Farm Notes.
—Never use cross-bred fowls if you
can get pure breeds, When a farmer
begins to cross his flocks he soon gets
down to scrubs.
—Ifan old hen's eyes are bright and
her comb is tremulous and her move-
ments quick, she is not past her use-
fulness, says an authority.
—TIt will not pay to have a single
tree upon the farm that cannot receive
special attention, and all trees that are
not worth special care had better be
removed. !
—Green bones, cut fine, are more
suitable for laying hens at this season
than grain, and will enable the fowls
to produce more eggs than when grain
is used.
—If you have any space at all to
spare, and your soil is suitable, plant a
kill or two of watermelons. They will
be a luxury later on in the season, and
can be grown at a small cost.
—Stir the ground after each rain
with the harrow or cultivator, and
baking of the soil will be prevented,
and the land kept loose on the top soil,
80 as to absorb more moisture from
the next rain.
—Many farmers buy euperphos-
phate because it is a fertilizer, and are
content with it. A fertilizer, to be ef-
ficacious, should contain nitrogen, pot-
ash and phosphoric acid, according to
the requirements of the crop and soil.
It is seldom that the use of one sub-
stance alone gives satisfactory results.
—Oil is the cheapest substance to
use on the farm just now, as it saves
wear of implements. Have several
oil cans at convenient points, so as not
to be compelled to hunt for one. Neg-
lect to use a cent’s worth of oil may
cause a loss of several dollars. Oil al-
go saves labor by rendering the work-
ing of the implements much easier.
—When nature makes an egg she
places the proper amount of moisture
in it for a perfect hatch ; therefore, a
fresh egg hatches better than an old
one, as the moisture is constantly es-
caping through the shell. The object
of the incubator should be to supply
heat ; pay no attention to ventilation
or moisture until chickens are about to
hatch.
—When a few days old, separate the
goslings from the mother and place in
a movable pen, giving them plenty of
water, bread crumbs and milk thick-
ened with shorts or bran, Place the
pen where the supply of grase is
abundant. They will feather out in
about six weeks and then can be al
lowed to go swimming with the rest of
the flock.
— Last year horses were cheap, and
farmers declared that never again
would good prices be obtained, as
there was less demand in the cities
since electricity supplanted the car
horses. The farmers who continued to
breed horses, however, made no mis-
take, for already prices for work hors-
es have gone up, and will continue to
increase.
—When the thermometer is up in
the nineties and the rays of the sun are
severe it is just the time to kill weeds.
They may take root and live if the soil
is cool and damp, but when they are
turned up and exposed to the dry heat
of a warm summer day they are de-
stroyed as if with fire. Any work in
killing weeds during the severe weather
will be amply repaid.
—During extremely warm weather
the worlk horses should be watered fre-
quently, even if they receive but two or
three swallows at atime, or have their
mouths swabbed after reaching the
end of a row or two. Horses lose
much water irom their bodies and re:
quire water in consequence. Feed
very little corn during excessively
warm weather, as it is very heating.
—Turnips for stock should be made
a special crop, and the summer is the
time to grow them. As late as July,
50 as to use the new crop of turnip seed
is the usual period of the year for
planting turnips, but to excel with
them the ground should be prepared
now. Plow and spread well-rotted
manure. Then let the weeds sprout
and use the cultivator. By this plan
the weeds will be killed out before the
land is seeded.
—Sloppy food 1m summer is excel-
lent for sows and pigs, but experienced
breeders no longer feed filthy swill.
When swill is placed in a barrel and
allowed to ferment and sour it
becomes impregnated with disease
germs, and, although the pigs may ap-
pear to be thrifty, yet there isalways a
* liability of loss at some time or other.
Give the pigs clean food and thus have
hem produce pork that is fit for your
table.
—When a young tree does not grow
and the leaves are yellowish instead of
green dig down to the roots and en-
deavor to discover if some insect or
parasite is not working under ground.
Then dig away plenty of dirt and
drench the roots with strong soapsuds,
to which should be added a few pounds
of unleached wood ashes, or put the
ashes in after drenching the roots. It
will not injure the tree and may prove
of great benefit.
—Fertilizers for vineyards on sandy
soils should consist mostly of potash
and phosphates, applied early in the
spring, All crops that produce large
proportions of seed should be supplied
with phosphates of some kind. For a
weak orchard an application of 50
pounds of nitrate of soda, 200 pounds
of superphosphate and 100 pounds of
muriate of potash will prove beneficial
if applied now and harrowed in, In
the fall apply 20 bushels of air-elaked
lime per acre, followed by 100 pounds
of muriate of potash and 200 pounds
of bone meal next epring.

ImporTANT FAcTs.—If you have
dull and heavy pain across forehead and
about the eyes, if the nostrils are fre-
quently stopped up and followed by a
disagreeable discharge ; if soreness in
the nose and bleeding from the nostrils
is often experienced ; if you are very
sensitive to cold in the head accompan-
ied with headache ; then you may be
sure you have catarrh ; and should im-
mediately resort to Ely’s Cream Balm
for a cure. The remedy will give in-
stant relief.
TTT
——Probably the longest and most
dangerous journey ever attempted in
Alaska, and that, too, in midwinter,
with the thermometer averaging 50 de-
grees below zero, has just been accom-
lished by Guy C. Merrian, an inspector
of United States customs, who has re-
turned to the United States. From Fort
Cudahy, Northwest Territory, within
the rim of the Arctic circle, Mr. Mer-
rian made a perilous descent of the Yu-
kon to Fort St. Michael’s, Bering
Straits, then acrossa comparatively un-
explored wilderness in the wildest and
most dangerous part of the Territory of
Alaska to Kadiak, thence by steamer
to Sitka. The trip extended over 6000
miles and, excepting Indian guides, he
traveled alone. Two teams of sleds,
drawn by six dogs each, were used. The
pioneers of Alaska concede this to be
the longest and most dangerous mid-
winter journey ever attempted.

Savep Mrs. RENNIE'S LirE—Mrs.
Jennie Rennie of Virgil, N. Y., had
been sick for a year or more with over-
flow of the gall and ulcers of the
stomach. Her physician told her she
could not live. Mrs. Rennie’s mother
had found such benefit from the use of
Dr. David Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy,
that she persuaded her daughter to use
it, which she did, with the result that
it cured her of these diseases, and she
says she was never as well as now.

When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria,
When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria,

And they are wise. Scrofuls, |
Bronchitis, Liver Ailments, Consump- |

one entirely out of the humor of fooling |
along, wasting health and wealth on
humbugs, when a reasonable sum ex-
ected for Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical
iscovery would restore their bodies
and ‘‘put money in their purses.”
