Two Kinds of House1seeper..

There are just two kinds of house
keepers in this world, she Of the dusty
parlor and immaculate kitchen and she
in whose domain conditions are re-
versed. We don't know which kind Is
preferred by the average husband, but
sensible man would certainly choose
the first woman for his wife. She
knows the true inwardness of the house
keeping problem. She knows that to
be tidy Is not necessarily to be clean.
We are acquainted with an exceed
ingly neat family of adults. Nothing
can surpass the tidiness of their house,
with its comfortable cushioned parlor
chairs and staid furniture. The mis-
tress was once heard to say that she
kept the shades down most of the time
because she did so hate dust, and the
air always appeared to be full of it
when the sun streamed in. But that
house smells musty somehow. You
know that pungent smell lingering in
rushes out when the front door is
opened, and callers have been known
to sneeze before they had time to ask
If the family were home. We suspect
that If all the dark corners were ex-
plored discoveries would be made.
Then we know another house where
the shutters are always thrown open,
SO that the notes of dust have much
opportunity to prance religiously in the
the sunbeams; and we confess to GER
tain untldiness about its interior.
Sometimes the polished sideboard be-
trays finger marks owing to light
covering of dust. Sometimes the
baby's toys litter the mantelshelf.
But then the whole dwelling is SO
wholesome. No mustiness is there.
You may roam from cellar to garret,
and nowhere will you come on any
undue accumulation of rubbish, any
thing unclean. The kitchen utensils
shine from securing, and the kitchen
sink Is as clean as the china ON tho
dresser.
'"Truth In the Inward parts was tho
favorite text of an old Scotch preacher,
and 1t applies very well to housekeep-
Ing, the test of which Is thoroughness
all the way through. Exchange.

In the Philippines the natives call
the American schools "clerk shops"
this because they claim that as soon
us Il Filipino gets educated lie knows

Of this kind in this country.

The best all round remedy for rats
is cats. A half dozen cats, preferably
old tabbies with a kitten or two, If
given ration of new milk twice n
day will put in most of their time in
laying for the rats. This beats traps,
ferrets, poison and all other remedies
ever tried.

A friend of ours tells us that he this
season secured over FIVE tons Of clover
and timoth. hay to the acre on piece
of good prairie soil. There were two
cuttings, one in July and the other In
September, and the third crop was the
best of feed in late October. August
rains and q rich soil did 1t.

A man never makes any money cut

A man never makes any money cut
Of a machine unless it is working.
Now, the COW Is a machine pure and
simple, and If she is not kept at work
there Is no profit in keeping her, and
to get something out Of her there must
be something put into her, and the man
who thinks he can make money by
scrimping the feed Of his cows Is very
shortsighted. The COW should be fed
up to the limit of her ability to assfm-
ilate food If she is to be made Hpoit>
able.

The men who are making the most
money in feeding beef Snimals are
those who know how to take well bred
calves and 80 feed them that ut one
year old they will sell fer $50 or more
as baby beef. This type of beef is in
much favor and bringa the top OF the
market. and then the gain In flesh
made by the young animal Is always
more cheaDly secured than on the ma
tured one.

Where the writer lives thousands Of

Where the writer lives thousands Of
sheep are being shipped in from Mon
tana and Wyoming and being turned
into the corn fields to harvest the crop
and incidentally fatten themselves for
market. The plan works very satisfac-
torily unless there is too much rain;
then there is some waste. The sheep
is dainty feeder and rarely wastes
it's food, as does the hog. This plan
has many advantages--it saves the cost
of harvesting the crop, 1t fertillzes the
field and it gets all the weeds cleaned
up II the sheep are turned in early
enough.

Reports Of hog cholera are beginning
to come in from different sections, and
so we may begin to look out for oil
sorts of fake cures for this disease. 1t
Is just as well to remember that in
spite of oil the claims made that this
plague can be cured there is no dlscov-
cred cure for 1t. The prompt disposal
Of all woll animals, the isolation and
starvation of the sick ones and COM
plete change of location seem to be the
only course to pursue when an out
break occurs. The overfeeding with
new corn seems to always invite the
disease, and 1t is probably true that if
oil hogs were fed better balanced ra-
tion the disease would largely disap-
pear.

If one will interview the claim
agents of the railway companies he
will find that there is far more blood
ed stock in the country than he dream
ed Of. 1t is rare that any critter with
pedigree less than n yard long ever
gets mixed up with freight locomo-
tive. Assessors might get valuable
points from railway claim agents.

With a pretty large crop of good
corn in farmers hands all through the
corn belt good many are wondering
whether they had better hold the crop,
now worth about 35 cents, feed 1t and
make meat out of 1t or sell It, The
crop this year Is n safer proposition
to hold than for several years past. for
1t ripened naturally, -unhurt by either
frost or drought, and will keep well.
The government estimate of the crop,
2,0o0,0000 900 bushels, II correct, would
seem to forecast lower prices ia any
but these prosperous years, but the
fact remains that there is no probabil-
ity Of cheap corn, there seeming to be
a good demand for every bushel. The
truth Is that SO many new and ,mpor-
tant uses have been discovered for
corn that 1t will never be cheap again.
II we could buy good feeders around
8 cents we would feed part Of the
crop Mt least. If we were paying in
terest on obligations we would sell
enough to square up. If we could not
get the steers and owed no man we
would hold the crop till next summer.

We are asked what the post timber
Of the. future Is to consist Of, qucs-
ton of no little Importance, in view of
the rapid destruction Of all our forests
and the almost entire absence of any
well directed effort to replace them.
There Is more than possibility that
the fence post of the future will be
made OF cement. Cement posts are
already being made and used with sue
cess. The future Is quite likely to see
machines costing but little which will
enable every farmer to make his own
fence posts and secure posts which
will be practically indestructible. When
such posts can be furnished at 25
cents apiece, as they will be, there Is
no need to worry over the falling sup
ply Of oak and cedar posts, which are
now worth 15 cents each.

Little and often should be the rule In
the application Of oil to machinery and
fertilizer to the soil. We have some
times noted that where twenty-five or
thirty loads of manure were spread on
an acre of land no betteR pesults were
obtained than where one -fs1ird as much
was applied with q manure spreader.

One is sometimes bothered to decide
just when Is the best time to dispose of
farm produce. With all perishable
products there is but one way, and that
to let them go as soon as they are ready
for the market, but with those things
which one can hold without serious
waste and loss 1t is different. In the
case of fat stock OF any kind they are
almost always fed at loss after they
are finished, so far as gain is concern
ed, and the market must advance to
warrant holding and feeding them.
With grain the matters of interest,
shrinkage and waste by vermin must
not be lost sight of, three things which
often Offset any Increased price OBJ
tanned as result OF holding. II a
product which can be held Is selling
below the cost of production we would
always hold 1t; If the price 1t will com
mand Will give fair profit we would
sell.

We have two or three Inquiries about
mushrooms, their e0ItdFe and where

be procured OF almost any up to date
seed store.

Tho crop season Of 1905 is over, and
there are for nearly every farmer lot
Of experiences which 1t will pay him
well to consider Some lessons have
been learned which are well worth re-
membering One which suggests itself
as of more than ordinary Importance
is that the year has shown that good
60 per cent stand of corn and that
corn with wet feet in June and July
will not produce moro than half crop.

A farmer. who sold nice fat heifer
to butcher agreed to take in part pay
quarter of the beef. When he got
the bill for the beef he did some
scratching Of the head and some think
ing and wondered what sort Of an all
round fool he was anyhow to give that
butcher about one-half of that nice beef
critter just for the killing. He went
home and told his neighbors about the
deal, and the upshot is that co-opera-
tive beef furnishing society has been
organized. A beef is killed each week
and equltably divided up, each member
furnishing the beef In turn, and the
butchers wagon is seen no more in
that community. The middleman some
times cuts his own throat.

We are asked about the necessity
and value Of windbreaks for the or
chard where the orchard Is planted in
an open country. Wo regard the wind
break for this purpose as almost indis-
pensable. but 1t should be put In the
right place, which is on the south and
west side Of the orchard and not be
less than six rods from the nearest or
chard trees. The apple tree can never
hold its own In competition with for
est trees in the matter Of light, air,
moisture and sunshine. The windbreak
does much to protect the orchard from
the fierce summer winds which often
almost strip the trees Of their fruit.
