Manure.

The value of manure depends upon
its condition and not its bulk, says the
Southern Live Stock Journal
1t is an exceptional case when it can
be considered good economy to increase
the bulk of the manure heap, while
lowering its quality.
Occasionally in stiff, hard, run
down soil the addition of coarse bulky
material will help to loosen it and
make it pliable. But generally in bed
ding the stock, only what Is necessary
to properly absorb the liquid voidings
and to keep the stock clean, should be
used.
Increasing the bulk increases the
cost of applying without increasing the
benefits. When it can be done without
too much work there is no question but
that one of the best plans of manage
ment is to run all material like straw,
hay, or corn stalks used for bedding,
through a cutting box before using;
this puts it in much better condition
to be handled in applying, and the
manure can be distributed much moro
evenly and can be worked into the soil
to a much better advantage than would
otherwise be possible. While by rot
ting before hauling out and applying
the same results can be secured, but
rotting increases the work very mate

clearly said that it is very clear to ono
who studies the drift of thinps i,ot
now that the most successful farme.
will be the one who changes his system
to meet the changed condition of de-
mands for his products, and, as far s..
his circumstances will permit, to pro-
duce those special crops that sell most
easily and are most easily grown
Thus the most successful farmers of the
present time are those who rear mar.
ket pigs, lambs, poultry or fine dairy
stock; grow potatoes, celery, small
fruits or hay, make fine butter or fancy
cheese, produce milk or cream for
sale, and who in their special wavs sun
ply demands for single products that
meet with ready and profitable sales. +
This system has become so common
and successful that there are localities
where nothing but one special product
is cultivated, as potatoes, onions
celery, poultry villages, fruit planta-
tions, dairies congregated around n
cheese factory or a creamery, focks of
lambs only near good shipping points.
And this special farming is made all
the more possible by excellent facili-
ties for cheap transportation Celerv
is sent all over the south from Indiana
and Michigan; hay goes the same way
thousand miles; onions are sent from
New York and Ohio all over
the country and to foreign
lands; watermelons from Georgia go
all over the north; peaches from
Delaware and Marylard and the earli-
est ones from central Georgia, find
purchasers everywhere; and so it is all
through the list of most important
products. And the time has come
when this method must be followed bv
every farmer who may have the facili-
ties for production or transportation.
There is no risk of OVERRIDING it, the
consumption is always ahead of pro-
duction and always will be in such
cases as require skilled management
The above remarks, extracted from
the Indiana Farmer, though addressed
chiefly to farmers of the northern sec
tion of the country, are replete with
suggestions to farmers of the south
also. Our farmers must select some
''side' crop to which he will give more
than ordinary attention and make it a.
money crop. Some will choose melons,
others Irish potatoes, others cabbages;
some pork, some mutton, some butter,
some beef. many hay; others sugar
cane, others ground peas, and so on.
1t is practical, the thing can be done,
Can it not?

HERE AND THERE.

There is no danger of making too
much manure.
-Profiting by experience is to learn
by past mistakes
-Doas much of the preparatory work
now as possible.
knowing what is to be done, and
how, will save much time.
The objection to breeding poor
horses is the difficulty in finding
market.
When a good orchard can be estab-
lished it is an easy way to make farm
more valuable.
Take into consideration all facts
and circumstances that have any bear
ing or influence on the probable de-
mand and price of the product you are
handling.
Select the best ears of corn for seed.
Do not remove the husks if it can be
avoided, but" fasten the ears together
in punches and hang up in IA dry place
so as to protect from mice. Dampness
is injurious to shed corn, and the ears
saved for seed should be thoroughly
dry before storing.E
The time is coming when root
crops will have larger place in our
agriculture than they now occupy. One
advantage that they have over grain
crops is that they are less liable to
make complete failure from drought,
insects and other causes.
On account of the cheapness of
production, pea-vine hay is largely
used in Louisiana. If properly cured
and not allowed to dry too much, it is
valuable hay, but as the curing is
difficult and requires experience, it
is not recommended as advisa BILE to at
tempt its culture.
The farm without trees, both fruit
and shade, is not at its best The ma
Jority of farms have too few trees and
will not have enough until the owEer
is brought to see the wisdom of having
little nursery of his own for growing
them. This could well be made an adj
junct to every farm, and then good
trees would be easily and cheaply OBJ
tanned and SO would be planted.
In planting ornamental trees about
the home, see if you can not introduce
something new, instead of following
the example of all your neighbors.
Variety of trees adds to the pictur-
esqueness OF landscape, and you can
do something toward it. The cut-leaved
weeping birch is not very much known,
but it is one of the most beautiful and
satisfactory trees Of all for lawn plant,

RUSTIC REMEDIES.

"simples" Which Country Folks Believe
Are Better Than Doctors Stuff.
"When the Adirondack native be-
comes afflicted with any of the numer-
Gus small ills which make mankind
wretched," said the returned summer
visitor, che does not waste much time
on doctors, but goes straight to the
woods or his attic for natures own
remedies. There is one old man whom
l have met with, packbasket on shoul-
der and shears and a rough board stool
in his mittened hands, going after var
row, which, dried, is a standby for
coughs when it has been made into
wicked looking brew. Fir-balsam,
coaxed drop by drop from the 'blisters'
which swell on the balsam fir at moon
fall, is sovereign remedy for lung and
chest complaints. -
Gravel weed by which name they
insult trailing arbutus, is excellent for
the, complaint which gives it it's name:
and bladder root has desirable effect
on the kidneys and neighboring or
gans. Sage tea, containing a little
summer savory, is efficacious for worms
in children, for which belmonia,
STEPPED, is also used. Sunfiower seeds,
stepped strained and sweetened with
molasses, will cure the 'whoop' in
whooping cough. Horseradish leaves
wilted and bound on the face and back
of the neck, will drive away neuralgia,
and a nutmeg, bored, and tied about
the neck, will keep it away. The nut
meg must be renewed about once eyerv
six weeks.
Onions, sliced, pounded, and placed
in a cloth and laid over the affected
part, will draw out Inflammation. A
red onion, halved, and with one part
slightly scooped out and the cup
placed over carbuncle or boil will
speedily remove the pus and has saved
life. red worsted string tied about
the neck will cure and prevent nose
bleed. This last calls for some creduli-
ty one might think, but 1 have seen i.
proved in one or two instances.
There are many more of these SIM
pie remedies in the north woods phar-
macop@ia which the wise ones have at
their fingers ends; and if they are not
more widely used, and money kept in
the overalls of the thrifty native, it is
because a lenient and fortunate fate
presides over the incomes of the Adj
rondack medicos. IN Y. Sun.

Rattlesnake Weed,

In Monterey, as well as Santa Clara
county, there grows a weed called the
rattlesnake weed. 1t is so named from
the story that when rattlesnakes get to
fighting and bite each other this weed,
if eaten by them, will prevent death.
1t grows about six inches tall, has a
red stalk and slender leaves. On the
top of the stalk comes a head of flow
ers, and the seeds of these flowers are
said to be very annoying to one in pass
ing through a mass of them, as they
are furnished with sharp barbs con r
monty called stickers. The early set
tiers who had herds of sheep always
made their herdsmen keep with them n
bottle of strong tea made of rattle
snake weed, and when any of the sheep
were bitten they were drenched with
this tea, which always saved them

SUCCESSFUL FARMING,
1t Means More than Raising Big Crops; 1t
Means the Ratio of Profit.

1t Means More than Raising Big Crops; 1t
Means the Ratio of Profit.
Success includes profits, and there
fore successful farming means more
than growing the crops, live stock, etc,
for which the best prices are realized.
1t takes some foresight to determine
what these are from year to year.
Therefore the successful farmer must
be a good reader, constant reader
and thinker; skilled and practiced in
these so that by his knowledge of the
past conditions he can reason out the
future. The weather predictions for
twenty-four hours in advance are pre-
dicted on the direction the wind is
blowing at given points; it's velocity,
atmospheric pressure, state of the ba-
rometer and thermometer in given To-
calitles. When these conditions were so
many years and times before, such and
such kinds of weather occurred at
this and that point. 1t takes intelli-
gent and patient application to de-
termine these weather futures. And
so it is with the intelligent and read
ing farmer. His papers and literature
bring to him the varied conditions of
production, trade and prices, supply
and demand, in all quarters. He must
study and familiarize himself with all
these, not for day, week or a year.
but constantly all his life, if he hopes
for Esuccess. The battle of life is a
mental one as well as physical. 1t
must be kept up constantly in both
fields to make life successful. Coming
