Mules in Demand.

Working mules are in good demand.
Mule values alone have jumped in the
last two years from $251, $4,000 to
$42S, 064, 900, according to the Phila-
delphia Record, a sum greater than
the estimated value of all the auto
mobiles in the country, including ma
chimes costing $100, 900, 900 that are
now on the scrap heap.
With these figures before them,
breeders and dealers are perhaps war
ranted in holding to the belief that
without putting the horse out of bust
ness, it will keep the motor cars busy
to catch up with the long-eared n.y.
birds, whose top notes so resemble
their wi
Grooming is as necessary to keep
a horse in good condition as feeding.
If the horses skin is coated and his
hair filled with dust, dirt and dan
druff the pores of the skin which form
outlets for the sweat glands are clog
ged and matter that should pass off
thus is thrown back into the animals
system often creating disease condi-
tons. A daily application of curry
comb and brush and elbow grease will
present the application of many me-
dicamentS.
While the demands of the market
are principally for geldings, the farm
work should be largely done by mares

each year. The feasibility of this
plan has been abundantly shown by
experience.
1t is more conducive to the health
and hardness of horse stock to be
kept in barns that are well ventilated
and not warmed by artificial heat,
than in close and steam-heated stables
Pure air is essential to pure blood and
good health as Is pure food.

Souse of Pics Feet.

Another substantial addition to the
lunch hamper for a fishing or camping
party, where men grown ups are In
the ascendency, are picked pigs feet
made in the good old Dutch way. The
souse should be made a day or two
before using, but it will keep for days.
They may be eaten cold or broiled
over the campfire, as preferred. Put
the desired number of well-cleansed
pigs feet in a kettle, cover with boil
Ing water, and cook for half an hour.
Remove and plunge into cold water.
Drain and return to the kettle. Cover
with water and vinegar in equal propoR
tons, adding to each gallon of the
liquor a tablespoonful of salt, two
tablespoonful of sugar, a tablespoon
full OF whole peppers, a bay leaf, three
blades of mace, four large onions cut
fine, and a teaspoonful of thyme tied
in a little bag. Cook until the feet are
very tender, remove and pack in a
stone jar. Strain the liquor over the

FEEDING Young Turkeys.

Feed the poultry a nourishing food
and plenty of green food. just what
they will eat up clean in a short time.
] put a fresh laid egg in cold water
and bring it to a head, boiling it one
half or one hour, which makes 1t
crumbly. chop it very fine, shell n
all, mixing a little chick grit in just
in the morning. This is their feed
for the first two daKs. The third
morning l gather fresh dandellon
leaves and chop fine with egg and q
sour milk curd. This is their break
fast, never forgetting in the morning a
little chick grit. At Don | feed a
little curd; at night | chop onions or
rather onion tops, if have them, n
egg and curd. This constitutes their
feed for three or four weeks. After
that | mix chick food and Oat meal.
but always give this first food mixed
with it, adding the other foods as a
change. 1t is surprising how fast tur-
keys will grow on this food. If you
do not overfeed, you will never have
any trouble with indigestion, and at
six weeks old they will be plump and
fat and grow right along.
So many people write and ask how
many eggs do l cook. Bless their
hearts. | never boil but one, and only
feed half of that to quite a large flock.
A little turkey for the first three days
of its life will not eat more than a
small bird, and what they will eat
could be taken on the point of a pen
knife.-Mrs. ]. E. Gray, in Poultry
Success.

She Experimented.

A little girl of five was taken to
church one Sunday, and listened with
unexpected attention to the sermon,
which graphically told the story of
the stilling of the tempest On the Sea
of Galilee, and how Christ walked on
the waves. In the afternoon her moth
er missed her and began an anxious
search of the house. AS she neared
the bathroom she heard sounds of
splashing, and hurried to the door to
behold a small, excited face peering
over the rim of the big white tub, and
to hear a small, excited voice ex-
claim: Say, mamma, this walking
on the water is quite a trick

FARMER AND
PLANTER
SOME THINGS TO DO.
Strengthen Your Terraces, Destroy
Bushes, Weeds and Briers.

Now that farmers are nearly
through working their crops there are
some things needing attention which
have heretofore been put off. Ar ter
races should be plowed to strengthen
them and to destroy the weeds and
grass on them. All breaks in them
should be repaired and the low or
weak places should be built up.
1t is an acknowledged fact tina. ev-
cry farmer should raise all the lot AID
stable manure possible and now IS
the time to haul a large lot of leaves
and straw. If it is not desirable to
spray the lot all over it can be hauled
and placed in front of the stable door;
and in the lowest places in the TOR.
Weeds around the yard and lot can
be cut and got out of the way. This
will help the appearance of things
and keep the place from looking SO
suaky and besides will destroy thou
sands of weed seeds.
All tools and farm implements AND
machinery should be placed carefully
away ulu6T d SuSltct. IL -
and paint brush can be used on some
of it to a good advantage. Do not
leave any farm implements in the
field or out in the weather. 1t is poor
policy, after furnishing the farm with
such things, to let them be ruined by
carelessness.
Bushes and briars should be shrub
bed in the pastures to let the grass
grow. Many pastures are almost
worthless for stock On account of the
growth of other things thar grass.
Remember that grass does not grow
where briars, bushes and trees are
allowed to take charge of the pasture.

Reacvate Skirt.

An old black skirt may be success
fully cleaned as follows: First of all,
brush and shake it we'll to get rid of
the dust, then brush carefully all over
with a good hard clothes brush dipped
in malt vinegar, using plenty of the
vinegar. The skirt should then be
hung out in the air for an hour to dry,
and then pressed on the wrong side
over a damp cloth. The ordinary
serge or cloth skirt will be found to
look like new after this treatment.

Physicians Recommend Castoria

CASTORIA has met with pronounced favor on the part Of physicians, pharma-
- ceuhcal societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with
results most gratifying. The extended use Of Castoria is unqusionahy the
result Of three facts: Evt-The indiputate evidence that it is harmless:
sseof-That it not only alays stomach pains and ques the nerves, but assmi-
lahs the food: 7Ms-t is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil.
It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic
and does not stupdy. It is unlike Soothing Syrup, Batemans Drops Godfeya
Cordial etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how
ever is to expose danger and record the means Of advancing health. The day
tor poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To
our knowledge Castona is a remedy which produces cQuposrre and health, by
regulating the syaem-not by supplying it-and our readers are entitled to
