FARM NOTES.
— Never use a graft from a tree that is in
the least degree unhealthy. Any neglect
in selecting the grafts may result in the de-
struction of the orchard.
"To get clean strawberries use cut straw
or salt hay under the vines, which prevents
the sand or dirt from adhering to the fruit
and also protects against loss of moisture.
— Diseased wood on a tree can never be
made new again. Cut it off and allow an-
other shoot to grow. Every day that such
wood remains on the tree adds to the lia-
bility of losing the tree.
—A bran mash, composed of bran and
linseed meal, scalded, should be given oc-
casionally to cows and horses that have
been fed principally on hay and fodder in
order to regulate the boyels.
s-Hatch the pullets for next year as ear-
ly “as can be done, so as to afford as long
time as possible for them to grow and ma-
ture before November, and to have them
begin laying before winter sets in.
—In setting out trees, trim the roots
when straggling. Select a time when the
ground is just most ; not wet. Press dirt
firmly about the roots, and set about two
inches deeper than they were in the nurs-
ery.
—The planting of a tree, whether for
fruit, timber or ornament, increases the
value of the land. The value of many
farms could be almost doubled in a few
years, at least in a generation, by judicious
tree planting.
—An acre of rich clover will pasture eight
shoats from spring to autumn. If of good
stock, these should gain 100 pounds each.
Can pork be made as cheaply in any other
way, or is there any other means by which
an acre of clover can be made to pay so
well ? .
—The roots of young trees or plants that
have recently arrived from the nursery-must
not be allowed to become dry. Exposing
them to winds is a risk. If the ground is
not ready ‘‘heel’”’ them in at once. If the
roots of a young tree are injured cut off the
damaged parts. Do not be afraid to cut
back from the top if there appears to be but
few roots to the tree. :
— Tt is not best to milk a cow too close
to the period of calving. She should be
allowed to go dry for six weeks at least.
as she should not be taxed to produce milk
during the last four weeks. It must be the
duty of the farmer to feed such cows very
carefully, as milk fever may result if they
are made very fat.
—One reason why the soil must be made
very fine is that small seeds cannot push
through when germinating, and such seeds
must be covered very lightly. Large seeds
such as peas, beans and beets, may be
planted somewhat deep, but not if the soil
is too heavy. A light covering of fine soil
is to be prepared, but the ground must be
well prepared to insure success.
—The Southdown sheep is not as large
as the Oxford or Shropshire, but it still
holds its place at the head of the mutton
breeds for quality of meat. One thing in
its favor also is its hardiness and ability to
forage over fields where the larger kinds
are not well adapted. Where the common
flocks are to be improved it will be an ad-
vantage to begin with the Southdown, as a
change for the better will he noticed the
first season.
—The cheapest thing provided the farm-
er is water, yet itis the most diflicult to
obtain at times when most needed. Every
ounce of water that can be retained in the
soil for future use is so much saved. When
the surface soil is loosened to the depth of
only an inch it prevents loss by evapora-
tion, and the loose top soil also permits of
areater absorption of water during rains.
The amount of water lost by flowing away
when the soil is hard is usually more than
sufficient for the crop. The two main
points to observe is to endeavor to allow
no water to escape and also to aim to pre-
vent loss hy evaporation.
There are new varieties of roses brought
out every year, and, while they are usually
an improvement on older kinds, yet there
are varieties that are hardier than the oth-
ers, and that is an important matter to
consider in selecting rose bushes for the
future. Among the well-known varieties
the Jacquiminot, a red, is hardy, and so is
the Paul Neyron, a pink, which produces
large flowers. The Margaret Dickson is a
hardy white rose, and the Harrison Yellow
a fine yellow kind. The number of roses
on the plants, their shades of color, ete.,
govern the selection also. It is best for a
novice to permit the nurseryman to select
the hardy varieties, where a large and beau-
tiful rose is also desired, as well as hardi-
ness of the plant.
There is no time of the year when weeds
can be so successfully combated as early in
the spring, and they also inflict greater
damage at that period than at any other
time, as the crops were gotten in as soon as
the frost leaves, the weeds crowding the
desirable plants out just when the farmer
is exceedingly busy. Professor Shaw, who
has given weeds his attention for several
years, affirms that even the Canada thistle
can be cleared out of a field by judicious
rotation of crops. The most persistent
weeds are thistles, dnisies, pigeon weeds,
burdock, couch grass, wild flax, ragweeds,
and purslaine, each kind appearing accord-
ing to the season and the soil. The grow-
ing of crops requiring hoe cultivation is the
cheapest mode of getting rid of weeds.
Most farmers object to being compelled to
use the hoe, but the cultivator cannot de-
stroy weeds growing between plants in the
rows unless grown under the check row
system, which compels the utilization of
too much room for some crops, the hoe he-
ing indispensable if the weeds are to be
kept out.
No field can be rendered absolutely free
from weeds, as seeds are blown upon the |:
farm from outside sources, or brought there-
in some other manner, but the farm can
be made clean and as free from weeds as
possibly by hoed crops if such crops are
grown on the land for two or three years in
succession. Corn, potatoes, turnips, beets,
carrots and cabbage provide a variety for
rotation. The lwbor of hoeing a crop is a
large item of expense, but it is but a small
sum compared with the annual cost of de-
stroying weeds, which are renewed every
year because the land has not been thor-
oughly cleaned of the pests, and as long as
the farmer refuses to resort to heroic meas-
ures for exterminating weeds he will al-
ways have them in his way, and especially
at a period of the year when he can least
afford to devote labor in that direction, to
say notbing of the smaller field of crops due
to the presence of weeds.
More Than a Billion Dollars.
Though Intended to Retrench, This Congress Breaks
All Records.
Speaker Reed and the other Republican
leaders of the House entered upon the final
session of the Fifty-fourth Congress with
the avowed determination that no legisla-
tion which compelled great expenditures
of public money should be enacted during
the session. They have generally adhered
to this policy, although the regular appro-
priation bills for the support of the govern-
ment have brought the total appropriations
of this Congress far beyond the billion
mark, breaking the record of former
Congresses.
Many of the appropriations, notably
those for river and harbor improvements
and for public buildings, were necessary to
continue works authorized by other Con-
gresses. No public buildings have been
siarted by this session and no new battle-
ships or vessels of any description, althongh
the creation of a ‘new Navy,’’ begun sev-
eral years ago, has by no means been aban-
doned.
The last week of the session began with
several of the appropriation bills not yet
passed by the Senate. Much of the time
of that body has been consumed in the dis-
cussion of the Cuban question, which the
House has delt with only incidentially.
Necessarily, the policy of the House to
avoid new legislation. which .involved ex-
penditure has been enforced upon the Sen-
ate. The Nicaragua canal bill, which was
discussed at great length in the Senate, but
not voted on, was not taken up in the
House, nor has the free home bill, which
the Senate passed, had a hearing at the
other end of the capitol. The Pacific rail-
road funding bill met a decisive defeat in
the House, so the Senate found it useless to
discuss that proposition.
One feature of the session’s record worthy
of note is the great number of private pen-
sion bills passed, many of them placing
the windows of officers on the pension rolls
at ratings ranging from $30 to $75 a month.
Private claims and war claims, on the
other hand, “have been few. Several of the
pension bills were vetoed by President
Cleveland, but Congress enacted some of
these, despite the veto, by the necessary
tws-thirds majority.
One act written upon the statue books
this session is note worthy as being the
work practically of one man. That is the
act to reduce the cases in which the penal-
ty of death may be inflicted, a movement
to which General Curtis of, New York, has
devoted the best efforts of his congressional
caroer. The abolition of the death penalty
has been a long-cherished enthusiasm with
General Curtis ; now, after long years of
agitation on the subject, he has succeeded
in erasing from the the statue books all
Uniied States laws imposing the death
penalty for other crimes than murder, crim-
inal assanlt, treason or piracy, and endowed
juries with the powers to stipulate whether
or not capital punishment shall be infiicted
for these crimes.
An agitation by dramatists, composers
aud theatrical managers has resulted in
securing a law at this session fixing heavy
penalties for public performances of copy-
righted dramatic or musical compositions,
and empowering all United States circuit
courts to enforce the orders of any such
court regarding these performances. The
interstate commerce laws have been ex-
tended to prevent traffic in obscene litera-
ture or articles designed for immoral uses.
The friends of the Tennessee centennial
exposition of 1897 succeeded in securing
an appropriation of $140,000 for a govern-
ment building and exhibit. while the Ne-
braska delegation is working to secure a
like recognition for the Omaha exposition.
One of the most important pieces of land
legislation permits the patenting of lands
containing petroleum or other mineral oils |
under the mineral land laws. © Among acts
relating to the courts was one withdrawing
from the Supreme court jurisdiction of
criminal cases not capital and giving it to |
the circuit court ot appeals. Another act
authorizes officers who served in the regu-
lar army during the rebellion to bear the
tille and on ceremonial occasions to wear
the uniform of their ranks.

For that Cross Feeling.
Therapeutic treatment for ill temper is a
late development of medical science, A
physician writing in a medical journal,
points out that explosions of temper which
occur at very slight provocations are really
due to ‘‘a condition produced by an accum-
ulation of small irritations which have
gradually worked up the patient intoa state
of excitement venting in an explosion quite
out of proportion to its apparent cause.”
With comforting allusions to short tem-
pered persons as ‘‘patients,”’ iv is stated
that continuous physical discomfort has
the same effect, and that even without ob-
vious discomfort the accumulation of ab-
normal substances, such as uric acid, may
produce irritability of temper.
Powders composed of twenty grains of

bicarbonate of potash with ten or twenty of |
bromide of potassium are recommended to
be taken when the feeling of irritability
comes on or asa preventive when some-
thing annoying has oceurred or some de-
pressing news is heard.
1t is suggested that these ‘temper pow-
ders”’ might be especially valuable for those
unfortunates whose pleasure in life is de-
stroyed, their appetites impaired and their
digestions ruined not through disease of
their own, but through the constant ill-
temper and fretfulness of some other mem-
ber of their family.
Calf Swims the River.
While bringing a cow and calf, belonging
to R. McCullough, from the farm of R. W.
Ferguson last week the calf became fright-
ened and ran away. No trace of it could
be found until Friday afternoon, when it
was discovered in a field up the river. An
effort was made to capture it and it ran |
down the bank and swam across the river,
where the Gamble brothers caught it and it
was returned home.—Jersey Shore Herald.

Philanthropy in Mexico.
One cannot even list, in such a paper,
the philanthropic institutions of the capi-
tal, much less describe them. But it is
proper to point, in passing, at once their
oldness and their newness—the Spanish of
them and their modern-Mexicanism. No
other nation has founded so extensively
such beneficences in its colonies, and few
colonies have built so well upon their in-
heritance. It isa useful Delsartean atti-
tude for the mind to try to ‘‘fahney’’ Eng-
land peppering New England with schools,
hospitals, asylums, and churches for Indi-
ans. But that is what infamous Spain did,
three hundred years ago, up and down a
space which measures something over one
hundred and three New Englands. We
may pick flaws in these institutions as ad-
ministered while we were hanging witches,
but the institutions were there—and are
there yet.
The Royal Hospital of Mexico (for Indi-
ans) was founded in 1553. It covered
three and a half acres—good elbow room
for its normal two hundred and twenty
patients. In the great epidemic of 1762,
by crowding, it cared for eight thousand
three hundred and sixty-one, aud it is still
operative. This is but a beginning in the
list. The Beneflcencia Publica alone has
charge of ten institutions in the city, on
which it expends $25,000 a month—like
the Industrial school, the School of Correc-
tion (also industrial), the Asylum of the
Poor (whose plain exterior hides a truly
beautiful home for the nine hundred in-
mates, mostly children, who are educated
and given useful trades in an atmosphere
of flowers and music) ; a hospital for the
wounded ; a maternity hospital ; a school
for the blind ; an insane asylum for men,
another for women—and so on. It feeds
three thousand four hundred people, and
supervises the public sale of drink and
food. When the great new hospital—on
the French detached plan, with thirty-five
buildings fifty feet apart, at a cost of §300,-
000—is completed, the present hospitals,
all of which are very valuable properties,
will be sold.—From ‘‘The Awakening of a

per’s Magazine for March.
Tour to California via Pennsylvania
Railroad.
In Southern Califorpia is found the
realization of a dream of the ancients. Here
are the “Golden Apples of the Hesperides,’
ripening beneath a sky more beautiful
than that of Rome, and in a climate more
perfect than that of Athens. Never in the
wildest flights of his imagination did either
Homer or Hesiod ever conceive of a garden
richer in verdant beauty, more productive
of luscious fruit, or set among more pictur-
esque and lovely surroundings. Here the
rose entwines the orange, and the snow
mantled peaks of the Sierras reflect the
golden glow of the evening twilight.

‘WOUNDED AND
PARALYZED.
——
.
An Old Veteran of the War, After Years of Suffering, Has a Shock of
‘found interesting :
Paralysis.
From the Press, Utica, N.Y.
Mr. David G. Talbot is a well known and
respected citizen of Otsego county, New
York, residing at Edmeston, who three
years ago had a stroke of paralysis, which
he attributes to the effects of a wound re-
ceived on the 16th of June, 1864, before
Petersburg, Va., while serving with the
New York Heavy Artillery.
The following is his own account of his
illness and convalescence, which will be
EpMESTON, N.Y., Aug. 31, 1896.
“On the fifth day of December, 1893, I
was taken with a paralyticshock, which af-
fected. the whole of the left side, and I
could not speak for three weeks.
I was
confined to my bed for a long time and con-
stantly attended by a physician, though
little relief was experienced. My stomach
and the muscles of my throat were much
affected.
I was wounded in June, 1864, at
Petersburg, Va., having then lost three
fingers of my left hand, and that always af-
fected me in a marked degree, my arm oft-
en becoming numb.
I should state that on
the day I received the stroke, I had two
distinct shocks, the first in the morning,
which was so light that the doctor was not
at all alarmed, but the second nearly fin-
ished me up. Ever since the war I had
suffered with nervous debility and my con-
dition was very bad when I was attacked.
I am now sixty years old and hardly dared
look for anything approaching good health
after my life of suffering, but I saw so
much said about Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
for Pale People in the newspapers, and that
termined to try them. This I did just one
year and four months ago. I strictly fol-
lowed the directions and felt better within
a week. Iam not the same man I was
when I began te take Dr. William’s med-
icine. My old comrade Norton who was
in the same. company and regiment with
me, and was a grievous sufferer from a gen-
eral nervous debility, at my recommenda-
tion has taken Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and
they have helped him wonderfully.
‘‘1 certify on honor that the above state-
ment is true in every particular.
(Signed) DAVID C. TALBOT.”
‘Witness JoHN C. LAPPEUS.
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills contain, ina
condensed form, all the elements necessary
to give new life and richness to the blood
and restore shattered nerves. They are
also a specific for troubles peculiar to fe-
males, such as suppressions, irregularities
and all forms of weakness. They build
up the blood, and restore the glow of
health to pale and sallow cheeks. In men
they effect a radical cure in all cases aris-
ing from mental worry, or excesses of what-
ever nature. Pink Pills are sold in boxes
(never in loose bulk) at 50 cents a box or
six boxes for $2.50, and may be had of all
druggists, or direct by mail from Dr. Wil-
liams’ Medicine Company, Schenectady.

Catarrh and Eye Trouble Cured by Dr. Salm.
For several years, my daughter Dilla, has had
a bad case of Catarrh anosinpinied by all the
usual symptoms attending the disease. Catching
cold continually. At last the eyes became afflict-
ed, they become weaker and weaker from in-
flammation, then we became alarmed, and
brought her to Dr. Salm. After a course of treat-
ment, she is now, thanks to his skill, entirely
cured. Jaco B. MAURER.

After Having Tried Buffalo, Pittsburg, Greenshury

Worse, but Dr. Satin Cured
Her at Last.
Grew
For more than 10 years I have heen leading a
miserable existence, on account of illness. T had
tried at least 10 doctors .in Buffalo, Pittsburg,
Greensburg and surrounding towns. My suffer-
ing grew worse and worse. I became thin, too
weak to work, and passed many sleepless nights.
Couldn't eat, my stomach was out of order, and my
nerves seemed all unstrung. [| don’t want to live
through another such a time, for anything in [I
wide—wide world, and often [ have prayed to die.
After T had given up all hope of enjoying health
again, I decided to consult Dr. Salm, and, thank
the good Lord, that I did so. After a course ot
treatment, I once riore enjoy fine health, eat,
sleep and work once more, as heretofore. Iam
truly grateful to Dr. Salm. Ie certainly under-
stands his business, as my ease is not the only
wonderful cure he has performed in this county.

After Having Tried 8 of the Best Doctors in the
Country, Without Avail, Dr. Sali Cured Her.
For more than 12 years I have suflered a good
deal of pain, in fact, I was in distress and misery
nearly all the time, particularly on sitting down.
The misery was in my left side, in the region of
my heart. It was very seldom that I could at-
tend to my labors. I tried 8 different doctors, so
said, the bestin our country, but I got worse iin-
stead of better, at last I went to Dr. Salm, who
makes regular visits to Sunbury, and thanks to
his skillfnnl treatment, I am now entirely cured.

Every Body-Ought to Know What Dr. Salm did

Disease.
For more than 4 years I have had a most terri-
ble skin trouble. 1 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-
endurable, 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-
ory Ointments, etc., got treatment from Pierce
Maodical Institute, Buffalo, 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 a new man. Nomore skin troub-’
le. 1 am working again, and as well as ever.
Every body ought to know this.

Bad Case of Sore Eyes Cured by Dr. Salm.
Ever since I 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
eye-sight, nor improve my appearance. The doc-
tors around here didn’t do any good, my eyes got
worse and worse. Iam now 20 years oid, I 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.
