Farm Notes.
—Don’t wait until you build the big
barn betore sheltering the cows. Build
the shelter for them, and they will
help you build the barn.
—Breed well, and when you have a
heifer calf as the result of such breed-
ins feed well and train properly, and
you will have a good cow.
—There is no better crop for the win-
ter feeding of sheep than oats and peas
mixed. It is very nutritious, and is
eaten with avidity by the sheep.
—The shrinkage of value of horses
last year is estimated to be over $25,
000.000, and the total loss in falling off
of prices will no doubt aggregate $60,
000.000 since the commencement of
the present depression of values.
—Wheat bran and middlings should
never be omitted from the ground
grain ration of cows, as both substances
are rich in mineral matter, and are in-
dispeusable in some cases, especially
where milk is daily sold off the farm.
—Where the heos are allowed to
roam over the barnvards and fields
they pick up many waste substances,
even in winter, but in cold weather
they should have at least one pint of
shelled corn twice a day for every 12
hens,
—The Southern States produced
nearly 50,000.000 more bushels of corn
in 1893 than in 1894, the greatest in-
crease being in the Gult States: It is
proposed to send a carload of corn
from Georgia to Nebraska to relieve
those who lost their crops from
drought.
—In feeding grain to cheep feed a
small quantity often. Keep them in
the dry, and give them all the salt they
want. This will have much to do with
the prevention of scratches. The farm-
er who raises his own sheep wili find it
profitable to market them as soon as
possible.
—The time has passed when fruit
and vegetables can be told by the ap-
pearance of the specimens on the top.
Shippers may rely upon it that all
barrels and boxes are inspected by the
commission merchants and the cus-
tomers. They have been taught by
experience to be cantious.
—Professor Bailey, of Cornell Exper-
iment Station, recommends from 500
to 700 pounds of muriate of potash and
300 to 500 pounds of plain superphos
phate per acre as annual top-dressing
for mature orchards, Nitrogen is sel-
dom needed, he says, and is too apt to
force a growth of too much wood.
Neglected implements and dull tools
add more expense and labor than may
be necessary. To eave time and labor
is to save money. During the winter
season all tools and implements should
be put in complete order. When the
plowing eeason comes in the spring
work will be pressing and the tools
will be used at a loss.
—If a horse balks, do not whip him,
but let him stop and think it over. Af-
ter a little reflection;and a few tosses
ot the head he will often start of his
voliation. Talk to him kindly, pet
him, loosen a strap or a buckle, and he
may forget his obstinate spell. An ap-
ple or a bunch of grass from the road-
side may win him.
—1It usually pays best to kill pigs by
the time they weigh 150 pounds, and
from that up to 200. If allowed to
grow much heavier than this the cost
of food in proportion to gain is increas-
ed, except when the hogs become too
sluggish and fat to take exercise, but
after that the gain is at the expense
of healthfulness of the meat when
killed.
—A large majority of the weeds that
spring up are anouals, and come from
seeds, although there are others that
grow from roots and are also produced
from seeds. To get rid of weeds it is
only necessary not to allow them to
produce seed. If this is done every
year they are sure to be exterminated,
but it must be the object to destroy
every one.
—It is not safe to grow special crops
only. Wet seasons or droughts may
cause a total loss. Diversified farming
does not entail a risk of loss of the en:
tire year’s work. Famine occurs more
in those sections where dependence is
placed almost exclusively upon a sin-
glecrop. There are always some
crops that can be secured, although all
others may be a total loss.
--A good dairy cow is one that has
bad excellent training. The disposi
tion is very important, as the most
profitable cow may be a source of an-
noyance if she is cross or unmanage-
able. The heifer is the future cow,
and her training cannot begin too ear-
ly. A kicking cow is always a men-
ace, and there is liability of injury
from her at any time, and when least
expected.
—How much can be raised on one
acre depends on how much work can
be bestowed. It would not be an easy
matter for one man to cultivate an
acre with the view ot having it pro
duce to its utmost capacity. In tact,
the pessibilities of what an acre will do
cannot be kcown. With labor un-
stinted and the free use of fertilizers
the yield can be made enormous.
—The foulest seed sold ie that of red
clover. All sorts of weed ,seeds may
be found in it, and much of the seed it-
self is not sound, It is not inferred
that such seed is sold with the object
of imposition, but as much of it comes
from different sources it is difficult to
secure clean seed. The clover seed is
a very small bean, and is easily distin-
guished with a high magnifying power.
It will pay to look the seed over before
the busy season comes, It is cheaper
to do so than to battle with weeds.

A Reasonable Demand.
The sympathies aud indorsemeut of
| the nation will go out to the wife of an
| Indiana tarmer who has struck her
husband for some money. For forty
years she bas worked with her hus-
band to save money, make the farming
a success and to buy more land. Final
ly the busband had a chance to sell
his acres for which both had toiled
equally. Then the wife made a strike.
Betore she signed the deed by which
her husband was to get $40,000, she
demanded $20 for her own use. If
she could not get it the deed would not
go. No twenty dollars for her, no
forty thousaud for the old man.
We glory in the old lady's spunk
and only wish her more power to her
strike for a percentage. She based it
on the assertion that in forty years she
had never had a cent that she could
call her own, and now that the holder
of the purse had made a sale by which
be had got into easy financial circum-
stances she was determined to expe-
rience the wild delight of having twen-
ty dollars to spend as she chose, or no
sale. In view of the fact that the
money could not be got without her
signature, we take it for granted that
she got the money and only wish that
she had struck for ten times as much..
The ridiculous disparity between her
deserts and her demauds has its pathet-
ic side as an example of the wife's
immolation on the altar of the bus
band’s prosperity. It is satisfactory to
believe that such cases are in the
minority. The average American re-
gpects himeelf too much nou to share
his tortunes as well as his labors with
his wife. But there are many cases of
patient, hardworking women who
have toiled through an uncomplaining
life to augment the tamily prosperity,
without ever having had the control
of the slightest share of the savings.
In nine cases out of ten the wife does as
much to secure prosperity as the hus-
band. When she gets a chance to
strike for a percentage on the funds,
we glory in her spunk even if she de-
mands a glorious and reckless dissipa-
tion in shopping to the amouut of
twenty dollars, :
The Coal Mining Industry.
The character and extent of the coal
mining industry are not generally
known and appreciated, remarks the
Commercial Gazette. Even in West-
ern Pennsylvania, the heart of the great
bituminous coal region, it will surprise
some persons to learn that not a single
manufacturing industry employs as
many persons as are engaged in coal
mining throughout the country. In
1889, the last year for which we have
complete statistics, 399,650 persons
were employed in mining coal. No
other mining industry employed 100,-
000. Tron ore production employed but
88,706, not quite one eighth as many ;
gold and silver production together but
about one sixth ; lead not one tenth,
and even the quarrying of ail kinds of
stone only about one third.
As to other branches of labor lumber
mills gave work to 286,197 hands,
which is second only to coal in point of
numbers of employes. The second man-
ufacturing industry in rank on the basis
of employes is foundry and machine
shops, the third clothing manufacting
and the fourth cotton goods. Coal min-
ing employs 100,000 more persons than
boot and shoe making including factory
and custom work and repairing 200,000
more than furniture making 150,000
more than iron and steel furnaces and
rolling mills, 200,000 more than the
manufacture of cigars and cigarettes 80,-
000 more thau the manufacture of calico
goods, 175,000 more than woolen and
worsted mills and 250,000 more than the
manufacting of silk and silk goods.
These facts show how vast the coal
mining industry is in comparison with
other businesses, and how very essential
it is that it should be kept as free as possi-
ble from suspensions and other disturb-
ances. The fuel of the people and the
motive power which keeps other great
industries in motion can only be obtain-
ed through the exertions of those who
operate the mines. Then they are over
a million and a half of people who de-
pend on mining for a livelihood. Those
engaged therein form a very large por-
tion of the aggregate population.
The Short Days.
Since December 21, which was the
shortest day, the time between sunrise
and sunset has been increasing but very
little. This almost imperceptible in-
crease will last until about January 21,
when the sun will come in view but one
minute earlier, and sink beneath our
sight 34 minutes later, making the dif-
ference only 35 minutes from the time
of the shortest day. Then, however,
daylight will rapidly lengthen.
——4One of the most difficult habits
to cure is that of drinking vinegar,”
said Dr. L. C. Aiken, at the Emery.
“A good many woman drink vinegar
for the complexion, and in some cases
it creates a craving for it even more in-
satiable than that for liquor. As the
habit grows the victim is no longer
contented with the ordinary vinegar,
but demands it stronger until he drinks
acetic acid with very little dilation.
It burns out the stomach within a very
few years, and it is s2sldom that a vine:
gar fiend lives even funtil middle age.
It can be detected by the peculiar pal-
Jor of the countenance, but no antidote
has ever heen discovered by which the
habit can be cared.”
——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.
——Wickwire—I tell you, old boy,
there’s nothing like a baby to brighten
up a man’s home.

The Check Rein.
Kindly allow me to address this open
letter to a family physician concerning
the treatment of his “horse, the noblest
animal God has giveth for the use of
mankind. I hope this will induce oth-
ers who are equally thoughtless to give
the subject tollowing a proper consider-
ation.
The horse T refer tois owned bya
doctor who should be and I believe is
thoroughly familiar with the anatomy
of man and must naturally be more
conversant with that of the lower ani-
mals. The subject I wish to talk about
is the reins in use by heartless and
thoughtless persons. I have frequently
seen horses having their heads tied up
in the unnatural position these reins
put them, standing for hours tied to a
post unube to place their head in a
comfortable position, unable to reach
their breast to dislodge a fly, the rein
pulling on the upper jaw, holding it
firmly from going downward, the
hitching strap drawing on the lower
jaw at every movement of the head.
How I wish I could place the inven-
tor and maker of that rein and owner or
driver of the horse in the same position.
It would not be long until they would
say “I never thought I was guilty of
placing a horse in such misery.”
Doctor, I see you have a new horse
this morning a nice noble looking horse.
He seems to be a little nervous. I think
it is on account of being reined up too
tight. He cannot place his head in a
natural position.
“No, I think not, I am using the
overhead rein. It is the kind used and
seems to be fashionable.”
Doctor, let us discuss this ina practi-
cal way. Let us be boys once more,
and play horse ; instead of having one
bit we will use two and the overhead
rein, because it is fashionable. First
we will put a belt around you with a
hook to secure the end of the rein. Let
me see your mouth. Yes, it just suits.
You havetwo teeth out in the back
part of your upperjaw. This will en-
able me to place the extra bit on the
gums and roof of the mouth precisely
as used on a horse. It may be painful,
but you are a horse now and have no
say in the matter. Now I will place
the rein over the top of your head and
draw it down tight and elevate your
head sd you will look well. You may
get tired holding your head in this posi-
tion ; the leather strap that holds the
bit may pinch your upper lip tightly
against your jaw. You told me last
winter that tbe mouth of an animal is a
great nerve centre.
The rein over the top of your head
will give you a knock on the head at
every step the same as it does a horse
when he walks, as you will notice by
the jerk on the rein at each step. You
may desire to lean your head forward
when you go up a hill ; this cannot be
allowed as you are a horse. You may
not be able to see where you are going
to step by reason of having yout head
held thus. You may turn your eye-
balls in a way that may give you pain
trying to see close to you, but you are a
horse. Now doctor I have been one of
your patients and you have attended
my family. You will do so no more
while your torture your horse with a
tom fool check rein.—One of your pa-
tients.
Men and Women in New York.
The census reveals some curious facts
about the distribution of New York's
excess of women. New York city has
20,000 of them ; Brooklyn 17,000 ; Al-
bany, 5500 ; Troy 5000 ; Utica, 3000 ;
Rochester, 4000 ; Syracuse 1100. They
are ull, practically, in the larger cities
of the State, the one exception being
Buffalo, which has 4000 more men than
women. It would be interesting to
know more about these 4000 superflu-
ous Buffalo men, whether they are Po-
lacks, Italians, lake sailors, canal-boat- |
men, or merely lively young bachelors
from the country in the western part of
the State who have gone to Buffalo to
seek their fortunes. New York city’s
business opportunities which attract
crowds of men, seem to attract quite as
many women. Yet the excess of
women in New York is comparatively
small. The city has 45 women to every
44 men, while Brooklyn has 26 women
to every 25 men, and Troy 11 women
to every 10 men. Why should it hap-
pen that in the suburban counties
nearest New York there should te more
men than women ? It would seem that
of the population drawn by the metro-
polis to this end of the State the unmar-
ried men would nearly all live in the
cities, and the dwellers in the suburbs
would for the most part be people with
families. Yet the suburban counties
all show an excess of men—1300 in
Westchester, 1700 in Richmond, and
2300 in Queens.
— One feature of the big contract
obtain by the Bethlehem Iron Works
for the two new Russian battle ships, as
just disclosed by the return of Lieut.
Meigs, 1s the time of delivering the
armor. The entire 1,500 tons must be
in St. Petersburg within one year from
the receipt of the drawings, and 600 of
it within the first seven months, It is
true that the armor is not to be Harvey-
ized, which will be a saving in tire,
but four-fifths of it is very heavy, being
16 inches thick. When it is remember-
ed what trouble used to vex our own
shipbuilders from the delays in armor,
it is seen that a great advance has been
made in celerity of work by the Bethle-
hem foundry.
Certainly it is a great trinmph for an
American establishment to beat four
French firms, three British, two Ger-
man, and one Russian in bidding for
the armor of Russian, vessels, consider-
ing that there is all the difference, to its
disadvantage, of the ocean to cross with
its heavy products. But it is worth
while for Congress, before our armor-
making works become fully engaged on
foreign tasks, to enlist their services for
our own needs. Within a few months
both the Bethlehem and the Carnegie
works will have completed all their con-
tracts for our navy, and one, two, or
three new battle ships should be laid
down at the earliest practicable date.

Ex-Sheriff of Ulster County.
Hon. Davis Winne Owes His Health to Dr. Da
vid Kennedy's Favorite Remedy.
SHANDAKEN, N. Y.—One of the
most prominent men in Ulster county
is the Hon. Davis Winne, of this town.
His reputation is not confined alone to
this county, where he held the office of
Sheriff for three years, he was also this
districts representative in the New York
State Legislature. For years Mr.
Winne has been suffering from a com-
plicated case of kidney and bladder
trouble and congestion of the liver.
Upon the advice of friends he decided
to try Dr. Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy.
He was not disappointed, for in a short
while after he began its use, he was in
better health than he had been in years
before.
In speaking of Favorite Remedy, Mr.
Winne said : “It hasdone more for me
than all the physicians I ever employed,
and I most unhesitatingly recommend it
toany one suffering from kidney, liver or
urinary troubles, for it will cure them.
Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is
the acknowledged specific tor all dis-
eases arising from acidity of the blood,
and will cure dyspepsia, rheumatism,
scrofula, eczema, kidney, liver and
urinary troubles.
You can not afford to trifle with
health and life. Putting off treatment
when dangerous symptoms exist is only
slow suicide. Accept the aid of Dr.
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy ; it has re-
stored thousands to health and strength.

Dakota affords the latest illustration of
practical Populism. He seizes and
carries off $250,000, or thereabouts, of
the money raised by taxing other citi-
zens of South Dakota. This is, on the
whole, a simpler method of rearranging
the impact of taxation than the Income
Tax plan.

exclusive salesroom ever used in this town, as
heretofore the custom has been to sell goods

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

16x74 teet and the store 20x60 added makes #
the largest establishment of its kind outside
of Philadelphia and Pittsburg.
