FARM NOTES.
—Don't think that a pig eats merely to
live.
—A wet slippery pen often makes a lame
bog.
—1Is is well to shifs the hog pasture every
ear or two.
=A good grade cow is all right, but
avoid the grade sire.
—In crossing, use males from the small-
er of the two breeds.
—If facts are really facts, they are better
thao theories ou the farm.
—Early chicks, early broilers, early eggs
—that is bow poultry pays.
—Harve you any animals on the farm
that return euch large profits for the mon-
ey invested as sheep?
—Keep the best pasture for the lambs.
Clover is gocd, £0 is a fresh blue grass pas-
tare, but an old one is productive of worms
and possibly death.
~Never buy a poor sheep; you have no
time to fool with it. Let your neighbors
experiment and throw away their feed if
they wish. Bay the best quali you can,
bat try to have the whole flock uniform.
—Many farmers ship prodoce to market
at certain seasons and buy articles that
could be dispensed with by using those
grown on the farm. In such cases the
y transporation in two ways, whic
MR the profits.
—Parent hogs over fed with corn always
produce offspring weak in bone and mus.
cle. It requires bran, middliogs and
ground cats to make healthy pige, and the
sooner the farmer learns this the larger
will be his profits.
~—A rise in the grade in the road of one
foot in ten doubles the draft. A rough,
soft or sandy road increases the . labor of
the team to nearly or twice the same de-
gree, and unoiled axles will also as effec-
tually double the labor and weariness of the
animals which pull the wagon.
—For family use there is no necessity
for having six or seven varieties of a single
kind of froit. Early, - mediom and late
varieties may be used, but it is better to
have a variety of a kind that is prolific and
satisfactory than to have the land occupied
with several varieties that seldom produce
crops.
—It is best to have ealt boxes in the
pasture where the sheep can find them at
will, but if not done, make a practice of
salting them every Sunday morning. You
will get acquainted with yoar sheep then,
and careful shepherds know it pays to pro-
mote friendship between flock and flock-
master.
—An sufficient supply of hees will
hinder the setting of fruit. While other
insects may take part in the carrying of
pollen, the fruit raisers must rely chiefly
upon honey bees. Experience shows that,
thongh bees may fly twoor three miles,
hives thounld be within half a mile of the
orchard or small fruit patoh.
—Tne Americans are getting the mutton
eating habit. Heretofore they have been
wedded to the sutloin steak, but now they
are catching on to the merits of the mutton
chop. This change in taste means much for
the fature of the sheep man, for the sheep
will make good meat out of much foed
which is generally wasted on the farm, while
the income from the woo! may be count.
ed anyhow ns #0 much clean profit.
~It iadifficult to sow grass seed by hand
and secure an even ‘‘cateb,’’ and the seed-
er thounld be used in every case. It is wot
always that a seeder can be found ona
broadcast seeding is best dove by seeders
especially adapted to such work. Itisas|
important to sow the seed evenly asto
prepare the soil, as poor seeding adds to
the expense of seed and reduces the yield.
—In summer the hogs will thrive on
clover, and also make as rapid growth as
with any other food. 1f the hogs must be
kept in pens, cot the clover iuto short
lengths and let them have it three times a
dry. If there is no green clover,
use clover hay, which may be ent
with a bay cutter, scalded, sprinkled with
bran and fed to the hogs. They will thrive
all the better if given some kiod of bulky
—A day's ration for a sheep is estimated
at two pounds of hay, hall a pound of
ground oats and ball a pound of bran, when
there is no pasture, as in winter, but as
large sheep consume more than smaller
ones the estimated ration may not be striot-
Iy correct. Sheep should also be supplied
with succulent focd, sliced carrots heing
highly relished. They should not be over-
fed, but should be kept in moderate con-
ition, In sammer good pasturage is suf-
t.
—Some boises will eat at all times and
consume almost auy quantity of food with-
out appearing to improve in condition, al-
though they ay vot be doing much work.
Horses differ and what is best for one may
not give as good results with others, Good
grooming is an important matter, bat thera
is not, as aule, sufficient variety in the
food of horses. While oats will coutinue
to be a standard food for horses, jeta
smali allowance of linseed meal and con
fodder will also be relished and give excel-
lent results. Hay and fodder should prove
superior to hay alone.
—Too much reliance is placed on the
disc harrow as a substitute for the plow.
There is no implement more -useful than
the disc harrow iu some lines, bat its place
is to cut up the tod avd render the soil
fine after the land has been plowed,
though farmers [regnently use the disc
harrow for preparing s'ubble land, leaving
out plowing altogether. Thete is some-
Suing woe in plowing than simply locsen-
ing the ground for weed. When land is
properly plowed it holds more moisture,
absorbs warmth 1apidly aud permits of
greater feeding capacity for plants,
~—When cultivating young corn it must
be dove in a maouner to destroy all weeds
hence shallow cultivation way not answer
as the weeds mustbe destroyed by any
method possible, rather than to permit them
in the corn field. Bat alter the corn is well
advanced it prove detrimental to run
the cultivator deep, as it then cuts many
roots. Root cutting bas been tested and
found injurious. After the weeds are kill-
ed the only work required is to keep about
an inch or two of the suiface soil loose, in
order to couserve moisture, as well as to
Jusan end to any young weeds that may

DAILY THOUGHT.
Courtesy is Economy.—Jokn Jay Chapman,
The exploitation of fine lawn, havd em-
broidery and beantifol makes of lac: can be,
perhaps, best appreciated Ly a stady of the
present-day blouse; aud charming, indeed,
are many of these garments.
There is or should be, a great fundamen-
tal difference between the blouse and the
shirt, for the latter, in its correct interpre-
tation, is a tailor-made, manly cut garment
in linen silk and wool mixtures, and Cey-
lon flannels to be worn with coats and skirt
suits, whereas the blouse iz a far more
ethereal garment, with a distinct cachet of
femininity. The shirt for ordinary wear in
linen is usnally made with a separate high
linen tarn-over collar, and this does not
come into the category of the blouse.
Delightfol for the summer wear are the
dainty little Paris lawn skirts, very sim-
ly made with little pleated frills and em-
> Wiaurel asertions ibe Toms, with
t rent co w alen-
ama and sleeves, ending below the
elbow, finished to match the collar.
Then there is the linen openwork com-
promise in all white, and this is v pop-
ular at the moment, with the yoke and
shoulder cut in one, giving something of
the kimino effect, but beautifully fitted
aud very b:comivg. These linen embrederie
Avglaise blouses wash admirably, and
pothing looks more charming ona hot
sammer's day. Again, we Lave the clear
muslin shirt, with Valenciennes insertions,
which is always dainty and popular and
perhaps more closely allied to the blonse
than the lawn or linen shirt. 4
The blouse for restaurant wear is an
ethereal kind of hodice, and in many cases
it ie composed of lace dyed to watch the
skirt, for the blouse aud the skirt must al-
ways have some connecting link. These
dyed lace hlonses are a very pretty featare
q this season’s fashion. Particulaily ef-
fective are the very pale gray laces with a
solt lining of white chiffon, worn with a
skirt of gray cloth or silk. These lace
blouses, by the way, require no otber lin-
ing than obiffon, but the oache-corset or
silk slip beneath most be dainty in the
extreme. The washing satin slips are
charming and infinitely softer and more
durable than Slate. The tight-fitting slip
is indispensabla for any woman inclined to
stoutuess. and when they are worn sepa-
rately the blouse sets very much better,
while still maintaining the idea of loose-
ness and comfort, which seems to be the
distinotive feature of the blouse.
A favorite tennis hat with young Paris-
iennes is on the Pavama order, but in rice
straw. The only trimming is an Oriental
scarf tied in a bow around the crown, the
long ends being fringed.
Black, gray and brown are the colors
most keen in the dresses of the smartest
women, while the mostard or ochre tint is
next favored.
