Healing Without Medicine

Some of the strangest and most mar
velous cures of crippled, deaf and sick
people is being done in public at Music
hall every afternoon at go o'clock.
Yesterday afternoon one man, who had
been deaf for over twenty years, was
cured so that he could easily hear the
ticking of a watch. Another, an old man,
who came there on crutches, all crippled
up from paralytic rheumatism, after
treatment he threw his crutches away
and walked home without them. Such
cures do indeed seem miraculous, but
cures even more remarkable than these
may be seen almost any day by going to
the hall The lectures and healing COM
mences sharp at 2.SO o'clock. Admission
to the hall is free.

HORSE WOULD NOT RUN.
Race Scene in Drama Kentucky Spoiled
by Horses Obstinacy.

py HOiSc OpStinacy.
Kentucky" racing drama in four
acts, was given at the rockingham last
evening in tame and spiritless way
The third act is a scene on the Lex
ington race track, but the horse that
was to run to victory and save the
hero and his money, insisted on turning
round on the stage instead of going
straight ahead, and it required the
hardest kind of work to pull the horse
up a winner.
1t was done, however, and the hero
and the drama saved. The cast was
poor and the play will not stand dis
section. The race, of course, was spoiled
by the obstinacy of the horse.

Fail 81 Harvesting.

The green tomatoes can be work

ways. Those reasonably well ma
tured and partly ripe may be saved
by pulling up the vines and hang
ing them, top down, in the cellar or
any place where they are safe from
frost.
Irish potatoes will stand a light
frost, hut should always be dug be-
fore there is a hard frost or a light
freeze. While there is no advant-
age in storing them away until
cool weather there is considerable
risk in leaving them in the ground.
The guilty of potatoes is easily in
jured by being left exposed to the
sun, hence the better plan is to pick
them up as fast as they are dug,
putting them in boxes or baskets
for convenience in handling. 1t is
best to sort them as they are picked
up. The work can be done better
then than at any other time. Those
intended for long keeping should
be handled carefully, SO as not to

all ducks.
Sweet oil is good for Group if
given in season.
Get rid Of the surplus cockerels
before cold weather.
Onions and cabbage leaves chop
ped fine together make good poul-
try feed.
1t is only in rare cases that it
will be best to keep hen after her
second seasons laying.
One of the best feeds for fatten-
ing fowls is cornmeal mixed with
boiling hot milk, and allowed to
cool before feeding.
As soon as the weather will per-
NIT, it will be more profitable
to send the poultry to market dress
ed rather than alive.
The fat forming elements are in
corn, buckwheat and rice. The
feather producing foods are meat,
wheat, bran and milk.
AS yet there is no breed that lays
eggs of uniform color. Some lay
dark eggs as compared with others,
but none will be uniform.
AS the nights become longer, it
is quite an quite an item to give
the first feed in the morning as the
fowls fly down from the roosts.
Unwholesome food is a serious
cause of disease, whether it be food
that is unsuited to the season or
that which is unsuited to the fowl.
Irregular feeding often causes
arrangement of the digestive or
gans, and in this way is responsible
for some of the ills that affect poul-
try.
Separated early and raised by
themselves, pullets are worth at
least a forth more for breeders than
if they are allowed to run with the
cockerels.
Hens should be kept in good,
thrifty condition, but not fat, and
a good variety of sound grain
should be supplied in order to Sc
cure this condition.
Bran and small potatoes boiled,
mashed and we'll mixed together
make an excellent warm meal for
the fowls breakfast from this time
on through the Winter.
Gravel, broken crockery or some
other material like this for grit is
essential to the health OF poultry
at all times. If the soil does not
contain them they must be sup
piled.
Scaly legs are caused by small
parasite that buries itself under
the scales of the legs and causes an
enlarged growth. An application
of kerosene oil once or twice will
cure it.
Turkeyf will lose about one-tenth
in dressing. In determining wheth-
er it is best to sell alive or dressed
the difference in price should al
ways be considered. If cared for
properly the feathers will always
pay for the work of dressing tur-
keys, ducks or geese.

FARM Notes.
Sowing wheat.

Wheat should be sown in good
season in the Fall, SO that the plants
can make good start to grow be-
fore cold weather sets in. Plants of
all kinds will stand the Winter
much better if they have had good
opportunity to get we'll established
in good season before cold weather.
One important item in growing a
good corp of wheat is good seed.
The difference in cost between good
and poor seed is SO small that it is
bad economy to use anything but
the best. If the crop grown on the
farm was not of good quality, buy
enough for seed. Under present con-
ditions of wheat growing every ad
vantage must be taken to secure not
only the best yield, but the best
quality. Good seed is necessary to
this.
Thorough preparation of the soil
is another item in the growing of
good wheat. 1t will pay to harrow
and drag or roll until this condition
is secured. tbs often the case that
the last narrowing pays the best
profit, for thereason that it fines the
soil the most. By thorough pre-
paration of the soil a much better
and quicker termination of the seed
can be secured and a more vigorous
growth of the plants be made.
The condition of the soil and the
season must largely determine the
time of sowing. Usually it will be
best to SOW little early rather than
little late. The soil should be in
good filth, with moisture enough to
induce a quick termination. 1t is
usually better to delay the seeding
until this condition can be secured,
rather than to SOW earlier, when it
is evident that the conditions are
unfavorable. The quantity of seed
must be determined somewhat by
the condition of the soil and the time
of sowing, as well as by the quality
of the seed. "a
With good seed sown in good sea-
son on properly prepared land, five
pecks of seed to the acre is usually
enough. But if the seed is not of
the best quality, the soil not prepar-
ed in proper condition, and if the
seeding is delayed until late it may
be necessary to sow as much as
seven pecks. The margin between
these may be varied according to
the conditions under which the seed
ing is done.
When the soil is not rich and
there is not enough animal manure
to make it so. it will often be a good
plan to use some commercial fert;l-
izer in order to increase the yield.
This can be applied when the seed
is sown. If a drill is used fertili-
ger attachment affords the best
means of applying. The fertilizer
may also be applied by hand broad
cast, taking care to scatter as evenly
as possible. This should be done
before the seed is sown, 80 that the
fertilizer may be worked into the
soil with the seed.
