Farm Notes.

The following useful farm notes
fronj U)tl , jivH 8tock ] 1K |ica-
j tor, and might be of none mtwwt
I to ° ur :
j A small milker is oiton a gOOvi
bather maker.
Feed two nr three times a day,
! but fet d enough.
Kern all boards and sticks out of
j the land lots.
| Cooking the food makes it eas¬
j ier to masticate.
One noast utilize and save all
i that gets to the barn.
| Much of the losses on the farm
comes from small leaks.
It is poor economy to allow your
! farm teams to run down.
With mi st stock, breeds affect
profit more than quality.
With all animals, cleanliness is
a preventative of disease.
Barley makes a good grain food
for either hogs or horses.
Many good breeders prefer train¬
ing mares after breeding.
To make a success of farming
one has to be schoeled to it.
The farmer who has much to
sell usually has but little to buy.
Even in Winter it is an item to
! keep your watering troughs clean.
Corn lack in muscle forming
and strength giving material.
In nearly all cases it will be best
to deepen the soil gradually.
If the hay is the least musty, al¬
ways moisten it before feeding.
Overworked butter nearly always
presents a greasy appearance.
The poor, unthrifty hog is often
the prey of vermin or parasites.
In too many cases growing stock
are fed too much fattening food.
Good roads reduce the cost of
getting farm products to market.
Oats is one of the very best feeds
that can bo given to growing colts.
All food given in excess of the
food of support, is the food of pro¬
duction.
The best time to haul out and
apply manure is when the manure
is ready.
Feeding good stock is one of the
cheapest ways of securing good
manure.
Animals will rarely thrive best
on dry feed alone, no matter how
rich or plentiful.
The rapid taking on of fat is not
always a sure indication of health
and thrift.
The best ratio for feeding hay
and grair is the one that will make
the most money.
The long Winter evenings is a
good time to learn from the expe¬
rience of othems.
Generally the nearer home a pro¬
duct can be marketed the more
profitable it will be.
One important item with the
mangers or racks is to have them
so that the feed can be put into
them with the least labor.

Opportunities of the- South,
The following extract is taken
from an article in the Baltimore
Sun of recent date:
“The true policy of the South is
to invite both, capital and immigra¬
tion from the north, and to offer
every inducement to both to come
and take up a residence in the
South. The northern immigrant
who settles in the South today no
longer comes with sentiments an¬
tagonistic to‘social institution’ that
which provoked his antagonism has
disappeared. Ha comes to identi¬
fy himself with the people and with
the soil, and to bring with him, not
only his habits of industry, of en¬
terprise and thrift, but also the
ideas of a law-abiding American
citizen. The practical legislation
in the south which is needed to fos¬
ter and encourage the right sort of
immigration, and with it the in¬
vestment of northern capital,should
have for its primary objects the es¬
tablishment of good roads, good
schools and the prompt and order¬
ly administration of justice. More
than any other threr things'within
the power of a state legislature to
foster and promote, these three
tilings are necessary to build up and
secure the material prosperity of a
co cnir. unity.’’
