Dodder, a Farm Pest.
podder Is the worst, the most wide
ly distributed and the most rapidly in-
crenshift plant P araaltc which we have
1 thP United States. In Europe It is
looked upon by farmers with such
fofl r that dodder infested seed Is prac-
tically unsalable—Indiana Former.
Silo, an Investment.
The silo preserves corn fodder in
tuch a condition that it is palatable
and stock are eager for It at all times.
This, in itself, slgnifles its quality
ami profits, for stock cannot help do-
l ng W ell If properly fed a feed that
they relish. One can raise a large
amount of feed of this kind upon an
acre of normal land, located In a sec
tion of country where corn can be
raised. A farmer who keeps, say ten
or twelve cows and upward, cannot
make a better or sorer investment
than to build a silo, and he had bet
ter pay a high rate of Interest, If
necessary, than do without one.—
Farmer's Home Journal.
Beginners With Sheep.
Some good advice to those who pro
pose to found a flock, Is given in the
following from the Shepherd’s Crlte-
; rion:
Without nnv knowledge of sheep ft
Is very plain that one has to loam if
be engages in business, if one has no
opportunity to learn from some old
and experienced shepherd, we know of
better way than to learn from the
ihcCp. By observation an Intelligent
person will soon learn their habits
and will nil the better knew how to
manage them, by beginning with a few
Inexpensive sheep one will he able to
bring the business up, and should a
loss come it will not be so great as
when high-priced sheep are bought.
The beginner should never make the
mistake of using a grade or a scrub
ram In breeding. A pure-bred ram is
always advisable, and by obtaining
good ones the flock will soon bb pure
bred to all Intents and purposes. If.
alter several years’ experience has
been obtained, some registered ewes
are wanted the shepherd will be in a
better position to buy them than he
woold have been in the beginning.
a bushel, is hardly In keeping with
my Ideas of good horse sense.—U C.
Brown, in the Indiana Farmer.
Fish Do Not Hear.
Much controversy has taken place
on the question of sense of hearing in
flsh, and many experiments have been
tried with a view of settling it. Some
of the latest of these are those of
which M. Marage has given an ac
count in the Paris Comtes Rendus.
The fish experimented with were
carp, tench, pike, eel and others, and
the author finds no evidence of a
sense of hearing. Sounds were trans
mitted into the water close to the
fish with an energy capable of affect
ing deaf mutes. No effect was pro
duced on the fish.

Late Hatching for Breeders.
| Occasionally fault is found with a
paper because it-gives information
which some readers think so well
known that space should not be tak
en up with it. Nevertheless, not every
one is posted on even the first princi
ples of poultry breeding, as was re
cently demonstrated to us by a cus
tomer for eggs, says Wallace’s Farmer.
This customer, a man past Eixty, who
hinl grown chickens on the farm most
of his life, found time hanging heavi
ly on ills hands in town and decided
to go into the chicken business. His
reading determined him on buying
pure bred stock, so lie started out tbo
first of August on a quest for eggs for
hatching his breeding stock for the
coming spring. Naturally we discour
aged using such immature stock for
breeders, explaining that it would be
Quite sure to disappoint him in the
!ong run, and that even pure breeds
could not be expected to do service in
the breeding pen six months after
hatching. However, he was not con
vinced, and will start hiR incubator in
September, mate males and females,
from the same hatch for breeding
Pens, and if he don't make money from
his matings he will doubtless blame
the stock. Cattle breeders would not
think of risking a season's work with
immature stock; a breeder who de
pended on nine to twelve months old
hdfers to raise him a thrifty herd of
cattle would be laughed at. It is
finite as impossible for immature
chickens to breed strong stock aa for
Immature cattle.
The Livestock Breeder.
The stock owner, just as much as
the manufacturer, has to study care
fully the requirements of his best cus
tomers, if his object is to procure
the best financial results possible. Con
sequently it is the buyer rather than
the breeder who controls popular
fashion in type and pedigree. The
breeder who has pronounced tastes as
to symmetry and character in his
animals, n»d slavish preferences for
certain strains of blood, may by care
ful selection succeed in gratifying his
own ambition; but if his, operations
result In the production of a class
that will command a limited and unre-
munerative market he reaps no very
tangible reward for his labors. On
the other hand, the stock owner
who carefully studies the require
ments and tastes of the best class
of customers, and in practice gives dis
creet priority to them, obtains returns
that are at once gratifying and sub
stantial. It Is the duty and ought to
be the chief aim of a stock owner to
produce the class of animal that is in
demand, and broadly speaking, the
measure of financial success he a-
chieves will vary In accordance with
his attainments in approximating tho
popular Ideal.
While It Is necessary to the achieve
ment of success that prominent con
siderations should he given to the
preferences of buyers In respect to
type and blood, It can hardly be ar
gued tliut breeders ought wholly to
subordinate their own Ideas as to
what constitutes the highest standard
of merit in the breed or breeds of
animals they support. Least of all
should they sink their own opinions
in order to benefit by any inflated
market based upon fancy or fashion.
In farm livestock, especially, fancies
and fashions are exceedingly fickle, as
many a stock owner knows to his cost.
In the final outcome, probably a larg
er number have suffered financial
loss than have netted monetary gain
front u passing boom. Some would
go as far as to say that every en
hanced market which is not based
upon street utility foundations is of
short duration, and productive of in
jurious results. This may convey
a slightly exaggerated idea of the
outcome of what are commonly known
as booms, but there Is no doubt that
anything of the nature of a boom has
to lie regarded with suspicion and care.
There are some who think that breed
ers of certain classes of stock over
step the bounds of prudence in cater
ing for the tustes of certain markets,
but so far the predicted evil conse
quences do not seem to he within
measurable distance. The saving qual
ity in connection with the export mar
kets Is the fact that the preferences
of buyers for export are founded main
ly upon utility considerations of the
highest order. It is not fancy but use
fulness that weighs with them. Their
ideas as to what constitutes the high
est degree of utility may differ from
those of our breeders, just as the opin
ions of a dairy farmer will differ from
those of the grazier respecting the best
type of Shorthorn, hut there is some
thing tangible and enduring in the
class of stock they select and there
fore, in breeding for the export mar
ket, stock owners are reaping a hand
some reward without sacrificing the
usefulness of their herds for home pur
poses. Within reasonable limits the
primary object of a stock owner should
be to breed the class of animal that
will sell to the best advantage.—W. R.
Gilbert, In the Tribune Farmer.
Dangerous Sense of Humor.
G-eorge G. Morton, a machlnest re
siding on Russell street, has many
sore ribs, and all because he laughed
too heartily. He was thoroughly en
joying a Joke played on a coniradJ
with garden hose, and as he watched
the sport from a window he laughed
with great gusto, so much so that
he was seized with pains and had to
be helped to a seat. A medical man
was called and found that he had
fractured a rib and had torn away
part of the lining about another rib.

BLACK, ITCHING SPOTS ON FACE.
Physicians Called It Eczema in Worst
Form—Patient Despaired of Cure
—Cutlcura Remedies Cure Her.
"About four years ago 1 wa* afflicted
with black splotches all over my face and
s few covering my body, which produced a
severe itching irri’alien, and which caused
me a great deal of suffering, to such an ex
tent that I was forced to call in two of the
leading physicians of . After a thor
ough examination of the dreaded eomplaint
they announced it to he skin eczemn in its
worst form. Their treatment did me no
good. Finally 1 became despondent and de
cided to discontinue their services. Then my
husband purchased a Bingle act of the Cuti-
enra Remedies, which entirely stopped the
breaking out. I continued the use of the
Cliticura Remedies for six months, and
after that every splotch wns entirely gone.
I have not felt a symptom of the eczema
since, which was three years ago. Mra.

Notes of the Farm.
No good farmer can afford to keep
scrubs; In the end they cost more
every time.
Every farmer who works as much as
twenty-five acres ought to keep at
least three pure bred sows.
Prairie hay when fed with corn
alone to fattening cattle gives small
and unsatisfactory {Tains and little
or no profit.
Tho dairy bull should be fed like
a working horse and snoulil receive
plenty of exercise. Work him in a
tread power.
The milking is one of the most im
portant parts of the dairy business.
The cows should be milked qulckij,
clean and dry.
Since grain has gone up there has
been a thinning of the poultry Hock on
many a farm with the object of cutting
down the grain bills.
Treat your help as you would like to
be treated, and in nine cases out of ten
there will be no trouble and each will
win the respect of the other.
Keep a record of the breeding ot
each cow, so you will know when she
iy due to calve, and then allow her to
go dry six weeks before calving.
Save good seed. The extra yield
from good seed is like that much gold
poured down in your fields, it costs
you nothirtfc but the extra expense of
carrying it home.
A good time to do your dehorning is
to dehorn the calves with a good de-
homer when they are a few day i Old-
