FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Breed up instead of down.
The breeding stock for next year can
be mated up now.
Make the hens scratch for at least part
of what they get; they will be the
healthier.
good advantage in making up ration
for poultry.
Vegetables cooked in some form can
always be used in making a change of
diet for the fowls.
Never ship an egg that is in any man
ner soiled. The appearance is prime
factor in the sale of any article.
Kerosene is one of the best materials
to apply in the hen roosts to clear them
of lice; apply it literally with brush.
In nearly all cases a combination Of
early chickens for market with eggs in
season will pay better than either one
alone.
Near a good market ducks can often
be made more profitable than chickens,
especially when an incubator is used in
Matching.
To produce large market fowl, one
that fattens readily and is easily con-
fined cross Brahma cock with partridge
Cochin hen.
A breed that may be best in one
locality will not always prove best in an
other. Select according to locality as
well as purpose.
Coal ashes are good to scatter under
the roosts. The objection to wood
ashes is that they are too caustic, often
injuring the feet.
Unless they are provided with quarters
something better than the average, it is
a positive cruelty to pick either ducks or
geese during the winter.
While ducks will usually begin to lay
early in the season, it is not best TO have
them hatch until spring. They do not
thrive in cold, damp weather.
FASTING two or three thickuesses of
paper over the cracks on the inside will
add considerably to the warmth of the
poultry house. 1t is cheap and effective.
On the farm, under average conditions,
it does not COST any more to raise pound
of turkey than it does to raise pound
of PORK, and the turkey brings the best
! price.

EFFECTS OF FROST ON PLANTS.

Frost kills or in lures plants in more
ways than one, writes Carol Floss. In my
observation, especially of tie nder plants,
| have found that the effects of frost
vary in proportion to their more or less
watery nature and to the condition in
regard to moisture overhead and at the
roots in which they may happen to be at
the time when they get frozen. Some
plants will bear cold to an almost in
credible extent, provided water is with
held. On this point am sustained by a
well-knowI English authority, who tells
of having seen large examples of Agave
Americana that have stood in pots for a
whole year or more without water until
their leaves became shrivelled, bear as
much frost without being affected as
would have killed them had they been
plump and full of moisture. The harder
kinds of Echeveria are IN like manner in
different to a considerable amount of
cold when their roots and tops are quite
dry.
But this condition Of dryness may
easily be pushed too far in the case of
some kinds of plants, especially such as
are grown in pots and which If the soil
has been allowed to get so dry that they
are in a stagnant, feeble state, are often
killed by cold, when if the roots had
been in more moist condition little in
jury would have resulted. This applies
more particularly to plants of a non-suc-
culent character, such as ferns and many
greenhouse species that contain a large
proportion of fibre in their branches and
stems. Shrubby Calceolarias growing in
pots, with the soil in a moderately moist
state, suffer little when caught by frost
that would have killed them had they
been in soil too dry to keep the leaves
crisp aud plump. The Lemon Verbena
will bear several degrees of frost when
the soil is IN a half moist state, but if
dry when frozen it rarely RECEIVERS.
Numbers Of other plants might be
named that are very susceptible to injury
from frost when the soil in which their
roots are placed is too dry, thus showing
that although many plants will bear a
low temperature when the soil about
their roots is quite dry, there are others
to which the principle does not apply.
So far from being able to stand more
frost when their energies are stagnated
flom want of water they suffer in pro-
portion to the extent to which their dry
ing process has been carried.-New
York World.

TO UTILIZE A DRY DITCH.

A very useful thing for farmer to
know is how to utilize dry ditch, and
in California they have an excellent way
of doing it. After the water is turned
out in early summer. instead of allowing
the banks to become swamp of weeds,
to his own detriment and the undoing
of those below, the farmer plows the
banks and the bottoms of the ditch and
plants pumpkins therein. Surprising
his ditch runs, say, for three quarters of
mile, he raises from fifty to 100 wagon
loads of pumpkins of the largest kind.
After they are gathered IN the fall and
the vines are dry he dumps them into
ditch and sets fire to them. The result
is ditch as clean as garden-w walk,
and no weed seed to be spread over
thousands o. acres as soon as the water
is turned in. to say nothing of the bal
ance to the good IN large and valuable
crop at a comparatively light expense

Our Biggest Gun.

The twelve-inch breech-loading rife
which has just been sent overland from
Washington to San Francisco, CAL, to
form part of the armament of the new
armor-clad coast-defender Monterey,
represents the biggest achievement IN
gunmaking yet undertaken for the United
States Navy. The new gun is so big that
it had to have a steel girder car built
especially for it. The gun weighs trif1e
over fifty tons, is thirty-six feet long and
will hurl a projectile weighing $50
pounds. The propulsive power of this
tremendous missile is furnished by a
charge of 43O pounds of brown powder;
the velocity is 1941 feet per second and
the muzzle energy as shown by tests
made is %, AGO foot tons. Equipped
with two of these monsters and two ten
inch rifles like that of the Miantonomoh,
the Monterey will be one of the most for
midable coast defensive battleships ever
constructed. The Bethlehem Iron Works
and Carnegie, Phipps & Co. are working
nights shifts of men in order to complete
her armor plates on time. It is cheering
to know that in two months the Pacific
coast will be protected by vessel able
to fight anything that foats.-New York

IS TAR PAPER INJURIOUs2

Edwin Fox, Eaton County, Mich,
desires information whether tar felt ap-
piled to the stem of apple trees, as a
protection against rabbits, will prove in
furious. For many years we have used
the ordinary tarred building and roofing
paper and felt for wrapping the stems of
apple, ounce and peach trees to protect
them against the attacks of bore1s, but,
up to the present hour, we have never
discovered that the bark under these
wrdppings was injured by the tar. We
renew these wrappings every two years,
and on removing the old ones have
always found the bark clean and
healthy. We have, however, known
healthy trees killed by applying fresh
warm coal tar direct to the stems and
bark, and probably made PAPER or felt,
with the tar dripping from it, might
prove injurious, but no dry paper, or one
we'll cured, can possibly injure your
trees, and it will prevent the rabbits
from gnawing the bark.-American
Agriculturist.

Washington had many admirable
traits worthy Of imitation, and one of
them was rigid punctuality. This was
well illustrated by an incident during
his visit to Boston, Mass, one hundred
years ago. Having appointed eight o'clock
IN the morning as the hour at which he
should set out for Salem, no mounted
his horse just as the Old South clock was
striking that hour. The company of
cavalry which was to escort him did not
arrive till after his departure, and did
not overtake him till he reached Charles
River Bridge.-New York Observer.

WANTED, BETTER PLowMEN.

It is hardly too much to say that good
blowing is the foundation Of good farm
ing. In the good ola times, when State
and county fairs were novelties, blowing
matches were frequent and popular. We
had poorer plows, perhaps, but in many
sections, at least, We certainly had better
plowmen. Farmers sons competed at
the blowing matches, and Scotch and
English plowmen astonished us by the
skillful manner in which they turned
straight and regular lapfurrows. "But, ;"
we asked, "what is the good?" In our
climate, and with modern harrows, pull
verizers, and grain drills, such burrows
are seldom of any special benefit, while
frequently fat wide furrow will better
withstand drought. We wanted to pillow
faster, and get in the crops. He was
the best plowman who could turn over
two or three acres a day. Perhaps we
plow too wide a furrow, but there is not
much possibility of Our blowing narrower
unless we use plows that will turn two or
three burrows at once.
But we need better blowing. Lcok at
many of our fields Of oats and barley any
year. 1t is not too much to say that a
really clean field is an exception, while
patches of thistle are the rule. They
are a growing evil. Notwithstanding
the fact that We have better implements
for pulverizing land and preparing it for
the seed and better cultivators for work
ing among the crops, and really do work
our land better than formerly, yet Can.
- +ho
reason is largely poor blowing. With

WHEN THE MILK IS FIT FOR USE.

A variety of opinions and notions are
entertained regarding the use of the milk
for culinary purposes, Or for drinking
that from the newly-calved cows, says
the Indiana Farmer. No established
rule seems to be in force, and the interval
between calving and using the milk varies
from three milkings to nine days, each
dairyman having a theory OF his own to
determine the time required before the
milk is ''good." On account of these
ideas, and in the absence of positive
proof, and the knowledge Of how to do
it, a great deal of profitable milk is
sacrificed or thrown away under the sup
position that it is not healthy and is I'M
fitted for human food. A simple way
to settle the question and dispel all
doubts is to place small quantity of
milk in vessel upon the stove, allow it
to come to boil, and if no appearance
of curdling is present, the milk is all
right. Heat at boiling point produces
the change that makes visible to the eye
the condition when 1t is proper to use
the milk, and in no other way-except
by the more difficult process of analysis,
or by guess-can this be ascertained. 1t
will be found generally, if no other con-
ditions are normal, and the milk is from
a cow in perfect health-that curdling,
under the treatment described, will dis
appear after the third or fourth milking
from the time the calf was dropped, and
when this occurs the milk may, with
entire confidence, be utilized in any way
desired. Farmers Review.
