FARM NOTES.
—1In the poultry yard waste tobacco
stems are good vermin destroyers and see
that the eggs are clean before being sent to
mar’zet. :
—An excellent mode of feeding linseed
meal to a horse is to mix half a pound with
a bucketful of finely-cut clover hay. The
clover should be cut in half-inch lengths if
possible, scalded, a little salt added, and
then the linseed meal. A quart of corn
meal will also be an excellent addition.
Mix the whole intimately and feed it
warm. When a horse is rough in coat, and
has but little appetite, such a mess three
times a week will be appreciated and will
be better than medicine. It promotes the
appetite, regulates the bowels and assists
in improving the condition of the animal.
—The gradual thickening of bark on
trees is often objected to as an evidence of
unthriftiness. But it almost always comes
on trees when they get to be of bearing age
" and except for harboring the cocoons of the
codling moth it does no harm. Scraping
this bark off through the winter removes
the protection, and the cocoon exposed to
snow and rain perishes. These cocoons
will be usually found on the side opposite
. where the prevailing wind blows, as this is
partly protected against beating rains, es-
pecially if the tree trunk leans that way.
Only the bark that readily comes off should
be readily removed. Scraping the trunk
down to the green bark will cause some
kinds of trees to sun scald and is injurious.
Make- the tree grow vigorously and the
rough bark will roll off of itself or with
very little effort.—American Cultivator.
—Some years ago a test was made by an
express company, who had 600 horses in
constant use, 25 of which were indiserimi-
nately selected for proper dental treatment
and separately weighed. Their oats and
maize were reduced to two quarts per day
each. After the first month a great im-
provement in their general condition was
apparent, continuing during the second and
third months, when they were again
weighed, and, it was found that an average
increase of 48 pounds per head was the re-
sult. The test lasted through the hot
months of July, August and September
when flatulent colic was very apparent in
the stable, yet not one single case had oc-
curred among these 25 horses! Since this
trial and whenever a car load of newly pur-
chased young horses arrives, it is con-
sidered a waste to feed them until their
teeth are examined and put in proper
shape.
As a preventive for lameness, to com-
mence operations on the teeth would ap-
pear to some very ludicrous, yet common
sense and practice would convince them
that this would be the proper means of pre-
venting interference, one of the chief causes
of lameness in your horses.
‘Young horses fully developed show signs
of fatigue and weakness after a journey,
and interfere. Some grab the quarter of
the fore foot with the toe of the hind foot,
or overreach.
In such cases the ordinary practitioner
would treat locally, possibly advise differ-
ent shoes, order tonic balls or condition
powders and a few days’ rest (the latter
would benefit mostly and give temporary
relief).
Now, supposing there were irregularities
of the teeth, as is usual with all young
horses, the first treatment should be to put
them in perfect order, so as to promote
mastication and good digestion, to enable
proper assimilation of the nutritive quali-
ties of the food, and there insure increased
strength and condition, thus removing the
original cause of the weakness.
It may seem equally absurd to some of
our readers to assert that operating on the
teeth will prevent pulling and other vices,
but that it is so is proved by the fol-
lowing incident: A pony that we treated
had changed owners for no other cause than
that none of them had been able to drive
him with ease, although various bits and
contrivances had been tried. The primary
cause must first be discovered, which in
this instance was a decayed tooth, the re-
moval of which affected an instantaeous
cure. The pony is now driven with a
plain, straight bit without a curb chain
by the present owner, an elderly gentle-
man, who appreciates the animal’s quiet-
ness and docility so much that no amount
of money could part them.— Indiana
Farmer.
—CHEAP P16 PENS.—I said that suita-
ble pens could be built for a small outlay,
so we will give a plan that will save mate-
rial if not money. Make a board fence
along one side of the lot, on the highest
ground if convenient. Make it tight and
as high as the sty is wanted. Set three
posts six feet apart and eight feet from the
fence and take twelve-foot boards and nail
onto these. This will make one side of the
sty, while the fence will make the other.
Now get sixteen-foot boards and cut in two
and nail on the ends and in the middle for
a partition. This partition says a writer
in Coleman’s Rural World, need not be as
high as the ends. This will make two sties
with but little more expense than in the
making of the fence. Make the doors
either in the ends or sides. They should
be large enough to admit a large hog, for a
man should seldom sell off his breeding
sows until three or four years old, and by
that time they will be of good size. Old
sows suckle better and raise finer pigs than
young ones, therefore, I say keep the old
sows. Three or four days before farrowing
put the sow in the sty, that she may be-
come acquainted with it, for if not put in
until she has made her bed out of doors
there will be trouble in getting her up,
and unless her pen is a staunch one, she
will tear it to pieces in her efforts to get
out to her bed. Watch her closely until
she farrows and remove all dead pigs and
the after-birth, as the eating of it may
cause the sow to eat the living pigs. The
sow should be fed sparingly, on light food,
for a day or two after she has had her pigs,
then as much nourishing food as she will
eat, for no sow can furnish milk enough for
a large and growing litter with scant feed.
The pigs, to become properly developed,
must be supplied with milk or other food
as soon as they will eat. Pigs treated thus
will pay 20 per cent. better than those that
are neglected. Care should be taken to
have each sow separate some time before
pigging, and not allowed too much bed-
. ding, as there is less danger of smothering
her pigs than when much litter is allowed.
Hogs want constant care and good feeding
from the time they can crack corn until
they are ready for market, but more espec-
ially during the winter. Make it a rule
either to feed your stock or give the busi-
ness your personal oversight. Boys and
even men who have no particular interest
in the animals to often throw the feed into
the troughs without caring to see that they
are clean. To be a successful farmer one
must be a careful farmer. Take an interest
and delight in your calling and do all
things well.—Prairie Farmer.
FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.
The little turn-over collars of linen, lawn
or muslin edged with embroidery or Val-
enciennes lace, are worn with the fashion-
able stock of satin or ribbon, and are in-
variably becoming.
The trimming of the sleeves at the
shoulders, which is most popular, is to lay
the sleeve in three folds, not stitch the
folds, but cut the sleeves a little long and
press them in folds, stitching them down
this way in the armhole.
The only strictly hygienic face tonic for
removing wrinkles is message, and with a
little study one may easily message her
own face. ‘Be careful, though to rub up,
and not down,” is good advice; use cold
cream with the message treatment, the
first application to remove the dust, the
second to soften the flesh; wipe with a soft
cloth, as the hands will have retained
enough of the cream to be smooth as you
continue the message. This is good prac-
tice just before retiring, as it is restful as
well as helpful toward effacing those lines
which are as often the result of some un-
necessary habit as of growing old. Watch
the nervous women in the cars and see how
many qf them either screw up the mouth,
arch the eyebrows or scowl. The lines
formed by these habits are interesting to
the student of character, but they are not
considered to add to the beauty of the face,
so when seeking to discover some means of
removing those already formed it would be
well to try to remove the cause by culti-
vating serenity, repose and a quiet mental
attitude instead of that intensity of feeling
which makes lines and indentations in even
a young woman’s face.
_ “A child should sleep by itself,” asserts
an authority on baby culture; ‘‘under no
circumstances with an older person or an-
other child. The mattress should be firm
but soft. For young infants a heavy army
blanket folded and laid on a spring bed is
quite enough and is much better than a
mattress, as it can be thoroughly aired,
disinfected, washed, etc. A healthy child
up to one year should sleep ahout two-
thirds of the time, and until a child is4
years old a daily nap should be insisted on.
If a child is generally wakeful during the
night, shorten its sleeping hours during
the day.
“Rocking and walking to induce sleep is
an extremely bad habit to form. Com-
mence from the first day. Place the baby
in bed, see that the hands and feet are
warm, and that there are no winkles in
clothing or bedding; darken the room and
leave the child alone. It rarely takes
more than one or two nights to train an in-
fant into good habits of sleep.
“Playing with children and excitement
of any kind shculd be avoided, especially
just before bedtime. Shaking rattles or
anything else continually before a child,
constant amusement of anykind is all very
injurious, the mind being kept in a state of
incessant activity with no rest, and paves
the way to nervous prostration of the
adult.
“A certain amount of crying is indispen-
sable to a healthy child—not a fretful wor-
rying whine, but a good healthy cry. A
baby who has not a strong cry is in a ser-
ious condition and must be made to cry,
otherwise the lungs collapse and death re-
sults.”
If you have round shoulders try the cure
which has worked wonders in the case of a
Boston woman. She began with the best
and most nourishing food she could find
because Lier physician said that weakness
of constitution is one of the first causes of
round shoulders. With that she took a
strong iron and quinine tonic and cod liver
oil capsules as well. Regular hours for
meals and plenty of outdoor exercise were
a part of her plan and a single small pillow
replaced the big downy ones to which she
was accustomed. She always had ber in-
firmity in mind and was careful to walk
very straight, with the shoulders well back,
the chin well in the air and the head easily
poised to suit a level glance.
Several times a day she held her hands
behind her back and walked up and down
the room, and varied that exercise with
one in which a book was balanced on her
head. She sat far back in her chair and
refused to bend over in writing or sewing.
In two weeks’ time there was a precepti-
ble improvement, and in a month she be-
gan to take pride in her figure. To-day
she has a back to be envied and not the
slightest hint of the round shoulders which
used to make her life uncomfortable. Of
course, it needed patienceand perseverance
to accomplish this wonder, but they were
well spent.
For the benefit of the woman who can-
not afford to patronize exclusive shirt mak-
ers, here are a few hints. Choose pink,purple
or white materials, striped, plaided or
figured, but never, unless you select white
as your color,absolutely plain; make them
up in lengthy outlines of the kind herein
described, with all the stripes going down
the figure instead of across, as in other sea-
sone; look well to the fashioning of your
cuffs and collars and insist upon a medium
long and well fitted yoke, together with
some little fullness in the front, no matter
what the fashion articles say. See to it,
when doning the waists, that your belt
swings well up in the back and tips well
down in the front, and be sure it isn’c
tight enough to cause either the skirt or
waist to wrinkle. The long lines will
make you look slender enough in any case.
Carry yourself with extra straightness and
care, because the new waist doesn’t help
out deficiencies of carriage and figure as
did the old one, and wear plain little pearl
buttons, regular shirt buttons, instead of
the studs, for which some people have been
predicting a return to popularity.
Black trimming of lace or ribbon is much
in vogue for cotton gowns. Sometimes
just a touch in the form of a velvet how on
the bodice, suggesting the Frenchman'’s
idea that a dress without a touch of black
is like a woman without eyebrows.
Crepon bids fair to be the most exclusive
wool stuff of the season. The newest ones
are plain crinkled, or dotted with swivel
polka dots of small size, in contrasting
colors.
Quarter-inch stripes of white satin are a
distinguishing feature of the smartest im-
ported ginghams for summer. Judging
from the shop exhibits, checks, plaids,
stripes and plain ones will have equal
vogue.
Violet, that ever-popular, end-of-the-
spectrum color, is to be much in favor in
dimities, organdies and piques. Combined
with mauve and pearl gray, it is being
made up into cool-looking summer gowns.
It is foolishness to make the coats of
young children of heavy material. Chil-
dren must be kept warm, but weight does
not always mean warmth, and a child
should not feel its clothes a burden.
Queer Animal Agreements.
Unlike Creatures That Get Along Very Well in Com-
mon Quarters.
An intimate connection subsisting be-
tween different animals is known as com-
mensalism, commensals being creatures
which may be said to sit at the same table,
but which do not prey upon one another.
Of late years naturalists have become ac-
quainted with numerous examples of this
form of animal partnership. In one of the
Chicken Islands, off the New Zealand
coast, a curious lizard known as the tuata-
ra and certain species of the petrels were
found inhabiting the same burrows, appar-
ently on the best of terms. In rare cases
the burrow which consists of a passage two
or three feet long, ending in a chamber a
foot and a half long, one foot broad and six
inches high, is the work of the bird. ‘As a
rule, however, the lizard is the excavator.
Each builds its its nest on opposite sides of
the chamber, the lizard almost invariably
choosing the left and the petrel the right
side. The lizard feeds partly on worms
and beetles and partly on the remnants of
fishes brought to their common table by
the petrel, both animals being thus bene-
fited by the partnership. This is probably
more than can be said of the prairie dog,
whose underground home is frequently
shared by the rattlesnake and the hurrow-
ing owl. These were at one time supposed
to form a ‘‘happy family,’”’ but considera-
ble doubt has been cast on the point by the
discovery of young prairie dogs in the
stomach of the rattlesnake, which seems to
indicate that commensalism in this particu-
lar case has been a one-sided affair so far as
the benefits were concerned.
It is among marine animals, however,
that the most striking examples of com-
mensalism have been observed. A feeble
fish called the remora owes its success in
life to the powerful alliances it forms.
One of its fins has been transformed into a
sucker placed right on the top of its head,
by means of which it attaches itself firmly
to any passing shark, whale or even ship,
no doubt mistaking the latter for some
huge sea monster. By these itis trans-
ported without any exertion on its own
part over great distances, meanwhile pick-
ing up such food as may come in its way.
Several small fishes have been found,
also, to habitually lodge in the mouth cav-
ity of a Brazilian catfish, sharing such food
as the latter succeeds in capturing. The
enemies of the small fishes are so numerous
that it is only by retreating to places inac-
cessible to their foes that they have a
chance of survival. A favorite shelter for
many small fishes is the round disk of the
larger sea jellies, the stinging properties of
which probably cause them to be avoid-
ed by the other denizens of the deep.
As many as twenty fishes have been count-
ed swimming within the fringed margin
of one of these pulsating umbrellas. The
sea cucumbers are another lowly group of
marine forms which afford shelter to fishes.
Other instances might - be given, such as |
that of the little pea crab, found in mus-
sels and other bivalve shells, which in re-
turn for the protection given them for the
molluskan shell gives its host a share of
the food it captures.— Washington Evening
Star.
Interesting to County Commissioners.
The decision of the MeKean county |
courts, that the commissioners must return
the $3.50 per day they each receive for ex-
penses while attending the state -conven-
tion, as well as other moneys paid them
for railroad fare and hotel bills while away
from the county seat on official business,
will have far-reaching effect. The court
stated that the law does not provide for i.
such expenses; and while the status may
be unjust, yet the court can only actin ful-
fillment of the law. There are few coun-
ties in the State where it has not been the
custom to allow for the expenses now de-
cided in McKean county to be without au- |
thority, and the court’s opinion promises
to revolutionize matters somewhat in the
commissioners’ office generally.
Judge Mayer, of Lock Haven has just
filed an opinion in an appeal from the Ly-
coming county auditors’ report of several
years ago, in wkich the plaintiffs alleged
certain unwarranted expenses of the com-
missioners. The judge’s conclusions inter-
est all counties and the ex-commissioners
were called upon to refund on the follow-
ing: On $31.01 that was paid for ice for the
officers in the court house, the county not
being liable; on $90 for clerks to the jury
commissioners, as there is no authority in
law for clerks; on $50 to the county audit-
ors, as they had no power to appoint an at-
torney, but should have applied for advice
to the county solicitor; on $40 for the in-
dividual expenses of the commissioners in
attending the State convention. The judg-
ment carries with it costs, which are con-
siderable, and these also the ex-commis-
sioners must pay.
——An Arkansas farmer, who was a
delegate at a convention in Little Rock,
was greeted by a fellow farmer and dele-
gate the morning after his arrival, and
asked how he felt: —
“Mighty poorly,’’ was hisreply; ‘‘didn’t
sleep a wink the whole night through.”
‘‘Why, what was the matter asked the
other.
‘There was a gol-darned light shining
in my eyes the whole night long.”’
“Why didn’t you get up and blow it
out ?’’
‘‘Blow it out?’’ was the reply. ‘‘How
could I blow it out when the blamed thing
was shut up in a bottle ?”’— Life.
Father, Grandfather or Great-Grand-
father of 162.
To be the head of a family of 162 persons
is a record seldom falling to the lot of man.
But such is the case with John Chandler,
who resides in Allen county, Ky., just
over the Summer county line.
This gentleman is the father of twenty-
nine children, twenty-one of whom are now
living and have families. These twenty-
one children have an average of five chil-
dren to each family, thus making Mr.
Chandler the grandfather of 105 persons.
But this is not the full extent of his off-
spring, for he has thirty-five great-grand-
children. So it will be seen that Mr.
Chandler stands paterfamilies of 162—an
achievement rarely equalled. It certainly
is not paralled when the fact is considered
that the members of this large family are
all living.
