HAS GONE TO SWEDEN
Mr.. II. A. Norman Will Make Flying
Trip to the Old Country. Will Re-
turn With His Father

MIR. H. "A Norman left last week for
q flving trip to Sweden. He will re-
main in the Fatherland but one week.
the rest of the time being spent enroute.
1t seems that his father who has been
in Sweden for some years started for
America, but on account of his age and
enfeebled condition he was not allowed
to proceed alone and was returned to
Sweden. Now Halver goes to accom-
pany his father on the trip to America.
1t seems too bad that Mr.. Norman
should take such long journey and
then have but a week to spend in his
native land, but his business interests
are such that he does not feel that he
can spare more time. We hope that he
will have pleasant voyage, find his
father in good health and make safe
return.

continue to spread the disease.
Many OF the rotten plums continue
to hang on the tree till winter and
are known as mummied plums. They
have shrunken and dried till they are
hard and unsightly, but to them cling
enough spores to spread the disease
the coming year. In some cases, even

side the plum retains it's life through
the winter and under favorable con-
ditions in the spring begins to grow
and will produce a new crop of spores.
These spores are scattered everywhere
and even fall and terminate on the
blossoms and tender leaves. We show
a cluster of these mummied plums.
They should be picked off now and
burned. Not one should be left on the
trees or on the ground. Next spring,

so affected should be picked off and
burned at once.

Grit for Ducks.

The keeper Of ducks must remem-
Der that grit is as necessary to ducks
as it is to chickens, if they are fed
the same. The duck that is COM
PEELED to live on fish may not need
the amount of grit that the usual
chicken does, but under modern con.
editions few ducks are fed largely on
fish The streams and ponds do not
abound in small fish to the extent
they used to, and in winter time es-
pecially the duck is fed on corn
and other grain. This fact should
mot be lost sight Of. In some of the
bran mashes coarse sand should be
mixed to help in the work of diges-
ton. In addition there should be
in each Enclosure for ducks box of
grit, and If it is easily obtainable
pounded oyster shells should be CIV
zen. The two kinds of grit should not,
however. be mixed. That the birds
need these is shown by the fact that
they take them greedily when they
have been for time without them.
Keep the boxes we'll filed.

Ice on the Farm. =.

Ice is one of the great luxuries. OF
necessity. It's use has many phases.
1t is exceedingly valuable ip the dairy
all through the summer, and by its
help the enterprising farmer is able
to put on the market higher quality
OF milk, butter and cream than would
otherwise be possible. Ice enters into
the problem of food preservation, and
the farmer that has an abundant sup.
ply of it can indulge in the luxury OF
fresh meat much oftener in the sum-
mer than he otherwise could. The
farmers wife always appreciates the
advantage Of having ice that she can
use as she wishes in her culinary op.
erations.
Ice is one of the things that Is
North, but 1t requires some work to
secure it. However, the time of ice
harvest comes when no other harvest
can be gathered. Many of our farm
ers have ponds that are large enough
and clear enough to provide first
class quality of ice. Where the, farmer
lacks such pond he can generally
Guy his ice from some neighbor at a
cost of about ten cents ton, he to do
the cutting and hauling. The inhabit.
ant in the city pays all the way from
IS to 81 per ton for the ice that is
delivered at his door. The aggregate
cost to tie farmer, including cost Of
hauling, interest on value of building
for storage, packing material and pack
ing should not be over SO cents ton
We are glad to know that many Of
our farmers have built first-class ice
houses and every year fill them with
enough ice to last till cold weather
comes the following year. The best
ice houses are those that are square
and as near a cube as possible. In
such a house ice may be so packed
that it will present the least possible
surface toward the outside, and will
produce the least possible lateral pres
sure. The walls must be we'll built,
to prevent the bullying of the building.
A building that is very tall will permit
the ice to sag to one side and this
will cause the bullying of the building
on the side against which the ice
comes. We have seen such buildings
with great props against them to pre-
vent still greater damage.
In building an ice house for farm
use, few principles need to be OBJ
served. The first of these is to give
perfect drainage. The house should be
either on an eminence and have a nat.
ural drain, or it must have tile laid
to carry off the water as fast as it is
made by the melting of ice. If water
is permitted to accumulate, it causes
the more rapid melting and consequent
loss of ice. The walls of the house
should be built double, to give good
sized air space. The packing of the
ice should be carefully done, as this is
a very important factor in preventing
the melting Of the ice.

Buying New Stock.


There is no better time of year
than this at which to purchase new
stock. All of the breeders have a
large supply of young stock on their
hands and that stock has now de-
veloped enough to show it's character
istics. They are, most of them, anx-
ious to get rid of some of their stock,
to reduce expenses of carrying the
birds through the winter. Many of
the poorest birds will be sent to the
butcher and with them every year
go some others that lack point or
two in some fancy requirement. The
breeders feel that if they are not sure
of selling these birds they must dis.
pose of them at once. Young birds
are harder and can be transported
to distance better than older birds.
Also, il pullets are to be purchased
it is better to get them now, so that
they may have a chance to become
acquainted with their new quar-
ters before beginning to lay. Fowls
show inconsistencies very greatly, and
to change their location just as
the laying season is opening is to re.
tard that operation for a time If
the buyer obtains his birds now he
will have an opportunity of watching
them and forming some opinion as
to their laying ability, which opinion
will be of value when the birds are
to be penned for the production of
eggs for the early hatches.

The General-Purpose Horse.

The thought of general purpose
horse is one very firmly fixed in the
mind of the average farmer that has
not settled down as specialist. We
often hear the specialist say there is
no such thing and that the general
purpose idea is humbug. We are
ready to admit that people often hold
to this idea when special purpose
idea would bring them greater meas.
ure of success.

Symmetry of Fowls.

The symmetry of fowls consists
an the harmony of all parts and
:ah coloTs. Every breed has a
standard of perfection of form and
cekAr. The judge has an ideal in
his mind as to what constitutes
perfect form and perfect color.
While judges differ as to the details
to be worked out. yet there is sur.
prising amount of agreement among
poultry judges. The symmetry of the
bird probably counts for more than
any ether one thing in the minds OF
both Judge and visitors.

Hands OFF the Butter,

In many of our farm homes people
work the butter with their hands.
Ihls method is, however, objected to
by all scientific dairymen. In our
pest creameries the butter is never
touched by the human hand. The
cream is churned, the buttermilk
rinsed off in the churn. It is then
iaoled out and put on the mechanical
outer worker, where the wooden roll
ers go over it and where the salt is
worked into it by the wooden rollers.
II is rolled into balls by the machine
and by wooden ladies is packed into
TUBS or pushed into molds that cut it
into pound packages. The hand never
touches it.. The objection to the hand
touching the butter is that moisture
is always working out of the human
BODY, and there is always effete' mat
ter with it. People that eat such but
ter. if they ever think Of it at all, must
object to the results. Also such han
ding is more than likely to add to- the
butter some form Of vegetable life
that may develop in the body Of the
outter. 1t is perfectly easy on the
farm to wash the butter and work it
Wltnout touching it with the hands.
Inc milk can be drawn out of the
cnurn, water poured in, the churn be
slVen two or three turns to rinse out
the buttermilk, and that drawn off.
Inc butter may either be sailed in the
schurn or placed on butter worker
ana there sailed. The wooden butter
worker will cost but few dollars and
VIII last Indefinitely. With it the but
ter can be worked in two or three
minutes. In fact, it is only necessary
10 run the corrugated roller over the
butter two or three times. 1t can then
De packed into jars or can be packed
into wooden mods holding exactly a
pound. Even for use in the farm
aouse, the consumers will feel much
better If they know that the human
hands have never touched the butter
they are eating.

Brown Rot Of Plums.

Last summer the writer visited the
farm of prominent fruit grower of
Northern Illinois. He had a consider
able number of plum trees, but the
fruit was worthless, as it had been
taken by the brown rot. The trees
had bloomed full and the prospects for
large crop of. fine plums had been
excellent. But before the time came
to gather the plums the dreaded brown
rot appeared and soon spread among
all the trees. The plums soon began
to drop, and the ground was covered
in a few weeks with hundreds of the
decaying plums. Thousands of the
plums still on the trees we're affected
on one side and it was seen that the
crop was ruined.
This disease is known scientifically
as Monilia fructigena. The spores at
tack not only the fruit, but also the
blossoms, leaves and twigs. The proc
ess of it's development is about as fol-
lows: A spore falls on wet plum
and sticks there 1t sends a .filament
into the skin of the plum. This fila
ment develops into a thread-like
growth that permeates the pulp of the
plum everywhere. 1t is the food-gath-
ering power of this mycelium or mass
of threads that causes the breaking

A Question ct Locality.

The practice of Opening up" the
tops Of apple trees is followed by S.
G. Soverhill, of Northern Illinois. Mr..
Soverhill has been orcharding in that
locality for about forty years. The
practice is condemned by Edison Gay.
ord, Of Iowa, who has been orcharding
that state for fifty years. Both men
ave had SO many years Of experience
hat it is not probable that either is
making a mistake regarding the prac.
ices allowable in his vicinity. But
his brings us to the appreciation OF
he fact that conditions enormously
liffer in different localities separated
W only a few hundred miles. We
would like to receive communications
from our leading horticulturists in dif.
'erent states and different localities of
he same state relative to the amount
If sunscald in their neighborhoods and
he general practice of heading trees.
The amount of sunscald existing In
4, neighborhood does not seem to de.
,end on the latitude. Mr.. Gaylord has
accurately defined the process when
le says that it is due to the break
.ng up Of cambium cells by the alter
tate freezing and thawing. But there
!, something more in it than this. fol
eunscald seems to be worse In the
.older parts Of the states than in the
warmer parts, though even in the lat
err some freezing and thawing must

lar south sunscald Is experienced.
