FAMILY HAS FOURTEEN
PAIRS OF TWINS IN 1T
special to The Herald.

RAVENNA, Ohio, June 2.-E. r.
Brown of this city, father of eight sets
of twins, has just heard from his eldest
son in st. Louis that the latter's wife
several days ago presented him with
the sixth set of twins. In each case
they are boy and girl.
Brown says his family was numeri-
cally strong long before President
Roosevelt propagated his race suicide
idea. Mrs. Brown, who died eleven
years ago, was full blooded Cherokee
Indian.
At the Worlds fair in 1893 the twins
were weighed and aggregated over two
tons, the biggest being 800 pounds.

The dairy farm which would pro
duce wholesome milk must have a
good water supply and plenty of it.
1t would be no exaggeration to say
that a plentiful supply of pure water
is one of the pillars of successful
dairy farming. Unfortunately, many
farmers are sorely tried for the want
of pure water, and in consequence suf-
fer much inconvenience, annoyance,
and financial loss. A constant-run-
ming stream, free from contamination
of any kind, is the thing to be de-
sired; the bubbling brook, the gentle
rivulet, or the majestic eowing river
are all excellent, and rarely give
cause for alarm or anxiety as to their
sweetness and purity. Generally
speaking, pits and ponds furnish the
drinking places on most farms.

Carry your religion into your farm

Poultrymen as a rule prefer eggs
from two-year-old hens for Matching.
Enthusiasm is as important an as
set in farming as in any other bust
ness.
The breaks in your neighbours
fence are easier to see sometimes
than those in your own.
Crumbly cheese can be remedied in
the manufacture. A variety of con-
ditions may give rise to this fault.
Let the garden be half the living.
The garden plot may not only be q
money maker but a health giver.
A good show for the pure maple
sugar product now is the new pure
food law. Will help the farmer some.
Rhubarb needs lots Of manure, it
requires from 25 to SO loads per acre
annually to secure a paying crop.
People engaged in chicken raising
as business have proved without
doubt that single kind kept to itself
makes the most money.
Make it a practice every spring to

will be surprised as the years roll by
to see what showing you will make

A hump-backed lamb has an empty
stomach or something worse. Find
out the trouble and then remedy it.
Perhaps the eve has not enough
milk to nourish the little fellow.
Remember that cloudy warm
weather is the best for the sproutine
of seeds and for this reason the seeds
of the garden should be planted at g
time to secure these conditions.
The proper handling of machinery
on the farm is vital factor not only
in the results obtained but in the
wearing qualities of the machine
Don't blame the machine for you
own inefficiency or carelessness.
From experiments at the Maine eX
}, pertinent station the indications arr
that by selecting best layers TO
breeding purposes, and by prope
feeding, the average egg yield of
flock can be increased.
The annual butchering on the farm
is a great event to the country boy

not become a brutalizing influenc
upon the younger children of the fan
