Farm Notes.
Dig around the peach trees and search
for the borers. The use of kainit and
soapsuds around the trunks will assist
in destroying insects that affect the
TOO!8.
There is a tendency to plant too
‘many acres. More acres sown 10 grass,
and fewer and better cultivated acres
of corn would frequently be better for
many farmers.
Tomato vines may be supported with
stakes or by trellises, which prevent
the fruit from rotting by permitting a
free circulation or air, as well as keep-
ing the fruit on the ground.
The small Henderson bush Lima
bean is early, and very prolific.
Though not as large as the standard
kinds, it can always be depended upon
for a crop when the other varieties
fail.
Experiments with scarlet clover, in
New Jersey, have not been very fa-
vorable, and those who have tested it
on sandy soil are ot the opinion that
the scarlet fever is not all that is claim-
ed for it.
Lima beans, string beans, squashes
and cucumbers may be planted, and
they should grow rapidly, as the ground
is warm. To have them early apply
well-rotted manure, and use it plenti-
fully.
Crops do not grow the entire year,
but the live stock can be made to grow
from one year to another. The food
should be produced for winter use, and
in quantity to permit of keeping as
many animals as possible.
Put the hotbeds to use in some man-
ner after the early plants have been
taken out. It is just the place for
cucumbers. Throw a pile of brush on
each side of the hotbed and the vines
will cover the support thus given.
Chicks that are hatched during this
month will come too late to be sold
as broilers, but they will sell readily as
roasters late in the season. Capouns
and broilers are now bringing high
prices, the demand being larger than
the supply.
Millet is a summer crop, and can be
grown as easily as aoy other, as it
matures quickly. Itis much more nu-
tritious than some grasses that are
cured for hay, and if cut before the
seed heads form it is an excellent food
for both cattle and horses.
Watermelons and cantaloupes should
be planted now, as the ground is warm
and the liability of frost perhaps over.
Use plenty of manure in the hills and
also broadcast a fertilizer of equal parts
of potash, superphosphate and nitrate
of soda on the ground, harrowing it in-
to the soil.
Sage is a profitable crop. For mar-
ket purposes it is grown from seed, the
plants being set out on the ground that
has been occupied by peas or some
early crop, so as to secure a late crop
from the land. The rows are 20 inches
apart, the plants being 12 inches apart
in the row. Late in the fall the crop is
Anrvesied, tied up in bunches and
sold.
A farmer cannot control the market
prices, but he can greatly lessen the
cost of production, It is extravagant
to neglect a crop after it is planted,
and it is unwise to allow the ground to
bear two crops at the same time, as
happens when the weeds and grass
make a start and interfere with the
plants that should have full possession
of the soil.
Nitrate of soda is excellent for bring’
ing the grass out green upon the lawn.
After the lawn has been mowed, and
just before arain, an application of 50
pounds of nitrate of soda, finely ground,
will prove excellent. Recent trials with
nitrate of soda on grass show that for
every 50 pounds used upon grass lan’
there was a gain in grass equal to $5
per acre.
An Indiana cow, on a test of seven
days, gave 248 pounds and 2 ounces
of milk (about 120 quarts,) and made
22 pounds and six ounces of butter, the
butter being salted one ounce to the
pound and worked dry. The cow was
a Jersey, and her tood consisted, for the
week, of 84 pounds bran, 50 pounds
corn meal, 50 pounds ground oate, 12
pounds linseed meal and 240 pounds
ensilage.
Kainit is one of the best substances
that can be used in the manure heap,
or in privies, as it is not only an excel-
lent potash fertilizer, and comparative:
ly cheap, but it also chemically com:
bines with other substances, and arrests
the escape of ammonia. It should be
scattered over the heap from time to
time, as fresh manure .s added, or the
heap may be worked over and the
kainit added by being mixed with the
substance heap.
When the soil is stirred after a rain,
and made fine and loose, evaporation
of the moisture from below is prevent
ed. During a time of drought no bet-
ter way to mitigate its effects can be
resorted than that of loosening the top
soil to the depth of one or two inches.
The loose dirt serves as a covering,
which protects the roots from the effects
of the drying air and also assists in re:
taining a supply of needed moisture,
The citrous tri-foliate (three leaved
Japan orange) is pronounced by Pro-
fessor Massey, of the Virginia Experi:
ment Station, as being superior to the
osage orange for a hedge plant, and
that its roots do not feed over a large
area of ground, as is the case wilh
nearly all of the hedge plants now in
use. It is scarce, as the plants are but
recently introduced from Japan, but
no doubt the demand will induce seeds.
men to give it more attention. [It is
propagated from cuttings.

——There is nothing I have ever used
for muscular rheumatism that gives me
as much relief as Chamberlain’s Pain
Balm does. I have been using it for
about two years—four bottles in all—as

know a good thing when I get hold of
it, and Pain Balm is the best liniment I
haveever met with. W. B. Denny,

0 FFENSIVE ECZEMA.
S
FFERED TERRIBLY. DOCTORS AND
MEDICINES USELESS. CURED IN
FOUR WEEKS BY CUTICURA.
{ have a boy, fifteen year old, born in Fish-
kill, portrait enclosed, who had the eczema so
offensive that I could not stay in the room with
him. The poor boy suffered terribly. His
feet were terribly sore, he could not wear any
shces, and had therefore to stay at home from
school. When he put on a pair of dry stock-
ings in the morning.they would,in one hour be
saturated with moisture and very offensive
even in the coldest weather, The disease be-
gan to spread over his body, especially his
hands and fingers. The thumbs on both his
hands became stiff and as useless as two with-
ered sticks of wood. It would be useless tor
me to try to tell the suffering this boy endur-
ed. Itook him to two different doctors, both
gave him lots of medicine, but all to no use.
He grew worse. I therefore despaired of ever
having him cured. One day I saw the great
benefits promised to those who would use Cu-
ticura Remedies. 1 wentrightaway to thedru
store and bought them. I must confess I ha
but little faith in them. However I used them
according to directions, and to day I say truth-
fully to all the world, if you wish to publish it,
that my son is entirely cured, thank God ana
thank the discoverers of Cuticura Remedies.
They cured him in four weeks as sound as a
gold dollar.
