FARM XOTES
—For winter lambs breed the ewes in
July.
f —Too heavy salting destroys the favor
of good butter.
— Keep vour fowls olean and dry and
there will not be wueh danger from dis
ease.
— Keep the ewes on grass till November,
and then coofine them iu clean sheds aod
feed oats, bran and oil meal,
—~There is an advantage nv rapid milk-
ing, providing it is done without burting
the cow, and she is milked clean.
~There were 2500000 more hogs
slaughtered at the Western packing houses
in 1907 thao in any former year.
— Lancaster oonnty, (Pa ) farmers are
planting locust groves oo their farms. One
farmers bas plavted S000 trees on 35
acres,
— If tools are painted with a coat of crude
petrolenu before being put away it will
prevent the metal from rusting and
preserve the wood.
—Syrayiog is one of the absolutely es-
sential factors in profitable apple grow-
ing. Usually four or five sprayings will be
necessary to insure a crop of high class
frous,
— Lettuce is an exoellent food for young
geese and ducks. Usnally there is wore
in the garden than the family uses. This
can be fed with profit. It ® to raise it
for young waterfow!, and all kinds of poul-
try like it.
— When necessary to draw a nail or
sorew that is hard to start, very oftena
sharp tap with a hammer will loosen it.
Shonld this fail, put on kerosene oil and
les it soak a while. It is a good plan to
ut a little linseed oil on screws and nails
ore using, for they will enter the wood
more easily.
—Tests at the Indiana Experiment Sta-
tion indicate that pigs make better gains
when their grain is fed dry than they do
when is is mixed with water. This would
suggest that shose who take the trouble to
mix grain with water before feeding waste
their sime and, to a slight extens, the food
value of the grain.
—There ie a limit to the profit-earniog
of a chicken, and it must be sold when
that limit is reached or before. Unless a
bird is growing into money, or laying eggs,
or hatohing chickens, it is a dead expense.
Just aboas this time is she time to clean
up and get rid of everything thas is not
needed for next season’s breeding. We
have written of this master before but all
mortals are 0 prone to forget or to post.
pone duties thas ought to be performed at
once, thas we will be pardoned for reiterat-
ing the advice.
Clipping off the flight feathers of a wing
to prevent a fowl from flying over a fence
causes it to look misshaped or one-sided.
There is po necessity for cutting off the
feathers. The object can be attained by
ousting off the inner web of four or five of
the long flight feathers, so they can not
hold against the air and the wing will
retain ite place, and the outside of the
same will not be disfigured. Do nos de-
stroy the wing by clipping it alter the molt-
ing season on such fowls as are intended
for selling or showing.
— According to chemical analysis, old
process linseed oil meal contains an av-
erage of about 5 per cent. of nitrogen, 2
per cent. of phosphoricacid and 1} per cent.
of potash. Nitrogen may be purchased in
nitric of soda at 15 cents a pound, phos-
phoric acid in raw bonemeal at about 5
cents, and potash in mariate of potash at
4} cents, these being among the cheapest
commercial sources of fertilizing sub.
stances. New process linseed oil contains
ahous 1 per cent. more nitrogen than the
old process. As it has been demonstrated
that not more than one-third of the fer-
tilizing value of a feeding stoff is lost in
feeding, provided the manure be carefully
saved used, linseed meal offers a cheap
source of fertility to the farmer.
—Keep a good watch over your chicks
during this wet weather and see that they
have dry quarters or you are liable to lose
moss of them.
Such continued wet weather we have
rarely seen and the mortality among chicks
has been enormous. We have heard of
several parties losing four and five hundred
chicks each.
Half hearted effort will never bring sac-
cess in pouiiry raising or any other line of
endeavor. If you expect to accemplish
anything worth while you will have to he
an enthusiast and get a hustle on you. If
we could raise prize-winners or extra heavy
layers without giving any special thought
to mating or care in rearing the fowls,
what encouragement would shere be for
the fellow who works hard?

A long, straight nose shows a tranquil,

The nose that is too deeply indented at

the forehead, with no such mark between
the eyes, indicates a strong sense of power.
Let snch a nose show a slight indication,

EXPLOSION ON KEARSARGE
Five Seriously Injured By Bursting of |
a Steam Pipe.
Honolulu, July 21.—By the bursting
of a steam pipe of the forward star
board boiler of the battleship Kear
sarge of the Atlantic fleet, five of the
fire room crew were injured seriously.
Fires were drawn after the accident
and the steam plant was disabled for
nine hours.
All the injured are doing well and
none will die, although all are suffer
ing from burns caused by the scalding
steam. The bursted steam pipe con-
nected the forward starboard boiler
with the dynamos. In order to make
repairs it was necessary to draw all
the fires and allow everything to cool.

Bishop Potter Suffers Relapse.
Cooperstown, N. Y., July 21.—Bishop
Henry Codman Potter, who has been
fll since June 27 at Fernleigh, Mrs.
Potter's bome here, suffered a relapse
and his condition is again grave.
Throughout the illness of the bishop
oxygen has occasionally been admin-
istered, but now the quantity has been
greatly increased. The condition of the
artries is such that the circulation is
seriously hindered. Both of the lower
limbs are affected, one of them having
been rendered useless. Resort was had
to drugs to ease the pain. It is not be-
lieved that death Is imminent, but it is
known that hope of recovery is quite
abandoned.
Must ‘Destroy Many Fine Orchards.
Port Chester, N. Y., July 21.—Ho-
bart J. Park and Mrs. Homan Clark,
of New York, are among many ordered
to destroy fine orchards near this place
because of the San Jose scale, which
has attacked nearly all the trees in the
vicinity. The state department of ag-
riculture has issued the order to cut
down diseased trees, and it is expected
that in a month there will not be an
apple tree in Port Chester.

The old fable of the grasshopper who
sang and danced through the summer and
starved in the winter is only a Jaabje of
life. If we would have strength in old age
we must store it in the summer of life. It
ie important that men in middle age
should not allow the vital powers to run
low. To prevent this requires something
more than a stimulant. It requires a
medicine Which will increase the appelite,
give the stomach power 10 convert she {
eaten into nourishment, and increase the
quantity and quality of the blood. Such
a medicine is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. It strengthens the stomach
and organs of digestion and nutrition,
purifies the blood and inoreases the action
of the blood making glands. It is a
strength-giving body-building medicine
