Bellefonte, Pa., November 20, 1908. —————————————————————— FARM NOTES, —Never allow a pig to go over six weeks castrati old without on. —Sows with long bodies generally prove to be the best ers. —The meat of the pure-bred goat is ex- cellent, and very similar to mutton. —Sbake up the bedding, and put it ont- side thr sable on tack 5 air and dey. ~Feeding too much corn is the osuse of many oases of weakness in the bind legs. —A well bred sire will often add $wo to three pound in weight of flesh or fleece over a poor cue. —Colts from a stallion thas is kept in a stable, with little or mo are usually inferior. —Hay sustains the working horse best, bat a little grass now aod then is an ex- cellent regulator. —I% is very important 30 proses sh from wet weather, although they can Ss considerable cold. —Feeding sheep in low, marshy pastures is about te most unfavorable ry under which they can be kept. —There are few greater money-making industries in this country than mutton raising when properly managed. —Eogland is the markass for large quan. tities American butter, and this de- mand may result in higher prices. —Pumpkine, squashes, carrots, beets, clover, milk, oats, shorts and grass make better feed for hogs than all corn, although part corn is good. —In Paris last year 50,208 horses were killed for food, which was 5000 more than the ous year. These animals yielded 26,600,000 pounds of meat for human oon- sumption. —Too close confinement of hogs injures the quality of the meat. All ani re- quite exercise to develop properly and have normal health, and good health and vitality are necessary to the production of good, wholesome flesh food for man. ~The best time to plant cherry trees in the North, according to Joseph Meehen, is early in the fall or very early in spring. It is bester to plant in October, even before the leaves fall, stripping the leaves off, than is is late, juss before winter sets in. ~The dairy heifer 1s developed by feed. ing bulky and nouo-fattening feed. To de- velop into a good milker she shouid be bred early, as a milking bahit comes from iatent milking. The bellied calf pot desirable, but in a heifer it some- times means a good cow. —Barley is the earliest of the small grains to mature. Sixty days of favorable weather from the sowing will show the farmer his return seed, and it is the most nutritions of all the grains. As early green pastare it is not excelled ; the young bar- ley is richer as a food than eats, and we wonder that more barley is not sown. — Professor W. L. Carlysle of she Univer- sity of Wisconsin, says in order to bea successful herdsman a mao must possess an inherent love of animals, since nothing but this feeling on the part of the man will in- Aire thud runs and aouienss oo the part the animals which is 80 very essential to their successful breeding and management. --The corn eorib should be narrow and slatted on the sides and ends, so that a free circulation of air is possible in all direo- tions. Some farmers place hollow orates in the oribs as they are filled, so that there will be no heating or spoiling in the centre of the maes. Heating destroys the corn germ. —The Angora goat reaches the size of an ordioary sheep, bus is slower to mature. They will thrive and live in any olimate of our country where sheep will. They are not as good milkers as the Maltese and Swiss goats, but they give plenty for rear- ing their young. Goats are very domestic, and will not waoder from their range When once located for afew days and salted. —For horses fagged out after a tiring journey, there is no safer or better tonic than a ‘white drink,’”’ made by stirriog a pint of oatmeal in a pail of water off which the chill has been taken. White drinks of this kind are not only good thirst guench- ers, but they also seem to act as restor- atives, and are found very effective in en- | bod abling animals to regain the ‘‘tonicity’’ of constitation lost either through illness or through undergoing severe exertion. —Jt a cow is fractious, a halter passed round ber borna vives a man greater power over ber than if 34 ia pasted 1onud $hs bee} e patience eis bus there is nothi to be humbled. e owner should stand at her bead while the man is milking, and talk to her, giving her a few pieces of appie or beat, and encourage her in every ble way. Ifshe is roughiy used she wiii only become worse, and probably overturn the pail, or put her foot into it more often. ~The Swiss Bee Journal says in speaking of honey as a care for burns, that a child 2 years old was severely burned on the arm, in boiling water. The member was immediately bathed in honey and wrapped in a linen cloth. The paio at once ceased and the healing was very rapid, the honey keeping the air from the barn. "The band- age was changed every day. It was easily removed, without hurting the child, by moistening the cloth with warm water. —If sexes are equal, Guinea fowls will pair. They generally lay between 10 o'clock a. m.and 2 o'clock p. m. The oung are delicateand tender until fall eathered. The cook bird cares for the young jass the same as does the hen, anarding them during the day, and hover- og over them at night. The male is larger thao the female, is more aggressive, and bas a different call, sonnding like ‘‘tick, tick ?'’ The poise of the hen 1s similar to “Come back, come back !"’ —Hools of colts should be looked to oo- casiovally to see il any trimming is re. quired. [If this is not done when neces. sary the feet may become permanently mis- shaped. Turved.in or turned-oat toes and too long heels are some of the evils that may result from negleot of this matter. In trimming, the only part that can be pared when over-grown is the wall at the quar- ters, at the toe or at the heel. The frog must never be touched, and the bears must not be cat away. Colts running on soft, damp soils require more frequent attention than shose running on barder ground, which wears their hoofs more evenly. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. GRACE FOR THANKSGIVING. For all Thy care and loving kindness, Lord, Accept our thanks » ho gather ‘round this board We see Thy goodness in each perfect thing: The sky, the sea, the bird on happy wing And every blade that makes the velvet sward. With hearts and lips in worshipful accord Do we recount the blessings on us poured, And lift our voices hymas of praise to sing, For all Thy care. Help us to help the needy and ignored; Teach us mere riches no true peace afford, And graat to each that he may often bring Some consciousness to Thee of laboring To prove, O Guardian! a worthy ward. For all Thy esre. . —By Edward W. Barnard. Feasting and football, that’s to be the order of the day! And not so different after all from the celebration of our fore-fathers three years after their landing on the chilly Massachusetts coast late in that momen- tous year. There was the feasting, which- ever bird or animal they saw fis to choose. Perhaps it was venison, perbaps wild tor- key. There wae a wide choice. There was no football, however. The ouly probable sport was an encounter with Lo, the poor Indian, and a possible scalping bee, for, alas! owing to unecrupulous traders she Red Man had come to misunderstand the Pilgrims. In those days they enyoyed all the goodies they could copy from those made in sheir native land. As time went by they invented dishes which were altogether American. Later generations, knowing nothing of she good- ies of “Merrie England,” had tbese for their ideals. They eotually disposed of dioners, the mere contemplation of which woulz make a dyspeptio’s bair etand on AN OLD-TIME FEAST. Is is eaid to be a fact thas they thought nothing of eating for their Thanksgiving dinver oyster stew, roast turkey, epare rib, sausage, head cheese, mashed slaw, onions, turvips, pickles, hot hiscuits, currant jelly, honey, preserves, fruit cake, doughnuts, four sorte of pie (mince, pump- kin, custard and apple,) cheese tea, coffee and cider. And the doughnuts are vo “merry jest,” as one learns from the ‘‘old- ess inhabitant,” People really ate them. It is a fact, though, thas early deaths were a much commoner feature in the ‘‘good old times.” Those who survived were tough, and to them, with their outdoor Me, he doughnut was a mere gastronomic etail. There's no necessity for baviog the din- ner too old-fashioned, unless one’s palate really oraves the old dishes. It should, however, be entirely American. Oar bpa- tive game is so varied that there's no ne- cessity for foreign frills. Most persone make the American bird, the sarkey, the piece de resistance, and rightly. The elaborate, banques:like dinner is not traly American. There is no reason, though, why the Amerioan dinner should not be absolutely delicious, as is usually is. Fol- lowing is the splendid, though simple feast which one woman is to have served when all her family are gathered 'round the fes- tive board. A HOME DINNER. Cream of tomato, Bread sticks. Celery. Planked fish, Sliced cucumbers. Riced potatoes, Roast turkey, cranberry jelly. Roasted sweet potatoes. Asparagus. Lettuce salad, French dressing. Roquefort cheese. Wafers. Pumpkin custard. Coffee. Salted almonds. Bounbons, ORNAMENTAL DETAILS, Nothing is neglected in the way of el- feos. The dinner must he as attractive to the eye as to the palate, whether it be as simple as possible or a grave affair, with a olever menu and the various wines. Here is an original cover suggestion which voices the whole sentiment, she Cupids indicating clearly that that it is a love feast. Let us hope they take coats if they really go to the game! For flowers the chrysanthemum is first choice. U. of P. enthusiasts way prefer to have a bouquet composed of blue violets and red roses or carnations. The football serves for a centiepiece, too. It may be made to play vase by thrusting blossoms iu the opening. The big, orna- mental footballs cost $1 in the s Cases for pates and ices are to be bad in delightfully suitable designs. Some show large rime, a good part of a turkey being represented. Or a fine obrysanthemum may figure in this fashion. A bigger turkey oase is most noticeable. It costs 35 cents and is a beautiful bird, entire save for the space scooped out iu its y. For candle shades the chrysanthemum is the leader. Cho«en in the color and har- mooizing with the cat blossoms and the furnishings, these are as pretty as possible. There are paper ‘mums, $00, that are made to contain ices and pates. There's no rea- son why the least of feasts should not bea 2000688. Glass candlesticks are in high favor, par- ticularly those of old colonial design. y are excellent for a table decoration, with solt-colored shades. For the mantel there are tall, stutely column candiestioks, which should have no shades at all. Some of the bandsomest are of the simplest patterns. Single sticks are more effective +t the candelabrum or any of the branched de- vioes, and they cau be placed to mach bet- ter advantage. Nearly all of the modern designs in candlesticks are copies. There is very little shat is original among them. Some old oues are accompanied by esoutoh- eons of metal or of glass, which, in either case, are shield-shaped and engraved. Modernized ones have the family coat of arms opon them. The shields originally had a use other than that of decoration, for they served as a protection against draughts when carried through those long, old-fashioned halls. OYSTER COCKTAILS. For this, the oysters should he small, and boughs solid, or free from lignid. For » gaais of ogsters, mix three tablespoon- fuls of horseradish, three of tomato catsup, three of lemon juice, salt to taste, and a dash of tobasoo sauce or cayenne pepper. Serve in small glasses. Juss before they are wanted, place five or six oysters, well chilled, in each glass, pour a little of the sauce over aud drop a small section of lem- on on top. COFFEE BOMBE. Line a mold with coffee and chocolate ice, and fill center with a vanila ice oream, or a plain whipped cream filled with can- died red oherries and green-gage plams out into pieces. The fruits should be soaked ina fruit syrop before adding to the oream. The mold should be packed in ice and salt four hours. hot | Pf History of bdoclalism in England. Continued from page two. By «HE gradually becoming more sympathetio to Socialism. On January 20-23 of this year, the eighth annual meeting of ‘The British La- bor Party’ was held at Hall. There were 420 delegates at the conference, the largest in the party’s history. Walter Hudeouo, M. P., was chairman and in his opening address he showed the party had begun the year with 261 affiliated organizations and a membership of 998,338 and olosed with a total of 276 affiliated organizations and a membership of 1,072,413. The organiza- SERINE oos co-operative society 2 socialist organizations—the Independent Labor Party and the Fabian Society. The Woman's Lote League was admitted to membership by acclamation, because of ite activity in past elections. On she third of the conference the Socialist resolu- tion, proposed by the Amalgamated Socie- ty of Engineers came up. This resolution read as follows : ‘“That in the opinion of this Conference the time has arrived when the Labor Party should bave, as a definite object, the socialization of the means of production, distribution and exchangs, to be controlled by a Democratic State in the interest of the entire community and com- plete emanci of labor from the domi- pation of talism and landlordism, with the establishment of social and economic equality between the sexes.”” This resolu- sion was adopted by a vote of 514,000 to 469,000. The Socialist movement in England, fol- lowing the national temperament, has al- ways been more or less along the path of least resistance. These Socialists are what are called *‘possibleiste’’ in distinotion to the ‘‘impossibleists.” In Socialism as in all great movements, there are two lines of tactics, those of concession and those of no- compromise—the pany who says take what you can get and the party who says take all or nothing. The Eoglish government has heen developed on the principle of com- omise, so is is natural tbat her socialism should be of shat kind. In the last few years two parties have been forming, which will in the near fa- ture draw to themselves the minor divie- ions in the Empire. They are the party of Conservatism and the party of Socialism. ELizABETH M. BLANCHARD.
