REMEDY FOR WIRE WORMS.

These injurious creatures will not
be hurt by any amount OF wood ashes.
The best thing to be done-if it is
possible--is to get quantity Of gas
lime from gas works and apply twen-
ty bushels to the acre ON the land as
soon as plowed, and leave it..fallow for
a summer, plowing and crows plowing
it several times. THIS will both
smother and starve the wire worms.

WARNING ABOUT CANNED GOODS.

WARMING ABOUT CANNED GOODS.
In buying tin canned vegetables or
fruits those only should be selected
that have slight depression in the
end of the can. This by experts is ac-
cepted as proof that the contents of
the can are in a proper condition. II
the end of the can is raised or bulged.
reject it, us that is proof that the
contents of the can were not heated
sufficiently at the time Of sealing, or
that in the past or present they have
fermented. II cans are ordered by the
dozen, the member of the household
who inspects the supplies should re-
turn all cans having such an appear
ance. Lead poisoning is not to be
feared from good brands of timed
goods if the contents of the cans are
emptied as soon as opened into earth
enware or glass. When glass jars are
used, keep the fruit or vegetables in
them from contact with tho rubber
band. Though there is little danger
from their contact, there have, it is
said, been a few cases in which pois-
oning is thought to have been caused
by chemical changes in the rubber
when in touch with acid.-New York

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.


He who would enjoy the fruit must
plant the tree.
Berries cannot be grown and mar
keted as easily rs wheat, corn and
potatoes.
The growers of berries for market
should realize that ordinary farm
methods are not sufficient.
Berry growing, like market garden.
ing, requires the greatest concentra-
tion of good soil, labor and thought.
The way to get peaches is to plant
peach pits and keep planting. Seed.
ling peaches can be grown in sheltered
places on almost any farm.
Every farmer who has an orchard of
any size should also own small hand
press. 1t will save trip to the large
press quite frequently, save cash and
enable the owner to work up the crop
at odd times.
Strainjng the cream just before
churning should be regarded ms me-
cessary precaution, for if there is any
dirt in cream it will become incorpor-
ated with the butter instead of passing
off in the buttermilk.
Cows must have exercise in winter.
The habit of keeping milch COWS tied
up all the time, even watering them
in their stalls, together with bad air
and lack of sunshine, is responsible
for much tuberculosis.
More bees are being lost on account
OF bad food, or none at all, than from
all other causes combined, especially
in winter; tor there is no factor so
important as the matter Of food, and
it is one often neglected.
A little attention each year greatly
improves the appearance of the or.
chard, and the work can be done with
a greater economy in this way than by
permitting it to accumulate for several
years and then doing it all at once.
At dairy in Berlin, famous for the
purity of its milk, the milk is strained
through wire sieve with cloth, on
which rests deep layer of fine sand.
Before the sieve is again used, the
sand IS put in hot oven to destroy
any possible germs.
What farmers are looking for to-day
is something that will yield an income
outside of their farms. Bees would
make quite an addition to the income
of the farmer, and this would be re.
ceived from what is going to waste
every year.
For nursery stock and fruit trees on
good land, wood ashes have been
found much superior to barnyard ma.
nure. An orchardist scattered a largo
amount of ashes over q piece of land
many years ago, and it still retains the
vigor impaired.
A little common soda should be
added to the skim milk before feeding
the calves. 1t is claimed that soda
prevents the formation of the rubber
like curd in the stomach that is SO Of
ten found on examination of calves
that have died OF the dreaded calf dis
ease.
A possible way to test butter is to
get clean piece OF white paper,
smear it with the suspected article and
set it on fire. If the butter is good,
the smell OF the burning will be de.
cidedly pleasant; but il there is artl-
fetal animal fat in the composition,
there is no mistake in the tallowy
odor.
It is always advisable to make a
change of feed occasionally for the
COW in winter. 1t gives her increased
appetite. Ii you feed twice day,
stop it; but il You house your COWS
on stormy days, in place Of letting
them run in stalk field, then give
something to eat at neon. Above all
be regular in fee ling.

CHICAGO, Nov. 8.-Chairman w. D.
Bynum, of the national committee of

following statement:
1t is too early for the sound money demo-
Gratis to decide upon course Of action for the
future. We shall have to await developments.
While the policy Of the government, so far as
the standard is involved. has been settled, the
details OF sound financial system yet remain
to be accomplished. The present defenseless
condition Of the treasury must be remedied
before We can hope for lasting prosperity, and
this will be difficult task, as some radical
changes will be necessary.
A reunion OF the forces of the democratic
party can only be had on the platform Of the
Indianapolis convention: the Chicago platform
was o radical departure from the cherished
principles Of the party and those who continue
to adhere to 1t will find themselves swallowed
up by the populists. / am sure our efforts have
materially contributed to the result. No one

HORSES LOOKING UP AGAIN.
The Demand is Said to be Increasing In
Europe.
Mules, Too. Are Wanted at Better
Prices-The Supply of Both
Has Run Low.

It begins to look as if the demand for
horses and mules is increasing, after q
couple of years stagnation. Referring
to this subject, the Woodland Mali
says the presence of several horse buy
ers in Yolo County has greatly en-
couraged local stock raisers. There is
a keen demand for roadsters and big
draft animals, and the supply is not
equal to the demand. Last spring fully
20 per cent. of the farmers of Yolo
County declined to breed their brood
mares, feeling that the foals would be a
dead loss, but next season most of the
doubtful ones will breed extensively.
Scrub horses are wanted nowhere, SO
the practice of paying out money for
the get of dogs viii be abandoned in
Yolo County.
The mule market, too, is LOOKING up.
Within the past year the farmers have
been so discouraged that they gave away
jacks that cost them hundreds of dol
lars, and one Yolo man presented to n
neighbor two blooded jennies, not wish :
ing to produce jacks that he could not
sell First-class mules, too, are wanted
not those that have been worked to
death, but big, sound and intelligent
animals. H. S. Hogoboom of Wood
land has received marked copy of the
Horse Review" which contains an
item that ought to interest and imbue
with confidence every stock raiser in
this part of the State. Here it is:
"A. D. Cronk, of the firm of Crandall
& Co., East Buffalo, recently returned
from London, Eng, where he closed
the largest order for horses ever made
by an American. He sold 5000 horses
to the cab and bus companies of the
great city for $1.000,000. The horses
are to be shipped during the present
new year. The bus horses are to be 1915
hands high, weigh from l 300 to ], $50,
and from to years old, with plenty
Of bone and muscle, short back and
strong. The cab horses must be 10 to
1919 hands, weigh 900 to 1000, to Z
years old, well bred and possess some
speed.
During the past year, Crandan &
Co. have sold 10000 horses, hence the
extra 5000 order will not give them any
worry. The East Buffalo horse market,
comprising seven firms in the business,
with barns covering acres, is now one
of the largest in the world and has been
in existence but ten years. A. 3. Gran
dali. deceased, was father of the enter
prise and Auctioneer Mccain sold the
first consignment of horses, about thirty
head. In the beginning they thought
that was doing big business. During
the present year it is proposed to hold
daily sales at auction at East Buffalo. -
America is now looking to Europe for
her market, and is meeting with much
encouragement. Jasper Paulsen of
Santa Clara recently sold the hand

TO help LOCAL INTERESTS.
The Chamber Of Commerce Considers
Several Subjects.
Chief Among Them is That of the
Culture of Beets for the Manu-
facture of Sugar.

The Chamber of Commerce met yes
terday in special executive session to
consider and discuss several matters
of public interest and Importance to
Central and Northern California
One of these was a communication
from the Federated Trades Council of
this city asking the cooperation of the
chamber with their organization with
a view to protecting agriculture, as
represented in the bill introduced in
Congress by Hon. Grove L. Johnson.
A committee of three was appointed
by President SteffenS, consisting of J..
O. Coleman, L. L. Lewis and T. L. En-
right, to confer with the councils rep
resentatives and arrange for any line
of action deemed expedient for the pur-
pose of obtaining an expression of the
public at meeting, as was suggested.
The matter of the beet sugar indus
try was also considered, as presented
by E. r. Hamilton in pamphlet form,
and the President was appointed to
confer with Colonel Hamilton, with a
view to preparing a plan to build up
in this vicinity this great and profitable
industry that has in other parts Of the
State proved so successful.
Claus Spreckels, the sugar king, says
the beet sugar industry is one of the
means by which the State will become
universally prosperous, and is willing
to add to his investments in this line
by establishing beet sugar factories for
the purpose of working up the beet
crops. He says the farmer who helps
the manufacturer helps himself and
the whole community as well, and adj
mits-as was demonstrated in this
vicinity some years ago-that the sugar
beet ground in this vicinity produced
a larger percentage of saccharine mat
ter than those of any other portion Of
the United States.
Now, with improved machinery and
good management, success would at
tend the culture of sugar beetS.
