FARM NOTES.
—Fat, blocky cows are fine looking ani-
mals, but the lank and wedge likeOnes are
the best milk machines. ;
—The farmer who understands his busi-
ness does not waste time trying to raise
crops to which his soil and climate are not
adapted.
—The largest sheep ranch in America is
said to be situated in Dimmit and Webb
counties in Texas. It contains close to
400 acres.
~The gain from fall plowing, says the
easily made into a mellow seed bed by cul-
tivation, if the winter has proved just
right.
—Turnips can be cultivated with but lit-
tle expense if hand wheel hoes are used
close to the plants and using the cultivator
between the middle of the rows to keep the
soil loose.
—Never let the sunshine in milk. Nev-
er put it away without aerating it. Neith-
er let it stand open in the air after it has
been aerated. Nothing is so susceptible to
evil germs in the air as milk.
— Beets are valuable until the next year
and undergo a ripening process after they
are fully matured. Farmers who have
grown mangels for stock find the sugar beet
better, though the yield of mangels is
larger. :
—A heifer that is to be raised for the
dairy should be handled and made accus-
tomed to all necessary manipulations from
the time she is a calf until maturity. It
this is done she will in all cases prove to
be the better cow.
—Both rye and crimson clover should be
seeded down now, so as to make a fair
growth before winter. It is not advisable
to wait until the middle of September, as
the winter may set in early and the plants
not bef sufficient size to endure severe
cold.
—Sheep can be made to pay more by
producing lambs than in any other manner.
It costs more to raise a lamb to be a wether
and the wether brings less than the lamb
in market, the wool being but a small por-
tion of the profit, compared with that
which can be derived from early lambs.
—If the pigs have been in any way
skimped in their rations during the sum-
mer you cannot put -the corn crib into
them in the fall with much prof-
it. Better sell them for feeders—if you
can find anyone to buy. A pig which has
not been always pushed will not profit
much in the end.
—In Saxony no one is permitted to shoe
horses unless he has passed a public exami-
nation, and is properly qualified. A great
school at Dresden has students from all
parts of the world studying ‘‘farriery.”
This includes not only shoeing horses, hut
their care and treatment—a provision that
saves a great deal of money for farmers and
others owning horses. v
—Cut the corn while the fodder is green.
If the corn is left standing until the leaves
begin to turn yellow it will be less nutri-
tious than if cut earlier. When the ears
are glazed and well filled out is the time to
cut. A day or two in delay will make a
great difference in the quality of the fod-
der, hence the field should he observed
daily.
—Cottonseed meal may be fed with prof-
it to cows or it may he bought and applied
directly to the soil as a fertilizer with prof-
it. It is always better, however, to pass it
through the bodies of the animals, thus de-
riving a feeding benefit therefrom, and en-
riching the manure. Bran is also cheap,
considering its food value, and may be used
as a fertilizer at present prices.
—Eggs can be produced where milk and
butter must be omitted. The city lots are
utilized by owners of small flocks and fowls
can have the run of lawns and orchards.
One advantage in producing eggs is that
the prices obtained are much greater than
for other articles and the hens can be made
to do service during nearly every month in
the year. Five acres devoted entirely to
poultry is considered sufficient to provide
an income of $700 above all expenses.
—The ground for wheat should be
plowed now and left until the weeds begin
to shoot out when the cultivator should
work it fine again. Keep the ground
worked and the weeds will be destroyed,
as well as giving the seed wheat a fine seed
bed. It will also be an advantage to
spread the manure after plowing, so as to
give the seedsof weeds in the manure a
chance to sprout. The frequent working
of the soil incorporates the manure, and en-
ables the young wheat to make more rapid
growth.
—Dark stables are perhaps cool, but it is
better to have plenty of light and protect
the windows with wire netting, using a
muslin curtain if necessary. During the
warm periods when the temperature is very
high animals become sunstruck, or die
from over heat, the same as do human be-
ings. Fresh water and shade are essential,
especially if the animals have been fed |:
largely on grain and are in a fat condition.
Appoplexy is a well known cause of loss of
poultry, and hogs have perished from lack
of shade and from exposure to the direct
heat of the sun. .
—From whence come the weeds in early
spring ? This may he a problem to some
but it must be kept in view that there are
a great many varieties of weeds and they
do not all produce seed at the same time.
A field of wheat may appear green, the
seed heads being backward the cutting
down of the intruders destroying them
completely and preventing seeding, but
there will be among them some that have
produced their seeds and accomplished
their mission. The farmer comes in with
his plow and turns the seeds under, plac-
ing them far beyond the reach of frost and
preserves them from harm until he plows
them to the surface again in the spring,
when they are ready to compete with him
for the possession of the field. The weeds,
therefore come from the seeds that the
farmer preserves in the fall when he plows
his field, and the remedy is to never allow
of the growth of a single weed more than
to get its head above the surface of the
ground. If this rule is strictly followed
weeds will soon become extinct, because
they cannot be produced except from seed,
and if no seed is sown and preserved the
farmer’s work will be light and every year
the destruction of weeds will demand but
little care. Keep the cultivator, harrow,
mower and plow busy now, destroy every
weed and burn all accumulations, in order
to cheapen the labor on the farm hereafter.
Before seeding down the wheat this fall
work the land séteral times and thus be
sure of a clean field.

IN COTTOLEXE
Fry your food in Cottolene instead of lard and it will be free from that greasi-
ness and “richness” so dyspeptic; the flavor will be delicious instead o
rancid, and your food will do your good. Put in a cold pan, heating it with
the pan. Cottolene reaches the cooking point much quicker than lard—care
should therefore be taken not to overheat it. Follow these instructions—
you will never use lard again. :

take rank in the matter of prosperity with
such nations as Italy and Spain.
Li Hung Chang’s Visit.
_ The coming visit of Li Hung Chang to
the United States is attracting attention,
and arrangements are being talked about
at Washington for his reception. As the
visit is official, the distinguished Chinese
statesman bearing a letter from the Em-
peror to the President, the latter will have
to return to the capital to receive him. It
1s believed this mission is for the purpose
of taking steps to bring China and the
United States into closer commercial rela-
tions. This might be done greatly to the
advantage of this country and we hope an
effort in this direction will not be want-
ing.

i I as to testimonial with my signature,
ublished by Dr. Salm, will say, that I was under
is treatment for 10 rhonths for my hearing. It
was catarrh of - the middle ear, and like yourself,
could hear better some days than others, could
hear better in noise. My hearing was very much
improved by the treatment, and have no doubt,
but that he can help you. Dr. Salm appears to be
an honest man, and he will tell you the truth,
whether he can help you or not. If I were you, I
would certainly consult him. I was longer afflic-
ted than you. My hearing was bad in one ear for
about 35 years, and in the other for about 24 or 25
years. oping that your hearing will be entirely
restored. Iremain.

Dr. Salm treated my 13 year old boy

months. I don’t know whether he can cure you
or not, but on examination he will tell you the

and he told him that he could not be cured. I
know other people, that he done a great deal of

Granulated Lids Cured by Dr, Salm.

seemed to affect my general health. Dr. Salm has
cured me. I can again see splendidly, and fee'
better than ever.

Thaught I Would Lose my Mind, but Dr. Salm
Cured Me.
For years I have been suffering with catarrh
and ear trouble, and was miserable indeed. I
thought sometimes I would lose my mind on aec-
count of the fearful noises in my head, and then
my hearing was leaving me rapidly, and there
was’ent an organ about me rhat was’ent out of
shape. But to-day, thanks to Dr. Salm, all those
fearful noises have left me. Can hear well, no
more catarrh, and feel as well as any one of my
age could expect. |

Four of the Best Doctors in the County Said
She was Incurable, but Dr. Salm Made a
Healthy Woman of Her.
For over five years I have been sufferin
heart trouble and a bad case of dropsy.. We went
to four of the best doctors in the county for relief
but all of them said a cure was impossible. At
times I felt so bad that I was certain I had to die.
I fainted away very often, and my friends told me
afterwards that every moment would be my last.
And I hereby affirm that had it not been for the
splendid treatment received from Dr. Salm, who
has entirely cured me of that great trouble, I
would have been under the sod long ps.

Dr. Salm Worked Another Miracle.
For more than 8 years I have been suffering un-
told agonies, with stomach and general trouble.
I became thin and pale, too weak to work, and
hardly able to drag Inpesl around. - I looked so
badly, that my neighbors, friends and relatives
thought I had QonSImIn, and wouldn't last
much longer. During those 8 years about 10 or
12 of our best doctors treated me, but I became
worse and worse, until I went to Dr. Salm, and I
can not eat more in a day, than 1 have heretofore
in a week, can attend to my daily labors, look
finely, have no more pains, and I poy think I
am well, People around here think Dr. Salm
worked another miracle, and I am thankful to
him, for he has saved me from an early grave.
