A gallon of lard oil aud a pint of kero sene makes an excellent mixture as an oint ment for scurf on hogs. It also destroys lice or other vermin thai may inlest the animal. To have a plentiful supply of early greens next season sow turnip seed now and allow the turnips to grow and remain in the ground during the winter. A slight covering of straw will protect them. At this season the farmer should haul to the lmm or some suitable place a large supply of dry earth to be used during the winter. It is excellent as an absorbent of liquid manures, and largely assists in disin fecting the stalls. Late in the fall, after the grass begins to di« down on the lawn, apply a liberal dressing of ashes and lime to the lawn. On light soil a coating of manure should be spread over tho lawn, to remain during the winter. In spring rake it off. The horse-troughs and bara lofts are no places for the hens. I f hens are allowed to make nests in the stables they not only create filth therein, but also carry lice in with them, as nearly all kinds of fowls are afflicted with lice at this season. As a cheap home made paint for barn roofs make a mixture of red oxide of iron and fish oil. It is not as durable as good paint, but serves well to give a bright col or to old roofs and buildings, and will la t two or three years. It should not cost over 50 cents a gallon. The old horse is safer and better for the use of the younger members of the family than younger ones, but for general farm work a horse should be young and strong. During the summer, wheu the work is very heavy, the horses should be fed three times a day and given two honrs rest at noon. Bran is one of the best foods for cow s that are expected to calve in a month or more. Bran abounds in phosphates, and will largely contribute to the growth of bone of the embryo calf. Many cases of abortion in cows arise from lack of a proper supply of the necessary food elements that sup port the dam and young. In the attempt to keep potatoes, turnips and other root crops the fanner gives too much protection against the cold. The cellars, pits or bins should be constructed in a manner to retain an even temperature if possible. Ileat sometimes does more in jury to such crops than cold. Sweet pota toes should bo kept at a temperature of about 65 degrees. While potatoes and turnips keep best at about 40 degrees. Oxen are serviceable on large farms, and also in those sections where the roads are nearly impassable in winter, as they can travel where a horse cannot venture. They can be bred for the purpose desired by the judicious selection of the best breeds for producing qnick-dranght oxen, the Deven breed being superior to any other. A Devon ox will bear the heat well, travel at a rapid gait and endure fatigue. A cross of the Devon with large native stock also produces excellent oxen, if the male calves are retained for that purpose. The farm is not only the best place to raise turnips and potatoes, but it is also the best place to rear boys. It is a fact that three-fourths of the leading men in all the vocations of life, from merchant princes and railroad presidents down to United States Senators, spent their early youth on the farm. Not that there is any particular virtue in the scent of new mown hay or apple blossoms. The secret of their suc cess lies in this, that in their early youth they acquired habits of industry. What to the average city youth would seem like an intolerable task, is mere sport for the country boy. Prom his earliest youth the farmer boy has been accustomed to labor. He has learned the value of time, and can not contentedly drivil it away. While he occasionally chases a bumble-bee or a but terfly across the perfumed fields, or hies himself from a hornet's nest away after ho has stormed it with stones and the little soldiers sallied forth to defend their works, he does make a business Of such frivolities. Wholesome exercise in the fresh air sends the red blood sweeping through his veins, and gives him a consti tution that laughs at the most arduous toil. Then he is prepared to develop his brain by study, and he goes fourth to battle with life, competent to meet and vanquish all comers. Ho is not afraid of labor. He loves it, and that is the whole secret of his success. The light which comes from the sun ex erts its chemical powers without regard to glass barriers. This accounts for the spoiling of canned Iruits, and especially to matoes. put up in glass jats. As a remedy an exchange says.- Wrap each jar in dark blue paper and then put the jars away in a dark place. This is a good practice when you want to keep anything from spoiling from action of the light. NL'MBKK OP Klitis IS A HEX.
