HOW MUCH MAY HE GO IN DEBIT

The question is often raised by the young fellow who has in view starting put on his own hook in farming, How much am I justified in going into debtw The answer to Tthe query is not simple one, as whole lot de bends on the land he proposes to buy, what his previous experience with farm work has been, but more than all else upon the kind of fellow this young man is and the stuff he's made of. If he has the right qualities s-including industry, thrift, perseverance and good health-and has a strong and sensible wife, who is willing to share with him the hard work and economies incident to carving out farm home, it would seem not beyond reason for him to assume an indebtedness of from $6,0O0 to $1O,OOO. Tn one case which came under our notice not long since an in debtedness Of $15,OO0 was assumed a dozen years ago by one of these fel- lows possessing the right stuff, and today he owns a fine POO acre farm free from incumbrance. This success did not come by chance. It was the result of hard work, an exercise of thrift and brains, and it goes without saying that during having and harvest he didn't spend his time loaf1ng around pool rooms and saloons. Another in stance of which we read the other day was of young fellow who went into debt $S,OOO on the purchase of 120 acres. He is following the safest pos sible course to pay for his farm by going into the dairy business, spe- cialty being made of milk route. This man is a German by birth, hard worker, pleasant and agreeable i'll manner and calculates that he will have his farm paid for in about ten years, provided no unforeseen trouble overtakes him. Many young man would not be justified in assuming as large an indebtedness as this, but he could tackle smaller proposition, give it intensive cultivation and secure all most as large returns. Land cannot be bought so cheaply today as twenty or ten years ago, but this is far from
 saving that there are not lots of fine
 chances along the line of securing a
 farm of ones own for the man who
 has perseverance and will to succeed

, It is now quite generally conceded that when a COW holds up her milk it is invariably due to some nervous con
 dition, the result of taking her calf from her, disturbances, mistreatment or strange conditions. Often kindness will overcome the tendency, and if this does not suffice the feeding of little grain at milking time will take up her mind and cause her to'relax to a nor nal nervous condition. r..

The splendid service which the United States department of agricul- ture is doing for the farmers of the country might be considerably widen ed and increased if more of the latter would take advantage of the publica- tions which are issued by the depart ment and furnished to applicants for little or nothing. The first publication which the farmer should have in his hand is entitled Farmers Bulletin Subject Index" which contains a list of all bulletins published and is re- vised and brought down to date once or twice each year. These publica- tions cover great variety of subjects and are all given titles and numbers so that they can be- easily referred to. The most valuable single publication of the department is the year book of agriculture, which, in addition to giv- ing a concise review of the progress made along the great variety of lines in which the department is interested, contains a score or more valuable ar ticles on selected subjects written by competent and practical men. Besides the publications above mentioned, there Is the monthly list of publications, which will be mailed free to all per sons who apply. The farmers bulle- tins and year book may be had for nominal price by making application to the department of agriculture and
 zaay be had free in most instances by applying to ones, senator or repre- sentative at Washington. Uncle Sam would like to have his agricultural de- partment of the greatest possible use to his big family, and this will come about only through requests from them for the literature which he has been to l heavy expense to prepare.

According to a late ruling of the Oklahoma state board of health. no more bad eggs can be sold to consum- CTS after Sept. 1. Merchants have been notified that after that date they must buy on the 'loss off basis" !" which means, in other words, that the producer, the keeper of the hens, must suffer the loss incident in the market ing of bad eggs and not the consumer. as has been the case in the past. This ruling is equitable and fair, strikes at the real root of the bad egg business and ought to be adopted in other states. ----.-

That the rank and file of farmers merely play horse at the hen business is indicated in the reports of census enumerators showing the average number of eggs produced yearly by the farm hen to be approximately five dozen-sixty eggs-while selected pens of laying breeds under intelligent care have records which nearly quadruple the above average. The hen that pro- duces but five dozen eggs per year barely pays her board bill, and this assuming that her fare from May 1 to Oct. i costs nothing, which is far from the fact Shining along with this kind of showing, she belongs in the same company as the COW whose feed costs $35 per year and whose products are worth from $50 to $32. The cure lies in more careful supervision, in cluding selection of laying breeds, elimination of the loafers, more atten- ton to egg producing rations, the pro- viding of better nesting places and at all seasons of the year making the hens scratch and work for the food that is given them.

The directors of the animal hus- bandry department of the Pennsyl- vania Agricultural college have been conducting some valuable hog feeding tests, the rations used being wheat middlings and corn chop and tankage. While the pigs fed on middlings alone made better use of their feed at first than the lot given corn chop and tank age, in the latter part of the feeding period the reverse was true. The pigs fed middlings were not only not so active and healthy as the others, but they did not eat their rations with the same relish that those did which were fed the corn -tankage diet. Those fed middlings made a total gain in the feeding period of 337.5 pounds, while those fed tankage and corn made total gain of 448.5 pounds. The latter ration also had somewhat the advan- tage in the matter of cost per pound of gain, and the hogs fed this ration dressed out better percentage.

A heavy diet of corn is all right for laying fat on the ribs of a feeding steer, but it is badly used when thus fed to the dairy COW or laying hen.

QUARREL OVER LEASE
RESULTS In LAW SUIT.
Ice Company Trying to Retain
Possession of Present Offices.

Another chapter was begun today in
the story Of the troubles between the
Union Ice Company and Arthur Has
Jam and his sisters, Miss Jennie Has
lam and Mrs. Ella Van Houten, who
are the owners of the companys head
quarters at the Centre street Go k,
when a suit of dispossess proceedings
was begun before Judge Adams in the
Supreme Court. The trouble began
when the company's two-year lease en
the dock expired, March 81. The COM
pany claimed that they had the privi-
lege of renewal, but the owners went
ahead and leased the dock to the Yam.
tacaw Coal and Ice Company. On the
night of the expiration of lease both
the Yantacaw and Union firms were
we'll represented al the dock, the one
trying to obtain possession and the
other refusing to vacate the premises.
On April 4 the matter was brought
up in the Orange District Court, but
the Union Company, through their at
torneys, Coult & Smith, applied to the
Court of Chancery, asking that the
ease be referred to the Supreme Court
for trial.
It is maintained by the plaintlffs In
the action that the Union Ice Com
PAM should have notified them ninety
DAYS previous to the expiration of the
lease of their desire to renew 1t. The
firm of Colby, Sommer q Whiting are
the attorneys for the plaintiffs.

This card has occasioned a
GREAT DEAL OF COMMENT
and we have been asked re-
peatedly WHY we were using
the tube cars for advertising
purposes and IF WE WERE
AFRAID OUR TRADE WAS
GOING TO NEW YORK.
We will tell you WHY we
used the above card and why
we propose using OTHERS Oh
the same subject.
we are NOT afraid of our
OLD CUSTOMERS going to
New York, because we think
THEY KNOW THE VALUE
OF HOME SHOPPING, but we
believe there are many new
Corners In this vicinity who
have NEVER VISITED the
local stores, and consequently
do not know what splendid
mercantile establishments we
have in Newark or how much
BETTER one can do HERE
than in New York. 1t Is to
these people that we wish to
talk-ft is the NEW and not
the OLD trade that we are
endeavoring to reach through
the medium Of these tunnel
cards.
we believe this new advertising
campaign of ours Wi do us a great
deal OF good and we HOPE II.
WILL BENEFIT THE OTHER
NEWARK STORES AS WELL.
WE want Jersey people to trade IN
Newark-AT THIS STORE IF POS
SIBLE. but, II not here, at any of
the other GOOD SHOPS. We want
Jersey people to STAY AT HOME
we want them to patronize THE
INDUSTRIAL CITY, We want
Jersey people to trade at home, and.
mark what we say-WE ARE GOING
TO MAKE THIS SUCH A GOOD
STORE THAT IN THE FUTURE
PEOPLE WON'T WANT TO GO TO
