A good sire sO impresses "his characteristics upon his offspring | that they are more like him than like the common herd. —An inch of rain coming down on | a single acre of ground would fill ! more than 600 barrels of 45-gallon | capacity each. This amount of water would weigh more than 110 tons, or "nearly a quarter of a million pounds. — More land in grass and other hay crops and less in row crops would be ' a profitable change on many farms. Many farmers are working their | teams down, wasting their own vitali- ‘ty trying to cultivate too many acres in row crops. — Prune annually, but never heavi- |1ly. Do not cut out large limbs. Nev- | \ Summer pruning induces fruitfulness, while winter pruning, when the trees are wholly dormant, increases the vig- or of the tree. —An excellent liniment for all kinds of swellings on dairy cows, as well as on other farm animals, is made of equal parts of turpentine, | sweet oil and spirits of camphor. Ap- | | ply liberally and frequently to the swollen parts. —This is a good time to make res- olutions as to growing more feed. | One can never be a very successful | animal husbandman unless he raises | feed for his own animals.

These changes occur quite frequent- ly during the winter, so that by spring the clods of earth are broken many ' times, and only a small amount of la- bor is needed to dispose of what clods er leave stubs in cutting off limbs. ! remain. Late plowing is also beneficial in the destruction of insects. sects that have burrowed in the soil to pass the winter and deposit their eggs for hatching a crop of pests for next season are turned to the surface by late plowing and destroyed by the exposure of severe freezing. While it may not kill all insect life it will so reduce their force that they will be in- capable of doing much harm. Heavy clay soils are generally the hardest to prepare for seeding, un- less they are plowed in the fall. The exposure to freezing and thawing that the soil will get permits plowing when somewhat wetter than would be the case in spring. Winter freezes counteract, to a considerable extent, the tendency of the soil to puddle or form clods and become hard. There is not so much benefit deriv- "ed from fall plowing a sandy soil, as i far as the tendency to form clods is concerned, but it will do a lot of good in the destruction of insect life. A Tip in Time. “We have several famous movie stars dining with us this evening,” whispered the waiter. “Would you like to have a seat near their table 7 “No,” replied the sour-faced patron. «I came in here to eat, not to star- gaze, and besides, if I were to over- hear them talking about the salaries they got I'd be so dissatisfied with my ' prospects in life I wouldn’t feel that . seeing to it that no sportsmen may ever molest these birds while on his farm. Insects and weed seeds are ! eaten in large quantities by these birds ! while on his farm, and there is little danger of the flock becoming too nu- merous for that job.

An unfaithful steward had embez- zled a large sum and his employer asked advice as to how he should be | dealt with. Weeds or plants turned under in the | | dry, may cause severe suffering to | | the crops on account of this growth of | weeds lying between the plowed soil "and the subsoil not yet decayed. — Linseed meal is a valuable food ! and may be fed at all seasons. Even ‘when grain is allowed it will pay to feed linseed meal, and when cows are if given a quart or two of linseed meal at night. It is richer in the es- sential elements of growth and pro- | duction than any other concentrated «Get rid of him at once,” advised an Englishman. “Keep him and deduct the sum from his wages,” said a Scotchman. “But,” said the employer, “the sum is far greater than his wages.” «Then raise his wages,” suggested an Irishman.—London Tid-Bits. eee Enough Said.

Proper treatment with creosote or other wood-preserving liquid prolongs the life of exposed lumber and fence posts many years. __It is not too late to plow the land in this section. So long as the ground is not frozen, where the soil is not too easily eroded, or where the crop is not to be seeded until the following spring, greater benefit is derived by fall plowing than in the spring. : The object of plowing in the fall is fine particles as possible so that the tiny rootlets of the growing plants have an opportunity of securing food. jected to frequent changes in temper- ne CASTORIA Boars the signature of Chas.

That morning lameness—those sharp pains when bending or lifting, make work a burden and rest impos- sible. Don’t be handicapped by a bad back—look to your kidneys. You will make no mistake by following this Bellefonte resident’s example. Mrs. J. F. Thal, 23 N. Thomas St., «I suffered with backache and severe pains through my kidneys. had headaches and dizzy spells, when I first got up in the morning and my kidneys acted irregularly. My atten- tion was called to Doan’s Kidney Pills and I procured a box at the Green Pharmacy Co. That one box remov- ed the backache. The headaches and dizzy spells left and my kidneys be- came regular and I felt better in every way.” After four years, Mrs. Thal said: “1 am glad to confirm my former en- dorsement of Doan’s. Today I am , well and to recommend Doan’s isa pleasure.” to divide or break up the soil into as: Price 60c, at all dealers.

The toad must catch his own meals. | He scorns dead food. He must see it move to be sure it has not slipped the bonds of life and begun to spoil. In | a day and a night he captures enough Ito stuff his stomach full four times, | although if he had to he could exist { without eating longer than any other | creature. He eats caterpillars, moths, | weevils, snails, bugs, worms, spiders, | beetles, grasshoppers, crickets, many kinds of winged insects, even wasps, { and innumerable other noxious pests, i and in six months he will put twenty i thousand of them where they can harm no man’s garden. Reckoning on every one of these working a mill’s worth of harm to somebody’s crop, one toad prevents twenty dollars’ worth of injury, and we know that one mill is a low value to set upon such individual damage. In some countries toads sell to gardeners up to $15 a head, and are shielded from prowling scavengers the same as any domestic stock. A toad that adopts you and your garden and makes his home in your dooryard has claim on your protec- tion. His homing instinct is strong, and you may count on his clinging to life—and your premises—at least for a decade unless he is stoned to death, and the chances are he will outlive you, for a generation as we reckon human life, or even forty years, is not beyond the possibilities of a con- tented toad. And he asks no favors, not even shelter when wintry storms sweep the fields bare of the vegeta- tion that affords him provender. He will provide himself with a winter burrow just as easily as he hides un- der a damp stone or mouldy log from the glare of summer days. The old superstition that toads are poisonous has vanished before scientific re- search, just like many another dismal whim possessed by unenlightened minds. They cannot live under wa- ter, although their five-toed hind feet are partly webbed. it’s toasted, course.

Slow transportation robs them of part of their time —time that might just as well be turned into sales. A Ford runabout furnishes quick trans- portation at the lowest possible cost. By equipping your salesmen with Ford cars, you will enable them to devote more energy to selling goods. Beatty Motor Co., BELLEFONTE, PA. Temple Court. | | |= | C. Y.
