FACTS FOR FARMERS


Ir is very desirable to keep the breed
ing stock in a good thrifty condition.
A failure to do this will show in the
offspring.
Too CLOSE breeding should be avoided
with sheep fully as much as with any
other class of stock. Change the same
every two years at least.
THERE is an opening for some enter
prising individual to introduce late,
Strawberries that win not ripen until
our present well-known varieties are
out of season.
ONE cubic foot of silage is estimated
as the allowance for one cow per day.
On this basis the size of the silo re-
uuired for n certain number of cattle
may be easily calculated.
THERE is no loss of any material that
is applied to the soil If the ground is
plowed and ready for crop when the
manure is spread unless the soil is very
porous or subject to being washed"
THOSE who have used paris green as
an insecticide should not apply it to
cabbage as remedy against the cab
bage worm, as the poison will remain
and harm those who consume the cab
bage.
If the sheep are turned into the corn
6eld care should be taken to see that
they have access to plenty of water. It
Is hardly good economy to turn sheep
into any place where there are cookie
burrs
Too MUCH live stock is quite as bad
for the farmer as too much land Do
not crowd the stock, and do not keep
more than can be fed well, pastured
well and housed well. If you have
more than this sell off the surplus
speedily.
A SOLUTION of crude carbolic acid
will be found excellent for destroying
odors, but to destroy an odor does not
get rid of the cause of the odor, only
Disgusting it by substituting one more
powerful; hence clean away the sub
stance that produces the annoyance.
RUST in wheat may be prevented by
destroying the spores in the seed Dis
solve u pound Of sulphate of copper in
ten gallons of water and soak the seed
in the solution for twenty-four hours,
and then dry the seed by dusting or
rolling in land plaster, sowing the seed
as soon as it is dry.
A PINT of linseed meal, and the same
of cornmeal, mixed ard scalded with
boiling water, if given to an animal at
night will sometimes prove more BEN
eficial than any medicine that can be
given. Linseed meal regulates the
bowels and relieves constipation, as
well as preventing scours.

AN ECONOMICAL sILO.
Valuable Suggestions fr5In the \,
Harnnshlrn I..-ncrl ln...t @rntinn.

Valuable Suggestions fr5In the New
Hampshire Experiment station.
The day OF costly silos is past, says
Director Whitcher, of the New Hamp-
shire station, and 1t is this fact alone
which enables the rapid extension of
this system of storage. A wooden silo
keeps its contents with less loss than
stone or cement one, chiefly because of
the pentration of air through mortar
and cement silo built independent
of the barn can be built for 81 per
ton of capacity, if the capacity is above
20 tons. Ii built in the corner of
barn, the cost of labor and material
will be about half that sum. A silo
16x16x25 feet win hold 100 tons.
As stated in n bulletin of the station
above mentioned. if built in the corner
of n barn. it will require forty pieces
studding, 2xS, twenty-five feet long
$50 feet; four pieces basement sills SKIS
seventeen feet long-360 feet; boards
for inside walls, $500. The boards
should not be over seven inches wide,
planed on one side, and the inside
course made TO break joints with the
outside course. Matching the boards
IS useless. Common covering boards,
free from loose knots, are good enough,
and in many eases the barn frame and
studding can be partly utilized, and
the above quantity of lumber be con-
siderably reduced. a cement bottom,
though not necessary, is desirable.
Among the advantages enumerated
for the silo are the following: More
actual food material can be produced
from an acre of corn than from any
other of our common farm crops.
Three times as much dry substance
may be produced from a given area of
| corn as from n like area of grass. The
objection sometimes made that ensi-
lage is too watery is met with the
statement that it is not as watery as
pasture grass in June.
The farmer who has a silo is about
as independent of the weather as a
man can be. Aside from heavy rains
nothing interrupts this kind of harvest
ing. Light rain and showers, while
making the work disagreeablc, do not
stop it, and when once properly in the
silo, all danger of imperfect curing is
| past. The early date at which the
land can be cleared makes it possible
| to either seed down to grass or winter
| grain a month before corn in the shock
would be dry enough to husk. Another
advantage in the north is that varie-
ties of larger and later growth may be
planted for this purpose that will not
| fully ripen before frost

utes there were hot words between the
proprietor of the theater and his COM
pany when n compromise was effected
by Sanford pledging his people the re-
ceipts of that evening. 1t was at this
juncture that the sole representative of
the orchestra in this temple of art
spoke up: 81 will play not Won note
more It'll / haf my money. Not Won
leetle note"
The speaker was German, of that
type that misleads one in believing
them Spanish or Sicilian until their
tongue is heard. Tall and slender with
match behind gold-rimmcd spectacles,
he appeared in strange contrast to
both performers and audience here.
He looked TO be about thirty years Of
age, and was always dressed like a
gentleman, which fact alone had given
him no little annoyance. No one knew
from where he had come; but two
weeks before the occurrence of the
scene described in this narrative, he
had applied to Sanford for his present
position, and, as it was then vacant, he
had been Immediately installed. He
had made friends with no one about
the place, remaining in his room near
ly all of the time. The name he had
given was Otto Heimer, and hiO bag
gage consisted of small valise and n
black leather case containing violin.
No one had heard him play this in
strument, however, and its existence
had slipped from this memory Of the
few idle, curious miners who were
lounging about the entrance Of the
tavern when he had alighted from the
stage two weeks before. The red
headed boy, before alluded TO as the
assistant dispenser at the bar, had
asked our hero why he didn't "bring
his fiddle out and play" but the answer
had been:
"My violin is a lady; this place is not
fit for her.
That refusal to work on the occa-
sion referred to at the opening of this
story should come from the musician
proved IA complete surprise to Sanford.
There was an ominous look in his eyes,
and when the statement was repeated
he drew revolver and putting il TO
Heimcr's head said with an oath: "You
win play If say So"
1t was no time for argument and the
performance passed of as usual But
the pianist looked gloomy, and anyone
with an ear for the music must have
felt that u smothering volcano was

staples On the end side of the cart
can be carried few boards and posts.
OF course this is only for repairing,
and if a man repairs twice year it
will not take long and but few posts
and boards will have to be taken along.
But if the fence is old and wants much
repairing load your wagon with posts
and boards and string them ont where
wanted, letting your man follow with
the cart. Then the team can be taken
to the house and put to work By so
doing a man and team is gained, for
with this cart one man can do as much
and do it as well rs two men with
team with a load of material.-M. LaF.
Raney, in Farm and Home.

ten minutes had extended TO a half
hour, and not word had been spoken
The swapping of string at last broke
the spell. There was confused muir
mur. Jim said: Times up;" but sew
eral of the men protested. "a guilty
man can't play like that" said one
rough customer, to whom the music
had awakened memories of a better
day, leaving traces on his checks
There was dispute for moment or
two, but Reeves faction prevailed The
prisoner sat motionless. The break
ing of the string had brought him back
to the realization that his dreams were
of the past, and his life also soon to be
cut off.
just as violent hands were about be-
ing laid on him, there rushed into the
room boy who frantically cried; The
fiddler must not be hanged. The wom-
an in the next room says so. She is
sick and wants to say something to q
priest"
''Wait a minute, boys" Reeves ex-
claimed; "rll see what this means"
He and two others followed the boy
into the rough chamber, where the
woman Law a mere wreck with the
deathly traces of drink and con-
sumption plainly written on her coun-
tenance.
When Reeves emerged from the
death chamber he related to the ex-
pectant crowd the story he had learned
from the sick woman. In substance it
was this:
Sanford had insulted the woman,
who through all her vicious life had
| kept some shreds of modesty about her.
In their drunken row all three had
come to blows, and in moment of
frenzy the woman had stabbed Sanford
to the heart with the knife she had
stolen from Ueimer the day before.
Stupefied by liquor and fright, she did
not then realize the enormity OF her
deed, and had gone to her room, only
to fall into drunken sleep, from
which she was aroused many hours af-
ter by the noise of the trial" in the
room below. On learning from the boy
the meaning of the uproar the whole
scene of the night before came back to
her with painful vividness-the row,
then the crime unseen by anyone, (her
husband having fallen senseless from q
blow Sanford had given him. She was
first tempted to keep silence, but
strains of music had come to her ears
like the wall of a man protesting his
innocence. Remorse was soon followed
by repentance, and it was her messen-
ger who had saved the mans life
'sNow," said jim, 81 want to apollo
| gize to this 'ere man for the way we've
| handled him. Pard, will you take my
hand? I've heard heaps o preachin' in
my day, though we don't get much in
! these parts; but l never knew a prayer
to go so straight to the heart as this
'ere musicianer's. Boys, Wen take up
collection for -him, and he can stay
/ here; and we will give him n rake Off
if he will play for us now and then"
! Now that the strain was removed the
violinist broke down completely. Il
| thank you, friends" he said, but l
~Inust go home to my own country "
THAT same night the sick woman died
And the next morning when the stage
pulled out with the one passenger a
crowd of rough miners stood at the
"hotel" corner and gave three hearty
cheers for the ''nusicianer." w E
