State Agricultural Notes.
Is the machinery ready for spring
work ? If not, better look it over now. |
Less than five per cent. of the cattle in
the United States are pure bred. ih
York ranks first among the counties
in Pennsylvania in the number of can-
neries,
It is estimated that about 98 per cent.
of the onions grown for commercial pur-
poses in the United States are grown
from seed. wea
Never so much plowing done duting
the month of March as this year;
neither were the roads in such good con-
dition, is the word that comes, from In-
diana county,
The consensus of opinion this year is
that there is plenty of good seed corn,
However, the wise farmer will not take
it for granted but will test his seed to
make doubly sure. All who have an ex-
tra supply of good seed should take pains
to save it against possible future need.
No man knows what Jack Frost and
other elements may do to the crop this
year and good seed properly taken care
of will suffer no deterioration within the
next twelve months,

to his death from influenza several
months ago, was purchased by Mrs.
Emma Steele, of Mechanicsburg, for
her nephew, H, C, Thomas, who will

Philipsburg Has Costly Fire.
Philipsburg was the scene of another
costly fire which was discovered shortly |
before five o'clock Thursday morning in
the Grant block, corner Front and Pres-
queisle streets, and which, before the
flames were controlled, virtually gutted
the second and third stories, and spread
to the Dunwiddie residence, which was
also badly burned and contents damaged
by both fire and water,
Tenants on the second floor, where the
fire originated, were: Dr, F. K. White,
dentist, whose equipment, valued at
$4,000, was destroyed, insurance, $1200 ;
Bell Telephone Company, $10,000 loss;
Huntingdon & Clearfield Company, $6,
000 ; the Misses Adams furniture and
personal property, complete loss, insur-
ance, $1,000,
The third story was occupied as a
lodge room by the two Masonic organ-¥
izations. All their property, valued at
$6,000 was destroyed. They carried
$3 450 insurance. The Moshannon chap-
ter of the Red Cross rented a room from
the Masons, where it had headquarters
and a work room, The Red Cross care
ried no insurance, and among the losses
were eight sewing machines, soo pounds
of yarn, 50 sweaters, 100 suits pajamas,
115 kiddy dresses, petticoats, 03
skirts, 60 camelshair convalescent robes,
75,000 yards of sewing cotton,
and buttons,
Most or probably all of the damage on
the first floor was from water. Trout:
man’s drug store was deluged. His loss
is nearly complete. Ibberson’s carried a
stock valued at between and
$18,000 in millinery and ladies’ furnish-
ings, and had $6,000 insurance. Most
of the stock in this store hopelessly
ruined, A. W. Marks’
suffered from the water, He carried
big stock and it was likely much
aged. His insurance was $6,000,

came from Europe, accompanied by ar

reason, had it caged and secreted from
public view. The trial trip was made
by moonlight, in the presence of a few
interested persons, and it is not de

to set the Kitten—for such was the
nickname applied to this ploneer loco
