the hill where there are now many feet Of water.
One morning in the spring Of the year a farmer
drove into Hackettstown- He was returning
home late at night and had reached the foot of
the hill when his team suddenly baked They
had never done so before. but try as he would
be could not set them started He left the
wagon and went ahead to investigate. After
taking a few steps he suddenly felt himself
sinking into Quicksand- He managed 10 escape,
but had 10 build a new road before he could
drive home In a few weeks water replaced the
Quilksand and soon created a considerable lake

There ls much evidence Of the work Of indus

near the shore, and scores Of trees which their
sharp teeth have gnawed down. But still no

The road swings away from the lake and
heads again toward the entrance lodge. Then

Grow a Bale of Cotton to the Acre.


Most of the cotton lands are
lostily prepared, seed poorly
covered aud the cultivation and
.ield correspond with the half
done work. 1t is shoddy,. farm,
.ng to turn-upa seed bed with
two burrows and drill the seed
into it. All the soil should be-
turned, and two inches deeper
than it was plowed last year.
After blowing one way cross-turn
I and it may pay for the labor.
1t is a. waste of time to scratch
over three acres TO obtain bale:
of cotton, when one acre can be
made to produce as much as the
three. The cotton plant wants
good portion of vegetable mat
ter or, humus in the soil and 200
pounds of cotton seed meal
should be turned under per acre
to undergo nutriication before
the seed are sown. German
kainit is almost an essential fer
tilizef. for successful growing of
cotton on thin lands. The kainit
will act as e preventive of rust
on stalks. Where lands are rak,
ed only five inches deep, when
the tap ooot reaches the hard
soil and cannot penetrate it, the
of the plant is checked
~and rust sets in. The set of
the plant contracts and the: sur
face breaks and the juice comes
out, and has the appearance of
rust.
Hope our Southern readers
will detirmine to reduce their
acreage in cotton one half, and
produce as many bales as last
year; and SOW rape, cowpeas,
chufas, sofa bean, corn alfafa,
and sweet potatoes on the other
half.

Jersey cattle, will sell at public
auction on Tuesday and Wednes-

ing of over one hundred head.
Every animal tobe sold was born
on the Island of Jersey, the native
home of this breed except the
young stock dropped last year on
the Farm by cows imported dur
ing l9CO and 1901. There has
never been on this farm cow of
any description except imported
Jearsey and those out of import
ed parents; and since. the orig
inal stock has all been subjected
to the tuberculin test, and their
has been no chance for disease to
enter the herd from outsidesOur-
ces, the cattle are in perfect
health. They have had the run
of 100 acres of natural bluegrass
pastuae, the very best of feed
and attention, and are in condit-
ion to do their best work.

Dairy Notes.

"A good dairy COW should hold
out we'll.
Churn promptly when the
cream is ready for churning.
Sweet cream requires longer
time to churn than sour cream.
The milk does net become nor
NAL until the fifth day after calv-
ing.
It is the best butter that brings
the best price. and not the aver
age in quality.
Wheat bran should always be
fed with stronger grains to Sc
cure the best results
Too much working breaks the
grain and make a greasy. shiny
substance. -.
The bad flayors often found in
butter is very largely due TO
'over-ripening of the cream.
In handling cream it should
not allowed to become too sour.
for the butter takes the flavor of
the. cream.
A butter cow Ia valuable IN pro-
portion to the smallness of the
feed required to make a pound
OF butter.
Succulent food increases the
flow of the milk, but does not
materially increase the proper
ton of water in it. ~.

A Queer Suggestion.

At the council meeting Monday. when
the question of the tax levy came up A.
E. Amsbary suggested" that W. b.
Stockham. who was absent. had 'sug-
gested" that the levy be raised from 9
to u mills.
This suggestion was made in view OF
the fact that the town is now practically
out OF debt, and when the old council
levied the 9 mills there was an out
standing Indebtedness OF over 5000.
Mr.. Mathers, the treasurer. reports
that by the first OF Novem Der this 81 900
Indebtedness that extended over TO the
new administration will have been paid
together with $500 worth of new pipe. and
that the town treasury will have a bal
ance of about $1,000. This being the
case suggestion at this time sounds
very queer to one that does not under
stand the political complexion of things
in the little town OF Delta.
