Root CROPS For PoULTRY.-It
would not be wise to feed only roots
to poultry. Yet if the farmer will use
only one-fourth Of the grain he gives
daily and substitute cooked roots he
will reduce the expenses materially
and get more eggs. The cheapest food
is that which will make hens lay, and
the way to make hens lay is to keep
them in good health. 1t is impossible
to have a flock in good laying condi'
ton when only grain is given. Such
foods as carrots, turnips and potatoes
are not rich in reproducing elements
but they perform service which rem
ders all the food more valuable than
hay. Let the farmer give his COW
nothing but corn, and the supply Of
milk would soon be reduced. From q
dietary standpoint, the use of cooked
roots is recommended, and they will
enable the farmer to feed more hens
and get more eggs with little or nc
additional cost.-Farm and Fireside.

In Conclusion, Let Me
Say That I Would Not
Pretend to Farm Without It.

CEVEN YEARS ago, Mr.. w. Holmes
10 Hardin, of Chester county, enjoyed
| the distinction of being one Of the most
practical and successful farmers in the
| Piedmont section, and according to the
best information at hand he still ranks
among the tirst. The appended endorse
ment of the Corbin Disk Harrow was
written by him in March, 1890, and what
| he said then we are sure he will endorse
now. Read it and do some thinking:
CHESTER, s. c., March q, 1890.
SAM NJ. GRIsT, Yorkville, 5. c.: Dear
Sir: have owned Corbin Disk Harrow
for several wears, and consider it the most
useful and economical farming imple-
ment of which I have any knowledge.
Mr.. Corbin has done more for the farmer
than all the politicians, retormers, etc.,
combined. He has done something prac-
tcal. No farmer can fail to he benefited
| by the use of the Harrow, and the more it
is used the greater the benefit or profit:
1t is almost the only so-called improved
| farming implement that | have ever seen
that would do all its manufacturers claim
ed for it, and the only one that would do
more. Every farmer should have one,
and a man who is able to buy fertilizers
for his land is more able to buy Corbln
Disk Harrow. The time will come when
the Corbin Disk Harrow will be consider
ed as much of necessity on the farm as
the wagon, sewing machine, cooking
stove, and might say, the plow ; and the
sooner it comes the better for the farmer.
1t only takes a farmer, who has been ac-
customed to the old way of doing things,
about one hour to realize how much time
and labor he has literally wasted before
he used the Corbin Harrow: In conclu,,
sion, let me say that l would not pretend
to farm without it. Respectfully,
w. HOLMES HARDIN.
We sell the G GENUINE CORBIN DISK
HARROW. 1t has never had success
full rival. If you want so-called Spad-
ing or Cutaway, we can furnish you one
made by the manufactures of the Corbin.
The Corbin has solid disks and they are
the best; but as stated we can furnish the
someone who has had less experience than
we, and will furnish the best harrow OF
that pattern on the market. IT. mechan-
ism is identically the same as the Corbln,
the only difference being in the disks.

ALL He KNEw.-At the Union sta
ton, the other day, an old man who
had borrowed match, then a chew O
tobacco, then a postage'stamp, anc
lastly besought the loan of key tc
open his old satchei, came back the
fifth time, and said to the stranger
whom he had most annoyed:
"My friend, can you tell me how
mauy times the human heart beats pei
minute?"
"No, SIR"
"Can you tell me who first discover
ed the circulation of the blood? ?"
"No, SIR"
"Do YOU know whether the pulse
should beat 70 or 700 times minute J"
"No, don't. All l know about the
human system is the fact that if you
bother me two seconds longer, l shall
exert pressure of 5000 pounds, IN
the endeavor to raise you about SIN
feet from the floor ~
"Just so-just So" growled the ole
man, as he sidled off; "but don't try
to pass that of on me for physlca

boss could do!'

USEFUL HINTS.

For a sore throat, cut slices of fat,
boneless bacon, pepper thickly, and
tie around the throat with a flannel
cloth.
When stung by a bee or a wasp,
make a paste of common earth and
water, put ON the place at once and
cover with cloth.
For a cold on the chest, flannel
rag wrung out in boiling water and
sprinkled with turpentine, laid on the
chest, gives the greatest relief.
When a felon first begins to make
its appearance, take lemon, cut of
one end, put the finger in, and the Ion
ger it is kept there the better.
For cough, boil one ounce of flax.
seed in pint of water, strain, and
add little honey, one ounce of rock
candy, and the juice of three lemons ;
mix and boil well. Drink as hot as
possible.
Often after cooking u meal person
will feel tired and have no appetite ;
for this beat raw egg until light, stir
in little milk and sugar, and season
with nutmeg. Drink half an hour be-
fore eating.
For burn or scald, make paste of
common baking soda and water, apply
at once, and cover with linen cloth.
When the skin is broken, apply the
white of an egg with feather; this
gives instant relief, as it keeps the air
from the flesh.
At the first signs of ring round,
take cupful of wood ashes, put in a
pan with a quart of cold water, put
the pan on the stove, put your finger
in the pan, keep it there until the
water begins to boil, or as long as it
can be borne. Repeat once or twice
if necessary.

Use FOR BROKEN DISHES.

During the first seven years | kept
house it was a question what to do
with the broken things, as all the time
feared 1 might put them where some
thing would suffer from my thought
lessness. The first three years lived
on a farm where there was plenty of
gravel to furnish grit for the fowls,
they were fat and healthy, and we got
plenty of eggs with but little exertlon
on my part. I then moved to this
farm, where there is no gravel, and in
spite of all my efforts my fowls were
poor, frequently dying, though there
was no cause for it that l could see.
Their gizzards were found to be soft
aud void of fat. We got scarcely any
eggs. I was sure it was for the want
of grit, and and frequently crushed
brick and scattered in their run. The
idea came to me last fall to crush
my broken dishes and all such articles
for the fowls. Knowing wheat to be
excellent food for them, mixed the
grit with the wheat bran, and fed the
hens every evening; it was but few
days till they were laying and all look
ing thrifty. 1 soon had eggs with
which to replace all broken things
and buy many more. The gizzards are
now firm and covered with fat, and
there is no worry over barefoot chill
dren and stock getting hurt or broken
lamp chimneys, bottles, etc. Readers
who are interested in poultry, aud
have barefoot children and stock,
should try the plan, and they will be
charmed with the result.-M. r., in
Practical Farmer.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1898-05-25

DIGEsTIBLE EGGs.-Eggs to be read,
ily digested should either be boiled
very soft or hard enough to crumble
In the intermediate stage the albumen
is so tough as to be insoluble by the
gastric juice. There is no happy me-
dunn between the three or four minute
egg and the twenty. Boiled eggs, to
be at their best, should not be boiled
at all; but if desired hard should be
kept below the boiling point for &c
minutes. For soft eggs, put in cold
water, allow to just come to boil.
and they will be creamy and delicious
all the way through.
