Farm Notes.


Save everything that will make feed.
Be careful not to let any weeds go to
seed.
Cut oats as soon as the straw begins
to turn.
Wheat can be stacked with very lit
tie curing.
Cultivation can be kept up until the
crop Is safe.
Do not let the timothy and the red
top get toe ripe.
1t is not necessary to thresh oats that
are to be fed out.
Plow up q good patch of nice loamy
soil and sow turnips.
Save all of the fruit in some way.
Wasting is loss Of profit.
II any bay is stacked outside, let II
be timothy, red Top or prairie hay.
At all times the more comfortable
the stock are the better they will grow
II small grain of any kind is to be
stored be sure that the granaries are in
good condition.
If necessary at any time to water
plants remember that one good soaking
is worth a dozen sprinklings.
A little grain or bran fed to the cows
daily will help materially to maintain
a good milk flow.
The sooner land intended to be sown
to wheat Is plowed the better. Plow
deep and then fine the surface.
Plan to sell oVall stock that cannot
be wintered profitably. This means all
that you cannot feed well and shelter
comfortably.
1t is when the pastures begin to fail
that the cows will begin to shrink In
their milk unless something is supplied
that will take the place of good grass.
Cut oats with wheat bran makes a
better feed for the work teams than
corn. 1t IL not so heating and fur.
nishes the elements for bone and
muscle.

How to Roll Water.

There is an art in boiling water which
many even among otherwise good
housewives have not learned. 1t Is to
begin with little water, but always
use enough so as to cover completely
the bottom of the vessel exposed to the
fire. This will boil very quickly. So
soon as water boils all further heat APP
piled to it is wasted. But little more
cool water added will not check the
boiling, as the fire has only to heat that
much additional to the boiling point. In
cold weather the waste of heat does
not amount to so much, though, even
then, to boil kettleful Of water quick
ly and get it to the boiling point is Oft
en- a convenience. But in hot weather
the waste Of fuel, and also of heat, that
is then nuisance, by filling a ketteful
at first, Is n great mistake. A large
amount will boil mucn quicker by be-
ginning with little first.

NEW BICYCLE INVENTIONS.

Chainless BaII.B Bearing, Compound
Crank and Carrier Wheels.
Two inventors. an Englishman and
an American, have recently applied Cor
patents on bicycle improvements which
refer directly to the gearing. The Eng
lishman furnishes compound crapk,
retaining the chain. The American in
vention is one Of the forms of chain

the kind to be placed on the market
next season.
The Englishman claims that his in

Webster Her Coachman.


When Mrs. Sherwood, the author,
who is best known as IN. Il. w. S."
was young girl, she visited Daniel
Webster at Marshfield, with her faith
ar and mother. Mrs. Webster met them
In her carriage, and the little girl was
allowed to sit next Mr.. Webster on the
drivers box. She was elated indeed
when her father put her up there and
whispered in her ear:
Remember this, my daughter, you
ire to drive five miles with Daniel Web
ster as your coachman"
The "coachman" began at once to
make himself agreeable.

Miss Wilson, said he.
This was an additional joy. No one
had ever called her miss Wilson" 1t
made landmark In life. Then he point
ed out Seth Peterson, who was walking
along the road, and who stopped to take
some orders from his fellow fisherman.
"You will eat, to-day, some fish which
Seth and caught this morning" said
Mr.. Webster.
Mary was terrified at the responsible
ties of conversation, but she made a
lucky hit by asking what kinds Of fish
were easiest to catch. He launched
Off on his favorite topic, and talked of
the gamy bass, the reluctant cod and
their fellows.
II suppose" said the little girl, you
enjoy the fish which are. the hardest
to catch. don't you, Mr.. WebsterY'
He looked round at her and laughed.
"You are beginning young. Miss VIII
son." said he. "That is the remark of
a coquette."
At dinner he embarrassed her much
by repeating the remark as a piece of
youthful precocity.

machine, 1t is estimated, will carry 500
pounds. The plan is to load 1t with
half the miners equipment, drag it on
four wheels ten miles or so. Then the
rider will fold up the side wheels, ride
it back as bicycle and bring on the
rest of the load. A sample machine
has already been made and patents
have been applied for. a.

which the syndicate will control, is a

The American machine shows the
sprocket-wheel connected with the
smaller one on the hub of the rear
wheel by a cog-wheel. The middle or
connecting wheel, which acts as sub
stitute for chain, is held in place by
circular support fastened to the
frame. The entire gear works are ball
bearing and are inclosed within an
aluminium case.

Kecn;uu HiIlsides Seeded.

Many of the steepest hillsides ought
to be always kept in forest, sowing the
seed of a new crop when the old is
cleared off. But even moderately steep
hillsides will gully badly when cult
waited. and especially during the winter
and spring, when the surface soil has
been loosened by frosts. Even II the
water does not gully out channels
through the soil, much of the fine, rich
soil at the surface is likely to be wash
ed or blown away. The fact that 1t is
more difficult to keep hillsides fertile
will always give the preference to level
farms for cultivation If they have been
well underdrained. On the other hand,
the hillside makes better pasture than
the level fields below it.--Cultivator.

farmers are not at all niggardly. Most
of what they make over and above ex.
penses goes in better methods of living
which make prosperity for everybody
