Honent JoarnalUm'8 Influence.
That a clean, honest newspaper exerts
an influence far wider and more
forceful than would the individual
opinions of the editor if set forth in
any other form cannot be denied, says
the Houston Chronicle. The public
treats its utterances as purely impersonal.
mid involuntarily and in a large
measure unconsciously differentiates
the editorial from tlie individual who
writes it, even if, which is rarely tbe
case, the writer be known. Tbe influence
of any newspaper, so far as
its editorial columns are concerned, depends
absolutely upon the fairness,
justness and honesty of its treatment
of men and measures. A newspaper
may possess every material, mechanical
and financial equipment and have
an extensive circulation, but unless
the public believes its editorial columns
are not for sale, and that they contain
nothing that does not reflect tbe honest
convictions of its editorial management,
fearlessly and fairly expressed,
It will have no influence on the public
mind.

The Dust Bath.
Don't neglect the dust bath even in
the fall time. In the summer time
"when everything is dry the fowls "will
find a dust bath for themselves, but
in fall time when showers are frequent,
dust out doors may be scarce. Have
some corner In the lien house where
j dust may always be found, and see
! to it that It be frequently renewed.
! If a little lime (not too much), or ashes,
j wood or coal, be added to the dust
bath, it will be all the better.
Clean Up.
Keep the poultry house clean now;
the entire season's success nKvylepend
upon it. Cleau out the droppings,
whitewash the walls and perches, and
sprinkle lime over the floor. This
should be done several times during
the season, and as the sultry nights
I come, look well to the ventilation. Kill
, the mites, clean the house, give good
, ventilation, and permit the fowls to
: live at home in comfort and health,
both winter and summer. That is the
better plan.
ITnrnlpg For Poultry.
The turnip is not rich in the elements
necessary for the purpose of supplying
; the hens, but it promotes thrift and
I egg production by affording a change
from the dry food. A mess of cooked
turnips, to which ground grain Is
added, will prove more beneficial than
either turnips or grain alone. For this
reason the turnip can be used profiti
ably for all classes of poultry, and the
' crop will save grain and increase the
profits. All who make a specialty of
i keeping a large number of fowls should
: grow turnips. Geese and ducks will
eat them raw if they are chopped fine.
Mineral* For Pice.
A hog grower who is a great believer
| In alfalfa for pigs says that it is an excellent
feed, but it will not supply all
the mineral matter necessary for good
: bone development. They should have
, all the charcoal and corncob ashes
! and coal they will eat in addition to
j alfalfa. Experiments show that pigs
fed on charcoal in addition to alfalfa
I made much more rapid gains than
those without charcoal. It is not necessary
to feed anything else besides
alfalfa to most other young growing

Sheep Notes.
Clover aftermath Is the oest pasture
| for lambs that have been weaned.
The sheep of whatever breed, whether
we will it or not, is a general pur!
pose animal.
No one breed of sheep will succeed in
all soils and all situations.
j Of all methods of improving the soil
and destroying weeds sheep are the
I best.
Mutton of good quality usually sells
\ at a higher price than beef, and yet it
is produced at considerably less cost.
Only the very best animals which
are true to their specific varieties of
! breeds and full of promise should be
i selected for breeding purposes.
| If there are any unthrifty sheep in
i the flock, separate them from the
1 others, give them a little extra care,
| and if possible fatten and market.?
! Indiana Farmer.
The Comb and Disease*
I By watching the appearance of the
J comb the health of the fowl may be
I easily noticed when the comb looks
j white, pale, or black something is
: wrong. Great thirst is another sign,
i and a nervous, restless disposition also
; gives warning. Sometimes a hen will
j go moping about with drooping wings
; but with no other signs of sickness.
I When a comb, however, does not show
I g bright scarlet in color, and the fowls
| are not lively, they should be at once
i examined. There is no particular color
! for any disease that is indicated by the
comb. The pale or black depends upon
1 the stage of the disease. Very often
; the comb will be pale and then turn
black, but the poultryman may depend
| upon liis fowls being in good health
. when the combs are a bright scarlet,
I especially during the laying season, ns
the first sign a pullet gives of beginj
ning to lay is the scarlet color of the
I comb.
Corn Fodder.
Corn is the greatest of all fattening
: feeds for live stock, but, as is well
known, it will make a badly balanced
ration, being deficient in portein, and
consequently not suited as a sole ration
for growing auimals.
It has long been known that different
samples of corn vary much in
i chemical composition, the softer and
more starchy having a lower protein
: content than the flinty varieties, as it
is the germ and horny-appearing portions
and bran that contain the protein.
Scientific plant-breeders have
been busy for several years with attempts
to develop breeds of corn that
will come nearer yielding a well-balanced
feed. At it is we must balance
the corn ration with some food having
j a much higher protein content, and .
j containing less of carbohydrates and
I fat. These efforts have measurably
j succeeded , but not perfectly. Tlie exi
periment stations are working on this
I problem with every prospect of ulti|
mate success.
Pilling tlie Silo.
A silo may be filled quickly or slowly,
! as circumstances permit, with equally
i good results. It may be filled in one
j day and be all right. In that case, the
j silage will settle n great deal in a few
I days, and if the silo Is to be anywhere
j near full, more must he put in, filling
it to the very top.
If the s!!o is filled slowly, taking several
days to complete the job, it will
settle as the work progresses and be
nil right, provided that there is not a
stop in the filling of more than one or
i two days at a time. If there is, the
silnge will begin 1o mould on the top,
i and that injures it. The stage of ma|
turity at which it is best to put it in
i the sil? is when the corn contains the
[ most feeding value, taking the whole
i plant?stalks, leaves and ears. At
J that time the corn is beginning to
? glaze, if it is Flint corn, or dent, if
! it is Dent corn: the lower leaves are
' beginning to turn yellow or while, and
J on some of the very earliest ears the
! ariW |;
husks are turning white. If the corn \
is more immature than this, the silage j *
will be quite sour, will lack the nutri- j *
ment it will have at a later stage, and j 1
not be as valuable feed. If the corn I '
is too ripe and dry, it will heat up very j 1
hot, will mould and be damaged. j 1
In case the Ailing cannot be done un- ]
til the corn is too ripe and dry, this *
can be remedied to a great extent by 1
having it so arranged that the water 1
can be sprayed on to it as it goes up 1
the carrier when filling the silo, enough (
to supply the needed moisture.
Various ways have been tried of cov- i 1
ering the silage after the silo was filled I (
to prevent the spoiling of the silage on j 1
top, but it has been found that nothing ' *
is better or less expensive than to put I *
on water enough to thoroughly wet the 1
top of the silage and have enough so : 1
that it will run down between the sil- j (
age and the sides of the silo.
Many avoid all loss from damage on j 9
top by beginning to feed immediately j f
after filling, thus giving it no time to j 1
damage. The feeding should always ] A
be done from the top, taking about two j s
inches from the entire top each day. J *
If the feeding Is done too slowly and ] *
part of the surface is left exposed to j J
tbe air for two or three or more dnys, I
then the stock will have partially dam- ! *
aged silage all the time. ; *
The feeding of silage very materially i
reduces the cost of producing dairy j s
products, because fewer acres of land ^
are required to keep a given number *
of cows, less work and expense are
needed to prepare cows fo: feeding, j '
and last, but by no means least, cows j
can be made to produce much more ; c
during the year by having them fresh 1
in the fall and feeding silage in the ;
winter.?C. P. Goodrich, in the Amer-! J

The Wismer apple, or, as it is better j ?
known, Wismer's Dessert, is pro- j (
nounced by experts one of the best, if j 1

ing smooth skinned and most brilliant- i
ly colored. It is juicy, rich in flavor j
and free from fiber. In season it be- |

Home Mlxlu,; of Fertilizer**. j,
Mixing fertilizers at home is not generally
practiced by farmers, although ^
ouite a savinc in cost can often be ,
made by doing so, says a writer in Xew j ^
England Homestead. The advantages v
of factory mixed goods appeal strongly ^
to the average farmer. Suth fertilizers
are carried in stock by local dealers %
and can be obtained without delay. s
They are generaJly sold on crop time ~
credit, the grade is as guaranteed, and
they are ready to use at once. c
In mixing fertilizers at home these n
advantages are reversed. Chemicals
are rarely kept by local dealers, and
to buy to the best advantage the far- n
mer must deal direct with the manu- j.
facturer, which requires a trip to the I ^
city, or correspondence. The terms i
are cash with the order, buyer paying | j.
freight. Then, too, many chemicals ;
are so caked ia. the bags that it is im- I
possible to mix them until much hand : j,
labor has been expended in pulveriz- j *
ing. Few farmers have facilities for J
weighing, and unless exact quantities i ^
are used the grade is uncertain. j t
In some cases a single chemical, lite ; ,
nitrate of soda, can be used to advantage
and no mixing is required. This
method of reinforcing stable * manure
with a single chemical has much to ?
comm?nd it. j,
The final task of compounding a fer- t,
tilizer of a definite grade is very sinv c
pit*. jl\j ujutvt? a. uucaiii& xeiuiizer f
containing 4 per cent, ammonia, 8 j
per cent, available phosphoric acid and s
8 per cent, potash, it is necessary to t
supply, in every 2000 pounds,' 80 a
pounds ammonia, 100 pounds available) E
phosphoric acid and 100 pounds potash. ?
The potash is easily calculated, as the ^
muriate (the salt generally used) c-ou- ^
tains 50 per cent, potash, and to supply r
ICO pounds of potash requires 820 g
pounds of muriate. Acid phosphate ^
(dissolved rock phosphate) contains 14
per cent, available phosphoric acid,- ^
and to provide 1(50 pounds of the lat- g
ter about 1143 pounds acid and plios- a
phate is needed. e
The ammonia supply is the delicate 0
feature, for the various compounds I q
act with different degrees of rapidity, r
Foe a trucking fertilizer like the ex- ^
ample above, a large quantity of t
soluble salts (nitrate of soila and sul- g
phate of ammonia) may be used to ad- q
vantage. Fertilizers that contain much _
ammonia or potash aVe always expensive,
and when a high percentage of
both ammonia and potash is given, the
cost increases corresnondinirlv. S
Tiie low grade fertilizers, containing j.
2 per cent, ammonia, 8 per cent, avail- s
able phosphoric acid and 2 per cent, u
potash, are very cheaply made. They v
are easier to mix at home and make <j
the greatest saving in cost. Every j
farmer must decide for himself if it a
is expedient to attempt home mixing.
The important considerations are the ](
quantity to he used, and whether it is "
more convenient to pay cash or buy on a
time.

A STORV Of- SUPPOSE.
low n Clever Thief Wan Foiled, Bnt Won
Out In the End.
"The queerest thing that ever liap)cned
to mo," said the hotel clerk,
'came oft when I was on the night
iesk of a small hotel in a Connecticut j
own. It was a second-rate establish- |
nent, frequented mostly by drummers, |
md the situation was rather lonely at ;
light. There were stores all about, j
ind they closed early, so that after
10 o'clock ours was the only place on

i revolver in the money drawer. One
light about about 11.30 o'clock a pleasmt-spoken,
well-dressed young fellow
lame In and asked for a room. We
alked for a few minutes; then I told
lim as tactfully as I could that as he
lidn't have any baggage he would
lave to pfiy in advance. 'All right,'
le said, 'take it out of that.' He
landed me a ?10 bill. I pulled out the
uoney drawer to change it. There was
ny revolver in plain sight, and another
>ne with it. The second gun had been
eft in his room by a departing guest,
md I'd tucked it into the drawer with
nine for want of a better place to put
t. 'What do you want with two revolvers
?' asked the stranger. 'Oh,'
laid I. loshins. 'suppose some one
ihoiild come In and iind me -with the j
ill out and get one gun and start to j
told me up. I'd liave another handy.' |
My God! What's that?' yelled the
tranger, and pointed to the window*,
t's an old trick, but it caught me.
Vhen I looked b.ick there was the
tranger standing with the extra re olver,
which he'd reached over and
jot out of the till. 'Suppose,' said he,
that I should grab a revolver while j
ou weren't looking and cover you?as |
'in doing now?and toll you to hand j
?ver the till, and that if you made a |
novo to get your gun I'll scatter your j
trains all over the place?where would j
-our extra revolver be then? Hey?' j
And suppose,' said I truthfully, 'that j
told you the gun you are holding on
oe hasn't been loaded for a month |
iml has a broken firing pin.' And j
vliile that was beincr telegraphed I
hrough his brain I snatched my own |
;un and covered him. 'It would show |
luick wit on your part,' he said, and i
le laid down the unloaded revolver, j
And now, if you will give me my i
hange, I guess I'll quit the game of I
uppose, and go to bed.' Well, I'll |
eave it to you if that wasn't enough j
o puzzle any man. Had he tried to
told me up, or was it just a fool game
f his? Somehow I couldn't just make
ip my mind. So I gave him his change
,nd let him go to his room and I figired
on it all night without getting
ny nearer a conclusion. But next
Qorning things happened which cleared i
he matter up. Al>out 11 o'clock the I
nambermaid reported that she j
ouldn't get any answer from the room i
o which I had assigned the stranger. |
'hey unlocked the door. His bed I
ladn't been touched. There was an i

tall. Furthermore the boss asked me j
o explain how I'd happened to turn

Baltinc Powder and Soda.
We are told not to combine baking
powder and soda in the same food.!
In fact the combination often proves'
most satisfactory.
Baking powder biscuits are as much;
Improved by wetting them with buttermilk
sweetened by soda as can be'
Imagined.
One great mistake made by very,
many Is in using too much soda. Very
little is needed. A very scant even
teaspoonful will sweeten a pint of
very sour milk or buttermilk. Someone
says pertinently, "Be sure you have
not enough soda and you will have it
|ust right."
A good rule for baking powder biscuits
is a quart of flour sifted well?if
sifted two or three times it is better.
Into the flour incorporate two heaping
teaspoonfuls of baking powder, a tea
? *.*11 ooIf o vorv ennnf
spoon even iuu uj. ?ul, .1 .
teaspoon of soda, not even full. Mix 1
Into the flour, etc., a very large tablospoonful
of lard, and wet up with two |
cupfuls of sour milk or buttermilk. If |
the measuring has been correct the
milk will make the dough very soft?
bo soft it will seem impossible to
handle it. By dredging the bread'
board well with flour and sprinkling
a little on top of the paste it can be
rolled out into a sheet not more than
half an inch in thickness, cut with
small cutter, put in pans so they do not i
touch and bake in very hot oven. Five j
minutes will bake thein. If liked !
larger and thicker, more time must be !
allowed, but oven must be hot for j
good biscuits.
Doughnuts are much better made
with sour milk or cream and soda with
baking powder. Sour cream cake?in
fact nearly everything In which these
things art? used where tenderness
rather than flakiness is desired will be
found improved by their combination.
