Care for the brood sow.
Hay Is scarce this year.
In a fairly cool spot sow some peas
for September use.
The only way to be sure of good
dairy stock Is to raise it
The food of the duck Is both vege
table and animal In nature.
A thrifty growth of the plants now
means better fruit next year.
Muttons sheep give the best returns
when fed for that purpose when
young.
Extra feed increases growth, if of
a suitable kind, and makes larger ani
mals at maturity.
A hard collar is not as hard upon
tho shoulders of a horse as one that
Is unevenly padded.
Never offer a pound of poor butter
for sale.- Better take it right out and
bury it in the back lot
If your sheep get scab, better clean
them all out and begin over. It is the
best way to cure that disease.
Money makes the mare go, but you
have got to hustle around and get the
money, or the mare will stand stilt
Clover bloat can usually be pre
vented by keeping the cattle off the
clover when It Is wet from dew or
rain.
In pruning do not forget that, sum
mer pruning induces fruit bearing,
ind wood growtn is promoted by win
ter pruning.
Too much onions, fish scrap and
stale meat often cause eggs to have
bad odor. It is unsafe to feed stale
food to hens.
Half bushel picking baskets, each
provided with a light iron hook, will
bruise the apples much less than when
picked Into a bag.
When a cow once falls off In milk
production it Is more difficult to
bring her back to her full flow than
to so feed her as to keep her as near
her capacity as possible.
Butter-making can be readily re
duced to a system, and should be. It
Is the slip-shod way that causes so
much poor butter to be sent to mar
ket Horses under five years of age are
more likely to suffer from "sunstroke"
or overheating than are those which
are more mature and more seasoned
to work.
The care that trees receive during
the summer will help materially to
determine the number and vitality of
the fruit buds which will be formed
this season for next year's crop.
Pigs should be sorted as to size and
each lot kept by itself. This is not
much trouble and will enable the lit
tle fellows to stand a better show at
the feeding trough.
Keep the surface of the soil as loose
and fine as possible and the soil will
not lose moisture by evaporation. A
good hoeing is often as beneficial as a
good rain In dry weather.
The man who thinks It a woman's
work to keep a garden going was not
built on the right lines. The garden
should be considered as Important as
any other part of the farm and treat
ed accordingly.
To produce milk economically we
should use the roughage of our farms
wherever It Is possible, for by so do
ing we not only save the labor of haul
ing bulky material, but will also build
up the fertility of our land.
There appears to be some complaint
about getting the ewes with lamb
when they are allowed the run of a
clover pasture, and therefore many
think it best to cut and cure the
clover for the Iambs and provide oth
er pasturage or soiling crops for the
breeding ewes.
Winter radish seed are mixed with
the turnip at the time of sowing the
latter in the fall. The radishes will
grow with the same treatment that is
given the turnips. They are harvest
ed and stored together for winter
use. The radishes keep well and
rj-e excellent for use In winter.
For the first weete of a pig's life
the mother's milk is its drink as well
as food, and therefore in caring for
suckling sows it should be the ain: to
so feed thorn that milk of only medi
um richness will be furnished instead
of a limited supply of that which is
extremely rich, the latter being less
healthful and more liable to cause
thumps, scours and unsatisfactory
growth.
Sanitary care of the feeding boxes
for the show animals should be care
fully studied, for the neglect will oft
en cause a fastidious appetite Instead
of a healthy robust one, and many a
time an animal is blamed for being a
delicate feeder, and often ailing, when
in reality the fault is with the man
agement in not having attended to
these two things.
Study sanitary car of feed boxes.
Grade your honey systematically.

Keep the spray pump going In the
potato patch.
Hard coal ashes make a nice cool
mulch for currant bushes.
Too many fanners sacrifice quality
for mere sis in tb selection of a
ram.
la order to realize the most for
wool, there must be a uniformity of
condition.
An animal that Is only fed enough
to be kept alive is of no practical
value to the owner.
When the lambs have just been
weaned they require the best possible
care and need good pasture.
Phosphoric acid tends to Increase
frultfulness. but a liberal supply of
potash Is of almost equal importance.
The grain for calves should be fed
first while the calf Is quite small
with a little bran to aid In learning
to eat
A few hens carefully watched and
liberally fed are more profitable than
a large number forced to forage for
their living.
When-you see many bees hunting
around nooks and corners, you may
be sure there Is robbing going on
somewhere.
A good horse used in a common
sense manner should live to an old age
and be in condition to perform good
work at all times.
During the hot weather the garden
should receive very frequent cultiva
tion to keep down the weeds and
conserve the moisture.
There is no reason why a man with
an acre patch of potatoes should not
spray for blight the same as a man
who has ten acres or more.
Cultivation should not be continued
too late In the season, or the wood
will not harden by the time winter
sets In, and the trees will be Injured.
As a rule, no cultivating should be
done In the orchard during the next
two months. If the soil is in good
tilth and clean of weeds ft is best not
to disturb in hot dry weather.
The cowpea will thrive under unfa
vorable conditions of soil preparation.
It Is, however, a plant that responds
most readily and profitably to thor
oughly deep breaking and pulveriza
tion of the land.
The difference between the dairy
farmer and the exclusive farmer is
usually the difference between a
monthly milk check and a monthly
grocery bill.
Asparagus is subject to the attacks
of a number or fungi, the most wide
spread and destructive being the rust,
a fungus long known In Europe, but
observed here within recent years.
Good ventilation and good drainage
are absolutely necessary in keeping
calves, or indeed any other animal,
healthy, but more particularly young
stock.
Asters suffer from root lice, which
invariably kill them in a short time,
if undisturbed. These lice also at
tack chrysanthemums, clematis, and
like plants. Where those pests are at
work, there will be ants also.
Young animals make a much more
rapid growth In proportion to size
than older ones, and the ratio Is de
creased as they approach maturity:
but they eat much more In proportion
to live weight and tho flesh contains
much more water.
It is a law of nature that all plants
must have a season of rest from ac
tive growth. In the tropics this is
done in the dry season. No plant
can be forced Into continual growth
without weakening it and finally kill
ing it
A good many farmers who have
cows are now aware of what a splen
did investment of time and money it
would have been had they sown a plot
of ground to peas and oats last spring
to supplement the pasture that is now
getting parched by the extended
drought
A few one-year-old hens and a
flock of young early hatched pullets
well cared for and carefully culled
will yield more winter eggs than a
flock twice the size consisting of a
mixture of old and young hens, late
and early hatched pullets, some half
moulted, etc
As the sire Is half the flock in the
sense of his influence upon the lamb
crop the few extra dollars required to
purchase a pure-bred animal of the
breed which may be favored by any
sheep owner is a small consideration
as compared to even a slight improve
ment in the lamb crop.
Some one has said that the measure
of the corn crop depends not so much
on the fertility of the land as on the
available amount of moisture during
the growing season. This is a truth
which many of us fail to realize, and
we are oftentimes found blaming the
poorness of our corn land when w '
ought to be blaclae out own lack of
industry with the cultivator.
The importance of plenty of shade
cannot be overestimated. Stock may
be housed during the day, if neces
sary, in darkened stables through
which air may pass, where the ani
mals will be less annoyed by flies. An
ample supply of water is also an es
sential, and the water supply should
be well protected even though It costs
considerable labor to haul water from
a distance. Good food is also essen
tial at this time. Green feed is pref
erable, although dry hay may be
used without serious result

NATIONAL DEBT UP A NOTCH.
Complete Turnover of Four Millions
from Month of July.
Washington. With an increase of
$3,273,325 in the public debt and a to
tal deficit of $17,371,468.08, the United
States treasury closed the second
month of the fiscal year, keeping on
an even keel, all circumstances con
sidered, with a working balance of
$30,826,057.23 on-hand and the general
fund down to $89,523,207.59.
The increase In public debt, which
is a complete turnover of four millions
in round numbers from the month of
July, is due largely to an excess of na
tional bank deposits over redemp
tions. The general rule of excess of
expenditures over receipts during July
and August is also a contributor.
Total receipts in the month of
August were $34,969,253.54, roughly
five millions more than for the same
month last year. This brings the re
ceipts for the year over the $113,000.
000 mark and five millions better than
those of tho preceding year.

Jane Addams has done so much to ex

new and potent kind of melting pot
Its idea Is to create a mutual under
standing between different classes of
the community and between different
races. Hull house, which Miss Ad

puts it Mrs. Flahrity of the Lake
