Farm Notes.

During extremely warm weather the
use of O for aaimals is injurious. 1t
heats them, ana with hogs 1t Is an in
Fiction ii corn atone is used. The best
food Is hay or grass, and If grain must
he allowed ground oats should be pre-
| ferred. Tie kind of food that is most
saryiceable In winter Is not suitable for
summer.
Although timothy hay Is preferred
for horses and clover for cows, yet
clover hay that has been cut just as the
heads were beginning to turn brown,
and which has been we'll cured, Is much
more nutritious than timothy, and the
horses will show n preference for 1t.
Badly cured clover hay, however, is
~distasteful TO horses more than TO
cows.
Should the melons be slow In grow
ing apply q small quantity of nitrate OF
soda around each hill and chop 1t In
with the hoe. For beans use a mixture
of n pint nitrate of soda and two
narts muEiate of potash. One or the
best modes of forcing cabbages to grow
Is 10 hoe them after each rain or cult
yate so as to have the soil loose and
the ground clear of weeds and grass.
The effect OF clearing away the for
ests Is damaging TO crops. not that the
presence of forests causes rainfall, but
because they regulate the flow of
wafer. There Is leg evaporation near
forests. and the water does not dow
away so rapidly nor cause streams to
overflow at some periods. while dry at
others. The trees serve as wind
breaks. thus preventing the drying OF
the soil by warm winds during periods
of drought.

INDIANS DEFY THE NATION.
waiia Ionka Is Pat to Death In Spit.

# . SIuEFs
William Goings, the Choctaw Indian
known also by the name of "Walla Ton.
ka," was executed at Alikichi, /. T., for
the murder of his uncle, Mason Goings.
Inc execution took place at = o'clock, and
was a sickening sight. Al quilt was spread
On the ground near the court house, and
near 1t four Indians placed a coffin. A
lew minutes later the prisoner, in charge
OF Sheriff Watson and d deputy, and es-
corted by twenty light horsemen, march
ca down the line of spectators. Goings
pade them good-by, and knelt on the
quit blindfolded. The sheriff barred his
breast n painted a spot over the heart;
ne then stepped back four PAGES, rested
u rifle over d bench and fired, but missed
the painted spot. Goings fell back and
moaned an hour before expiring. Water
was poured down his throat a number of
times 10 hasten mis- death by ~strangula-
ton.
A writ of habeas corpus was granted
by Federal Judge John r. Thomas, but
when it was delivered by two deputy
marshals the sheriff refused to receive it.
Whlie the execution was proceeding Dis
tfict Attorney Clay remarked: I'VE are
making history 1t remains to be seen
v aat action the United States Govern
ment will take for defiance Of the writ.
Walla Tonka was d full hlooded Chloe
taW. lie was born in the Indian Terri
eofy iWenty-four years ago. In his 18th
year he stabbed and killed his uncle, ia
cob Lewis, and shortly after engaged in
a saloon fight in which he shot and killed
Bun Henderson. He was tried on both
charges and acquitted, but was convicted
OF murder of another uncle, Mason Co
lngs, in 1896, aud was sentenced to be
shot on Aug. %, 1897. Tonka was a
member Of the Choctaw baseball club,
and was respited in order TO finish the
season without the loss of so valuable a
player.

TELLS A REMARKABLE TALE.
Murderer Swart Relates the Stranc
History of His Life

Murderer Swart Relates the Strange
History of His Life.
Emil Swart, one of the Meier murder
ers, has told the Chicago police a remark
able tale, which he say is the true his
tory of his life. He asserts that he ran
away from home when II years Of age
and shipped on a German merchantmen
for the Indian ocean. Tie vessel was at
tackled by pirates in the China sea and
Swart was taken to Formosa, where he
was made body servant to the daughter
of the pirate chief.
After six years of constant companion
ship the girl fell in love with him and
planned his escape. They put to sea in an
open boat and six days later were picked
up by a vessel bound for Canton, where
they lived two years. One day the Tom-
an eloped with a wealthy Englishnan.
Swart went to Australia and worked for
a while in the gold fields. One night his
cabin was attacked by a band of blacks
and when they retreated they left on the
battlefield n wounded omar Swart
nursed her to health and left with her for
England. At Suez she died. In the same
city, a few days later, he met the pirate
chiefs daughter and the Englishman. The
latter, fearing that the woman would
return to SWart, cut her throat and fed.
Swart then came to America and has
siuce been leading a life of crime.

For Dining Sheen.

The illustration, reproduced from the
Country Gentleman, shows a contri-
vance for dipping sheep which is made
as follows: A two-inch pine plank,
held together by bolts across the ends,
outside; joints put together. with white
lead. One end is inclined, so that the
sheep may be drawn upon the draining
table, B, which has Stats upon the top,
so as to permit the fluid to u back
into the tub. This box Is half filled
with dipping fluid. Two men urn n
sheep upon its back, lift it by its legs
and head and submerge Its body. a
third man should stand IN the opposite
end of the box to assist In keeping the
sheep under for a minute or SO while
the wool is soaked to the skin. The
animal Is then drawn upon the drain
ing table, and the wool pressed by hand
to force OUT as much fluid as can read
lily be. The sheep Is then lifted to the

Decrease In Humble Bees.


Wherever a bumblebee Is seen in a
room his loud buzzing, added to the
knowledge of the fact that 1t is really
dangerous II 1t M to close quarters,
gives everybody a desire to kill it and
put 1t where 1t will do no harm. Yet
really it would be better in most cases
II a door or window were opened and
the bumblebee allowed to fly away.
Early In spring the bumblebees that
are flying around about houses are in
search of places to make their nests.
So manly are killed. however, that in
the long-settled parts of the country
the bumblebee Is much scarcer than 1t
used to be. They are the only bees
that can reach down into the blossoms
of red clover, and their work In honey
gathering fertilizes the blossom so that
1t can produce seed. The bumblebee
therefore ought 10 be encouraged In
stead of being destroyed.

Cranes.

A very convenient way of propagat-
ing the grapevine is by layering. A
vigorous branch should be selected, and
after all of its side growth is removed
it is bent to the ground with the end
over the spot where the new vine is
desired. Here a hos six inches deep
is dug, the vine is bent into it and fast
ened In place with a forked stake, or
by laying a stone upon 1t, and then 1t
Is covered with soil all but the terminal
shoot, which should be tied to a stake.
After 9, years growth the layer Will
be sufficiently rooted to admit OF being
cut loose from the parent vine. While
this is a little more work, 1t is rather
a better plan than making cuttings
when only a small number of plants
are desired.-Farmers' Voice.

Fruits for Home Use.

Fruits sometimes sell at a low price
and do not pay, but the same may be
said of all crops. The farmer, how
ever, is usually not a fruit grower lex
cept of apples), and Strawberries, rasp-
berries and blackberries are lever cul-
tivated. Whether grown for market or
not, such fruits should be produced on
every farm by way of variety and for
home use. The luxuries can be pro-
duced more easily by farmers than can
the regular crops Of grain. 1t takes
two or three acres of wheat to buy the
produce that can be derived from a
quarter of an acre of small fruits and

Outwittinp the wireworms.

II
This Is how n farmer got ahead of
wireworms. Several years ago he
broke up an old meadow and planted 1t
to corn, but the wirewOrms destroyed
all the young plants. He replanted.
but to no avail, and could not get a
stand that year. The next year he
planted the field again, but the corn
was ruined. The third year, by the
advice of an cid farmer, he let the
ground remain unbroken until the last
of May, then plowed deeply and cross
narrowed. He hen put IN common
salt, sowing 1t broadcast, as he would
have sown grass seed, at the rate of
two-thirds of a barrel per acre. He
again cross-harrowed and planted the
corn, and never raised a better crop
than grew upon the sailed ground the
first year and the one following.

Alfalfa for Stock Feed.

All through the arid States of the
West the alfalfa clover succeeds better
thar our ommon led varieties. 1t has
the advantage also Of remaining in The
ground several years when it Is once
in.rly rooted. The alfalfa roots go
down much deeper than red clover
roots, and in this way keep green In
dry weather that curls the red clover.
Yet the alfalfa undoubtedly eyaporates
more moisture than red clover, as it
makes n larger growth.

Better results are obtalned with fer
tilizers when lains are plentiful, for
the reason that the AMOUNT OF water re-
quired to dissolve fertilizers Is large
when the applications are heavy. II
may ut times be noticed that small
quantities of fertilizer were as bene-
fetal as larger quantitit on other plots
and on the same kind of crop. This re-
suit is due TO the fact that a portion of
the fertilizer was o dissolved on
those plots where heavy applications
were made, but the proportion remain
ing In the soil will be of service the sue

Ants Killing Plum Tree

Ants Killing Plum Tree.
For a plum tree that IS about to be
killed by large ants use the following
freely: Paris green or london purple,
/ ounce; fresh Stacked lime, 10 ounces;
water, twelve gallons. Make n paste
of the paris green and lime by mixing
them together thoroughly with a small
amount Of water. Then add the twelve
gallons of water, mix and strain the
solution. Apply to every part of the
tree and leaves in a fine spray. A regu-
lar spraying machine should be used,
but a common syringe will do by climb
ing up into the tree or by using a lad
der to reach the top branches. 1t is
likely that one application will be sufi-
clent, but If rains follow repeat the
spraying.

secure Good Mixers.

There are comparatively few places
where the milking Is now done by
women and children. Their hands are
not strong enough to do the WORK eff
fectiyely, and a slow mixer tires the
cow so that she is apt TO hold up the
last milk, which Is richest. This dries
the COW off. 1t is the interest of the
farmer to hire only men who are used
to milking, who are kind to all animals.
and especially when they are milking.
Whoever beats n COW. or wen speaks
so loudly to her as to brighten her, les
