Pinch Lima Beans,
If lima beans, after reaching the
top of the poles throw out long, wan
dering branches pinch off the ends as
a hint to the vine to turn its attention
to making beans, — Farmer's Home

| Avoid Over Fat,
Beware of over fat, inactive hens;
they are almost certain to be a source
of trouble and at the best are un
profitable stock to keep either for
layers or breeding stock. Now is the
time to weed out the drones and get
the flock firmly established on a busi
ness-like basis.—Farmer's Home
Journal.
The Commercial Orchard,
The farmer who has a small family
orchard is in far better position than
the commercial orchardist to with
stand the dry seasons. The average
farmer has an ample supply of straw
which he can utilize as a mulch about
the treeg, and he can also make heavy
applications of stable manure, while
the commercial orchardist has trou
ble in finding enough manure and
straw within hauling distance to give
measure of protection as should be
easy for the average farmer.—Farm
er's Home Journal, :

r T'rovide For the Hens,
' Hens lay well in summer hecause
they exercise, have a variety of green
food and also worms and seeis. Make
the winter condition as mucl like
summer as possible, and the resuits
will be a full egg basket, 'To he sure
it is impossible to supply worms and
green food in winter, but cabbage
and turnips may be put away for win
ter use, and cut clover may be fed
two or three times a week, sealed
with a mess of chopped meat. Then
scatter grain freely in thegscratching
shed that they may have plenty of ex
ercise. No matter how much a bird
eats, if it exercises sufficiently, it will
not grow too fat, so keep the hens at
work,~—Farmer's Home Journal,
; Alfalfa Gains Ground,
" Alfalfa is gaining in populartty in
every section tried. The Vermont
‘Agricultural Station gives the results
of alfalfa growing in that State. The
average total yleld per acre ranged
from two and a half to six tons. The
methods of culture indorsed ineclude
thorough preparationof the soil, early
seeding with grain, preferably with
oats, the use of twenty pounds of
seed per acre, a light annual top
dressing wilh commercial fertilizer,
and the use of land free from weeds,
%fl#ulauy quack grass and dodder.
On proper sofl the crop had fair suc
cess, and all the growers interested
pronounced it profitable, particularly
‘on certuin, kinds of soil. Gravelly or
slaty clay loams with good natural
underdrainage and gently sloping to
provide surface drainage gave the
best results.—American Cultivator.
What Salary Does a Farmer Receive?
He receives the equivalent of a
larger salary than ndnety-nine out of
a hundred of them are willing to ad
mit. They under-estimate their own
profite, and over-estimate the profits
of men living on a salary. There is a
great difference among those who live
by farming, A great many work the
soil because they do not know what
else to do, or because they cannot
live by anything else. Many of this
class hardly deserve to be classed as
farmers, They lower the standard of
farming as a business. I believe there ‘
is no business by which a man can
live so well with so much neglect as!
in agriculture. Still nothing better
repays good care and ability, It is
rather slow to yield brilliant returns
at the outset; so in any business.
The farmer's profits are concealed in
tho rise of lands—in improvements
by ditching, clearing and new build- |
ings, more land, more tools or better}
stock. Most farmers have no idea
how much it costs them to live. They
forget to figure in the pork, poultry,
mutton, butter, flour, vegetables, ete. |
The salary-man lives entirely by his
individual efforts. In estimating a
salary, we must do =0 by looking at
the privileges enjoyved, the hard work
of brain and musgles, and the gain in
property and improvements,.—Week

It Pays to Get Good Sced, ‘
The advantage of securing good
germinating seed must be manifest.
Take, for instance, clover seed. It is
always possible to secure 1t at fifty
cents or s§l a bushel below the mar
ket price quoted by the repular seed
houses. What is the result of using
such seed? It must be a foregone
conclusion that it is poor, worth even
less than the reduced price at which
offered, The land has been prepared
for pasture or hay, and the grass and
clover seed is sown to become the de
pendence of the farmer for his hay
crop. He buys the cheap seed. Twen
ty, thirty, possibly fifty per cent. of
it is an adulteration with old seed,
trefoil or trash. The result may be
half a stand. He has been penny
wise and pound foolish] verily. Sup
pose, on the other hand, he buys
early radish or cabbage seed at a
high price. It is an easy matter for
the dishonest dealer to mix this seed
half and half with old or cheap late
wvariety which he has killed. There
are uozens of tricks in the trade. The
writer was inspecting the famous
Rocky Ford cantaloupe fields in Col
orado some years ago. It was late in
the season, after shipping, and the
fields were covered with thousands of
frosted and immature melons. Seed
dealers’ agents were going around
collecting the seeds from these poor
melons. They could be truthfully
guaranteed as genuine Rocky Ford
- seed, but you wouldn’ want to plant
them.—Farmer’s Home Journal,
} Peaches,
~ Peaches are raised and nurtured in
all parts of the country, but it is gen
‘erally agreed that the most tempting
kind comes from the blue grass re
glon of Kentucky.
~ California peaches are used largely
by Easterners. They are soft and
tender to the touch, rather large and
flowery and are very sweet,
The New England peach is oftem
hard and sour. Some varieties, how
ever, have a splendid flavor. The
best preserved peaches come from
New England.
The New York peach is always of
the clingstone variety. It is almost
impossible to separate the peach
from the stone,
Our annual crop of peaches, while
very expensive to raise (and constant
ly growing more so), gives employ
ment to thousands of men, who labor
night and day to keep the peaches up
to the standard.
The points of a peach are not un
derstood at all. Those who are inter
ested in their culture should care
fully observe the following rules:
Peaches should be handled with
gloves.
They shoulf never be picked when
green, but only when they begin to
look good enough to eat.
Every peach should be well
wrapped. Great care, however, should
“be taken not to squeeze too hard. The
pressure should be uniform,
Change the variety from time to
time, and you will be surprised at
the results. Almost any one variety
of peacn gets tiresome if indulged in
too long, :
Peaches should be kept away from
a glaring light. When testing them
turn down the gas.—Success, ..

e Daley Barns. . ™ 2
The Maryland Agricultural Etperi
ment Station received an appropria
tion of SSOOO in 1907 for the purpose
of constructing a new dairy barn. Ma
terial was high and labor gcarce, and |
the problem of building a modern‘
dairy barn for experimental purposes
with that amount of money was
solved in the following manner:
A small movable sawmill was se«
cured, and most of the required lum
ber sawed from the college farm
forces, which consists of five acres of |
oak, pine and poplar trees, |
Gravel for the concrete was ob
tained from a wsmall stream which
runs through one corner of the farm.
One two-story barn ten by fifty feet
and two single story barns thirty-six
by sixty feet were accordingly con
structed. |
Concrete was used for the walls of
the single story barns, and for the
first story of the large barn. The
floors and space between the barns
are all of cement,
The lumber and slate shingles
from an old dairy barn, which was
torn down, were also utilized in build
ing the new ones,
The object of the three-barn sys
tem is to compare the differences in
their efficiency, sanitation and prac
ticability.
The first single-story barn is an
open barn; that is, having four feet
of open space between the roof caves
and the top of the walls. This barn
may be used for sickly cows as a
fresh air treatment—a guard against
tuberculosis. Muslin curtains may be
used here in cold weather. The King
system of ventilation, with ample
window space for light and muslin
curtain ventilation, installed in the
other two barns.
The open barn has no stallg, but s
provided with a side room into which
three cows may be driven simulta
neously at one entrance, fed and
milked, and let out at another. The
‘other single story barn is eguipped
with thirty stanchions.
The cement mangers slope just
enough to permit water to flow from
a hydrant at one end to a drain at
the other. Cows may thus be wat
ered on cold days without being ex
posed to severe weather, and the wat
er may be drawn off before becoming
stale. Removable sheet iron parti
tions are inserted in the mangers at
regular intervals to separate a space
for each cow during feeding time,
The two-story barn containsg the
same kind of stalls as the other; also
stalls for calves and box stalls for
‘bulls and cows during sickness or
confinement. It has a cooling room
and bath room on the first floor, and
rooms for grain and hay on the sec
ond, The cooling room is located on
the side next to the small barns and
is easily accessible from all three.
Three silos are In process of con
struction, Various crops will be
used for ensilage and soiling in our
experimental work.
We hope to secure some interesting
data from the results thus obtained
in connection with the use of the
three different styles of dairy barns.

cultural College Farm.

Buff Gown.
As a rival of white this season for
handsome evening gowns there is a
pale shade of buff which is exceed
ingly attractive. It comes in chiffon
cloth, satin and gauzes.
Misses’ Guimpe,
Guimpe dresses are so general for
young girls that pretty guimpes are
always needed. This one is novel and
attractive, yet quite simple and al
lows variations of several sorts. In
the illustration it is made of lawn,
with embroidered net applied to form
a yoke and front portion and with
mousquetaire sleeves, but the lace
could be applied to make a yoke only
if preferred, and either plain or mous
quetaire sleeves can be cut off in
three-quarter length. All-over lace,
tucked, fancy and plain nets, lingerie
material, chiffon, thin silk and every
thing of the sort is appropriate for
the facing and sleeves; if liked the
guimpe can be made of one material
throughout. When made with the
facings the foundation or lining can
be cut away beneath to give a trans
parent effect. The mousquetaire
sleeves are the most practical when
arranged over the plain ones, serving
as a lining, for this lining can be cut
from thin transparent material if de
sirable, while it serves as support for
the fulness, but they can, neverthe-
less, be made unlined and the gath
eys simply stayed if better liked.
The guimpe is made with front and
backs. The facings are applied on in
dicated lines, and the high collar
finishes the neck. The plain sleeves
are madé in two portiens, but the
full or mousquetaire sleeves are cut
all in one.
The quantity of material required
for the sixteen-year size is two and

NOISELESS, POWDERLESS GUN FIRES 100 SHOTS A SECOND
Without any sound except the patter of bullets as they made holes
through targets constructed of pine boards, 100 shots a second were dis
charged from a noiseless and powderless gun in the loft: of the Standard
Meter Company’s factory.
At the demonstration, which was made by the inventor of the gun,
Frederick Bangerter, a mechanical engineer, were seweral mechanical ex
perts, who had been especially invited to witness the test.
No one was permitted to inspect the gun, which was completely hidden
by a wooden enclosure constructed around it in the corner of the loft.

DIAGRAM SHOWING THE NEW POWDERLESS GUN AND HOW IT
RIDDLED THREE TARGETS.
Before the demonstration began Mr. Bangerter explained that his in
vention does not require explosives of any kind and that compressed air
has nothing to do with the discharge of the bullets, The mechanism, he
explained, is simple—so simple, in fact, that anyone with a bent for ma
chinery could understand it if once permitted to examine the gun.
Power from a seven-horsepower electric motor supplied the propelling
force which discharged the bullets. This power was transmitted by a belt
which ran from the flywheel of the motor through an opening in the case
ment and over another wheel which was connected with the gun’s
mechanism. e
No sound except the whirl of the wheel came from the gun enclosure
when the power was turned on.
For ten seconds the bullets were fed into the gun. The spectators,
crouching behind a wooden partition that had been erected to protect them
from rebounding shots, saw the target, which was about ten feet square and
sixty feet away, riddled with holes within a second after the rain of steel
began to rattle on the half-inch pine boards. The bullets were three
eighths of an inch in diameter.—Boston Post. §
Book For Manifolding.
Those who are compelled to make

of the opinion that it is possessed of

right way, so that an imperfect copy
is often the result.
A new process has been brought
out receatly which makes such mis
takes less liable to happen and makes
the handling of the carhon paper
much easier. The innovation con
sists ofs making a paper of such a
quality that one side may be written
on for the purpose of making a rec
ord, while the other side has a coat
ing of the carbon composition for
making the duplicate on another
sheet. As the book is bound a plain
sheet of paper is slipped between two
of these combination sheets, and the
act of making a cop; is almost auto
matic.—Washington Star.
