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.

) APPETITE.
For the restoration of an appetite which
has been impaired or lost through sickness,
no remedy can compare in effectiveness
with. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale
People. 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.

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.
