FARMS AND FARMERS.

ADVICE TO POULTRY RAISERS. As we are some distance from a targe market; writes a practical poultry raiser, our surplus stock of fowls and chickens are* sold to . the local dealers. While we are marketing the cockerels, which are always in good demand, we begin to work off the. old hens with them in August and September, taking them as they* begin to moult, for they will lay but little more till along in the winter and had better be out of the way of the pullets, of which we aim to raise enough to replace all the old hens every fall. As the pullets begin tosh ow red combs and look like laying, we prepare nests where they may find them and note which ones begin laying first and at what age. We keep record of hens set in spring and time of setting. The pullets that begin to lay a month or six weeks before others are much more desirable, as they pay for their raising before the others commence, and also they are the ones to mark for our breeding another year. We have a Plymouth Rock pullet which commenced laying at four and a half months old and others in same brood will follow in a few days. We consider these pullets worth very much more for breeding than the tardy ones that will not lay till six or seven months old, as like begets like in egg pro-, duction as in form and in color. By care and careful selection of earliest and best layers any one can build up a good laying strain of fowls, if they are not up to the standard in feather. It is the business fowl for the farmer that we are interested in, and we know by expensive experience that the fowls from eggs of show birds of noted laying breeds will not always be profitable egg producers. The merits which are In sight are the ones judged upon in the show room, and egg production is not taken into account, so one may expect different strains of the same breed of fowls to vary greatly in this respect. But if one is breeding pure blood fowls he can, by selecting the earliest pullets from his own yards, greatly inprease the egg laying qualities and still not depart materially from standard birds.

TO KEEP HOGS HEALTHY. The causes of diseases among swine, and the best remedies, are unsolved problems in the estimation of multitudes who have reared hogs for a quarter of a century. But a majority of our people will continue to try experiments. Nearly every man of large experience in fattening this class of stock, who has not a favorite medicine of his own, will try every remedy proposed by any man professing to be a veterinary surgeon. Keep your hogs in good clean fields; give them access to pure water —even though you should be compelled to dig a deep well for that purpose; a good pump and plenty of suitable troughs, cleansed every week, will cost but little and will always prove a valuable outlay. Provide ajso in the dryest part of the field a good shelter, both from suit and rain. A few rails properly arranged two or three feet from th e ground—a means of education—was first necessary absolutely to establish the fact. Somebody—Hoard, we think —once said that he had no use for common sense unless it came down where he lived. That is not the way to feel —not the way to put it. It is mighty weak common sense ■that gets down where some people live. The child with its untrained, simple mind can utilize nothing but a verysimple common sense. -Common sense teaches the man that the animal should be fed at certain times, on certain kinds of food and in certain quantities. But that sort of common sense cannot get down to where the young child lives; it is no better than nonsense to it. The child must be brought up to where that sort of common sense lives; and so must we who do not fully understand the science of breeding and feeding. ,We must not be satisfied to depend upon an immature—an ignorant common sense.—Farmers’ Voice.

HOW A BALKY MARE WAS CURED. A farmer had a mare that would sometimes work well for a tveek, and then, perhaps at a critical time, would stand stubbornly, resisting all effort to move her. One day while drawing in oats she balked. After working with her a long while he resolved that she shouldjgo or starve. He drove a stake down in the ground" and tied her to it, then putting a sheaf of oats a few rods distant he went off. This was at 10 o’clock in the morning. About 5 o’clock he returned and tried to start her, but she would not go. He tied her again to the post and let her stand until morning. Then he unhitched her, took the reins and tried to start her, but she would not pull. During the afternoon he tried her again, When she went. Upon reaching the sheaf of oats, he let her eat it. He now drove, her home, unharnessed and fed h«jr, and she never balked again. . My chickszjs are not allowed to remain out at night during any time of their existence. I have spent half an hour at night with a lantern hunting for a single chicken which had stayed out of its coop, assured that if it remained out it had small chance of living orer night. I have tried the method at times and never failed to lose my poetry. Hens that had stolen their ntsts, or young chicks grown tired ©f the coop’s close quarters, have been allowed to remain out and loss has always resulted.

HORSES IN HOT WEATHER.

Good Care Better than Spasmodic Dosing With Drugs. Baltimore Sun. With the mercury hovering about the nineties, horse owners and drivers should consider means to protect the comfort and health of their four-footed servants. Dr. Robert Ward, State veterinarian, gives some simple rules for treating horses overcome by the heat and for preventing them from being affected by the scorching rays of the sun. “When a horse is overcome,” Dr. Ward said yesterday, “get it into a shady spot, throw cold, water on its head and elevate the head so that the horse can breathe easily. Give slowly a half-ounce doze of aromatic spirits of ammonia in a pint bottle of water. Repeat the remedy in art hour if the horse does not recover. Rub the body and legs to get up a circulation of blood oi? the surface. Keep back the bystanders that the horse may get air. This is just as necessary as for a human being. The treatment is the same as might beTdllbwed fbr a~ mani, and is much better than dosing the animal with many drugs. “I have seen many horses die from sunstroke simply because some persons kept giving them medicind when simple treatment would havq relieved them. The main thing is to give nature a chance to-assert herself and to combat the depressing effects of the prostrated powers. After treatment there should be care in diet and prevention of exposure to the sun.

“As precautionary measures, the feed of horses in hot weather should be changed from hard grain to a more easily digestible diet of bran mashes. Give half an ounce or a tablespoonful of hyposulphite of soda dissolved in water morning and night. This is a remedy which if it cost $5 a pound instead of 5 cents would probably be thought more' of and used more. It destroys the life of the lower organic being found in the system by its deoxdizing powers. Besides, —it arrests fermentation along with its action on microscopic fungi by correcting the fermentative substance in the blood. It is useful in low febrile and malignant diseases and is also largely used for a local application to skin and mouth sores in summer. “Look after the horse’s collar and harness. Often the collar is too tight and impedes the return circulation of the blood from the head. The side or overdraw check rein should be dispensed with entirely in hot weather. “A wet sponge covered on top and put between the horse’s ears is useful. Frequent wettings of the sponge produces an evaporation which by cooling the head lessens the risk of sunstroke. Occasional sponging with cool water under the collar and washing out the mouth with water are refreshing to a horse. This plan was tried with success by the City Passenger Railway Company when horses were used on its car lines. “When a horse is not working it should have cool and comfortable quarters. Roof ventilation of stables should always be maintained when possible. The light ammoniacal vapor charging the stable air cannot force its way through windows against the heavier air pressure outside the building.”

MISCELLANEOUS NOTES. Cast iron bricks are a German novelty. Minnesota has a dairy school for women. Much foreign capital is invested in Western cattle ranches. More dogs are killed by trolley cars than by railroad trains. In the last century English naval officers dressed in scarlet. Lawn tennis is more popular in England than in any other country.

Mr. Multy’s Story.

Tapper's Magazine. “Speakin’ of stories gittin’ start- 1 id,” remarked old Mr. Multy, as het arranged the piles of brown wrap-’ ping paperinto a more comfortable; cushion on top of the nail keg, “ih* ioes beat all. It come mighty nigh* ?oin’ hard with ol’ Jim Johnsin oncei jn account of a story growin’ a’ little. , “Tell us about it," said the young; aew clerk, to whom most of thei corner store stories were as yet new. ; “Well, you see,” began Mr. Multy,, “old Dekin Swaller come home to dinner one day, an he happens tosay to Mrs. Swaller ‘I met young' Slimmers to-day, an’ he said that he£ heerd that Jim Johnsin was thinkin jf buyin’ the Jwidder Spriggins’' place.’ “Jes as soon 1 as the dekin had' 1 gone down town agin Mrs. Swaller 1 puts her shawl on an’ steps across to Anatashy Soper’s an’ says. ‘What, do you s’pose I heered this mornin?, lim Johnsin has bought the Widderl Spriggins’ place. I wonder if he’s goin’ to take the widder along with; the rest of the prop’ty?’ “ ‘Jes like as not,’ said Anastashy.i ‘an’ his wife is not dead yet six 1 months!’ ■ “Soon after Mrs. Swaller’d gone, Anastashy skipped»over to ol’ Mrs. Grumpy. She had to talk loud to the ol’ lady on account o’ her deef-i ness, an’ even then Mrs. Grumpy* didn’t ketch quite ail she said an’ had' to guess some.

“Anatashy says: ‘Have you heerd the news? Jim Johnsin’s goin’ to marry the widder Spriggins for hen prop’ty.’ “ ‘How?’ “ ‘That’s what they say. I alius heerd he thought a good deal of the widder ’fore his first wife died.’ “ ‘Yes, that’s so. What are they goin’ to do with Jim’s two children?’ “‘I don’t believe "the widder’ll have ’em round. They’ll prob’ly have to send 'em to the orphan asylum.’ “‘How?’. “‘Orphan asylum.’ An’ Anastashy she happened to think she'd left three pies in the oven, an’ she skipped back home ’fore the old lady could half get the thing straight. She had roomatics so bad she couldn’t git out to carry the news along, an’ she was on nettles till young Mrs. Fred Gadabout come in, an’ then she says, all of a tremor, ‘Did you hear the news? Jim Johnsin’s goin’ to marry the widder Spriggins to git the farm old man Spriggins worked so hard to pay for.’ “ ‘Goodness gracious!’ “ ‘How?’ “ ‘Goodness gracious!’ “ ‘Who did?’ “ ‘I say, goodness gracious!’ “ ‘Yes, I guess so. And Jim’s two childern has gone clean crazy about it, an’ they’re talkin’ 'bout sendin’ ’em to the ’sylum-’ “ ‘You don’t tell me!’ □ “‘How?’ “ ‘You don’t tell me!’ “ ‘I haven’t heerd, but there’s been talk that Jim thought a good deal of the widder ’fore his first wife died, an’ that maybe he pizened her.’ “ ‘Mercy! He ought to be hung!’ “ ‘How?’ “ ‘They ought to hang him!’ “ ‘Well,’ says the old lady, chuck-lin’-4o- herself—-well,’ says-she r ’it he marries the widder Spriggins he’ll wish they had.’ ”

Order as a Fetich.

Harper's Bazar. A house in which there is no orderly routine is a very uncomfortable place, no doubt, but too much order may be equally disagreeable and wearing, the nerves of the family being rasped as were those of the people who lived with R. Wilfer’s wife. People to whom order is not the means to a desired end, but the end itself, give themselves and others a great deal of nervous trouble. A chair or a book out of place distresses them- A blur on the window pane drives them to distraction unless they can at once remove it. A meal slightly delayed beyond the ■appointed hour loses for them its savor. Order is their fetich. In vain their friends beg them to be philosophical, to try elasticity as a sort of buffer against annoyances. They shake their heads wearily, and keep on fretting. And the fretting marks their foreheads and indents their lips and writes its record on their faces, while husbands and children sigh for a little cheerful happy -go • lucky disorder. The daughter of the over-orderly mother is often, by the law of reaction, -an absurdly unsystematic personage.

The Fondest Hour Memory Recalls.

The question naturally suggests itself, Which is “the fondest hour memory recalls’" Sas the readbr, whose attention we hope to engage, ever haa a controversy with his stomach an the subject of dyspepsia. After convincing proofs that the digestive organ has got the upper hand, has a wise resort been made to Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters? If so, the “fondest hour” has been recalled by memory in the shape of a lasting resumption of the power to digest, assimilate thoroughly and eat heartily without fear of being uncomfortable afterward. When the dinner bell, that “tocsin of the soul,” strikes agreeably upon the ear, the auditor then greets it as a welcome sound and hastens to obey its summons. The bitters, so renowned is a stomachic, overcome too, malarial, bilious rod kidney trouble, and remedy nervousness, rheumatism and sick headache.
