Bellefonte, Pa., Jan. 28, 1898. FARM NOTES. THE PouLTRY YARD.—It will save time 10 select the eggs from which the chicks are to come ; that is the selection should be from hens that are strong, healthy, and prolific, the male to be one that is active and free from blemish. The cause of poor hatchers is not always due to the sitting hen, but may be traced to the parents of the prospective chicks. While it is well enough to discard all eggs that are mis- shapen, very small, extra large, or with soft shells, yet eggs from healthy and vigor- ous stock will ensure a larger percentage of chicks because they will have more vi- tality and thus be enabled to make their exit from the shells. The practice of giving a a sitting hen a lot of eggs, taken promis- cuously from the basket, is to incur a risk of loss, as eggs from very fat hens, chilled eggs (near the freezing point), or eggs from hens that have had roup, as well as those from immature pullets, are liable to cause disappointment. Take pains at the begin- ning and there will be more chicks out. of the shell and fewer losses in raising them after they are hatched. OLD HENS AND PULLETS. The pullet is the favorite with those who make eggs their specialty, but the most profitable pullet is the one hatched early in the year—not later than the middle of March. If pullets cannot be hatched early it will be an advantage to retain the hens, as they can perform satisfactory service un- til four years old. While the pullet may surpass the hen at times yet much will depend on the mode of feeding. One reason why hens seem to fall off sooner than pullets is that the hens are mature, and hence fatten more readily, the pullet being in a growing condition, and as it is detrimental to laying hens to have them too fat, over-feeding may be at the founda- tion of the difficulty. There is also an expense incurred in raising the pullet that supersedes the hen, and this cost must be considered. It is less expensive, therefore, to keep a hen two or three years or more, than to raise a lot of pullets from chick- enhood every season. CROWDING THE FOWLS. If one can secure as many eggs from a small number of fowls there is no necessity for feeding more of them. There is a temp- tation to keep as many hens as the poultry house will hold, which results in a *‘strug- gle for existence,’”’ and while some of the hens will lay others will not, the conse- quence being that the cost is increased and the profit reduced because the poultry man is compelled to feed more fowls than is necessary. It is almost as difficult to in- duce some to thin out their fowls as it is to convince them that they should reduce the young fruit on the trees, but in either case it will prove advantageous. There is an enormous loss in this country from the keeping of a large number of useless males and unprofitable hens, and on every farm may be found as many non-producers as layers. Save expense by cutting out all the unprofitable stock and thus add to the profits. It is of no advantage to keep a male Jonger than the period of his useful- ness, and when no chicks are to be hatched the males can be dispensed with altogether. MEAT FOR EGG PRODUCTION. Meat is perhaps the best of all foods for laying hens because it is highly ni- trogenous and supplies them with ele- ments that are lacking in grain. Lean meat, such as waste scraps from the buteh- er, liver, ete., will cost but little compared with the increased number of eggs that may be secured. When only grain is al- lowed the hens will be unable to convert it into eggs unless ‘‘balanced’’ by foods of a nitrogenous character. Although the price of meat is apparently high, yet one egg more per week for each hen will pay for the luxury afforded. EXERCISE AND WARMTH. Every poultry house for winter should be well lighted, or have a shed attached in which the hens can work and scratch. It is an old proverb that a scratching hen is a good layer, which is true because, by scratching, the hen keeps herself in laying condition, increases her appetite, and wards off cold. Warmth in the poultry house will always promote egg production, and to induce the hens to scratch they must not be fed too heavily.—American Gardener. —Glass gives more warmth to hotbeds than any other covering, but where plants are desired to be grown that are somewhat hardy. such as lettuce or early cabbage, a light frame covering made of oiled mus- lin answers well and is cheap. It can be prepared by stretching the muslin and painting it on both sides with boiled lin- seed oil. It is claimed that cheap frames covered in this manner, can be successful- ly used for forcing strawberry plants. If a warm hotbed is required, fresh horse man- ure should be placed at the bottom of the frame and covered with rich soil that has been sifted. —There are hundreds of farmers who are opposed to ‘‘book farming,”” who he- lieve in giving a sick cow a piece of salt beef to ‘‘bring hack her cud.” When a cow is sick she refuses to eat; it is then decided that she has ‘lost her cud,” and she is treated for its restoration, when in fact the chewing of the cud by the cow is simply the forcing of the food into the mouth from a large storage stomach to be chewed and then swallowed, the food pass- ing into a smaller stomach for digestion. Hundreds of cows, however, are treated for “loss of cud,” and their horns are bored as a remedy for ‘hollow horn.’ —The brush and currycomb are far less used on cows than they are on horses, yet they are quite as necessary to the animal’s comfort. Who has not seen cattle rubbing their sides against a fence or tree, or their backs under some over hanging limbs? It not only adds to their comfort to rub them down, but it draws the blood nearer to the surface, so that the animal is warmer. With the same feeding a well-groomed cow will keep in good condition when she would be scrawny and rawboned if not regularly curried or brushed. —To prevent diseases of potatoes add two ounces of corrosive sublimate to two gallons of hot water. Allow it to stand half a day ; then add the solution to 12 gallons of cold water. Wash the potatoes 80 as to free them from dirt and immerse them in the solution, to remain two hours ; then dry them and cut for seed. —When making a garden have a piece for herbs, such ase sage, thyme, balm, dill sweet marjoram, etc. They will always be found useful and may be grown from seed. avon itil: DRIFTING. My little talk was blown away. Tis drifting down the stream.” The incident, so brightly told, Suggests a graver theme. How many words, borne from lips, Wafted upon the air, Will go as messages of hope To those bowed in despair ? Let us have care what words we say, Like what our lives may seem, We know not what harm they may do Sent drifting down the stream. How many thoughts conveyed in words, That we may set adrift May serve in some mysterious way The sinking to uplife ? Others may do a greater work Than you or I would dream, Inspired by the words that we Send drifting down the stream. —M. V. Thomas. I— IF I KNEW. If I knew the box where the smiles are kept, No matter how large the key Or strong the bolt, I would try so hard— 'Twould open I know for me. Then over the land and sea broadcast I'd scatter the smiles to play. That the children’s faces might hold them fast For many and many a day. If I knew a box that was large enough To hold all the frowns I meet, : I would try to gather them, every one, From nursery, school and street. Then, folding and holding, I'd pack them in And turn the monster key ; Id hire a giant to drop the box To the depth of the deep, deep sea. —Dora Sexton. Points on Character. Judging by Means oy the Phrenological Manifesta- tions. Skilled phrenologists say a type of man sure to be long-lived has, besides a large brain, a large heart and lungs, long trunk and a deep-seated brain, shown by the orifice of the ear being below the line of the eye. A blue, hazel or brown eye is also a favorable sign, as are large nostrils, a long, heavy palm, aud short fingers. Children of this type mature slowly and are never precocious in their studies. If one’s eyes are wide apart it denotes a good memory, artistic temperament and a fairly honest disposition. ‘‘Saucer’” eyes are typical of the born orator or mimic. Thin, compressed lips denote soullessness, coldness, absence of affection and a venge- ful character. Corners of the mouth, when they turn upward, denote a merry disposi- tion, while downward curves show morbid- ness. All great celebrities have large noses, in- clining to the Roman type, and large ears. Large ears also belong to generous people. A short, weak jaw marks the man lacking in will, while a broad and heavy jaw shows firmness and even stubbornness. Dark hair and complexion, in races as well as in individuals, signify strength. Dark-skinned races are always behind the lighter-hue peoples in fine civilization, be- cause the physical predominates among them to the exclusion of the mental. Coarse red bair indicates marvelous physical en- durance. : Fine, light hair shows refinement ; fine brown hair, tender susceptibilities, with strength of character, while a florid coun- tenance and auburn hair indicate a high order of feeling, intensity, purity of char- acter aud a great capacity for enjoyment or suffering. Abundance of hair indicates virility and stability of temperament. Wide, round heads and faces indicate selfishness, joviality and animal propen- sities ; narrow and long heads show sober- ness and strong character. A deep thinker carries the head bent forward ; a woman capable of deep affection carries her head thrown well back. The Storm on Sunday. A Terrific Gale Blew Unceasingly all Day Sunday and was Mingled With Rrain and Sleet Throughout the State. WASHINGTON, Pa., Jan. 24—It is re- ported here that more than 100 oil rigs have been blown down in the vicinity of McDonald and Cherry Valley, and about 25 at Taylorstown. In the immediate vi- cinity of Washington probably 30 rigs have been demolished. West of Washington a derrick is hanging over a house and the family residing there have moved their goods into one end of the building. The storm is the most severe and pro- tracted that has visited this section in years, and the damage cannot be estimated. The Forest Oil Company will probably suffer the greatest loss. Part of the brick work of the west end of the big Duncan glass plant of this place was blown in to- day. The force of the wind was such as to bend the structural iron frame of the gable a number of feet, although it did not go down. The damage will reach $1,200. CorRrY, Pa., Jan. 23 — Pennsylvania trains are four hours behind time on ac- count of the snow storm, and they may be discontinued altogether before morning. The Erie trains are all late. The Western New York & Pennsylvania will probably have to cease running trains by day light. HOLLIDAYSBURG, Jan. 23.—The opera house and the gas works were partly unroofed, and much demage was done to private residences by a wind storm to-day. Trees were uprooted, shrubs blown down and telgraph and telephone wire broken. GREENSBURG, Jan. 23—The high wind to-day did considerable damage in this locality. Fences were blown down and some buildings damaged. ‘‘Aunty’’ Hun- ter, an aged woman, was caught in a gust of wind on the streets and hurled vio- lently to the ground, injuring her con- siderably. Raising Buffalo as a Business. A. B. Hammond, of the Astoria railroad, has a photograph of a band of buffalo, which are the property of a couple of half- bred Indians on the Flathead reservation, near Missoula, Mont. The original herd 11 years ago consisted of a couple of buffalo calves. It now consists of 125 head, and is about all that are left of the vast numbers which, a few years ago, swarmed over the Western plains. These men have gone into the buffalo raising business as a source of profit, and are making money. Apples as a Cure for Drunkenness. A German doctor has started the theory that most drunkards can be cured by a very simple and pleasant course of treatment, namely, by eating apples at every meal. He claims that apples, if eaten in large quantities, possess properties which entire- ly eliminate the craving that all confirmed drunkards have for drink. : : i Oyster Dishes. To the oyster lover the present recipe will prove a revelation. It is a favorite method of preparing them in the South, and can be made so quickly it should prove a boon to housewives whose hus- bands are given to bringing home guests at unexpected times. A Vienna loaf of bread is to be preferred, as it is nearly all crust. Cut off the top of the loaf and scoop out the interior, leaving it like a box. Fill up thespace with oysters and sprinkle some of the crumbs of bread you took from the loaf on top of them. Season with pep- per and salt to taste. Replace the top of the loaf, and put the whole in a dripping pan, and pour some of the liquor of the oysters over it. Put it in a hot oven and allow it to bake fifteen minutes, being careful not to let it scorch or burn. Serve hot and cut as for slicing. Some people like the addition of lemon juice as a sea- soning. OYSTER PATTIES. Oyster patties (Old Virginia recipe): Make some rich puff paste and bake it in very small pans. out upon a large dish ; stir some large fresh oysters with a few cloves, a little mace and nutmeg and enough oyster liquor to cover them. When they have stewed for a short time take them out of the pan, place upon a flat dish and set them away to cool. When quite cold lay a few oys- ters in each shell of paste. VIRGINIA OYSTER SOUP. For old Virginia oyster soup : Take two quarts of good oysters and wash them through two waters. Strain the liquor and add to it four blades of mace, some celery chopped fine, a teaspoonful of black pepper and salt if necessary. Let it sim- mer over the fire five minutes, then add a quarter of a pound of butter rubbed smooth with two tablespoonfuls of flour and three pints of rich cream and new milk, half and half. Let it come to a good boil, stirring all the time, then put in the oysters and let them boil up once, no more or they will shrivel up and be tough. Re- move the oysters, put them in a tureen and pour the soup over them. SHIRRED OYSTERS. Separate the oysters from the liquor, put the liquor in a stew pan, add one pint of water, a wineglass of cream, and one lump of butter the size of an egg and pepper, salt and bread crumbs or small crackers to taste. Let all boil together, then add the oysters and let them cook until thoroughly heated. FRIED OYSTERS. Select only the finest and largest oys- ters, drain them and dry gently with a soft white cloth. To one quart of oysters have ready three eggs well beaten and mixed with an even bulk of the richest cream. Season with pepper and salt to taste, and dip the oysters carefully into the mixture one by one. Also, have ready the heart of a home made loaf well crumbled after first being thoroughly dried in the oven. Remove the oysters from the eggs and roll them carefully in the bread crumbs so that each one will be thoroughly encased. Manipulate each carefully and daintially so that all shall come out as short, plump and smooth as possible. Now lay aside in a cool place for half an hour, then fry to the best olive oil, that must be boiling hot before the oysters are put in. Fry a rich golden brown, not too dark, or they will become tough, and the oyster flavor in a measure destroyed. When done remove quickly with a skimmer, drain thoroughly and serve garnished with | parsley and slices of lemon. Why We Do Not Want Hawaii. 1. Because the Hawaiians do not wish annexation, as the anti-annexationists pe- tition of 21,000 names—seven times the votors under the constitution of the ‘‘re- public’’—proves beyond question. 2 Because annexation means a leprous Asiatic and Kanaka population for a new State, with two Senators in our Congress. 3. Because the islands are five days and five nights steaming from our coast. 4. Because to fortify them would cost upwards of $200,000,000, and to provide a a navy to defend them would cost $200,- 000,000 more. 2. Because we control them now and have a coaling station there which can be fortified at a fraction of the cost of fortify- ing all the populated islands. 6. Because their commerce is small and incapable of great expansion, and their climate assures the continuation of the brown races forever. 7. Because they would be a burden and expense in time of peace and a danger in time of war. These are a few of the reasons against annexation. There is no reason for it, unless the greed of ringsters eager to en- rich themselves at the public expense is a reason. ‘Leprosy and loot”’—that is the case in a nutshell.— World : The Over Crowded Asylums. There are 1030 patients in the Danville hospital for the insane. There are accom- modations for only 800 and the trustees have decided not to accept any more until the legislature provides means to increase the capacity of the institution. The Danville hospital was built for patients from the counties of Carbon, Monroe, Pike, Wayne, Lackawanna, Susquehanna, Bradford, Tioga, Lycoming, Montour, ‘Northumberland, Snyder, Union, Centre, Clearfield Clinton and Potter. The Warren hospital, built for the coun- ties of Warren, Crawford, Erie, Mercer, Venango, Forest, McKean, Elk and Camer- on counties is also over crowded. ——The State Capitol building Commis- sion has adopted white marble to be used in the construction of the Capitol build- ings. How does this strike the ear of the tax payer when he considers a shortage of $8,000,000 already in the account of the State. The limit was fixed at $550,000, but how far will that go towards building a palace of white marble It opens the plans and starts a building job that will be unlimited in its cost and give the machine power to spend millions in this direction. Such power should be revoked. Looked for a Man Under the Bed. Set the Clothes Afire and Burned Herself to Death. Sarah Rutherford, of Asbury Park, six- teen years of age and an orphan, employed by Charles E. King, Sr., died Sunday at the Memorial hospital from burns received Wednesday evening while “preparing for bed. The girl carried a lighted lamp, and, in looking under the bed for a man, the lamp set fire to the clothes. The bed cover- ings were consumed and the girl was fright- fully burned. ——Don’t dally with rheumatism. Pur- ify your blood and cure it at once by tak- ing a course of Hoods’ Sarsaparilla.

The Philadelphia Record publishes the following which will be of interest to local ‘Baker heirs : “If the Jacob Baker estate of this city, which alleged western heirs of sanguine disposition have magnified to the splendid value of $300,000,000, is to be taken asa fair specimen of the great properties in and around Philadelphia for which claimants are constantly turning up, generally in the far west, somebody is making a pretty pen- ny by the deliberate deception of the inno- cent persons who figure as heirs in these fairy stories. In the Baker case these heirs have started up all over the country to claim a share of the riches which they have led to believe belong to them by right of decent. ‘“The fact is that there never was a Baker estate of any extraordinary value. Jacob Baker, it is true, had large holdings of land in this city, including almost the whole of the block bounded by Fifth, Sixth, Market and Arch streets, and a tract where Moya- mensing prison now stands. When, he died, however, some time before 1790, his property was not highly appraised, for in those times land could be had in any part neither wife nor children, so of course there are no direct decendants, as some of the ‘promoters’ would make the guilible be- lieve. All that he owned legally passed into the hands of his brothers, Henry and Samuel, and there are papers to show that the estate was properly settled.’ Some Samples of Spelling. A Jersey City druggist is making a col- lection of the queer orders he receives from people who send children to the store for things they need. Here are a few samples of them : “This child is my little girl. I sent you five cents to buy two sitless powders for a groan up adult who is sike.”’ Another reads. ‘Dear Dochtor, ples gif barer five sense worse of Auntie Toxyn for to gargle babi’s throte and obleage.’’ An anxious mother writes : “You will pleas give the leetle boi five cents worth of ipecac for to throw up in a five months old babe. N.B.—The babe has a sore stummick.”’ This one puzzled the druggist : *‘I have a cute pane in my child’s dia- gram. Please give my son something to re- lease it.”? “My little babey has eat up its father’s parish plasther. Send an antedote quick as possible by the enclosed little girl.” The writer of this was evidently in pain : ‘I haf a hot time in my insides and wich I wood like to be extinguished. What is good for to extinguish it? The enclosed quarter is the price of the extinguisher. Hurry pleas.”’—New York Sun. Food for Thought. There are some figures and facts that are always interesting, Royal Baking Powder is shown by the U. 8S. Government tests to yield 160.6 cubic inches of leavening gas per ounce, a much greater strength than was found in any other powder. The alum powders were shown to yield about 60 cubic inches. Is it not economy to use the Royal, even though the alum powders should cost but half as much ? Again, Royal isa pure cream of tartar baking powder, recommended by health officers and physicians because the food raised by itis rendered more digestible and healthful. Alum baking powders are condemned by physicians and hoards of health as unwhole- some. ly cause serious digestive troubles. Therefore there is both health and econ- omy in the use of the Royal. Is it not im- perative, the actual wholesomeness of the food being at stake, that you should stub- bornly reject the injurious and employ the healthful agent ? About Cattle. Nearly Ten Thousand Cattle Tested Last Year. The report of Dr. Leonard Pearson, state veterinarian, covering the work of his de- partment during the year, deals at length with the investigation of diseases in cattle, under the act of June 15th, 1897, was 9,- 108. Of this number, 1,839 were found to have tuberculosis, and were condemned. The percentage of tuberculosis cases was 10.39. Since the first of June 4,887 cattle have been tested, and of these 671 were found to be tuberenlous and killed, equiv- alent to 13.73 per cent. At the time of the publication of the last annual report the average appraise- ment for cattle condemned as tuberculosis was $24.42. Since the beginning of the last fiscal year the average appraisement has been $20.45. The total payment for tuberculous cattle to date amount to $57,181.15 for 2,510 for ‘2,510 animals. Since the beginning of the present fiscal year 671 cattle have been appraised at $13- 714.66, being an average of $20.45 per head, as against $22.77 per head as the average for last year. ‘Whiskers. The teacher of the Sunday school class was telling the little boys about tempta- tion, and showing how it sometimes came in the most attractive form. She used as an illustration the paw of a cat. ‘Now,’ said she, ‘‘you have all seen the paw of a cat. it?” ‘“Yesem,” from the class. ‘And youn have seen the paw of a dog?’ ‘‘Yesem.”’ ‘‘Well,. although the cat’s paw seems like velvet, there is nevertheless concealed in it something that hurts.

Bad Trip for Reindeer. Many Die on the Voyage from Hamburg to America. The steamer Glanton arrived in New York from Hamburg, after a very stormy voyage. The Glanton left Hamburg with thirty-two head of reindeer, which were to be forwarded to the Klondike region, but owing to very stormy weather seventeen died during the passage and were thrown into the sea. ‘ The remaining fifteen animals were in a very weak condition when the steamer reached port. : a 5 aan of the city at very low figures.

Itseemed to develop into hasty con- sumption. Having Dr. King’s New Dis- covery in store, and selling lots of it, he took a bottle home, and to the surprise of all she began to get better from first dose, and a half dozen dollar bottles cured her sound and well.
