Bellefonte, Pa., May 12, 1911.
FARM NOTES.
—Some folks believe in leaving the hen
entirely to herself after she has begun to
set.
—Water in which the chicken drop-
ings have been steeped makes a fine
fia manure for the garden.
—Rhode Island Reds are a compara-
tively new breed, but they have many
fri among poultrymen and farmers.
—The trap nest is a regular detective.
It tells the facts of the case, it tames the
hens, it gives accurate reports, it arrests
the robber hens, it gives an honest count
and it exposes the fraudulent hens.
—Temperament has a commercial value
in the horse-breeding industry. Farmers
should breed for reliable dispositions as
well as soundness and symmetrical con-
formation, if they wish to realize top mar-
ket prices for their horses.
—Cultivate your Irish potatoes often
but do not interfere with the roots and
tubers. It is a mistake to presse gt
potatoes require a amount 0!
soil worked up ED ts. Culti-
vate as near level as possible.
—With plenty of clover, hens will re-
quire little other feed so long as the clover
lasts; but as fowls are very fond of this |
plant, must be moved from place to!
place, if their numbers are very large, or
the clover will be eaten off too clean.
—There is such a thing as skimming
milk too thin and skimming it too thick.
That is, there are extremes in the con-
tents of butter fat beyond which we should
not go. The most satisfactory fat con-
tent for cream will probably be found in
the testing tetween 23 33 per cent.
It will give better satisfaction both for
butter and for milk.
fat.
—Sunflower seed contains about 16
cent. of protein and 21 per cent. of
It is nearly four times as fatteni
hens as corn, and must therefore be fed
with extreme caution. A small cent.

—A recent bulletin of the Michigan
i experiment station, gi
the fertilizer for 1910, offers
advice on the use of commercial fertiliz-
ers. Especially well stated are some
things that fertilizers will not do. Com-
mercial fertilizers cannot take the
of cultivation. Commercial fertilizers
cannot compensate for lack of moisture.
Commercial fertilizers do not add humus

to frost is really caused by twisti

supply of little frames to protect them
should be on hand. Tomatoes, peppers
and egg-plant are ally susceptible

—Experiment has shown that there is
no great difference in cost of growing
silage and growing roots. It has also
been shown that roots are fully as .
if not better, than silage for milk produc-
tion. If you think you cannot afford to
put up a silo, or if the herd is too small
to justify the expense, by all means grow

An Authority.
Peter McArthur was once talking
with a friend when he quoted another
man as a financial authority. - His
friend disputed the right of the per-
son quoted to be considered an expert.
Mr. McArthur insisted that the man
had a right to speak like an oracle.
“What is your definition of an au-
thority 7* asked his friend.
“My idea of an authority.” retorted
Mr. McArthur. “is a person who bluffs
beyond my limit.”
