The Horn Fly.

Professor Plumb of the Purdue Ex-
pertinent Station, Indiana, has recently
issued bulletin on this subject which
contains suggestions that dairymen
ought to heed. He says:
AT this season of the year cattle are
suffering from the persistent biting of
the horn fly. This fly, which is
smaller than the house fly, congregates
in colonies about the base of the horns,
along up the back and sides, at tender
points about the tanks and udder and
on the belly. This fly sucks blood from
cattle and so irritates them as no doubt
to retard the laying on of flesh with
beef cattle and the production of milk
by mich cows. Many substances have
been recommended to keep away the
flies. The Mississippi Experiment
Station recommends two parts of cot
tonsf"d oil or fish oil, and one part of
pin. ar. This station applied this
mixture to $50 heads at a total cost for
material of 81 20. Kerosene emulsion
has also been used, spraying it over the
cattle with knapsack sprayer. The
flies are killed by the emulsion if it
touches them. The emulsion may be
made by mixing at the rate of one pint
of soft soap Cor one-fourth pound of
hard soap dissolved in boiling water)
and one pint of kerosene in fifteen

Good Mixers,

Almost anybody can milk after a
fashion, but really good mixers are
not so plenty as they might be. A
good mixer is patient and gentle of
touch-not only incapable of lifting a
mllklng'stool at COW, but wise
enough and thoughtful enough never
to show any irritability or harshness of
manner that might excite or disturb a
nervous animal. Milking should be
done as rapidly as possible without
worry; it should be done thoroughly
to the last drop. Otherwise, little
milk, carelessly or unintentionally left
in the udder, will begin the work of
drying off the cow Milking should
be done regularly, beginning at the
same hour, and the mixer should 60
through his stint of cows in the same
order, thus making it easier and less
disturbing for the cow that from habit
knows when to expect her turn. To
the good mixer cleanliness is indeed
next to godliness. The hands should
be clean, the clothing clean and the
skin and udders of the COW should be
kept clean. HANDWRITING cows are
much less valuable than their yield or
test would at first blush seem to indi-
cate. They require more time. Once
in while this might be endured, but
when the milking is task that recurs
regularly twice a day for 300 days in
the year, it becomes an important
item. 1t is hard to milk them with the
rapidity that good milking requires,
and it is difficult, too, to milk them as
clean as the maintenance of the milk
flow requires, and bard-milkers are
much more liable, other things being
equal, to fall off in a milk-how and dry
off early. They become nervous, too,
as rule, and very frequently develop
into kickers. They are not, perhaps,
to blame for this. The milking dis
turbs them and makes them irritable,
and they naturally come to resent any
thing that irritates them. Their irri-
tation reacts, too, upon the person who
does the milking, and he in turn is
liable to be less valuable as q mixer
because less patient and gentle. Good
milking bears so important relation
to the best results which constitute
profit, as compared with results not
quite so good, that it is faculty which
every one who has to handle cows
should cultivate. There is more in the
cheerful, good. humored, picturesque
milkmaid idea than mere poetry. The
cheerful, wholesome, womanly milk
maid is, as a rule, much more likely to
harmonize with the disposition of
good milk cow than is the ruder and
less patient farm hand.-Iowa Home

AGRICULTURAL.
My Grandfather's Orchard.

My grandfather's orchard All, would could see IT
AS when in my childhood climbed its dear trees
And tasted its treasures so fragrant and luscious,
And fitted each fancy to certainly please.
In springtime its branches with flowers were laden,
And promised each palate exactly to suit
When old Time had wrought, with his wonderful
magic,
The strange transformation from flower to fruit
The yellow June Eatngs so mellow and juicy,
The Redstreaks, so pungently acid, for pies,
Seek-no-furthers and Russets and Pearmains and
Greetings,
Spice sweetings and Spies l in memory prize
Each name calls up visions both pleasant and ten
der,
OF scenes that forever have passed from my sight,
of talr summer days and long evenings of winter,
OF tasks done by day and frolics by night,
In autumn we gathered the apples with gladness,
And stored them in barrels and boxes away
We buried teeth in their fresh Juicy crispness
And thought the fruit harvest was nothing but
play.
Dear trees That they loved us we never could
doubt it
They ministered both to our fancies and needs
Their beauty reioiced us we ate of their apples,
Our fortunes we told with the parings and seeds.
Hesperides' gardens could not have been farer,
Nor sweeter to taste their famed apples of gold
Fond love grants a charm to whatever it touches
That safe from Times whitening breath doth en-.
fold
So grows in my heart my loved grandfather's or
chard,
with blossoms and fruits ever fragrant and CAV
While birds IN the branches are caroling sweetly,
And beneath them are children forever at play.

pints of water, thoroughly whipped and
churncd together. AT the Indiana Ex-
pertinent Station we have tried differ
ent substances to keep away the flies.
None Of these was effective over two
or three days. We have secured salts
factory results by using a quart of fish
oil, in which was mixed about two
tablespoonfuls of crude carbolic acid.
Fish oil is sixty cents per gallon in
Lafayette. These liquids are applied
on the body with fiat paint-brush
about four inches wide. Fish oil is ee-
pecially disagreeable to flies, and is
probably largely used in the special
preparations sold at high prices.
There is one objection to using any
form of tar, in that it makes the hair
sticky, which accumulates dirt and so
gives it bad appearance. 1t is well to
break up the manure in pasture when
ever possible, as the flies deposit their
eggs in it, from which the young are
developed. If the manure is gathered
up or broken to pieces within day or
so, and if the remedies to keep off the
flies are applied to cattle, the insects
will disappear"

Handling MILK Before IL Reaches the
Creamery.


The so-called animal odor of milk.
says a writer in the Pacific Coast
Ddtryman, is in large part absorbed
from the air of the milking-place.
Hence the barn should be thoroughly
aired every day while the COWS are at
pasture, and should be kept well venti-
lated at all times. A stuffy, foul-smell-
ing milking-place cannot turn out pure
milk. The reason for this is not far
to seek. The air Of barn contains
millions of bacteria of many kinds.
Some of these kinds are desirable, in
fact necessary, in milk for butter-and-
cheese-making; but others are iniu-
rious. The bacteria that are dominant
in barn filth are usually of species that
do much damage when they get into
milk in anything like large quantities.
The milk is much less liable to be con-
taminated in well-aired barn than in
one full of foul-smelling air that has
been kept shut up in the barn several
hours. Another fruitful source of milk
contamination is in the dust raised in
feeding, especially from hay. Every
particle of this dust that gets into The
milk-pail Injuries the quality of the
milk by introducing undesirable kinds
OF bacteria. Hay should therefore al
ways be given after milking. In fact,
1t would be better for the quality of
the milk to accustom the COWS to being
MIXED before any feed is given, be-
cause there would be less dust in the
barn air while milking. But probably
the most fruitful source of CONTAINING
ton is from dry particles of dirt drop
ping into the milk from The body ce
the COW and the persoA of the mixer.
1t is astonishing to sec the amount of
dirt that settles 1t the bottom of the
cans. ln drinking milk that has stood
a lew minutes in glass one always
finds Considerable dirt in the bottom.
Now, when it is remembered that for
every particle Of dirt, large enough to
be visible, there are probably thou
sand present too small to be seen, and
that every one of these pieces of dirt is
teeming with bacteria, many of which
are positively harmful, the necessity
for care in handling the milk is APP
parent.

The Business Depression,

On every hand one hears of the evils
resulting from the present political
agitation. The hard times are by nc
means confined to farmers. Manufac,
turers, working-men, aud all classes, ex.
cept the very rich, feel the disturbed
condition of affairs; and even they
many of them, are sharing in the gen.
eral sense of insecurity. Really, all
that the nomination of Bryan has done
has been to make business worse, to
unsettle everything secular. One of
the most powerful arguments against
his candidacy is this one fact: If it
could be known now that Mckinley
would certainly be elected, confidence
would be restored, the times would i'm
medlately begin to improve, and pros
perity would undoubtedly return. II it
was certainly known that Bryan was TO
be elected, there would surely occur a
terrible panic. Still, all will hope for
the best. In this terribly unsettled
time the farmers are really well off.
Other people may not have opportun-
lty to earn food and shelter, but the
farmer is in q poor way who cannot get
enough to eat--and most farmers have
decent houses, and can keep their fam
lilies comfortably clothed. Even the
mortgaged farmer can usually keep
along, even when he cannot pay his in
terest-fOr mortgage-holders are shy of
foreclosing on farms which would not
bring half what they were mortgaged
for. Most farmers can keep along in
some Way. Manufacturers are differ
emily situated. They have large or
small number of buildings and more or
less machinery, and, in times like these,
difficult problems confront them. To
stop work means, in most cases, great
loss to themsel' es and their help, while
to 60 on making goods is extremely
hazardous. H. is indeed sad state of
affairs when nearly all lines of business
are more or less paralyzed by the I'M
certainty, doubt and fear which exist
ing conditions have brought about.
But in it all the farmer is pretty sure to
be able to keep his work going, and he
is saved from much of the care and
anxiety which weigh down those en-
gagged in other occupations. 1t seems
certain that from now until election
there will be many days of darkness for
nearly all business men. The farmer
who owns his farm and is out of debt is
vastly better off than the great major
ity of city people. The farmer who is
in debt, and is finding it next to i'm
possible to get on, is seldom worse off
than thousands of hitherto prosperous
business men. 1t seems as though the
blight which has been shadowing the
farmers has fallen upon nearly all
other classes. 1t is not pleasant for
men to contemplate the future, but the
prosperity of the South and West can
not be promoted by destroying the
prosperity of eastern cities.

Change in Business.

]. G.. Froehlich, merchant tailor, who
has been in business in Reynoldsville
six years, sold his establishment to A..
z. Snyder and ]. o. Johns, two young
men of Brookville, last week. The new
firm will be known as Snyder & Johns.
These young men understand the tailor
ing business, both having worked at the
trade sometime, so there is no doubt
but that they will keep up the reputa-
tion of the establishment they have
purchased and give good satisfaction to
their patrons. Mr.. Froehlich is first
class workman and also hard worker,
He has attended strictly to business
during his stay in this place. He has
not yet decided where he will locate in
the future. He will remain In Reyn
oldsville several months, and perhaps
longer, to get some business affairs set
tied. Mr.. Froehlich has made many
friends here who win be sorry to SET
| him leave the place.

Two Cases of Assault.

There were two assault and battery
cases tried before Squire w. L. Johns
tons tribunal in West Reynoldsville last
Friday forenoon. the defendants and
plaintiffs being Italians, and the fracas
occurred at Big Soldier on Sunday
afternoon, Sept. 9th. Dominick CHA
relic charged Dominick Cartardo and
Frank Leo for unlawfully assaulting
him with revolver and hand ak with
intent to kill, and that they did injure
and use him roughly. Frank Poloski
brought charges against Frank Leo for
assault and battery, which occurred at
the same time and place where the first
mentioned assault took place, Big
Soldier, Sunday, Sept. 9Th. The de-
PENDANTS in both cases have been bound
over to the December term of court.
1t is not an unfrequent thing for the
Italians to have cloud time" at Big
Soldier on Sunday. The row, of which
the two assault cases are the outcome,
occurred near the school house where
Rev. ]. G. McEntire, of West Reynolds
vile, was holding religious services.
