Cleaning Buggy and Harness.

Cleaning Buggy and Harness.
The method used by one farmer and
one which makes it possible to perform
the work without soiling ones gar
ments to any disagreeahle extent is:
He first removes all cushions, cur
tains, etc, dusts well and cleanses
leather or rubber parts. The next is to
place the buggy on two trestles and re-
move the wheels to a watering trough,
which is beneath a large willow tree
Spray the buggy. Then turn the wheels
around in the trough. At the same time
remove all earthly matter that is soaked
enough not TO scratch the varnish. The
wheels. or any part, must rot be kept
wet long or the paint will acquire
whitish color, in which case little lin
seed oil on a soft rag can be used with
good effect, after the paint has been
thoroughly dried.
When the wheels are clear of mud
rinse with clear water and set in the
shade to drip off while the pmainder
of the rig is attended to. Wash in the
same way. Wipe with a cloth Grung
out of clean water and polish with a
soft lintleSs rag. Well-wora ginghams
are good for this purpose. Wipe all
drops off the wheels with a clean, we'll
wrung cloth and follow with dry one.
Clean all gummy substance from the
SpindIes and inside the hubs. Oil spin
dies and put wheels securely ON.

Hints for the Horseman.

Use land plaster in the stalls to alb
sorb the ammonia.
Poor feeding will make a weak colt
and unsound limbs.
Watch the colts feet and keep them
straight with a rasp.
Never allow any one to tease the
colts. Teasing invariably makes a
vicious horse.
Make the stable doors wide, so there
is no danger of horse knocking his
hips when passing through.
Handle the colt every day. Handle
his legs and pick up his feet. A petted,
well-hardled colt will make a gentle
horse.
Give the colts and horses all the sun
shire in the stables that is possible. A
dark, damp stable viii cause rheuma-
tism, and is conducive TO all sorts OF
ills.
Better than a slat door or drop bar
across a door TO keep horses in or out.
bore a hole through one door post and
nearly through the other. Slip in a piece
of inch or larger iron pipe. 1t is easy
to slide it to pass in and out.
Put well-fitted leather halter on the
colts head with short strap attached.
Several times each day take hold of this
strap and hold him or pull him around.
In short time he viii be halter brcs-n
without the straining of a fight II tied
up al oner.
The teeth of both young and old
horses often need attention when they
do not get anything of the kind En-
fects are thus produced that are some
times attributed to altogether different
influences. No wonder that horse with
teeth constantly disordered becomes a
horse ot confirmed bad temper.

Depth for TranspIanting.

If fall planting is contemplated the
following hints on transplanting should
be remembered: Strawberry, raspberry
and blackberry plants should be set
as shallow as possible to give the roots
proper covering. If necessary to give
them winter protection by mounding
the earth around the plant, do it just
before the ground freezes, and be sure
this soil is leveled down in the early
spring. This also applies to the soil
mounding about trees. All nursery
grown trees show plainly the depth
they were set in the nursery and in
transplanting it is good rule never to
set the tree more than two inches low
er than it stood in the nursery row.
Trees planted too deep are longer in
starting and never grow so well as
those set as indicated.

Fall Pruning.

As TO whether fall or spring is the
best time for pruning there is a dis
agreement among fruit growers. One
thing we have found out, however
when it is necessary TO remove a limb
Of considerable size. an inch or over in
diameter. the best time is September
and October. Wounds made at that
season, though they may not heal over
as quickly as at some other times. will
never decay. Owing no doubt TO the
ripe condition of the wood. the cut sur

We have tested this for many years
and know it TO be So
In all pruning particular care should
be used 10 make smooth cuts. No stubs
should be left sticking out. 1t is sur

has proved very satisfactory to all who
have grown it, is a healthy, vigorous
grower, and remarkably productive.
The berries are large, uniform in
shape, deep crimson in color, and of
fine flavor. 1t is mid-season in time of
ripening, hence the blossoms can be
fortified by any of the perfect blossom
sorts so numerous among the mid-sea-
son varieties. One feature of the plant
is its deep-rooting qualities, which
must of necessity make it somewhat
independent of dry weather.-Indian-

TIL. Hogs swirl.

Sun-baked swill in filthy barrels;
swill that is fermented into the sharp
est acid and putrefed into disgusting
mass; swill that attracts myriads of
earrionloying flies, is not fit for the
hogs. 1t is full of miasma and disease
GERMS of various kinds, and hence it is
dangerous to feed it, says the Farm,
Stock and Home. Pleasantly soured
swill-swill that is mildly acids all
right, but it should not be allowed to
pass that stage before it is fed and in
hot weather it gets past that stage very
quickly. 1t is not easy to look after such
things carefully in the rush of all kinds
of work at this season, and some can
not receive such suggestions with pa
thence, which is not surprising, but for
all that it will pay to give some
thoughts to the pigs. 1t will not be
regretted at their harvest time.

Winter Feed for Poultry.

If those who handle poultry during
the winter would only remember that
during the summer the two things
fowls hunt for most when on the range
are insects and green stuff, and provide
plenty of green food during the winter,
the egg result would be materially in
creased. Give the laying hens variety
in grains also, but let the main portion
of the grain be given in small quaint
ties and placed where the hens will
