The Time to Fish.

There is time to fish, outside OF tt
time prescribed by the game laws. The
game laws regulate the days, but not the
hours, and the hours are important. The
fish like cool water, and cool water iE
deep. Therefore, when. the sun begins
to rise and to burn, the fish leave the
shadows, not to return until the day be-
gins to cool. It more profitable for the
angler, therefore, to fish prior to seven or
eight in the morning and after five in the
afternoon on clear days. These hours,
of course, vary with conditions and sea-
sons. Almost any time brings good re-
suits to the sensible fisherman, who goes
to one of the well-stocked lakes on the
Saint Paul & Duluth Railroad, which is
the anglers favorite line. Forest, Chisa-
90, Rush-apy of these lakes afford salts

the popular route to and between st.

They require a little less of this mix

growth as with the whole mills

little over a gallon of skimmilk per

a pound of ground Aaxseed. A Ike
amount of flaxseed boiled or soaked,
making it soft and in the form Of
Cruel, would answer as well. That
amount furnished nearly the same
quantity of oily matter us ayerasr

amount of hnxseed added to the milk
will usually cause "scours' in calves

Three-year-old fruit trees may be
easily transplanted in this way First,
the holes are to be dug, that the roots
may he covered without any more ex-
posure than necessary Some rich
soil or compost is prepared and placed
by the holes. Then the trees are dug
mp and the roots are smoothly cut and
trimmed, as little disturbance of them
as possible being made. The holes
should be as large as possible to af-
ford room for the roots, spread in a
natural position. They are then COW
cred with the rich soil, and this is
worked well between the fibcrs and
made compact. The rest of the soil
is then thrown on this, and is well
trampled down. If rain falls in a
few days, no water will be needed !;
otherwise, it will be necessary to give

KEEPING POULTRY.

1t has been proven that with proper
nourishment and food hens can be in
duced to lay almost continuously up
TO the usual number natural to each.
This number is from 100 to 1875 per
year If, then, by proper feeding
and housing, hens can be induced to
lay in the winter, when the price of
eggs is high, the profit is proportions
ately greater. One writer SAYS he be-
gan business with seven scrub hens.
and his wife was the only person who
knew how to take care Of them. With
her care the result was so encouraging
that they went into business on n
larger scale Apropos of pure
breeds, it may be well to observe that
this writer says he had one scrub

if one wishes to sell eggs, that infer

KEEP THE PICS GROWING.

The most important point in grow
ing hogs for profit, even when they
are to be fattened early, is to secure a
strong, vigorous frame. That the fat
tening process should not begin too
early is well understood by practical
farmers. Heavy feeding on corn will
stunt young pig even more quickly
han will insutliciency of food. But
1t Is almost equally important not to
go to the other extreme. A pig that
for days and weeks has had insufficient
food has by that fact become inclpa.
BILE Of properly digesting large guam

organs, is strengthened by appropriate
exercise AMI weakened when it 10
either overloaded or has too little to
do. There is no harm in giving young
pigs penty to eat, provided it is the
right kind of food for growth, with
comparatively little OF fat-forming
material in its composition. The pig

is excellent for growth, and for the
first day or two, while weak, the pig
takes its food in small Quantities and

the bayonets belonging to the ma

cially while they are giving milk.
First try applying a liniment made Of
equal parts Of sweet oil and spirits of

this every evening after milking, and
if the warts do not disappear after a
week or ton days, go to the druggists
and procure some glacial Rcetic acid
and with feather or brush touch the
surface of the warts once n day. Be
careful not to apply 50 much that it

several shot passed clean through the

Gently returned. Tho city is located
In the mountains, eight miles from the

reason but few foreign people have

Catocce are found the Mexican people in

tend in all directions, and thous ands OF
dollars have been expended on the

and down the mountains often at an
angle Of 40 degrees, making the use Of
wnee.e ed vehicles impossible. All
transportation is done by the furro5
or by the Cargedores, who are able to
carry great weights on their backs,
suspended by bands from around their

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Old, dry corn makes the hardest
pork.
In clay soil do not set trees too
deep.
1t takes a good butter COW to make
the best cheese COW.
Money paid for old cows is wasted.
Buy young cows or none.
Keep salt, ashes and copperas where
the hogs can help themselves daily.
No pasture Is profitable which take,
three or four acres to support COW
If the bees are restless give more
air and water, and sweep up the dead
ones.
1t is not what is eaten but what is
digested and assimilated that benefits
the stock.
1t is the comfortable COW which fills
the pail with milk and The milk with
butter fat.
All young animals should be kept
growing rapidly in size, strength, bone
and sinew.
Set out new bed of strawberries as
early as you can, before the hot, dry
weather comes.
A remedy for a lice-infested hem
house is burning sulphur in 1t. The
house must be tight and all yentilators
closed.
Daniel D. Herr of Penn, says that
there is no more trouble in raising
plums than other fruits, if the Japa-
nese are planted, or the trees sprayed.
There Is no fodder crop in the world
that will produce so much with so little
expense MS corn. 1t is easily culti-
waited, and will keep more stock to the
acre than anything else.
Fruit should not, on the farm at
least, be considered a luxury, but
rather an essential and healthful arti-
Gle of food, and every family should
have an abundant supply all through
the year.
Perhaps you have not been brought
up to let the hogs have grass or
clover pasture, but it pays. Look in
to it this winter and decide to do what
is best for the purse, whether it ac-
cords with the antique sentiment or
not.
Don't forget to SOW something for
the bees to work on. You can't ex-
pect good crops of fruit without bees,
and your bees will never be profitable
unless you give them an abundance of
honey-making material to work on at
various seasons of the year.
For swine weak in hind quarters,
evidently with kidneys affected, give n
dose of epson salts every three days
for three times. Give small pigs two
drops tincture nux vomica in feed
three times daily. Larger pigs will
take more safely. If too fat, reduce
the feed
Clean stalls are the best preventives
against the spread of diseases. No
amount of medicine will avail if the
stalls are filthy. Dampness is also n
source of disease, to prevent which
plenty of sunlight and air should enter
the stables and fresh absorbent ma
terial used freely.
With all classes of stock, whenever
4,n animal is overfcd there is not only
I waste of feed, but in a majority of
cases, the animal Will not do as we'll
as with more careful management;
while, if the ration is stinted there
is loss of the feed and of the gain
that might have been realized
Look over the fox and count them.
You may find that about half the

what has become Of them. Possibly
rats, hawks, or even tile pet cat had
something to do with the loss. See if

METHODS OF TRAINING GRAPES.

Many lunches of grapes, on
vines trained to stakes, become en-
tangled, and it is very difficult to har-
vest them without cutting them to
pieces. Experiments at the Illinois
station by G w. McCluer proved that
some varieties, especially the strong
growers, yield decidedly more when
on trellis than when on stakes, and
it is much easier to keep them under
control and to gather the fruit
Moore's Early did best on a three wire
horizontal trellis; next on a single
wire; next on Il covered trellis, and
poorest on stakes. Ives Seeding
seemed to do little better on the up-
right trellis; next better on the hori-
zontal trellis; next on the single wire ;
next under cover, and poorest on
stakes, Delaware did about equally
well on the upright and on the hori-
zontal trellis. The Concord did best
on the horizontal trellis. The four
varieties, as It whole, did best on the
three-wire horizontal trellis, though
there was not much difference on the
upright three-wire trellis, except in
the case of the Concord The vines
on stakes uniformly made the poore st
growth and yielded the least. The
grapes on the covered trellis rotted
less than those on an uncovered row
beside them, but they yielded less
from the failure of fruit to set. A
trellis should be high enough that the
fruit may be easily gathered, as the
punches all hang down and are in
plain sight from below. American
