I STD Bellefonte, Pa., April 25, 1902 FARM NOTES. —For the destruction of fungus growth use the fungicides, such as Bordeaux mix- ture. For sucking insects use the kerosene emulsion. For biting insects use Paris green. —Rake the lawn and sow grass seed if the plot has bare places. Also rake off the dead grass and dig up any weeds that are perennial. Do not mow the lawn too soon. —The small white onions for pickling, may be seeded now. They are usually grown from seed, the seed being sown thickly in the rows. It required but little labor to grow the small onions, and more than a sufficiency for the use of an ordi- nary family can be secured on a small plot. —Whitewash is one of the cheapest sub- stances that can he used on trees, and it is easily applied. It will also improve the appearance of the farm if used on build- ings. Slake the lime with boiling water and thin it to the desired consistency with skim milk and it will be more desirable than when reduced with water. —Many aie of the opinion that young turkeys are destroyed mostly by exposure to dampness, but the fact is that the largest proportion of losses is due to the attacks of the large gray louse on the heads, necks and bodies. They differ from the well- known red mites, and are never seen ex- cept upon examination of the bodies. Such lice go from the mother hen to the young. The remedy is to anoin5 both mother hen and chick, with a few drops of melted lard on heads and necks, using the lard caun- tiously, as any kind of grease is injurious to chicks. —Many of the tests at experiment sta- tions have shown better yields from plant- ing corn moderately early rather than very early; from planting a larger number of kernels per acre than most good farmers think advisable; from planting small growing varieties in rows closer together than is best for large varieties; from giving shallow and level cultivation rather than deep and ridged cultivation; from planting rather shallow early and deeper in late planting. Other trials have seemed to show that very frequent cultivation does not repay its cost. —When putting cuttings in the ground leave as few buds as possible above the ground. When the rootlets are thrown out below the surface of the ground they begin to supply food to the buds above, and the more buds the greater the work placed up- on the rootlets, in many cases the cuttings dying because the buds cannot be nour- ished. The entire effort of the roots should be concentrated upon one bud, or not over two. The soil should also be mellow as the sticking of a cutting into hard and compact soil is to rob the roots of food and moisture. Plant the cuttings deep in fine, noh -soil, and should it be necessary water them until they are well started in growth. —Prof. Fred Card's experience is that, taking all things together, nothing seems to be better for covering the wounds made in pruning than common lead paint, which is closely followed by grafting wax. The wax is superior to paint in the matter of healing, bust it does not last as well, and is not so convenient to apply, although in warm weather when it works well, there is little trouble in this regard. Coal tar is useful in preventing the wood from check- ing, but appears to be a positive hindrance to healing, so that, in spite of the fact that it stays well, there is little to recommend it. Pine tar is no aid to healing, being apparently a trifle detrimental, while it helps only slightly in the matter of check- ing, and does not last well, therefore it has nothing to recommend it. Shellac is a failure. It does not last, and neither aids the wound in healing nor to any appre- ciable extent prevents it from checking. —If one desires to secure fertile eggs early in the season there are certain pre- cautions to he taken. The hens should be induced to exercise as much as possible. ‘To secure this end there is nothing better than to have abundant litter. and scatter ‘whole-grain in it, so as to compel the hens to scratch for their food. The food should contain at least 10 per cent. and 20 per cent. would be better, of animal matter. Whether the animal food is ground green bones, beef scraps or animal meat is not of 30 much consequence as that animal food be given. Probably if the hones have plenty of lean meat adhering to them, they are the best to nse. : Beef scraps I have used in preference to -other animal foods, because they are al- ways obtainable at seasonable prices. Some So-called animal meats are apt to be too laxative and their use requires more care than most pounltrynien are willing to give. If a mash is given for one meal, it should be fed warm, not hot, and the addition of a little sulphur will be found beneficial. The eggs should be gathered regularly, and frequently if the weather is cold in order t¢ prevent their being chilled. While .an egg will endure considerable cold. yet even a slight chill may prevent it. from hatching, and it is always ‘‘hetter to be safe than to be sorry” in such matters. The fresher the eggs the stronger will be ‘their fertility. While eggs sometimes will ‘hatch when six weeks or two months old, they are much more likely to hateh if nos more than one week. If they must be kept, their fertility will tend to be pre- Served by turning them over every day or two, If eggs are purchased for hatching and .gome from a distance, they should be un- packed promptly, putin a cool place and .allowed to lie undisturbed upon their sides for from 24 to 48 hours, according to the «distance they have traveled, before they are placed under a hen or in an incubator. Experiments have shown that the jarring dncidental to travel to some degree dis- places the contents of the eggs and that a period of rest is necessary to secure the proper readjustment of the contents. eglect to give traveled eggs the requisite ‘rest is probably responsible for not a few «complaints regarding their being fertile. A rotten egg is one that has been fertile, Not a few complaints are made that the eggs were infertile because al er incubation they were rotten. But their rottenness proves exactly the reverse. An egg which has never been fertilized will be as odor- iless after three weeks incubation as it was .at the start. The sweetness may not prove ithat it was never fertilized hecanse it is (possible that fertile eggs may be so injured that the germ never starts to grow, but rottenness proves that there was a germ which began to grow but died during some period of the incubation.—H. 8. Bab- TTTUFOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. The black and white craze is still on. The new Paritan stock collar, with stole ends, is a great favorite. : Magpie combinations in very delicate ef- fects prevail in veilings. Tan and sage green are to be the only permissible colors for tub gowns, with white, of course, favored before these. Stiff collars are quite passe for separate waists. Soft effects are far and away in the lead. Irish crochet and tatting hold full sway in the lace world. Grapes and cherries are among the smart- est hat trimmings of the hour. Decidedly the elbow sleeve is the pre- dominating oue for summer, both for high and open-neck gowns. Row after row of machine stitching is omitted from the silk bands used for trim- ming this spring; just one row top and bot- tom is prefered. Mrs. Emma E. Forsythe, whose father was an American and whose mother was the daughter of a Samoan chief, is the rich- est woman in the South Pacific Islands. She lives on the Island of Neu Pommern, where she has a plantation of 120,000 acres. White duck frocks are much more fash- ionable than pique, but the swelless of all are the white linens than which there is nothing cooler. These linens are trimmed with bands of embroidery and lace and are made as much like the cloth tailor gowns as possible. They are made with the coats long or short, but also have very smart waists. One model is entirely in fine tucks with a square yoke of lace and small tucks on undersleeves of lace. Noth- ing very mew about it perhaps, and yet just as neat and attractive as can be imag- ined. Indeed, in the fashions for midsam- mer frocks there are two distinot styles to choose from, these simple, rather severe wash frocks and the very elaborate lace and muslin gowns with ruffles and fichus or flounces, and with ribbons and all sorts of trimmings, giving a very picturesque ef- fect. There are many very good people, people of irreproachable character, who are never liked, because of their want of tact. They are hospitable and like to entertain, but they ask known enemies to a little family dinner. They expose all their little house- hold economies to their guests. They never ‘‘spoil a story for relation’s sake.” If guests are of differing religious or poli- tios, they introduce the subjects and give most decided views which do not convince and only irritate. A lady is told that her hat is unbecoming, or a man that he made a bad speech. They never have any appre- ciation of the fitness of things. Tact is of great importance if one wonld be agreeable to retain friends. A man without tact can never exert a strong infla- ence. He can never become a great leader. Tact is needed in every calling in life. Constant nagging at the children wrecks much domestic peace and frequently many a heart-ache is caused by making much ado about nothing. Especially do not re- prove a child at the table for a breach of etiquette if you cau correct the fault by telling him’'quietly by himself. Bringing rebuke into the current of a meal makes the family uncomfortable and spoils the do- mestic pleasures which should characterize the gatherings around the family board. An authority on modes say that sleeves are in a very transitory state, and that great changes will be seen in their shape by next fall. Should this prediction come trae, there is this to be remembered that sleeves, while important, are not a large part of the gown and can he easily changed without injuring the mode. Any capable seamstress will, in a few hours remove a sleeve and substitute one to her patron’s liking. The floffy sammer girl can look forward to sleeves that are close upon the shoulder and to make this closeness more conspicu- ous the seam is a little low. At the sam time the Gibsonian shoulder is seen, and the collars that are very wide give broadness to the shoulder. All the lace collars project a little over the sleeve, and there is a consequent squareness. The uppers of the sleeves are tight and made tighter by cording and tucks, and by bands of ribbon, and every device that can render them snug. They are the fat wom- an’s horror, for her arms must be stuffed into these flesh-like outlines. But at the elbow the whole scene changes, and then comes the fullness that amounts to baggi- ness in many cases. The briar stitching of pale blue with black knots will give a charming touch to the pongee blouse. The girl whose hair is of any shade that justifies it being termed red should not, it is said, wear pink red or bright yellow un- der any circumstances as these colors accent- tuate the red tones in her hair and present an unbecoming contrast. On the other hand, the auburn haired girl may indulge to her heart’s content in all the golden brown shades that bring out the ruddy gold tints. She may also wear light and dark shades of blue and green, dark purple, gray, white and a bliosh cast of lavender. Cream colored caleimine, resembling enamel, is now much preferred to tiles for perfectly appointed kitchens. This does not discolor like tiles or drop ont, nor have interstices to collect dirt as tiles do. One lucky chef with a kitchen of calecimine, white enameled woodwork and fixtures in keeping, asserted that he could stand in the middle of the kitchen and thoroughly cleanse it with strong steam from a hose without harming a single thing. A table of dainty vet inexpensive candle- sticks in the second-floor halls of country houses, after the English style, is now a fad of fashionable folk. Nothing costly is considered good taste, just plain pressed glass ones or china decorated in Dresden flowers or a quaint pottery piece or two. The snrprise of the snmmer fashions is in the 15-gored skirt, surely the highest nanber of hreadths yet put into an evening gown. The use of this multiplicity of gores is to produce a slender effect. It gives a careful fic around the hips, which less-gored skirts cannot attain. If the work is well done it would seem that the skirt has been modeled on the figure, fit- ting like a sheath. There is plenty of full- ness and bouillonee about the ankles. The fullness is kept in the right place by means «cock, in. American Agriculturalist. of the “*15-gore’’ system.
