Bellefonte, Pa., August 2, 1907.
FARM NOTES.
—When sheep hurdle together and keep
their noses close to the ground, especially
if the ground is loose, it indicates attacks
from the ga fly, which deposits its eggs in
the nostrils, causing what is known as
grub in the head. Keep the nostrils of the
sheep well smeared with wood tar.
—Farmers are frequently offered disease-
proof plants and trees, so-called, but is
may be safely claimed that vo variety of
pear, apple, peach, gooseberry, cherry or
other fruit is exempt from diseases peculiar
to its species. Some varieties may not be
80 susceptible to disease as others, but if
within range of diseases they will surely
be attacked.
—Plow the ground for wheat as soon as
you can. When the weeds come up work
the ground over with a caltivator, and
work it again should more weeds appear.
Spread out the manure and work it into
the plowed ground. By the time the wheat
is to be seeded the laud will be in an ex-
cellent condition for the seed and the crop
will start off well.
—A farmer who has tried several modes
of destroying cat worms finds tbat an ex-
cellent method is to use a stick three feet
long and one and one-fourth inches in di-
ameter, sharpeved at one end, with which
two or three holes are punched in the
ground near each plant. 2 cut worm is
sluggish and falls into the bole, from
which it cannot easily escape.
—As goon as the pigs begin to seek their
feed, at any age, they should he taught to
drink ; good milk should he given them in
a trough by themselves, with warm guar-
ters, and with a plentiful supply of milk,
thickened with middlings and meal, they
should make delicions young pork at five
months old, weighing from 80 to 100
pounds or more, and should bring prices
that will pay a good profit to the grower.
—Every farmer should bave a few sheep,
in order to save much of the material
grown that may be wasted. Sheep will
eat a great many plants which cattle reject,
and they graze closer to the ground.
Young and tender weeds are delicious to
sheep, and they, therefore, assist in ridding
the field of such pests. A small flock of
mutton sheep should be kept, if for no
other purpose than to supply the family
with choice meat.
—Improved stock leads to better care, as
a rule. Thus it is the benefit of pure blood
combined with the best mavagement and
keeping that makes the most successfal
and profitable results on the farm. The
farmer who undertakes to make the farm
y withont good stock and good care—and
t may be added, good treatment—is spend-
ing bis life in getting experience which is
essential to success, while the more pro-
gressive farmers go straight to prosperity
with these important requisites.
—The time to determine which sheep to
keep is during shearing ; then the owner,
by directing and overseeing operations,
can cause to be marked such as are light
shearers, aged sheep, in poor condition,
without lambs, ete., and in the ordinary
flocks, allowing that one-third may be
sold, it is more than probable that the
value of the two-thirds remaining, the flock
to be kept, will bring as good av income
and be, in reality, worth as much as if the
inferior sheep remain to lower the standard
of the lot.
~The flowing away from the manure
heap of the rich, black liquids that the
rains wash down is the deprivation of the
most valuable elements that exist in the
manare heap. It is the jugular vein which
once severed, soon destroys the hedy.
When the liquids begin to accumulate in.
close them with an embankment, or con-
struct a tank for their reception. Pump
or bail them upon the solid portion, and if
necessary, turn over the whole mass and
saturate it. True economy, however, sug:
gests that manure be sheltered from expos-
nre.
—It is a common fault with many ama-
teargardeners that they attempt to raise
too many kinds of ornamental plants. They
are atrtacted by the pleasing description in
seed catalogues, and order 15 or 20 species
of plants which they bave never tried be-
fore. They are almost sure to be disap-
Jointed in a good part of them from their
kof time and knowledge in managing
them. To get the most enjoyment from
flowera they should give as little anxiet
as possible. Itis wiser to learn to culti-
vate one plant well than to grow a dozen
different kinds. Try only two or three
new sorts each year, and get well acquaint.
ed with them before trying others.
—It the cows are to be kept in full flow
of milk they should be kept on the best of
food, with a small allowance of coarse
provender; but for dry cows, oxen, sheep
or animals that require food only for the
support of their bodies the coarse foods
should compose a large portion of the ra-
tion. Animals that are used for breeding
pu need not be very fat, and with
Lh pp and a fair allowance of grain
the straw and fodder may be used with the
hay. Itis nos suggested that hay be dis-
carded, nor are straw and fodder p!
as regular foods, but rather to urge that it
is economical and profitable to put such
foods to better use than is usoal on farws,
and to aim to derive a profit from that
which is sometimes wasted.
—Orcbardists in Tasmania are snbjecs to
a fine from $2.50 to $5, with costs, if they
fail to bandage their trees to keep down
the coddling moth or if they fail to gather
or destroy any infested fruit. Wormy ap-
ples sent to market are liable to confisca-
tion and destruction, and the shipper to be
Jroituted. In New South Wales ail in-
froit coming from other colonies
may be seized or destroyed, or returned to
the shipper at its own expense. Fruit
growers are generally assisting the Govern-
ment in enforcing these laws. Similar laws
in this country for a few years would seem
a hardship to many parties, but would bea
benefit to frait growers and to the country
if they were strictly enforced.
—1It is a matter of economy, as well as
meroy, to rly mate horses that have
to work side by side through the seige of
bard work during the year. While two
horses may be about the same size aud ap-
pearance in their eral make-up, one
may not be able to do near the amount of
work without injury that the other can do
with ease. Every farmer should know
en sions ie Bites to, Journ i
a e, if possible, by placing
horses of equal endurance in the same
team, or by equaling their labor in some
way which are to draw, This may
be done by giv the weaker horse the
advantage of the long ends of the double
tree, or some other way that may be de-
vised by those having the matter in charge.

FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN.
DAILY THOUGHT.
The bread of life is love; the salt of life is
work.
The following directions for restoring
desirable
by the Hamane Society:
I. Send with all speed for medical aid,
for artioles of clothing, blankets, etc.
II. Treat the patient on the in the
open air, exposing the face and chest freely
0 the breeze, except in too cold weather.
III. Place the patient gently on the face
(to allow any fluids to flow from the
month).
IV. Then raise the patient into a sitting
posture, and endeavor to excite respiration
1. By snuff, bhartshorn, etc., applied to
the nostrils.
2. By irritating the throat by a feather
or the finger,
3. By dashing hot or cold water alter-
pately on the face and chest. If there be
no success, lose no time bat
V. Replace the patient on his face, his
arms under his bead, that the tongue may
fall forward and leave the entrance into the
windpipe free, and that any flaids may
flow out of the mouth, then
1. Tarn the body graduoally but com-
pletely on the side, and a little more, and
then again on the face, alternately (to in-
duce inspiration and expiration. )
2. Wheu replaced apply pressure along
the back and ribs, and then remove it (to
induce further expriation and inspiration),
and proceed as belore.
3. Let these measnres he repeated geut-
ly, deliberately, but efliciently and pre-
servingly sixteen times a minute only.
Continuing these measures, rub all the
limbs and the trunk upward with warm
bands, making firm pressure energetical-
ly. Replace the wet cloths by such other
coverings, etc., as can be procured.
To these directions may well be added
the suggestion that when in proper condi-
tion the patient be given hot stimulauts to
relieve exhaustion. These should be given
Sausiongly and from time to time in small
oses.
Nothirg is more refreshing when ex-
hausted by heat than a camphor bath. The
action of the gum upon the skin and bead
is highly beneficial and may be bad by
mixing two ounces of tineture of camphor,
half au ounuce of tinctare of benzoin and
four ounces of cologue of alcohol. Enough
of this is put into the tub to make the
water aromatio, and the body is immersed
for 15 minntes or more.
More stimulating than plain sea salt is a
combination ol one pound of mauriate of
soda, one-half pound of sulphate of soda, a
quarter of a pound of chloride of maguesia.
The ingredients are dissolved in two or
three gallons of water and put into the
usual tab of water.
A soda bath is especially cooling when
the blood and skin are heated and bas
beneficial results. Common bicarbonate
of soda is used, and four or five ounces are
put into the tab of clear water, the tem-
rature of which is not high, says the
New York Evening Telegram. Soap may
be used with this, but a long soaking of
the body is better.
The length of time that a person may re-
main in a tub must be decided by the indi-
vidual, for too long immerson is weaken-
ing. At the same time the body should
have all the refreshment it can get.
Fifteen minutes are not too long for the
strong person,
Such a bath taken just belore going to
bed will refresh one sufficiently to insure a
good night's rest many times, and a show-
er on getting up in the morning is worth
many times what the apparatus costs.
Almost every tub is now fitted for a band
spray, but when this is lacking spraying
arrangements are to be found at any toilet
department or druggist’s, The shower
taken should be a cold, or at least cool,
oue, and need not consume more than two
minutes if ove is pressed for time. It is as
ivigortiog as fresh water to a drooping
ower.
To take out a blood stain, cover the spot
with cold raw starch, just wet enough to
wake a paste, and leave until it is dry.
To remove wine stains, spread the
blemished fabric over a bow! and pour
boiling salt water through it from a
height.
Machine oil should be washed out ino
cold water before the article stained with
it goes to the lanndress.
A woman who is so fortunate as to own
several pieces of valuable old lace cleans
the small pieces in this way: She covers a
sheet of white paper with a layer of calcined
magnesia, Li the lao: over it very
straight and then covers it with the mag-
nesia, puts another paper over it, lays the
pa) between the leaves of a heavy hook
leaves it there for two or three days.
As a rale, when the powder is shaken ous,
the lace is clean.
I bave it on the best of ausbority thas
the styles of 1875 will be ushered in for
autamo. Oue great Paris firm has made
or is making all ite models for the street
wear of this cut to be exhibited as the fall
opening in two months. Of course, with
our ideas, the style is hideous, says the
New York Sun For example, the skirt
will be rather tight-fitting and finished
with a severe tanic sparsely plaited at the
back. The basque is tight-fitting, made
with the old-fashioned ts, pointed in
front and back in the real basque effect,
and the sleeves are long, snug and flat.
Could anything else be more unsightly?
This one I chanced to see was a fright, and
yet who knows bat that hy the time they
are worn a few weeks we may decide that
all other kinds of dress are tame beside
them in beauty? So muck for the vagaries
of human nature.
Corsetieres are making their wares short-
er in the back. The garment is returning
to the shape it held ten years ago—hig
under the arms and back, slanting at the
{ oentre. The makers are also returning to
the plain white coutil corset.
Weak ammonia water will clean hair
brushes very rapidly, and keep the bristles
white and stiff.
Potato salad is much nore savory il mix-
ed with the salad dressing while hot and
before serving.
If you put a piece of bread on top of
your knife when peeling onions they will
not affect the eyes.

Unsatisfactory.
The old farmer was looking over a comic
paper the storekeeper at the crossroads had
given him.
“I don't think much uv this paper, no-
how,’ he remarked.
“What's th’ matter with it ?"’
his wife.
“‘They ain't nothin’ much in it but piec-
