Farm Notes.
—Do not begin to feed your new
corn until the stock of old corn is ex-
hausted. Let it dry.
—The small, unsalable potatoes may
be boiled and fed to calves, or they
may be utilized for poultry.
—Working over the manure in the
heap is a practice that should be made
general on all farme. The manure
requires overhauling and such work
pays.
—The use of kerosene on animals,
in order to destroy lice, is a severe
method, as it is irritating to the skin.
The proper mode isto mix one part
kerosene with four parts of linseed or
any cheap oil.
—Mowing is difficult or easy, ac-
cording to the smoothness of the land.
When the land is well worked over
with a harrow when seeding the mow-
ing will be facilitated when the graes
crop is harvested.
When the timeof growing an animal
is reduced the cost is reduced also.
The breed that will grow rapidly and
save a month or a year, compared with
other stock, is so much ahead and the
profits will be correspondingly larger.
—Heaves in horses is caused gener-
ally by dusty hay. As a precaution
the hay may be well shaken and
moistened before it is placed in the
rack, and the rack should be on the
floor rather than above the head of
the horse.
—Somebody had to plant trees for
the present generation, and it must be
done for the next. If the prospect of
a crop is remote there is at least some-
thing gained at present in the increased
value of the farm that contains a
young and growing orchard.
—When good cream is added to that
which has been kept on hand a long
time, in order to accumulate enough
for a churning, the result is that a lot
of good cream is injured by the mixing.
This happens frequently where only
one cow is "kept. The “best butter is
made from fresh cream.
—Experiments made this season
demonstrate that half a potato is the
proper size for seed. There is but lit-
tle difference in_ yield from a whole
potato and a half potato, but the latter
gives far better results than emaller
pieces of seed or when the potato is
cut into several pieces.
—Such crops as corn fodder and
ensilage are not classed among those
that are marketable, but they can be
cheaply produced and sold in the shape
of milk. The profit from a croplargely
depends upon the uses to which it is
put, and the accomplishment of the
object sought when growing it.
, —This month will witness the ripen-
ing of millions of weed seeds. Take
the scythe and cut down all weeds
while they are green, and before the
seeds mature. - The mower can be
used on the fields, but there are many
places where the work must be done
by hand. It is very important to doit
now.
—The first beginning in teaching
the boy to prefer farming is to get him
interested. Give him a few bantam
fowls, and allow him to manage the
flock and have the proceeds. He will
be pleased with them as pets, and as
he becomes larger he will gradually
take an interest in- other stock, espe
cially if be is permitted to grow the
food for his pets. on a small plot of
ground. :
—Skim milk as food for young stock
differs from whole milk only in its
proportion of fat. The nitrogen and
mineral matter remains. Milk is
skimmed in order to remove the fat
(cream), and when fed to pigsor calves
it should have some substance added
to it which restores the fat, and for this
purpose linseed meal has been used
satisfactorily, and when the skim milk
is fed it should be lukewarm, or about
the temperature of milk when it has
just been drawn from the udder.
—The keeping of apples during the
winter largely depends on the mode of
handling them when they are harvest-
ed. Apples that have fallen to the
ground have become bruised to some
extent, and will sooner or later begin
to decay. Such applesshonld be made
into cider, for vinegar, without delay.
Apples that are to be stored should be
picked from the tree and handled care-
fully, so as not to permit of theelightest
injury to a single one, it being well
known that where one rotten appleisin
the barrel the others are liable to rot
sooner than if all are sound.
—Tt is claimed that the corn-fodder
from one acre of land contains twice as
much digestible matter as two tons of
hay, which gives it a value nearly, it
not quite, equal to hay, and it is rich
in the carbo hydrates, or heat-produc-
ing elements. ‘I'he above applies to
the fodder from whicha crop of ears
has been taken, When it is consider.
ed that corn gives two crops in one
ear—ears and fodder—and that a
arger crop of fodder may be grown
when the land is seeded and cultivated
for that purpose, corn may ‘be rightly
considered the king of all crops.
Farmers have made the mistake. of
estimating the value of the crop only
by the quantity of grain produced, as
the fodder is not marketable, but since
it has been demonstrated that no por-
tion of the plant is lacking as food,
the fodder can take the place of hay
and thus perform the same service as
may be expected from hay. The ob-
ject of the experiments is to convince
farmers that corn fodder should no
longer be left in the fieldato be wasted,
butis a valuable food, and the plant
one of the most complete in its food
materials that can be grown. :

Behind the Scenes.
You are Mistaken in Thinking an Actress’ Life
is All a Bed of Roses.
The famous Peg Woffington once
said : “To amuse the public, what a
sad vocation for one who thinks.” The
public sees only the glitter and glamour
of the exterior ; the life seems easy and
luxurious The dramatic star is dressed
in gorgeous attire, bedecked with jewels
of rare value, and mado love to by the
handsomest of “juvenile leads.” The
matinee girl in the front row would for-
sake all her loved ones at home to play
maid even to such a queen, but could
she read the heart and heed the warning
of the painted woman before her, her
imaginary castle of luxurious ease
would crumble, to be crushed by her
dainty feet in her eagerness to gain the
shelter of her own peaceful home, full
of delicate refinement and tender, moth-
erly love. I venture to say there is not
an actress on the boards to-day (with
few exceptions) who would not exchange
her successful stage life for the quiet of
a happy home and simple living.
Does a public think of the physical,
mental and moral labor a woman has to
undergo to be successful? She is beau-
tiful, talented, ambitious; she knows
the stage is the one vocation in which
she is best qualified to gain her liveli-
hood—others are dependent upon her.
She must do what she can and make the
most she cap ; but oh! the reality, the
hardships, the privations, the insulls
and the final downfall morally to gain
the plaudits of a fickle public, loud in
their fulsome praise during her brilliant
meteoric youth, and forgetting her bur-
ial place after death.
How many men and women, think
you, in that admiring audience would
jend their aid and sympathy 1n distress?
The flavor of the stage is conducive to
loudness. A mania for eccentric dress-
ing, faddish walk, a self-conscious toss
of the head denote the life.
Even prudish Mrs. Kendal has a self-
assertible, independent manner that
shows her knocks against the rough
edges of the world hurt no more and she
1s able to stand her ground with the
rest of them. YetI know this gentle
mother would much rather forsake to-
day all the glamours of stage life to set-
tle down a quiet matron in the bosou
of her lovely family if she thought she
had made sufficient of this world’s good’s
to leave them comfortable for life.
The gayety charmer, the opera bouf-
fist, the nimble chorus girl, may adore
the life, but not the earnest, honest, sin-
cere, thinking actress, who knows its
heartaches, temptations, and jealousies,
who may come out unscathed, but after
a struggle.

A Tory View.
It Is That Gladstone Will Never Win in Great
Britain Again.
Lonpox, Sept. 10.—The Standard
says that everything points to a disso-
lution of Parliament next year. Mr.
Gladstone, it says, deludes himself if
he thinks the constituencies will have
by then forgotten his Irish policy.
The second home rule bill is worse
than the first, and we cannot possibly
have a third. The paper predicts that
under the circumstances Mr. Gladstone
can never obtain a majority in Great
Britain again.

PITTSBURG, Pa. September I11.—
Captain George W. Skinner, having re-

fice until after the October payments
have been made and all settlements in
connection therewith closed. A num-
ber of skillful and experienced clerks
will be retained for an indefinite peri-
od.

Stories of Great Luck.
Captain Ben Ferguson, collector on
the ferryboat Hite, is always reminis-
cent. The other day the captain said
to me. “You seldom hear of a man
making $90,000 in one night in these
days, but I know of such an instance.
Mr. Coleman, who ran a foundry on
Washington street. near Brook, did 1t.
To me he exhibited no delight whatever.
His words were Captain, I made $90,-
000 last night; went to bed early and
slept soundly. You know the price of iron
went up, and fortunately I had enough
on hand, which I had purchased ata
low figure, to net me a fortune.” As
Captain Ferguson concluded the story
he told another of how Dennis Long
made $200.000 because the price of ron
dropped out of sight. - It was just at a
time when Mr. Long had failed in
business and told Captain Ferguson
that he was $400,000 in debt.
“Well,” said the captain, ‘Dennis
Long went up to Indianapolis to bid
on the construction of the city water-
works. There was but one other bidder,
tract. Not long after iron began fluct-
uating, and Long's estimate having

he’s been making money ever since.” —

patrons and the public, in general, to witnes

be made in the large room, formerly occupied
by Harper Bros., on Spring street. 1t has been
added to my factory and will be used exclu.
sively for the sale of harness, being the first
exclusive salesroom ever used in this town, as
heretofore the custom has been to sell goods
in the room in which they were made. This
elegant room has been refitted and furnished
with glass cases in which the harness csn be
nicely aisplayed and still kept away from
heat aud dust, the enemies of long wear in
lesiner. Our factory now occupies a room
16x74 teet and the store 20x60 added makes it
the largest establishment of its kind outside
of Philadelphia and Pittsburg.
Weare prepared to offer better bargains in
the future than we have done in the past and
we want everyone to see our goods and get
prices for when you do this, out of self defense
ou will buy. Our profits are not large, but

Bellefonte. We are not indulging in idle
philanthropy. It is purely business.” We are
not making much, but trade is growing and
that is what we are interested in now. Profits
will take care of themselves.

men during the winter they were all put
