REVELATION WAS TOO MUCH

A wellknown illustrator. who makes
interesting western pictures, once
made the acquaintance of a noisy but
good-natured cowboy who rejoiced In
the appellation of "Hollering Jones'"
In physical appearance this man was
typical Of his kind, and the artist made
several studies OF him, both In re-
pose and In his favorite diversion Of
"hollering. Some Of the studies were
sold by the artist to an eastern maya
zine. They showed Jones In his most
violent state.
A year later the artist again visited
the region He was soon approached
by Mr., Jones himself. bearing one OF
the pictures, which he had torn from
the magazine in which its was printed

ment of Agriculture.)
Every farmer. however small his
possessions may be, who lives within
the apple growing districts of the
United States, should have an apple
orchard. the product Of which should
be found on his table In some form
every day In the year." recommends
the United States department of agri-
culture. Perhaps two-thirds of the
settled portion of the country is more
or less adapted to the production Of
apples The apple Is pre-eminently
useful in the household economy and
as culinary fruit, none excels II. IT
graces the table in a greater variety
of forms than any other and as a des-
sert fruit, few are its equal and none
its superiors. Its juice, when ex-
tracted, makes an excellent, whole
some beverage and for vinegar 1t has
no rival. AS market fruit, it is one
of the easiest and least expensive to
handle and usually finds ready sale

Among the many ways in which the
apple is used. the manufacture Of
jellies and preserves is one of grow
ing Importance. The numerous fac
tories for the manufacture of these
goods have not only created demand
for second and third grade apples,
but also for by-products resulting from
drying and evaporating the fruit.
Apple butter of the real, rich, old
time farm variety fills an important
place in the household economy and
prices. Good sweet cider made from
sound. apples, not from halfdecayed,
wormy fruit, is one Of the most health
full products of the orchard It can
be kept sweet and unfermented by
heating 1t to a temperature of 1909 F.
then sealing 1t up tight in bottles or
casks and storing in cool place.
Boiled cider made in the good old
fashioned way by reducing to one-fifth
by boiling, and then canned, makes an
excellent article for culinary purposes.

A gentle eastern or northeastern
slope, as a rule, is the most desirable
for an orchard site, but this may vary
In different apple sections.

TIME TO CUT SWEET CLOVER
Much Depends on Whether Crop 10 in
First or Second Year--Avoid
Coarse and WoolIy Stems.

The time to cut sweet clover for
hay will depend largely upon whether
the crop is In its first or second year
of growth Generally speaking, only
one crop can be obtained the first
year, and this should not be cut until
the crown sprouts begin to show.
This cutting may be close, as the plant
will have sufficient time to obtain a
certain amount of growth ere the cold
weather arrives and thus be able to
Withstand the winter.
During the second year Of growth
two or three crops Of hay may be
obtained II the proper precautions are
exercised. The first cutting should be
made just previous to the time that
the plant begins to bloom and should
be done SO as to leave few branches
and leaves on each plant. II cut close
at this time the majority Of the cut
plants will be killed The second cut
ting should be done in exactly the
same manner as the first, while the
third and last cutting may be made
close to the ground.
1t is somewhat difficult to say Just
when the second and third cuttings
should be made, owing to the varia-
ton in the plant growth, but as a
rule the crop should be cut sufficiently
early in order to avoid coarse and
woody stems.

Hog Cholera.

Hog cholera is disease which seems
to be stopped to a degree by the frosts
of winter, although frost cannot be
said to stop case after 1t has taken
hold Of its victim. However. 1t seems
to prevent the rapid spread Of the dis
ease. The result is that in spring
time the affection is. as rule, at the
lowest ebb, but increases rapidly from
that time until fall.
