FARM NOTES.
—When a hen wishes to set she is usu-
ally fat. If you break her she will lay
five or six eggs and become broody again.
Let her get rid of her fat. Give her one
egg, let her stay on the nest two weeks,
give her plenty of water, feed her once in
two days, and then break her up. If you
must break her, however, get a coop with
a slat door, slat sides and open every-
where. Let it be raised a foot from the
ground. Place the coop in an exposed lo-
cation, where she can see everything
around her. Being disturbed and not be-
ing able to warm her airy nest, she gives
up in disgust.
—An exchange says:— Whatever a farmer
proposes to do next summer, he should pre-
pare for it now. The farmer has much the
same line of work the yearreund. It pays
very well, too, if cows are properly se-
lected and intelligently cared for. It should
be remembered that if a cow that makes
five pounds of butter a week is worth the
keep, one that makes six pounds a week
will pay a profit and one that makes only
four pounds is a loss to her owner every
day she kept. The cow that makes
seven pounds a week will make twice as
much profit as the cow that makes six
pounds, on the assumption that the five
pound a week cow only just paid her keep.
It is studying out problems of this kind
and acting accordingly that makes farm-
ing pay.
—Individual cows differ, for which rea-
son there are no rules that can be relied
upon with certainty as being adapted for
all. The following, which have been given
before, will be found useful: 1. Long,
large udder, broad and elastic. 2. Soft,
mellow skin on udder. 3. Large barrel,
with broad ribs wide apart, and firm mus-
cles in abdomen (denoting excellent feed-
ing capacity). 4. Broad loins, with long
ramps and lean hips. 5. Long neck,
clean-cut face and large eyes. 6. Soft,
velvelty skin on the body and especially on
the ramp. 7. Well-formed teats, stand-
ing well apart. 8. Prominent tubes un-
der the belly, extending from the point of
the udder, having the appearance of cov-
ered ropes, and sometimes known as ‘milk
duets.” 9. Mild expression. 10. In-
aptitude ro fatten.
—The rotation of crops is one of the most
important matters connected with farming.
It is well known that unless soils are ex-
ceedingly fertile they will not bear a suc-
cession of the same products except by a
corresponding loss of the particular sub-
stances taken up by the crops from the
soil, and even with the best soils it is only
a question of time when they must begin
to give evidence of the effects of the use of
the same crops year after year. This is
due to the fact that each crop demands its
selected food. Clover prefers lime and
potash, grain requires an abundance of
nitrogen and phosphoric acid, and some
crops remove foods in their stalks and
leaves which are not in excess in the seeds.
When crops are rotated the plant food is
taken away more uniformly, and there is
no loss of any particular substance, while
leaving the soil richer in other materials.
Rotation induces the farmer to adapt his
crops to his soil, and leads to excellent
preparation, the selection of perfect seed
and thorough cultivation. Land that is
suitable for a large crop of clover may be
deficient in capacity to grow corn because
potash may be lacking, but such condition
seldom occurs unless the land has been
kept in the growing of clover for several
years. Again, the clover plant, by bring-
ing up potash from below and adding nitro-
gen to the soil, may make the land all the
better for corn, in which case itis the
proper crop to rotate with corn, but where
corn and wheat follow each other for years
the result is that the yields are smaller
with both crops. The result depends upon
the condition of the soil and the proportion
of plant food of each kind ready for use of
the crop. Land may not be enriched by
rotation, but diversity of crops lessens the
liability of exhaustion.
—Spraying is essential for fruits and
some vegetables, and it is most effectual
when it is done early in the season. The
sooner the work begins the better. Spray-
ers are now made of many different designs,
and solutions can be carried in barrels on
wheels or on the back in a contrivance
similar to a knap-sack. Spraying is in-
tended not only to prevent diseases of fruits
and vegetables and to protect the trees and
plants in that respect, but it is used also
as a safeguard against insects. A fungicide
is a solution used for destroying parasitic
fungi, such as rot, mildew, blight rust, ete.
An insecticide is used for the destruction
of insects. Of the well-known solutions
that have been tested and found efficacious
may be mentioned the bordeaux mixture.
Blue vitriol (sulphate of copper) is the
principal substance used in its composition.
Dissolve six pounds in four gallons of hot
water and then dilute to sixteen gallons.
Slake four pounds of lime in six gallons of
water in a separate vessel, and when cool
strain it into the copper solution. Use
wooden vessels, and apply the solution im-
mediately after mixing. Another copper
solution, known as ‘‘Eau Celeste,’’ is made
by dissolving two pounds of copper sul-
phate in four gallons of water, adding three
pints of ammonia and then diluting to 50
gallons, applying as soon as made. ‘‘Am-
moniacal copper solution’’ is made by using
carbonate of copper instead of thesulphate,
and carbonate of ammonia. Dissolve three
ounces of carbonate of copper in a gallon
of water and a pound of carbonate of
ammonia in the same quantity of water
separately. Mix and dilute to 50 gallons,
applying when mixed. The above are
“fungicides.” For insects the kerosene
emulsion is mostly used. Shave one pound
of hard soap in half a gallon of boiling wa-
ter, and when the soap is dissolved remove
the boiling water from the fire and add half
a gallon of kerosene, churning briskly with
the force pump of the sprayer for 15 min-
utes until the mixture has the appearance
of thick cream. Kerosene will not mix
with water, but will form an emulsion
with soap. Now add slowly, stirring well,
or mixing with the sprayer, from 10 to 15
gallons of water, according to the ntrength
desired. It will keep any length of time
and destroys insects on trees and plants, as
well as fleas, lice, ete., and does not injure
plants like unadulterated kerosene, being
also much cheaper. A gill of spirits of
turpentine will improve the emulsion if
added at the time of adding the kerosene.
An efficient sprayer should throw a fine,
mist-like spray, and the spray should
spread over a large surface, so as to enable
one to do the work quickly and thorough-
ly. Crude petroleum has also been discov-
ered to be excellent if used in January.
FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.
‘““What's the matter with my complexion
that it is clearing out so delightfully?”
said the girl. “Well one thing is that I
am eating brown bread; yes, quantities of
it; course brown bread, and it is doing me
a world of good. Then, of course, I am
eating plenty of fruit; an orange before
luncheon, usually, and I have commenced
my spring medicines.
“Never heard of them ? Well, guess you
never had a grandmother. I am taking hop
tea, and I shall take it for five or six weeks
every single night. I take it just before I
go to bed, and that is comparatively early,
for I am trying to put myself in good order
generally for the summer. Mama says my
hop tea is Lent tea, for I am always taking
it in Lent. That’s a good time, too, when
you are getting a little rest.
‘“‘How do you make it? Well, you take
three tablespoonfuls of hops—the German
hops are the best—and pour about a pint of
cold water over them in some nice earthen-
ware dish, if you have one-—don’t use tin
or iron—and then let it get hot and steep
from fifteen to twenty-five minutes. If the
water heats quickly, fifteen minutes will
be enough. Sometimes in earthenware it
takes longer. It smells se nice and is so
clean that you cant help feeling that the
hops are doing you a world of good.”
The proper waist to he worn with a tailor
suit must be of French flannel. Taffeta
waists for morning are quite gone out.
Taffeta evening waists, fussily trimmed are
a different matter, but the ordinary tucked
or corded taffeta or the fancy silk produc-
tions of the home dressmaker, which was
the proper selection last winter for morning
affairs, is dead, absolutely. Tke lighter
colors are more fashionable, and have the
double advantage of being passable for in-
formal evening wear or matinee use if you
like. White ones are considered correct for
teas of the less elaborate order, and white
and pale blue and pale pink and lavender
are the usual selections of the ‘‘smart’’ dem-
oiselle for morning calls and the midday
lunch downtown or the limited shoppinc
trip. The plain colors, strange as it may
seem, are a shade dressier than the faint
strips and plaids and figures. After all,
white is the mostserviceable for all around
use, and it cleans much better than the
colors. The damsel who is more pratical,
however, and busier, and does not intend
spending all her spare moments or change
rejuvenating soiled waists orders a hunter’s
green or a sage, or red or cadet blue or
pavane—which is old-fashianed salferino or,
magenta revived—or, best of all a medium
tone of castor or fawn. For next to a white
waist with white or black touches at the
neck, a castor and black combination is un-
excelled. Gray I have not seen frequently
though there are so many gray tailor-
mades. If the whole is redeemed by a crush
collar of coral or turquoise the effect is
charming. The plaids are made up straight
polka-dots and small fleur-de-lis and other
figures are becoming common, except for
that one golfing exception and a braid or
ribbon-trimmed waist is an abomination to
the smart girl. On the contrary she orders
them made very simply, with fiat backs,
long shoulder-seams, long, tight sleeves and
little fullness in front. One model has a
fitted back, two bias bands, stitched, wide
apart at the shoulders, touching at the
waist line, laid out for ornamentation.
Stitched bands alternating with clusters of
tucks form a yoke effect in front and orna-
ment the upper part of the sleeve, which
has no gathers at all and hugs the arm
closely to the wrist, where it flares into
bell cuffs. The belt is forced very far down
in front, far below the waist line, and the
very smartest woman do not pouch their
blouses, according to the latest ad vices from
Paris. The girl looks as if she had been
melted and poured into her waist except
for the slight straightness between the bust
and the very low belt. It is rather hard to
keep these low belts in place. The skirt
must be cut out in a great curve so that it
will slip down far enough over the stomach
and a long black toilet pin jabs it to the
corset, The belt itself must be moored by
a similar pin and then oneis tolerably sure
that the unnatural waist line will stay.
The figure thus produced includes fat wide
shoulders, low bust, long slender arms,and
a very long waist line in front. ‘When you
add to this the eared collar, puffed hair, a
slender, trained skirt and high heeled shoes
you have the typical smart figure of the
winter of 1900.
Gloves and shoes for the street are the
same old story. Heavy stitched pique,
men’s own, single clasp for the hands. Dull
kid—enameled leather if you want to be a
little dressier—laced, rounded toes (just a
sensible, not an ugly round) and straight,
large heels. Tips straight across, of plain
or enameled leather. The proper tailor-
made purse is the one milady has slipped
from the side of her saddle, the convenient
little affair of calf or pig skin, with a strap
through which you slip your two fingers,
and your monogram in gold on the outside.
In case this is not roomy enough for shop-
ping a much larger size is carried.
I think of marriage, writes Sarah Grand,
as I think of life; it is pretty much what
people choose to make it. It does not fail
when husband and wife have good princi-
ples,and live up to them;and good manners
in private as well as public—not to men-
tion high ideals. When we are not happy
in the intimate relations of life, it is gener-
ally for some trivial reason—as often as not
because we don’t take the trouble to make
ourselves agreeable as because we fail in
other duties. I consider it a duty to be
agreeable. Marriage is the state that de-
velops the noblest qualities, and that is
why happily married people are the best
worth knowing, the most delightful to live
among.
Thissaying about beauty being only skin
deep seems to mea very shallow, skin-deep
saying, for what is beauty ? It is the out-
ward and visible sign of health, and this is
almost essential to success in marriage. A
rounded figure, a clear complexion, bright,
laughing eyes—these things, evenif they
were not good in themselves, are good as
showing that their possessor is one who is
likely to have happy, healthy children.
Then, we should remember that beauty
of the highest kind is, as it were, a veil
which covers the beauty of holiness, the
beauty of a good disposition, and this leads
us to think of character as being the most
important thing to consider when we ask
ourselves whom we ought to marry.
In a large majority of cases headaches
arise from a state of general debility or
nervousness, brought about by overwork,
overstudy, carelessness or a sedentary life,
and though medicine is often indispensable
in building up the health the surest and
most agreeable remedy for freeing the head .
from pain will be found in leading a con-
tinuous out-of-door life, with plenty of
nourishing food, some light and congenial
occupation, and, as far as possible, freedom
from care and anxiety.
The Twentieth Century.
The Scientific American Fully Explains the Situa-
tion
A great many of our readers have been
asking when the twentieth century begins.
The following article from the Scientific
American, not only answers that question,
but gives some other interesting facts :
The twentieth century begins with the
first second of the first hour of the first day
of Jan. 1901. Just at the very nick of
time when the twentieth century begins at
the international date line, the nineteenth
will still be enveloping, as it were, the en-
tire globe; but twelve hours afterward, it
will be the twentieth century on half the
earth and the nineteenth on the other half;
twelve hours later the nineteenth will have
entirely passed, and the twentieth will
have made its first circuit round this ball
on which we live. Thus it takes a cen-
tury a full day’s time to get complete
possession of affairs, and from the time of
its very beginning to the point where its
last trace appears occupies just 100 years
and 1 day.
The twentieth century will open on
Tuesday and close on Sunday. It will
have the greatest number of leap years
possible for a century—twenty-four. The
year 1904 will be the first one, then every
fourth year after that to and including the
year 2000. February will three times have
five Sundays; in 1902, 1948, and 1976. In
1901, Decoration day, Fourth of July and
Thanksgiving day will occur the same day
in the week. Then, after that, the same
thing will happen at the following in-
tervals: 6, 11, 11, 6, 11, 11, and so on,
years; or in 1907, 1919. 1929, 1935 and so
on. In the years 1912, 1940, 1969 and
1996, there are four holidays that will fall
on the same day in the same week; the
three already mentioned and Washington's
birthday anniversary, as also the 29, of
Feb. Thanksgiving day aod Christmas
will occur on the same day in the week in
1906, and then at successive intervals of
11, 6, 11, 11, 6, 11, years, and so on; also
in 1928, 1956 and 1984. March 4, will fall
on Sunday in the inaugural years 1917,
1945 and 1973.
The same yearly calendar that was used
in 1895 can be used again 1901, after which
at successive intervals of 6, 11, 11 years
throughout the century; that for 1890
again in 1902 and at intervals of 11, 6, 11
years; 1821 again in 1903 and at intervals
of 11, 11, 6 years 1892 in 1904 and at in-
tervals of 28; 1828 in 1904 and at intervals
11, 11 years; 1894, in 1906 and every
28th year thereafter; 1897, in 1909,
and at intervals of 6, 11, 11 years;
1898, in 1910 and at intervals of 11, 6, 11
years; 1872 in 1912 and every 28th year
thereafter; 1876, in 1916; 1880, in 1920;
1884 in 1924; 1888, in 1928; in the last
four cases, also at intervals of 28 years.
