A FARM GATE.
A Popular Style of C«n»truetio«.
Strong;, Simple and Eaally Made.
The style of gate bere shown has
been In use for fifty years in Orange
county, N. Y., according to an Ameri
can Agriculturist correspondent, who
says: As a farmer's gate I have never
seen It surpassed. Its chief merits are
that It Is simple of construction and

strong. The end pieces are of 4 by 5
inch oak. The rails and brace arc of
six Inch hemlock or any other size you
may choose, the rails notched in the
headpieces. The stiffening piece in the
center Is placed on the opposite side
from the brace. The hinges are bolted
to the top and bottom rails of the gate
and hung on hooks.
Nail thoroughly with tenpenny nulla,
and you will have a gate that will last
till the boards rot, which is all any
gate will do. For turning small pigs
nail barbed wire between the lower
rails, and put one on top if you choose.
Any farmer will construct one of tbeso
gates In from three to four hours. The
rails can be mortised in the end pieces
it preferred, but the average farmer is
not equal to this work, and the cost of
a carpenter will be more than the cost
of the lumber.
THE HAND SEPARATOR.
ft Given Cream That Ii» Wortli Money
Iu Any Bliurket.
To the isolated dairyman the separa
tor is a boon. I speak from experience.
For two years and a half one has been
in use on our farm. The skim milk is
fed sweet and pure while warm to
calves and pigs, and they grow faster
and better by far than they ever did
on the stuff that came back from the
creamery watered and rehashed full of
antagonizing germs from every quarter
of the creamery rounds. It may be pos
sible to get returned creamery skim
milk in good condition, but when com
pared with the sweet milk fresh from
the fount of supply don't let us talk
about it the same day because it be
longs to a different kingdom of food
supply.
When the first buzz of the revolving
bowl sounds outside the milkrooin door
the hungry calves begin their call for
food and keep It up till they get their
supply. With the centrifugal separator
began the golden age of dairy work,
and it promises to spread its blessings
as the years roll by.
It is natural that with the expendi
ture of SIOO for a complication of ma
chinery that will swiftly separate the
cream from the milk the owner is go
ing to have other things better than he
ever had them before. His stable will
be lighter and cleaner and his cows
bettor fed and groomed. Every feature
of the work will bear a neater and
purer aspect. His very step and appear
ance indicate that he is the owner of a
hand separator. That means he Is
making cream that's worth the money
In any market. The consumer wants it,
the ice cream maker knows it is good,
and, bless you, the creamery man
wants every pound he can get of it.
For a time the creamery man looked
upon It rntlier ns nn interloper and a
stranger to the best interests of a well
regulated plant, but he has found that
cream separated at the farm Is at least
as pure and clean and makes as good
butter as when brought to the cream
ery in milk once a day or likely three
times a week.
I do not put myself forward as au
thority upon this subject. Our cream
docs not go regularly to a creamery,
only as a surplus product after supply
ing a city ice cream plant. The cream
as it comes from the separator in sum
mer is cooled at ouce in our creamer for
several hours with spring water, then
placed in the icebox and chilled with
ice water and held for shipment.
Sometljnes we hold cream for days,
maybe it turns acid and must be dis
posed of either by churning or go to the
factory. The latter usually gets the
supply and will in the future. For two
and a half years this occasional surplus
has been always -welcomed at the fac
tors' and has always had age on it with
such care as we speak of. The fresher
cream Is at all times sent to the ice
cream man.—Ohio Farmer,
New England Tobacco.
Tobacco bas been backward in New
England in some sections owing to the
late season, and cutworms are reported
troublesome. According to the crop re
port, the reduction from last year's
acreage will be slight in New Hamp
shire and Vermont. In Franklin and
Hampden counties, Mass., the acreage
will be Qbout the same as last year,
while in Hampshire county it will
be somewhat less. More Connecticut
broad leaf is being planted tbqn for
several years, and in Hampshire coun
ty alone the increase In the area de
roted to this type is estimated at
1,000 acres more than was planted last
year. From Connecticut reports Indi
cate that the acreagu will be reduced
10 per ccut or more. Tli« aarpage in
shade grown tobacco is notably small
er, the decrease in many cases being
Stated at 50 per cent or more. There
will be more broad leaf planted than
for several years past.
" g'Gain farming
Increase and Concentrejion Ct , ' le
Out Crop In the F.a«i,
In the oat crop of Now York and
Pennsylvania we have au;;tl:er Ulcera
tion of the ability of :.e older tales
to maintain their grain production not
withstanding west&rjj competition and
the immense increase of boui*»
tion, with the consequent v."itlu.j ,
of farm lands for gardening. ! ".it
growing, residence and oris. :;u'at.il
uses. At only one census lias ii;i* com
bined crop of these two s titles f:;*:«\! to
show r.t) Increase over that r.t tlie pre
ceding census iWJt.eiv. in ! 8J ::s com
pared with 1870 —Kiwi <;;t" census of 1880
has been subjected to perliatM j <•; much
criticism as any other. In spite of this
slight temporary decrease the oat fig
ures from these two states h'io.v such
it stability and gradual increase that If
taken by themselves no otto would sus
pect that outsi&u production had intlu
eneed them. Their combined produc
tion for six census years in round num
bers is as follows: In 1850, 45.1 million
bushels; 1800, 02.0; 1870, 71.7; 1880,
71.4; IS9O, 75.1, and in 1900, 78.0 mil
lion bushels. These figures are in mark
ed contrast with those for barley and
Jn themselves quite similar to those for
buckwheat, especially as showing an
actual iutruase in New York and Penn
sylvania lu ttie (afip of a general east
ern decline, another issuance of the
tendency to concentration so Hjqfked
jn our recent agricultural history.
It Is not probable that we have any
where nearly reached tlia limit of west
ern surplus production, but wo have
probably passed the stage of most op.
pressively low western prices. The con
dition of the American meat market
precludes the idea that we shall, see a
permanent material cheupenin of a
staple feixKng in the Atlaatlc
coast markets except lu sympathy
with a general decline In prices. It
seems fair to assume therefore that
while the eastern barley croj> has final
ly broken down under pressure from
the v st :;ui! while in buck whent e t
ern supremacy is more pronounced
than ever before the oat crop contin
ues comparatively stable, and farmers
are gradually growing larger crops with
a reasonable prospect of continuing to
do so.
This increasing production and con- i
centratlon in eastern states is the more
remarkable in the light of the rise of
the national yield per capita. Fifty ,
years ago the country had 0.32 bushels :
"and in 1000 12.40 bushels per capita.
The per capita increase of oats is prac
tically the same as that of wheat and
far larger than that of corn, which Is
further proof of the heavy proportion
which must have been put on the mar
ket, and in the light of these facts It
would seem that no eastern man who
has found it to his advantage to raise
oats up to the present nee 1 have any
fear as to the future of this particular
part of his farming, for this surplus
from the newer states will not now in
crease faster than the growth of the
cities will absorb it.—Country Gentle

POTATO BLIGHT.
Timelineiia an Important k.h Thor
ouclincKti In Spraylns.
By Messrs. JOXES and MORSE. Ver
mont Experiment Station.
Experimental sprayings of potatoes
with fungicides and other coi.ip ua
have been conducted at the Vc.r.i
station each summer for fo lrleen
years. During this time a lart'e num
ber of preparations have been tested,
and nothing equal to bordeaux arsenic
al mixture has been found for use in
the latter part of the season. The
gains from the right use of this mix
ture have been large on the average
and are chiefly attributable to the pro
longation of the life of the foliage into
the autumn -through protecting il from
both fungus and insect ravages. In
general two applications of the mix
ture have proved most profitable.
Owing, however, to the late sjpp trair e
of the blight in 1003 and the fact that
its development was checked by con
tinuous dry weather in early Septem
ber a single application of the mixture
about the 10th of August proved suffl
cient for the preservation of most of
the foliage from blight. On heavy soil
there was some rot where the plants
were sprayed only once, but the crop
in the main field of the station farm,
which was a sandy loam three and
one-half acres in extent, thus sprayed
once retained its foliage in gooJ shape
well through September and yielded
over 1,200 bushels of marketable po
tatoes with practically no rot. The
plots were dug Sept. 24. The unspray
ed tops had been dead for some weeks,
while at least 50 per cent of the foliage
was still alive on the sprayed tops.
The gain per acre of potatoes was not
as large as it has been in seasons when
the blight came earlier and progressed
more rapidly. On the other hand, un
der such conditions two or even three
sprayings are required to preserve the
foliage until the maturing of the crop.
The gain of 124 bushels per acre as the
result of a single timely spraying rep
resents a larger gain in proportion to
the cost than we have heretofore re
corded. We learned of cases where
potato growers sprayed their plants
twice in July and secured little profit,
for the reason that by the time the
blight was destructive, the latter half
of August, their plants were unpro
tected. Our experience again serves to
emphasize the point that in order to
spray most profitably a man must
know what he is spraying for, watch
his crop and spray Intelligently as well
as thoroughly.
SVlm Milk For rlir*.
At the Arizona experiment station
two pigs weighing SI pounds following
steers and fed 0,000 pounds of skim
milk in addition in 113 days gained 248
pounds and increased ?10.12 in value.
In the form of pork the skim milk waa
worth 2G.8 cents per 100 pounds}.
Jliril Clinructcrliitlc*.
Among all the birds of this country
the hawk and parrot come thp nearest
to using their feet like hands. Wading
birds and scratching birds develop n
very large foot. Birds that are in the
air most of the time have much more
delicate feet than those that are on the
ground frequently. The variety of bills
Is quite as astounding as that of the
claws. The lio<sk on the end of the bill
almost always denotes a bird of prey.
Flat bills denote fly catching birds
kingfishers, herons, etc. The meadow
lark that Is much on the ground has
strong, stout legs, and the oriole, which
Is more in the air, has slender legs.
The stiffened tail Is not confined to
woodpeckers aud chimney swifts, but
the bobolink that clings to the long
grass has also stiffened tall feathers to
help support the bird upright.
Two Superstition*.
"jSpllling the salt" and the 111 omen
that anaiijies to it are traceable to the
last supper of Christ with his apostles,
when it is said that Judas accidentally
overturned the salt. Because of ui«
after doom of the unfortunate traitor
to spill the salt at table Is an accepted
sign of future ill luck \o happen to the
person doing It.
"Thirteen at table" and Its unlucky
significance originated at this event
also. Christ and his twelve apostles
dining together for the last time com
posed the number that has since been
regarded vvith superstitious aversion,
not only In the maitAf .of dining, but
in almost everything else as weji r
