Farm Notes.
—The secret of getting all there is
out of a good honey flow is to havea
large force of young bees, from 15 to 20
days old, in readiness for it. Go into
winter quarters with as many young
bees as possible.
—At this season when the hens ap-
pear droopy, and have swelled heads
and eyes, the cause is due to draughts
of air in the poultry house, which may
be traced toa top ventilator or to
cracks and crevices in the walls.
—Cottonseed meal is not only a ex-
cellent addition to the ration, but it is
a fertilizer as well, It is better to use
a proportion of linseed meal with
the cottonseed meal, as the two com-
bined are better than cottonseed meal
alone.
—An excellent way to keep cab-
bages is to put them in a row close to-
gether, roots in the ground deep, and
then turn a furrow of earth over them.
They will keep better this way than
when the heads are down and the roots
up.
—Notwithstanding the fact that so
much of our finer wool is imported, no-
where are the climatic conditions more
favorable to production than in Ameri-
ca. There is no end to the variety of
wool of the sheep grower in these val-
leys and hille.
—Bees need from 25 to 30 pounds of
stores upon which to winter. Some
winters they will go through on 10
pounds or less, but even 35 pounds was
found to be insufficient in some in-
stances last winter. Feed good eugar
syrup, if necessary.
——Horses are now being shipped
from this country to Europe and our
exports of horses exceed, in value,
those imported. Formerly we bought
a great many horses from Europe for
purposes of improvement, but Europe
18 now drawing on us for horses for the
same purpose.
—A small greenhouse or hotbed will
afford many luxuries in winter. In
some seclions tomatoes are planted in
deep hotbeds, covered with glass in
spring, the hotbeds being covered on
the approach of cold weather. A few
plants thus treated keep up a late sup-
ply.
Every pound of food given should
have its definite aim and purpose---sus-
taining an increase of weight in our
working horses ; increase in weight of
stock fed for the market ; increase of
the vroduct of milk, butteror wool we
hope to get. There must be first
knowledge and then system.
--That some branches of the fruit
industry are not overdone is proved by
the fact that we last year imported
four million dollars’ worth of lemons,
despite the fact that we have more than
sufficient territory adopted to lemon
growing, and for the production of all
that our markets demand.
—Seed cannot germinate between
clods ; light must be excluded, and
fine soil must be close about the seed
from the beginning. Subsequent cul-
tivation will not atone for the neglect.
A roller is, therefore, a necessity ; clay
clods will go through the harrow teeth,
however thoroughly 1t is used.
—If a man is a good grain or grass
grower, that fact will stand him in
hand just as well in growing these pro
ducts for feeding as if they were going
directly to the market, and in manu-
facturing them into meat upon the
farm he can get the ultimate profit
from his knowledge of both branches of
his business.
——When gathered from the field,
squashes should be placed in a cool,
dry room and kept there until freezing
weather approaches. Then remove
them to what might be termed a warm
and dry room. Itis difficult to keep
them during the entire winter without
more or less trouble from rot ; yet such
varieties as the Hubbard and Turban
may bs preserved for quite a long per-
iod after harvesting.
—The varieties of fruits and vegeta-
bles in the city markets are not always
the best in quality, vnless from near
by localities. Those from a distance
are grown with mcre regard to thew
keeping and shipping qualities than
for flavor and sweetness. The water.
melons chipped from Georgia are of
the Kolb’s Gem variety which bears
transportation well, For home use a
variety known as the Rattlesnake,
which is ot excellent quality and flavor,
but cannot be sent a long journey to
market.
—-Since the public tess made at
Chicago, in butter production, with the
selected cows of Guernseys, Jerseys
and shorthoros, the private tests have
not given such enormous productions,
The public tests demonstrated that
there were limits beyond which cattle
ot the breeds named could not pass,
and that the previous claims of enor-
mous production could rightly be
doubted as due to error or improper
management. We no longer have
claims of 30 and 40 pounds of butter
produced in one week from those
breeds.
—The most difficult matter is to
teach farmers to raise their heifer
calves. They can never expect to have
healthy herds until they doso. Ti
they buy their cows they may bring
disesse in the berd unknowingly. It
may require two or three years to raise
a heifer call, which appears to be a
loss of time, but if the calf is &ired by
a thoroughbred s're, of a choice breed,
it will soon pay for itsalf ani be a
source o! reveoue for years. uae good
cow is worthy two or three poor ones,
and grod ones can only be obtainad by |
raising them or paying high prices for |
them.
If the Czar Should Die, What Then ?
The Czar is evideatly dying. The re-
ports from many quarters, all of them
apparently authoritative, agree in effect
that a grave change has taken place in
his condition‘ and that the end is near.
In a few days at the most the Autocrat
of all the Russias will be gathered to his
fathers ; and, what then? This is the
question which finds expression from a
bundred thousand lips, and which is
agitating a million minds.
In most of the countries of Europe
the succession to the throne has ceased
bean event to be anticipated with alarm.
Constitutious and Parliaments bar the
way to sudden changes in their laws
and in their domestic and foreign poli-
cies. The Kingdom of Spain suffers no
inconvenience from the fact that she is
ruled by a baby King. In Russia the
Czar’s power is unlimited. He is the
State. His unrestrained ‘I‘ will it” is
the law. His Ministers are his creat-
ures, and at his command his armed
millions, including the hordes of Cos-
sacks and Turkoman barbarians, can be
set in motion against civilized Europe
or sent forth to the conquest of Asia.
The character and predilections of the
successor to Alexander III are, there-
fore, a matter of supreme interest.
On this score very littleis known of
the heir apparent, the young Czare-
witch Nicholas. He is said to be kindly
disposed toward England on the one
hand, and to be an admirer of his cousin
the Kaiser, on the other. But he is
also supposed to suffer from ill health
and a weak constitution. It is a ques-
tion whether he has the fortitude of will
to resist the influence of one or the oth-
er factions into which the military and
governing classes of Russia are divided.
Will he be guided by those whose poli-
cy it is to maintain peace and slowly
develop the material resources of the
Empire, or will he fall into the hands
of the Pau Sclavists, with their hatred
of Western civilization and lust of con-
quest ?
The death of the Czar may import
nothing, or it may prove the beginning
of a world-wide political catastrophe.
At the present moment no answer is
possible to Europe's tremulous ‘what
then ?”’
——There is no medicine so often
needed in every home and so admirably
adapted to the purposes for which it is
intended, as Chamberlain’s Pain Balm.
Hardly a week passes but some member
of the family has’'need of it. A tooth-
ache or headache may be curad by it
A touch of rheumatism or neuralgia
quieted. The severe pain of a burn or
scald promptly relieved and the sore
healed in much less time than when
medicine has to be sent for. A sprain
may be promptly treated before inflam-
mation sets in, which insures a cure in
about one-third of the time otherwise re-
quired. Cuts and bruises should re-
ceive immediate treatment before the
parts become swollen, which can only
be done when Pain Balm is kept at
hand. A sore throat may be cured be-
fore it becomes serious. A troublesome
corn may be removed by applying it
twice a day for a week or two. A lame
back may be cured and several days of
valuable time saved or a pain in the
side or chest relieved without paying a
doctor bill. Procure a 50 cent bottle at
once and you will never regret it. For
sale by F. P. Green.
Filed More Objections.
S. Woods Caldwell, ot Lock Haven, |
Tuesday filed objections in the Dauphin
county court to the nomination papers
of Matt Savage, of Clearfield. The ob-
jections allege that the qualified electors
signing the papers represent the Demo-
cratic party or policy ; that the Baker
ballot law has been violated in the use
on the nomination papers of the political
appellation identical with that used in
certificates of nomination, and that the
Savage nomination papers are irregular,
illegal and void.
—— The trade in spirits distilled from
grain is threatened by the introduction
of a French method in Nebraska of dis-
tilling pure spirits from the molasses
manufactured from the sugar beet. It
is believed this will give a decided im-
petus to the sugar beet industry. The
spirits made from molasses are declared
superior to the spirits distilled from corn
or wheat. But as yet there is no imme-
diate necessity in the public giving up
its faith in old rye or the Bourbon ex-
tract of corn.

be made in the large room, formerly occupied
by Harper Bros., on Spring street. It 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 can be
nicely aisplayed and still kept away from
heat aud dust, the enemies of long wear in
leather. 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
