—Wax beans may be planted even
as late as this month, and will give a
supply, if frost does pot appear too
early in the fall,
—1If you can grow any meat ata
profit it is lamb. It is universally con-
sidered a delicacy, and brings the
highest price of all meals.
—Cut back the young raspberry
canes when they are three feet high
and they will bave stronger branches
than if cut back when full grown.
—Poullry that is to be used on the
table, if confined and fed on corn and
clean water a few days, will be found
to have the flesh sweet, juicy and ten-
der.
—1If an animal enters the winter in
a thin or debilitated condition it will
cost too much to get it in good health
again. Now is the time to feed it lib-
erally.
—From the Atlantic to the Pacific
the red raspberry extends acroes the
north portion of the country. The
black cap extends a few hundred miles
further south.
— Cattle should not be shipped di-
rectly from the pasture. The more
rank and rapid the grass growth, the
softer the stock. They should be fed
some corn at the last.
—To make boxes which will hold a
level bushel slate or boards may be us-
ed, and they will be found very con-
venient. Make each box 14} by 16%
inches, and 124 inches deep.
—TFor the squash vine borer there is
no certain remedy, but for the squash
bug use Scotch snuff three parts and
insect powder one part, well mixed,
and dust the mixture on and around
the vines.
Try sowing crimson clover this
month as an experiment. It will grow
on light or heavy soil. Brush the seed
in, and use plenty of it. The best fer-
tilizer for it at this season is wood
ashes or lime,
Celery plants will not stand drought.
If the plot is a small one, and will not
entail too much labor by so doing, use
the soapsuds from the family washing
along the rows. Soapsuds is benefi-
cial to both celery and asparagus.
—The fruit trees planted in the fall
will do better than when heeled in
during the winter season, in case the
planting is well dove. It will get an
early start in the spring, when most of
the farm work is hurrying.
A thin horse added 100 pounds to
his weight in a month when fed three
pints of molasses on clover hay daily.
There is danger of resultant indiges-
tion, and care must be taken, but it
will make horses sleek and fat.
--A good start for a young animal
is important. It should not be com-
pleted to procure all of its food from
the pasture. A ration of ground oats
at night will be found an economical
way of keeping it growing and in good
condition.
—Onions will not be grown until
next spring, but the best time to pre-
pare the onion ground is in the fall.
Plow the plot, spread manure thickly,
and harrow it in. The land will be in
prime condition for the crop when the
onion season comes.
—Do not burn anything that can be
added to the manure heap with advan-
tage, or which can be plowed under.
When a substance is destroyed by fire
only the mineral matter remains. Ex-
ception mav be made to this rule,
however, it it is intended to destroy de-
structive insects, for which purpose all
heaps of rubbish should be burned.
—The young suckers, or shoots,
which start up at the base of a young
tree, deprive the tree of its wnourish-
ment, and they should be removed as
soon as they appear. If this is done
by observing the trees daily they can
be rubbed off with the hand. A great
many youog trees are stunted by allow-
ing shoots from the roots to grow to
the height of a foot or more before
they are cut away.
—The skim milk from one cow is
estimated to be worth $20 a year. So
far as its actual proportion of putri-
tions matter is concerned itis more
valuable than cream, because it con-
tains the protein and mineral matter.
Its value on the farm depends on the
use to which it is applied. Tt should
furnish sustenance for two pigsin a
year if used in connection with clover
and grain.
—DBlack koot on plum and cherry
trees prevails wherever those trees are
grown. It can be prevented if all fruit
growers will work together to extir-
pate it. Ohio has a law against it,
which should prove beneficial. It is
as much a matter of legislation as the
destruction of thistles, against which
many of the States have passed laws,
making it an offence to allow them to
grow.
—DUroughts have prevailed both this
year and last. Up to the period of the
excessive rains of last May the rainfall
during the winter, which is then ue-
ually most abundant in this section,
was not up to the average. Since the
overpour of rain the season has been
very dry, and the beginning of August
is about the time for breaking the
drought, which sometimes extends
through Jaly. The drought prevails
in those sections this season where
there is the least timber. There is
room for investigation in the matter of
the prolonged drought this season.

unpleasant effects. In vials, convenient

Notes from the Pennsylvania Experiment Station.
VARIETIES OF WHEAT.
In 1894, forty-four different varieties |
of wheat were tested at the Pennsyl-
vania State College Agricultural Ex-
periment Station. They were grown
under as nearly similar conditions of
soil, exposure, fertilizers, culture, etc.,
as possible, and the yields given in the
table below are computed from careful

weights of the product of the different
plots, made at the time of threshing.
Twenty-six of these varieties have been
tested for the past five years and the
average yield is shown in the table—the
varieties being arranged in the order of
their productiveness during this time.

From the above it will be seen that
in 1894 the Reliable led with ‘a’yield of
38 bushels per acre and weighed 61%
pounds per struck bushel. Ontario
‘Wonder is second, with a yield of 36.6
bushels per acre and weighing 57 pounds
per struck bushel. Following this in the
order named are Rudy, Canada Wonder
and Fulcaster.

“Several years ago, my blood was in bad con-

eral health very much impaired. My hands
were covered with large sores, discharging all
the time. I had no strength nor energy and
my feelings were miserable in the extreme.
At last, I commenced taking Ayer’s Sarsapa-
rilla and soon noticed a change for the better.
My appetite returned and with it, renewed
strength. Encouraged by these results, I
kept on taking the Sarsaparilla, till I had used
six bottles, and my health was restored.”—A.

—— Recently the assayer of the
Denver mint had the “tailings” of the
mint washed out. Whenever the mint
is cleaned up the sweepings and dust
are carefully “washed” to obtain the
gold and refuse thrown into a bin back
of the mint. These tailings have been
accumulating for eome years. It took
a man thirty-eight days to wash them
out, and he took out of them $3.000
worth of gold. The assayer has re-
fused $1,000 for what is left, saying
that he means to smelt it, and expects,
to get at Jeast $2,000.

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

with glass cases in which the harness can be
nicely aisplayed and still kept away from

16x74 feet and the store 20x60 added makes it
the largest establishment of its kind outside
