FARM NOTES.
—Cut away the tops of the asparagus
and when dry burn the bed over, so as to
destroy insects. Then cover heavily with
-esh stable manure that is free from litter
1d allow it to remain until next spring.
—TLe best food for ducks and geese after
~rass disappears is a mess of cooked tur-
nips, thickened with bran, twice a day. If
the cooking is objectionable the turnips
may be sliced with a root cutter and the
bran sprinkled over them. Ducks and
geese prefer bulky food and require but
little grain when not laying.
—Colts that are foaled in the fall will
entail less cost than those that come in the
spring, as the mares will not be taken to
the fields for work at this season. When
spring comes the colts will be weaned and
can then be put upon pasture, leaving the
mares ready for service in the fields. As
soon as the colts will eat give them ground
oats in addition to the supply of milk from
the dams.
—The use of ground bone in the poultry
yard should be encouraged. With ground
bone in reach of the poultry, there is no
danger of the egg-eating habit assuming
large proportions, and it is doubtful if the
habit will be practiced at all, where ground
bone is accessible. We have noticed that
when the fowls are thus supplied they even
lose their liking for broken egg shells,
which is certainly an indication that ground
bone is effective.
. —O0ld strawberry beds may be burned
over as soon as the leaves die off, and by so
doing many of the seeds of weeds will be
consumed. The bed should then be mulch-
ed by covering with manure or straw, but
the mulch need not be applied until cold
weather comes. If the old bed is full of
weeds it will not yield satisfactorily next
year, and to burn it over will be an im-
provement in many respects.
—If pure, unleached wood ashes could
be obtained plentifully, and at a moderate
cost, they would give perhaps more satis-
factory results than the salts of potash, as
the ashes contain lime in its best form, and
serve well as a precaution against the at-
tacks of some kinds of insects. They can
be used without liability of injury on all
kinds of crops if broadcasted over the soil,
as many as 150 bushels per acre not being
considered excessive on certain seils, and
they make a better fertilizer for clover than
barn yard manure. For fruit trees ashes
cannot be excelled.
—Growers of peaches are using cow peas
in the orchards. The vines shade the land
and may be turned under when the pods
are nearly ripe or may remain as a mulch
in winter. It is more profitable to use the
vines for food for cattle, but at the same
time, if a mulch is required, it is well to
grow the mulch, especially when alegumin-
ous plant answers so well. One advantage
in growing the cow pea is that it is almost
asure crop, and lime or wood ashes may be
used as a fertilizer with it. The peach
orchard will in no manner be injured by
growing the cow pea as long as the land is
given the benefit of the crop as manure
and by plowing under.
—The lawn can be improved at this sea-
son either by raking it over until the soil
is loosened and sowing seed on the bare
places or by transplanting sed. If sod is
used the spots on which the sod is placed
should first be deeply spaded, so as to break
up the hard soil below the surface. Lay
the sod and trample it down well. If there
is a vacant spot no larger than the hand
place a piece of sod on it. By thus patch-
ing the lawn much time will be saved in
the spring, as the fall-planted sod will
grow out as early next year as that which
was already on the lawn, and it will be-
come thicker in the summer.
These state roads vary in width being 6
to 12 yards, the average width being 7}
yards. The average cost per mile is $10,-
000. For every mile and a half of com-
pleted road a roadkeeper is engaged who
receives wages varying from $125 to $200
per year. His duties are to mend all small
ruts, to brush the road in dry weather or
scrape it in wet at least once a week; also
to keep the footpaths, ditches and every-
thing pertaining to the road in a most per-
fect condition, which duties occupy him a
avout six hours per day throughout the
year. Special rewards are given to those
who are most painstaking. For every 50
miles of road there is an overseer, with a
salary of from $400 to $500, whose duty it
is to watch over his piece of road; report as
to repairs continually. For each county
there is a state (road engineer) inspector,
who reports finally to the superintendent
of roads in the ministry of the interior.
The inspector’s salary ranges from $700 to
$1,000.
—From Stuttgart. Germany, a corre-
spondent of the Haven Register, who has
made a study of the road system of that
country, sends the following results of his
observation :
All roads, excepting those streets that,
are within towns, are divided into classes
—viz, state and county roads. The state
roads are the most important thorough-
fares, connecting the larger towns with one
another, and are built and maintained en-
tirely by the central government. The
county roads are those which, connecting
the smaller villages, are built by the coun-
ty with state assistance up to two-thirds of
their cost, but thereafter are entirely main-
tained by the county.
The general way of building is about the
same for both classes of roads, except that
on state roads, which have the heaviest
traffic, the best of material is used without
regard to cost, so to say; whereas, on the
county roads material from local quarries
is frequently used. The traces and level-
ing for a new road heing completed—the
maximum grade allowed is 6 per cent,
though in some unavoidable cases it can
rise to 9 per cent—the ground is excavated
in the desired macadamization width to the
depth of 14 inches. Herein are planted
the rough quarry foundation stones, rising
from the sides to the middle, so that the
arch of the completed road shall be one-
fortieth of its width. Upon this foundation
crushed basalt or granite in pieces of a cubic
inch is strewn to a depth of from four to
five inches, upon which, as top dressing,
shell lime is liberally strewn before and
during the wet pressing by the steam
roller.
The roadbed being socompleted, a gravel
footpath of about 14 yards in width is made
on one or both sides of the road. Along-
side of these paths runs a ditch as deep as
the roadbed, which receives the water from
the road through gullies at short intervals.
A fruit, generally apple, tree, being now
planted at every 12 wvards. or 100
yards, and with the milestones, the road
is entirely finished.
FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.
Not many students of sociology pursue
their studies in the practical manner of
Miss Annie Marion McLean. She is a
young woman who has just accepted a chair
‘in the department of sociology at Royal
Victoria College, Montreal, after holding
a fellowship in the same science for several
vears at the University of Chicago. In
order to thoroughly understand the condi-
tion of women and children employed in
the large department stores, she joined the
ranks of the retail clerks during the rush
of the holiday trade last Christmas time.
She became No. 424 in one of the cheaper
shops of Chicago, sold toys from eight in
the morning to ten at night, and crept
wearily home to a $2.50 boarding house.
If you want good lemon cream mix two
tablespoonfuls of arrowroot with a little
cold water, then mix it with a pint of boil-
ing water, the juice of two lemons and a
cupful of sugar. Boil for five minutes.
Take the arrowroot fiom the fire, stir in
the beaten up yolks of two eggs, and put
the mixture in a mold to set. Turn out
and serve with the whites beaten to a stiff
froth with castor sugar as a garnish.
For late summer and fall wear black silk
coats are the thing. They are wonderfully
pretty, especially with light dresses, and
not very expensive at the present price of
silk. Dressmakers have been trying for a
long time to make the silk coat popular,
but it has never been accorded the recog-
nition it deserves. I have an idea that it
is about to score a triumph. Nothing
could be prettier than a gray skirt of the
new slate shade which is coming into fash-
ion and one of these black silk coats. The
skirt must not have a touch of lace about
it, but it may be trimmed to similate a
tunic or made into two skirts, the upper
cat in fishtail points. A white waist, as
dressy as you please, may accompany the
costume, and a hat in any degree of gor-
geousness.
Suddenly green —dark green-—has become
one of the most fashionable colors for cos-
tumes. Being adopted so late in the sum-
mer season indicates that it will be one of
the shades favored for the ensuing fall and
in all probability winter. It is at present
much seen in transparent fabrics, worn
over a silk lining of the same color. The
shade preferred is of the blottle green or
the new fuchsia green. It is a color which
has been somewhat put aside of late, and
has, therefore, all the more chance of main-
taining the favor which it already attains.
For fall wear. Sheath and habit skirts
still in high favor. An unusually attrac-
tive array of plaids for skirts to be worn
with plain bodices. No colors too bright,
nor combinations too gaudy, seemingly,
for the newest golf capes. Cotton shirt
waists of cotton corduroy, colored French
piques and heavy linen duck, to be worn
throughout the winter.
A dark traveling gown made with a sty-
lish coat or Eton jacket and a plain skirt,
braided if you wish, will be the most sty-
lish traveling gown for an October wed-
ding.
You may wear this gown all the rest of
the season, and it is the only thing that
every bride is traveling in. It should be
well made and of a medium dark color,
such as blue serge, that will stand a sea-
son’s wear. Do not get it of gray or of
cadet blue. The skirt should be lined
with dark blue silk and the jacket may
be made over white ‘satin, for this latter
lining is to be fashionable this winter.
You shou!d wear a pretty silk shirt waist
under this. or one of wash flannel, with a
silk strip in it, or a dark blue taffeta with
a red polka dot or pin stripe would be very
stylish, with a dark blue silk ribbon and
alittle white muslin turn over at the top.
These, with a small blue or black toque
or simple walking hat, will make any wom-
an well-dressed for the train, or anywhere
else, in fact.
The autumn stock is in no way connect-
ed with the gown. It is made of white
material, generally thin pique, and is so
fitted to the neck that it hooks in the back
above a tiny cape of the white pique which
falls around the neck, making a narrow
yoke. The shirt waist, or bodice, is low-
necked and is filled in by this pique yoke.
You get the idea? Why not adopt it? Cut
away the soiled collars from your summer
lawns and cambrics, your ginghams and
even your taffetas; and fill the places with
small pique yokes. which look so remark-
ably well, set inside the waist in this fash-
ion.
As for waists, the blouse style is little
seen; nevertheless with the exception of
tailor-mades there are few darts used, the
fullness thus produced being retained by
the band of the skirt or by the new girdle
which now accompanies many dresses.
These are broad, loose, and are jeweled or
beaded, and fasten at the back beneath two
clasps, continue to foliow the waist as far
as the hips, then descend to the front in a
point about six inches helow the waist.
This is the Sarah Bernhardt effect, and al-
lows the robe to be cut loose, the weight
of the beaded and fringed girdle retain-
ing the slight fullness in place. This style
relieves the pit of the stomach from pres-
sure and is hygienic as well as gracefu.l
The present sheath shape of skirts is
singularly adapted to plaids, which are
again much in evidence on the counters of
our hest retail stores. The softer colorings,
such as brown, dark gray, and a dull red
crossed by lines of coloring only a trifle
lighter or darker than the background, will
be given the preference and take the lead
in all soft long-haired goods. The bright
Highland plaids will no doubt find great
favor with young women; they are high-
priced, however, which will somewhat re-
strict their popularity.
The craving for something to drink is
strong during sickness, and the nurse is
often at a loss to give the patient that
which will quench the thirst and yet not
prove injurious. In all cases the doctor's
opinion must be asked as to the advisabil-
ity and the manner of satisfying a pa-
tient’s craving, but the following recipes
given by Woman’s Life will afford a
choice: In any illness. except diarrhoea,
barley water is a soothing and refreshing
drink if properly made. The primary
causz of its dislike by the sick is the in-
efficient washing of the barley before it
is boiled. Put an ounce of pearl barley in
a basin, fill up with cold water, allow it to
stand e minute or two, and then carefully
pour off the water. Repeat this operation
three times, and you will then have got rid
of several impurities that too often are
boiled with the barley and render the drink
distasteful. When cleansed in this way
put the barley into a saucepan with a quart
of water, sugar to taste, and a few drops of
essence of lemon. Boil until it is of the
required consistency. Do not over-sweeten
or it will not be liked.
Crop Averages. |
September Report as Given Out by the Department i
of Agriculture. ;
WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.—The September
report of the statistician of the Department
of Agriculture shows the following averages |
of condition on September 1st : Corn, 85.2,
wheat, 70.9; oats, 87.2; rye, 82.0; buck-
wheat, 75.2; potatoes, 86.3; harley, 86.7.
There was a decline in the average con- |
dition of corn during August amounting
to 4.7 points, but the condition on Sept.
1st was still 1.0 points higher than on Sep-
tember 1st, 1898, 5.9 points higher than at
the corresponding date in 1887, and 2.9
points above the .mean of the September
averages for the last ten years.
The condition of winter and spring wheat
consolidated is 70.9, as compared with 68.7
on Sept. 1st, 1898, 85.7 at the correspond-
ing date in 1897, and 82.5 the mean of
Sept. averages for the last ten years. The
condition on the first of the present month
was the lowest September condition in
twenty years. The reports from the prin-
cipal winter wheat States are, with the ex-
ception of Kansas and Missouri, slightly
better than on July 1st, but in the spring
wheat States there has been a decline of 3
points in North Dakota, 2 in South Dakota,
12 in Minnesota, 16 in Iowa and 11 in Ne-
braska.
The Department will make no quantative
estimate of the wheat crop, pending a revis-
ion of the acreage figures in the northwest
and on the Pacific slope.
Bogert Jury Could not Agree.
The Vote Stood Ten for Acquittal to Two for Convic-
tion.
WILLIAMSPORT, Pa., Sept. 16.—After
42 hours’ deliberation the jury in the case
of former postmaster Bogert, of Wilkes-
barre, charged with opening letters, was
discharged by Judge Buffington this morn-
ing. On each of the last ten ballots, it is
said, the jury stood ten for acquittal and
two for conviction. In discharging the jury
Judge Buffington said : “In face of the
farcical exhibition just concluded at Ren-
nes, it is refreshing to note that an Ameri-
can jury would, at the end of a hard week’s
work, and when all wanted to get home,
give careful attention to an important case
and remain as long as necessary to do this.”’

Their prices are right and their guarantee is behind the goods, which means many a dollar to the
farmer. The more conservative farmer wants to see the goods before he buys, and buy where he can
get repairs when needed, for he knows that the best machinery will wear out in time. Goods well
bought is money saved. Money saved is money earned. Buy from the largest house, biggest stock
