FARM NOTES.
—Three Cs to stand hy—cows, corn,
clover.
To prevent butting, tie a stick or a pole
three fees long to the buck’s horn, let
it drag on the ground.
—Salt and ashes area fine preventive of
sickuess in the hog yard. This means bard
wood ashes, never coal ashes,
—The cows who are tanght to come and
£0 at a word save time, strength and an-
noyance sometimes avert a disaster.
Any animal on the farm will stand
more exposure without suffering than a
cow giving a large amount of milk.
—Many a well-bred heifer bas been rain-
ed by lack of care and handling on part of
the owner and feeder during the first
year.
—Cows are often confused by the num-
ber of sounds the milker makes. Little
talking should be done during the milk-
ing time.
—A cow is very susceptible to favorable
or unfavorable conditions; so, if the dairy-
man does not wish to lose money, he must
keep this in mind.
—The calves of to-day are the milkers of
to-morrow. If these milkers are going to
be ap to par, special attention must be
given to their breeding and care.
—Unlesy sheep are caught with a crook,
more or less wool will be wasted at sheep-
shearing time. Sheep and lambs caught by
hand often lose fals of fleece.
ible to develop good milk
cows from breeds because it bas been
done, bat it takes a long time. It takesa
much shorter time to breed them from a
dairy type.
—The introduction of the blood ol breeds
that naturally yield rich milk will raise
the test of native or scrub herds as soon as
the inflaence of those breeds has a chance
to operate.
—One reason why the hog pasture must
be restricted in size is that hog fencing is
very costly. The strands of wire must be
close together and the lowest wire must
lie along the ground.
— Hawks may be kept out of the poul-
try yard by attaching bright pieces of tin
6x10 inches to the trees and poles sur-
rounding quarters,by strings two feet long
so that the wind will make the bright
metal dance in the sunlight.
—Blood will tell iu the poultry yard as
in no other farm stock department. The
meat hreeds beat the mongrel and so do
the laying breeds, each in its own special-
ty. Never bas this been better understood
than now and never has the scrub ben been
in such disfavor.
—Rosebushes should be well trimmed and
given shallow cultivation. They will not
thrive if surrounded by grass. It the bush-
es are weak, water them once a week with
a solution made by dissolving a teaspoon-
tu! of nitrate of soda and the same quantity
of phosphate of potash in a pint of water,
saturating the ground around each bush.
Always stir the surface of the gronnd when
it becomes dry. They should be protected
in winter, if convenient to do so.
—If an orchard is given as much care as
grain crops it would prove more frudisible
than grain. There would then fewer
complaints of blight and insect attacks,
while the trees would live longer and pro-
duce more and better fruits. There are
orchards on many farms that bear every
year, though neglected, bat the fact that
such orchards do not fail is strong evidence
that the proper varieties for the soil were
selected, and that with coltivation there
would be larger profits.
—I# takes time, from the planting of the
trees to the bearing stage to derive results
from an a ple orchard, but the value of the
orchard will depend upon the work given
it during the first two or three years.
When an apple orchard of selected varie-
ties has once been secured it should give a
Iarge profit every year, not ouly in fruit,but
also in using the land for Pigs at certain
times, and even by occasionally growing a
hoe or grass crop. e large orchards are
now used as locations for poultry.
— When grass is allowed to produce seed
it exbausts the soil more than when a cro
of hay is cut before the seeds are permi
to appear. When seed beade form then the
plant has falfilled its mission,and bas stor-
ed in the seed a larger proportion of the
mineral elements than remains in the stalks
of the plants ioc many cases, as the green
plants, when cat down early, consists large-
ly of water. A grain crop and a crop of
seed from grass deprive the soil of a pro-
on of ol the fertilizing substanoes ex-
therein.
—1It is claimed that for the destruction
of the carcalio there is nothing equal to
jarring the trees and spraying, but good
results have been obtained by dusting the
trees in the Spriag, after the blossoms fall,
a @ mistuty crude Satalie acid aud
pounds of dry ground plaster. It
should be very fine and dry, well mixed
and dusted over every portion of the tree.
The curcalio is very destructive to plams,
and the use of such a remedy as the wix-
ture mentioned will cost but little and it

Skirts Gaining in Favor—Among
the dressier sort of suits bave come out
some that are veritable costumes, the waist
worn with them ¢o definite a part of the
suit that the impression of unity is sharp
and distinet.
The skirts of suits are fisted smoothly
about the hips, the circular skirt remain-
ing the favorite this fail, as it did last,only
this year's circular skirt shows the same
down front and back, stitched and even
welted to eruphasize the fact that there is a
seam. .
Plenty of them—almost all of the dressier
type, in fact—are long, eo long that they
must be held up in the street.
Bat vou'll never find a woman resenting
that ! There is nothiog in fashions so alto-
gether womanly and graceful asa trailing
skirt, and never a woman who woanldo’s
cheerfully carry a skirt for a mile or two
for the exquisite pleasure of dragging that
long sweep of material after her over softly
carpeted floors
ackets have grown shorter, the longest
reaching about midway between hip and
knee—that length, by the way, was seen
on only a few of last year’s suits, the ones
which were really a year ahead of fash-
ions. Bat beware of that length if you are
short and geoerally “‘dumpy’’—almoss an
other figure can wear it, and a tall, slim
woman is at her best in it.
Of course, walking suits have the short
skirt, which in nine cases out of ten is
circular, like the longer ones.
Bat, after all, longer skirts are gaining
in favor more and more every day.
The races claim a good bit of everyone's
time at this season of the year, and keep-
ing aloog with them are the various horse
shows at the many country clubs. To the
fashionable woman these events mean an
extra frock or two, which must be in latest
chic and smartness quite ahead of her other
gowns, for they can be worn again in the
tropics, or elee next spring. Her veils, too,
are a scurce of agitation, for a new idea
bas beeu sprung on the public by those
just howe from travel abroad in the shape
of a brussels net veil, which is figured with
a ring aud bas a ruffled border of chiffon.
It is not more than a yard long at most, not
even that, and is drawn neatly around the
hat brim, the edges caoghs together just
back of crown at half length and at nape
of neck by jeweled slides.
Real lace veils, too, are worn just this
way, so the floating, careless ends area
thing of the past, as is the loosely falling
veil so comfortable over the face.
Stockings, too, must match the costume,
and should be embroidered either in self
tone or in the shade the dress is trimmed
with. These, of course, show plainly as
long as weather permits the wearing of low
shoes, and bere again a point ie raised in
favor of patent leather for dress occasions;
the toe more pointed than formerly, the
heel lower and an extension sole with no-
ticeable swing.
So many of the models show a tendency
toward apron overskirts either at front or
at sides, others have a series of flounces,
especially the silk gowns, or separate skirts
of black taffeta, with which, in curious
contrast, short fur jackets are to be worn.
Buttons again are the centre of attrac.
tion in the trimming line, being freel
combined with braid; of braid, several dif-
ferent kinds and widths often ornament
one gown.
The charming little model shown today
is of Russian green broadoloth, with pooket
flaps, collar and cuffs of black moire, the
buttons enameled in several colors.
Not so very long ago almost every music
teacher brought out at some time in his or
ber early career Hayden's Toy Symphony,
drilling childen to take the various parts.
Bat we've grown more ambitions musical-
ly—tbae work for the most part was too
mechanical. If the bird-instrament wasn't
filled with water to just the proper pitch,
no amount of blowing into the mouth piece
would make him warble in tune, or the
soft trill wonld become a shrill, nnmelodi-
ous whistle.
Plenty of child musicians there are
among vs, not the tiny ‘‘geniuses’’ whose
very intensity of music (and of moods)
makes your heart ache at first glance, but
jolly little mortals, with eoough love of
music in their souls to make them really
enjoy playing, even at the cost of regular
practicing.
Wonderful little music festivals can be
gotten up with them—the simpler quartets
and trios and duets arranged in even more
$ibple fashion so as to bring the melody
within the grasp of their young intelligence.
One of the prettiest amateur concerts
ever given was one held a year ago, in
which every performer wasa child, the
oldest not over 12 and some tots of only 6,
who sang duets in their sweet, piping
voices, both alto and soprano, perfectly
sustained.
One child of eight sang a pretty little
song to the piano accompaniment of her
twin sister, while a third child—the ‘‘first
violin’’—played a simple obligato.
Four or five girls, of 10 or 12 years of
age, bad been drilled in mandolin work,
until they played with the precision and
the swing of a band; aud another child—
wonderfully talented child, that—sang old
plantation melodies in dialect, while she
picked out an accompaniment of simple
chords on a tiny banjo.
Bat the costume numbers brought down
the house. A prey Irish ballad was lisp-
ressed in vivid green with
lenty of shamrocks in evidence, A .
addie, complete as to bare knees, kilts
avd Sootoh cap, played several Scotch airs,

lections so short that there was no time to

FOUND BOw 2 IN STREET
Infernal Machine For New York
Banker Picked Up in Phila.
Philadelphia, Sept. 25.—An infernal
machine, addressed to Jacob Schiff, a
New York banker, was picked up on
the street here by David Thompson, a
colored boy, who found it near a mall
box. The boy gave the package to
Henry Sulzman, a postman, who car-
ried to the sub-station and deposited
it with the outgoing mail. Superin-
tendent J. C. McKnight noticed that
the wrapper was torn, and while hand-
ling it he observed a grain of powder
which fell from the box, and he imme-
diately threw the package into a pail
of water,
After it had remained immersed for
several hours it was taken out and
examined. The box was made of
pasteboard and was 10 inches long, 4
inches wide and 1 inch in depth. In-
side were placed two rolls of paste
board, which held in place a match
box filled with gunpowder and bullets,
Matches had been sunk into the pow-
der, their heads resting against the
top of the match box, which had been
backed with sandpaper. To the lid of
the match box was fastened a plece
of string with a Jewish New Year's
card attached to the other end. Upon
Y | opening the large package the recip-
fent’s attention weuld be attracted to
the New Year's card, and by pulling
out the card he would remove the lid
of the match box, ignite the matches
and explode the powder, scattering the
bullets.

U. 8. OFFICIALS IN POLITICS
Congress May be Asked to Probe Their
Activity in North Carolina.
Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 24.—United
States Senator F. M. Simmons, chair-
man of the state Democratic commit-
tee, charged that federal interference
in politics in North Carolina “had be-
come so bold of late” that he intended,
if necessary, to ask congress to inves-
tigate.
These officials, he said, had always
been more or less active in behalf of
their candidates and against Demo-
cratic candidates. This year, he said,
they were marshaled as an army under
the direction of its chief, and “present
a front of organized activity never be-
fore shown by them in this state.” He
charged that this was because the
president and departments of govern-
ment had turned over to the chairman
of the Republican party all federal of-
fices in his state not under the civil
service and because the Republicans
at their recent convention in Greens-
boro passed a resolution requiring all
candidates for federal positions to file
applications for appointment with the
executive committee and to agree In
writing to abide by the decision of the
committee.
Senator Simmons declared that if
the government and the courts did
not take hold of the conditions in reve-
nue collection district in western North
Carolina he would be compelled to de-
mand a senatorial investigation.
FATAL FIGHT WITH NEGROES
White Man Stabs One And Four of
Them Open Fire on Him.
Danville, Va., Sept. 25.—As the result
of a fight on a bridge near the city
between C. L. Perrow, 18 years old,
son of a prominent farmer, and four
negroes, young Perrow lies at the point
of death, and Ed Graves, one of the
negroes, was perhaps fatally stabbed
by the white man. Perrow and the ne-
groes had been drinking together, and
Perrow became involved in a difficulty
with Graves, stabbing him several
times with a knife. The negroes then
fired at Perrow IW times. George Rob-
erts, one of the negroes arrested, had
two pistols, the chambers of which
were all empty. Ed Graves, the negro
who was cut, is guarded at his home.
Three bullets took effect in the body
of Perrow.
Heroic Rescue From Drowning.
San Juan, Porto Rico, Sept. 25.—A
