Blatters That the Farmer Should Be Interested In A "Wheat Problem Mixed Farming; Planting; Anlnmn Bulba Hog-Growera and Pork-Eitrri-Lambi for Early- Market The Milking Stool Hint for the House Some Valuable Ileelpes. We commend to our readers the following words of caution by Alva Agee In the Country Gentleman: lf thou be surety for thy friend,. If 'thou hast stricken thy hand with a stranger, thon art snared with the words of thy mouth. Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids. Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand Of the fowler." This counsel of Solomon Is unheeded by the majority of men. ItS 'wisdom . has come home forcibly and ' Badly to some of my neighbors lately, and their experience is only that of thousands of farmers. A. local business man assigned With ?40,000 liabilities and only a few thousand dolllars assets. He was an extensive patron of money-lenders, and obliging neighbors indorsed his paper. Banks lent for the sake of profit, but only hard-worklns farmers staked their property upon the ability of the borrower to repay the money. Now they are snared by the words of their mouths. "It would seem that some exchange of suretyship Is almost necessity, but there is a rule that is much more equitable and safe for the farmer than the one that prevails today. The farmer's gains or losses in business are naturally slow, while middlemen and speculators risk mere and the gains and losses are correspondingly large. A farmer may give security for another farmer with less risk than for the man engaged in a less certain line of business, but he ehould not be expected to jeopardize his accumulations in order to furnish money for those Who risk more and hope to make money faster. "When one man lends money to another and makes a charge for its use. it does not seem quite risht that he should require that a third man, who reaps no benefit from the loan, must step in and agree to repay to the lender the full amount of the loan If the borrower fails to do so. However, this is the method that prevails in the business world, and there is no escape. But the farmer who makes his money in slow ways has a perfect moral right to refuse to become surety for any man engaged in any other business, without fear of giving offense. If offense Is taken, the friendship of such a one costs more than It is worth. The man who takes risks should look for assistance to those who do likewise. To such, the loss of thousands is not so serious as to a farmer who can scarcely expect to rise again If once his capital is taken from him. "Giving bond for the faithful discharge pf duty is a necessity. When those who handle public funds or have the property of others in their charge ask one to become surety, the difficulty Is greater. Usually it appears to be only a matter of common honesty, and no one wants to seem to question his friend's uprightness. But here again the farmer, merely because his name is backed by real estate, Fhould(not be called 'upon to Jeopardize his property, unless it be in the case of friends, who cannot well evade the responsibility thrust upon them. Within two years I have been especially interested in two cas"s where the men giving bond were .rictly honest. It seemed that the sureties were only asked to go through a formality for near neighbors. And yet these two men nearly brought loss to the men signing their bonds. In one case a trusted relative Of the man got hold of the money, using It in his business, and escape from loss was due to the fact that the relative dl l not become bankrupt until the money had been gotten from him. In the other case a valuable farm, owned by the man trivlnsr bond, could be sold to meet a big deficit caused by supposed robbery, and the seconr-escape was made. "I know well a man who started life worth nothing, and a few months ago he- owned two valuable farms. He spent fifty years in hard work, practicing economy and managing well. He beeanfre Surety for a man in business, and today his farm fences are plastered with attachments and he is not worth a. penny. The principle la wrong which leads to such results. The friendship that requires one to Jeopardize the home that helters his family in order that another may have plenty of capital to risk in business Is a curse. Security debts have been paid and will continue to be paid, put much troub!e and loss might be kept out of our lives by remembering that bnly he that hateth suretyship Is eure.' " A Wheat Problem. "Had I better sell my wheat at 53 cents or hold it for a higher price?" was a question recently propounded to Dr. W. I. Chamberlain, and he answers as follows: "The writer has his crop of wheat in the granary and Intends to keep it there until developments advance the price pr d.nonstrate that advance is not to te expected. From all the information he can gather he believes that the world's crop this year falls short of what the world will demand. The most careful calculations make the supply. Including the? large surplus carried ov(r, about 100,000,000 bushels short. Against this we have financial stringency, business depression and an abnormally large supply of wheat In sight. These thnje things forced the price down to the lowest point ever recorded tn the commercial history of the country, and this low price is rapidly removing the Incubus of a large available upply. Europe Is buying wheat at a preat rate now. The exports last week were 1,100,000 bushels larger than the week before and 2.370,000 bushels larger than the corresponding week last year, while the receipts were very much smaller. It is estimated that the visible upply last week was decreased 750,000 bushels against an increase of 3,522,000 bushels the corresponding week . last year. "These facts tell their own story and are having their legitimate effect. Wheat Is firmer, stronger and more active than a week ago at every point. If an advance can thus be made in the face of the greatest business depression and financial stringency known- since th war, what will result when, money becomes easier and business revives, and the available supply Is reduced to normal proportions? "Whether busings revives soon or not the financial stuatlon must improve before long. Monty can not lie idle a great while. It will soon be seeking safe investment and the low prlo of wh'mt Is already attractng It. With plenty of money at easy rat'4s the trice of wheat will advance even If business does not revive." Planttnir Anlnmn Rnlha. ' The following practical suggestions are given in substance, through different portion of a catalojrue of bulbs for fall planting: Hyacinths, by careful management, may be had in bloom nearly all winter, and up to the end of May. For P'ts the hfst soil is a mixture of fibrous lam and manure In equal parts, with nme sand. They shotild be well rooted bffre subjecting to heat within doors; they m.iy be kept in a cool cellar and brourht into heat as the flowers are wanted. They may also lx grown jft rain-water, inserting the bulbs in
moss, so that their base is Just in contact with the water, in which a few pieces of charcoal should be placed, to prevent offensive odor. Keep in a dark place until roots are emitted, when they may be brought Into light. For outdoor flowering they should be planted in October. Plant nine inches apart and three Inches deep. For tulips, the small grower may secure numerous varieties which bloom at different times, covering quite two months, without going beyond the cheaper sorts. The bed need not be wholly occupied with tulips; clumps of narcissus make pleasing additions, and in front may be Brown such early-flowering bulbs as snowdrop, crocus, scllla. dwarf iris, etc. For lilies,, drainage is important; the 'soil should be deeply loosened and enriched with leafmold, and the bulbs planted four or five inches deep and left undisturbed for several years, as frequent removals are Injurious. Some species from California require to be planted ten or twelve Inches deep.
Mixed Firming. "Take a ride with me," says the noted farmer. T: B. Terry, "and I will show you corn fields that have scarcely been cultivated at all. and where the drills are solid rows of grass and weeds. I Will Show you potatoes cared for, or rather not cared for, in about the same way. Yes. 1 will show you fields where they are so stripped by bugs and overgrown with weeds, and the cultivation between the drills s neglected, that you Can scarcely see a potatoe leaf. And this shall not be on some shiftless farmer's place, an exceptional case, but on farms managed by good farmers, in some cases our best farmers. They are not lazy or shiftless. They undertake to do too .much, that is all. and something must suffer. I could not take their places and do any better, perhaps not as well. The trouble Is not In the men, but the system they are following. We have had a dry season, which of course is favorable for taking care of crops and doing the hayinsr and harvesting, and still, while thev have been securing hay and grain, corn and potatoes have suffered severely. In some cases they will not pay for the labor rut on them and the use of the land. . They will be grown at a loss. Years ac:o I did Just this way myself, but seeing it was not businesslike I gradually worked out of it and undertook to do less and less until there was little enough to do, so we could usually do about our best and make everything we did pay. The above named farmers are making a little money, doing pretty well, but they might do better. As little as we undertake to do we sometimes get caught. The other day our wheat rvas all cut and dry enough to get in; there were six acres of potatoes that should have been cultivated at once; the rest were too large. But it might come on catchinjr weather and the wheat would then be damaged, so It must co in the barn. This took three days. .nd then my son did not feel well, and there were other Jobs that must be done, and those potatoes were neglected for some time. It did not rain, but was hot and drv. If we had attended to the potatoes we should have been quite a few dollars ahead, but we were afraid to rlk leavintr the wheat out. But there Is verv little loss of this kind on our farm, not that we are any smarter than others, but simply that we do not undertake to do any more things tharr we are quite sure we can handle." IIog-Grovrers and Pork-Enters. The price of hogs depends In the main on the ratio between production and consumption or between the hog-growers and pork-eaters. Financial stringency, crop failures and speculation may modify this rule for a time, but in the long run the supply produced by the hog-growers and the demand created by the porkeaters, fixes the price. The future price of hogs, says the Homestead, depends to a great extent upon the future ratio between the two classes. The number of. hog-growers depends largely upon the number of corn-growers, and In the Increase of the by-products of the dairy, the distillery or other establishments which consume grain for other purposes. It is a somewhat notable fact that the number of corn-growers, or to state it more accurately, the acres of corn grown, are gradually decreasing, and that, too, by, the operation of a fixed law. With the exception of the states of Kansas and Nebraska, there has been no increase worth mentioning in the acreage of corn for some years. On the other hand, there has been a steady decrease in such states, as Illinois and Iowa, among the greatest corn-growing states In the union or in the world. The diversification of agxicilture, which always accompanies Improvement In agricultural methods, necessarily leads to a decrease in the acreage of such crops as corn, which is not fully compensated by the increase in the yield per acre. We have frequently furnished the statistics of these (two states as showing the workings of 'this law. Kansas and Nebraska will, in a short time, come under the operations of the same law, and Inasmuch as the western limit of the corn fields has been reached by immigration, and the northern limit determined by temperature, It may be safely stated that the acreage of corn In the United States has already reached, if not passed. Its limit. While there will, with Improved methods of culture, be an Increase In the yield per acre, yet we doubt if for many years this will equal the decrease in the number of acres. It follows, therefore, that the number of hog-growers must, to a certain extent, be determined by the number of corn-growers. Lambs for Early Market. Mr. J. F. Keller says: "After testing several breeds myself and carefully noting the results of other growers'- experience with the various mutton breeds, I conclude for the purpose in hand none surpass and few equal the Southdown. True, as producers of wool they rate very low; however, this quality is of little consequence as compared with a combination of other valuable features found In this breed. These may be briefly mentioned as follows: Hardy .constitution and freeness from disease; will admit of being kept in larger flocks than any other mutton breed symmetrical form and round, blocky carcass, well supported with stout yet fine-boned limbs, early maturity with a tendency to take on fat readily at any age, with a carcass that assumes a wellmatured and blocky . form when quite young; mutton of the flnst texture and flavor, with a very small proportion of offal. My high-grade and thoroughbred Fouthdown lambs were said to be the best marketed in this county this season. They were not remarkable for size, but for quality. At an average age of sixty days they weighed (averaged) fortyeight pounds and netted 9 cents per pound on the farm.

While experienced growers may do well with most any of the mutton breeds. I would recommend the Southdown to the beginner as the easiest to handle and best for this special purpose. "In concluding this branch of the subject. I would impress on the mind of the would-be grower that the selection of the breeding stock is by no means all. Still, proper attention to this subject is organizing the business on a solid basis, and Is an important factor of success." Flavor of Eggs. The flavor of eggs depends very much on the kind of food given to the poultry. When hens are fed largely or almost exclusively on milk the yolk Is lighter in color, the white has a milky look and the whole epg is watery and less firm In texture than those laid by grain-fed hens. The taste of the egg is also affected, being insipid and unsatisfactory when boiled or poached, and less fine for ordinary cooking purposes even. There is no use is saying that the idea of the quality of ergs being influenced by the food of the hen is a mere whim, since it is a well-known fact that eggs of fowls in the neighborhood of the sea and fed almost entirely on fish taken as they come, embracing the strong and oily as well as the more delicate sorts, have "an ancient and fish-like" taste, if not "smell." and eggs coming from those reeions sell for less in the market in some instances than those coming from districts farther inland. The reason why hens fed on "slops" of milk. etc.. are able to give no better eggs to their owners is because the "old, old story" is repeated in their case. You demand the "tale of bricks" of your servants, but you give them no straw to make them with. Curd hardly comes under the head of milk, and there is little dancer of having it In large quantities to offer to your fowls. It contains all the best and most nutritions portions of the milk, without its objectionable, watery qualities. But the true feed for laying fowls is one-third or oneouarter Indian corn, ground or otherwise, and oats or wheat, together with milk and whatever scraps from the house are objectionable, and as much preen vegetable food as they will eat, sjid with these, combined and fed properly, your eggs will be of the true gold and silver stamp when the cook's fire has refined them, and prepared them as a relish for your breakfast table. Poultry World. The Mllklnft Stool. So long as the pasture is good cows care little for gren corn. The pasture will last the longer the fewer cows there are In it; therefore, the cows that are in it should be good ones. Then the dairyman will be In it. It takes some of us a long time to find out that it does not pay to feed poor cows. Some never will learn that it is cheaper to pay $5 for the service of a pure-bred bull than to have the service of a scrub free. It costs no more to raise a grade or pure-bred calf than a scrub, yet the one will make a cow that will begin to pay at two years of aj?e while the other maycost more than she comes to every year of her life. Because an occasional scrub cow proves to be a good milker is no reason why we should breed scrubs. When we breed pure-Lred we draw comparatively few blanks; when we breed scrubs we draw comparatively few prizes. In the second generation still fewer, and by the third or fourth scarcely any. When a pure-bred bull costs so little it seems a pity to use a scrub which costs so much in future losses. If the present corn crop should prove to be a poor one it may pay those who have money to Invest some of it in linseed meal and put it in a bin to use next winter. Happy the dairyman who can grow all of his cow feed; next to him comes the one who buys when the market is at its lowest. The dairyman who deals direct with the consumer saves one profit. If not two. From the producer to the consumer should be a road with no toll gates. Good goods and fair prices will make friends of the consumers. Hints for the Ilonne. Whisky will take out every kind of fruit' stain. A child's dress will look entirely ruined by the dark berry stains on It, but If whisky Is poured on the discolored places before sending It into the wash it will come out as good as new. Faded hangings may be restored by beating the dust from them and brushing, then apply a strong lather of castile soap by means of a hard brush; wash the lather off with clean water and afterward with alum water. When dry the colors will generally be found to be restored. A nice way to keep wax for the work basket is to tAl half shells of English walnuts with melted wax, fastening the two half shells closely together at one end. There will then be a small space at the other end, through which the thread will slip when the wax is being used. To wash a muslin dress: Make a good lather and wash the muslin in cold water, never putting It into warm water, even to rinse It. If the muslin Is green, ndd a wineglass of vinegar to the water In which It Is rinsed; If lilac, the same quantity of ammonia. For black and white muslin, use a small quantity of sugar of lead. Fresh , iron rust and fresh mildew stains are best removed by soaking the article which they are on in sour milk, and after it tum lain for a day and a night in the milk rub the spots vigorously with the hand In the milk. Where mildew or iron rust Is on a white fabric it may be completely bleached out by the use of salt and lemon Juice, laying the article In a strong sun. neclpea. Coffee Custards Klther tolled or baked custards are successfully made and delightfully flavored by using equal proportions of coffee and rhh milk, with eggs and sugar as usual. Fried Tomatoes Take cold stewed to. matoes well seasoned, acid to them sufficient line bread crumbs to enable vou to form into rnkes, fry in butter to a llrht brown. Fresh tomatoes, sliced and rolled In fine crumbs (first salting them), fried in the Name manner, are verv nice. To Can Peaehe Select freestones; put them into a wire kelile and dip the kettle into txlln water for one minute; then take on', and peel with a silver knlfo, cut In halves, maki a syrur wth nie quart of water and one pint of sugar cooked together; drop In peacht uvugh when th ayruD la beat
ing hot. for one can; when tender lift out with a wire.ypoon into a heated glass Jar; when full pour enough syrup jUuiu tin? kelile to rill thtTJar, then screw the cover on; then cook enough for another can the same way. In using peaches for canning it is better to use only one variety in a can. The light-colored peaches, although not as rich looking are very nice when canned and excellent for durr.v lings. Scalloped Tomatoes Tomatoes are scalloped like oysters. Put a layer of bread crumbs in a buttered baking dish, and over this a layer of sliced tomatoes seasoned with salt, pepper, butter and a very little sugar. Have the top layer of bread crumbs ard scatter over It bits of butter and thsn bake. A little of the erravy left from roast meats would add to the flavor, and might be poured over Just before it is put in the oven. Coffee Cream Soak half a box of relatlne in milk er. Dugh to cover it for an hour. Pour one cupful of strong hot coffee and sweeten with two-thirds of a cupful of sugar. Place it over boiling water and stir until dissolved, strain and mix with a pint cf cream. Beat occasionally until cool and then pour in mould as desired and set on ice. If possible, to stiffen. The whites of the eggs may make a delicate cake, very nice to offer with the coffee cream. Peach Charlotte Ore pint of sweet cream. el?ht fine poach??, one-third of a box of Nelson's jrelatine. one and onefourth cups of sugar, whites of four ejTKs and a teaspoonful of vanilla or lemon flavoring as ' preferred. Mince the peaches very fine and sweeten well. Soak the gelatine fifteen minutes In cold water, then add sufficient boiling water to dissolve it. Beat the whites stiff and the cream till thick and light. Add to the whipped cream the remainder of the sugar, the beaten whites, the strained gelatine, flavoring, and last the minced peaches. If not sweet enough add a trifle more sugar. The-amount required depends upon the acidity of the fruit. Beat for a moment, pour Into a preserve dish and set upon ice for several hours. Frozen Peach Pudding Rub enough peaches through a sieve to obtain a pint of pulp; put the pulp into a vessel with tt.n ounces of white sugrar and a few drops of (rissence of almond or vanilla. Dissolve an ounce and a half of gelatine in a little cold water. Add the pulp and cool it partially. Then mix the whole with a pint of whipped cream. Now beat the white of three eggs to a stiff froth, adding two ounces of sugar. Drop the eggs by large spoonfuls Into boiling milk; cook it a few minutes and drain in a seive Into small squares. Imbed a Jelly mould in ice, and put a layer of cream an inch thick on the bottom. Allow this to conereal; then add a layer of egg and the cut peaches. Cover this with cream and freeze a?ain and so repeat the layers until the mould is full, finishing with the cream. Then set on ice till wanted. Teach Ice Cream One pint of cream, one quart of new milk, one and one-ha'f cups of sugar, one pint of peach pulp well Fweetened, two eggs, one generous tablespoonful of flour, one scant tablespoonful of vanilla. Heat the milk in a double boiler. Mix four with sugar and stir in the beaten es:??. Rtir th mixture gradually Into the boiling milk and cook, stirring constantly, at least ten minutes or until the raw taste Imparted by the flour has entirely disappeared. The flour Is not detected If sufficiently cooked and seems to rive a body and smoothness to the cream which it otherwise lacks. When the custard is cold add flavoring and cream and freeze. The peach pulp should be added when the cream is half frozen. If a very rich ice cream is desired the proportions of milk and cream may be reversed, although the amounts given will prove more satisfactory to the general taste. Tomato Fritters Use for these fritters a can of tomatoes, eight slices of stale bread about half an. inch thick, one tablespoonful cf butter, one of flour, one teaspootiful of salt, one of sugar, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of pepper, two eggs and a pint of crumbs of bread or crackers. Cook the tomatoes, salt, pepper and sugar together In a stewpan for ten minutes. Rub the flour and butter together and stir into the cooking mixture. Cook for three minutes longer; then rub through a strainer. Spread the slices of bread on a platter and pour the strained tomato over them. After they have stood for half an hour turn them over and let them stand ten minutes lontrer. that both sides may be well covered with the sauce. Beat the cgs well and dip the toast first in the eggs and then in the bread crumbs. Put a few slices Into a frying basket and cook in boiling fat for two minutes, repeating the process until all the slices have been thus toasted. Drain well and serve very hot.
