BEST TINE TO HAVE
THE cows FRESHEN
More Time for Caring for Animal
and Her Products in Winter
Than in Summer.

(By c. A. HUTTON, University of Ten
nessee)
There are several advantages in
having the COWS freshen in the fall OF
the year instead of in the spring
There is more time OF Inc farm for
caring for the COW anG her products
during the winter months
Cows will give better yield of milk
than if they freshen in the spring. II
they are properly cared for and fed
they will milk well when fresh; then
when the grass comes in the spring, il
helps to keep the milk flow, so that the
fall fresh cow will milk better through
out the year than the one that fresh
ems in the spring. The COWS will be
dry during the hot summer months
when pastures are short and flies are
bad. More attention can be given to
caring for the calves, and they will be
ready to turn on pasture in the spring
when grass comes.
There is more demand for milk and
butter during the winter months, and
the price is higher than in the summer.
If cows are bred so as to freshen in
the fall, they will give better cash re-
turns from the sale of their products.

Accidental inventions.

The ancients believed that there
was certain kind of mineral sub
stance in existence by means of which
all the common metals could be turned
into gold. This supposed substance
was called the philosophers stone, and
the alchemists of classic times and
during the middle ages spent much
time and labor in search of this won
derful substance.
Of course, since nothing of the kind
ever existed, it was never found; but
it is worth remembering that some OF
the most notable inventions were dis,
covered in this wide search. 1t was in
looking for the philosophers stone that
the German chemist, Botticher, STUN
bled upon the secret of making the
beautiful Dresden porcelain. Roger
Bacon, in the same way, discovered
tire composition of gunpowder; Geber
found the properties of acids; Van
Helmon discovered the nature of gas,
and Doctor Glauber found the secret
Of making the salts which now bear
his name.

SUPERIOR QUALITY
OF BERKSHIRE HOG
Animal in Good Condition Is At
traCtive in Appearance-Noted
for ProIificacy.

In general form d modern well-bred
Berkshire, in good condition, is SYM
metrical throughout, attractive in ap-
pearance and recognized at once as
an animal of more than ordinary
worth.
The improved Berkshire is further
characterized by the superior quality
and proportionate quantity of it's flesh,
which is tender and juicy, the hams
and shoulders being nicely marbled
with fat and lean meat, while the sides
are also noted for their excellence
in these respects, making them espe-
cially desirable for curing as bacon.
There is less loss in dressing we'll
fitted Berkshire than in dressing any
other kind of hog From the fattening
pen to the packing house he suffers
less loss than any other breed, and
after he has gone through the curing
process and has found the consumer
the percentage of waste is the smallest
of any breed.
Berkshire swine are also noted TO-
their docility and prolif1cacy, the sows
usually bringing large filters and
proving themselves gentle mothers.

Old Manx Hospitality.

The Isle of Man government, which
is concerned at the financial loss
caused by the requisition of passen-
ger steamers for military purposes,
used at one time to legislate against
visitors from the mainland. One of
the very earliest laws on the Manx
statute book enjoined "all Scots to
avoid the land with the next vessel
that goeth into Scotland, upon pain
of forfeiture of their goods and bod
les to prison" Another enacted that
Irish women loytering and not work
ing be commanded forth of this isle
with as much speed as may be- The
aforementioned law was the result Of a
series of raids on the Manx coast by
q Galloway rover called MacCulloch.

RAISE PEANUTS In
NORTHERN SECTIONS
Spanish Variety Grows in a
Bunch and Can Be Planted
CIoseIy-Matures Early.
By HUGH G. GRINSTEAD.)


A few years ago it was thought that
peanuts. or "goobers" as they are
called in the South, could be raised
only in the southern states, but now it
is known that they do fairly we'll as
far north as Iowa, while they grow
almost as we'll in Missouri as in the
more southern states.
The best variety to plant so far
north is the Spanish, which grows
in bunch, can be planted closer, and
natures earlier and more even than
the old Virginia varieties. The soil
best suited to the growth of peanuts
is sandy or warm and we'll drained.
They should not be planted till the
ground is warm, about the same time
you would plant melons. Prepare the
ground we'll, and drop the seed two in
a hill IA inches apart for the bunch
kind, and about 20 inches apart for
the vine kinds usually grown in the
South
They should be kept clean. 1t is
not necessary to cover the vine with
dirt in order to get it to form nuts, as
was once DONE for the vines will
throw out runners on which the nuts
form by little roots running into the
ground.
l never saw peanut plant quit
bearing. Like the cotton plant, they
have fruit of all stages of growth
when the crop is harvested, and, of
course, the longer the season the
larger the crop.
AS soon as there is danger of frost
the vines should be pulled up. A
fork should be run under the hill,
loosening the ground so all the nuts
may be pulled up with the vine. The
vines may be allowed to remain in the
field if the weather is good, or they
may be taken to the barn and the nuts
picked off at any time.
If the vines are not allowed TO get
wet they make excellent hay. There
will be many culls or imperfect nuts
that are worth nothing and should
be left on the vines for the stock.
A pound of nuts from any good
scotsman will plant enough for home
use. They are healthful food and
contain much nourishment.

and cracked corn, wheat screenings,
etc., if such feeds are placed within
their reach.
The best way to feed grain to lambs
is to make a creep for them. This is
a pen in the pasture with an opening
on each side through which the lambs
can creep but small enough to keep
the ewes out.
If such a pen is made of Stats set
upright, the Stats may be far enough
apart to allow the lambs to creep
through anywhere at pleasure.
This pen or creep should be COW
cred SO as to protect the grain from
rains and should have a trough in it
in which the grain should be kept all
the time
The lambs will grow and thrive
wonderfully and when weaving time
comes they may be taken away from
the ewes without any setback at all.
Lambs mature quickly and make a
better size if they are taught to eat
grain as quickly as possible.
While it is advisable to see the
sheep often while they are on pas
ture, still it is not necessary to stay
with them all the time and good re-
suits may be obtained with plenty of
good water, salt and feed and week
ly visit, if the dogs do not trouble
them.
If, however, sheep-killing dogs are
around, be on your guard with good
shotgun.

as he reached for and handed over the
weapon.
Burglars" Whispered the son in
awe-struck tones. They've got in at
the back door and are trying to open
the door into the kitchen"
Dad" followed his son softly down
the stairs without stopping for further
arguments or garments. Son walked
cannily ahead with leveled revolver
and pale face. They reached the
kitchen and, listening, could hear
strange sounds in the back hall. Lights
were flashed and then with caution
and ready for the shock of discovery
they opened the door.
There on the floor with their legs
twisted about each other lay two OF
the Holsters, scrapping and fighting.
They had evidently started the argu-
ment on the refrigerator and wriggled
off on to the floor, where they kept 1t

Vienna Government Reported Anx-

Ancona Case.

BERLIN. via London, December 81
From highly competent Austrian
source in Vienna private advices have
been received by the Associated Press
taking an optimistic view of the Aus
tro-American situation.
The Austrian government, it is de-
clared. appears to be actuated by a
sincere desire to preserve friendly re-
lations with the United States, even at
a considerable sacrifice, and is en-
deavoring to formulate a reply to the
second American note on the Ancona
which the United States may deem sat
isfactory.
The informant expressed the belief
that a settlement will be reached and
rupture thus avoided. He could fur
nish no definite inforamtion in advance
of the details of the Austrian answer,
but his optimism was borne out by the
tone of the intimations of the Austrian
foreign Office to the Associated Press
correspondent at Vienna recently, which
contrasts strikingly with the attitude
of Vienna before the dispatch of the
first note.
