Farm Notes.
—Bear in mind that the young
trees will need protection from rabbits, |
Dou’t put it off until too |
mice, etc.
late this time.
—The strawberry beds should be
well mulched in order to avoid having
the plants thrown out of the ground
when the frost begins to disappear.
— Farmers need not go far to sell
their wutton. They should discard
pork toa certain extent and supply
their own tables with a variety of
meat.
—The modern fruit grower must
constantly use insecticides. Get all
the information possible this winter so
as to intelligently combat fruit pests
season.
—All of the stock on the farm are
kept for profit, and the better they are
cared for the greater the profit. Work
on the principle that if it pays to keep
stock at all, it pays to keep them well.
—Never work butter with the band,
but use the ladle, in order not to de-
stroy the grain. The science of butter
making is in handling it after it comes
out of the churn, yet this portion of the
process receives the least attention.
—The exhibit of Dorset sheep at the
great Fair attracted much attention 10
this breed, and made some acquainted
with them who had never seen them
before. Itisa valuable breed and is
gaining friends wherever introduced.
—An experienced cultivator says
the expense of setting out and caring
for a quarterof an acre of strawberries
is not far from $10 a year, not count-
ing the plants, and these can be found
in abundance after the bed is once
started.
—Instead of wastiag time bemoan-
ing the low price of wheat, we know
some farmers who have wisely taken
the drug in values to mean that they
should give more attention to stock.
This is right, because it will help to-
ward growing better crops of whatever
you, may then undertake.
—The best field of cabbage grown
this season, in one section, was with-
out the use of manure. Commercial
fertilizers, applied at a cost of $10 per
acre, increased the yield of heads five
fold, by weight. The valueof the crop
is such that the cost of the fertilizer is
but a trifle compared with the gain in
weight of heads.
—When grain is held back for a
higher price there is a loss occurring
all the time. It will lose its weight by
shrinkage, and rats, mice and weevil
will destroy a portion, while there is
the loss of interest and the cost of stor-
age, and the price may go down instead
of increasing. Allof these risksshould
be coovsidered.
—The past geason witnessed the har-
vesting ot corn by machinery, and the
market for binder twine has been en-
larged. In addition to the corn har-
vester is anotber machine, which not
only husks the corn, but cuts up the
stalks at the same time. While corn
is sure to be cheaper in fature, there
will be less waste of the fodder.
—To keep cabbage so as to have
them convenient for use during the
winter, a grower suggests as follows :
Cut off the stalks and paci the heads
in a clean barrel, filling in with dry,
clean sawdust, as the cabbages are put
in. until the barrel is full, leaving a
good layer of sawdust on top. Set the
barrel in the barn or under shelter,
but not in a damp celler. They may
freeze, but it will do them no harm.
— Waste places can be advantageous
ly. used for trees. When a farmer has
too much land, and does not care to
sell, he should not allow it to grow up
in any sort of wood that may take pos-
gession, but plow the land and put out
young forest trees, in rows, and culti-
vate them the first year or two. Black
walnut and other valuable trees may be
grown. It isa process that more than
pays the interest on the Jand, and the
field may be used for cattle pasture a
portion of the time,
—The low price of wheat is due
largely to the ease with which it is
produced compared with a quarter of a
century ago. A boy can now sit on a
seat and do the work which formerly
required a dozen men to perform. Im-
proved machinery has made it possible
to produce more wheat than formerly
and at less cost. Farmers should di
versify their crops whenever possible,
and endeavor to grow something that
will give a greater return than wheat.
We have many climates and soils, and
there are greater opportunities for the
future than may be apparent.
—How many farmers go to the ex-
pense of overhauling the manure heap,
yet it is a necessity ; for down in the
centre of the heap, and near the bottom
is heat sufficient to permit of fermenta-
tion of the materials, while pear the
top the heap is cold and solid. When
the time comes for spreading this man-
ure, one portion will be coarse and
useless, while the other will be fine
and well-rotted. To properly manage
the heap it must be overhauled several
times, the coarser material placed be-
low and mixed with fresh manure and
liquids in order to reduce it. Every
hour's work on the manure heap is
well-bestowed, as the farmer can bring
the materials to a condition ready for
the immediate use of the crop, thus
saving time in the spring, as the man:
ure not rotten now must first rot 1n the
field before the plants can utilize it.
Not once or twice, but a dozen times,
if necessary, should the manure heap
be handled during the winter, so as to
make as much preparation for spring
as possible.

SIX MONTHS UNDER THREE DOCTORS.
NO BENEFIT. COMPLETELY CURED
IN 3 MONTHS BY CUTICURA.
Cuticura has been a blessing to me. My ba-
by was about four weeks old, when she first
got kezema. It was on her head and all over
her body, which was raw as a piece of meat. I
doctored for six months with three doctors
here, and she still kept getting worse. A lady
friend of mine advised me to get Cuticura Rem-
edies. They proved to be just as good as you
recommended. Baby was six months old
when I began to use Cuticura Remedies, and in
three months’ time she was cured. She is fif-
teen months old now, and is well and hearty.
I am very thankful,
MRS. RICHARD CROMPTON,
West Middlesex, Mercer Co., Pa.
There is more remedial power to one of your
cakes of Cuticura Soap than there isto some of
the three-dollar treatments of these dermatol-
ogists for the acne, fleshworms, ete. It has.
cured me of the above effection, and I think it
can cure others if they use it right and accord-
ing to directions.

“Castoria is an excellent medicine for chil-

good effect upon their children.”
Dr. G. C. Oscoop,
Lowell, Mass.
“Castoria is the best remedy for children of
which I am acquainted. I hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the real
interest of their children, and use Castoria in-
stead of the various quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones, by forcing opium,
morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats, thereby sending
them to premature graves.”

yet we are free to confess that the merits of
Castoria has won us to look with favor upon it,
