Don't call on your neighbor just to < borrow something. The doors of opportunity are marked 1 "Push" and "Pull." < 1 Tell your sri/e liow well her cooking tastes and srhat good butter she makes. Don't envy the man who is ridii* around in an auto until you know how big his mortgage is. ' ' Now is a good time to nsiil loose boards 1 on the barn and sheds and to replaee ; broken glass in the windows. I Time may be money, but the avenge man would rather give you two hours' talk than lend you a quarter. He mortgaged the farm to set his son up in buitaess in the citj-p the son failed, end now the sheriff has the farm. 1 " Cultivate the friendship of every farm animal, from the dog to the horse. The man who has not friends of this kind is not apt to have many elsewhere. If we would devote even one hoar each Saturday morning to the little postponer fixing-up teaks, how much we might add to the general appearance of things! When .you want legal advice, hunt up some man who would rather help you to keep out of trouble than to get youout after you are once in up to your knees. "Kind lady, fro just merely trying to keep ! Soul and body together!"— he did not i look thin; But the lady did neither smHe nor weep, As she handed the tramp a safety-pin! The woodchuck, the frog and the skunk went to the sow. The woodchuck got in. for he had a quarter (bind) ; and so did the frog with his greenback; but I the skunk had to go home, for he only had a bad scent. Farmers who have occasion to draw up contracts, agreements, notes, checks, etc., should remember that the safest plan it to employ s pen and ink for this worknever use a lead pencil.

He j discovered that the wagon was tongue lied, and that he had merely heard l-onfc Island Sound.

The farmer at the store or smith shop; the cow loafed in the stable, as the milk pails proved; the horses loafed and grew soft and fat in their stalls, and the very loafed on their roosts until spring before beginning the lay eggs. A , wonderful awakening has come! The modern la-iner is on the job every day of the winter; the cows are doing their best to provide plenty of fifty cent butter, and the cheerful cackle of the hens these blight December days attests the fact that they are inspired by the twentieth century determination to make good at forty-five cents a dozen. — From December Farm Journal.

rathe, fcow-wr, Ue queaticn is very j Fresh air shouuld be supplied in the ben house durfa* the coldest weather even at the ezpeose of warmth. Inasmuch as just a fair barrel of apple® wiU east this season from 84 to to, it wffl be worth while, if one wishes to have the supply last weU through the winter, to take cere in storing them A good way of doing this is to go through the fruit carefully, picking out that which is soundest and freest from blemish, wrapping them in pieces of ' paper and putting in an empty barrel or box. In this sorting process the apples that are overripe, inferior or damaged may be put by themselves and should be used first. In this way none of the fruit need be wasted. He best temperature in which to store apples is as near 32 degrees F. as possible, and for this purpose an upstairs bed- ' room where it it colu will often be a better place of storage than a warm cellar. Do not feed pigs too mucn coin while they are young Com is a tat-produe-ing food and does not accelerate growth. Feed shoats tankage, shorts and bran in , su indent quantities to cause rapid growth. Soil moisture determinations were made on plowed and unplowed soil at the Delaware Experiment Station. On an average for the season the unplowed land contained 5.7 per cent less moisture than the plowed eoiL During the autumn and winter months the subsoil of . the plowed portion contained on an average 8.7 per cent, more moisture than the unplowed portion. Owring to its 'abundance, straw is added to barnyard manure, but it may be made more serviceable if made fine 1 with the feed cutter before being used. While straw may soon rot after being mixed with manure, yet in a fine condition it is a much better absorbent and may be forked into the manure with ad- ' vantage. When loading and spreading4 - manure there is a saving of labor when handling that which is fine, and the manure will be more valuable because the 1 loss of ammonia will be arrested by the use of suitable absorbent materials. Progresive New York farmers no ] longer limit the cultivation of their pota- ( toes to one or two harrowing*. Hey keep the cultivator running continually through their potatoes, and threby | preserving a fine shallow dust mulch , which breaks the attraction of water to the surface and keeps tue soil moist, ; even through long periods of dry weather His is one of the secrets of success In dry farming which is adaptable to East- , era conditions. He other secret of « profitable crop production is a deep soil J well filled with decaying vegetable mattor, spoken of so frequently by the agri- J cultural professors as humus. j The potato crop is a short one through- j out the country as a whole; yet the 1 prices paid for potatoes in the potato- 1 growing districts have been low and unsatisfactory to the growers. The market | papers predict that the price of potatoes i will go higher before spring, Much de- 1 pends, however, on the demand and also j upon the early Southern crop. , At a country fair in Southern Virginia - this fall a prize for the largest yield of 1 corn per acre was awarded to a man who made 169 bushels. A 14-year-old boy raised 135 bushels of corn to the acre and won $25 in gold offered by the ' Governor. These yields demonstrate the ' possibility of good fanning. ' Ordinary milk sours after a day or two 1 but certified milk will keep sweet for as 1 high as two weeks. Certified milk is 1 that which is produced under perfect san- 1 itary conditions, the mils immediately cooled and bottled, and the sanitary eon- ' dit ions and operations of the dairy oer- ' tified to by an expert legal milk com- ' missioner. I To make beef at the least cost and | most profit to the producer, the animal ( must be kept growing rapidly and con- ■ stantly all the time from birth until a i year or 16 months old, and then sent to market. They should bring more per | pound than older beeves because better. Veal (the flesh of calves from six to a eight week. old) brings more than any | other fresh meat in market, unless it be ) "hot house lambs," and there is no good reason why the flesh of yearlings should | not bring more than the patriarchialbeef a of old oxen and superannuated oowa. | It is said that in care of itching skin the hone should be slipped and the grain t ration cut down one-half. No oorn f should be fed. The ennlmal will do beat on oats, bran and bay. Green gram often leads to itchiness of the akin.
