Gold Nuggets in the Street.
“The streets of some of the mining
towns of California are paved with
gold,” said U. P. Koenig. “Yes, I
mean just what I say. A great deal
of the rock that is taken out of the
mines contains such a small percent-
age of gold that fit would not be
profitable to take it out, so when a
street needs paving this rock is crush-
ed, and, being exceedingly hard,
makes the finest sort of a pavement.
After a rain one can see any number
of people in the streets picking up
pieces of gold ore. Some of these
pieces contain $40 worth of gold, but
of course, such valuable nuggets are
rare finds."—Milwaukee Sentinel.

Money in Growing Beef.
Many of the agricultural papers are
urging farmers to raise beef for mar-
ket, claiming that the demand exceeds
the supply. This"may be so to a cer-
tain extent, but there are several oth-
er conditions to be met before this jn-
dustry can be made profitable to farm-
ers generally. As a matter of fact, the
farm and. its adaptability has every-
thing to do with success.” There are
many farms, even in dairying sections
not at all suited to dairying, but emi-
nently fitted to raising cattle for beef,
and with such a farm and a proper
knowledge of the work the results
would probably be successful. The
question is but one of many which
should be decided entirely on local con-
ditions and by each man for himself.
It is folly to generalize on some things,
and this is one of them.
Look Out For This.
In several sections of the country
agents are offering what they claim
to be trees budded on four-year-old
seedlings. If they deliver what they
claim, the trees are likely to be nearly
worthless, declares the Indianapolis
News, for a seedling four years old is
too old to bud and make a good trec.
It could be grafted, of course, but even
then would =ot be superior in any way
to the regulation root-grafted @ trees
generally sold by nurservmen. There
are so; many reliable nurserymen in
the comuntry that it seems ineredible
any oue should be victimized by any
such absurd claims, much less a farm-
er who is more or less familiar with
fruit growing. 3e on the safe side,
and if aa agent comes to you with an
offer of trees grown in some manner
out of the ordinary, refer the offer to
your State experiment station before
closing it. Nine times out of ten you
will find you have saved money by do-

The Bee Colony. ;
It should be as far away from public
highways as possible, and, if{conven-
ient, in a quiet place, sheltered from
high winds, where the bees are not
likely to be interfered with by men
or animals. The hives must be secure-
ly fenced off, if situated on land where
cattle are accustomed to feed. They
should also be not so far away as to
prevent those engaged about the
dwelling house from seeing when
swarms are in he aly. Tf the
hives can be so placed as to afford a
free bee flight toward the open coun-
try, while the beekeeper has room to
work at the side or in rear of them
without interfering with the flight of
the bees, it is mutually advantageous
to them and to the beekeeper.
One of the most reliable arguments
in favor of combining agriculture with
small farming lies in the facet that the
beekeeper can time his work so as not
to interfere unduly with the attention
needed for harvesting his ordinary ag-
ricultural produce. Moreover, much
valuable help can be rendered by a
farmer’s wife who is so disposed, and
many instances are recorded in which
women make most successful Dbee-
keepers.—Massachusetts Ploughman.
One Farmer’s Method.
One of the best farmers wé ever
knew kept a slate hanging up in the
barn and on this slate made’ entries
something like these: :
Weak place in the west field fence;
Joe repair it at once.
Take cultivator shovels to shop next
time buggy goes.
Repair Jack’s harness and Bob's bri-
dle first wet day. *
Frank, see Smith and tell him to
bring log chain home.
Two sows due to farrow
keep sharp lookout.
Bunch of red sorrel in south field
near shade; for self.
Wood pile must be
some first chance. .
When any job like the one: noted
was done, the rule was to erase the
memorandum about it, and the man
who kept the slate told us that there
was always a friendly rivalry between
himself, his son and the hired man in
May 16.
watched; haul
The rule was to scan the slate when:
ever any one came to the barn, and
if he was calle away and there was
some work of his own to be done, in-
stead of telling his wife. “to tell the
boy,” a simple entry was made cover-
ing the work to be done and all went
“well,
‘Forcing Fowls to Moult.
Many poultrymen have tried the so-
called Van Dresser plan of forcing
fowls to moult early and have met
with varying degrees of success. ‘The
plan consists of placing the fowls in
a run of rather limited dimensions and
giving them as little food as possible.
and yet sustaining life for two weeks.
the way of keeping the slate ‘clean.
The writer tried the plan for the sec-
ond season last year and with satis-
factory results in the case of Leghorns,
but only fair results with Plymouth
Rocks. The plan of feeding was to
scatter in the runs some small grain
like wheat, mixing it with a small
quantity of oil meal. The quantity
was sufficient to give each fowl about
the equivalent of a teaspoonful of
grain, provided she got her share.
At the end of two weeks the hens
were again fed liberally and on the
usual variety of rations. The experi-
ment was made in August and in four
weeks most of the Leghorns had their
new stock of feathers and were be-
ginning to lay. The Plymouth Rocks
dragged along for from six to ten
weeks before all of them were laying
again. There is enough in the plan. to
warrant trying it, and if the results
obtained with the Leghorns could be
generally brought about it would give
poultrymen eggs much earlier in the
fall than now. .
Good Milking.
Tests at the Storr’s Experiment Sia-
tion show conclusively that the amount
of milk given by the cows and the
purity of the product both depend
greatly upon the method adopted by
the milker. One young man, who said
he could milk, was given charge of the
milking of six cows. At the end of
a week the quantity given showed a
shrinkage of twelve per cent. In an-
other experiment, in which five boys,
previously taught as to proper meth-
ods, were tested as milkers, four in-
creased the flow seven, ten and five
per cent., respectively. The following
instructions in regard to milking are
in use at the station.
The milker should milk regularly,
thoroughly and quietly. He should
wear clean clothes, wash his hands
before beginning to milk, and never
wet them while milking. The cow
should be brushed before being milked,
and her flank and udder wiped with a
damp cloth in -order to minimize, as
far as possible, the number of bacteria
floating about in. the wvieinity of the
pajl, and likely to get into the milk.
To the same end the foremilk should
be rejected, and the milking done into
covered’ pails, with strainers arranged
for the milk to pass through. Reject-
ing the first few spurts of milk from
the teat removes the milk ‘containing
objectionable germs. The cleaner the
milking is done, the fewer the germs.—
American Cultivator.

. Care of the Horse.
Our farm horses should have the
very best of care that the farmer can
give them. “They are faithful animals
and deserve to be kept right. They
should have plenty of good hay, corn,
oats, bran, etc., the year around. We
should strive to give them a variety of
food, as they like it better and will
thrive better upon it. In beginning
the spring work do not work the team
too much at the start. Their muscles
are soft und will blister easily, for
they have been idle much of the time
during the winter. Go a trifle slow at
the start, and then, after getting used
to it gradually, the farmer will have
a team with tough, hard shoulders,
capable of standing the heavy work of
the entire season. The team should be
thoroughly brushed and cleaned every
day. 'This will help in keeping them
in the proper condition. Give them a
good dry stable in the winter and do
not be afraid of turning them out at
night during the summer when the
pasture is good.
Our Grivin_: horses should be treated
with the same consideration as the
work team. Give him good care and
do not overwork him by driving him
too fast. Be kind to all the animals,
and quiet when working with them.
Make their duties as light as possible,
never requiring them to do more than
their strength will admit. Horses well
cared for and treated in a humane
manner will prove themselves the best
servants a man can have about the
farm.—Cor. Farmers’ Guide,
Carry Life to the Soil.
A recent observation of importance
to the agriculturist would seem to in-
dicate that the enrichment of soil
which is observed in forest-covered
lands is not altogether due to a con-
servation of the moisture and the ad-
dition to the soil of needed elements
by the decomposition of ike fallen
leaves. Of probable greater import-
ance is the fixation of atmospheric ni-
trogen by dead forest leaves when
these rest on a moist substratum of
soil. In effect this phenomenon is sim-
ilar to that which is produced by the
tubercle growths on the roots of the
legumes and allied plant families. '
A similar observation has been made
in regard to the mountain pine, which,
if verified, will account for the hardi-
ness of this tree and the ease with
which it maintains itself in soils ‘that
contain comparatively few nutrients.
It has been found by the Danish
Heather Improvement Society, svhich
is interested in planting trees on bar
ren sandy stretches on the western
coast of Jutland, that spruce and
mountain’ pine, when planted togeth-
er in pairs, mutually help each other
to thrive, the valuable nitrogen-fixing
functions of the pine serving to pro-
vide nourishment for both trees. Ii
has been repeatedly observed that
where such trees are planted in prox
imity on barren lands, if the pine is
cut down while the spruce is still
young, the latter will die, or else make
a sickly growth. On the contrary, cu
riously enough, if the pine is not cut
down until after the spruce gets 3
good start, the latter will make better
lowed to live.—Indianapolis News.

A ‘local study of rural depopulation
near Paris has been made by Dr. A,

include sanitary ignorance leading to
high infant mortality, migration of
young people to towns, effects of con-

gested remegdy—one that promises suc-
cess in Belgium—is improved primary

efforts to cultivate a love for farm life.

“SENSATION” IN VILLA ART
Wonderful Effect Gained by a Caged
Mountain Torrent.
Just across the’ lake, in the deep
shade of the wooded cliffs beneath the
Pizzo di Torno, lies another villa still
more steeped in the Italian garden
magic. This is the Villa Pliniana,
built in 1570 by the Count Anguissola.
of Piacenza, and now the property of
the Trotti family, of Milan, The place
takes its name from an intermittent
spring in the court, which is supposed
to be the one described by Pliny in one
of his letters, and it is further cele:
brated as being the coolest villa on
Como. It lies on a small bay on the
east side of the lake, and faces due
north, so that, while the villas of Cer-
nobbio are bathed in suniight a deep
green shade envelops it. The house
stands on a narrow ledge, its founda-
tions projecting into the lake, and its
back built against the almost vertical
wooded cliff which protects it from the
southern sun. Down this cliff pours
a foaming mountain torrent from the
Val di Calore, just beneath the peak of
Torno, and this torrent the architect of
the Viila Pliniana has captured in its
descent to the lake and carried through
the central apartment of the villa.
The effect preduced is unlike any-
thing clse, even in the wonderland of
Italian gardens. The two wings of the
house, a plain and somewhat melan-
choly looking structure, are joined by
an open arcaded room, against the
back wall of which the torrent pours
down, over stcae work tremulous with
moss and ferns, gusliing out again be-
ncath the balustrade of the loggia,
where it makes a great semicircle of
rlittering whiteness in the dark green
~vaters of the lake. The old house is
aterated with the freshness and
Irerched with the flying spray of the
‘aged torrent. The bare vaulted rooms
‘everberate with it, the stone floors
we greca with its Gampness, the air
juivers’ with its cool ivcessant rush.
The contrast of this dusky dripping
oggia, on its perpetualiy shaded bay,
wvita the blazing, blue waters of the
{ake and’ their sun-steeped western
shores, iS ‘one of the most wonderful
that the Itaiian
eficets in sensation
villa art has ever devised.
The architeet, not satisiied with di-
verting a part of the terrent to cool
bis Louse, has led the rest in a fall
cowa the cliff immediately adjoining
the willa, and has designed winding
paths through the woods from which
cine may look Cown on the bright rush
of the waters.. Oa the other side of the
house lics a lorg balusiraded terrace,
between the lake and the hanging
weeds. and here, on: the only bit of
cpen and level ground near ‘the hose;
are the old formal gardens, now much
neglected, but still full of .a melan-
choly charm.—From Edith Wharton's

I felt so weak and @izzy at times I could not pursue my studies with

backaches and sinking spells, also pains in the back and lower limbs.
I was siek all over... * ue ?
“Finally, after many other remedies had been tried, we were ad-
vised to get Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and I am
leased to say that after taking it only two weeks, a wonderful change
or the better took place, and in a short time I was in perfect health.

ought to know how much good your medicine will do: them. I did dress-

Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, I do not believe I could have stood
the strain. There is no other work that is such a strain on the system. Oh,
how my back used to ache from the bending over! I would feel as though
I would have to scream out from the pain, and the sitting still made me so
terribly tired and weak, and my head throbbed like an engine. I never could
eat after work, I was so worn out. Then I was irregular, and had such
frightful cramps every month they would simply double me up with pain. and
