Farm Notes.
It is said that pyrethrum powder
will destroy the green cabbage worm.
Mix a tablespoontul to a gallon of water
and try the solution.
Ordinarily the man with a small
farm makes just as good a living as
the man with several times as many
acres, and with much less worry.
The general average condition of
wheat in the United States, May 1,
was 75,3. This is the lowest general
average since 1888. The condition is
lowest in the great winter wheat belt.
If the early beets are too thick in the.
rows thig out .the plants, leaving only
one plant-to six’inches of space. The
plants that are pulled up may be trans.
planted elsewhere if desired.
All farmers consider the pasture an
essential feature of their farms, yet if
the land devoted to pasture was culti-
vated to crops it would permit of keep-
ing more cattle by the soiling system.
Don’t forget that if you plant a treef
for shade you will have the disadvant-
ages of shade. The lawns, flower beds
and gardens may sufter therefrom un-
less ample open space is reserved for
them.
The simple operation o
throwing out grain to a flock of poul-
try may be done in a wrong manner,
The whole flock should be given ‘fair
play” by scattering the grain widely
and on clean ground.
Although irrigation is but seldom
practiced in this section, yet there are
farms that could be easily irrigated at
a small cost, and the result would be
very satisfactory. It is worthy of the
congideration of farmers.
If your plants in the gardea appear
unthrifty, apply a small quantity of
saltpetre (nitrate of soda) on each side
of the rows, close to the plants, and
just before a rain. In a few days they
will take on a green tinge and grow
rapidly.
To prevent insects from ascending
trees from the ground, and prevent rats
mice and rabbits from attacking the
trees, mix two parts of chloride of lime
with one part of lard, and smear the
mixture iu a narrow band around each
tree.
Large size is not necessarily of great
importance in the profitable production
of beef, although quick growth is.
‘This, added to early maturity, is what
gives the profit. It is, perhaps, not
necessary to add that good blood con-
duces to these ends, but itis just as
well to keep the fact in mind.
Crops which can be used for late
pasturing in the interval between grass
and hay should be grown wherever
stock is kept. Millet and late sweet
corn serve this purpose very well. If
you have some vacant patches late in
the season sow them with these,
and the crops will not come amiss.
Ifit is desired to preserve eggs, for
higher prices later on, the first thing
to do is to remove all the males from
the hens, as eggs from hens not with
males will keep three times as long as
eggs that are fertile, while the hens
will also lay as many eggs when the
males are away as when they are pres-
ent,
Now that we have green pastures
once more, let us be reasonable and
not overstock them at the outset. There
may come a time of draught or of
scarcity a little later, and it is just as
well to have something in reserve. It
is better to have fewer head and be
prepared to care for them well all the
way through.
As manure from the cow differs in
composition from that in the horse
stalls it will be proper to mix them in
one heap, with some absorbent materi-
al. The urine is more valuable than
the solid matter, and it should be ad-
ded to the manure heap also. It will
be an advantage to use Kainit with the
manure in the heap in order to pre-
vent the volatile matter.
It is easy enough to keepsiock in
good condition while they. have abun-
dant pasture, but as soon as the grass
begins to fail it requires some manage-
ment to do it without undue cost. To
provide against this contingency it is a
good plan to have a field sown espec
ially for late pasture with sweet corn,
millet or something that will keep
green after the natural pastures are ex-
hausted.
To renew a strawberry patch work
well between the rows as soon as the
crop is picked, and then clean the rows
by leaving one plant in the space of
one foot in the row, which will permit
of killing the weeds in the rows, the
runners filling up the spaces later in
the season. This will not give as good
a bed as the setting out of new plants
(now too late to do so), but it will put
an old bed to use for another year.
Rats on the farm do great damage,
and consume a great share of grain,
To attempt to destroy them demands
more labor than can well be bestowed.
The only sateguard is to have no har
boring places for them. Buildings
that are liable to ve invaded by rats
should be so arranged that the cats
can follow the rats to any point. Poi.
sons are unsafe to use in the destruc
tion of rats, as valuable animals may
also be destroyed by it.
Rotate with clover, and the land will
be 1nproved. © An excellent rotation is
corn, potatoes, wheat and clover. If
corn ard potatoes occupy the ground
the land will receive clean cultivation,
thus destroying weeds that may have
taken possession of the land. Rye, oats,
buckwheat and millet are also crops
that may be grown upon the land if de.
sired. The object should be never to
grow two crops of the same kind in suc:
cession on one field.

——Little Ruth can read very nice-
ly, and ‘her mother is anxious that at
an early age she shall become familiar
with the Bible ; so that when she was
obliged to leave home to be gone for
five moaths she told Ruth siie would
bring her home a muft ifshe wonld say
a Bible verse every night before she
went to bed: Ruth promised that she
would. Mamma came home at the
end of five montls. Before presenting
the muff she said: “How about the
verses, Ruth?” *I said one every
night mamma.” “That's mamma’s
nice girl. You must have learned a
good many in five months, dear?’
“Why, -I always said the very same
one.” “What was that?’ “Jesus
wept !"” said Ruth.
——From friend to friend goes the
story of the excellence of Hood’s Sarsa-
parilla and what it has accomplished,
and this is the strongest advertising
which is done on behalf of this medicine.
‘We endeavor to tell honestly what
Hood's Sarsaparilla is and what it will
do, but what it 2as done is far more im.
portant and far more potent. Its un-
equalled record of cures is sure to con-
vince those who have never tried
Hood’s Sarsaparilla that is an excellent
medicine.
——ZEven in its incomplete state dur-
ing the opening month of May the
World’s Fair, according to the report of
its managers, yielded a surplusage of
receipts over expenses amounting to
$250,000. This is a showing as grati-
fying as 1t is unexampled in the records
of former international exhibitions.
——A few of the summer girls who bave
made a somewhat premature appearance
look a little like butterflies, with their
winged gowas, and a little like partially
inflated balloons. - Something depends
on the point of view.
—— Frederick Mertz, a farmer living
at Quarryville, was swindled out of $100
by a buncosteerer while on his way
from Philadelphia to his home.
——Rice paper is not made from eith-
er rice paper or rice straw, but from a
pithy plant called tuag tsua, found in
China, Corea and Japan,
——Common table salt is nota salt,
and has long since been excluded from
the class of bodies denominated “salts.”
The year 1893 began on a Sunday and
it will finish on a Sunday, so that it will
contain fifty-three Sundays.
The largest piece of copper ever taken
out of the Michigan upper peninsula
weighed about nine tons.
Too many men try to pull them-
seves out of trouble with a corkscrew.
——A man with a million can’t very
well help being a capital fellow.
About 138.000,000 envelopes are used
in this country annually.

I PACE ALMOST RAW.
ERUPTION FROM BIRTH. DOCTOR AND
SIMPLE REMEDIES FAILED. CURED
IN THREE WEEKS BY CUTICURA.
I wish to thank vou. for the good that Cuti-
cura has done my child. I send portrait. A
short time after its birth its face broke out
with some kind of eruption. I consulted our
family doctor about it, and he told me there
was not much to be done for it. We tried some
simple remedies. and they all failed to do any
good. At last I thought to try Cuticura Reme
dies, and the result is wonderful. My wife used
Cuticura Remedies abont four times a day. At
the time we first commenced to use Cuficura,
the face was almost raw. It looked the same
as a burn would look as if the skin was peeled
off, and after about three weeks’ use of the Cu-
ticura Remedies it was cured. I did not think
Cuticura would amount to mueh, but the result
has changed my mind. I will never be with-
out them.
W. A. BANG, 174 William St., NewarkN. J*
Having had an aggravated case of eczema on
ankle and knee of two years’ standing, I was
induced tw try your Cuticura Remedies, which
have entirely cured me. I would with acnfi-
dence recommend them to others similarly
afflicted.
