FARM NOTES.


The bohemian oats swindler is again
on his annual tour
Plant two-year-old grape-vines; set
them at least eight feet apart A we'll
trained lime soil is the best
AS soon as the season and the condi-
tion OF the soil will admit, corn plant
ing should be pushed along as rapidly
as possible.
With a diversity OF crops and a vari-
ETY. of stock to feed it out to, the risks of
failure are considerably decreased.
While the profits in farming are small
every advantage must be taken not TO
sustain loss.
White beans can generally be made
profitable and especially on land that
has been cropped down. Not that il is
not best to plant on good soil, but as
rue on thin land better crops Of white
beans can be made than of almost any
thing else.
Farmers in the neighborhOod Of Hutch
inson, Kan, propose TO use salt as a
fertilizer this spring for the purpose of
increasing the yield OF crops. They
will buy crude salt by the car load and
scatter it over their fields They ex-
pect to get some remarkable results.
From the amount of oats and fax
being sown this spring we would draw
the conclusion that Anderson County
farmers are not going to rely wholly
upon corn as they did last year Flax
is one of the best crops you can raise 10
bring ready cash.-Garnett kan. Re-
publican.
Care must still be taken to feed the
sitting hens The days are sometimes
so chilly that il the eggs are left too
long they will be so chilled that tho vi
tality will be killed. While the hens
will not need SO much feed AS when they
are laying, yet what they do need should
be supplied where they can get it con-
veniently.
The raising of peaches which was az
one time carried on in Kansas 10 a very
large extent and great success in the
quality of the fruit, promises soon TO
regain its Importance. In 1SSS there
were 4.996, 6o9 bearing peach trees, and
9, S53 333 non-bearing. The fruit trees
of all kinds in the State number about
o., 600. 600 and the product is about 81,
l0O, 600 peaches producing about $780,
BOO year.
To raise good peas have rich soil
the manure pulverized and
we'll mixed in the soil. Plow deep and
lay of in burrows, which should alst be
deep. Have two rows about foot
apart and drill the seeds in close five or
six inches deep II the peas are climb
,rs set a wcll-braced post at each end
of the rows and stretch three wires ON
Zach side Of them, supported by stakes

STOCK ITEMS.

Tho pig pen, the COW and horse stables
are all improved by a coat Of whitewash.
As warm weather approaches care
should be taken to see that good venti-
lation is afforded in the stables and
especially 80 with the work teams
When hog loses appetite 1t may be
that all he requires Is lump Of char
coal Charcoal should always be kept
where the hogs can eat 1t at will.
In the Southern Statos no milking is
performed until the ndder Of the COW is
washed and wiped dry with clean
towel. This Is an old custom in that
section and it should be followed else
where.
AS soon as the young pigs begin 70
eat place should be provided for them
and they should be fed regularly
Ground oats and wheat bran made into
a slop with sweet skim milk, is good
feed for them.
A Maine horseman recently remarked:
"Sixteen-hand horses are the coming
brand. We haven't got enough of them
now to supply the demand, but we must
go to breeding them. The fashion in
this respect is not likely to change for
long time TO come"
Quantity OF food eaten does not indi-
cate that an animal must necessarily
thrive and fatten by reason Of the bulk
consumed. The quality of the food is
more important 1t is tax to compel
an animal to digest more food than 1t
should in order to thrive.
Hogs or poultry that die of cholera
should either be burned or buried deep.
Under no condition should they be al
lowed to lay around spreading the dis
ease, which they certainly will do; get
them away as soon as possible Burn
ing is best, and burying the next
For weaning colts provide good box
stall large enough for a number TO be
weaned. Feed them in it for week or
more, so they will get used to 1t. See
that their hangers and feed boxes are
in good order before commencing. and
provide good vessel to hold water for
the night, as it will require from two to
three gallons per head each night
Absent-minded, careless, inattentive
drivers often get their horses into bad
habits that are very difficult to eradi-
cate. One OF the most common is a
ha bit Of boring to one side OF the road
and hanging perpetually on one rein
Avoid curb bits in this case. as with
them a side pull is so much like back
pull that any horse may be excused for
~Sa~, 4er<he othes.
1t is noticeable and gratifying fact
that cattle, indeed horses and all kinds
OF stock, have risen in value from thirty
to fifty per cent during the past three
and are still going up. Why2
The cause is not hard TO find. The farm
ers are no longer selling them for a song
because they have no feed for them, and
are thus no longer at the mercy Of the
buyers who would force them down to
the lowest price -salina kan Repub-
