Keep Out Cold Air.
A hole in the granary, through
which the (grain would be lost, would
not be allowed to exist very long af
ter its discovery. A hole in the stable ,
through which the cold air enters and j
chills the animals, causes a loss of ]
grain just as surely as the hole in the
granary, as'more food will be required
to assist the animals in maintaining
warmth. It. is the things that are unobserved
which sometimes cause less.
When the flow of milk is reduced or the
animals do not make gain proportionately
to the food allowed, there is always
a cause, and it should be sought.
Cows Will Founder.
Cows will founder the same as will
r horses from being overfed by some
foods that cannot readily be digested,
and will show the characteristic lame- I
ness which results in horses when.they
are overfed with anything. Of course,
as digestion is interrupted the animal
becomes feverish and her milk flow
ceases. It will take several days of
careful feeding to put a found*ted cowan
good condition again. She should
be kept in a dry place, and given all
the water she will drink, w-ith light,
easily digested foods in small quanties
until digestion is restored to its
normal condition. Hoven also results

Cost of Producing Pork.
It is claimed the* 20 pounds of
pork (live hog) can be made from one |
bushel of corn, but no portion of the j
corn must be wasted by lack of warm
shelter or a variety of other food. The
possibilities with corn depend on the
condition of management. Corn and
milk will give greater gain than can
be obtained from corn without milk or .
from milk without corn for the reason
that one kind of good supplies some
element that may be lacking in the
other. Corn is deficient in lime, yet lime
is essential in producing bone. .Milk,
cut clover (scalded) and bran contain
, lime, but are not as fartening as corn,
A combination of foods cheapens the
cost of corn and other substances, be- ;
cause there is a greater gain in the
weight of .the animal.
How to Save $60,COO,(XX).
, The United States imports annually |
about $60,000,000 worth of drugs and j
;dyes made from products that could be j
jgrown in the United States just as well.
Camphor now sells for 25 cents a
pound, and while not an ounce of it is
grown in this country, the government
rhas demonstrated that camphor trees
are successful here. Licorice root is
another thing that possesses great pos'isibilities.
The department of agriculture
has demonstrated that the licor ice
plant is hardy as far north as Pennsylvania
Belladonna has also been
(Shown to do well in good garden soil.
The only way to determine absolutely
iwhether these various special crops
;can be grown successfully is to try
and it is well to do this in a
small way at first.?Farming.
Trees by tfte Roadside.
The German province of Hanover
.owns 1967 miles of highways on which
ithere are 175,794 fruit trees?pear,
cherry, plum and apple?sufficient, if
,set out eight to an acre, to form an
orchard of more than 300 square miles.
iThfl fruit raised on these trees is a j
isource of income fcr the province, I
i-which sometimes mades $40,000 a year
, jby "selling the products of this elon
gated orchard.
The province maintains a nursery
of 403 acres to supply young trees for
;roadside use and for promoting the
(Interests of fruit culture. The profit
I of a tree is very small, but the Hanover
people do not worry about that.
(Shade is afforded in summer, the roadjbed
is free from dust, the presence
of trees retards the washing out of the
isoil from the banks into the roadside
ditches and the attractive appearance
tof the roadsides stimulates an interest
in tr.ee culture and benefits the province
in many other ways. The find

Bone and Wheat for Pullets.
1. If the pullets which have attained a
.laying size and age have net yet be[
gun to produce eggs, begin feeding
,ground bone, wheat and barley. The
: claim is made that a cake composed of
ibran, corn meal and whole wheat?an
.equal amount of wheat and corn meal
| being used with twice as much bran is
. excellent for the purpose of forcing
pullets to begin laying. This cake
should be crumbled and fed once a day.
i Whether in the case or puiiets or
olcier hens, a varied ration is neces,
sary to get the best results. The list
may well include outs, wheat, barley,
, buckwheat, cracked corn, vegetables,
; cut clover, alfalfa meal and ground
I bone or meat scraps. A considerable
amount of green food in one form
or another is necessary. Clover and alifalfa
meal answer very well, but cab:
bage, carrots, beets, etc.. can be used
! more profitably in seme cases. Small
[potatoes are good if not feci too liberally.
The /grains, at least wheat, oats, bar
| ley and cracked corn can be fed at
different times during the winter; at
least two kinds, of grain should be fed
each day. Oats are excellent for year- I
li-ngs and older hens, but.should be fed j
rather sparingly to pullets, owing to j
j the danger of the sharp points injuring

of corn is to be recommended, but it
must l>e, supplemented by other grains,
as well as cut bone or beef scraps and
green food. Corn is fattening but it
is heating as well, and gives color to
the yolks of the eggs,?*
It is impossible to obtain satisfactory
results unless the hens are kept busy,
and the only satisfactory way to keep
them active is to have the floor of the
poultry house covered to a depth of

straw, hay, leaves or cut cornstalks.?

Manure's and Fertilizers.
Without manure or fertilizer there is
no farm capable of producing crops
year after year, for all soils ,most be
supplied with that which should take
the place of the substances removed
during the growth ojt' crops. Giants, |
like animals, have .life, are possessed j
of organs- and vessels in which circa- '
lates a fluid, and which aided by an ]
appropriate nourishment, develop an j
organic mass in a given time.. The j
most fruitful soil will -be that which in |
the same time will have produced the j
most considerable weight of organic j
matter reduced to .a dry state. All |
manure put into the earth should be
! in a state of humus and as soluble in j
I water as possible, so that the plants
can seize upon it and appropriate it
I to themselves. Manure consists of . all
j the elements of vegetable matter. As
soon as it is soluble the roots absorb
it and communicate it to the interior
orga-ns of the plant, which secrete it in j
the parts in which it has need to deveiop
itself; hence the more a piece of j
land is mixed with soluble manure,
the more it produces plants and vege- \
table qualifications, only the consump- j
i tion of the manure is -not the same in J
I \
all. In order to derive crops from the 1
soil, therefore, the weight of the plant j
f 3 ~ ~ .3 ,1 ? ,3 -Via PAll oi thor In thp J
JUUUb dUUCU IV iili. ovu,
forms of manure or fertilizer, should j
be equal to the plant foods of the crop
to be obtained; in other terms, when >
one wishes to obtain from a field which
has -no trace cf manure a production of
given weight it is necessary to carry
and place .in this field other organic
matters produced elsewhere and of an
equal weight, or the soil will lose in
fertility.
Plant foods exist in the soil in soluble
condition as well as in the form of
inert mineral matter. Plants, to accomplish
their life, to arrive to the
state of .being organic, have absolutely
need of that which is the result of
the decomposition of other vegetable
or animal organic niatter spread upon
the surface of the earth. Some plants
are largely beneficial, as there are
plants which, although imparting to
the soil a part of their nourishment, by
the means of their roots left in the
ground, appropriate to themselves also
a great quantity of atmospheric matter
by means of their leaves, such as carbon,
and have, besides this great advantage.
that even when they are carried
cut of the field they leave more
organic matter than they have consumed
for their growth. It is largely
' -J? I LI.
owing to rnis aamirituie iHupcuj w i
certain plants to produce more organic
matter than they absorb from j
the earth that it is possible to maintain !
the fertility of a piece of ground in
rendering to it only a part of that
which it has produced. If plants were
nourished only by the humus spread
upon, the earth farmers would .be compelled
to replace the production which
cannot be converted into manure by a
proportionate quantity of vegetables
cultivated in another piece of land, and
if the strength of the vegetation should
diminish even little by little, the money
-used for the cultivation of the soil
would eventually be lost. Fortunately
for the farmer, he can increase the I
quantity of plant food in his soil by
growing crops to be plowed under, or
by adding barnyard manure and fertilizer,
the advantages thus afforded
being within the reach of all.?Phila

Bear Hunter's Record.
The first bear of the season was exhibited
at Kreher's meat market on
Saturday, having been trapped by the
pitch pine camp hunters, led by the
celebrated bear hunter Gleen Scofield.
It was the second one trapped in the
last two weeks on the Penfield road
between the camp and Penfield.
It might be well to remark here that
Mr. Scofield is perhaps the biggest
bear hunter in this part of the State,
and his record in seven years last
past is twenty-nine bears?more bears
than some hunters have killed pheas- I
ants.?Raftsman's Journal.
, A farmer at Winburg, Orange River
Colony, alleges that in his district
alone 24.000 sheep are stolen annually
by the natives. On this basis he calculates
that 300,000 sheep .are stolen
throughout the colony every year.

Mirage Off Coney Island.
Early marine observers on * the ! ]
snowy beach at Coney Island yester- j 1
day morning had a fine glimpse of 1
air shipping. The sun was about an j 1
hour high, the breeze iight, and the . j
sea had just enough of a lop on to give \
a slightly scalloped horizon. Strung ! j
out in order from the sun track there j .
were seen coining in a tern, a fisher- j
man's sioop. a schooner with topsails j '
drawing, and a liner making her way j :
up the main ship channel. This lit- j '
tie fleet in the ofliiig was held in a
mirage which lifted every vessel above I ,
the horizon by about ten or twelve !
degrees, and left a strip of clear air j
beneath every water line. Thus float- j 1

FIFTEEN YEARS OF ECZEMA.
Terrible Itching Prevented Sleep? I
Hands, Arms, and Legs Affected
?Cured in 6 Days by Cuticura.
"I had eczema nearly fifteen years. The
affected parts were my hands, arms and
legs. They were the worst in the winter
time and were always itchy, and I could
not keep from scratching them. I had to
keep both hands bandaged all the time,
and at night I would have to scratch
through the bandages ?S the itching was
so severe, and at times I would have to
tear everything off my hands to scratch j
the skin. I could not rest or sleep. I had 1
several physicians treat me, but they could '
not give ine a permanent cure, nor even j
could they stop the itching. After using j
the Cuticura Soap, one box Cuticura Oint- j
ment and two bottles Cuticura Resolvent |
for about six days the itching had ceased, j
and now the sores have disappeared, and |
