Poultry Notes.

BY all means save all the partly
filled cabbage heads for the poultry
during the winter; they have need
of such bulky food, and cabbage
leaves fill the bill.
The enterprising poultryman
knows at this time just how many
pullets he has, how many old hens
he will keep over, how much room
he reeds and what his prospects
are.
A pond or stream is not necessary
for geese, but the fact remains that
If there is water, with its accompa-
nying vegetation, they will procure
large part of their sustenance
therefrom.
Counting the cost of stock, houses
and feed. nothing on the farm pays
so we'll in proportion to the invest
ment, and yet poultry is the most
neglected of all farm stock. Be
cause they are not given the needed
care is the reason their true worth
is not discovered.

Horticulture.

Destroy noxious seed and insect
eggs by burning all weeds, dead
brush and vines, and save many
times the labor next season. Not a
weed should be left in the berry
garden this fall.
The autumn is an excellent time
for transplanting trees. 1t is not
necessary to wait until leaves have
fallen, but transplant at any time
from September until the ground
freezes, cutting off the leaves.
In planting an orchard do not hope
to include all the kinds you ever
heard of. Make such selection of
the best as will give you a success
sion OF fruit, and be content ii there
are but a dozen varieties.
There will never be over produc-
tion of fruit in this country. That
is the old cry, but there has been a
steady demand and increased prices.
The increase in population Of towns
and cities IL away ahead of that of
fruit planting.
Plants which have been mulched
in summer with green clover, clean
straw or coarse manure will require
less covering of dirt in winter, but
all blackberries, raspberres and
grapes should be laid down and
! lightly covered.
Even in localities where plants
show no injury the vitality is often
affected by the severe winters and
the crops reduced. Protection fol
our growing small fruits is an abso.
Lutte necessity. Let US not now
neglect plants which we have
nursed and guarded SO carefully.
Often those who should grow fruit
in most abundance must buy it oil
do without it. No farmer can buy
fruit as cheaply as he can grow it
No one is going to grow it at les:
price than cost aud sell it to him
1t is a fact that but few farmers
grow strawberries even for theil
own tables.
While weak solution of coppera
will rid the cabbage plants of worms
if sprinkled upon them, a solution
of pine tar will be found preferable
Prepare a quantity in a barrel, ant
have but little care as to the proper
tions, as the water will take up jus
so much of the tar, and no more.
The varieties of strawberrie
famous 20 years ago have nearly al
disappeared. We can not tell jus
why this is, but it is we'll to rails
new Seeding continually. Varietie
seem to degenerate when cultivatet
for long time in one locality, an,
often plants of the same kind
brought from distance will d
' much better.
Grapes grow upon the new WOO
only, and this years branches groy
next years fruit Let the vines b
trimmed in the autumn, cuttin
away twO-thirds of the year
growth. The object in trimming /
to get a we'll formed vine and
large yield of good fruit; neithe
point will be procured if the pruu
: ing is neglected.

A Thirteen Month Year.

1t is suggested that on Jan. l, 1900,
new division of che year into 10
months be instituted. If such division
were made, the first IL months would
have 2S days, or four weeks each, and
the new month 30 days, to make 965,
and 30 in leap years. After few days
there would be no need to refer to calen-
dars, as the same day Of the week would
have the same date through the year.
If Jan. were, say, Monday, every Mon
day would be the 1st, 6th, 10Th and 22d;
every Tuesday the I'd, 9th, 10th and
23d, and so ON through the year The
changes Of the moon would be on about
the same dates through the year, and
many calculations, like interest, dates
Of maturing notes, Easter and many
other important dates would be simpli-
fed Exchange

Live Stock and Dairy.

Keep the pigs growing and hearty.
1t will pay to provide warm quar-
tiers and plenty of bedding for the
pigs.
In feeding COWS it is very unwise
practice to give too much chaff,
crushed corn or any other dry food
unless steamed. Constant dry food
will decrease the milk yield.
The work of running a dairy re-
quires more methodical care than
any employment on the farm. Every
part of the work must be performed
every day, and at as nearly the
same hour as possible.
A characteristic of the Jersey
cow worthy of notice is that she has
an adaptability to all climates. The
summer heat of the South and the
rigorous winters of Canada alike
seem to have no effect upon her use
fulness.
With good care mules can be
broken and worked easier than
horses, and farmers will find it pays
to keep two or three good mares to
be bred to jacks, that they may con-
stantly have teams they can work OF
readily sell.
1t has been said that the Ameri-
can hog is a combined machine fol
reducing the bulk in corn and Ell.
HANGING its value; a machine that
oils itself; puts ten bushels Of corn
into a less space than bushe
measure, and in so doing quadruple'
the value of the grain. Corn loaned
on a well-bred hog is cash ut a big
interest.
Shelter saves food, and food il
money. Liberal feeding will sus
tain heat, but less food will be re
quired with warm, comfortable
quarters. When you see your ami
mails standing, shivering in thu
storm, count the cost. Look at thu
humane side of it, too.
You never found a dairyman VIII
was a liberal feeder who did no
make good profit from his cows
provided that he had good cows
you never saw farmer who tool
pains to have herd of good cow
and tried to post himself on dair.
questions who did not prosper if h.
stuck right to business.

How to Make a Fortune.

The following are extracts from Il
letter written by Henry Ward
Beecher to his son:
you must not go into debt. Avoid
debt as you would the devil. Make
it fundamental rule; No debt
cash or nothing"
Make few promises. Religiously
observe the smallest. A man who
means to keep his promises can't af-
ford to make many"
BE scrupulOusly careful in all
statements. Accuracy and perfect
frankness, no guess work. Either
nothing or accurate truth"
Make yourself necessary to those
who employ you by industry, fidelity
and scrupulous integrity. Selfish
ness is fatal"
Hold yourself responsible for a
higher standard than anybody else
expects of you. Demand more Of
yourself than anybody expects of
you. Keep your own standard high.
Never excuse yourself to yourself.
Never pity yourself. Be hard
master to yourself, but lenient to
everybody else"
Concentrate your force on your
own business; do not turn off. Be
constant, steadfast, presevering." .
do not speculate or gamble.
Steady patient industry is both the
surest and the safest way. Greedi-
ness and haste are two devils that
destroy thousands every year."
The art of making ones fortune
is to spend nothing. In this country
any intelligent young man may be-
come rich if he stops all leaks and is
not in hurry. Do not make haste
be patient

THE LITTLE PINK SHOE.

only little pink baby shoe
That is stained and wrinkled and torn,
With tiny hole where the little pink
toe
Peeped out in the days that are gone.
The little pink toe was the "big little
pig"
That to market so often would go,
And over and over the legend was told
AS kissed the little pink toe.
"Piggie some more" the red lips would
lisp.
And the story and kiss were given
Again and again, so happy were we
In mOtherhood's foretaste of Heaven.
But there came night, with desolate
blight,
When death bore my idol away,
And no little toe ever peeped from the
shoe
To be kissed in the sweet old way.
But my tears have deluged the pink lit
tie shoe
And stained it deeper stain,
And / long for the touch that would
chill me in death
If it gave me my darling again.
So when am dead, Law the little pink
shoe
Near my heart which is silent and
cold,
And perhaps up above, in the sunlight
of love,
| shall kiss the pink toe as of old.

THE FARMERS THANKSGIVING.

The earth is brown and skies are gray,
And the windy woods are bare
And the first white flakes of the coming
snow
Are afioat in the frosty air,
But the sparks fly up from the hickory
On the homestead's broad stone
hearth,
And the windows shake, and the raft
ters ring, fi'f'
TO the lads and the lassies' mirth.
The farmers face Is furrowed and worn.
And his locks are thin and white,
But his hand is steady, his voice is clear,
And his locks are thin and white,
And he turns to look at his sweet old
wife,
Who sits in her gown of gray,
With the cobweb kerchief and creamy
She wore on her wedding day.
He bows his head to the laden board
And the guests they are silent all.
Thanksgiving Lord, for the sun and
rain, F
And the fruit on the orchard wall.
For the silver wheat, and the golden
corn, A
And the crown of peaceful life
The greatest Blessing that thou canst
give
A true and loving wifep
This white haired lover he bends to kiss
Her hand in its frill Of lace
And the faded rose on her wrinkled
cheek -.
With proud and courtly grace,
And the snowfakes click on the win
dow pane,
And the rafters ring above,
And the angels sing at the gates of God
The words OF the farmers love.

CAUGHT IN A LANDSLIDE.
One Man Killed at the Phosphate Mines
in Hickman County.

One Man Killed at the Phosphate Mines
in Hickman County.
Centreville, Nov. IA big land
slide occurred this afternoon in the
j. H. Daniel q Coz phosphate mines
in which one young man by the
name of James M. Murney was
killed and several other miners
barely escaped being covered up in
the debris.
All of the miners discovered the
bank was giving way in time to get
out except young Murney, who was
right under the bank and was buried
about seven feet under the dirt and
rock. Several men were put to work
at once to get him out, and after
about 100 tons of rock and dirt were
removed it was found that every
bone in his body was broken.
Murney was the son of widow
living near this place, and was well
known. The accident is very much
regretted.
