Bellefonte, Pa., April 22nd, 1904. A == ——————————————— ——————— FARM NOTES. —When making a garden have a place for herbs, such as sage, thyme, balm, dill, weet marjorau, etc. They will always be Sound useful and may be grown from seed. —While the matted row system for strawberries is preferred by the majority of growers, vet it will be an ad vantage to train the first runners to grow in rows (and not have the rows very wide) by cutting off the late runners that appear. —The root crops are among the most im- portant grown. So far as actual food value is concerned they do not rank high, but they arealways relished by stock in win- ter because they afford a change of food, thus promoting the appetite and keeping the animals in condition. —The beat in a hive of bees when the weather is very warm is increased by the animal heat given off from the bodies of the insects. This should remind those who have bees that the hive must bein the shade or the colony will become re- duced by disease. The most honey is only secured when the colonies are large and healthy. —Guessing at the product of a cow is very common. Farmers can very easily arrive at a knowledge of the amount of milk produced, but it is not so easy to know how much food has been consumed unless it is weighed. The cost of the food is also another item to chserve, and by fully understanding the receipts and ex- penses of each cow the most unprofitable in the herd can be disposed of. —When the patrons of the creamery formerly took their milk to the creameries, and were paid by the can, irrespective of quality, there was no inducement for them to improve the quality of milk. Since the advent of the milk tester each patron’s milk can be judged as to the proportion of butter fas it contains. The method of test- ing for butter before it is churned is sure to give correct results, and. will do much in forcing farmers to improve their stock and thereby get rid of the scrubs. —No man onght to be employed to drive or care for a team that is not naturally fond of horses. If he does not like them he will not study their wants or habits, and will be likely to veglect and spoil a good team. Such a man ought to drive mules or oxen, or to work out his living with a spade or pick. It does not takea careless or heedless man long to spoil more horse flesh than his wages amount to in a season. A bad-tempered man will spoil the temper of the hest horse. —Clean out the feet of horses when they come in from the field after the day’s work is done, and brush out the fetlocks, the neck and breast, and 1f there is any sign of tenderness bathe with salt water, or vine- gar and water. [If‘the work horses ‘do not go out into the pasture to get grass ocea- sionally give each a pound of carrots or mangels two or three timesa week. No work horse should be fed dusty bay. The cattle can eat it, but it clogs the lungs of the horses and brings on coughs that may become troublesome. —It is not looking for too much ina herd of cows to have every animal yield 2500 quarts in a year, but the value of the milk will depend upon the amount of but- ter derived. When the herd is deficient in the production of milk or butter there is but one remedy for the evil, and that is to breed for better cows. The trough of food is very important, but the main point that should be kept in view is the advantage of breeding for the characteristics sought. When the capacity of the cows is increased the farmer can convert a larger proportion of bulky foods into beef, milk and butter. —Corn eusilage weighs from 40 to 50 pounds per cubic foot, depending mainly on the height of the ensilage above it and the compression to which it is subjected. Probably 40 to 45 cubic feet will be the usual bulk of a ton of ensilage. It is worth folly one-third the value of bay, ton for ton, though it is rather cheaper for most farmers to put up three tons of en- silage, inclnding cutting it, than one ton of bay, as all the way from 15 tons or more tons of succulent corn fodder can he grown on land where it would be difficult to cut two tons of meadow hay. —There has always been some doubt in regard to che propriety of sowing clover bay very early in the spring. At the Michigan station seed was sown on plots every growing month in the year by way of experiment. That seeded in March did fairly well, but the plots seeded in April, May. June and July did better, the Au- gust plants not growing very large. The amount of rain and other conditions were uot stated. The results do not accord with those obtained by farmers in this section, as the March seed seems to thrive best. —It is a mistake to plant field beets in narrow rows, so that all the work bas to be done by band. There is a little band labor needed while the plants are small, but af- ter that all the work of cultivation cau be hest done with the cultivator. If the horse is careful and steady, a width of two feet hetween the rows is sufficient for all the kinds of beets. Bat their tops will grow so large as to completely shade the soil be- tween. The mangel wurizel grows still larger, and should he planted in rows two feet six inches or two feet ten inches apart, and thinned to ten inches apart in the rows. Even at this distance the mangel tops will completely shade the ground,and the roots will grow so that they will near- ly or quite touch each other. By thus using horse labor for cultivation the beet crop may be very easily and clieaply grown, —The breed fowls are said to be divided into sitters and non-sitters. It is true that certain breeds, such as the Leghoius, never sit, while other breeds. of which the Light Brahma may be selected, hatch one or more hroods in a year. Can this sitting propensity be controlled ? Tt is possible to a certain extent. Try the following ex- periment, which has been tested by many who were successful : Have a pen of Light Brahmas aud one of Brown Leghorns (sep- arate), using pure breeds. Feed the Brah- mas wholly on nitrogenous food, and keep them in exercise by compelling them to scratch for all they get. They will probh- ably lav from early in the year until moult- ing. Feed the Leghorns mostly on grain and give them very little exercise; allow them to get fat. and the result will be that the Brahmas will’ sit. The reason that some certain breeds do not sit is that they easily become fat, and are less active. ‘The maternal, or €itting, instinet exists in all hens, but fat on the body is nutare’s pro- vision for their support and warmth while on the nest, and until the hen 'is so pro-" vided she seldom sits, The provision is a wise oue, for the sitting hen remains close- | ly to her nest. seldom coming off for food. | ROBBED THE GRAVE.—A startling inci- dent, is narrated by Jobn Oliver, of Phila- delphia, as follows: ‘I was in an awful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continu- ally in back and sides, no appetite,growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Then I was advised to use Electric Bitters; to my great joy, the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they robbed the grave of another victim.”” No one should fail to try them. Only 50 cents, guaranteed at Green’s drug store. Rates to St. Louis World’s Fair.
