Bellefonte, Pa., August 23, 1901. —Overfeeding is expensive and barmful, especially in summer, with young stock. When an animal has bowel disease the cause is more frequently too much food rather than any particular kind. —When black knot makes its appearance on cherry trees there is but one remedy for eradicating it, and that is to cut off the af- feoted parts and burn them, so asto pre- vent spreading of the spores. Spraying is excellent to assist in preventing black knot, bus fire is the surest remedy. —Shade trees along the roadside can be made profitable, as the walnut, hickory or cherry may be used. Trees along the road gives greater value to the farm, being orna- mental and useful. The most attractive and desirable farms are those which show that the owners have given the roadside their at- tention. —When using insect remedies keep in view that the Bordeaux mixture should be resorted to against fungus diseases, the kerosene emulsion for insects that suck juices (such as plant lice) and Paris green for those that knaw or bite (potato beetle). Kerosene emulsion will injure some plants, however, unless well diluted. —To kill weeds on lawns or other places where it is not desirable to dig them up, | several methods are used. Piacing salt on the crown has given good results, and so *has pouring a little kerosene on them. The surest remedy for their destruction, how- ever, is to pour about a teaspoonful of sul phuric acid on each plant. —Red raspberries propagate by sending out numerous shoots or suckers, which may be taken up and transplanted, but the black cap raspberries are propagated by tipping the ends of the canes in the ground. When the tips take root, which they will do, they are cut apart from the parent plants, the latter resuming the upright posi- tion, while the young plants from the tips become new and independent plants. —The red rust on raspberries is a fungus which rapidly spreads to healthy plants. Every hill which has shown signs of it should be rooted up and burned. The ge- lection of young plants should be made cautiously, as disease may be brought from elsewherc. If all diseased plants are re- moved as soon as indications of the rust are noticed the difficulty may be checked, but spraying with Bordeaux mixture shoald also be done. —To give harness a good finish first sat- urate the leather with as much oil as it will take, and then sponge the harness with a thick lather made of castile soap. When dry wipe gently with flanel and follow in the same manner with a solution of gum tragacanth, which is made by boil- ing half an ounce of the gum in two quarts of water, boiling down to three pints, stir- ring freely while it is on the fire. When cool apply it lightly on the leather. —The: following is an excellent test for determining when cream is sufficiently ripe for churning. Litmus paper turns red when exposed to any substance that is in the least degree acid, and will show a biue color if the substance is alkaline, It will cost but a trifle and can be obtained of any druggist. Simply immerse the end of a slip of litmus paper in a sample of the cream, and if on its withdrawal the color changes to a bright red then the cream is sufficiently ready for churning, but other- wise it is not ready. —Soapsuds will destroy plant life if used around trees and vines, especially, the aphides that work on the roots. The suds may be sprayed on the leaves as well as thrown on the ground. Whale oil soap suds are used to destroy scale, and if a lit- tle crude 2arbolic acid is added to the suds it will be all the better. For asparagus and celery soapsuds are excellent,and when thrown on the manure heap they assist in preventing loss of ammonia. If soapsuds are to be thrown away it will be an ad- vantage to throw them where they will prove beneficial. —With all the remedies suggested for blight on pear trees, the difficulty still ex- ists, and many pear orchards are destroyed every year. At one timeit was believed that by keeping the orchard ground iu grass the pear trees would escape, but while the rapid growth of the trees seems favorable to attack of blight, and although the grass may retard attack, yet the trees sooner or later succumb to the disease should it find its way into the orchard. The spraying of trees, or treating the trees at the roots will confer benefit, but there is no sure remedy for blight. —Buckwheat is a profitable crop and thrives on profitable soil. It is what may be termed a summer grain crop, as the seed is broad casted in June and the crop har- vested before the frost. Itis grown as a green manurial crop or for the grain. It provides an abundant forage for bees when in blossom, though some do not claim the honey therefrom to be of the highest quali- ty. Being of rapid growth, buckwheat crowds the weeds and prevents them from growing, and as it shades the soil it is re- garded as one of the best crops that can be grown for that purpose. —The bodies of dead animals are convert- ed into fertilizer by some farmers, but something depends upon circumstances as to the advisability of so doing. If an ani- mal dies of some contagious disease, and is buried, the earthworms will bring to the surface the germs of the disease. This fact was demonstrated by Pasteur, the famous French chemist, who made tests in that direction. Disease was communicated to animals that ate grass that grew over the body of a buried animal. The better plan is to concume the hodies of diseased ani- mals, or subject them to a bath of sulphur- ic acid, after death, in order to destroy the germs of disease. —Disease of plants in pots is sometimes due to accumulation of acid in the soil. Placing the plants in new, fresh earth is one of the remedies, but as some plants will not bear removal the use of hot water is re- sorted to. First stir the soil as deep as it can be done and pour water at a tempera- ture of 140 degrees on the earth in the pot until it raus off clear trom the bottom. At the beginning the water will be clear, then brown, and then again clear. The sickly plants will be invigorated and will soon show evidences of improvement. Keep the plants in a warm location until the soil be- comes somewhat dry again. Desirable Articles at That. Rich widows are the only desirable sec- 00d-nangd articles on the market.—Chicago es. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. They talk about a woman’s sphere, As though it had a limit; There’s not a place in earth or heaven, There's not a task to mankind given, There's not a blessing or a woe, There’s not a whisper, yes or no, There's not a life, or death, or birth, That has a feather’s weight of worth, Without a woman in it. Do not rub and serub your face with a harsh towel every day, under the impres- sion that such scrubbing is ‘‘good for the skin.?” The face, if washed carefully, nev- er needs the scrubbing process. It should be washed in the morning, and again at night, with soft water and soap of a very good quality. A piece of fine flannel is good for this purpose; put plenty of soap on, and make a creamy lather over the skin. Then wash the face thoroughly with clear water, so that all trace of soap is removed, and gently dry the skin with a soft towel. Rough treatment, strong soaps and hard water are all injurious to the skin of the face, for it is of very tender structure, be- ing composed of layers of tissue more deli- cate than the web of the finest lace. These layers lie one above another, and are nourished by a marvelous system of nerves and minute veins, and kept pliant and smooth by numerous oil glands, which ex- crete a delicate oil for this purpose. It will readily be understood, after learn- ing this, that rubbing vigorously with a harsh cloth is not the way to treat the skin of the face or neck. The hair is to be worn low, says Dame Fashion. We see provisions made for the change of style in hats and bodices, and oc- casionally a particularly up to date maid appears in public with locks arranged low on her neck. Whether the fashion will be a ‘‘go’’ time alone can decide. Certain it is that it is much more diffi- cult than the high dressing—and that it takes much more youth, beauty and hair to carry it off. The Millinery Trade Review the other day interviewed a hair dresser on the sab- ject. This lady, just from Paris, was en- thusiastically in favor of the new mode. : There are many elaborate new low coif- ares. Even to the children has the fancy for re- viving old fashions been extended, and now the square cropped hair, familiar in pic- tures of children taken forty years ago and seen occasionally during the last year, has been generally adopted in smart circles. It is said that its revival is due to the French painter and illustrator, Boutet de Monvel, whose pictures of children are highly popalarin Paris. His favorite type is the chubby faced, snubby nosed, piquant and smiling boy or girl, with the bair cut straight behind the ears. If the boy has a low forehead, his head is adorned by what the grandmothers of the present generation termed a topknot. This is a lock of hair rolled and tied into a puff by a pudgy bow orribbon. If the forehead is high, it is more likely to have a fringe nearly to the eyehrows, cut as square as the hair behind. The dress of the same period bas return- ed also, and the fashionable child seems to beall body, as the waist of her dainty frock reaches almost to her knees, the skirt being a mere - ruffle not more. than six or seven inches deep. A wide sash with a vast how surmounts the skirt, and short white stockings and ‘ankle ties’’ ¢lothe the little legs and feet. The effect as a whole is quaint and pic- turesque. : All summer linen gowns have been the prime favorite at the fashionable resorts and even now with fall near at hand they are still being made up. A chie frock of brown linen is cut by a tailor, with a rather scant skirt. The Eton jacket is bound with black silk, and it also has the seams, and sleeve seams ornament- ed with this outline stitching in black. Under the Eton jacket is worn a blouse of fine white muslin. It does not button down the back, but in front as usual, al- though the buttons and button holes are concealed under the fly front. A long and wide black silk scarf is knotted about the throat, and the ends hang down in front. The up to date bolero is furnished with sleeves, and these are quite wide and gen- erally flowing. Lace is the proper medium in which to carry out this stylish model. Any thick material would be inappropriate. There is a bard and fast line for the ter- mination of lace bolero sleeves. They fin- ish exactly half way between elbow and wrist. The same model can be executed in fine batiste. The all over embroidered batiste is as costly as piece lace for a blouse or holero. Still it is used, as is the plain batiste, because it is- so beautiful and so well adapted to the purpose. A. coarse looking canvas with a weave resembling “‘gunny bagging,’’ and called burlap, is made up by a London tailor into morning frocks for American girls to wear at Newport. The color of burlap is slight- ly grayish, just enough off the white to re- semble some granites. Burlap makes a cool frock, and it has ‘“‘body’’ enough to stand up well against ‘‘mud and weather.” It is made into strictly tailor made gar- ments, and no trimming whatever is ap- plied. A brilliant golf green or Vesuvius red necktie, with the yard long ends which distingnish this season’s cravats give color, if color is required, to the burlap frock. In order to preserve a graceful figure, | good walking and a correct balance are es- | sential. Very few people know how to walk gracefully. The shoulders should be thrown back, the spine should be straight- ened aud the back, just below the waist line, curved inwards. The leg swing freely from the hip joint, and the weight of the body should be thrown upon the balls of the feet, not upon the heels. Correct walking means a light, elastic, springy step an freedom ‘of action. If you walk correctly | you will not get. easily tired and the exer- cise will be beneficial to the whole frame, bringing the muscles into vigorous action and | aiding the proper circulation of the Your boy looks cool and comfortable in his white ‘‘jumper,’”’ an ample blouse of white duck, in which his neck is unvexed by high starched linen collar. The white blouse and white trousers, white hat, white stockings and white shoes is at present the favorite b of lads at Newport, and in environs by sea and land of that delightful sg in some respects inimitable snmmer re- sort. ; : . — ~——Having fully relieved the emer: genoy in South Africa, the Missouri mule ia now being shipped to the Klondike to haul gold. man, and drinks of cold. water, black tea, ‘of ginger in two teaspoonfuls of water. ‘Green’s. should | a corresponding sense of Some Recipes Worth Trying. | Good ginger beer, properly made, not on- ly serves as a delicious summer drink, but | posess valuable medicinal qualities as well.

The board has recently issued its casto- mary annual circular of information, print- ed in English, French, German and Italian says the New York Medical Journal. It ad- vises that if a feeling of fatigue, dizzi- ness, headache or exhaustion occurs the person should cease work immediately, lie down in a cool and shady place and make cold applications to the head and neck. A person overcome by the heat, says the oir- cular, should immediately ‘be removed to the nearest shady place, and the. collar of the shirt or dress beloosened. The nearest physician should be sent for, also a police- or coffee given, if the person is able to swallow. If the skin is hot and dry, the person is to be placed in a sitting posture with the back supported. and the body and limbs are to be sponged or affused with cold water, pounded ice wrapped in a tow- el or other cloth being applied to the head. It the person is pale, very faint and with a feeble pulse, he should be laid on his back and given ammonia to inhale ‘for a few seconds,’ or, by the mouth, a teaspoonful of aromatic spirits of ammonia or tincture Cold water should not be applied to the head or bedy, but the back, the hands and the feet should be rubbed and warm appli- cations made to them until the circulation is restored. For the latter purpose mus- tard, a tablespoonful to a quart of water, is recommended. In the main, this advice is probably as good as could be given to the general public, but we should hesitate to trust the average man with the administra- tion of ammonia by inhalation. ASTOUNDED THE EDITOR.—Editor S. A. Brown, of Bennettsville, S.C., was once immensely surprised. ‘Through long suffering from dyspepsia,’’ he writes, ‘my wife was greatly ran down. She had no strength or vigor and suffered great dis- tress from her stomach, but she tried Elec- tric Bitters which helped her at once, and, after using four bottles, she is entirely well. It's a grand tonic, and ite gentle laxative qualities are splendid for torpid liver.” For indigestion, loss of appetite, stomach and liver troubles it’s a positive, guaranteed cure. Only 50c at { | No New Orleans Molasses. ‘“There is now practically none of the old-fashioned New Orleans molasses of which we were all so fond in our boyhood days,”’ said Emile Janin, of New Orleans. “Its disappearance is due to the general use of the centrifugal process manufactuor- ing sugar. In the old days sugar was made by open kettle process. The juice of the cane was hoiled over a slow fire and in the course of time some the liquid ery- stalized into sugar and that which remain- ed in a liquid state was molasses. It was fine, sweet and rich. It is a bard article to find in these days, when the sugar is made by whirling the liquid at marvelous speed, so fast, indeed, that you can look at one of the machines and fail to under- stand that it is moving at all. ‘The molasses and syrup of today are mostly glucose, and strange as it may seen, New Orleans is one of the largest consum- ers of glucose in the world. Glucose is made from corn. It is sweet, though not nearly so sweet as the juice of the sugar cane, and is the most indigestible thing in the world, The dealers of New Orleans are responsible for the immense consump- tion of glucose there. An investigation made some years ago by the Sugar Ex- change developed this. It was discovered that they added about three barrels of glu- cose to each barrel of molassef and sold the mixture as New Orleans ‘molasses. There were tricks in that trade, too. The test for molasses is to ran a stick into the bar- rel and pull it out quickly. If the liquid is bright brown color and has the right taste, it is good molasses. If it .is dark, it is full of dirt and is poor molasses. “An enterprising chemist discovered coloring matter, and soon had a big mar- ket for his product among the molasses dealers. One of them gave the whole thing away through carelessness. He had two consignments of molasses on the levee, one fifty barrels of high grade mo- lasses and the other fifty barrels of very poor molasses. He told a negro to go out and ‘‘dope the molasses,’’ and later, when a customer came along, took him to the levee to test the stuff. The customer ran a stick into the barrel aud when he pulled it ont the molasses was perfectly white. The negro had doped the good molasses as well as the bad. The Sugar Exchange heard of this, and, as the result of an in- quiry, adopted a rule expelling from the exchange any member who should be caught ‘doping molasses.” Died of Fright. When Drs. Matthew K. Elmer, Henry Elmer and Joseph Tomlinson, of Bridge- ton, N. J., were about to perform an oper- ation on Isaiah Wentzell for appendicitis they found their patient cold in death. Mr. Wentzell on Sunday last was taken ill with severe pains, and on Monday call- ed in a physician, who diagnosed it a case of aggravated appendicitis. Thursday afternoon was set for the time to operate. The patient worried consider- ably about the ordeal, and it is believed he was frightened-to death: Only Her Eyes Hungry. A little girl ate her dinner with so good an appetite that by the time dessert was placed on the table she could ‘eat no more.
