Heavy Lambs the Best. i
The Missouri station found that the
\ - heaviest lambs at birth were from
the heaviest ewes, and that these
heaviest ewes at birth gained faster
in weight than those of lighter weight
at birth.
Butter on the Farm.
* At one of the Iowa Institutes a
" speaker in the course of his remarks
sai<^ that "the best churn to use is
a revolving barrel or box churn; the
butter should not be churned together
in a lump, stop churning when the
butter is in granular form about the
size of wheat kernels and the buttermilk
should then be drawn off, then
pure, cold water must be poured on
the butter and the churn turned forward
and backward a few times and
the water drawn off and fresh water
is clear of buttermilk; usually water
put on three or four times is sufficient.
Now, the butter is ready for
the salt. About one ana one-aau
ounces of dairy salt to a pound of
butter, must be well mixed with the
butter but should not be worked
more than just enough to mix the salt
with the butter, and then put in a
cool place twelve hours for the salt
t* dissolve when it can be reworked
and packed ready for market.
Condition Powders for Poultry.
The use of pulverized cayenne
pepper or capsicum, so . often advised
and resorted to, is discouraged
by experienced poultry raisers, on ac_
- count of its strong, penetrating and
almost poisonous nature. While it
may prove beneficial for the moment,
after its influence has been dispelled
it leaves the system more enfeebled
than at the outset and in its stead
the following compound is recommended:
Carbonate of iron, 1 ounce;
anise seed, 2; powdered ginger, 6;
mustard, 1; table salt, 2; sulphur, 2;
. \ / licorice, 4; powdered charcoal, 14.
These should be powdered and mixed
thoroughly, making 2 pounds of good
t condition powders, and if kept in a
tight box, will be good for a long
* time. A table-spoonful in ten quarts
of soft feed, or in that proportion, fed
every other day in warm weather,
#? ororv Hav In stnrmv or cold
. VI vrv*v ?^ ? ^ T
weather, will prove of service. For
growing chicks, one-half of the
amount of powders in the same quantity
of feed is sufficient. A table?
spoonful of the tincture of iron to each
gallon of drinking water should be
provided in all bad seasons.?The

Well Worth Trying.
Try to have a well-balanced garden.
Try to keep all tools in good ccn1?
dition.
Try portable sashes for hurrying
the seedlings.
Try burning all caterpillars' nests
found on trees and shrubbery.
Try planting another patch of
sweet peas for prolonged bloom. Try
the low-growing dwarf dahlias;
they promise to be a great success.
Try Jackmanni Clematis for the
west porch.
Try sweet alyssum for edging the
shrub bed; it will form a mass of
snow white bloom.
Trv hnnrthinc hramrhes of &DDle
blossoms, in grandma's old blue pitcher,
for the dinner table.
Try iron stakes and wire pegs, instead
of the usual wooden contriv^
anoes?they will last enough longer
to pay.
'Pry the use of only well rotted manure,
and spade It deeply; otherwise
It will prove too heating for the majority
of plants.
Try a large bed of mignonette for
fragrance and constant cutting, and
plant gay poppies in the background
by. way of contrast
* Try giving a final grading to all
paths as soon as the weather is settled;
and top the broken-stone paths
With a good binding gravel.
Try taking active measures to organize
a floral mission ia your neighborhood,
no matter where you live,
and note results in the improved condition
of back yards.
Try giving the fuchsias a rich
potting and planting them where the
mid-day sun cannot reach them: then
If thev are Vent well watered. r>ro
* fuse blooming may be depended upon.
Try making some cuttings now of
the well-ripened wood of your
favorite rose and stick them deeply
In the soil in the shade of the parent
bush, and you will have cause to rejoice
in the fall.
Feeding Swine in Summer.
4 Hogs, in order to do well in summer,
want good pasturage. Also, access
to water and mud to lie in.
. While mud is very bad for them in
cold weather, absorbinfg too much
animal heat then, it has on them a
soothing effect during warm weather,
? and will prevent them from "melting"
however fat. Plenty of grass to
eat is likewise cooling and loosening
to them, let alone that it counteracts
the feverish properties of corn, if that
is fed; and if it is desirable to fatten !
them, corn should be fed, for in con- j
a*

nection with the grass, water, mud
and a certain amount of milk, this is
one of the most economical ways of
making pork.
Without corn, moreover, hogs that
have been wintered on grain if turned
- 1 ?^..1A
on pasture in me spring *?wum ut
pretty sure to lose a good deal of the
fat which they hawe stored up. While
the succulent grass will stimulate the
appetite and correct stomach troubles
that have been caused by too heavy
winter diet, it would not be policy,
any way, to stop grain feeding and
give them all pasturage. Rather the
change should be made gradually, and
where liberal grain feeding was carried
on through the winter, a moderate
amount should certainly be given
through the early spring months when
pasturing begins. The danger of the
animals getting sick because of the
change in their diet will then be
greatly lessened.
If young, however, very Jittle com
or no cornmeal at all should be fed
until the pigs are at least four months
old. Otherwise they are apt to become
costive, followed by scouring,'
whereupon, rubbing against everything
they can get to, their skin will
have a red and dry appearance; next
a dry, black scurf will form, and the
more com and cornmeal they are
given the poorer they will become.
For checking scours in young pigs,
lettuce is good, and coarse flour or
middlings from rye or wheat, made
into a thin slop with milk, is, with
the exception of bread and milk, a
most ideal food for them.
To make it, the middlings should be
mixed with the milk at night after the
feeding has been done. With a little
of the old left in the bottom of the
swill tub, to act as yeast, it will be
in fine condition bv morning to feed,
especially if given often and never in
larger quantities than the pigs will
eat up clean. But, though it is necessary
for the swill to be become fermented
in order to digest well, care
should be taken never to let it get
stale. After four months old their
food, of course, can be made stronger,
and then it is that opportunities in
grass and corn should be made most
of.?Boston Cultivator.
r
Don't Make Garden In a Day.
J. C. Whitten, Horticulturist of
Missouri University gives the following
timely suggestions for garden
making:
"If the garden is planted all in a day
to get the disagreeable job out of the
way, it is probable that only one or
_ ^ _1 x- ill ikAin
two species Ol pia.iiis win ui/ lucn
best. Some will have been planted
too early and others too late.
"For best results in garden making
each kind of plant should be put out
at the time when conditions are best
suited to it. Lawn grass seed, sweet
peas, parsnips, onions, spinach and
some other species should be planted
as soon as the soil can be worked in
spring. Seeds of all these will germinate,
and even make stronger
growth, when the soil is only a few
degrees above freezing. If it freezes
more or less on cold nights after they
are planted no harm is usually done.
"Other plants, like nasturtiums,
candy-tuft, beets, potatoes, carrots,
etc., have a larger heat requirement
and should be planted in mid spring,
or at least later than the mentioned
list. They will net redure well if put
out on the first days when the ground
begins to thaw out that they should
be planted before the soil gets very
warm.
"Corn, beans, melons, cucumbers,
tomatoes and many others require a
warm soil and time will be gained if
tbey are not planted until the soil is
well warmed up to a considerable
depth. If put out too early, the seeds
are liable to decay in the soil. Even
if the plants do grow they will become
stunted by the cold and will not
develop into good plants. It saves
time to plant these warmth-loving
kinds after the soil is warm.
"Some species need a great deal of
heat. These are lima beans, okra or
gumbo, egg plants, and some others.
They should be the last vegetable
planted. Still other species should be
planted at intervals so as to get a
succession of vegetables for the table.
Most kinds which grow quickly may
be planted in succession. Radishes,
beets, lettuce, peas, and many others
are best only when they are tender
and succulent. Seeds of these may be
planted every three weeks for a time,
so as to have them under the first
half of the season.
"No date can be mentioned for
planting tne amerent sorts, seasons
differ. It may be warmer one year
on the first of April than it is two
weeks later another year. If one will
watch the starting of leaves and
flowers on early shrubs, he can get
an index as to the time to plant. To
plant sweet peas when the willow
catkins are coming out is a good rule,
and similar comparisons may be made
for other plants. This is accurate,
for the willows start, not on a given
day in March, but when they have
received heat enough to grow well."

The Bishop and the Waffles.
It would indeed be a queer oishop
who could not tell a good story on
himself. The late Bishop Dudley of
Kentucky was wont to relate with
much relish an interesting experience
which he once had in connection with
waffles.
At a fine old Virginia homestead
where he was a frequent guest the
waffles were always remarkably good.
One morning, as breakfast drew
near an end, the tidy little linencoated
black boy who served at table
approached Bishop Dudley and asked
in a low voice:
"Bishop, won't y' have 'n'er waffle?"
"Yes," said the genial bishop, i
believe I will."
"Dey ain' no mo'," then said the
nice little black boy.
"T7ell," exclaimed the surprised
reverend gentleman, "if there arn't
any more waffles, what made you ask
tti#> if i wanted another one?"
"Bishop," explained the little black
boy, "you's done et ten a'ready, an' I
fought y' wouldn't want no mo'."?'

A GREAT AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
FOR GEORGIA.
Xo more Important legislation has
been passed by the Georgia general
assembly at its present session than
that cf appropriating $100,000 for the
erection of suitable buildings and
equipments for an up-to-date agricultural
college in Connection with the
state university at Athens.
The recent trip of the Georgia stats
university trustees to Wisconsin for
the purpose of studying the great agricultural
college (there emphasized
the necessity of doing something for
this most important industry.
Hon. J. J. Connor, president of the
state agricultural society introduced
the bill to apropriate $100,000 for an
agricultural hall on the campus. Mr.
George Foster Peabody and others
purchased nine hundred acres of
land adjoining the old campus for over
$100,000. This will give ample room
for experiment station plats, general
farm crops, stock, orchards, forestry
and everything pertaining to the education
and life of the farmer. Here
will be planted orchards of every
kind of fruit that con be grown in
Georgia. Here will be herds of all
the best breeds of mitK and of beef
cattle, of hogs, houses, sheep and
poultry. Farm crops of every kind
will be grown, experiments in plant
breedings, till and fertilizing will be
conducted. To this great college and
farm, as it develops, will come hundreds
of students for the longer
courses, and thousands of farmers
will annually visit it for lectures and
demonstrations.
It will become the Mecca of every
Georgia farmer. Here will bis son
study. Here be will come with his
family in the summer to the annual
state institute. Here he will write
for information, for tests, for bulletins.
Here will be trained the teachers
to teach agriculture in the county
high schools, which are sure to
come willi in a icy* j who.
Every farmer should rejoice at the
recognition of his occupation as worthy
of the best building and the best
equipment on the university campus.
It means a new era of prosperity for
the farm.
This liberal provision guarantees
larger usefulness of the state's historic
university and will enable it to
preserve all the splendid traditions of
its glorious past, while it keeps
abreast of the spirit of modern progress.

Senor Duro's Voyage.
Details reaching France concerning
Senor Duro's aerial voyage over the
Pyrenees are of great interest for
those associated with aeronautics. It
appears that the. trip* was in the na
ture of a tour de force of seizing occasion
by the forelock. It had not been
proposed to do anything for a day or
two, but a steady wind from the north
setting in over Pau during Monday
afternoon, Senor Duro had his airship
rapidly inflated, and ns dusk was
setting in committed himself alone
to the winds of the night. He cleared
the Pyrenees over the Pic du Midi
d'Ossau, at a height of 9,000 feet,
traversing a furious hurricane of wind
and snow that for a time placed him
in some peril. He had to keep himself
.at this elevation most of the night,
by reason of the Spanish mountain
chains. He obtained elfin glimpses of
cities so widely separate'd as Saragossa,
Madrid and Toledo as he sped
along through the dark midair, and
abolit 4 a. m. on Tuesday the aeronaut
found that he had traversed
Spain in the night from north to
south. He was then over Linares, in
Granada, confronted by the great
peak of the Sierra Nevada, nearly
11,000 feet high, with the Mediterranean
behind it Rather than face this
prospect the senor came down at
Guadix, after traversing 452 miles in
ten and a half hours?a fine express

The Navy's Marksmanship.
"The criterion of target practice is
the actual number of hits per minute,"
says Secretary of the Navy
Bonaparte. "Many ships now average
between 75 and 90 per cent of hits
with all their main-battery guns,
whereas in former days the percent'
1- -? A rrV,
age was rareiy o?er cvcu uiuugu
firing slowly at a target more than
seven times as large as the present
one. Then the target was 100 feet
long* and 25 feet high; to-day it is 21
feet long and 12 feet high. This increase
in hitting ability is due to the
assiduous training in the target practices
which have been carried out under
the new system adopted and also
to improvement in ordnance. Going
back to 1S9S, when the navy was
using black powder and when sights
and other parts of the equipment
were poorly developed, our firing was
both slow and inaccurate. At that
time it was considered satisfactory if
a 12-inch gun fired one shot in five
minutes. But with each subsequent
improvement in ordnance the rapidi y
was somewhat increased, and by currying
out systematic target practice
the present striking efficiency has
hepn attained. For examDle. the
I heavy turret guns that were but a
few years ago allowed five minutes
in which to fire a shot, have recently
fired three shots and made three hif
in one minute."?Harper's Weekly.
