LIVE STOCK NOTES.

We take 1t for granted that good
many of our readers have harrows
that have been run six or seven years
and that the teeth in them are getting
rather blunt. II SO, remove the teeth
and take them to the shop for a sharp
ening the next time you go to the
blacksmith. II the harrow is all right
every other way it will be the means
of making almost a new harrow out
of it. We mean as far as the work
it will do is concerned. Blacksmiths
usually charge a cent apiece for sharp
ening harrow teeth.
When some men take up farming
they put the most of their money into
a big house, perhaps mortgaging the
land TO pay for it. A few years later
someone else has big house and
farm. too. Would it not be better to
pay for the farm first, live in the old
house for awhile and build the new
one later. when it can be paid for
without going in debt?
When feeding sheep remember that
it pays to keep the feeding rack clean
at all times The ewes with lambs
should be given such foods as will
produce good flow of milk.
Plan the rotation so as to save the
fertility of the soil. Make a sketch
of the farm, showing where each crop
is planted. The sketch will be of
value as reference in the future.
look we'll to the .are of the horses
feet. Keep them clean and give them
a good brushing night and morning.
The horses pulling harrow all day
get tired in their feet just as well as
the fellow who drives the team does.
When lambihg season is at hand the
persons looking after breeding ewes
should give them almost constant at
tention day and night. They Should
be looked after at least couple of
times during the night
Don't be narrow minded it leads to
ruts; be willing to be convinced A
broad tire will carry heavy load
safely where narrow one will sim,
under one lighter.
The farmer who gets an idea once in
awhile is on the road to success. Re-
member that strong thoughts are iron
nails driven in the mind, that moth
ing can draw out.
Plan to sow rape this year Sow it
with the oats and when the corn crop
is ready to lay by SOW rape in the
corn for the sheep to feed on in the
fall and winter.
Where summer feeding of steers is
practiced and plenty of pasture is
available watch the feed and see that
the change of feeding methods is made
gradually.

feed and too little exercise. Keep the

Just as sure as a farmer makes life
one grand round of money-getting,
forgetting the beautiful things money
can do. and the happiness it will
bring If We but use it rightly, just
as sure that man will miss the best
there is in this world and the whole
that may be stored up in the next.
The wise farmer will learn all he
can in the winter from farmers in
stitutes, bulletins and books about
forage crops ald catch crops that hcip
out in droughty times and fill the
barns so full that they do not become
empty before stock feed grows again.
If you must grumble and growl at
your wife about the dinner or any
thing else, don't do it in the pres
ence of the farm hand or visitors. 1t
mortifies your helpmate. and you de-
serve to be taken down peg or two
for your lack of manners.
Free discussion at farmers insti-
tutes is good, but the voluble crank
with hobby and the man who has
private interests to serve should not
be permitted to monopolize the meet
ings.
Do not be afraid to talk to people of
the things they are successful in
The world is a jolly sociable old world
anyway, and If you do happen to get
a rebuff some time just note that it
is the exception and not the rule.

In testing seed a test does not
amount to much that is not a com
rlete test. Putting a few grains in a
bottle or box will not answer The
best way to test seed corn is to lay
out all the seed corn on planks of the
barn floor, numbering each ear. Take
six grains from each ear. two from
the butt, two from the middle and
two from the tip end. Fill a shallow
box half full of moist sand over
which is placed cloth. Number
squares and place another cloth over
it and put some dirt on it. keeping
all moist and let it be in the kitchen
two days. Lift the cloth and dirt
and the whole will be displayed so
that it will be easy to see what corn
is not going to germinate. Such ears
as are not good can be selected by
the number and thrown out This is
the best way to test seed corn of
which we have any knowledge

The operation on the young mans heart took
place a week ago last Tuesday. Only slight
hopes were held out for the mans recovery. 1t

forty eight hours after the operation When
that time passed and he kept on getting better

SaVage's death came suddenly An autopsy
showed that death had not been caused by the
operation, but by the wound in the shoulder,
which had penetrated the lung and caused in
