The Bounty of The Hay Crop

AS the harvest of the year advances the
bounty OF the hav and other fodder crops
of the year is more fully realized. AT
the opening of the usual haying season
the trst of July, the grass had but just
become well established and ready to
grow Frequent rains following the grass
kept right on growing while farmers
were grumbling because OF delay in
cutting. That pace of increase in the
crop has been kept up to the present
time. Though the earlier growth became
in a measure over mature. yet II was
accompanied by young growth that in
many cases was equal in quantity TO the
original stand, thus making two crops in
one. The result is that all over the
state barns are OVERLOOKING with the
bounty of fodder Farm after farm had
no possible room under cover for their
heavy grain crop Bountiful yields Of
second crop clover are being neglected
for want Of storage room. There are
hundreds OF tons of English hay around
the city Of Bangor stacked out door fd6
want Of barns TO house IT,, Some Of
this hay Is eolored dy exposure 10 bad
weather while harvesting. but sub
stantially all Of 1t is good stock fodder.
Maine farmers can again carry their full
number Of cattle and sheep through the
winter. As result cows and steers are
in good demand and bringing full values.

The Common Hen Louise.

This species of louise is known by
every keeper OF poultry. Although ex-
ceedingly troublesome it can be easily
gotten rid of. In half grown chicks and
sdul, birds, it Is found underneath the
wi gs, around the vent and sometimes
on the thighs and the fluffy feathers
underneath the body. On small chick
ems, it is found largely in the down on
top of the head. In adult birds the
presence of this parasite is made
manifest by the birds almost constantly
picking themselves and the scraggiy
appearance of their feathers. Small
chicks afflicted with this pest usually die
In large numbers md of no apparent
cause. An examination OF dead
chick quickly acertains the cause.
Treat fowls afflicted with body lice
as follows: Procure a sufficient guam
tity of good insect powder and clean
box, grasp the fowl by both legs with
one hand with its head down and hang
ing directly over the box With the
other hand sift a small handful OF good
insect powder q use Lambert's Death to

to be found. The loose powder, II any,
falls into the box underneath and can be
thus easily saved. Sky birds can be

The Happy Farmer.
boston Evening Transcript.

These are the days when the grange
choirs and vocal leaders 10 the evening
gatherings in the country districts Of
Nothern New England put especial zesi
into their songs of praise for the lie Oh
ghe independent farmer. The coal trust
has no terrors for those who have a wood
shed full of well seasoned oak and maple,
the price of meat cannot dampen the
spirits of people who have chickens and
a few head of live stock to sell. The
cold SIMMER has brought good weather
to work in and the apple crop is large
enough to justify the farmer in putting
few barrels of good cider into the
cellar, for vinegar. as he will explain,
though welcome guests will find it served
in a generous pitcher, with the apples
that give assurance OF admission 10 the
family circles friendship on a winter
evening Though most OF the joys the
dwellers in cities see in country life
would vanish on closer inspection, they
are not all illusions, and this year they
are more attractive than ever as we
contrast the care-free side of rural life
with ours.

the cylinder are supported and revolve

Herewith, Is a spiral which operates
like an auger and forces the potatoes

vice the potatoes are carried up on to
the elevator, which delivers them into
sacks. In operating this machine two

the potatoes are sacked, but when
dumped in piles In the field one man
only is needed.
"The machine Is capable of harvest

The Birth-Rate Problem.

The world will never lack problems.
One. which d nov only a speck 10 the
perspective. but which eventually may
occupy the Foreground. is the decline 10
the birth rate among highly civilized
peoples. The census report on vital
statistics in the United States for 1890
showed the birth rate to be 2o.o per
thousand. and the same authority for
1900 gave the rate as ga per thousand,
slight gain that is apt TO mislead un-
less the volume of immigration be con-
sidered. For the decade OF 1890 1900
the average annual increase in population
due to excess OF births over deaths was
only los per thousand for the class
born of native white parents, while 1t
was sos per thousand for the class
born OF foreign white parents. In the
New England states the excess OF births
over deaths in the foreign class was ~ 5
per thousand. while in the native class
the death rate exceeded the birth rate
by Is per thousand, Though the situa-
ton in New England is extreme. II is
true, according to the census, that the
excess of the birth rate above the death
rate is greater among the alien and nat
uralized Inhabitants of the United States
than among the native born.
The birth rate in England shows de-
cline In 1870 /, was 80 per thousand.
and by the last census returns 3l.57
The conditions in France are notorious.
1t is conceded by most authorities that
the decline in the birth rate among ultra
civilized people is due to psychological!
and not to physiological reasons; not to
physical deterioration, but to greater
caution in or fear of assuming the re-
sponsibility of rearing children. A sup
Elemental cause, it is said. may be the
widening of the extra-domestic activities
OF women. such as wage earning, club
life and society"
The decline in the birth rate becomes
more significant, when it is recalled that
the death rate is lsssening and that the
"medan age" in the United States is
seven years greater than it was 100
years ago.

The Home OF Choice stock.

The United States is the best place
on earth to raise fne stock in, says a
veterinarian OF York state. Our dairy
cattle rank among the best 10 the world
and the same holds true in regard to ouI
beef cattle. The American horse. fol
usefulness as well as speed. is the &C.
knowledged best horse in existence, and
is sought after in the marts OF trade as
is the horse from no other country in the
world. Our pigs and chickens stand al
the head OF the line. The American fine
wool sheep have gone to the front. In
sheep husbandry we are the wonder Of
the old country stock growers.
While we are leading the world in the
quality of our stock of all kinds. there is
no other country that can match US 10
numbers produced in proportion to
