Bellefonte, Pa., August 5, 1904. EE Ey. FARM NOTES. —Many of the more common digestive troubles of the horse are directly traceable to some 1nuperfection of the teeth. Neglect of these often leads to imperfect mastica- tion. impoverished condition, irritability, digestive disturbances and eye derange- ments. When dentition goes on regularly the colt gets sixteen new teeth, eight in each jaw, between its second and third years. Therefore, the mouth should be often and carefully examined at this period and all irregularities adjusted. If the colt’s system seems to be in a languid condition it should be remedied by extra feeding, especially of oats.— Prairie Farmer. —1t is difficult work to make the best butter from a one-cow dairy, especially late in the season, when the milk yield less- ens. The best butter is made with least expense when the dairy is large enough to require churning every day. This makes a great deal of hard work, unless it impels the daryman to provide power of some kind, so as to relieve the labor. This it generally :loes. Whenever the dairy is large enough to require churning every day a creamer or separator will pay. not only by the saving of labor, but by secar- ing more of the cream than is possible by the old process of hand-skimming the milk. § } —Sassafras is one of the worst pests tha can find a hold ou a field. Cut it down, or even grub it up, and it will reappear almost unexpectedly, growing rapidly and taking possession of the land. Thereisa time when it can be removed to the bess advantage, however, and that is hy grub- bing about the first of September, remov- ing the roots, and then clearing off the field. Should any plants appear next spring, go into the field and touch a litsle sulpburic acid on each—half a teaspoonful wiil answer—and repeat should any roots appear later, first ontting off all plants that show above ground. This is also an excellent method of eradicating thistles and other weeds that are difficult to re- move. —While the majority of farmers who have a range for their hogs during the summer cut off the corn supply almost entirely, it is questionable if this isthe best plan. On the other hand, it will not do to feed corn entirely. In feeding corn to pigs the best results come when given to them once a day, or if they have skim milk or mid- dlings once a day. Gluten meal may take the place of the middlings if desired; it will do quite as much good and is cheaper. There is no question about the .value of corn at fat- tening period, but mistakes are sometimes made here in feeding the hog too long: that is, after it has reached about the top notch for markets. Corn fed beyond that period is simply wasted. —Which is the best breed of cattle is a question frequently asked. The best hreed depends on what is expected .of it. If choice steers are to be raised for market, and which are to grow rapidly, produce carcasses that will command excellent prices, and at the lowest cost, use the beef hreeds. If milk and buster are the objects the beef qualities should not be sought. It is nos difficult to learn, at the present day, how and where to procure the hest breed of milk and batter producers, but in so do- ing aim to secure not only the breed, but choice animals of the breed. If a begin- ning is made with the best the more rapid will be the progress to success, as there are inferior animals even among the pare- bred ones. An extra dollar or two expend- ed at the start will return four-fold in the fatuare. —Wehile there are many fine points in the makeap of a good dairy cow which are not mentioned here, says the Indianapolis News. the following may be considered as being the points most easily distingumished and which, if they exist in a cow, are prob- ably associated with the other good points not so readily seen. A good dairy cow should have a broad mouth, thin lips; broad, open nostrils, space short from nose to eyes, but broad between the eyes; large eyes and long from eyes to horn and nar- row hetween horns; a good, round, full bar- rel, large teats and loose skin on the udder. These points in a cow indicate an animal of good disposition with sound organs, good nerves and a capacity for turning the food given her into good, rich milk. Look over the herd and see how they average up to this description. —Use the carry comb, but use it merci- fully; it’s the dirt you [are after, not the skin. The stiff scrubbing brush the wife uses in house cleaning is a good and merciful horse cleaner. Bat do not use hers. So treat the horses that they will be glad to see you come into the stable, and not acs a+ if they would like to climb through the roof. Teach the colt when it is young and yon will not have to break it when older. Cleanliness of person and stable may not be godliness to the horse, but it is good- feelingness, which is probably more impor- tant from the viewport of the horse. —Late autumn is on some accounts the best time to set new orchards on the farm. There is more time to spare now than will ‘be the case next spring, and the work is likely to be done in better shape. Set trees in a solid block on good land. An old way was to set apple trees along the farm walls and fences. But trees in sach locations are a nuisance, tempting breachy cattle, and difficult to care for in business-like manner. Of course a few trees will worry along almost anywhere and anyhow. Bat for profit,buy first-class trees. ses on good, clear land, and keep it well cultivated. Orchards can be grown without cultiva- tion, using manure and mulch, buf it is a long wait hefore they reach profitable size. The writer hasa good young orchard plant- ed ina blueberry field with little cultiva- tion except to keep bushes mowed and ap- ply manure or nitrate of soda. But growth is slow and uneven. It would have paid to break up the rough. stony field and cultivate it as well as conditions permitted rather than to follow the plan adopted. One of the best plans is to set trees in freshly broken sod land shoroughly work- ed with disk barrow. Grow corn or pota- toes, sowing red clover at time of last cnlti- vation, and plow it in the next spring. Corn or potatoes will do well a few years, but unless clover or other green stuff is plowed under every year the soil will soon reach a point where manure will not pro- duce profitable crops among the trees, and the growth of the trees themselves will not be what it might. The land will nos be 1aid down to grass, but the same effect to- ward restoring the scil may be had by plow- ing under green stuff. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. “Opportunity makes us known to others,but more to ourselves.’ Maryland Biscuits. One and one-half quarts of flour, one teaspoonful of salt, one big tablespoonful of lard, one pint of milk and water mixed. Work half an hour; bake half an hour. English eyelet embroidery has lost none of its smartness, and is seen on heavy and fine white and colored materials. Charming coats for wear over summer frocks are seen in the shops, made of this embroidery on heavy linen, and lined with batiste in pale colors, green, mauve, ete. A most effective trimming seen on many black and blue suits is the tonch of parrot green. Until you have applied it or seen it ap- plied you do not realize how thoroughly smart the combination is. It is equally good with black or "blue, althongh a trifle newer perhaps with the former. : Another good touch noticed on the street frocks of silk is the narrow bias ruffle of self material. This quaint finishing touch is used for collars, cuffs and elsewhere on both blouse and skirt. Camphor is very useful to freshen the air of asick-room. Put a piece on an old saucer, and on it lay the point of a ret-hot poker, when its fames will quickly fill the air. “There is not a shadow of doubt,’’ says » heauty doctor, ‘‘that the nse of moderate corsets is invaluable to many women who without them would lack the need of a very real support, and, as I have pointed oct before in connection with this vexed question, there are. now such enormous varieties of corsets to choose from that it is possible to wear a support of this kind that is of the slightest. And there is one point that has been, I think, quite over-looked with regard to the much-abused corset, and that is its warmth, which is a consid- ‘eration not-altogether to be ignored.”’ If you would keep your bands in good condition do not wash them every time they appatently need it if you are doing kitchen work, but have a soft towel at hand and wipe them now and then until you have finished the work ; then give them a thor- ough washing and drying. After soaping and rubbing them with a very soft brush, and while they are still wet, use a piece of lemon, which will cleanse all stains from the nails. Thep try a pumice stone if there is any discoloration or roughuess. A lit- tle borax or a few drops of ammonia will soften the water. Wipe dry on a soft towel, rubbing very gently each finger toward the tip. Here is a simple and available recipe—a medicinal bath for the nervously worn and those who cannot sleep o' nights. It was the prescription of an old physician. Recipe : Take of sea salt four ounces, spirits of ammonia two ounces, spirits of camphor two ounces, of pure alcohol eight ounces and sufficient hot water to make a full quart of the liquid. Dissolve the sea salt in the hot water and let stand until cool. Pour into the alcohol the spirits of ammonia and camphor. Add the salt wa- ter, shake well and bottle for nse. With a soft sponge dipped in this mixture wet over the surface of the whole body. Rub vigorously until the skin glows. When nervous or ‘‘blue’’ or wakeful do not omit this bath. The rest and refreshing that follow will amply repay the effort required to prepare it. This summer there are, all statements to the contrary, any number of smart gowns being made of cheviots, smooth, light- weight serges. Oxford mixtures and ma- terials that will stand the hardest kind of wear, the skirt in side pleats or seven- gored, with decided flare or with attached flounce anéd a medium-length half-fitting coat. No trimming is used excepting the turn-down collar and caffs. Fancy blouses worn with these gowns are most attractive, and are made in moire silk, taffeta or the Madras made for this purpose. The white moire waists look ex- ceedingly smart with the solid colors, but with the mixed chevints a more effective contrast is obtained with the brighter colors. The thin, white,elaborately made waists worn with these severely plain costumes seem somewhat incongruous, and yet the very incongruity makes them attractive. Elaborate lace, silk or satin waists are often seen. The heavily embroidered and richly trimmed muslins do not look bad. Then, if a dark waiss is preferred, crepe de chine or chiffon is chosen. Exceedingly smart are the bolero jackets worn over fine batiste lace or linen waists. These jackets are deliciously cool, and at the same time are quite appropriate for the promenade or traveling gown. Among the new styles is found a jacket, previously mentioned. that would be extremely chic in any of the light-weight materials. This, apparently, is a cross between an Eton and a bolero. Although fitting closely to the neck at the back, it falls straight from there to within about three inches from the belt. The material is cut straight around the bottom, and the jacket is left open down the front or may be fastened at the front by a ribbon bow. The sleeves are left very large and come just a little below the elbow. In fact, the coat is made all in one piece, after the fashion introduced in some of the French coats last winter. These suits are trimmed either with bands of their own material,or with rows of silk or narrow braid. The trimming is perhaps smartest when of the same color as the gown, but black and white is also used, and often some shade in direct contrast to the color of the gown is introduced. One must be careful that in choosing this con- trasting shade one that is really effective with the green is taken, for nothing -is simpler than to absolutely destroy all the style of a very smart frock by the introduc- tion of some color that does not tone with the rest of the gown. The majority of the smartest imported tailor-mades have full skirts, full clear to the girdle. A large number of such toilets are without the sign of a gore, the volame being pleated or shirred according to the whim of iss maker. It is only in the ranks of short-cloth tailor-mades that the hip yoke remains, and there it is likely to stay 80 long as amplitude at the foot is demaud- ed. The fullness has been gradually oreep- ing upward, until now it is frequently within 10 inches or even less of the top. For stout figures the hips yoke cnt in one, with a front panel, is a boon. In voile, silk and other thin materials skirts are shirred or pleated directly into the girdle, but unnecessary fullness is discarded by means of gores or by cutting the pleats out from noderneath.

A correspondent of the London Chronicle tells of an incident he witnessed in the theatre of the Crystal Palace, where Car- dinal Manning was addressing an immense meeting of members of the League of the Cross, a temperance organization which was very near his heart. *‘I will confess to you,’’ he said, with that mixture in his manner of the playful and the paternal which his Irish children loved, ‘‘that I do not practice what I preach. Iam nota total abstainer myself, because my doctor won't let me he one.”” At once a voice came from the topmost gallery, ‘‘Change your doctor !’’ *‘Thank you for the hin, my friend,”” promptly said the Cardinal, “I will.” What is more, he did ; with the result that he was a teetotaller ever afterward, refusing all stimulants, even in his last illness.
