a Bellefonte, Pa., August 21 1903 FARM NOTES. —Rutabagas are a good late second crop. —Bordeaux mixture has proved a reli- able remedy for potato blight and rot. —It is now generally conceded that the silo is the most economical way,everything considered, of utilizing the corn crop for the dairy. { —After a orop of early potatoes has been taken off barrow over and sow to clover as a catch crop or cover crop instead of leav- ing the land bare to leach out during the remainder of the season and you are adding to its power of retention of moisture as well as gaining by the addition of nitrogen, says J. E. Price in American Cultivator. —If your hens have scaly legs do not allow them to remain in that condition. Mix one teaspoonful of coal oil with §wo or three of lard, or in that proportion, and thoroughly grease the shanks of the afflicted fowls. This will kill the mites that canse the trouble. It isa good plan to prevent the trouble by greasing the shanks of the whole flock occasionally. i —Some men will use the hoe so that the top layer of soil is cus off clean and gather- ed up with the weeds that may have been the chief object of the hoeing. The surface remaining will be hard and smooth—quite the reverse of what it should be. 'Cultiva- tion should mean a stirring of the surface, making it fine. If this be:done in loamy soil shortly after a rain it will not break into large lumps. —There is some rough land on almoss all farms where it would pay better to plant nats, both for timber and for muts for market; than anything else. A large farm with such trees set on the roadside, per- haps 30 feet from the centre of the road and 25 feet apart, would sell enough nute an- nually to pay the taxes and leave a surplus for each picker sufficient to pay for the picking. Just why farmers should neglect to care for such trees and suffer loss cannot be explained. —Weight is the main object of the farm- er in fattening stock for market, and this weight is easiest obtained by feeding corn in order to produce fat. Farmers have long been taught by experience that fat is a desirable quality and that it adds to the attractiveness of a carcass on the stall. If has been demonstrated at the experiment stations, however, that the weight can be secured at less cost, with a greater propor- tion of lean interspersed with the fat by feeding nitrogenous ration, which means that in addition to a liberal supply of corn, an animal should receive a variety of food that is not so rich in oil, starch and sugar as corn. This fact is worthy of considera- tion. —The best cider is made from the best apples, and there is great difference in the quality made from the good,and that made from the bad. Some farmers are as careful to select apples for cider as they are to assort them for market, and their cider is always sold as soon as made. There isa difference in the flavor of cider made from the separate varieties, the rejected crab- apple being considered the best for the pur- pose, but the quality is greatly improved when only perfect, sound crab-apples are used. It may safely be said that one rea- son why the crab-apple is more preferable is because it is less subject to disease, and therefore fewer impeifect ones get into the press. ; =f the sow is not free from vermin when she farrows, the master of correcting this should be attended to as soon as possi- ple after the pigs are able to run abou, writes a correspondent of New England Homestead. When I find a spot back of the ear on the point of the shoulder well covered with small lice I coat it with a lit- tle melted lard, rubbing the lard along the backbone. This will very shortly destroy the lice. I find it also advisable to put lard on her shoulders, under her hams and around the root of her tail. Lard is best when the pigs are young, as it does not in- jure the skin of either the sow or pigs. For the best growth of the pigs the sow should come to her full milking capacity gradually, then the pigs will get a good share and receive their full feed without injury. It will sake a week or ten days to get the sow on full feed. The number of pigs will, of course, to a great extent govern the amount of feed she will consnme. —During the extremely warm months stock oftens suffers for shade. In some sections the persimmon tree, which does not deprive the land of fertility, as do some kinds of trees, are planted for the purpose of furnishing shade, and every pasture should be supplied in some manner. Sheep are 80 sensitive to warmth that they begin grazing very early, in order to avoid the excessive heat of the day, and their second meal is often deferred until after sundown. When deprived of shade they suffer severe- ly, and should disease attack them they do not recover as quickly as when they are not exposed. Hogs, especially if in good condition, often perish from excessive heat, while the cows will fall off in milk. If there are no trees in the pasture erect sheds. It is not necessary to have them close. Four posts, with a roof, will be found bet- ter in the summer than anything else, as the stock will be then also sheltered from the rain in stormy weather. When a num- ber of different kinds of stock are allowed in the same pasture it is best to have sev- eral sheds, in order that they may not crowd. A few poles, with brash thrown over them, is better than nothing, but it is best to protect against the rain with a tight roof. ‘ —With spring or summer onions the use of 200 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre in conjunction with potash and phosphates, with a light dressing of :aanure, has given a better yield than with a heavy dressing of manure. Commercial fertilizers without the manure gave much less satisfactory re- sults than with the manure. With parenips, as with carrots, potash seems to be especially desirable, the yields being increased from one to one and a half tons per acre when this fertilizer was used over plats similarly fertilized, but without potash. In the case of early potatoes the heaviest yields have becn obtained by the use of twenty-five tons of manure per acre. With the late crop hettec yields have been ob- tained by using half this amount of manure supplemented with commercial fertilizers. In the experiments with potatoes the nse of potash has regularly resulted in increas- ed yields. The increase, however, has been much less with early potatoes than with late potatoes. Potash has proved especially desirable for summer spinach, and particularly so on plats which were not manured. Rhubarb dressed with commercial fertiliz- ers when raw was far more crisp and tender and required less time to cook than rhubarb - grown by the aid of manure alone. Se ne FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. For cracks in walls, ceilings, eto., flour and whiting mixed into a stiff paste will be found an excellent remedy, standing the test of years. Fichu effects with long ends are the cor- rect thing in evening wear. A foremost fashion authority declares that lase, width and ‘fullness are to be the leading characteristics of the modes for autumn. Long, tailor-made jackets are to be favorite top coats with the coming of cool weather. Collarless effects will still be la mode the coming season. Two small stole ornaments, in lieu of lapels, is the newest idea for jackets. Gold braid, tinsel, passementerie and gold battons—in fact, everything military—will be Ia mode. Broad shoulder effects will retain all their present popularity. Very full sleeves, shirrings and plenty of material will mark the correct evening wrap. A hopeacking stock edged with macrame is among the smartest advance offering of autumn neck- wear. A very new idea in separate top shawl effect. Those bailing from Paris closely resemble a German officer’s cape, while the American idea is the West Poin cape. White is still first favorite, but gun- metal effects in new cotton vestings are the next best thing for the correct winser shirt waist. The pouch front is to be rather cautiously treated at first until it is known whether or not milady approves of its reduc- tion in size. . Pleated, gathered or otherwise full skirts Seunisd destined to continue the proper thing. To start rose slips fill an old pan with to a depth of an inch and a-half ; set where the sun will shine directly on the slips all ‘day, and keep them thoroughly wet all the time. Do not allow them to dry out and you can raise nine out of every ten. Rough stuffs will hold their sway for the smart street costume. For the very dressy ‘robe de ville'’ broadcloth will be much in evidence. Navy blue, violet and black will be the shades most employed for the plain cloth costume. Blue and green will be foremost among the color combinations. Green will play an important part as a trimming for the fall and winter fashions. Quantities of buttons, especially small gilt buttons, will be employed in decorating both coats and gowns. Sailor bate, with very low crowns, are the shapes for the fall. For the more dressy hat, the shape has changed very much from the regulation shape of the past—for want of a better name, we would call it ‘‘scoop’’ shape. The flowers that will be used for hat decorations will be roses, but the shades will be most curious. They will begin with the orchid pink and deepen to dark heliotrope in somber color tones. The uses of ammonia in the household are many. In cleaning of any kind it should be used in the proportion of one tablespoonful to a quart of water. It makes the water softer than rain water. Smoky lamp chimneys, window panes and mirrors all respond quickly to am- monia. When a stain is produced by lemon juice or any other acid, nothing is so ef- fectnal as ammonia in neutralizing and thus removing it. A few drops to a pint of water sprinkled on the roots of house plants will produce an abundant growth. Stains on marble can be removed by rub- bing them well with a tooth brush dipped in powdered chalk and ammonia. Makers of modes are quite agreed upon one thing—the coming coat shall have capes ! One cape will do, as is noted upon some of the choicest advance models. Thia single cape is of a round shape, rippling at the edge, and just turns the shoulders ; that ig, it reaches little if any more than half- way from the neck to the belt. That is the single cape, and it may be plain or trimmed with braid, lace applique, strap- ping or other modish material. Double capes enjoy the same vogue, the lower one heing a trifle deeper, the upper one shorter than the single one just de- scribed. For a long coat it is tremendously effec- tive to have the fronts extended into stole- like ends, the lower one being the longer, of course. As for triple capes, they be- long to two sorts of garments—either the very plain or the very ornate. For the first sort the cut is of the simplest and trimmings are only conspicuous by their absence. Triple capes, as they will be seen on ornate attire, simply bafle description. There is no limit to their possibilities and they may be of the material much adorned or they may be of laces, chiffons, fringes and all the fascinating fabrics which the conturieres so well known how to manipu- late. One does not hesitate to state that there are few finishes more generally be- coming, as these capes, properly cut, hide equally well a tendency to adiposity or to angularity. Diamonds cut out of cloth make a very modish trimming for a blouse or a dress. Speaking of early autumn fashions, a writer in Harper's Bazaar says that elabo- rately trimmed gowns are to be avoided, also brilliant colors and markedly original novelty goods. When a costume has to be worn for two or three seasons it is a great mistake to choose anything that is in the least Gonspicuous. Dark colors are best, a light gray or tan and a simple design. If in the second season a gown looks shabby, braid, bands of taffeta or rows of black veivet ribbon can be used, and a trans- formation accomplished. Black, very dark blue and brown are the three most eeonomie-' al colors to choose from, aud any one of the three may be made to look like new the second season by a change in trim- mings. : Brown has the great disadvantage that unless a rather light shade of color is se- lected the coat will not look well with other gowns; however, this year there are several shades to choose from and in selecting choose that look well with other colors. Athletics makes waists smaller, not larger. College girls who go in for gym- nastic training are growing smaller in the waist and broader in the sholders, accord- ing to statisties. This change is attributed to a more correct standing position and the strengthening of the muscles of the shoul- ders. One young woman, within a year, has effected a decrease of one inch in her waist measure and an increase of one-half inch in breadth of shoulder, while her lung sapaciey has increased from 193 to 230 nches. garments is in the nature of a cape in pure sand, stick your slips into the sand Castoria.
