Farm Notes.
—Driving a horse in winter to give
it exercise 1s beneficial if not overdone,
but in such cases the horse should be
well rubbed down on his return and
covered with a light blanket until cool-
ed. Horses may take cold in the sta-
ble when brought in very warm, es-
pecially if cracks permit cold draughts
to enter. The blanket should always
be used on very cold days as a protec-
tion.
— Fertilizers of certain kinds, if not
applied in the fall, may be applied in
January. Ground bone cannot be put
on the ground too soon, as it dissolves
very slowly. Strawberries may re-
ceive such a fertilizer vow, with the
potash salts during February or March,
and the nitrates in April. If dissolved
bone is used in place of ground it will
be early enough to apply it in March.
—There is no advantage in retain-
in hogs at this season iu order to in-
increase their weight. Hogs are ex-
pensive at times, and should be con-
verted into pork just as soon as they
reach the proper stage. Growth is
more rapid in favorable seasons, and it
is then that the profit is made. The
larger the hog, the slower the gain in
Proportion to its weight.
—The time to trim grapevines is in
the winter. Such work should never
be postponed until spring, as the trim-
ming of the vines after the flow of sap
begins is sure to do harm. It is not
necessary to cut back severely, but in
trimming a grape vine it should be
done to give good appearance and at
the same time secure the best yields of
fruit.
—Many barns and stables which
permit cold draughts to come in
through cracks could be made more
comtortable at a small expense. A
dollar’s worth of thick paper, or a roll
of tarred felt, tacked securely to the
wall, would add greatly as a protection
against cold winds, ard could easily be
removed when summer approaches.
—1It is not how much feed an ani-
mal will eat, but how much feed can
be converted into some kind of product.
A heavy feeder is considered by some
as an objectionable animal, buat if the
animal yields largely of milk or butter,
it must be able to consume and digest
a large quantity of feed proportionate-
ly. l
. —TPotatoes canuot be grown profit |
ably for stock, but such a crop is one
of the best for market. Corn is worth
five times as much as potatoes for feed-
ing to stock, while its fodder is also a
large item. As a rule, however, pota-
toes usually bring more in price than
the actual nutritive value contained in
them.
—Do not keep the cream too long or
the butter will be bitter. Old cream
and fresh cream should not be mixed.
When churning the cream the tem-
perature should be regulated by warm
or cold water, as necessary. If the
conditions are correct the butter should
come quickly.
—A good place to throw the wood
ashes is around the peach trees. Old
bones, that are apparently useless, cao
be pounded and buried around the
grapevines. Refuse material and
scrapings from the woodpile are ser-
viceable if used as a mulch around any
kind of trees.
—-A writer says he knows a man
who made $35,000 breeding and feeding
swine, but he did not know ewough to
stick to the business. He is now a
pauper. The hog is a better friend to
the pocketbook, years together, than
almost any other stock.
—As soon as the lambs come in they
must have plenty of milk. Each ewe
and her lamb must be observed. If
nourishment is lacking the lamb will
not thrive. Ground oats make the
best food for young lambs that are eat-
ing at the trough.
—Some of the best known varieties
of blackberries were introduced by
transplanting from the woods. Many
a large fruited sort is met with which
would, if transplanted to the garden, be
as good as any of the cultivated sorts
now in use.
—Warm water given early in the
morning is invigorating to the cows,
and serves to ward off the cold during
severe weather. When ice-cold water
is used the cow is chilled, as the water
drank must be warmed by the body.
—Observe regular hours in feeding,
says a writer. The stock that is fed at
stated times soon learn not to look for
feed at any other time and is more con-
tented than it would be if fed whenever
it comes bandiest.
—A stack of straw may bea con-
venient thing for the cattle to pick, but
it is better to feed it in the rack, as
they will trample and waste it when
turned at liberty on the straw stack.
—The records show that the United
States now export annually about 25,-
000 pounds less cheese than 15 or 16
years ago. Last year showed a furth-
er decrease.
—-One of the most highly-relished
foods for poultry is the sweepings from
the hay loft. The hens will not only
utilize the seeds but will consume the
dry leaves of clover also.
— Don’t get the idea that high color-
of butter can make an inferior grade
bring a first-class price. It won’t work
on the same customer but once.
—1It is said that one hundred sheep
1egularly folded will fertilize eight
acres of land in one year so as to In-
crease the yield 100 per cen’.
—A clean stall makes a clean cow,
and a clean cow makes clean milk, and
clean milk makes good butter,
Washington, D.C.—Special Excursions

There is probably no place that offers
so much in the way of sight-seeing and
other things of general interest as Wash-
ington, D.C. Apart from being the
) Nation’s Capitel, the magnificent Gov-
ernment Buildings, beautifully planned
public parks, and the country through
which one passes in journeying to
Washington would make the trip an
ideal one.

every one to visit Washington at a very
reasonable out lay the Pennsylvania
Railroad company has acranged for

——Hood’s Sarsaparilia Calender for 1935 is
out and may be obtained at the drug stores.
It is" one of the most beautiful that the firm
has ever issued and the edition was the largest
ever printed by any one concern, being over
ten millions of copies. There are two faces
on the calender, both of children representing
“Summer and “Winter.” The design was by
one of the most gifted artists in the country,
and the coloring is most exquisite. The cal-
endar is not only beautiful, but it is also use-
ful, as it presents all the desired information
concerning astronomical events during the
year. If your druggist does nov have Hood's
Sarsaparilla Calendar it may be obtained by
sending six cents in stamps to C. I. Hood &
Co., Lowell, Mass.

In Memoriam,
Death was again invaded Lodge No. 410 I. O,
0. F. at Milesburg, and claimed one of our
oldest Pass Grand in the person of James
Teller, aged 76 years. It has pleased God in
his wise providence to remove from amongst
| us our aged brother, we bow sub-missively to
| his will. Therefore be it.
Resolved that we the members of Bald Eagle
Lodge No. 410 sincerely mourn his loss, but
hope to meet him again in the eternal home.
Resolved that this Lodge extends to the
family of our brother our heartfelt sympathy
| in this their sad bereavement.
| Resolved that our charter be draped for the
| period of thirty days, and a copy of these min-
utes be sent to the family and published in
| the county papers. :

Wholesale Poisoning Attempted.
SCRANTON, Pa., January 6 —Mrs.
Michael Worman, of Forest City, a
borough just over the Susquehanna
county line, was arrested yesterday and
committed to jail charged with attempt-
ing to poison her husband, his father
and mother, and one boarder, by put-
ting paris green in their food. When
taken before a magistrate she confessed
her guilt and made startling revelations,
which are withheld from the public.
Mr. and Mrs. Worman had been mar-
ried but three months. The woman
says she was forced by her parents to
marry the man against her will and
hated him intensely.
——There is good reason for the
popularity of Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy. Davis & Buzard, of West
Monterey, Clarion Co., Pa., say: “It
has cured people that our physicians
could do nothing for, We persuaded
them to try a bottle of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy and they now recom-
mend it with the rest of us.” 25 and
50 cent bottles for sale by F. P. Green.
— Claus Spreckels recently drew a
check on a San Francisco bank for
$1,500,000 and it was cashed as readily
as if it had been a laundry bill.

we urge all who suffer from this dis-
ease to give this medicine a trial.
