Crooked MoIdboards For Plows.

An Ohio Farmer in a communication
to National Stockman writes:
The other day was watching the
effect of land roller in field, part of
which had been broken with pillow
that had crooked moldboard and part
with plow having straight mold
board The ground was broken when
dry and hard, but the crooked mold
board so crushed and ground the soil
while turning it that the roller left ii
in quite little better condition than
that which was wedged over with a
straight moldboard The latter draws
the easier, but it pulverizes less. The
more crooked the moldboard the more
crushing the soil gets while being
broken.

A disgusting exhibition and one calling
for action by the officers of the law was
seen few days ago in the sire cts of
neighboring town. A man was driving
beautiful little horse that was plainly very
spirited and nervous. The animal was
wet with sweat showed signs of rough
treatment When it saw the electric car it
fairly trembled with fear. Under the
vicious cuts OF the whip its frantic terror
was pitiable. 1t reared and plunged final
ly throwing itself, but nothing was broken.
The colt was driven by the car all right
but its owner was not satisfied and attempt
ed to drive around it again, and as it stood
trembling and painting, its head checked
away beyond reason, half strangled and
half blinded. its sides smarting from the
whip, its knees bruised and bleeding from
its falls, it presented spec acle that made
the heart ache. Yet his owner will prob
ably wonder why his colt jumps at the cars
when he sees them every day, and consider
himself an abused man if anybody COM
plains. --1Idfne Farmer.

A Significant Statement.

Col. J c. Woolley, in his speech at the
Neal Dow banquet in Boston, quotes the
following address of the presiding officer
of the Ohio Liquor League, at its annual
meeting The success of our business is
dependent largely upon the creation of
appetite for drink.
Men who drink liquor, like others, will
die, and if there is no new appetite created
our counters will be empty,s as we'll be our
Golfers. Our children will go hungry, or
we must change our business to some other
more remunerative.
"The open field for the creation of this
appetite is amoung the boys. After men
have grown and their habits are formed,
they rarely ever change in this regard 1t
will be needful, therefore, that missionary
work be done among the boys, and |
make the suggestion, gentlemen, that
Nickcks expended in treats to the boys now
will return in dollars to your tills after the
appetite has been formed
above all things, create appetite

Farmers Calendar.

Now is the tine to prepare for winter.
Harvest all the vegetables early in the
month. See that the farm buildings are
in good order, no loose clapboards or
shingles left to blow off, and no broken
windows to let in the cold; and do not
forget to make the fruit and vegetable
cellars tight and frost-proof The water
pipes must be carefully looked over to see
that they are well protected from the frost,
for it is very annoying, as well as expen-
sive, to have them freeze and burst in
midwinter.
The live stock Of the farm will require
the farmers protection before the end oil
month. Good, tight, but well-ventilated
buildings should be provided, not over
looking the fact that farm stock thrives
best with plenty of light and sunshine.
There is no better month in the year to
cut wood than November As a rule,
there is but little snow to interfere, and
the weather is cold enough to make ii
quite comfortable to work in the woods
and wood cut at this season is better than
if cut after January.
If the sleds are not in good order, nc
time should be lost in repairing them,
that advantage may be taken Of the first
snow 10 get the wood home.
The poultry should not be neglected
this month. Give them warm, we'll
ventilated house, and feed variety Of
grains and vegetables, with small ration
of meat daily.-On Farmers .4lmanac

In making cloth waterproof for cold
frames Rural New Yorker says that the
simplest process is to saturate the cloth
with pure raw linseed oil. Another
formula is composed of pints pale

then add the other materials and heat

If obliged to go into close communica-
ton with infectious disease, you minimize
the risk Of taking the infection if you go
only after a good meal and when feeling
as fresh and rested as possible. Hunger
is a great friend of infection, and so is
bodily fatigue. A cup of tea or coffee and
some slices of bread and butter should, at
the very least, be taken before venturing
into the poisonous atmosphere.

Opposition to Omahas efforts toward Sc
curing the 1898 session has arisen among
the members throughout the country who
are of Hebrew descent. This is due to the
fact that the Omaha lodge excludes from
membership all Jews. 1t is true that there
are no Jews on the rolls of the local lodge
and no Jews can secure admittance. The
exclusion is not set out in the rules of the
lodge, but it has become a custom to black
ball all Jewish candidates The order allows
each lodge to make its own membership
qualifications.
This practice of the Omaha lodge has been
made known in an interview from j. Lyons
OF KeoSuk, Ia. who is Hebrew. He state:
that he has been a regular visitor of this
city and has never been allowed to enter
the local lodge rooms and has never been
extended the courtesy OF the brotherhood
He comments severely upon the narrow
mindedness OF the local lodge in this re
spect and says that account Of it, the
Hebrew members will fight Omaha and will
refuse to visit this city if it secures the
session. The interview has been widely
copied
The local members have gained knowledge
of the proposed fight, but do not anticipate
that it will prevent the city from securing
the session.
