to be kept up throughout the entire

During the season of cultivation
there is no time when the crops can
not be proftably worked, except when
crops are laid by, "the man with the

Cure for Kicking Cows

In answer to request in the Ohio
Farmer for a method to keep a COW
from kicking, q. w. Lee submits the
following plan: Some years ago We
obtained a good butter COW, but an in.
veterate kicker. Numerous plans had
been used to break the habit, but to no
avail After some thought we pro-
cured a fifteen inch strip of wood, put
hole in both ends, large enough for
Il hame strap, and then buckled it on
the cows leg. She kicked for some
time, but could only lift her foot and
kick backward, while l milked her
with ease After using this method for
awhile she would permit even a child
to milk her.

and grass are the greatest hindrances
to successful farming and only by
constant pulling and hoeing can the

Right Care of the Harness.

Right Care of the Harness.
A good harness costs too much to
be allowed to go to pieces sooner than
is necessary. The following direc-
ton for the care of harness are from
the Harness Gazette:
If properly cared for there is many
years use in a well made harness. If
neglected, the best made harness will
last but short time.
Moisture is the great enemy of
leather and the first aim should be to
remove it. 1t is not an uncommon
thing to find harness wet with rain
or moisture from the horse, hung up
dry with the traces tied into knots,
the rains rolled up, the pads and brid-
les hung upon pins, without a mo-
ment's time having been spent on
them to remove mud or moisture.
In a little time the leather dries,
the strapping becomes set to a great
er or less extent, taking the shape
given it when wet, SO that when sub
sequently Strengthened out the stitching
is damaged.
Unless harness leather is kept soft
and pliable it soon loses its strength.
To keep it in good condition care
must be had to have it we'll filled with
grease Mud is a persistent enemy
to leather 1t sucks the grease from
the leather while drying. In cases
where the mud is of a clayey nature,
its action is to harden the leather.
Then it cannot be restored to it's ori-
ginal condition. The worst enemy
to harness is the sweat from the ami
NAL. 1t penetrates leather, stitching,
and to and around the iron. Owing
to its salty nature, it rusts or rOts
all it comes in contact with.
With such enemies to contend with
it becomes necessary to adopt meas
ures to conteract their bad influences.
The first step to be taken is to re-
move all foreign matter from the sur
face This may be done by the use
of tepid water and Crown soap, US
ing no more water than is really neces-
sary to remove the foreign matter.
After the washing, dry the straps
with a chamois, and rub them well
with a greasy rag. If the leather has
been thoroughly wet the straps should
be unbuckled and then well washed.
Where possible, remove the mount
ings and after cleaning them warm
the bolt ends before screwing them
into nuts The heat will dry out
whatever moisture that may have got
in around the nuts.
When hanging harness remember
that light and air drive away moisture,
preserve the leather from mould and

Rotation of Garden Crops in

A correspondent. of the Southern
Ruralist, writing from Marion county
Fla, tells what he has done in the way
of gardening on a small scale. He was
quite successful, but no more so than
you may be if you will fertilize as
heavily, plant as closely and take as
good care of your crop.

Always has Gentle Horses.

1t is common expression to speak
OF breaking a colt Yet it is not the
proper one at all. The colt should be
SO trained that it will not need any
breaking. A writer tells, in Farm and
Flreside, how he manages:
L always have good, gentle horses
The first lesson is given when the
colt is just few days old. l tie the
dam so as not to be hindered by her.
L catch the colt and hold it until it
gets quiet and over its scare Then
L place one arm around the neck near
the body and the other behind hips
where the breeching works, and then
say Get up, at the same time Civ
ing the colt push. In little while
1t will learn to obey every command
1t can be taught to back by saying
back at the same time pushing it
back. When it obeys give it an ap-
pie or little sugar or salt By work
ing this way you will be surprised
how soon it will obey you.
| When going to the pasture | gen.
orally have bite of something for the
colts. In training them in this way
they expect something when they
see me, and they are never hard to
catch, or never seem to dread or fear
man.
| In teaching a colt the word whoa,
| do it by holding. Or tie the dam
and then tie the colt near her After
it has quit struggling l say whoa,
at the same time rubbing it. In a
little while it will learn when you say
whoa that it means stop.
When breaking the colt to work

es. Having someone to lead, | get
behind and say get up when my
helper leads it forward; at the same
time | give the traces a slight pull
If the colt frets or gets mad, | cease

gets used to collar pressure and goes
quietly. After breaking in this way,
| hitch to something heavier, always
| being careful not to get them fretted.
In working a colt L never get in a
| hurry, or pull a load but few steps,
letting them stop and rest. L find a
light sled or a drag the best thing to
hitch to. | hitch them to a sled, Civ
ing a side pull about a step or just
| enough to move it sideways little, |
and next time | go little further and |
when they will move it readily to

After the colt has learned to pull, |

Florence SiIls and Helen Germs
Take Trolley Ride The Sills
Girl Goes On.
MAY BE In BALTIMORE,
Secured a Small Sum of Money and
Boarded a Trolley Car for New
BrunswicI---Gerns Girl Soon Comes
Back, But the Other Is Believed to
Have Taken Train ut New Bruns-
wick to Visit Baltimore Relatives.

Florence Sills, thirteen years old,
ran away from the home of Mrs
George Sills, of 236 Madison avenue,
at noon yesterday, and is now
thought to be in Baltimore.
The little girl did not attend school
yesterday afternoon, and in some
way obtained o small sum of money.
Accompanied by Helen Germs, the
daughter of Jacob Germs, she left for
New Brunswick on trolley car. Mrs.
Sills as soon as she discovered that
Florence was missing, went to the
police headquarters and told Ser
geant Durham of the case. He tele-
phoned at once to the New Bruins
wick police and asked them to watch
the trains, as the girl would proba-
bly, go to Baltimore, where she has
relatives. Word was received from
New Brunswick later that a child an
swering the description of Florence,
had taken the 3:12 train for Balti-
more. Whether she reached there is
not yet known. Mrs. Sills, who is a
sister-in-law of the missing girl, Is
nearly prostrated over her disappear
ance and cannot understand why she
left home
The local police are still investigat-
ing and if possible will discover her
whereabouts. The description of the
child is rs follows: Light brown hair,
black shoes and stockings wore a
Russian blouse, with red and white
dots, had on black belt, and is 13
years old.

pany her to New Brunswick, but af-
ter riding short ways on the troll
ley car returned to this city.

FOUR STORY
BUILDING.
Architect Dayton is Preparing
the Plans But Refuses to Tell
Who is Building 1t.

Plans for a four story brick build
ing are now being prepared by Ar
chitect John Dayton. Although the
name of the owner could not be
learned today, 1t will be made public
soon. The new building will, when
completed, be the first structure in
the city that is higher than three
stories. The edillce will be on the
ground floor 37x132 feet, and will
contain an electric passenger elevat-
or. Mr.. Dayton would not tell where
it was to be built, but said it was to
be business building and would be
nearby, which means somewhere near
State and Smith streets. The archi-
tect was told only few days ago to
draw the plans, and the strictest Sc
crecy has been kept regarding the
matter.

Accused Of Stabbing a Man at Perth
Amboy Terra Gotta Works
Yesterday Afternoon.
HIS WIFE VISITS HIM.
Victim Has Left spital
The Accused Cannot be
Released on Bail Until the
Result Of the ARRAY is Known
Caught After a Long Chase.

B. Citto, of 1S9 Washington street,
the alleged stabber of John McCau-
ley, an account of which was given
exclusively in the NEWS yesterday,
was arraigned before Recorder Pick
ersgill this morning, and on request
of Chief Burke, was remanded to
await the injured mans condition.
Elisio Ricci, to whom most of the
Italians go when in trouble, was
present in court, but was not given a
chance to offer bail for Citto, until
the doctors pronounce McCauley out
of danger.
Citto, or Citro, which the name on
the police blotter, when asked yes
| terday afternoon il he had stabbed
McCauley, said he did not use a knife
but had punched him with lead
pencil. 81 didn't hurt him." he add
ed.
Witnesses to the affair say that
Citto had a knife in his possession,
and threw it away after the stabbing.
Searchers are looking for it today.
| The real reason for the stabbing is
not known, but from all reports the
following story is the most authentic.
Citto had gone into the saloon of d.
Isenberg, on Hartford street, at noon
and purchased drink. Later he
went outside and became engaged in
a dispute with McCauley. One who
claims to have been witness, said
yesterday that he heard the two men
quarreling, and saw them walk over
to the factory entrance The men
walked into the driveway east of the
stabbing took place there. Citto,
who was employed there as a day
wheeler, fled at once, and was only
captured after an exciting chase, in
a box car in the Lehigh Valley yards.
The prisoners wife visited him at
the lookup this morning. Chief Burke
on the request of Citto, gave her the
$23 found on him yesterday. The
prisoner will be held here at pres
ent until the condition of the man
in the hospital is known. No time
has been set for the hearing
John T.. Brong, q foreman, employ
ed by the railroad company, while
looking into one of the box cars this
morning, found button containing
a picture of an Italian man, and a
large pocket knife, with three blades.
The largest blade measures three in
ches, and the others are about two
inches in length. What is thought
to be blood is plainly seen on the
weapon. The car in which the knife
was found proved to be the same one
in which Citto was captured yester-
day, and in all probability he is the
owner.
| Word was received from the hos
pital at o'clock today that McCau-
ley was a trifle better and would re-
cover. He was removed to his home
! this afternoon at his own request.
The knife will be held as evidence
when Citto is tried for atrocious as
sault, which will be charge if McCau-
| ley RECEIVERS.
