TE Bellefonte, Pa., June 26 1903 ee FARM NOTES. —Keep the turkey hens tame by feeding them close to the house. —When the fowls have a free range, one cock to every fifteen or Sweaty hens is sufficient. —The garden must be mellow, rich and kept clean. This is the inside seoret of saccessful gardening. —An application of hard wood ashes will sapply the soil with the potash so nec: essary in growing small fruits. —Cooping up the mother hen, and allow- ing the chickens to run around is the safest and most economical plan. —The games ‘have more meat for their size than any other fowl. They grow slowly, but are solid and firm. —Bone meal is an excellent garden fertil- izer, but it does not give immediate re- sults unless dissolved with acid. —Wooden floors close to the ground ab sorb the damp from the earth, and the atmosphere of the house is always moist. ~The longer an orchard is kept in oul- tivation and a crop taken off the greater be- comes the necessity of liberal manuring. —If it is desirous to have the greatest number of pounds of meat from the small- est quantity of feed, select the large breed. —The greater portion of the roots of the grape vine grows near the surface. For this reason the cultivation should be shal- low. —Boue meal will greatly assist the growth and development of bone in chick- ens and in a great measure oevens leg weakness. —The nests must, be net occasion- ally and kept clean. Clean, dry straw is the best nestling material. ' Tobacco i i will help to keep away vermin. ; —Middlings make a good food for poul- try, but if wet np alone it is ‘too: sticky. The better plan is to mix with bran or ¢orn and wet with milk or scalding water. ~—Whitewash ‘is better than paint on the poultry houses, for the reason that it costs less and has a purifying influence. It may be applied as often as once a month to ad- vantage. —The properties of sunflower seed are peculiar, aud a small quantity fed at the proper time will essentially aid in impart- ing to the plumage of adult fowlsa gloss that no other grain will produce. —In the garden espeoially one of the drawbacks to the germination of seeds is that they are often covered with too much earth when planted. Usually the smaller the seed the less covering is required. —-When pear trees donot grow rapidly -they shonld have an application of wood "ashes, while trimming the ends of the young branches will induce them to send out shoots and" thicken the tops. Some- times the working around the: trees with a cultivator will give them a new start. —Old strawberry ‘beds, if very: grassy and weedy, may be renovated by burning the mulch off, if the bed is mulched. This may be safely done should there be a light wind to'quickly carry the fire over the bed, as ‘rapid burning will be safer. : The space between the old rows can be deeply oulti- vated and kept clean until the rnnners staré, then cultivation must cease to allow them to take root. This is a clumsy way of doing what should have been done in the spring, setting a new bed. Do not for- get that strawberries want plenty of good fertilizers. Manure well. --‘Trees that were grafted last spring should be carefully gone over and all water Sprouts out away to allow all the sap to ow into the graft to push it vigorously. If you wish a stocky branched graft nip “the end of the young growth after it has grown six inches or more. I$ will then throw out side shoots and grow branched and stocky. Newly set peach trees should be seen to, and all irregular growth of young wood should be removed before the wood hardens. It can now easily be done, and the sap the irregular growth would exhaust will go to form a perfect tree. —If you have old trees that have failed to give profitable crops of fruit, dig the soil up Horan and then apply a good dress- ing of well-rotted stable manure and work thoroughly into ‘the soil. Then, if you " bave them, apply a dressing of wood ashes. If these fail to revive the tree after giving a good pruning it is past redemption, and should give way to something better. Good rich soil for three or four years can be pro- fitably planted to some crop while the trees in the orchard are growing, but after that the best plan is either toseed down to clover, and use as a hog pasture, or to culti- vate without allowing any crop to grow. —Two kinds of ordinary whitewash may be used to advantage, prepared in the fol- lowing manner: For inside work, to a bucketfnl of ready lime-wash add one pint of soft-boiled rice and a quarter of a pound ‘of white glue, dissolved thoroughly and ‘mixed through the mess. For outside sub- | stitute io place of rice and glue (to each pail of white wash) :a pound of common rock salt, dissolved in oiling water Thus mixed and applied apon.a bright, sunny day, the whitening will remain permanent in color and will nos rub off readil y, wil ‘while | the application to the interior will a the lice that may be secreted in the eh wall and crevices of the inside of try-house and stables, if the wash erously distributed. —One great mistake ade fruit tree planting Bi in planting in Clover sod is not so bad as a timothy blue grass sod, yet ‘no young fro tre. will do well in any soil unless it has been work- ed long enoug 2 previously to free it from grass roots, weeds, eto., and make it mel- low and fine. Some tow peach growers start their young orchard in a clover sod, plowing the intervening places between the rows and cultivating iv corn. This is bet. ter than letting the place remain in sod, though many of the trees are choked’ to death by the grass and roots. Sowing any kind of grain, either ‘wheat, rye or oats, between the trees is sure to seriously, and in many cases permanently, Injures the. trees. Only cultivated crops should be grown. If, when the trees are well grown and in heavy fruiting, it is desired to par- tially check the heavy growth of wood and foliage resulting from li manuring and good cultivation, sow cloverseed alone, and after one good crop (in rare cases, two) of clover hay has been secured, plow down the sod and put in corn, and suksequently other cultivated crops. n | Though shoulder is m of the most beautiful points FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.

The lace stock and the stockless: bodice have put an end to the stock and sash that match. So far this is all that can be said defi- nitely about the fads nd belongings of the summer girl of 1903. White embroidered pique stocks with embroidered dots in color are among the chic things. Every sort of swinging or banging orna, ment ig now to the fore—cords, tassels’ bobs and brandeburgs. Gray is one of the most popular shades among the more exclusive linen tailor gowns. ‘The natural linen tint is the one used. for the majority of the ay, made ones. * Tucked skirts, to be at their best, are in three sections, the top one fitting the hips, the second coming to the knees, the third very flaring one forms the flounce- likefoot fullness. One of the popular ideas is a yellow wall covering to accompany white enamel wood- work and the mahogany furniture of a Col- onial room. One of the foremost collectors of Colonial furniture in the world considers this idea altogether wrong. The proper atmosphere is only obtainable, in his judg- ment, in a dining-room from an old-time tapestry paper in old red effect ora land- scape in green tones, such as was used long In a bed-room,of course, the Colonial floral effects and chintz stripes are the thing. Pleating was never in greater vogue. We have had seasons in which pleated ruffles were in favor, and others when whole skirts were pleated. Now everything is pleated—even the bows on many of the hats. There is no to pleat or not to pleat | oq question. One simply must pleat. Whole dresses are pleated. even to the sleeves, and of all the pleats the accordian and the box are on the highest crest of the wave of favor. The former is the choice of many for dressy creations, while the lat- ter serves well for anything from a pedes- trian rig to an evening dress of a filmy fabric. Box pleatings four or five inches in width are much used for edging capes and the like, while for jaunty cloth suits noth- ing approaches them in favor. ‘In the skirts the pleats are stitched only to about knee depth ; a pleated bolero also has the pleats loose about the lower edge, while in the longer coats the pleats are stitched to the very edge.

Mr. Me- Intyre said feebly that he suffered great torment and that he would not advise any- body to try the remedy, no matter what the result might be. On the tenth day of the fast he endured tortures, ‘he said, ‘‘If the eleventh day had been as bad as the - tenth,’’ he added, *‘I would net have gone on, but I seemed to get some relief afterward.”” Mr. McIntyre talked with difficulty, owing to his en- feebled condition. He did not seek notor- iety, he said, but simply took a chance for his life, and the issue is still in doubt. During the last 15 days of his fast, he said, the drinking of too much water at one time produced small hemorrhages, and he bas vomited blood at periods during the day. Millionaire in a Cell. His Mother Fails to Furnish Bail and Sails to Eu- rope. Edwin D. Mooers, still under 30 and a millionaire, awoke on Wednesday in a cell in the Ludlow street jail, New York, to find that he could not sail for Europe on the American liner New York later in the day. as he had planned. His mother, who was booked to sail with him, failed to deposit $10,000 bail for his appearance in court to defend his wife's action for divorce and alimony. She sail- ed without him. Mr. Mooers was arrested on Wednesday night on West Forty-fourth street by de- puty sheriff Terry and taken to the Lud- low street jail. The affidavit of the young wife, Mrs. Dorothy B. Mooers, on which Justice Clarke issued the warrant of arrest, teems with the names of co-respondents. Mis. Mooers says that she appealed to her husband last month for a contribution to her maintenance and that he refused it and told her he was going abroad for a long time to ‘‘get rid of the whole thing.’ They were married in El Paso, Texas, March 1, 1900, and lived together until last October, when, she says, she left him for cause. Mooers first aroused New York last win- ter, though some of his exploits in Los Angeles aud elsewhere had brought him into notice previously. In Jannary, 1903, he obtained a place in the chorus of a Broadway musical comedy. He did not tray his identisy, bunt his expensive clothing and jewelry and the fact that he came to and went from rehearsals io a cab aroused curiosity. Rumors led to the dis- covery of bis identity. A friendship between Mooers and one of the principals is said to have grown rapidly, and Mooers left the chorus. This actress is named in Mrs. Mooer’s petition for a divorce. In 1899 Mooers was a student at Cornell. His father was born in Ithaca. A pro- fessor of the sollage charged that the young freshman was inviting the rofessor ’'s wife $0 supper too frequently. r he obtain- vorce and sued Mooers for $25,000 a alin for the loss of his wife’s affections. The suit is still pending, Mooers left the University and went to California. In El Paso, Texas, Mooers met Miss Dorothy B. Bowman, daughter of a clergy- man, whom he married, and who is now suing him. Towns That Were. Only afew years ago the teacher would ask : ‘“What is the capital of Montana?’ The urchin who is now the father of half a dozen urchins would reply: ‘‘Bannock City.”? There are now fewer than 100 peo- ple in Virginia City in the same State of Montana. Bodie, Cal., once had 6000 peo- le. There is not a house or inbabitant eft. The mines played out—and where is Bodie ? Springfield, Kan., was once large enough to build a $20,000 schoolhouse, and to put in waterworks, At last accounts there were 200 houses and fewer than 100 people in town, and the hydrants were hidden in the prairie grass. At Saratoga a $30.000 theatre finds none to tread its hoards save the wandering tramp. At Fargo Springs the $20,000 schoolhouse bell rings when the wind is strong, but no children come. These dead Kansas towns are the fading monuments of an error of observation as to the normal rainfall of the western part of that State. At the junction of the Savannah and Broad rivers in Georgia are now only fields of grain and grazing sheep. Yet there once stood Petershurg a regularly laid out and prosperous town of the days hefore the railroads came. Now there is not a single honse upon the site and the wheat grows where was the public square. The rail- road unmade Petersburg, as it bas unmade dozens of other towns, the remains of some of which are to be found a few miles from the line in Texas. Can’t Always Draw a Prize.
