FARM NOTES.

Most people choose fruit by the ey,
more than By the palate. This Is why I'M
most productive and showysorts are profit
able to the growers.
The severe cold weather will prove {
great drawback to the laying hens tina
have large, tall combs, unless the quarter
IRE made very warm and dry.
Young lambs will begin to come in now
especially the early ones, but unless giver
the watchful care OF the farmer, will MOI
thrive, while many will be lost at birth.
mulching strawberries the danger to
be averted is not the freezing Of the plants
but the thawing OF the ground when the
weather begins to open. A mulch causes
this to be done gradually.
Russia is endeavoring to be independent
OF China for her tea. Products for the
climatized plant from Georgia, inthe eau
casus, were shown in Russian agricultur-
lists, but were inferior in quality.
The fact that our droughts occur much
oitener late in the season than early fayors
the raising Of the early varieties OF corn.
They arc certainly desirable when it is in
tended to follow corn with wheat.
Tho Chinese primrose is among the
most valuable Of window plants. 1t
blooms continuously, and its berry foliage
is very pretty in itself, and there is that
delicate, wildwood freshness about it that
is obtained in nothing else.
Tho hogs OF Iowa number G,000,O00. II.
linois has 300, 900, and Missouri l,G0O, 900.
Estimating the average weight OF the hogs
TO be 200 pounds, We have 3,l00, 600, 900
pounds OF pork, or over six pounds for
every person in the United States, and
that, too, from three States only.
The new breed Of fowls, the Wyandotte,
is reaching u high position in favor, as
they have compact bodies, yellow legs and
skin, and possess large size. They make
good layers and mothers, and have very
small combs, thereby being less liable TO
frosted combs in winter.
The State OF Ohio has 525 tile factories,
Indiana BG0, Illinois b50, Iowa 100, Michi-
gan 00-total number in tho States named,
1925. The number OF miles OF tile laid in
the States named, in the year 1883, was
SB,G25, and many OF the factories were not
able to supply the demand.
Do not waste the corn-Oobs. Use them
us fuel and save the ashes, US corn-Cobs
contain very large proportion OF potash,
and are very valuable for that substance
alone. IN addition they also make
economical fuel, burningfreely and easily,
and can be collected with but little labor,
The agricultural papers have most thor
oughly exposed the evils resulting from
cows TO drink from stagnant
ponds or from water that has remained
too long in troughs. The sweetest, purest |
aud most milk is obtained when COWS
have ready access to clear, pure water.

The New Jersey legislature of 1884
passed a bill forbid ding the sale of Gig
arettes to minors under the age of 16.
The penalty for such selling was fixed
AT $50 for every offense. The object
of the measure was to stop the excess
sive;use of them by boys. It is now a
year ;and half since the bill received
the governors approval but not one
case OF the carrying out OF the law has
been reported. Ithas been practically
q dead letter eyer since its passage, as
It ought to he and will be wherever
enacted. Such laws are not ex-
actly Asumptuary laws such as
are prohibited by the constitution, but
they are not very dissimilar, and can
not be executed. If the use Of cigar
cites may be prohibited to minors,
why not tobacco in any form, the ex-
cessive use of confectionery, coffee and
many other things that are not bene-
