VAL ABLE HINTS FOR THE
FARMER.

Treat the herd boar with kind
ness and also with considerable
caution
Do not allow the COWS to dry UP
during the latter part Of summer
as this necessitates keeping them
through winter giving a smaller
flow Of milk than they should
A little oil of pennyroval or oil
Of cloves will drive flies away from
the stable.
At any season, when the horse
has become excessively warm he
should be cooled off gradually.
Don't change the collar from one
horse to another.
Cultivate a cheerful tone III
speaking to your horse
1t does not pay to feed and care
for inferior horses on the farm.
Warm skim milk for feeding
purposes soon pays the cost Of 4
farm separator.
A cows value is determined by
the solids in her milk.

ATTRACTIVE CATTLE.

Not very many pure bred herds
of Dutch belted cattle are found
anywhere in America, and their
appearance at the cattle shows al
ways attracts attention because Of
the unusual color markings. Each
animal possesses the broad white
belt about the body presenting the
appearance Of blanket. The
breed was brought to this country
about eighty years ago, ant for
many wears was SO rare that herds
were exhibited as a circus attrac-
ton. All importations were made
many wears ago, no new herds hay
ing been imported during the last
half century.
The Dutch belted cattle have the
general qualities OF the Holsteins
and are inclined to large milk
Weld. As the herds actually exist.
they are probably mot equal to
several other breeds in average
milk WELD. but the comparison is

WHY BAD EGGS?

During the warm weather there
are many bad eggs placed on the
market. These bad eggs may be
dirty, incubated, shrunken or held,
rotten or lnoldy and bad favored. |
Some Of the causes Of dirty eggs
are unsanltary conditions about the
poultry house; lack Of litter in the
house; an insufficient number Of
nests; small nests poor nesting
material allowing hens to roost on
nests; and not gathering eggs often
enough, The few dirty eggs that
are produced should be consumed
at home and not washed and sold.
With these faults corrected the
number of broken eggs would be
lowered, for some of the above
conditions result in both dirty and
broken eggs. The cause of some
Of the breakage, however, is the
lack Of mineral matter for the egg
shell. Oyster shells or bone will
furnish this mineral matter for the
production of thicker shelled eggs.
The producers should take suf-
|
ficient pride in their product to give
it proper care from the time it is
laid until it is marketed. Subse,
quent handlers should exercise a
similar precaution. Careful at
tention to these important points
would materially lessen the losses
enumerated above, and would add
to the pleasure of producing and
Of consuming this important food
Eggs may be delicacy or only ar
ordinary, or even inferior, material
for food purposes, depending very
largely upon the way they are
handled by producer, middlemar
and consumer.

SOME INTENSIFIED FARM
ING.
Correspondent Writes of Mr.. Seit-
ter's Farm Near Winter Park
What He is Doing on Fifteen
Acres-YieldS.
Wilmington Starr

NuSl lids OSCll Sdlu dIiu FOllllllGS
Much has been said and volumes
have been written on the subjects
of diversified farming" but the
most imaginative writer's and
speakers on this great subject have
not begun to comprehend what di-
versihed farming means in a sec
ton that is favored like ours.
On little I5-acre farm not two
miles from Wilmington, is proba-
bly, the most wonderful diversifi-
cation of crops, and embracing
more forms Of agriculture, than on
any equal sized acreage in the Unit
ed States. | refer to the farm Of
Mr.. G. Setter, on the Sound
road, just beyond the driving park.
On his little farm of less than Is
acres Of cultivated lands, Mr.. Selt-
ter combines a combination of
crops and stock that would make
the average farmers head swim.
His methods Of planting resemble
more the tricks Of the sleight-of-
hand performer than they do farm
ing, and his farm would easily be
classified by the Agricultural De
partment as a general farm, stock
farm, poultry farm market, garden
and truck farm all on less than l $
acres.
Mr.. Setter was loath to leave his
work Wednesday, but | had hearc
considerable about what he was do
ing and finally persuaded him t(
show me his place and what he !:
doing,
It has been estimated that undel
Southern conditions 80 acres an(
under Northern conditions, &
acres, is the minimum amount o
land from which man can supper
a family without relying on the US
Of glass and artificial heat. Let m
tell you what | found Mr.. Settle
doing. Without the aid Of glass Q
artificial heat, he is supporting nv
grown people, and three children
including the hands working b
the year, feeding two mules, on
COW, 2oO-head of chickens and tat
tening Is pigs on crops raised O
less than IS acres Of ground. BE
sides this he helps in the support Q
score or more families by fur
nishing work for them in busy sea
sons, and he is getting rich fast int
the bargain.
His farm and his work are
wonderful monument to our cllmat
and the possibilities Of Our land

could be duplicated. Farthe

place in the country for the small
acreage farmer.

when he hasn't crop to house or
market from his little farm. The
combinations and rotations Of
crops and vegetables that Mr.. Seit-
ter IS proving are practical here are
almost endless. In order to give
an idea Of the wonderful efficiency
he gets from his land, | am going
to mention some of the things he is
doing right now.
In one of his beds 81 lettuce, set
out in February, he sowed radish
seed. These were shipped weeks
ago and cucumbers then planted be-
tween the rows Of lettuce. The CT
cumbers are starting to make vines
now and next week the lettuce will
be gone. After the cucumbers
come corn, sowed to field peas and
in September there will be a crop
of Irish potatoes on the land, to be
followed by Spring lettuce again.
Seven crops in year from the
same land
In another instance, radisiles
were again sown with the lettuce
and later turnips were drilled be
tween the rows. These we're thin
ned for early Spring greens and
in every third row peppe:. plants
were set out The turi,ips and let
tuce are beir'g shipped now AMI as
soon as the peppers shade the
ground, celery goes in between the
rows of pepper. So it goes with
everything on the place. There is
always crop planted before the
preceding one is harvested anc
there are often times four differ.
ent crops growing on the same
piece Of land at once.
, After having taken me all over
his place, Mr.. Setter stopped alb
ruptly and said: Il am farming
too much land, | have got to Gu
down my acreage, it is more than
, can tend to-" | should like to hav,
had our farmer friends from othe
t climes and some from right arount
. home, hear this man, who is car
, rying on nearly every form OF ag
r riculture successfully on less thar
r Is acres make that statement. 1t /
2 almost beyond belief that what MI
Setter is doing can be done on
acres and to have him say that
. can be done on even less land, put
our section in class all by itself
4 On the strength of what this ex
: ample shows us, we can conhdentl
f state to the world that the combina
: ton of soils, climate and market

Now After Coal.

After having spent its time on many
things of much less Importance, the
federal government is at last going to
find where that difference between the
cost of coal at the mine mouth and in
the coal been really goes to.
A big investigation is to be started
by the department of commerce and
labor to learn something of the power
full trust which has for so long done it's
share to make the cost of living high,
and of the reasons why coal is steadily
held at high prices while every agency
of production tends toward lower prices
except labOr-and with that the adj
vance is but a tiny fraction of the price
of increase.
1t is high time something was done
in this regard. Even if the govern
ment finds itself powerless to aid the
consumer directly-as has frequently
been the case-the publicity which is
bound to follow such an examination,
especially if it is found that much of
the advance is due to greed and power
only, will have wholesome effect

The Mail Order CatalOgs.

In millions of homes the fall mail or
der catalogs from distant metropolitan
establishments will shortly be received.
They have smart little cuts by clever
craftsmen, concise descriptions by
trained advertising writer's. They are
model of good form in publicity,
which every home merchant might we'll
emulate.
Patronizing a house hundreds or thou
sands Of miles away, however, in pref
erence to the tried and trusted home
merchant, is dubious proposition.
Nothing is more deceptive than a
catalog cut If the object is repre-
sented by drawing, the picture has
little value to the discriminating buyer.
Even a photograph gives little idea of
textures and qualities.
Buying from picture in a catalog
cut is essentially the same as when the
boys used to swap jack knives ''unsight
and unseen," without any chance to
learn what kind of knife the other
held in his closed hand. 1t seems about
as hopeful to the wise buyer at patron
izing the grab bag at public fair.
The only way to tell whether you are
getting good worth for your money is
to see the goods, handle them, and put
the salesman or proprietor through
questioning to see if the value is really
there. A purchase from catalog cut
of a house at a distance gives oppor-
tunity to do neither of these things.
In buying from distant mail order
house, you have express or freight
charges to pay from the establishment
to your home, you take chances on long
delays that may rob your purchase of
part of its value. If the goods are not
what you expected, it may cost you
more than the article is worth to get
satisfaction, if indeed you ever get it.
Ask your home merchant for the ar
ticle you saw in the catalog cut. If
it's any good, he will get it for you for
the same money, minus any express
bill. And if it is no good, he will tell
you so and save you disappointment

Buying continues at merry pace.
In the past week the American Cigar
Co. has invaded the Broadleaf field.
Prices for Havana Seed are maintained.
Hail riddled the cream of the Housa-
tonic valley tobacco crop Monday after
noon. The damage, which at this writ
ing seems likely to exceed $75, 900, is
placed by some tobacco men as high as
$1,000
About Is per cent of the Housatonic
valley crop had been harvested before
the hail storm. Practically the entire
crop had been sold in the field.
Eighteen acres of shaded tobacco,
practically cured and ready to take
down, were ruined by the burning of
the main barn on the William S. Pinney
farm Thursday afternoon. By hard
work other barns, house and Is acre
tent in proximity to the barn were
saved. Mr.. Pinney estimates the loss
roughly at $40, 900, the loss on the barn
being placed at $1,000 and on the crop
at $4,000.
Government experiments are being
conducted on Mr.. Pinney's farm by
Ernest G. Beinhart of the Bureau of
Plant Industry, Department of Agri-
culture, and government apparatus of
considerable value was destroyed. The
ruined tobacco comprised the cream of
one of the finest shaded crops in the
valley.

SIXTEEN persons lost their lives as
the result of fires and explosions re-
sulting directly from the carlessness or
improper handling of petroleum pro-
ducts, chiefly kerosene and gasoline, in
Wisconsin during the year ending June
80. 1912, according to the report of
Louis F. Meyer, state supervisor of in
spectors of Illuminating oils. At the
same time " persons were injured
from the same causes and property loss
resulted amounting to SGT, 297.50. "Of
this number, IL were killed as the re-
suit of gross carelessness, says Mr..
Meyer. ''The other four lives were
lost through parents allowing children
to handle kerosene or gasoline" Mr..
Meyer says that the most common
cause of accidents of this type is found
to be the exceedingly dangerous but
general habit of trying to revive or re-
kindle fires by means of kerosene or
gasoline.

Pennsylvania.
LANCASTER, PA, Aug. 26, 1912.


Another severe hail storm visited
Lancaster county early last week, but
it was very much less destructive than
the storm of few weeks ago. That
storm destroyed at least 1900 acres of
tobacco, while that of last week only
struck few hundred acres.
Ihe tobacco, as crop, looks fine and
healthy in spite of its irregularity and
it's growth the past week has been so
pronounced as to occasion surprise. Adj
vanced as the season is, considerable
tobacco remains to be topped and that
too at time when quite lot of tobac-
co, that planted earliest, has been cut.
By the end of the first week in Sep
TENDER, if favorable weather holds. a
lot of tobacco will have been cut. No
buying has yet been done, and the local
packers say there will be no buying
until the crop is stripped, either. Time
was when packers broke their necks in
their anxiety to get their share of the
crop, but they are laying low now.
Our warehouses are full of goods the
packers cannot find market for, 1909,
1910 and 1911 tobacco, and they ask
what the growers think they want with
any more goods. This year the grow
ers are going to get no gilt-edge prices
and the sooner they let this fact SIM
mer down into their thinking pans the
better for their interests in the end.
Last year ten cents was the outside
limit set by the packers before the sea
son opened, but conditions were not the
same as now and they were unwise
enough to depart from their original
intention and pay more. Some even
blew in twelve cents a pound. Now
they wish they hadn't They will not
be so reckless this year.
