Farm Notes.
No pests are more destructive in ths
winter season than the rats. Look af-
ter their harboring places.
The United States Department of Ag-
riculture seems to have answered clear-
ly, and in the negative, the question
whether bees injure fruit, and especial-
ly grapes.
Four important factors enter into
successful fruit production, namely,
manure, pruning and spraying the trees
with insecticides and thinning the fruit
where necessary.
The compound given below is said to
be good for trees and to prevent dam-
age by rabbits, viz: Two pounds soap
dissolved in three gallons hot water
and two ounces carbolic acid.
Sub-irrigation in growing greenhouse
lettuce is a step forward. By this
means the crop may be nearly doubled.
Proof of the gain may be found in the
lettuce beds of the Ohio University for-
cing houses.
A stable should be light, and this
means use of plenty of glass and white-
wash. Some stables are so dreary and
gloomy that the animals will prefer the
cold outside to the discomfort within,
if they have their choice.
Frozen corn fodder is not suitable
food in winter. Such material should
only be used for cutting up and throw-
ing on the manure heap, or withheld
from the animals until they can com-
fortably pick it over.
Trials which have been made by
spreading manure on snow for the com-
ing corn crop have resulted in fine
crops and the best success. Equally
favorable are the results trom the win-
ter top dressing of meadows.
For horse feed nothing can be better
than silage. It keeps their bowels in
the best possible order, makes costs
sleek and glossy and makes them feel
like colts. Especially is this true of
breeding mares and growing stock.
Some peach growers have dug
around their trees, leaving the trunks
exposed. This is done to expose the
borer in some instances, and’ also to
avoid too early flow of the sap. Wheth-
er the plan is a safe one to follow de-
pends upon the kind of weather yet to
come.
This is the kind of weather that
spoils the seed corn that is not dry or
in a dry place. All seeds need looking
over now. Mice, insects and damp-
ness will do much damage to seeds du-
ring the interval between harvesting
and planting, and a portion of the loss
may be avoided by an examination.
In regard to keeping sheep in large
numbers and the injury done by dogs,
it would perhaps pay to have a night
watchman to guard the sheep at night.
Sheep cannot be confined at night, to
protect them from dogs, as they graze
mostly after sundown, while the air is
cool. In Europe the flocks are always
guarded.
Overfeeding is as great an error in
management as underfeeding. During
the winter season there is a greater de-
gree of carelessness than in the sum-
mer, as the food taken from the pas-
ture is less concentrated. It is usual
to allow a certain quantity of food as a
ration for an animal, and this quanti-
ty is fed to all alike. No surer meth-
od of wasting food could bo adopted,
asthe wants of animals differ greatly,
and the allowance for one may be in-
sufficient ior another-
FAT I8 NOT DESIRABLE.
It is correct and proper to have an
animal fat when the object is to fatten
it for the market, and in that case it
may be fed all that it will eat, and be
given foods that will produce the great-
est weight in the shortest space of time;
but the animals intended for breeding
purposes should not be encumbered
with an abundance of fat. It is well
known that if a sow is very fat she
wil! cither fail as a breeder or produce
a litter of pigs that are weak. Fat
ewes and fat cows have met with fatal
result when producing young, milk
fever carrying them off at a time when
they are most valuable. The breeders
of poultry bave long ago become
aware of the fact that the very fat hens
do nct lay, and that when eggs fail
to hatch the cause may be traced to
overfeeding on carbonaceous food.
Horses that are made fat in winter
come out with the spring “soft” and
unfit for work, which is not due always
to the lack of exercise, but partly to
over feediug. y
ANIMALS OUT OF CONDITION.
An animal is out of condition if it is
excessively fat, unless such an animal
is purposely fatted. Proper condition
is not when an animal is poor or fat,
but when it is so fed that it is active,
healthy an full of vigor. If too fat it
becomes subject to diseases that would
not effect it otherwise, and it is also
then less capable of combating diseases
when attacked. Animals that are
producers like the cows, devote a large
share of their food to the product, but
many animals on the farm receive
more food than is really necessary for
their thrift and comfort. The food of
each animal should be regulated, . If
one can keep in good condition on one-
halt the food required by another it
needs no addition to its allowance, and
the farmer gains so much in the shape
of food. Nothing shovld be allowed
that can be wasted, and much is wast-
ed inthe shape of fat on breeding ani-
mals that could be saved by judicious
feeding. Desires, appetites and capaci:
ty of digestion differ in all animals,
and it is to the interest of the farmer
to take advantage of this fact, and reg-
ulate his management with this view
avoiding loss, and also practicing
economy.
Moslem Abhorrence of Bells.
The whole Moslem race despise and
abhor the sound of bells, which they
say cause the evil spirits to assemble
together. They do not use them on
their mosques or churches, but have in-
stead men called Meuzzins, stationed in
the minerets, who call out five times
each day for the people to assemble for
prayer. The cry is: “There is no Gud
but God, and Mohammed is his pro-
phet.”

The Use and Abuse of Whiskey.
This subject could be dwelt upon to a con-
siderable length, and yet mueh 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. Al} regular physi-
cians prescribe rye whiskey, and justly claim
that Klein's Silver Age and Duquesne 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 the world. Silver Age sells
tor $1.50 and Duquesne for §1.25 per full quart
