Farm Notes.
Black bees are better architects than
taliaus, and can gather as much hon-
ey 5 but the docility of the Italians al-
lows us to handle four colonies where
Wwe can one of the blacks.
Too much care and judgment can-
not be exercised in choosing salt for
dairy purposes, as upon this depends to
a large extent, the salable appearance
and keeping quality of the products,
Peach trees that appear yellow may
not be diseased. The loss of color
occurs from several causes. Ag this
season the damage may be traced to
the borer rather than to diseases of any
kind,
In wo way will late chickens do so
Well as by scattering the coops around
In the orchard or if you have no or.
chard scatter them around over the
place among the weeds if you can do
uo better.
An exchange says that if a cow gets
choked with an apple or potato, hold-
ing up ite head and breaking an egg in
its mouth is a sure cure. The same
remedy is recommended for horses un,
der similar circumstances,
The yolks of eggs in butter as color
ing matter will make sweet butter ran-
os in a short time, as will also the
Juice of carrots, If the butter is to be
used within a short time either will do
nicely ; but the butter color is best and
not expensive.
What is commonly called cholera
among chickens is a disease which is
almost always the result of the poor
condition which surround them. With
good food, fresh, pure water daily and
clean quarters with a good range the
disease rarely gets a foothold,
A farmer who tried the experiment
ot rubbing the hide of an animal with
a raw onion reports that the result was
to rid the animal of lice, and it is be-
lieved that onions will serve to rid
animals of all such pests as lice, tick,
fleas, etc, the difficulty being the
labor of application of the remedy.
Roup is a disease which is very apt
to make trouble in the poultry yard in
autumn. The changeable and rainy
weather seems to favor its development.
Dampuoess, filth and impure food will
help it along, Let the sunlight into
the coops and keep the floor clean and
dry, and it will help toward keeping it
away.
The “London Dairy Journal” tells
of a remarkable Dexter cow, 7 years
old, which, during 12 months ending
April 1, 1893, gave over four tons and
900 pounds of milk. She isa small
cow, as Dexter cows are, and weighs
only a little over 600 pounds, so that
her milk product was 13 times her
own live weight,
When linseed meal and cottonseed
meal are used on the farm, they repre-
sent much valuable fertilizing material
to be added to the soil, hut the best
mode of preparing them to serve as
plant food is to add them to the rations
of the animals, when they finally
reach the manure heap. Nothing is
lost by purchase of materials which
serve to enrich the farm.
Middlings and skim milk is the best
food for growing pigs. Cornmeal is
unnecessary. The growing pig re-
quires the elements of bone and muscle,
and should not be made fat. Every
pound of fat on a pig in summer is an
incun.brance. It will be time enough
to fatten it when it has made the frame
upon which to place the fat.
One of the most instructive lessons
at a recent session of a farmers’ insti-
tute was the sample pounds of butter,
one of which sold at ten cents and the
other at thirty cents. It was explained
that they were made out of the same
quality of milk and cost about the
same to make. The difference in sell
ing price was due mainly to the differ-
ence in skill in making,
It is claimed by squash raisers who
have tried it that the laying of a shin-
gle or two by the side of ‘the hill will
trap large numbers of squash bugs,
which can then be easily destroyed at
an early morning visit. One writer
says he has known 25 or 30to be
found under a single shingle. But the
gardner needs to get there before the
bug turns out for his days work.
There should really be no weeds on
any farm. It may not be an easy
undertaking to destroy them in a single
season, bat it can be done by persistent
work in two or three years, and each
year there will be fewer weeds. Weeds,
like the regular crops, come from
-8eeds, and when the seeds have grim.
inated their mission is ended, and they
will no longer exist. If the young
weeds are then destroyed there can be
no reseeding of the land. It means
hard work in succeeding years,
The white butterfly, the parent of
the cabbage worm, will now be busy,
-and it will pay to go out daily and des.
troy as many as possible, which is not
as difficult as it may appear, The
‘destruction of one butterfly means the
prevention of many worms in the cab.
bage. Dusting the cabbage with insect
wder is one of the best remedies,
‘The use of the kerosene emulsion is
resorted to by some, but thereis a
liability of the cabbage being im-
pregnated with the odor of kerosene.
WHEAT Tests. —The following re-
‘port by Prof. H. J, Waters of the
Experiment Station, State College, Pa.,
upon the tests of verities of wheat,
will be of iuterest to every farmer who
" reads the Warcuman.
The fourth season’s test of the leading
varieties of wheat at this Station has
' Just closed and a brief summary of the
results will be found below. They were
grown in 1893 on an upland limestone
clay =0il of moderate fertility asa part
of a four years’ rotation, consisting of
corn, oats, wheat and clover; sown
Sept. 1-2 at the rate of eight pecks per
acre, with an application of 800 lbs. of
dissolved S. C. rock. None of the var-
ieties named in the table suffered appre-
ciably {rom winter killing.
The subjoined table shows the yield
of grain and straw per acre, weight of
grain per bushel, and the average yield
per acre for the past four years of such
varieties as have been tested through
this period. :

A study of this table shows that in
1898 Canada Wonder gave the highes;
yeld. This is our first season’s exper-
ience with this wheat and while it gives
good promise we do not advise farmers
to discard thoroughly tried and standard
sorts for this variety until further tests
are made, A good example of the loss
that may result from such a practice is
found in the case of the valley wheat
which in 1893 gave the second highest
yield, but in the four years’ average falls
far below 2 number of other varieties:
Those that have given the best results on
the Station grounds for the past four
years are, in the order named : Reliable,
Currell’s Prolific, Dietz Longberry Red,
Wyandotte Red and Fulecaster.

TCHING AND BURNING.
SURES ALL OVER HER BODY, SUFFER-

: BY CUTICURA.
Your most valuable Cuticura Remedies have
done my little girl so much good that I feel
like saying this for the benefit of those who
are troubied with skin diseases. She was
troubled with itching, burning sores. When I
took her to the doctor the first time, he called
it the Italian itch, and said he would cure her
in two weeks. When the two weeks were up,
he called it eczema, and in that time she was
worse than before. He doctored her for three
months, and she was so bad that we did not
know what to do, He did not do her any good.
I saw the advertisement of Cuticura Remedies
in the paper, and I said to my wife, “I am
going to try them.” Mind what I say, she was
so thick with sores that we had to soak her
clothes to take them off. Itch | there was no
end toit. She had it all over her bodys back,
‘legs, arms, in between her fingers, She did
not have it on her head. But after taking your
Cuticura Remedies for two weeks the itch stop-
ped, and in four weeks the sores wers all gone.
