ately Bellefonte, Pa., Sep. 29, 1893. mm —— —— Farm Notes. — Turkeys should have an open shed under which to roost. It they are compelled to resort to the tree limbs the result will be a loss from disease. —Tuarnips should not be neglected because they have nearly reached their limit of growth, but the weeds should be kept down, which will greatly facil itate the harvesting of the crop when such work is done. —Many excellent animals are dis- posed of because they are not profita- ble when the fault is with the farmer, who may not have allowed them an opportunity of giving him a profit in- stead of causing a loss. —Tile drainage will sometimes ena- ble the farmer to obtain a never failing stream of water by gradually emptying the water into some ditch or stream that bas been dry for a portion of the year, while the drainage of the soil will also add to the yield of the crops. —THave a place for every tool or implement used on the farm, and store it under shelter during the winter, first giving the parts that are composed of iron a coating of kerosene as a protec- tion against rust, while the parts com- posed of wood should he well rubbed with linseed oil. —1It is not so far off from Thanks. giving, hence the turkeys need atten- tion at this season. Those intended for market should receive a meal at the barnyard at night, and later on they should receive food twice a day, so as to have them in a fat condition when the time arrives for their elaugh- ter. —An advantage may be secured in using soapsuds on the lawn. Soap suds are excellent on celery and aspar- agus, and if no other place can be found for dispbsing of them they will be beneficial to the manure heap. They are worth saving and should not be thrown away on some location where they may not be desired. —The fodder cutter is one of the most useful and important implements on the farm. Itisnot used as much as it should be, for it demands hard work if there is no power to be obtain- ed, but it will enable the farmer to use a large amount of coarse food that is usually wasted. The fodder cutter should be kept in constant use during the winter. —Whether lightning rods are a pro- tection or injury on the tarm is a sub- ject worthy the attention of scientists. There is a diversity of views on the matter, and more light is needed by those interested. Much depends on the connections, as is known, but whether the rods prevent lightning from doing injury entirely or not is yet to be settled. —Canada ashes vary in value toa greater extent than any other fertilizer. Numerous analyses show that some ashes are much richer in potash than others, and their weight and fertilizing. value depend upon many contingencies. If weighed during very damp weather the moisture absorbed from the atmos- phere will add to the weight. The cheaper way to purchase potash is to buy the potash salts. —Good breeds give good results cor- responding with their treatment. A shorthorn cow cannot be expected to give a profit when she is turned out on the hillsides, or on a closely cropped pasture, to pick up her food, as she 18 not adapted to that kind of an exist- ence. She thrives best, as do some other breeds, only on luxuriant past ures and on liberal rations, but she will give good results from such better treatment. It is claimed for a crop of buckwheat that it can be grown on the same land every year without exhausting the soil. The claim is correct go far as growing buckwheat to be turned under is con- cerned, but any crop that matures seed exhausts thesoil to a certain extent, and for that reason buckwheat should be grown in rotation with other crops. Onions are also grown on the same lo- cation every year, but success is assuar- ed with them only when the land is heavily manured every year. —1It is well known that in the late fall, when the cows are taken from the | pasture, and put upon dry food, there is usually a shrinkage of the milk sup- ply. This happens nearly always when there is a complete change of fcod. As frost may now appear at any time it is better to begin with dry food now, allowing a small quantity ate} f¥rst, and gradually increasing the dry ration so as to prepare the cows for the change which will soon be necessa- ry and which cannot be avoided. —It is believed by some farmers that no harm will be done wheat if the cows graze on it for a short time after the wheat is well on in growth, but as there is always a liability of damage when the ground is somewhat soft it should be avoided.” The young plants are very watery, and may cause loose- ness of the bowels which way also affect the flow of milk. Experiments that have been made;in that direction show that the wheat is in no manner benefited by allowing cattle to graze upon it. — After experimentingithrough three seasons to test the value of copper pre- parations for the prevention of potato rot, by Professor Liebscher, in Ger- many, he found that by spraying the vines with a 1} per cent, [solution of Bordeaux mixture, using 30 gallons _ per acre, and following with a 2 per cent. olution four weeks later, at the proportion of 50 gallons per acre, there was some disease on the early crops, but the disease did not appear on the late crops, even when they were nct sprayed. He considered his first epray- ing as being too late and the second gpraying as useless. A Functionary Who Facilitates the Movement of Road Traffic. The sais isa runner who keeps in front of a carriage and warns common people out of tne way and who beats them with a stick if they do not hurry up aboutit. He is arelic of the days when the traffic in all of the’ streets was so congested that he wus an absolute necessity ; now he males it possible for a carriage to move forward at a trot, which, without his aid it could not do. Itis obvious that todo this he must run swiftly. Most men when they run bend their bodies forward and keep their mouths closed in order to save their wind, The sais runs with his ghoulders thrown back and trumpeting like an enraged elephant. He holds his long wand at bis. side like a musket, and not trailing in his hand likea walkingstick, and he wears a soft shirt of white stuff, and a sleeveless coat buried in gold lace. His breeches are white, and as voluminous as a woman’s skirts ; they fall to a few inches above | his knee ; the rest of his Jeg is bare, and rigid with muscle. On his head he has a fez with a long black tassel, and a magnificent silk scarf of many colorsis bound tightly around his waist. He is a perfect ideal of color and movement, and as he runs he bellows like a bull, or roars as you have heard a lion roar at feeding-time in a menagerie. Itis not a human cry at all, and you never hear it, even to the last day you stay in Cairo, without a start, as though it were a cry of “help” at night, or the quick-clanging bell of a fire-engine. There is nothing else in Cairo which is so satisfying. There are sometimes two of them running abreast, dressed exactly alike, and with the upper part of their bodies as rigid as the wand pressed against their side, and with the ends of their scarf and the long tassel streaming out behind. As they yell and bellow, donkeys and carriages and peoplejscramble out of their way until the carriage they precede has rolled rapidly by. Only princesses of the royal harem, and consuls-general, and the heads of the army of occupation and the Egyptian army are permitted two sais ; other people may have one. They appealed to me as much more autocratic appendages than a troop of lifeguards. The rastequaire who first introduces them in Paris will make his name known in a day, and alord mayor’s show ora boxseaton a four-in-hand will be a modest and middle-closs dis- tinction in comparison. — Harper's Weekly. ss a——————— A Nice Tramp. He Was Respectable and “Respectful and Could Run a Lawn Mower. “There was the nicest tramp along here to-day,” said Mrs. Highland Parke to husband at supper last night. ‘He wasn’t a bit like ordinary tramps, all dirty and with a lot of matted hair on his face and a red nose and bleary eyes and all that sort of thing. Of course, his clothes weren’t very good, but he was clean, and he was so polite.” “What did he want?’ asked Mr. Highland Parke, as he covered his tea biscuit with honey. “Something to eat, but he didn’t de- mand it as his right, the way most of those fellows do. He told me that he had been out of work for a long time and, on account of the stringency in the money market and the scarcity of cur- rency, he was unable to get a job. He said he bad consumption—galloping consumption—and he had a fearful cough and while he was taiking to me he took his hat off and used good gram- mar and looked so pitiful that I offered him a meal. He wouldn’t consent to take it unless I would let him do some- thing for it, and, even when I told him that he was too weak to work, he insist- ed on doing something. He asked me if we didn’t want the lawn mowed, and, when I said we did, he insisted on mow- ing it. I watched for while and he did a pretty good job, I guess.” “Hum,” said Mr. Highland Parke, as he spread more honey on another tea biscuit, ‘‘he was an extraordinary tramp. that’s a fact. I guess I'll go out and see what sort of a job he did on the lawn.” In a few minutes Mr. Highland Parke returned with an ominous look on his face. “He was, indeed, a very nice tramp,” said he in a peculiar tone of voice. “Why, Highland!” exclamed Mrs. Parke, ‘what on earth is the matter? Didn’t he cut the grass ?”’ “Qh, yes ; he cut the grass.” “Well, don’t you think he was a pretty nice sort of a tramp ?”’ “Must have been. He stole the lawn mower.”’-—Buffalo Express. A Word to Mothers. Do not always be a drudge in your own household. Rest a little when- ever you can, and allow some of the memt ers of your family to do some of the work. Have a chair by the stove and when you peep into the oven sit while vou look, yea, even a moment after ; you will work all the faster for the short change of position. While mend- ing have your chair in the coziest cor- ner, where good light will come in, and let the sun strike upon you, if pos- gible, so that yon may get the strength- ening, health-giving influence of it. Drop your hands occasionally and let them rest. Let your eyes wander out through the window glass as far as pos- sible and rest your eyes by looking at something interesting out of doors. Drop the reins of household govern: ment for a little while, unbend your- selt, and sit down on the rug and play with the children, and, as it were, be- come again a child. Economize your strength, Sit when you cau. Do not bold the haby when it can rest and grow just as well in its erib. By rest- ing when you can, by planning the work to be done, and by being system- atic and orderly in all things, a4 wom- | an’s work is more easily done.—N, 7. | Weeriy, Substantially Unchanged.

Refused to Naturalize Hugh Ross, Pir1sBURG, Sept. 12,—A sensational echo of the Homestead strike was heard in the United States district court yesterday. Judge Buffington refused to naturaiize Hugh Ross, 8 native of Scotlavd, because he had been a nfember of the famous and so- called treasonable advisory committee of strikers, of which Hugh O'Donnell was chairman. Indictments charging Ross with murder, treacon, riot and conspiracy are still pending. The decision affects hundreds of unnatura- lized Homesteaders.
