General Farm, Notes.


Long and hard pulling makes wind
broken horses.
II a sow breeds we'll and is q good
mother, keep her until she is old.
Early and thorough training makes
gentle, safe and tractable horses.
Clean off the ground occupied by
peas, early corn or potatoes and sow
turnips.
Always breed from thoroughbred
boar Of good constitution and vigor,
His vigor should be in excess Of that
of the SOW,
With poultry, as with nearly all
other products from the farm, a safe
rule Is to market the surplus when
ever fair profit can be realized when
making the sale.
Among thoroughbred poultry there
is little difference so far as their econ
omical points are concerned, but on
a farm solid, strong and coarse breed
is best.
Those who make the most in keep
ing poultry are those who have small
farms and utilize every rod of them
for the production OF food or pasture
Tor their stock.

The New Peach Disease.

The disease called Little Peach is
giving serious trouble to orchardists
in New York and Michigan, and the
subject is being investigated by Gov
eminent experts. The cause is due, in
part at least, to fungous growth
which attacks the roots, but the cause
has not been positively proved The
malady somewhat resembles peach vel
lows in it's effect. The main symp-
toms are the small size Of the fruit
without special spots or blotches; the
general feebleness and final following
of the trees ana their gradual decline
and death without apparent cause. The
disease often spreads in a circle from
the tree first attacked. The spread
is slow, generally taking from three
to five years or more to spread through
an orchard. The only remedy yet dis.
covered is to pull out the diseased
trees as soon as the first symptoms
appear, and this course is the one
urged by the agents of the depart
ment.

Handling Fowls in Yards.


Where it is necessary to keep the
fowls confined to houses and yards dur
ing the summer and not much chance
to divide the yards, the best way to
handle them is to have the yards of
four-foot netting, the top covered over
as we'll, and every few weeks move
these yards to a new location, where
fowls have not been the present year.
This is considerable trouble, but it
must be done If chicks and fowls are
kept ON a small area. II it is not pos
sible to let the fowls have range,
then green food must be provided in
some way. A good plan is to give
them some cut grass or weeds at night
just before they go to roost.
A better plan is to rake up the cut
tings following the lawn mower, for
they can consume these short blades
better than grass cut with scythe.
All fowls in confinement ought to be
allowed to run for an hour or two each
night, even though it is necessary for
several people 10 keep them out Of mis-
chief. This run will do them world
Of good, and the egg results will pay
for the trouble of watching them.
Don't forget the necessity for an
abundance of fresh water several
times daily.

ELUSIVE BANK BOOK.
One City Institution Counts Upon Five
Day Being Lost.

d
IF we don't have at least five per-
sons every day come in here to give
notice of their lost bank books, we
think it unusual" said cashier OF one
of the city banks recently. Il haven't
any theories about it, but it is a fact
that there are twice as many OF these
books lost in the summer time as there
are in the winter
LAS soon as a book is reported lost
a check is made against it in the bank
and the loser is requested to advertise
the loss For from fortnight to thir-
ty days ensuing no money can be With
drawn on that account, unless the book
shall be found If not found the de-
position must apply for a new book
Generally an affidavit must first be
made that the loser cannot find the
book; that it has not been transferred
or assigned.
''All this is scarcely necessary, but it
makes a bank absolutely safe in re-
spect to that deposit, and it puts the
depositor to enough trouble to make
him or her careful thereafter. Every
thing having been performed as out.
lined, the depositor may get a new
book, which means opening new &C.
count as accounts are never dupli-
Gated.
'In my experience of many years l
do not recall case where finders have
presented books in hopes of withdraw
ing money. 1t would be almost i'm
possible for person not the owner
of the book to withdraw cent on the
account. At the time Of the original
deposit the depositor, before getting a
book, has to answer certain questions
which are framed to fix the depositor's
identity, and to protect the depositor.
The depositor must also leave an auto
graph on the bank register. Whenever
money is withdrawn these questions
must be answered and the autograph
attached to an order. This is an eff
fectual test. Each book is numbered
and bears the depositor's name.
I'VE have been asked il depOsitors
would not be better protected if banks
omitted the name from the book and
simply numbered it. We can see no
advantage in that. The plan would
not defeat the purposes of a thief, for
one who would steal bank book
would know the name of the owner,
and the withdrawal of deposits is so
well guarded that even with the own
er's name finder conld not get mon
ely from the bank.
There are probably from 200 to
1900 books lost every year of which
400 or 500 eventually turn up. That
means from one-third to two-ffths Of
l per cent of the whole number of
books out disappear, and one-third of
that number gets back to the owners.
Where the rest go is a puzzle not to
be solved" -Chicago Tribune

Handling Baxs or gram
In growing sections more OF
less grain in bags has to be handed
by man-power and this becomes con-
siderable of a burden after a tune.
A device for assisting in this work
may be easily constructed by any
handy man. Set a heavy post in the
ground SO that it will stand about two
and one-half feet above the surface;
then take a heavy board, the wider
the better, and about ten feet long
Cut two pieces Of board wedge-shape
and fasten to the lower edge OF the
board. Cut these pieces so that when
they rest on the ground with the other
end of the board resting on the beVeled
top of the post the whole thing IS
firm.
Then have a hook formed with a
short handle, such a hook as Is USED

. strawberry planting.


Most fruit growers are familiar with
the pot-grown strawberry plants orer-
ed by nurserymen for setting in the
summer, says the indianapolis News.
AS rule such plants are too expen-
sive to set in any considerable num-
Der, but this is an ideal way to OBJ
tain plants Of new sorts for testing;
though much more costly than the lay
er plants one will get from them a
crop, next summer, of sufficient size to
determine the desira bility Of the va
riety. Then, too, it is possible to In
crease ones own plantation by taking
from the old beds the new plants and
setting them out in the new beds any
time this month To do this with the
best results, cut the runner which con-
meets the new plant with the parent,
then week later, just after rain,
dig up the young plant with a liberal
amount of soil attached to the roots
and set it with the soil on the roots
in the new bed.
With care not plant will be lost
in the transplanting and these plants
will give one crop Of berries next sum-
mer nearly equal to those from year.
old-set plants. The precaution to take
is to have the lump Of soil aunere to
the roots so that the growth Of the
young plant will not be materially
disturbed by the transplanting. Where
but a few hundred plants are to be
reset one can easily supply the water
to the soil necessary to make the soil
stick to the roots.
