FARM NOTES.
The farmers of the United States were at
one time greatly discouraged over the low
price of wool, and the number of sheep was
rapidly reduced, but the disaster that farm-
ers were compelled to meet was really one
of the blessings in disguise, as they discov-
ered that they had depended solely upon a
product of sheep, instead of making sheep
pay in several ways. While there are
many farmers who believe that the fine-
wool sheep are profitable, yet the majority
of those interested in sheep are turning
their attention to the mutton breeds, which
not only produce wool, but also grow to
large size, afford superior lambs for market
and enrich the land. Investigation of the
sheep industry by the Department of Ag-
riculture shows that this country does not
supply itself with mutton. In four years
Canada sent over 1,500,000 sheep to this
country, valued at $5,000,000, and this im-
portation of mutton sheep still continues,
although a heavy duty must be paid there-
on, while Canadian mutton is also pro-
duced on higher-priced feeds and lands
than prevail in this country. During the
past year over 175,000 sheep came in from
Canada at Buffalo alone. It isnot true
that sheep are suited to inferior lands only,
as they will give a profit on valuable land,
which is demonstrated by the fact that in
England and Scotland, where rents are
high, the best lands are devoted to sheep.
In this country the average is about 25
sheep on 1000 acres, while in Scotland the
average is 1380 sheep per 1000 acres, Eng-
land sustaining 680 sheep on 1000 acres.
In this country we have made wool the
special object in keeping sheep, but in Eng-
land and Scotland the wool is secondary,
the object being choice mutton and the use
of mutton breeds only.
Compared with the quality of the mut-
ton sold in the English markets this coun-
try is deficient. Occasionally a prime car-
cassis sold at high prices on the stall of
some leading market, and yet the same
quality of mutton is found in every market
in Great Britain; in fact, the mutton sold
here, coming as it does from cross-bred
merino and common sheep, would be al-
most unsalable in Europe, and yet we have
allowed the opportunity of securing large
profits to pass by in the vain effort to make
wool pay instead of mutton. Fortunately,
our farmers are fast becoming aware of the
mistakes of the past,and the best specimens
of Oxfords, Hampshires, Shropshires and
other breeds of mutton sheep have been se-
lected in England and imported into this
country, with the result that with fewer
sheep than ten years ago the value of the
sheep in the United States is greater than
ever before. Many experiments have been
made in feeding the mutton breeds in order
to give farmers full information regarding
their use, the Iowa Experiment Station
having conducted a series of experiments
so valuable that the Department of Agri-
culture is sending out bulletins of the re-
sults to all sections, which will no doubt
greatly assist in fostering the breeding of
mutton sheep. It is not to be overlooked
that farmers must abandon the belief that
sheep are self-supporting, as the keeping of
sheep on hill-sides and with liberty to roam
at will, producing wool but inferior car-
casses, is not profitable compared with pro-
viding the sheep with shelter, good pastur-
age, grain and special care when the lambs
come in. It is possible that more expense
must be incurred with the mutton breeds
than with the fine-wool sheep, but the
profits will be larger and less land will be
required for obtaining the same profit as
would be derived from inferior sheep.
It will pay to feed sheep liberally, so as
to secure the greatest weight in the short-
est space of time. An Oxford ram, 2 years
old, will weigh 400 pounds, live weight, if
pushed from the start, and yearling rams
often reach 300 pounds, but they must
have rich pastures and given plenty of
grain. A full allowance of hay will be suf-
ficient with but little grain, but some of
the mutton breeds will consume over two
pounds of grain each per day. An experi-
ment with lambs showed that 109 lambs
of various breeds consumed 34,501 pounds
of food in 90 days and gained 4678 pounds,
while seven selected individuals of the
breeds consmmed 23,792 pounds of food
and gained 3281 pounds. The gain was at
the rate of one pound increase in live weight
for each 7.37 pounds of food (dry matter)
of all breeds tested, and one pound for each
7.25 by the seven special breeds, the food
consisting of corn, oats, bran, oil meal,
turnips, mangels, pea hay, clover hay and
timothy, the average gain being a little
over half a pound a day. The cost of the
gain in live weight was 2.88 cents per
pound for the selected breeds and 2.93 cents
for the others. This does not include the
fleece, labor or manure. The lambs sold
at $4.75 per 100, live weight, and the year-
lings at $4.25. Shropshire yearlings dress-
ed over 62 per cent. Where early lambs
are gotten into market the prices received
are sometimes very high, and the growth
of the lambs is promoted by liberal feeding
and care. The object in calling attention
to the mutton breeds is to show the im-
portance of feeding lambs and sheep in-
stead of depending on cheap lands and
scanty pastures. One breeder reports that
it paid him to feed three times a day, but
it is not necessary to devote so much time
to the flock. In summer give the sheep
good pastures and grain; in winter feed a
variety of food, using plenty of hay and
- grain, and give them comfortable quarters
at night.
—It has been demonstrated that heifers
fed on bran, clover and an occasional ration
of linseed meal will grow much more rap-
idly than when given corn or cornmeal,
though they will not be as fat as those
which may be allowed corn. The reason
is that bran, clover and linseed meal con-
tain a large proportion of the elements that
produce muscle and bone, the food there-
fore promoting growth rather than fas, al-
though they also contain sufficient fat and
starch for the supply of the animals.
—Last year it was made known that the
fruit buds on peach trees could be retarded
in opening by ‘‘whitewashing,”” and last
spring the results were very satisfactory.
The trees are sprayed in December, with
three subsequent sprayings in order to
keep the trees whitewashed. The whiten-
ed buds will remain dormant until April,
but if not sprayed they may open in Feb-
ruary or March. The cost is about 10 cents
per tree, When whitewash was used 80
per cent. of the buds passed safely through
the winter, while only 20 per cent. of those
not whitewashed survived. Make the
whitewash of four parts water and two
parts skimmed milk, with enough freshly
slaked lime to have it of a consistency that
will permit of sprying it on the trees.

FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.
True politeness is perfect ease and free-
dom. It simply consists in treating others
just as you love to be treated yourself.
In order to keep the teeth in good con-
dition absolute cleanliness is necessary,
and they should he brushed night and
morning with some good powder. Here is
an excellent one : Take half an ounce each
of powdered orris root and prepared chalk
and add to them one teaspoonful of bi-
carbonate of soda. Mix thoroughly. The
soda acts as an antacid and neutralizes the
acids of the mouth, while the chalk and
orris are gritty enough to remove any
particles of food which may cling to the
teeth.
Washing the hands in cold water in win-
ter time will always make them coarse.
Always take lukewarm water and and a
few drops of henzoin, ammonia or borax.
Use oatmeal in place of soap occasionally,
as this bas a whitening effect.
Have you noted the clever new hoods on
many of the capes and ulsters? It is in
reality a cape turned up three inches round
the shoulders and run round with a long
cord ending in tassels. When the cord is
unloosed the arrangement hangs as a point-
ed hood. One in deep blue, with yoke of
heavy black lace, is bordered with sable.
In plaid homespun there is no trimming
save the cord. The cheapest is $75.
The most prominent tints in the cate-
gory of the new fall shades are willow-
green, banana-yellow, peri-winkle-blue,
bronze-brown, an effect produced by ming-
ling peacock-colorings with mulberry red-.
dish-purple and many shades of helios.
Automobile red will be popular also. For
tailor gowns, however, gray takes the lead,
as it did during the summer. The shade
used iscalled graphite gray. It comes in
beiges, camel’s hair, long-haired cheviots
and serges; also in broadcloth. These gray
gowns are for street and church wear, and
are made up in jacket and skirt style or in
princess shape. Contrary to all that we
have been taught to expect by leading de-
signers and dressmakers, skirts remain
without fullness or draping. In other words
the top of the skirt is still glove-fitting,
though the length, even of tailor-mades,
has increased, and the fullness at the lower
edge is more pronounced than ever in real-
ly handsome costumes. The flounce en
forme is a prominent feature of some of the
broadcloth gowns. It is not the Dewey
flounce, with which we are familiar, but a
circular addition about fourteen inches
deep and is added beneath rows of cloth
strapings or of soutache, and is recognized
as a flounce, only by sharp eyes. As for
waists, the blousestyle is little seen; never-
theless, 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 ac-
companies many dresses. These are broad,
loose and are jeweled or beaded, and fasten

Some Attractive Desserts.
FLOATING ISLAND.
was considered a company dessert and was
always served in the very best glass dish
that the family possessed. To make it,
take one quart of rich milk and put it on
to scald in a porcelain-lined sauce-pan.
Take the yolks of five eggs and beat them
until light then add a teaspoonful of vanilla
and two tablespoonfuls of granulated sugar.
When the milk has reached the boiling
point pour it over the yolks and stir well.
Stand away in a cool place. Shortly before
the dessert is to be served begin to beat the
whites of the eggs. Add to them two tab-
lespoonfuls of granulated sugar and a tea-
spoonful of currant jelly, and beat all to-
gether for half an hour until the whites are
so stiff that they will slide readily from the
dish on which they were beaten. By this
time the custard will be perfectly cold, then
put the whites over the top in moulds.
BROWN BETTY.
Select tart, juicy apples for this dessert.
Slice and spread a layer over the bottom of
the baking dish, then spread over them a
layer of bread crumbs, a teaspoonful of su-
gar, some lumps of butter and some ground
cinnamon. Over this put another layer of
sliced apples, bread crumbs, ete., adding
layer after layer until the dish is full, the
top layer being of bread crumbs. Overall
pour a cupful of water and put into a hot
oven until well cooked and browned. Serve
with fairy sauce or with a wine sauce if
preferred. Serve hot.
CARAMEL CUSTARD.
Take the yolks of five eggs and beat them
until well mixed. Add to them two table-
spoonfuls of granulated sugar and some
grated nutmeg. Pour over them a quart of
scalding milk and put into a baking dish
and bake. Serve cold with a sauce made
of caramel. To make this, take a cupful of
sugar and put it on the range until it melts
and browns. Do not add any water to it,
but afew drops of lemon juice may be used
if desired. Serve cold.

restrict their popularity.
“The shining morning face’’ must have
originated in Shakespeare’s imagination, or
merely had reference to soap and water
luster rather than the reflex of spiritual
content, for there are surprisingly few men,
women or children who get anything like
a shining face until the morning has merged
well into the afternoon. To get out of the
bed on the wrong side is said to be respon-
sible for much of the gloom that clouds the
morning countenance, but I believe it is
due more to habit than any particular ex-
traneous circumstance governing it.
Women more than either men or chil-
dren are most prone to this morning dis-
temper, and the girl who comes to break-
fast really bright and happy is a rarity, as
the members of many households can testi-
ty. She gets up cross, she has either over-
slept or not slept enough. She finds the
house too cool or the day too hot; she
wants muffins when they have rolls, and
answers grumply the greetings of the other
members of the family. She is nota joy-
ous item of the early day and her father is
glad to escape to his office to avoid the
lowering looks and slovenly appearance
that will all be changed by the time the
evening meal arrives. He knows, but it is
awfully unpleasant while the period of
semi-wakefulness is on.
husband has to bear the burden of this
same trait, and it does not the more endear
him to her, that is certain. Let her fight
against it at its first appearance, resolving
that if she cannot be as obviously pleasant
as in the evening she will at least presenta
cheerful countenance and secure for herself
a shining morning face that will be an in-
spiration and not a depression to those who
must look upon it at the breakfast table.
One cannot help noticing that the smart
milliners are trimming autumn hats with
soft breast feathers instead of with the
quills we wore last season. The breast
feathers are soft and downy and far more
beautiful in themselves than the stiff quills.
No one will grieve that quills have been
supplanted at last. For many months they
had it all their own way.
When we speak of clean hands in every-
day life we are using only a relative term.
Washing the hands with ordinary soap and
water leaves the hands clean to all appear-
ances, but they are still covered with
microbes. In surgery, and for that matter
when a wound or sore is dressed by any
person the hands should be absolutely
clean. Mikulicz recommends the German
official spiritus saponatus, consisting of
potash soap, 10.2 per cent; pure olive oil,
0.8 per cent; glycerine, 1 per cent; alcohol,
43 per cent, and water, 45 per cent. This
is used—undiluted—by scrubbing the
hands, without previous washing with wa-
ter, for five minutes. This soap solution
does not hurt the skin, saves time, is not
poisonous, is odorless and is cheap.
Every woman who wants to look chic
should remember that nothing brings out
that effect so effectually as a touch of black.

Killed Instantly, Another Will Die and the Third
Badly Injured.
While three women were driving down
{ Maysville Park hill, at Shamokin, late
| Sunday night, the horse ran away and the
' conveyance upset. Mrs. I. Goodman was
| instantly killed. Mrs. Anna Belter’s left
: arm was fractured and her head badly cut.
She will die from her internal injuries.
Mrs. Czenskie’s head was seriously out and
bruised and her left arm was broken.
The victims are residents of Mt. Carmel.
Mrs. Goodman’s husband isa prominent
physician and is the Republican candidate
for Coroner. Mrs. Czenski’s husband is a
hotel keeper, while Mr. Belter isa well
known resident. The men and their wives
drove in two single carriages to Shamokin
Sunday. They stopped at Springfield on
their way home, and shortly before the ao-
cident left Springfield, the women being in
one carriage, while the men occupied the
other.
Mrs. Goodman, being an expert whip,
drove fast, and soon left the other carriage
in the rear. On a steep hill leading to
Maysville Landing, the horse ran away.
At a sharp curve the carriage upset, throw-
ing the women out. Mrs. Goodman struck
a telephone pole, and her neck was broken
and head crushed. Her companions fell on
her body.
The second carriage drove up, and when
the men discovered the victims they were
almost crazed with grief. They summon-
ed help, and the dead and injured were
carried into the park keeper’s lodge until a
Shamokin & Mt. Carmel trolley car arriv-
ed. They were then taken to Mt. Carmel.
