Clean Cellars Necessary for Healthy Hon

Clean Cellars Necessary for Healthy Homes.
In city and country alike, it is the dark
corners, the neglected and little used
places in the house, which most frequent
ly contribute to its unhealthfulness, and
in ways which are the mo1e insidious be-
cause so often unsupported. In this re-
spect the cellars of many houses have
much to answer for, for they are general
ly dark and damp, with no direct rays of
the sun to kill the lnephitie gases which
always seek those low levels, and ventila-
ton to disperse them, even where the eel
lars. themselves are not made to deposi-
tories of cast-off rubbish and vegetable
refuse.
Therefore the warning cannot be too
often given, especially in the spring when
SO many families move into new houses,
and when the good housewife generally
enfOrces the most thorough cleaning and
Overhauling of the year to look to it that
the cellar is not neglected. Their cell
ings and walls should be plastered and
whitewashed or calcimined when possible,
to keep them dry and clean, and the occu-
pants should prevent their cellars above
all things from becoming ''poke-h oles''
for rubbish; the floors should be well pay
ed Or cemented to keep out emanations
from the soil; and where this can be done
they should be ventilated by keeping
open in dry weather, windows or doors
communicating with the outside air.
Emanations from cellars do not kill in
a night; they are but to frequently not
noticed at all, although damp and moul-
dy cellars have undoubtedly done much to
undermine the health of many families.
The cellar air is taken up through the
rooms of the house gradually, and in
small doses at a time, but the warmer air
of the upper rooms produces an upward
current every time the cellar door is
opened, and neglect in regard to this
matter is sure to entail serious conse-
quence because the real reason is often
overlooked.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1886-09-16

sent greater profit than giving the calves
all the milk from their dams.
"With our cows and heifers it has been
impossible to decide that those reared on
whole milk were larger or more symmet-
rical, when mature, than those reared on
skim milk, although the latter require
somewhat longer time to fully mature
than do the former.
"Our practice is to have the calves
dropped at all seasons, the hot months
being least desirable, but for rearing on
skim milk, the preference is given to
those dropped in the autumn. With COM
Portable quarters these will make almost
or quite as much growth when young, as
those dropped in the spring. They can
be weaned at the time when they can go
on grass, and will come to the second
winter robust and in good shape or the
change to dry feed. Spring dropped
calves must go into winter quarters soon
after weaving.
''For some reasons it is desirable that
heifers should calve in the spring. Fall
dropped cow-calves can be so bred as
to drop their first calves in the spring
when they are about thirty months old,
which we have found to be the desirable
age.

The feathers of chickens NAV be util-
lied. A full-grown hen will WELD when
dead and plucked from two to three
ounces Of feathers.
If you receive trees or plants shipped
from distance, 1t is well to place the
roots in water from twelve to twenty-four
hours before planting.
Do not let the blackberry and raspberry
canes grow up in grass, but cultivate
them thoroughly, so as to secure greater
growth and stronger canes.
An inferior animal will make an infer
ior use of the food it eats. A good ami
nal will make a more profitable use of
the same or even a greater quantity of
food.
Road-dust may be gathered easily now
and stored for use in poultry houses,
stables and out-houses in the winter,
where it Will be worth much more than its
cost.
Some of the best COWS are the result of
crossing our natives with thoroughbred
bulls, and this fact should encourage
dairymen to use only males of the i'm
proved breeds.
There is a strong favor growing for the
white breeds of poultry, as such fowls
dress well for market, the feathers
now showing as clearly as old black plu-
mayed birds.
A solution of boracic acid is excellent
for fowls affected with sore head or eyes.
It should be applied warm, using a soft
sponge, and marking the head, eyes and
nostrils well with it.
Do not allow your meadows to be gnaw-
ed down into the ground because rains
have freshened them up a little. 1t is
not good policy to pasture meadows
severely in the autumn.

What is Farming
American AgriculturaIist.

1t is something more than staying on a
farm. It is something more than skim
ming the soil. Tt is more than selling
hay or potatoes, and bulky crops unani-
malized. Farming is a business, a pro-
fession, practical and scientific opera
ton. The process of nature must be an
derstood, and worked in harmony with
the chemistry of the earth and air. The
processes of nature must be understood,
if not in their technical terms and Ian
guage in that common way, in that sensi-
bic understanding, that common sense
way that their own advantage and capa-
bilities may be turned to the best ac-
count.
The lawyer works by law and precedent,
the physician works by symptoms and
indications, the merchant by rules and
observations, the mechanic by measures
and capacities. The farmer must work
by abby rules, laws, observations, and
experiments. He must be skilled work
man in the productive, operative and
commercial circles in which his bust
ness lies and his sphere of circulation ex-
tends.
