FRESH FARM NOTES.

HAVE you provided for soiling crop
this summer?
PUMPKINS are an excellent fall and
winter feed for cattle.
IT is probable that the corn pack
will be considerably reduced the pres
ent season.
WITH good management in most
cases two garden crops can be grown
in one season.
IT is reported that negotiations look
ing to revival of the hog pool under
an Anglo-American combination are
under way.
No PLANT on the farm will respond
more rapidly to good treatment than
the potato. Clean culture is an abso-
lutte necessity.
THE estimated value of last years
corn crop in this country was 1851, 0O0.-
600. The hay was worth $3.50. OO0, 600
and the wheat only S213.000.O ZOO.
If it pays to raise turnips in England
as food for sheep, why cannot it be
done in this country. where the farmer
is not burdened with an enormous
rent?
AFTER all the juice has been extract
ed from the stalks Of the sorghum,
the crushed refuse or bagasse, as it is
termed, forms nutritious food for
cows. by which it is greedily eaten.

FARM ACCIDENTS.



Cannot BE Secured.
While it is as desirable to employ
veterinary surgeon in cases of severe
sickness or dangerous injuries as it is
to employ the family physician at
times, it is we'll to know what to do in
emergency cases." when something
must be done in less time than it
would take to get the regular doctor
to the spot, says a correspondent of
the American Cultivator.
One of these cases is that of choking,
which frequently happens when roots
are fed without having been cut. II
the obstruction is not large and has
passed we'll down, it is often possible
to move it further along by gently
pushing down with a stick. A whip
handle rounded little at the end is
good instrument for this purpose. One
person should hold the animals head.
SO as to bring the mouth and throat in
a straight line, and another should
use the stick, and at the same time
work upon the obstruction from the
outside, rubbing it downward. Push
firmly but gently upon the stick.
Another method is to put stick
about as large as once wrist across the
animals mouth like bride bit, and
tie it fast SO as to oblige it to keep the
mouth open. This will sometimes
cause coughing, SO that the obstruc-
ton will be thrown up, or will facili-
tate breathing until mucus enough
has gathered around it SO that it will
pass downward. If the obstruction is
not far down, the animals mouth may
be kept open by horse shoe, or by
blocks between the jaws. and one with
a small hand can reach down and with
draw it. Unless something is done
soon the animal must choke to death,
and time is of more Importance than
skill ts
Cuts that cause profuse bleeding are
another sort of cases that need at
cured. If the blood comes in jets at
about the interval Of a heart beat, it is
from a artery. and tight bandage be-
tween the wound and body should be
applied. then a stout stick placed be-
low and twisted until the blood flows
but slowly. If the one who put it on
knows enough of the course of the ar
teries to bring the knot directly over
it, it will hasten matters, and this
should be part of the education of a
farmer.
If the blood flows in a continuous
stream put wide bandage directly
over the wound to keep the edges to-
gether, drawing it tightly as can be
done with the hands. A handful of
cotton, or even of green grass, under
the bandage will assist, or one may
hold the edges of the wound together
while another goes for doctor. We
have seen horses life saved in this
way when the leg was badly cut by
the moving machine, and a mans life
saved by the first method when bull
let had cut the artery of the arm above
the elbow. In neither case could a
surgeon have been brought in season.

Cold, Not Iced, Tea.

Those who do not like to use ice as
prodigally as some do in beverages,
and yet like ''cold" tea, will find that
they can have it without the ice. If
you have no ice at all put the amount
of tea required in pitcher in the
morning and over it only enough water
to cover it; let it stand for three or
more hours, and you will find that all
the flavor is extracted from the leaves.
When you wish to serve, pour fresh
water, as cold as can be obtained, upon
the tea, and you will have a delightful
glass of tea, with none of the bitter
ness of boiled" tea about it and sutii-

readily accomplished, without destroy
ing the elasticity of the spring, by
heating it to a red heat just at the
places to be bent. The end of the
raketooth, after being bent, is put into
hole in the gatepost, and strong
staple driven over it to keep it in q
horizontal position. A rope or chain
is fastened into screw ring in the
gate and hooked to the spring. This

ton may be made more or less decided
by placing the screw ring nearer to or
farther from the hinge side of the

be instantly unlocked from the spring

Locusts for Fence Posts,

There is no timber that grows more
quickly. and few that are better for
making fence posts, than the common
locust. If cut in winter, new sprouts
will come from the root, and the Sec
ond growth will be more rapid than
the first, as it will have a larger sys-
tenn of feeding roots to begin with We
know good farmers who grow their
own fence posts. devoting a small
corner of their farm for this purpose,
and it saves them in money more than
they make from most cultivated parts
of their farm, and at less expense.
There is no getting along without
some kind of fencing. and locust posts,
home grown. make the basis on which
Wire fencing of the various kinds may
be strung. The locusts should not be
grown near cultivated ground, as in
blowing their roots will be torn. and
they VIII send up sprouts that will
make trouble in keeping down.-Rural

How a Horse Breathes.

4 psychologist says horse cannot
breathe through its mouth like dog
and other animals. 1t can only breathe
through its nose. The soft palate
forms complete partition between
the mouth and throat, and can only be
elevated. or allow the passage of food
or water backwards, by compression
such as that which occurs in swallow
ing. The passage of air through the
mouth is entirely prevented by the soft
palate. BY plugging horses nose it
may be readily suffocated. 1t is be-
cause breathing can only be performed
through the nasal organs that spacious
open nostrils are considered not only
beautiful. but necessary. for they allow
at times of unusual exertion for the
free passage of large volumes of air
into the overtaxed lungs during respi-

Wool Fat Has a Value.

The sheep is still adding its valuable
contributions to the wealth of human
ity. The last product is a fatty sub
stance called wool fat. derived from
the grease that is skinned from the
securing watts. 1t is used as basis for
the ointments for medical purposes.
and is said to be more readily absorbed
by the skin than any other fat or Oil
known. 1t is able also to adhere to
moist surfaces. which no other un-
guent in present use will do. The
sheep owners of Australia are care

for this purpose.-Rural World.

In the way. A semi-cylindrical piece
of wood is nailed to the upright of the
gate bearing the hinges, and SO placed
that the center of the cylinder would
about coincide with the hinges. A
chain rope is made fast to this block,
and then, by means of hook, is
fastened to a bar which swings from a
spike in the upper railing of the fence
and bears a weight at the lower end.
While this is not SO quick acting as
the other, if nicely made, it is very
neat and quite out of the way. The
quickness of action may be regulated
by an increase or decrease in the
weight, or by fastening the rope to
the bar farther from. or nearer to. the
weighted end.-George H. Shull, in

Rutter Is Good for Athletes.

Men in training would do well to re-
member that. of all fats, butter is the
most easily digested and the most nu-
tritious. Unlike other fatty or oily
substances. butter. OF entering the
stomach becomes emulsified at once,
and is consequently ready for imme.
diate assimilation. Beef, and more
particularly mutton fat does not as
simulate SO readily, and requires a
much greater expenditure of digestive
energy. Too much butter is, of course,
injurious, and is frequently provoc-
alive of bilious disorders; but taken
in moderation, it is an excellent and
nutritious form Of food, and, as such,
should form an indispensable part OF
every weu-arranged dietary.-British

Bookkeeping on the Farm.

Every farmer ought to secure a few
hives OF bees and increase them as
much as possible, is the advice given by
a contemporary. They are laborers
for which no wages are required. and
they board themselves with occasional
assistance from their owner when he
has drawn too freely from their stores.
Each swarm should be doubled every
year, and a few stands taken care OF
quickly develop into large colony.
