Demo ada " Bellefonte, Pa.. September I8. 1908. ES ——— A —— FARM NOTES. sn. —Always see that colonies have queens. —Neatsfoot oil is an excellent remedy for scaly legs in fowls. —Have you ever been able to discover the economy of the hall-starved cat? —Even flow of milk can be secured from oy cows by proper management and —The first two years of a cow’s life al- most inevitably determine ber future use- fulness. Commercial apple growing i= paying iu- creasing dividends to those engaged in the business. —Plenty of shade for the hens these days and they must have a cool house to roost in at nighs. —Some farmers are so scientific as to lose sight of the practical ends to be ob- tained by their scientific notions. —Do not allow any strong-flavored food, like garlio, cabbage or turnips, to be eaten, except immediately after milking. —The game of checkers in the corner store may sharpen your wits, but it will not drive out the weeds from the corn field. —If she cats are fed extra well during the period when the young ohicks are run- ning free you will find they will not be so prone to an occasional chicken dinner. ~- After the horses have been working bard and sheir bair is all matted down with sweat, it rests them much to give them a good currying just before bed- time. —Very rich cream is likely to paste or thicken io the cburn, #o that concussion ceases. Add enough water of the same temperature as the cream to dilute it so that is will drop. —The sare that the heifer gets the first few times she is milked determines ina large measure whether she is going to enjoy the milking operation. The kicking cow is not or pe is made that way by the owner or milker. —A mules’ hoof, being smaller and tougher than that of the average horse does not need shoeing unless on bard roads a great deal. Beiter not shoe if confined to work on the farm, unless used to haul loads on frozen ground. —8heep manure is the best manure and will improve the land faster than any other kind of mavore made on the farm, with the possible exception of that made by fowls, which is quite frequently termed ‘‘American guano.” —A good liniment for all kinds of swell- ings on dairy cows, as well as on all other farm animals, is made by mixing equal parts of turpentine, sweet oil and spirits of camphor. Apply liberally and frequently to the swollen parts. —Cream that contains too much skim milk and is too old will foam. Never add hot water to the cream. tt should be taken from the churn and heated by placing the pan in a pan of bot water and stirring until the deisred temperature is reached. —When a horse is working hard socen- lent foods are injurious, as, through laxity of the bowels produced by them, vutrient matters are carried off undigested, depriv- ing the animal of the veeded nutiients to keep up she flesh, vim and vigor—in other words, to supply tissue waste. —William J. Bryau, the Democratic can didate for the Presidency, in a recent speech said: ‘‘Burn down your cities and leave our farms, and your cities will spring up again as if by magic. Bat destroy ovr farms and the grass will grow in the streets of every city in this conntry.”’ —In many farmhouses the cellar is vot cemented, #0 that when heavy rains come in the spring water is apt to make trouble. There is just one way to keep such a cellar dry, and that is by putting in a cement floor and thorongh drainage for the outside of the walls. Detter cement it now. —Cow pea hay is very nutritions. It is pearly equal to wheat bran as part ofa ration. It ie satisfactory for work ssook and for beef or miik production, and it ives good results when fed to a grain is a riob feed, excellent for poul- try, bus little used for other feeding. —An iron weight with a strap attached to it should always be carried in the farm wagon. The moment the horse is stopped and she driver is to leave the team, the weighs should be dropped on the ground and the strap fastened to the horse. Th will make is safer thao to alloow the team to stand unhitched. —Professor Rommel, of the National Bureau of Amimal Industry, ways his in- vestigations show that the sows of the Poland -Cbiba breed bave inoreased in fecundity during the past 20 years. A 10- year ment shows that while the Po- land-China litters average 7.52, the Daroo- Jerseys average 9.26. —Bee keepers who work much with their bees soon become acoustomed to stinging and do not suffer much. Experi. ments made to ascertain the number of stings required to inconlate the blood shows that about 30 at the rate of three or four a day will suffice, after which the ef- feot of bee poison is trivial. —*'*Vegetable milk" is used in Japan. It is made from the soja bean. The liguid is exactly like cow's milk in , and in taste can hardly be distinguished from it. To wake it the beauvs are first soaked and shen boiled in water. Some sugar aud phosphate of potassium are added, and it is boiled down till it has the consistency of condensed milk. —Iun all operations with bees it is neces. say to be gentle. All quick, sndden jars motions irritate them. Bees are al- ways more gentle and less inclined to sting when shey are gathering plenty of honey, and at soch times the hives can be opened with very little danger. When there isa dearth of honey the inmates of the same hive might show a great spirit of resent- ment. —Dr. Howard, secretary of the American Society for the advancement of science, writing of the manner in which seeds are carried to great distances by birds, recites an experiment of Darwin which bad a curious result. Adhering to the leg ofa wounded partridge Darwin found a ball of earth weighing six and a half ounces. From the seeds contaioed in this ball he raised 32 plants, belonging to five distinot species. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. DAILY THOUGHT. This fine old world of ours is but a chiid Yet in the go-cart. Patience ! Give it time To learn fis limbs ; there is a hand that guides. — Tennyson. The artificial hair pufls that bave so long craze are eutirely out of style. row of curls placed around the of the head have been too common to be fashionable and even the three pufls just below the crown are avoided by the well- ressed woman. However, one or two soft puffs of your own hair arranged on the top bead is permissible. |e & g Flat bair dressing is required of the fashionable woman today. Sbe can’t the bair in the middle, she mast simulate a part. She most flatten out the hair un. til is reaches the temples, then itis ar- ranged in as huge a pcmpadour as the face osn stand. This is built to hold ap the huge bats of the season, which have such large crowns that they would slip down otherwise. A straight part is not becoming to every face, and many foreheads are so high thas is is not possible to draw the bair away from them. When this is the case art mast help pa- tare. A small rat is worn to pat the bair forward, and it is shen par helow this roll, above the eyehrows and drawn loose- ly into large bandeaux at the side. The knot or double puff is no longer worn oo top of the head. It is bails up just at the lower edge of the crown in order to keep the hat from slipping at the back. There is also a return to small soft carle around the face. These are bought oftener than made, for women do not want to cut up their bair into short locks. There is so much false hair worn now that the addition of a few little ringlets in front is a mere detail. A detail of which even the most fastidi- ous women seem numindful is the frequent washing of side combs. Although those same women may be scrupulous regarding the care of the comb and Do whioh they uee in arranging the bair they seem to for- get thas the combs which are worn demand even more vigilance. Hygiene exacts shat the side combs he washed twice a week in warm: water in whish has been dissolved one tablespoonfal of borax to each quart of water. Rinse by holding nnder cold water faucet and allowing the water to run throngh with force. Satin is to be the favorite material of the winter. It is to be used for whole frocks, for evening wraps and for trimmings. Wide and narrow pipings will be nsed on coats both for street and for evening. Even tar coate of black Persian lamb and caracul are shown with these immense pip- ings of heavy satin ountliving the fronts, the sleeves and the wide pooket flap. If one has a black cloth suit that needs freshening it is a very good idea to attach pipings of satin. They givea rich look and show that one knows what is being worn. Evening gowns made of chiffon or mousse- line or the new filet tulle will have pipings from two to six inches wide to outline any of the drapery. This idea is quite effective when colored satin pipings are used on white or ecru transparent frocks. Oone gown for a debutante bas white files tulle which is quite coarse and not perish- able, bas a tunic and shoulder draperies pi with four inches of light green satin. e mistake is not made of lining this frock with green. It is dropped over white liberty satin, the edge of which is bound with green. This later trick, hy the way, is a good touch to remember. Any lining shat is light can carry a border of colored satin to correspond with the color scheme of the frock. It is also a good touch to hind the pleat ing on a taffeta underslip with two inches of floss to match the skirt. This keeps the silk from wearing out when rubbing over the shoe leather. The early importation of fall hats does not show a real Merry Widow sailor among them. The Breton sailor is here in sol felt, but it is nos extreme. This does not mean that hats as large as foe Merry Widow will not be worn. They will, It only means that the exact shape of this particular hat has not been imitated in fel, satin or velvet. There are many bats that are larger than anything seen this summer. How they sn he kept on the head is a leading ques- on. For Cucumber Salad.—Cut a slice from a cucumber and scoop ous the inside. Cut is bits of tomato in similar size and mix the two with French dressing. Return to the shell and put each cucumber on a plate by itself, on lettuce. Swall, round balls of oream cheese are nice to serve with this. Hot Cheese Sandwichee.—Make these of graham bread sliced very thin. Spread with a paste made by rubbing six table- spoonfuls of freshly grated cheese with two tablespoonfuls of buster. Sprinkle with salt, add a dash of paprika, press iwo sides of the sandwich firmly together, and fry in hot butter. When lightly browned they are ready to serve. Since the fashion came in for blue and buff, the Continental colors, it bas spread to house decorations and now to stationery. The new writing paper is the real Colo- nial bluff, with a tiny border of pale blue. The initials are engraved in blue across the center top of the page. Those who do not like such gay paper use the plain buff. It is more preferred for country houses than for city homes. There is a great deal more liberty in the coloring of stationery at the seashore and mountain houses than could be allowed for the conventional brownstone front of the city. There is po denying that striped paper, inelegant as it appears to the many, has gained headway for country house use. It comes in white and blue, in gray and yel- low, in brown and white. It has the initials across the top, and at the left the Bate of the house, the village and the tate. Often there is added in the right corner the name of the station and the number of the telephone. The smartest pin to wear at the neck is the jeweled bow knot. It has practically taken the place of the diamond horseshoe. Some of the bow knots are set with rhine- stones, which make the prices popular, but those set with ous jet, garnets and ame- thyste are especially fashionable. Madman Hacks Family With Axe. | During a fit of temporary insanity, —re————————— Pearson Talley, aged sixty, of Wil mington, Del., attacked his wife with a | broadaxe while she was asleep in bed, | and after splitting her head open went to the bedroom occupied by his adopt- | ed daughter, Edith Johansen and her | husband, Andrew Johansen, and struck | Mrs. Johansen in the head with the axe, splitting her head open and cut-| ting out one of her eyes. Mr. Johan- sen was awakened by hearing his wife | moaning. When he opened his eyes he saw the aged man standing over him with the broadaxe raised, just about to deliver a blow. He at once grappled with him and succeeded in knocking off the first blow. Talley again struck him, how- ever, and inflicted a severe wound in the back of the head and a slight wound on the shoulder. He was sub- dued and placed under arrest. His victims are not expected to recover. Stabbed Girl In Sunday School. Miss W (lie Bullinger, nineteen years of age, was stabbed to death at Newton, N. C., by Lon Rader, aged twenty-one years. The girl was at the organ playing the closing hymn at Sunday school, when Rader sprang across several benches and with his pocket knife stabbed her in the back and breast. She died almost instantly. Rader was arrested and is now in the Newton jail. Some months ago he was committed to the state insane asylum and in his ravings often mentioned Miss Bullinger's name. Recently he was discharged as cured. The deed was probably prompted by unrequited love. Boy Preferred Death to School. William, the fourteen-year-old son of Leander Sheetz, a hotelkeeper of | Lancaster, Pa. committed suicide at the home of his parents because they compelled him to go to school. He had been employed as an errand boy by the constructors of a trolley road near his home during vacation and wanted to continue, When told he must go to school he told a companion he would rather be dead. After attend- ing the morning session at school he went to his room, where his sister heard the discharge of a gun. She went to the room and found the boy lying on the floor, with a gunshot wound in the head. Battling Nelson Knocks Out Joe Gans, Battliug Nelson clinched his claim to the light-weight pugilistic cham- pionship by defeating Joe Gans for the second time at the Colma arena at San Francisco. The fight ended in the twenty-first round, when Gans, beaten down by a succession of blows from his sturdy conqueror, failed to get upon his feet within the count of ten. The veteran colored fighter was severely punished, but the champion, too, bore the marks of battle. From the first clang of the gong to the last moment Nelson forced the fighting, never giving ground, and gradually battered down his older and less vigor- ous opponent. Hogs at Highest Price in Five Years. Hogs went to $7.30, the highest figures at which they have been quoted in Chicago since 1803. In the last two weeks the price has been steadily climbing, and when it reached $7.20 it was thought the high mark had been reached. Friday the price went to $7.22, but the price had eight cents more to climb. Retail butchers say that if the price us sustained pork will be a luxury. Pork chops, bacon, tenderloins and hams will go up at a bound. A Wedding Present. No hetter wedding present could be made than a copy of Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser.

MON ACHES AND ILLS OF BFLLEFONTE PEOPLE. As one weak link weakens a chain, so weak kidneys weaken the whole body and hasten the final breaking down. Overwork, strains, colds and other caus. es injure the kidneys, and when their ac- tivity is lessened the whole body suffers from the excess of uric poison circulated fo the blood. Aches and pains and languor and urina. ry ills come, and there is an ever increas ing tendency towards diabetes and fatal Bright's disease, There is no real help for the sufferer except kidney help. Doan's Kidney Pill« act directly on the kidneys and cure every kindey ill. Belle- fonte cures are the proof. Mrs. John Fisher, livingon8 Water St., Bellefonte, Pa, says: *‘I have often heard i husband speak of the great ben- efit he derived from the use of Doan's Kidney Pills, Atthe time he began us- ing them he was suffering severely from a lame back which laid him up from work for days at a time. He had sharp, shoot: ing pains through his loins and suffered acutely when beading. His kidneys also gave him much trouble as they were ir. srepniar in action. He procu a box of Doan's Kidney Pills at Green's drug store, and after using them wu short time received relief. Doan's Kidney Pills ban- ished the iameness in his back, stop the headaches and regulated the action of the kidneys, and he gives them the eredit for his cure.” Saddlery.
