annual
loss to the farmers of this country by
the depredations of insects. In Ne-
braska the loss from the ravages of the
coddling moth alone is estimated to be
as much as $2,000,000.
One of the best foods for laying hens
is to cook a piece of lean meat or liver
and thicken the broth with middlinge,
first chopping the meat. Feed the mess
warm early in the morningand feed
whole grain at night.
Good sheep raisers claim that after
dry feeding commences it requires the
very best management to made any
decided improvement in the conditions;
hence the importance of having the
animals go into winter quarters in a
good cohdition.
A meeting of beet growers was held
in France recently to discuss the dif-
ference in ‘cost between raising beets by
machinery, and by hand, also their
price when grown in different soile.
An insect resembling the common fly
has been attacking the leaves of the
beet.
It may not be pleasant work to use a
grindstone and sharpen the tools, but
nothing will lessen the work on a farm
as much as a grindstone if itis used
frequently. Sharp tools make work a
pleasure instead of a burden, and save
time, save animals, and reduce the cost
in many respects.
Never give a milker more than 15
cows to care for ; that isto milk and
clean. From 15 cows there will gen-
erally be a couple dry, and two or three
not giving very much milk this mak-
ing it possible for one milker to care
for 15. Otherwise 12 cows in full milk
are enough for one milker.
When the old wood is removed from
trees or vines the best course to pursue
is to burn all the refuse. The cuttings
of blackberries nearly always contain
the eggs of the borer, and to allow them
to remain on the ground is to propagate
the nuisance, especially when young
canes are also being thinned out.
It is easier to sell 30-cent buiter for
35 cents than to sell 20 cent butter for
10 cents a pound, and the buyers are
better satisfied. Frozen cream makes
a cheap grade of butter, and but little
of that, yet many farmers neglect to
provide a dairyroom that can be kept
warm in winter and cool in summer.
The plot selected for a garden can be
manured now as well as at any other
time. Cover the entire surface with
fine manure (not litter), and let it re-
main for the frost to pulverize and the
rains to dissolve. If the plot was
plowed last fall the effect of the man-
ure will be more marked when the
crops are seeded down.
Hog cholera may result from the use
of corn when it is fed exclusively.
Sometimes the disease known as chol-
era may be the result of overfeeding
with concentrated food, first resulting in
constipation of the bow .s and then di-
arrhoea, and not be cholera at all. The
remedy is to feed a variety and not to
restrict the animals to grain alone.
A peach grower, whose trees attacked
by the “yellows,” and who had lost
quite a number by the disease, ctates
that he cured the trees by the use of
scraps of iron placed in the soil around
them, his theory being that the trees
were deficient in iron. After practic.
ing the iron treatment he states that
the trees grew vigorously, and bore
fruit for years.
There is danger of the frost throwing
the strawberry plants out of the ground
if mulch is not used. Or sandy soil
this liability from the frost is not so
great, but on heavy soils the plants
should be carefully attended to. = Roll-
ing the strawberry bed, after the frost
comes out of the ground, will serve to
press the roots back into the soil, but
a mulch is better to prevent sudden
thawing after the ground is frozen.
There are 613 varieties of plants of
economic value in Australia, of which
21 are classified as human food and
adjuncts, 158 grasses, 92 other forage
plants than grasses, 123 drugs, 40 gums
21 resins, 39 kinos, 47 volatile or es-
sential oils, 10 expressed or fixed oils,
14 perfumes, 35 dyes, 87 tans, 630 tim-
bers, 67 fibers and 38 miscellaneous
and unclassified.
ivis reported that a fruit grower in
Centreville, Cal ,has a tree bearing 4000
nice oranges which is ab unusually good
Yield, although a single tree in Florda
as been known to bear 10,000 oranges
in a season, and fallen trees have been
reported with a yield of 60,000 in one
crop. The average yield in California
or Florida is said to be below 500
oranges toa tree but their orchards
are yet young compared to those of
Italy.
The Conducting of Pleasure Tours.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com-
pany, through its personally-conduct-
ed tourist system, has gained an envi-
able reputation in the conducting of its
pleasure tours, inasmuch as they send
out with each individual tour an ex-
perienced tourist agent and chaperon
whose sole duty is to cater to all wants
and pleasure of all in their charge-
All destinations of the tours are select.
ed with the view of giving to the tour-
ists the most delightful territory for re-
creation, pleasure, and sight-seeing.
The rates quoted for each tour are in
accordance with that liberality for
which this enterprising company is
noted. There will be a series of five
tours to Washington, D.C., during
the winter and spring of 1893, dates
fer which have been fixed as follows :
January 19th, February 9th, March
23d, April 13th, May 4th and 25th.
In addition to the above-mentioned
tours the company has arranged a
geries of five to the famous winter re-
sort, Florida, leaving New York Phila-
delphia January 3lst, February 14th
and 28th, March 14th and 28th, 1893.
The first four tours allow a stay of two
whole weeks in the Flowery State.
The rate quoted from Philadelphia
$48, covers transportation, Pullman
berth, and meals en route on special
train in both directions for first four
tours, while tickets for the fifth tour
are good to return by regular trains
until May 30th 1893, but do not cover
Pullman charges or meals north-
bound.
For those desiring a prolonged tour
of pleasure and sight-seeing no better
trip is afforded than one of the Pacific
Coast tours arranged by this company,
three of which will be run from New
York and Philadelphia during the
year 1893, departing on the foliowing
dates : February 8:h, March 2d, and
March 29th. The rate will cover
transportation in a palace vestibuled
train in both directions, meals en route
carriage drives, and side trips to prom-
inent points of interest in California.
For information regarding any of the
tours, or for detailed itineraries, appli-
cation should be made to the Tourist
Department, Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, 233 South Fourth Street,
Philadelphia.

The Use and Abuse of Whiskey.
This subject could be dwelt upon to a con-
siderable length, and yet much would remain
untold, but all agree that the use, the proper
use of pure rye whiskey is an absolute neces”
sity, especially so now, when nature insists
upon being stimulated. All regular physi-
cians prescribe rye whiskey, and justly claim
that Klein's Silver Age and Duguesne Whisk
ies are most reliable. They do this not only
because they have tried them but because the
leading hospitals use them—find them the
best stimulants in theworld. Silver Age sells
for $1.50 and Duquesne for $1.25 per full quart

be made in the large room, formerly occupied
by Harper Bros., on Spring street. It has

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 bs
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
