v a Bellefonte, Pa., April 16, 1897. FARM NOTES. —The male lamb should be castrated when one or two ggeeks old. The risk is then reduced to a minimum, and the pain of the operation is scarcely felt, as the nervous system is very slightly developed at that time. —Many who have good orchards suffer loss by allowing a few trees of worthless fruit to remain year after year. There is a yearly resolve to change the tops next spring by grafting, but when the time comes around the resolution is too often forgotten, and the tree remains. —To remove wens on cattle, mix sulphur with - spirits of turpentine, to the consis- tency of thick cream ; apply this two or three times a day to the wen, rubbing well and heating it with a hot shovel. We have known this perfectly efficacious in curing wens of long standing. —A cheap way to destroy weeds is to grow corn, potatoes, carrots, beets and turnips. A crop of cabbage should also be included. These crops require clean culti- vation and pay for the labor of destroying the weeds. nated on farms by growing crops that re- quired careful cultivation. ; —Asparagus is liable to the attack of a new rust, which is of fungus growth, causing the stalks to blister and turn brown. It increases rapidly during warm weather and the remedy is to cut down the stalks after the season of use has passed and burn them, carefully raking the bed and burning the refuse in the fall. —To get good melons and Lima beans make the hillsnow. Use plenty of manure, and do not disturb them until the apple trees are in blossom, when the seed may be planted. In this manner much of the ma- nure will decompose while in the hills, and when the time arrives for planting the seed can be chopped down with the hoe and the manure worked into the soil. —Professor Slingerland, of Cornell Uni- versity, says that the statement of ento- mologists that the codling mot happears as the blossoms fall, and deposits an egg, is an erroneous one. He says that examina- tion shows that the moth does not appear until a week after the blossoms fall, and that by this time the lobes of the calyx have closed, so that it is impossible for her to lay eggs in the calyx. —Runt pigs and lambs are the result of lack of food. The young animals are crowded out of place by those that are stronger, a few pigs getting much more than their share at the expense of the weaker, and the strong lambs monopolize the ground food in the troughs. As any drawbacks at the start are not quickly over- come the runt pigs do not soon overtake the others and consequently is unprofita- ble. —Scientists tell us that sunshine is one of the best microbe killers and consumption cures. Dr. Stolker, Iowa State veterinar- ian, discovered on his trips through that State that those cattle stalled nearest the light were freest from disease. This is a good point for dairymen to remember when overhauling the barn or building a new one, i. e., put in more windows on the south side and have the stable so arranged that the cows may receive sunshine. —It is often hard work to get a clover seeding on the dry, elevated knolls in grain fields. Tack of moisture is usually the cause. But the evil may be remedied by drawing a few loads of stable manure and spreading over these knolls. The manure not only protects the young clover plants but it also holds the moisture in the soil by checking evaporation. A few times seeding the knolls thus will make them as rich as any part of the field. It is usually the lack of clover seeding on such places that has kept them poor. —Such crops as asparagus, rhubarb, goose- berries entail but little labor for a small patch, for with the exception of strawberries they remain for years when once establish- ed. At this season, when no other crop can ‘be put in, it will not require half a day to prepare the land and put in quite a piece in onions and peas. Kale, radish, lettuce and late peas can be seeded before the month is out. After danger of frost is over beans, tomatoes, melons (if the soil is light), squash, cucumbers, etc., will re- quire less than a day’s work to get them in ‘the ground. Early and late cabbage, early beets, carrote and parsnips should be con- sidered indispensable. Manure should be used liberally, however, and it should be fine and well decomposed. Simply keep the weeds and grass down with the cultivator and the table will be well supplied with a variety. —Many farmers neglect the garden, and many of them know but little in re- gard to the proper manner of growing gar- den produce. They consider the labor nec- essary for a garden too great in proportion to the amount of produce derived there- from, and will not use hoes, spades and rakes, preferring to preform all such work with horse power. It is not at all nec- essary for a farmer to inclose or set apart a plot for a garden. Every crop that is grown in an ordinary garden can be culti- vated with a horse hoe if the seed is planted in long rows, each row being sufficiently separated from the next to permit a culti- vatior to pass between tnem. The sowing of the seed with a hand drill and the use of a hand wheel-hoe may be necessary until the seeds germinate and appear, but ‘it is only a short time before the cultivator can come in, while the extra labor is but little. PURE FOOD FOR ANIMALS. —Farmers do not seem to he aware of the double loss sustained throngh the grind- ing of cobs by millers. Corn is taken to the mill at the rate of 70 lbs to the bushel. Fourteen pounds are deducted for cobs and are not paid for, but the miller grinds these with oat hulls, making No. 3 chop, which sells at $12 to $14 per ton, thus giving the miller a clear profit. This cheap chop is unhealthful and its sale should not be al- lowed. A friend of mine recently lost ten shoats and was unable to assign a cause. He called a veterinary surgeon, who found that death had resulted from clogging of the intestines with this cheap chop. The man had paid $7 for a half ton of chop and had lost $50 from its use. The manufac- ture and sale of it should be stopped and there would be an increased demand for rye, oats and corn. State (Gwange Master Leonard Rhone is investigating the matter in the State. Why shouldn’t we have pure food laws for the animals as well as for human beings ?—A. B. STEELE, Belle- fonte, Pa., in the American Agriculturist. The thistle has been extermi-’ Medical.

This statement is substantiated by the experience and declarations of men and women with whom these pills have be- come a household medicine. Among the many who can offer testimony to this par- ticular property of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills is George Marshall, Jr., who lives at No. 19 Norwich street, Cleveland, Ohio. Mr. Marshall is a news agent on the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad, and his territory extends from Cleveland to Toledo. Like thousands of others who owe their health and vigor to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, Mr. Marshall never hesitates to sing their praises. In his case it was nec- essary to use only a few boxes of the pills to restore him to the full possession of bodily health. His digestive organs had become almost useless through a long and serious illness, but in a surprisingly brief period, through the agency of this wonder- ful medicine, they were capable of again performing their functions in a regular and perfectly satisfactory manner. In narrat- ing his experience with them Mr. Marshall said : “Last spring I was taken sick with in- flammatory rheumatism, and my entire sys- tem was affected.’ To relieve the suffering it was necessary to paint me with iodine. After three months treatment I became con- valescent, but the attack had sapped my strength and left me extremely weak and feeble. I could scarcely lift an arm ora leg. This weakness permeated my entire system, and applied as well to my stomach and digestive apparatus as to my limbs. I soon discovered that I had lost my appetite almost as completely as though I never had Bradstreet’s Gloomy Review of Trade. Bradstreet’s financial news takes a very gloomy view of the business world for the last week and generalizes as follows : The business situation as a whole shows no gain. Staple lines are only fairly active. Overflows, washouts and floods, continue to do great damage in the Missis- sippi and Missouri river valleys, through- out a greater portion of which general trade remains practically at a standstill. Rainy weather extending from the central western to northwestern spring wheat states has rendered country roads almost impassable, with the natural effect upon business. As the region, threatened in- cludes the richest portion of the cotton belt, the prospect for delay in planting a second time indicates the possibility of a a heavy reduction in acreage this year, whence the advance in cotton this week. Pig iron, steel billets and cast iron pig are lower in price, and the demand for steel and 1ron is not as heavy as it has been, although the price of lake ore has been fixed at a low figure and an ore pool formed. Wheat has continued as disap- pointing as iron as to price, dropping near- ly four cents a bushel on Bradstreet’s re- port of an increase in the world’s visible supply, last week, instead of a decrease, as expected, due toa larger quantity of wheat in sight abroad. Chicago has only about held its own, little if any improvement being reported in trade there. St. Louis, more dependent on tariff with the flooded region, reports a decrease in volume of business. Jobbers at Omaha, St. Paul, Milwaukee and Portland, Ore., report a better de- mand, notably in dry goods, oils, paints, glass, shoes and leather. Prospective ad- vance in the wool tariff is behind another rise in prices of wool and woolens, but cotton goods thus far fail to advance be- cause restricted production is meeting cur- rent demand. Nearly all staples, except those mentioned as having advanced, have declined. Exports of wheat (flour included as wheat) from both coasts of the United States and St. John, N. B., this week amount to 2,036,797 bushels compared with 2,464,000 bushels last week, 1,764,- 000 in the week a year ago, 2,930,000 in the week two years ago, 1,955,000 bushels three years ago and as contrasted with 2,948 000 bushels in the like week of 1893. Exports of Indian corn amount to 4,645,585 bushels this week, compared with 4,960,000 bushels last week, 1,381,- bushels in a week a year ago, 841,000 bushels two years ago, 1,427,900 bushels three years ago, and as contrasted with 908,000 bushels in the week of 1893. Business failures remain at the lower level recently reported, 232 for this week, compared with the 212 last week,231 in the week a year ago, 225 two years ago 211 three years ago. There are 32 business failures reported from the Canadian Dominion this week, against 38 last week, 30 in the week a year ago and 26 two years ago. Beginning Early. ‘‘Shall' I have to get married when I grow up ?’’ asked little Flossie one day of her mother. “Just as you please, dear,’’ answer 1 her mother, with a smile. ‘‘Most women do marry, however.” “Yes, I suppose so,’’ continued the. little girl musingly. ‘I guess I'd better start right in and hustle for a husband now. They say Aunt Jane has been at it for 20 years and hasn’t caught one yet." ——The New York Evening Post, a rabid goldite paper, makes this candid confes- sion : “If things are allowed to remain as they are now the country, at the congres- sional elections of 1898, will very likely go for free silver.”” This is a notable admis- sion of the fact that the issue raised by the Democrats at their national convention of ’96, which has been so often pronounced dead, is a pretty lively corpse. ——The news from the Mississippi val- ley, while giving some idea of the immense area under water, likewise contains a bit of encourgement. At several points the river has ceased to rise, and it is now believed the floods will recede by the 1st of May. ——The whole of the blood in the body | passes through the heart in about thirty- two beats; in a man of about seventy years of age, about 675,920 tons of blood will have passed through his heart during his life. ——To cure a cough or cold in one day take Krumrine’s Compound Syrup of Tar.

From the Leader, Cleveland, Ohio. one. I had no desire whatever to partake of any nourishment, and the natural result was that my convalescence was extremely slow, and my parents feared that I was go- ing to suffer a relapse or fall prey to anoth- er ailment on account of my debilitated condition. ‘‘Many a day I would not take any nour- ishment, and whenever I did the quantity was too insignificant to materially hasten my improvement. Tempting dishes were prepared for me, but I could not touch them. I began to become more or less alarmed as did my parents, and one day my mother suggested the purchase of some of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for me. They had been recommended to her by a neigh- bor who regarded them as nothing short of miraculous, and dwelt so enthusiastically on their excellent qualities that mother was i persuaded to try them. There is not much | more to tell now, for I don’t look like a ‘man who cannot eat three or four square meals a day, do I? i ‘““Three boxes of Dr. Williams’ Pink | Pills fixed me up souad as a dollar, and they will do the same for anyone else, I am sure. It was not long after I began to use the pills that I could feel myself im- proving. My strength began to return and so did my appetite, and I was on the road again in a short time. That is my experi- ence, and I am glad to give it for the bene- fit of others who may have lost their appe- tites through sickness.” Dr. William’s Pink Pills contain all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are for sale by all druggists, or may be had by mail from Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y., for 50c. per box, or six boxes for $2.50. — = Her Life is Valuable. SAN FrANcIsco, April 9.—Mis. Leland ~ Stanford to-day signed the contract by which her life is insured for $1,000,000. The policy, which is said to be the largest ever issued, was written by a New York company. By the terms of the contract Mrs. Stanford is to pay an annual premium ; of $170,000, and upon her death $1,000,000 . will be paid by the company to Leland . Stanford, Jr., University.
