Farm Notes.
Seed may he tested by putting them
on a flannel cloth, covering them with
another cloth and keeping them moist.
A New York man says that black-
berries should yield 50 bushels per acre
the second year and 300 bushels the
third year.
Soot from the chimney is an excel
lent fertilizer for pot plants. Mix it
with water and apply it around the
roots.
North Carolina inflicts a penalty of
$50 on all seedsmen who fail to put
date of growing on each package of
sends they sell.
Before you plant an orchard, and se-
lect the varieties desired, first endeavor
to learn which of the varieties are best
adopted to your section.
Sheep give three profits in one year—
wool, lamb and mutton. It may be
added that the manure is also nearly
as valuable as the wool on poor farms.
Do not allow pools of water around
young trees. Bank up the earth
around each tree, or make a drain,
Water keeps the ground cool and re-
tards growth.
Grow a crop of carrots for your hors-
es and cows. Carrots will give a gold-
en color to the butter; and are highly
relished by the cows, while horses are
very partial to them, considering them
a delicacy.
The breaking of a young horse is
comparatively easy it we change the
word “break” to “teach,” and begin to
teach as soon asthe pupil is old enough
to understand, which will be a very
short time after birth.
Small farms being nearer neighbors
closer schools, better roads and wider
experience. The most successful farm-
ers are those who have educational
advantages and enjoy facilities that
cannot be obtained where the popula-
tion is sparse.
For young chicks to thrive in a
brooder they must be kept warm at
night, and given plenty exercise during
the day until eight weeks old ; then
turn them in the fattening department,
feedir g sofi, sweet tood for two weeks
and they are ready for market.
Onions, peas, early cabbage, kale,
raddish, beets, carrots, parsnips, salsity
and lettuce may be planted now.
String beans, lima beans, squash, cu-
cumbers, melons and tomatoes will not
stand the cold nights, and cannot go
into the open ground until danger of
frost is over.
Nothing should be wasted on the
farm. It is an advantage to keep at
least one or two pigs where the refuse
can be given them. Such useless arti-
cles as apple parings, leaves and tops
of vegetables, weeds and whey are all
readily accepted by pigs, and are more
suitable for them at this season than
grain,
A half acre devoted to a gardea will
convince the farmer that he can make
at least a good living on a small farm.
The value of a garden crop should not
be estimated by the prices which the
articles will bring it sold, but by what
they would cost the farmer if he did
not have them and had to buy them.
Removing ticks from lambs without
dipping the lambs is laborious work,
but it is claimed that if a teaspoonful
ot sulphur is allowed each lamb, in the
ground food, once a day, in dry weath-
er only, the ticks will be destroyed. In
using sulphur for stock, however, it
may be mentioned that there is risk of
rheumatism, as the effect of allowing
it during damp weather.
The farmer who grows a little of
everything may not succeed with some
crops, but it overtaken by a season of
drought he will not be so liable to loss
as the farmer who makes a specialty
of only one or two crops. He will al-
80 have a greater variety of farm pro-
duce for his own use, and will enjoy
life on the farm better than he who re
stricts his operaticns to a single crop.
Dairying is considered a science in
Europe. In Germany, a person must
serve one year as an apprentice, attend
a dairy school and then serve four
years in a creamery. It isa trade, and
must be gained by both theory and
practice. They are the persons who
make the “gilt-edge’” butter, however,
and theirservices are always in de
mand at good wages.
There is no remedy for fowl cholera,
but good results have been obtained by
adding a teaspoonful of liquid carbolic
acid to each halt gallon of the drinking
water. Indigestion is often mistaken
for cholera. One of the surest indica.
tions of cholera is intense thirst, and
the disease rungits course in a few days
destroying the majority of its victims
within 24 hours after the attack.
When the results are reported of the
operations of some successful dairyman
it will be found that he used pure-bred
or grade cows. The scrub has never
figured in a record, nor has any farmer
ever given to the agricultural press his
results with such cows. Yet the ma-
jority of dairymen will go on the high-
ways, or on the market, and buy their
fresh cows without regard to their feed-
ing or quality.
In raising sheep the specialties
should be lamb and mutton, the wool
being considered secondary. There
are many farmers now raising sheep
that weigh 150 poundseach, and which
produce eight or ten pounds of wool.
One reason for lack of success with
some is that they keep small sheep
and depend upon wool for their profit.
Sach a method may be the best where
land is cheap, but on farms that are
valuable, sheep should be kept for the
Production of meat. rather than for
wool.
An April Cold.
Needs a Spring Remedy to Cleanse the Whole
System.
A cold is the starting point of more
than half of the fatal illnesses from No-
vember to May. A cold is the first
chapter in the history of every ease of
consumption. A cold is the first stage
of chronic catarrh, the most loathsome
and stubborn of diseases. A cold is
the legitimate parent of a large family
of diseases, such as bronchitis, pleuri-
8y, pneumonia and quinsy. ~ To neglect
a cold is almost suicide, To fail to
provide against this well-nigh inevita-
ble evil is dangerous negligence. Pe-
ru-na is a safeguard as a preventive, a
specific as a eure for all of catarrh,
acute and chrouic, colds, coughs, con-
sumption, etc. ;
Every family should be’ provided
with a copy of the family physician
No. 2, a complete guide to prevent or
cure catarrh and all other winter dis-
eases; and also the latest edition ot
The Family Physician No. 3, which is
devoted to spring medicines and the
bodily disorders peculiar to the spring
ot the year-—a book that no one can
afford to be without at this time of the
year. Either sent free by The Peru-
na Drug Manufacturing Company of
Colum bus, Ohio.
What the Gun was Good For.
¢“Yés, gentleman,’ said one of the few
yet unboycotted liars of the Bohemian
Club, as he finished a snipe-shooting
story, ‘that was the most remarkable
gun I ever saw. Wouldn't take a
thousand dollars for it.”
“It's nothing to a gun I used to
own,’ said the ex-champion prevarica-
tor, waking up just then, “It was sim-
ply impossible for a bird to get away
from that gun. It made the closest and
most regular pattern you ever saw. I
traded it for a fifty-acre lot.”
“To Dr. Carver, eh ?” said the other
finished equivocator, sarcastically.
“No, to Jimpson, the big wholesale
druggist. He used it to shoot holes in
porous plasters fifty at a clip.”
And then nothing could be heard ex-
cept the scratching of the other wan’s
pen as he wrote out his resignation.

——The confidence that people have
in Ayer’s Sarsaparilla as a blood medi-
cine is the legitimate and natural
growth of many years. It has been
handed down from parent to child, and
is the favorite fauly medicine in thou-
sands of households.
Mr. Leighton Layter (atter a long
pause)—It was snowing when I came
in,

VRUSTS AND SCALES
HAIR AND EYEBROWS FELL OFF. DOC
TOR AND MANY REMEDIES NO BEN-
EFIT ENTIRELY CURED AND
HAIR RESTORED BY
CUTICURA.
My wife has been troubled for years with
dry crusts and scales on her head and eye
brows. Atter seeming to lie dormant for years
in her system, it broke over a year ago in all
fury. Her hair came out in big patches, her
eyebrows all fell off, and she presented a pit-
iable condition. We tried almost everything,
but she continued to get worse. Th. n we
tried one of our best physicians, but all to no
purpose. Finally my wife beheved that the
Cuticurc: Remedies would cure her. After she
had used nine boxes of Cuticura, and about
a dozen cakes of Cuticura Soap, aod four bot.
tles of Cuticura Resolvent. she was cured en-
tirely. Her hair came on again, and to-day
she has as fine a head of black curly hair and
as smooth as any lady in Allentown. Her eye-
brows are heavier than they ever were, her
scalp is free irom dandruff, and her health is
excellent. Now for the benefit of those sui-
fering with same disease, or to tho~e who may
doubt the truthfulness of this statement write
me, inclosing a stamp, and I will cheerfully
answer. [am sure that the Cuticura Remedies
cured my wife, for she used nothing else dur-
ing the four or five months she used them.

When Doctors All Agree.
It is a fact well established, that February
and March are the most trying months to aged
or enfeebled persons. Pneumonia, influenza
and kindred chest afflictions, are most liable
to get in their deadly work. There is bat one
thing to do, build up and and fortify the sys-
tem with a pure stimulant. Medical men »ll
over the country agree that Klein's “Silver
Age” at $1.50 per quart, and “ Duquesne’ at
81.25 per quart, stand without a peer. If you
want fine six year old Guckenheimer, Finch,
Gibson, Overholt, or Bear Creek, you can have
them at $1 00 per quart or six quarts for $5.00.
