Bratman Bellefonte, Pa., October 9, 1903 A I MB, FARM NOTES. —Mault sprouts are a residue of the brewing industry. ‘Barley grains are sprouted in the process of malting and in due course are rubbed off and sold, either wet or dry, as a cattle food. They enter the general market solely in the skin dried form. They are small, comma shaped, light yellow brown particles of an agree- able nutty odor and orisp texture. When fed dry they are frequently refused by cows. If soaked some hous izefore feeding they are often better relished. —Salt does not kill pculiry, says a poul- try exchange, thougn such has been the olaim. If the fowls are allowed to have access to the broken roocksals, or brine from a pork or fish barrel, they may eab too much and be injured, but a proper proportion of salt in the food is as neces- sary for fowls as for animale. = Many diseases are due to a failure to supply sals, and this accounts for the cures effected by it in some cases, the fowls when sick being benefited by salt because it supplies a long- felt wants. —Does it pay to usea pasture; that is, will a larger profit he derived from ‘cows that are given exclusively the use of a pas- ture, or will the same land pay more if used for producing hay ? It has been found, alter repeated tests, that about four times as much food could be obtained from a meadow by allowing it to produce hay than by pasturing it, which means that four cows can be kept on the land where only one can be kept by pasturing it. One of the drawbacke against using the land for hay, however, ie that considerable labor is required in mowing, ouring and storing the hay, while the cows on the pasture perform the labor. Also, the cows given green food as pasturage produce more milk in the summer season than if kept on bay, and must be given green food in some manner to be profitable. —There is demand for a smaller package for apples. The west is far in advance of the east in the matter of fruit packages. We handle the buik of our apple crop in standard fifty pound boxes and our plums, peaches and cantaloups all go in the crates adapted for handling them, which are at- tractive to the buyer. The hushel apple box has greatly increased the demand for apples and many boxes are sold to individ- ual families which would not buy a barrel at a time. The half bushel box will strike a lot more good customers in families who now buy only by the quarter’s worth. The great advantage of fruit in small packages is that it sells direct to the retail trade without breaking of the packages or re- measuring the contents. A great many of the common groceries which are now sold in neat pasteboard packages were formerly doled ous in bulk and they are all used more extensively since being put up in attractive packages.— Field and Farm. —The barnyard should be watched at this time of year to see that the liquids do not run to waste. If the flow can be turn- ed into a field, and spread evenly, to soak away over its surface, the manure contain- ed in it will settle in the ground and be saved. On lands where this deposit is made no other manure will be necessary, as the best materials, the chemical salts, are washed out and flow away with the water. Where there is a considerable dis- tance for the stream to run, these will all be deposited, unless the flow is too rapid. Where the liquid cannot be made to flow over a field, it should be dammed up in the barnyard, and the coarse manure thrown into the pool. This is presupposing that no arrangements were made the year before to manage it to better advantage. To utilize this valuable material there should always be bauled in the barnyard, in the autumn season, a lot of muck or earth, which should be so placed that it may be made to absorb the liquids. Where there is a basement it can be placed therein and wheeled out at any time that it is requir- ed. Without such convenience it may be piled up across the natural outlet of the barnyard and go serve the purpose of a.dam and absorbent. —1I have several plots of grapes thas have been treated for the grape root worm by spraying. One lot was not sprayed at all and acted as a check on the other two. Two unsprayed vines were badly marked and many clusters of eggs were found on them. On the sections sprayed thoroughly about the time the beetles emerged, there was very little marking on the foliage and few egg clusters. Still another lot were sprayed about the same time and a second time about eight days afterward. There was very little or no marking visible and practically no egg clusters on these. For spraying I use four pounds arsenate of lead to fifty gallons of water. I believe the grape beetle can be thoroughly handled if the remedy is applied at the right time. Applying the remedy, however, is only half the problem. The other half lies in finding men who will apply the spray thoroughly and at the proper time. The leaves must be covered with the spray to be protected and muss be there before the eggs are deposited. Fruit growers of the Lake Erie valley have never before been called upon to fight for the life of their plants with a spray pump, and as a conse- quence very few of us know what thorough spraying means. 1t is considerable more than they use on potatoes for the beetles.— John D. Spencer, in New England Home- stead. —The chief reason for caponizing cock- erels is to get a larger profit out of them. Good capons generally sell for a higher price per pound than other poultry. They also weigh more, and are marketed at a time when the flock is bringing little re- turn. A flock of capons are quiet, do not crow and are easily taken care of. The best breeds to caponize are the medium-sized varieties, such as Plymouth Rooks, Wyandots, Rhode Island Reds, etc. The Asiatics do not give as satisfactory re- sults unless kept until they reach maturity, when they are so large as to be beyond the reach of private families. It does not pay to caponize smaller breeds, for they do not produce dressed fowls of the highest qual- ity. Capons are usually marketed at from six to 12 months of age, and the market for them opens soon after the holidays. The best time to caponize is when the cockerels are three to four months old. At this age the vperation can be performed with less danger then when the birds are older and larger. A bright, sunny day must be chosen for the operation and the birds must have been fasted for at least 24 hours previous. A special set of instru- ments are necessary for the purpose, and the work requires skill and care. One may easily acquire the skill by practicing on a few dead hirds.— Orange Judd Farmer. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN, Three-quarter length coat suits are a purely American fashion. They are here for the winter at leass. Whether pleated or in Prince Albert effect they are good style. The sleeves are a trifle broader than ordinary coat sleeves to accommodate the large sleeves of the bodies. Evening and carriage coats are long and loose, with im- mense balloon sleeves. Coats for the dress promenade will be short, on Eton lines, and all save the coats in military effect are without standing collars, the idea being to wear neck pieces of fur. Cape-like collars in military effect finish many coats. Double fronts, the under ones red, give still another military effect. Whether a skirt be pleated or plain it flares out at the foot more than last year. The nine gore, without a flonnce, is a fav- ored model. For carriage. house and smart promenade wear the silk lining is still in the shape of a drop skirt. For real service it is made right in with the skirt, which is a boon to the wearer as well as to disgusted ones, who must watch it dangle in the dirs (it being next to impossible to hold it up with the outer skirt). As for length—trailing skirts are very long, or else quite bobbed, while walking skirts are longer, just touching. Outside severely tailored coat suits the sleeves has swelled to extraordinary pro- portions. In frilled elbow sleeves the en- tire sleeve may be full. In full-length sleeves the fullness is canght in at the top, either in tucks or shirrings, or by a cap, while the lower part is extremely bulky and is caught into either a broad Louis XV ouff or a high, flaring, broad gauntlet cuff. Flat, long shoulder effects are even more extreme than they have been. ‘She has her husband and children; and they are well, and they are good, and they are contented; and yet, she was actually unhappy because—her dressmaker disap- pointed her !’’ says some poor soul who has paid the price—a woman whose house is left unto her desolate. To such a one, writes Margaret Deland, in Harper's Bazar, the whimpering and scolding complaint about the unimportant seems an incredible folly and she is moved to say to her com- plaining rich friend, ‘‘do stop to remember that you are rich; remember all you pos- sess !”’ But instead of remembering her wealth, the foolish woman isbewailing her poverty ; she is consumed with worry over unimportant things. The dressmaker brings tears to her eyes; the domestic prob- lem keeps her awake at night; an invita- tion which does not come turns the world black before her. Shame ! says the poor creature whose sense of proportion has been born in some bitter hour of fear or bereavement of wrong- doing. And it is a shame—a shame for the peo- ple who have in their lives the conscious- ness of Love, and Character, and Courage, to fall into the wastefnl folly of unhappi- ness about the unimportant. It would be bad enough if this shameful kind of un- happiness could be confined to the person who experiences it; bus, unfortunately, its black edge spreads over on to other lives. No woman who comes dewn to her break- fast table, with what her son frankly calls a ‘‘grouch on,’’ is grouchy to herself alone. Her hushand feels it; that same candid son feels it; her servants feel it, and so the day falls a little more darkly than it need on the world. It is curious how rarely we stop to reflect upon the duty of being con- scious of our happiness, of being pleasant, in fact, for the sake of other people’s hap- piness. And it is so simple a duty, too, always at our hand ! It does not need that we shall go out and look for it, as we might look for a high deed tu do—a dragon to slay, a movement to reform the world, a vocation, a martydom ! Sometimes we have to hunt for such things; while right at hand is this great, and simple, and seri- ous opportunity, the opportunity of being pleasant. The latest phase of the bead oraze is making head fringe for candle and lamp shades. Made of metal or gilt beads the re- sult is quite good. Violet in every shade, from purple so deep and dull as to suggest black to the most delicate shades, is a color which is now in highest regard, and bids fair to be all winter. Purple in deep plum hues and street heliotrope is worn in daytime, the pastel lilac is in request for evening. So many hats of so many sorts and sizes are made and worn that the amateur in modes is mystified. Three sorts are com- ing from Paris, however—the flaring bat, the boat shape and the broad Directoire. Cut glass lamps and candelabra are the thing for quaint Colonial dining rooms. One of the fads among extremists in house decorations is to have no ornaments that do not possess utilitarian value. They depend upon lamps, candlesticks, flower vases and bowls, and gayly covered books for all the softening of outlines of the room. Very heavy linen, with very heavy, coarse lace edgings, are now most used for window hangings, bed spreads, bureau, table or toilet covers, etc., in Arts and Crafts rooms. en Fashion has divided her favors this year under three heads— 1. The soft, clinging materials. like voiles, etamines, crepes and the like for house or evening gowns. 2. The plain heautiful broadcloths for the fine tailored suits. 3. The heavier, rougher stuffs that be- long to the family where nubs and dots and little splotches and sprinklings of color come boldly to the surface as lurk just un- derneath—for traveling costumes, street or shopping gowns. But while rough stuffs are best, they must not he too rough. Even if it is a so-called ‘‘separate waist,’’ and made of an entirely different material from the skirt, it must be trimmed with the skirt material so as to combine the two. The prevailing style is to have waists rather loosely fitted. To wear with cloth ekirts waists of chif- fon, crepe de chine or Louisine of the same shade and trimmed with bands of the cloth are very swagger, and a cloth waist is real- ly too heavy.

Franklin Farrel, Jr., Yale Graduate, Lowliest of His Father's Many Employes Gets 34 a Week; Earns Ite Heir to several millions and the recipi- ent already of a life income of many thousands, Franklin Farrel, Jr., twenty- one year old, Yale graduate, owner of fast horses and a $10,000 touring car, works ten hours a day in his father’s foundry in Derby, Conn. He can be seen daily bend- ing over a grindstone at the grimiest and lowest labor in the whole plant. Determined to learn and master the com- plicated business of his father’s large foun- dry, young Farrel last Monday began his apprenticeship. Franklin Farrel, Sr., one of the wealth- jest men in Connecticut, his estate being variously estimated at from $10,000,000 to $15,000,000, was unaware of his son’s pur- pose until the latter bad actually gone to work. Young Farrel ie obliged to enter the mills with the other workmen at 7 o'clock every week day morning and be passes out with the oil-begrimed crowds at 6 o'clock in the evening, hurrying home in his overalls and jumper to Tower hall, the handsome Farrel residence. He is beginning to abandon society, as the hard work in the mill drives him early to bed. Only the fact that he had under- gone severe training as a candidate for the Yale crew enables the youth to stand the exacting work. On express orders from the office no favors are shown him. Franklin Farrel, Jr., was graduated from Yale last June, standing high in his class. He was a D. K. E. man, but failed to make a senior society, a circumstance that occasioned much comments. In the olass statistics he was rated the best dressed man of 1902. He was a mem- ber of the famous ‘‘Jolly Eight,’’who were innocently instrumental in bringing about Carrie Nation's visit to Yale. Some wags gent an invitation to the famous breaker to come to New Haven at a stated time, sign- ing the name of the ‘‘Jolly Eight.” Mrs. Nation arrived at the appointed time and found the ‘Jolly Eight’’ just finishing a reunion supper in Vanderbilt hall. She snatched away the cigarettes they were smoking and delivered her usual lecture, after which she wae taken away by another party of students. Young Farrel has just returned from a summer automobile trip with his sister, Miss Elise:Farrel. While he is serving his apprenticeship he will receive four dollars a week, but in the course of six months or a year, a8 he may show his proficiency, he may be paid at the rate of twelve and a half cents an hour. He carries his dinner in a pail and eats with the other working- men. His cousin, Alton Farrel, has been ap- pointed to a position in the office of the foundry, where he will learn the commer- cial end of the business. Miss Elise Farrel recently caused a stir by abandoning society, in which she was prominent, taking a course at a business college and entering the foundry office as stenographer and typewriter, assisting her father in his correspondence and assuming in a measure the duties of private seocre- tary. She later gave up the work. Franklin Farrel, Sr., besides controlling the Farrel Foundry and Machine company, is extensively interested in silver mining mines in Lake Superior district. ‘A few years ago he reaped a profit of several million dollars by the sale of the Parrot copper mine. He is also a balf owner in a large sugar plantation in Cuba. Tower hall, the home of the Farrels, is considered the hamsomest residence in the Naugutuck valley. Mrs. Pennypacker’s Princely Present. Is Given Diamond Sunburst Valued at $3,500 By Gov- ernor’s Party. Mrs. Pennypacker, wife of the governor, was presented a diamond sunburst, valued at $3,500, by the governor’s party at the reception given in the latter’s honor by Maj. Gen. Charles Miller, of Franklin, commander of the National Guard of Penn- sylvania. The presentation was made aboard the special train on the Penn- svlvania lines west, shortly after the train left for Pittsburg. Both the governor and Mrs. Pennypacker were deeply affected. The presentation of the gift had been kept a secret until Friday, but the story was duly vouched for by a prominent member Arena. of the governor's staff.
