FARM NOTES.
—Try the Imperial Japanese morning
glory for a change this year. It is far su-
perior to some of the old kinds.
—A bushel of shelled corn or oats should
be sufficient for 100 sheep for a day, but
they should also be supplied with hay or
eooked roots as well.
—The Marianna plum can be grown
from cuttings. and will thus be free from
sugkers. The plum does not give a crop
every year, but when there is a fair season:
it amply repays for the lost time.
—The way to dispose of droppings from
the poulty house during. winter is to add
them to the manure heap. It requires too
much labor to attempt to preserve them
separately when they are freezing and as
bard as stones.
—To propagate from puny plants is as
faial to success as to breed animals from
scrub stock. A plant never refuses to bear
fruit without a cause, and that cause is
often barrenness that no system of cultiva-
tion will remove.
—The poultry raiser, like the dairyman,
never fails in business. There is always a
market for his product, and the conditions
are such that he can keep up production
despite the hard times ; the constant income
does the business.
—Nearly always veal is worth more per
pound, live weight, than hogs. Indeed,
good young steers usually sell fully as high
as hogs, and vary less in price. They are
worth at least a dollar, a hundred more
just now. Why, then, is not the raising
and feeding of calves, either for veal or
young beef, fully as profitable for the gen-
eral farmer as the breeding and feeding of
pigs?
—The grass on the lawn usually begins
to start carly. About the middle of next
month rake the lawn until it is clear of all
leaves or other refuse, as an unclean lawn
is an abomination. Apply on an acre of
lawn 50 pounds superphosphate, 50 pounds
nitrate of soda and 100 pounds sulphate of
potash. Wood ashes, about 40 bushels per
aere, may be used in place of the potash.
—Do not postpone preparations for the
hot bed. Lay asidea lot of clear horse ma-
nure for the purpose, and get the frame and
sash in place, banking around it well. The
manure may he placed in the hothed to
heat and decompose. Later this manure
may he mixed with that which is fresher,
soil placed over it and the hothed made:
ready. About six inches of rich soil should
be on the top of the manure.
two inches wide at one end and tapering to
one-half an inch at the other, are the best
labels for fruit trees. The narrow end is
merely wound round a branch, and can
never cut into.

the zine is too smooth or shiny, a littie ex- |
posure to weather will tend to roughen it,
so that it can be written on more plainly.
In order to save labor in making troughs,
or to avoid buying those that will
better, farmers use the V-shape trough,
which is very inconvenient, as it compels
the hogs, and especially pigs, to reach over

when there is but little food, and which is |
near the bottom, the pigs often having to |
get into the trough to eat, and this they |
will do readily when a number ave togeth-
er and scrambling for food. A trough not
too deep and having a flat bottom is much
better, causing less waste.
—The value of skim milk on the farm is
nearly as great as when it is sold before the
eream 1% considering the low
prices received by farmers. 1f the cream or
butter is sent to market the farm loses !
nothing , and, as every 100 pounds of skim
milk contain about ten powxls of solid
matter, it is not only excellent food for
pigs hut also for poultry. The addition
of only two poudds of linsced meal will
nearly bring the skim mill haek to it orig-"
inal value as whole milk.

ed, as a change to fresh ground of the sick |
ones contaminates more space and makes it
more diflicult to get rid of the disease. If |
the unaffected animals are removed at once |
to ground where the disease does n6t exist
they may escape entirely, but to remove
the sick ones and leave the others is te in-
vite the disease to remain and destroy all.
—It is not merely for looks that build-
ings are painted. The paint penetrating
the wood not only preserves it from decay,
but it also makes the building materially
warmer than it would otherwise he. Out-
buildings that are used to shelter stock
ought to be painted every two or three
years. It is true economy, besides adding
much to the neatness and attractive ap-
pearance of the farm, and giving to the
passer-by the belief that its owner is thrifty
which belief is generally based on fact in
such cases.
—A wagon hox ten feet long, three feet
wide and twenty-five inches deep will hold
27.8 bushels of ear corn and 50.2 bushels of
shelled corn. A crib ten feet wide, ten
feet high and sixteen feet long will hold
711 bushels of ear corn. Of ear corn one
bushel is contained in two and a quarter
eubic feet. In figuring shelled corn or
grain, the same space will hold one and
four-fifths times as much grain as it will of
ear corn. A crib that will hold 800 bush-
els of corn will hold of shelled corn or of
other grain 1440 bushels.
— When a pig reaches 150 pounds it is
worth fully as much as one weighing 200
pounds, and it will bring a higher price per
pound than the larger one. When the
farmer keeps a pig until it reaches 200
pounds he sacrifices 50 pounds, which may
have cost not only the additional feed, hut
extra labor. There is a period in the life
of an animal when it can be sold to the
best advantage, and that is where the
farmer’s business ability can be applied,
for the farmer must be a business man and
be informed regarding the markets if he
desires success.
—The old question whether it is better
to manure for land or for crop is not much
asked nowadays. The loss of original fer-
tility of soil and the narrowing profits on
crops require that farmers in these times
should get as nearly full returns as possible
from all the manure they apply. If they
manure at all for the future itis by seed-
ing with clover when they apply the fertil-
izer, s0 that part of its benefit shall re-
main in the clover roots. Besides this,
seeded ground does not waste fertility,
either by washing or blowing away as that
left naked in winter is sure to do.

Some See by Day as Well as by Night—Ghostly Birds
Fate of a Snow Owl.
“Any one who has tramped much
through the woods,’ said an observant
Pennsylvania woodsman to a New York
Sun writer, “knows how seldom it is that
he sees an owl of any description, and also
how equally rare it is to get a shot at a
hawk, although many may be seen.
‘There are two good reasons why the
everyday hunter seldom sees an owl while
he tramps. One reason is that some owls
cannot see by day, snd therefore select hid-
ing places which render their discovery
next to impossible as a person passes casu-
ally through the woods. The other reason
is that there are some owls that see by day
as well as night. These double sighted
birds discover the intruder long before he
can possibly see them, and they lose no
time in seeking places of safety. Thereare
owls whose eyesight does not depend on
darkness to be of use. The screech owl and
the long eared owl are among the members
of the family that are blinded, or partially
by the light of day. Others, among them
the hoot owl, the snow owl, the hawk owl
and the short-eared owl, are sharp sighted,
both by day and by night. The short-eared
owl is a great field mouse hunter in wheat
or rye stubble. He is among the first of
the family of winter owls that come down
from the north to forage in this latitude,
“Early in -the season quail hunters
working in wheat stubbles, especially in
western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio,
are frequently surprised by the sight of a
pair of big birds rising suddenly from the
field and gliding away, a few feet above
the stubble, as noiseless as ghosts and as
swift as shadows. These are short-eared
owls hunting for field mice. One might
scare up 300 of these owls at once and they
would make scarcely any more noise than
so many butterflies. Ghostly silence in
flight characterizes all species of owls.
*‘Hawks fly noiselessly, too. These birds
depend on stealth in seeking their prey.
It won’t do for them to have any rustle
about their hunting. There is another pe-
culiar thing about the short-eared owls.
If the hunter finds them on a piece of stub-
ble he will not find any other game birds
there. The only way that I can explain
that fact is that the owl knows instinctive-
ly that the game bird is liable to be hunt-
ed, and that, consequently, he can hunt
his own micemore securely if he goes where
the quails do not come.
“The rarest of all owls are the hawk owl,
the snow owl and the long eared owl. The
hawk owl I never saw in Pennsylvania, but
I have shot it in eastern New York and in
Connecticut. There is a little owl called
the sawet, which is sometimes plentiful
and sometimes scarce. These owls are
blind as bats in the daytime, and when
dawn approaches they roost in the first
Consequently
window sills, gate posts and house roofs,
just as well os in the woods. It is no trick
to knock them over with a stick at such |
times. There is a curious thing about the !
all summer owls, and go South on the
proach of cold weather.
‘Owls have a peculiar w.
They swallow their food bones and all. By |
some process the bones, fur, and feathers |
are all rolled up insmall balls in the owl's
stomach. When I was a hoy 1 became
aware of this, aud it was great sport fer me
to search in the woods for trees under which
I could discover these ejected balls. That
was a sure indication that rough-ceged
hawk or some species ef owl made that tree |
its roosting place. Taking a long pole and
fastening on one end a stout steel trap I
would hoi the trap with a mouse or some
other thing the birds were fond of, and then |
push the trap into the branches of the tree,
and tie the pole fast. I seldom failed to,
find a hawk or an owl fast in the trap when
I went to look aiter it. Once I captured a
magnificent snowy owl in that way. Iie
was uninjured except where the trap held
his leg. After a great struggle—for a |
wounded owl is one of the worst customers |
to fool with—I tied his legs together, and |
his great wings down, and started proudly
homeward with my prize. I carried with
me an old single barreled gun. The time |
was in the fall, and on my way home I;
laid the owl on the ground while I stopped |
While thus en-!
an-
of eating
I knew |
I took my gun
and going close to the hole fired into it and
took to my heels. Leoking hack after I
had run a safe distance I saw the yellow-
jackets swarming angrily out of their dis-
mantled home. The sound of the gun had
started the owl, and he had fluttered |
about, bound as he was. That flutter was
fatal to him. The savage yellow jackets
saw the movement and settled down on the
helpless bird until his coat was as yellow
as gold. Wherever the creatures could find |
a spot to sink a stinger they sank one, and |
in spite of his bonds the poor owl rolled |
and tumbled about in agony. I reloaded |
my gun and creeping behind a fallen tree |
until I was near enough almost to touch |
the owl with the end of the barrel, shot the !
prize through my boyish mischief.”
There are many miners in the state
| r . . . . . .
of Ohio and just now their situation is any-
thing but pleasant. In the heart of winter
they find themselves in a most deplorable
condition. In the Hocking and Sandy
creek valleys it is estimated that there are
7,000 miners. Of these about 5,000 are
idle. We arc informed that those who are
employed are keeping those who have noth-
ing to do. This must be a rather difficult
task for them, especially when their wages
are considered. The miners who are work-J
ing are making just about $15. From this
meagre sum, they sustain themselves, their
families and contribute to the support of
others. How this is possible is not ex-
plained. It is quite certain, however, that
luxury is not a prevalent vice among those
miners at the present time.
An estimate made by a trade paper
shows that the passage of the infamous pipe
line bill at the last session of the legisla-
ture has already resulted in $30,000,000
being paid to the Standard Oil company by
the people of the country. This gigantic
corporation can afford to have a lobby at
Harrishurg. .

A Proposed New Game Law.
The state board of game commissioners
have finished the bill upon which they
have been working for some time, and will
now present it to the legislature. The bill
takes the place of all local and general
game acts. From the Harrisburg Patriot
we learn that the proposed act makes hunt-
ing or shooting on Sunday punishable with
a fine of $25 for every offense or one day’s
imprisonment for each dollar of penalty
imposed. It prohibits the killing, wound-
ing and trapping of song birds, and the
taking and needlessly destroying nests or
eggs of song or wild birds, except for scien-
tific purposes. Certificates may be ob-
tained by persons over 15 years of age for
the collection of birds, their nests and eggs
or game animals for scientific purposes on
the payment of a fee of $5 and the filing of
a bond of $100 with the board. The Eng-
lish sparrow, king-fisher, cooper’s hawk,
sharp-skinned hawk, buck hawk, pigeon
hawk, great horned owl, red birds and
doves are not protected by the act.
Wild turkey, pheasant, grouse, quail,
partridge, woodcock, prairie chicken, Eng-
lish, Mongolian or Chinese pheasants, elk,
deer or fawn may be killed from October
15th to December 15th. Hunting of deer
with dogs and the killing of game for sale
or shipment outside the state is punishable
by a heavy fine and imprisonment. The
act also prohibits the hunting of rabbits
with ferrets and the trapping of game birds
and animals with snares, blinds, ete. De-
coys may be used, though, in hunting
ducks, wild geese and brant and quail may
be trapped from January 1st to February
15th for protection during the winter. The
fines collected under the act are to be cov-
ered into the state treasury for the use of
the board.
Many Christians Killed.
News of the Fighting in Crete—Incessant Firing Out-
side of Canea on Sunday.
A dispatch from Canea to the Asty states
that incessant rifle and cannon firing was
heard outside Canea Friday and Saturday,
and that the Turkish troops took part in
the fighting, using artillery. Many Christ-
ians were killed. It is reported that the
Christians have captured the arsenal at Su-
da. The Asty’s correspondent adds that he
saw Moslems pillaging the bakers’ quarters
in Canea and killing and mutilating Epirot
bakers.
Stik Mill Employes Strike.
Three hundred hands employed at Reil-
ing, David & Schoen’s silk mill, West Ho-
boken, struck and marched out. The mills
were closed. Four months ago the firm re-
duced wages 20 per cent. The hands
struck at that time, but concluded to go to
work again because of the general business
depression. Iriday they held a meeting
and decided that business now warranted a
restoration of the old rates. The firm re-
fused to accede to their demands.

the Build-
pv Would Cost That Much to Replace
ings and Gentents. 2
HARRISBURG, Feb. 2.—While superin-
tendent Delaney insists that the building
and contents could not he replaced just as
they were for less than $1,000,000, that
amount is reduced about half by other es-
timates. The legislative halls, committee
rooms, reception chambers and other apart-
ments were filled with the most costly fur-
niture, and the libraries with the state
publications stored in the basement are ap-
praised in their ashes by various officers
at $50,000. Considering the unsaleable
character of most of the state publications,
the loss on them will amount to $395,000.
Until the removal of the state library, ar-
chives, ete., the insurance on the building
and contents was $460.000.
About five years ago, under Governor
Pattison’s administration, the discovery
was made so far as any of the *‘hill’’ offi-
cers could find out, that there was not and
had not been for an indefinite period a dol-
lar’s worth of insurance on its contents.
Then the insurance was placed. It has had

place in the Senate chamber.

Lohr, who was standing with Taylor was
also blown many feet into the air and was
severely injured. The saw mill was de-
molished.

The theives carried their plunder away in

rants hunted through Gallitzin Wednesday,
but found no trace of the missing goods.

stead of better, at last [ went to Dr. Salm, who
makes regular visits to Sunbury, and thanks to
his skillful treatment, I am now entirely cured.

Every Body Ought to Know What Dr. Salm did
Jor Me. He Cured Be of a Fearful! Skin
Discase.
For more than 4 years I have had a most terri-
ble skin trouble. I seemed to be covered, like a
fish with scales all over my body, even to my face
not excepting my eyes. The pain was-almost un-
cndurable, and I walked the floor many a night,
on account of my agony. To work, was out of the
question, nor could I wash myself. I tried 5 of
our best doctors, spent money on patent medi-
cines, such as Cuticura, Golden Medical Discov-
ery Ointments, ete., got treatment from Pierce
Medical Institute, Buftalo, but it went from worse
to worse. Then I heard of Dr. Salm’s wonderful
cures in this neighborhood, took his treatment,
and to-day, I am & new man. Nomore skin troub-
le. 1 am working again, and as well as ever.
Every body ought to know this.

Bad Case of Sorc Eyes Cured by Dr. Salm.
Ever since 1 was a babe, I have suffered with
sore eyes. They became very painful, and with
every cold I took, and that was often enough,
they became worse and worse. Little scales had
to be removed from the lashes every morning,
and the margin of the lids began to look like
raw beef; of course all this didn’t enhance my
eya-sight, nor improve my appearance. The doc-
tors around here didn’t do any good, my eyes got
worse and worse. I am now 20 years oid, [ went
to Dr. Salm, and he has done wonderful work. No
more redness, no scales forming, soreness has al-
most entirely left, and my eye-sight is better.
I know I will be cured in a short time.
