you owe, and the amounts owing to
you. These little bills in the aggregate
amount to q large sum. Make a settle
ment if you can; if you cannot, get the

best to know exactly what you do owe,
and it is very bad policy to keep run

made every month. Farmers are IN
usually careless in their money trans

a strict account of all OUTLAWS. Pay as
you go, and take a written receipt for

A stroke of lightning has been the
means OF an extraordinary archaelogic-
al discovery in Voltara. The light
ming struck an old pine tree which
crowned the summit of a hill, and tho
owner of the property ordered the tree
cut down. When the workmen began
to dig at the roots they unearthed a
magnificent Ehruscan grave. 1t con-
sisted of spacious vault supported by
four immense pillars. All around the
grave were large marble tablets, and
above them were urns placed in inches.
This unique metropolis measured so
feet in length and 40 feet in width.

At a meeting recently by the Texas
State Live Stock Sanitary Board, at
Fort Worth, Inspector Dean, OF the
Bureau of Animal Industry. said the
department was satisfied with the dip
ping experiments recently made there
and elsewhere, and insisted on main
tanning the present quarantine line and
a close season. He says dipping sta
lions will shortly be established along
the quarantine line. Inspector Dean
reported satisfactory results attending
the cattle recently dipped and shipped
to Illinois. He advised dipping in mod
crate weather in order to avoid the eff
feet Of exposing the cattle to either
heat or cold while their hair was sat
urated with the oil. The formula Of
the preparation which he recommends,
and which has been adopted by the
Government, consists of partin oil,
known as dynamo and sulphur.

Tomatoes may be forced In winter
like other plants. The house should be
light and warm, the roof five feet above
the bed or benches. plenty of light be-
ing essential The temperature should
be from 60 to G5 degrees at night and
20 to so degrees during the day, the soil
to be rich, and close personal attention
should be given the plants. The flowers
must be pollenated by hand in winter,
which is done by knocking the pollen
from the flowers when the atmosphere
is dry and catching it in a spoon into
which the stigma should be thrust. The
plants should be well watered as re
ouired. instead of little and often, and
should be trained to stakes, the surplus
branches cut away. They may be also
grown in large pots or boxes.

Bran, 3 pounds; fine feed, pounds;
cornmeal, pounds; fed with clover
hay steamed and cut, adding also a
very small quantity Of salt, and two or
three handfuls of coarse sand and fine
oyster shells mixed. Sometimes boiled
vegetables are used in place of the hay.
At noon he gives a light feed of oats,
and a good feed of wheat in the even
ing. The grain ration is varied as
much as possible. He keeps raw vege-
tables, including cabbages, carrots and
turnips, where the hens can peck at
them at any time. Prof. Gilbert has

The fine wool breeds of sheep are
most subject to foot rot. Perhaps the
best way to treat it is to cut of the dis
eased portion and apply nitric acid.
Sulphur should be kept in ready
reach in the sheep house; insects and
vermin do not like it, and it is proven
tive of many ills. Further, a piece Of
roll birthstone should be found in the
feed troughs of the horses and the cat
tie.
Many of the internal parasites which
cause losses in the flock are taken In
while watering at foul drinking places.
Unless the water supply is watched
carefully. there is likely to be at least
a loss of condition among them, if
there is no more serious loss.-Indiana
