"he wise woman may have extreme

cunt. Carrying ones wealth in a

tender a check on any city bank in pay
ment for goods bought in one of the
large stores, even though one is not
personally known to the proprictors
There is always ample opportunity for
them to discover the worth of the
check between the time Of its presen-
tation and the time the goods are sent
home.
To open a bank account it is not
necessary to have much money. Some
banks will receive as small a deposit as
fifty dollars as a beginning. II is neces-
sary for woman opening an account
to be personally known to the cashier
or to have letter of introduction to
him or to the president. Such letter
should be presented during bank hours,
which are usually between ten and
three. 1t is well, also, for the woman
who has bank account to remember
that the institutions of finance close
early on Saturdays. The name, adj
dress and reference of the depositors
will have to be entered in her writing
| on the identification book Should a
- aI h,rh a, i,,a lou, h
| full writing ever be presented, this
| book will be used for comparison.
When this has been done the
deposit is made. Deposits may be
made in bills. checks on drafts,
and when the money is handed
to the receiving teller it is accompanied
by deposit slip ON which the sum de-
posted and the form in which it is pre-
scented are recorded. A pass book, which
| tells the amount of the depositor's
credit, a check book and some deposit
slips are given to her and she is fully
equipped depositor. The pass book
should be sent to the bank at stated
times to be balanced.
The advantages of having bank ac-
count are more than the mere glory OF
the situation. Banks are not SO easily
robbed as feminine bags and bureau
drawers Checks are more convenient
than bills and silver. And, lastly, there
is less temptation to extravaganza
when one has to make out check fol
each item, and when one realizes that
each abstinence from spending swells
the sum to one'n crcdit.-N. Y. journal

Analysis shows it to be a very nutri-
tiaus food, either green or dry. Sor-
ghum is not so rich as Bermuda grass,
Lespedeza and other clovers, still when
we take into consideration its enor-
nous yield, we must esteem it very
highly as forage plant. Treated as
millet it can be cut two or three times
between June and October. An acre
of sorghum planted, treated and fed
properly will make more pork, beef or
milk than an acre of anything else
probably-in the way of an annual.
The following table shows the quail
ity of other forage plants commonly
used in Georgia;

Rutabagas.

We think the rutabaga is not grown
as much as it should be by American
farmers. 1t and mangel wurtzel are
the chief reliance of English farmers
for succulent feed in winter for stock.
We grow corn, and therefore do not
have the same need for roots. OF the
turnip family the quiclx-growing kind
that are sown in July are much more
easily grown than are rutabagas But
the latter are by far the better keepers,
and are more nutritious in proportion
to bulk. The earlier rutabagas are
planted in June the better, as they need
the whole summer to grow in. They
also need good deal of work in keep
ing down weeds and destroying the tur-
nip fiy.-Home and Farm.

Much is said of late about sterile
ing milk before use. Better far to
look more after the health and sur
roundings of the cows that their milk
be free from all Objectionable condi-
tions, in which case no germ-killing
process is called for.-Maine Farmer.
Men who have made money from
breeding and selling dairy stock have
raised their standard of excellence
right along, says an exchange, and
every herd owner should see that his
herd is better this year than it was
last.
The best use to which wood ashes
can be put is on the grass land. Land
that is intended for scarlet clover this
fall will be greatly benefited by wood
ashes. Coal ashes possess but very little
value, but every ounce of wood should
be saved.
1t must be remembered that those
dairyInen who report 300 or $50 pounds
of butter per COW annually have come
up through years of experience. The
novice should make due allowance for
his lack of experience and start in eau
tiously and gradually.
"A new point in favor of the extern
sive growing of peanuts, is that their
tops are good hay when cut at the
right stage, and that the plant excels
even clover in getting nitrogen from

An experiment has lately been tried
of feeding geese with turnips, cut
in small pieces like dice. but less in
size, and put into trough of water;
with this food alone the effect was,
that six geese, each when lean weigh
ing only nine pounds, actually gained
twenty pounds each in about three
weeks fattening.
The advocate of turning cows out
every day for exercise should watch a
good COW in good pasture this sum
mer and see how much exercise, or
rather, how little, she takes. She will
feed far enough to satisfy her appetite,
and then go far enough to find SOM
favorite spot on which to lie down and
ruminate, but no farther will she GO
except to seek for drink.
Cleanliness in the dairy is indis.
pensable if the best results are desired.
Taking this for granted, and without
discussing how those bacteria which
have "a delecterious action on milk de-
velop best where cleanliness is least, il

self that it should contain no part
