HERALD AND GEORGIAN, 3ANDER3VILLE, GA.
A SCENE IN THE HOUSE,
Mitking Fodder Palntnble.
While we would not advocate tlio
substitution of fodder for grain by any
menu*, there is no doubt but whnt more
fodder may be fed to advantage by the
majority of dairymen with a corre
sponding cheapening of the grain bill.
For example: During the first mouth
when the cows are on pasture, before
the feeding is very good, we follow the
same plan of feeding ns durlug the
winter, namely, preparing mixed ra
tion of fodder and grains.
Pretwrlilf Kri,
If eggs are cheap in the local mar
ket, why not preserve them for use In
the fail and wiuter? The water-glass
way is the best. Dilute the commer
cial solution with ten times Its bulk
of water. A gallon will cover seventy-
tive dozen eggs. Next winter they will
bring only a few cents a dozen less
than fresh eggs. Preserve only fresh
eggs. No process enu improve a stale
ogg. Pack in wooden or earthen ves
sels, putting the eggs In from day to
day with a wooden spoon to avoid
breakage. Keep them covered with
the solution and keep the vessels cov
ered aud in a cool place.
tllizers are an economy, and, while the
same thing holds good in theory on the
small scale, yet iu practice, as the
amount Involved is so little, It Is wiser
to hnve one all-round fertilizer. Suc
culent vegetables particularly will
thrive ou nitrogen. It makes them
grow rapidly, and that means tender
ness. Totash is used to Improve the
quality. Phosphoric e.cld helps to build
the tissue of the plant. What a fertil
izer contains can always he ascertained
by reading the analytic which must
accompany It. Look only for those
three terms. Don't regard anything
else. How much to use? Of course,
the answer largely depends on the
grade of fertilizer. Stable mnnure can
be spread on three inches thick. A
pound of nitrate of soda is sufficient
to cover from eighty to one hundred
square feet.—Garden Magazine.
Don’t Neglrct tlie Stsble*.
Many dairymen who are inclined to
V exceedingly cleanly nbout the
stables during the winter give them
little cure during the summer when
the cows are largely milked in the
pasture, a plan of milking many fol
low. There are days and nights dur
ing the summer when the cows must
be housed and the milking done In the
stables, lienee if they have been neg-
lec^l the milk Is sure to absorb any
undesirable odor that may exist.
We find It an excellent plan to clean
the stables thoroughly just as soon as
the cows are turned onto the grass, and
Mils thoroughness consists in wusblng
the walls and floors with a strong so
lution of carbolic acid, then going over
them thoroughly with whitewash. In
this manner all germs and odors are
■destroyed. This Is by no nienns all, for
each week the stables arc thoroughly
purl tied so tbnt there will be no pos
sible odor to spoil the milk.
Poultry House.
As the henlth of fowl depends largely
upon the plnce they roost, I thought I
would tell the renders of the Epitom-
1st something nbout a poultry house.
Make It where It will not be too windy.
Have lots of ventllntiou, sun and light.
The roosting room does not need to be
ary large. Nests should be nbout
eighteen inches from the floor aud tin
ier dropping boards. Always clean
the dropping board every morning and
never Have roosts one higher tlmu the
other, ns it causes fowls to all try to
oust on the highest one. Never have
Hnwlnc Crimson Clorer.
Many who are havlng t thelr first ex
perience with crimson clover make the
mistake of sowing it in the spring,
usually sowing it in with the rye. The
idea is that if this is done there will
be a fairly good crop to turn under in
the fall. Possibly this may work in
some cases and some tectlous, although
it is not a safe proposition to follow
generally. By far the better plan
would be to sow the crimson clover
seed in July or August in some culti
vated crop, corn being the usual crop
la which It Is sown. The result of
this plan would be a good crop of
clover the following spring iu nine
cases out of ten where the soil was
suited to the crimson clover. This
plan will not In any way interfere
with the proper cultivation of the corn
or other crop which will have ceased
before the time for sowing the clover.
For Sbtllcd Corn.
Where considerable corn has to he
shelled for the animals on the farm It
Is often wasted by falling on the barn
floor and through the cracks between
1be boards. The device here suggested
is easily mrde, aud if correctly made
t
certainly save the corn to the
last grain. Mnke a box three feet
long, eighteen inches wide and ten or
twelve inches deep. Cover over one
cod of this, at the top, on which to
fasten the corn sheller. Make an in
dined bottom to within eight inches of
the emj, which remains open. Put
legs under this box and set it blgu
enough so that a pall or a bag can be
set under the open end bottom tb catch
the grains of corn ns they come from
the sheller. If a bag is used, hooks
tdll have to be put in the sides of
the bottom of the box on which to hang
the bag. \ high box or a pall would
he preferable to the bag. The cost of
•baking this device is very small; any
°he with a few tools can do it, and it
^lll certainly ".ve both corn and labor,
i'he illustration shows the plan so
dearly that no further explanation is
necessary.—Indianapolis News.
Making Vegetables Tender. ~
Many people have a notion that a
black soil must of necessity be a rich
°“e. But, on the contrary, It may be
almost devoid of nitrogen, and so
stands in need of some fertilizer.
" hile it is true that garden soils in
seneral have a sufficiency of both pot-
as h and phosphoric acid in them, the
chances are that these two food ma
terials are to a certain extent “locked
t>P”—that is, they are not Immediately
available to tl^e plant, and are only
taken out by slow degrees. Therefore,
the amateur gardener will And that the
best all-round fertilizer for him to buy

and moderate quantities of the other
two substances. Of course, for. large

twice a week and have plenty of litter
on tho floor. I prefer a ground floor.
Always after you clean the poultry
house sprinkle lime around in the cor
ners and put lots of llcc-klller in nests
and on fowls. Always have a box of
grit for the fowls and some dust boxes.
And give tho fowls fresh water twice

Vain* of Dost Mulch.
Most of the readers of this depart
ment know something of the import
ance of the so-called dust mulch dur
ing the season of cultivation, although
nil do not fully renlize whnt it would
mean to them if they wo")d carry out
the plan thoroughly. Most of us who
have to work the sod realize the im
portance of conserving the moisture in
it in order that the plants may use it
during the periods of excessively dry
weather which are usur.i all through
the country. They understand, too,
that a soil allowed to remain unstirred,
especially if it is of a clayey nature,
will dry. bake nnd then crack. As a
result the moisture In the soil is lost
by evaporation. On the other hand, if
the surface soil to the depth of two
or three inches is kept very fine, a
dust, so to speak, the capillar:' action
on top is destroyed and the water is
retained in the soil so that the roots
of the plant have the benefit of it. Any
cultivated crop treated in this manner
can be readily improved, the crop be
much larger, and, after all, the labor
In raising it much reduced for the work
necessary to retain the dust mulch de
stroys the weeds so that we get the
valuable dust mulch without labor.-*
Iudianapolis News.
A Washington special says: Not in
many years has tho house of repre
sentatives witnessed a more dramatic
scene than it witnessed Thursday, in
cident to the adoption of the confer
ence report on Btatehood.
A round of cheers from both Bides
of the chamber' greeted Chairman
Hamilton of the committee, while he
moved the adoption of the report.
While there was no discussion on the
report itself, a more unexpected epi
sode occurred.
Marcus A. Smith, the delegate from
Arizona, took occasion In a guarded
way to insinuate that there had been
undue Influence used In postponing
an agreement.
.Smarting yndor what he believed to
be a direct Insinuation against him,
Speaker Cannon impetuously left the
chair, calling Mr. Dalzell to the desk,
nnd, taking a position In the aisle,
he asked the speaker pro tom. for
five minuteh to explain his position.
Thunders of applause greeted the
speaker a3 he stood with hand up
lifted, his head shaking, waiting for
quiet In the house.
Finally order was restored, and
then, measuring every word, Speaker
Cannon said:
"Mr. Speaker: As a member of the
house of representatives during this
session as at all other sessions, I have
represented my constituents, and act
ed for the whole people according to
my best judgment. The coming Into
the union of Oklahoma and the In
dian Territory meets my approval. If
I had any choice, and were Infinitely
supreme. I would prefer to see Okla
homa nnd the Indian Territory come
separately with an aggregate popula-
t’nn of two and almost one-half mil
lions, with four senators, rather than
to see New Mexico and Arizona como
together, and God knows, rather to
see them come Blngly with about 300,-
000 population with four senators.
"You have the result before you,
Although every man in the Indian
Territory should vote against state
hood for the proposed new state
of Oklahoma, notwithstanding that
protest tho state would be and will
be formed under this enabling act.
There is no separate vote there. There
Is a separate vote, however, as to
the other two. I would not have
taken the floor had not the honora
ble gentleman, the dolegate from Ari
zona (Mr. Smith) made the remark
that there was a high penalty for the
governor of that territory to attempt
to Influence legislation, or for one
legislative body or its membership
to attempt to traffic in legislation
with the other in order to_ secure
certain other legislation. If I correctly
state him. That remark could not
have had but one motive and one
meaning, and that meaning is that
some one in the house has sought
to affect legislation in the house as
a matter of traffic in order to secure
action upon this matter in the senate.
That Imputation implied, so far as I
know or believe upon any other mem
ber of this house, is unwortthy of the
gentleman that uttered it, and is with
out foundation in fact.” (Loud ap
plause.)
When Speaker Cannon finished the
house was. in an uproar. It could not.
be controlled, nor did the presiding
officer make any effort toward con
trolling it. Members who had sat in
silence during the delivery of the
speech, democrats and republicans
alike, crowded around the speaker
to shake him by the hand, and tell
him how glad they were that the long
drawn orit fight for statehood had
been happily ended In a compromise,
and that his speech voiced the senti
ments of the members.
OFFICERS HELD RESPON8IBILE.
Farm Note*.
New blood should be introduced fre
quently.
Crowding is a foe to thrift and pro
ductiveness.
Injurious effects are often produced
by inbreeding.
A hen, to be profitable, should lay a
dollar’s worth of eggs in a year.
In supplying water to little chickens
arrange so that they can not get their
feet wet.
Farmers have come to value sweet
mirk for feeding as never before. Hun
dreds of pounds of pork are now
grown with skim milk and meal.
One of the prettiest flowers of au
tumn is the cosmos. Don’t neglect to
plant them, and plant now, as they
are of slow growth and late bloomers.
The man who goes to his stable, wa
ters his horses and gives them a light
feed the last thing every night before
he retires always has round, sleek,
good-looking animals.
Sklm-mllk for pig feeding is worth
more than the average farmer has ever
estimated, and we doubt if even the
experimental stations have been able
to figure out its real value when used
carefully in pork making.
One hundred pounds of milk will
produce from 15 to 23 pounds of cream.
The best and largest amount of course
Is secured by using cream separators,
which always save a much larger per
cent. of cream than can be saved any
other way. The amount c.f cream also
depends upon the quality of the milk.

Surplus Cash from State Farm.
The state prison commission has
Just turned Into the state treasury
$3,139.71 from the sale of small farm
products raised on the state farm near
MlUedgevllle. The products sold
were such as hay, potatoes, vegeta
bles, hogs and beef, raised In excess
of the quantity needed tor consump
tion on the farm.
While no definite day has been fix
ed, the commission has decided to sell
the state’s 500 bales of cotton grown
on the farm, at once, and that this
will be put on the market, probably
the latter part of this month. It Is ex-
the brands handled by this firm, as
being purely artificial, made of co
logne spirits and colored with cara
mel.
Continuing, Mr. Johnson said: “I
want to say a word or two about the
quality of stuff this firm sells. Take
‘Old Joe,’ one of their leading brands.
Only a short time ago, State Chemist
John M. McCandless was employed
by a party in South Carolina to ana
lyze this high class whisky, and here
is what he said: ‘I regard Old Joe
as a purely artificial whisky, manu
factured from cologne spirits and col*
ored with caramel.’ In this connection
I may add that I am Informed that
Bluthenthal & Bicket use 5,000 bar
rels of cologno spirits a year, and doc-'
tor it up and call it whisky.”
Mr. Johnson concluded hts attack
by recalling a raid which he stated
was made a few years ago by the
United States government upon ‘hts
firm for the purpose of confiscating
fraudulent liquors and liquors uuder
