Salt With Vegetables.
A good vegetable rule is salt with
vegetables that are green, no salt
in those containing starch or grown
underground. Most vegetables are
put on in boiling water, though some
housewives make exceptions to this
rule.

1 horse seldom live in the same barn.
Orchards In full bearing may be
seeded to grass and pastured with
sheep.
! The dairy cow is worth more than
i the beef steer whatever way you look
at her.
Cows do not enjoy being milked by
one whose finger nails are long and
; sharp.
Whenever you discover a sheep
limping along, catch him and examine
his feet for rot.
The old spring houses that are found
i on many farms tell of the early ex
periences In dairying.
Cantaloupes, watermelons and citron
can only be profitably grown in a
deep mellow loam soil.
By sowing a pinch of lettuce seed
every ten days there will always be
tender salad on the table.
The winter dairyman is the coming
man, bdt he cannot afford to milk in a
cold, dirty stable or barn.
Train the colt before he Is six
months old and you can control his
disposition when he Is older.
Breeding ewes should not be too
fat; see that they are In a strong,
healthy and vigorous condition.
Pick out the breed you like best
and stick to it; study up everything
you can about that particular breed.
One of the difiicult problems for the
poultryman to solve Is how to easily
provide pure, fresh water for his
fowls.
Few dairymen realize the tremen
dous significance of the cream trade
that has been developed during the
past few years
If you want to raise a good crop of
mice and insects that will damage the
orchard trees, let the weeds and grass
11© thick on the ground.
Watch weak places in the fences.
Makes one feel mean and it is provok
ing besides to have cows break Into
the field of a neighbor.
The cows should be milked in the
barn during the summer, but the
bam should be kept Just as cliean
as It is in the winter time.
Keep the cultivator busy. Don’t let
the weeds get ahead of you. Remem
ber that they use the plant food that
should go Into your crops.
Be sure that you furnish proper
quarters for the farrowing sow. You
can’t afford to lose a single one of the
little “squealers” this season.
Never give drugs to a horse any
more than you would to a baby un
less he is downright sick. Shutting
off his feed will cure all minor ills.
No cow can do her best or even
keep up a normal flow of milk when
compelled to stand out in the hot mid
day sun of August and fight the
flies.
1 One of the most important things
in running a dairy successfully Is
brains. Brains must be applied by
every branch of work If the best profit
Is to follow.
* The weak and wabbly fence la an in
vitation to the cattle to try the other
' side and it always works a hard
ship, especially so during the busy sea
son of the year.
, No farm should be without some
sheep; they clean up the weeds, make
, fine fertilizers and wool, and produce
lambs, all of which may be turned In
to a good profit.
Diversified farming Is adapted to
; the man who does intensified think
i ! ing. The intensive thinker is always
| a success as a farmer or any other oc
i cupatlon where talents lead him.
| The pig that has been supplied
! with an abundance of pasture and a
I small grain ration during the sum-
I mer should weigh from 150 to 175
j pounds by the latter part of Septem
ber.
Afton farm, at Yardly, Pa., mar
kets about 20,000 green ducks annu
| ally. The ducks are dressed, dry
I picked and shipped to market In bar
; rels at ten weeks old. The chicken
i plant is larger than the duck farm.
Early maturing pullets should be
| extra well fed; they are making
i growth as well as eggs, so don’t stint
| them, and if they don’t lay quite as
i soon as you think they should, re-
I member that the food eaten Is mak
| Jng flesh and bone, and that they will
! he better size than If they are to be
I pj;ecclou3.
Duck eggs are in demand by con
; fectloners, as they import a glaze to
their Icing, which cannot be had with
| hen’s eggs. For making plum pud
i ding, duck eggs are more economical
than those of fowls, being both larger
in size and richer.
Too many chicks in one yard, coop
or brooder is disastrous. Older chicks
will trample on and crowd out young
er ones, and the ones last hatched
stand small show for feed, growth or
even life. It is best to separate
broods widely over the orchard.
In grading up the chickens cull all
but the most vigorous.
Mutton breed lambs should receive
grain as early as possible.
Women are better fitted by nature
than men for poultry keeping.
Not enough attention has been giv
en to the character of seed corn.
The best fertilizer for asparagus
is rotted manure from grain-fed
horses.
The farm Is the Ideal place for
growing all kinds of poultry for meat
and eggs.
Feed your fowls a sufficient amount
of animal food, plenty of vegetables
and bulky foods.
Young trees must be carefully cul
tlvated, kept clear of weeds and tbs
soil loose and mellow.
To dispose of a crop at satisfactory
prices is often a mope difficult prob
lem than to produce It
A horse thhL Is too straight In his
posturetjars himself and gets all the
concussions of the road.
The thermometer must be used as
regularly In the dairy during the sum
mer as during the winter.
It weakens the horses to keep them
shut up In a close stable during the
hot nights. Turn them out.
If a soil lacks water some form of
fertilizers are a positive detriment If
they are present in abundance.
It is common sense that a mature
sow will produce larger and more
perfect pigs than a very young one.
Butter made In a sanitary dairy is
always easier to keep than that
which Is made under poor condi
tions.
Don’t let the buck run with the
does when his breeding season Is
over, but confine him In a pen by
himself.
Dairy-bred stock Is scarce, and It
will take many years to apply the
rapidly Increasing demand for dairy
bred cattle.
Beans can be turned Into cash the
quickest of any farm crop, as It Is
possible to sell them in ninety days
from planting.
Hogs will not thrive on sour and de
composed food any more than men
will. See that they get fresh, clean
water to drink.
Cabbage is one of the easiest vege
tables to start from seed and to trans
plant and to be made to grow In the
garden or field.
An Incubator will not run Itself any
more than an automobile will. A hu
man brain must stand back of the
best machine Invented.
Women as a rule are more progress
ive and quicker to seize a new idea
and put it into practice in the poultry
yard than the sterner sex.
Plenty of coal ashes where the fowls
can roll and scratch in them will settle
the lice question, without the use of
powder or liquid lice exterminators.
The fall fresh cow is the preferable
cow and if you have not come to re
alize this, just try It this year and see
if you will not be readily converted.
Sunshine Is necessary in the milk
house in the winter time, but Just
now all the shade that can be found
will be acceptable. Trees and vines
help.
The condition and the appearance
of the creamery should be the very
best for this will have an Influence
on getting favorable market for the
butter.
Spring Is the natural time for young
animals to be born and they do better,
all other things being equal, when
they are ushered mto this world at
that time of year.
It pays to supply the fowls, espe
cially growing ones, with charcoal,
ground bone, either fresh or dry; oys
ter and clam shells, and a continual
supply of best grit.
A good way to avoid the credit sys
tem Is to grow the living at home. It
Is usually possible to grow the most
expensive, yet the most necessary, ar
ticles of food on the farm.
At our present rate of deforestation
■ fuel and fencing materials will be
very scarce within a few years. Plant
waste lands in forest trees to supply
the timber required on the farm.
i Arrange to save seed of the best
! varieties of potatoes, pumpkins,,
i squashes and other garden products
for next season's planting. Then you
will be sure of plenty of good seed.
i Many fail with sheep because they
. fall to keep the breeds that are best
i adapted to their farms and do not
raise the kind that the market de
mands and is ready to pay the highest
price for.
1—
L Save the droppings from the poul
. try house. Fertilizer of equal value,
i if bought on the market, will cost you
S3O or more a ton. For the easier
gathering and handling of this ferti
lizer, a platform of boards should be
■ placed under the roosts. This plat
• form should be scraped clean at least
’ twice a week.
i Young calves need whole milk for
the first few days. The calf should
always have the first or colostrum
> milk of the cow and be allowed to
; nurse the cow until the eighth or
ninth milking, when the milk is suit
i able for human food. Feed often,
■ with small amounts, to avoid over
■ feeding. Teach the calf to drink and
1 feed whole milk for at least three
> weeks, changing to a sklm-mllk diet
gradually.
Most farme-s raise ctilckens by the
i natural process, and that is all right
so long as you do not care to raise
more than, say, 100 chickens; but
when you get up Into large numbers
■ Incubators are necessary.
Don't allow hogs to *>e crowded in
i their sleeping qua r teiv. Overcrowd
i ing results in coughs, Jung fever and
quite frequently. In the smaller, or
weaker, ones becoming smothered

lifters, hut if allowed to "root hog or
die” the lifting powei Is not great.

Cement Talk No. 2
Portland Cement does
not come from Portland,
Maine, or Portland, Ore
gon, and it was not first
made at either of these
placevS. It is called Portland
I because it was given this name |
; by the Englishman who first
1 made it. He called it Portland
I because he thought it resembled cer- |
| tain natural deposits on the Isle of Port
land in England. Portland Cement is
the fine powder produced by pulver
izing the clinker resulting from the
burning together of various materials of prop
er chemical composition. In the case of
Universal Portland Cement, these raw mater
ials arc blast furnace slag and pure limestone.
There are many brands of Portland Cement
on the market, produced by different manu
facturers. Universale one of the best known
and highest grade Portland Cements. You
i can always tell it by the name Universal and
| the blue trade mark printed on each sack.
! Forty million sacks of Universal are made and
used yearly in this country If you have any
concrete work to do, you will make no mistake
by using Universal Portland Cement. Universai

Money ■
|| By Dr. Frank Crane j.^
Since the dawn of preaching we
preachers have been threatening rich
men with our right fist—and extend- ,
Ing to them our left palm. It Is hard
ly to be wondered at that we find dlf
| ficulty In being taken seriously.
And our advice has been so confus- a
! Ing that we have not had much effect. “
| For now we exhort the youth to all
j the virtues, giving as an inducement
| the assurance that thus they will be
1 enabled to get on; and now again we
I turn to those that have gotten on and
j warn them of the danger of riches. It
might as well be asked. If rlehes be
I dangerous, why acquire them; and If
| virtues lead to riches, are they really
| worth cultivating?
It may be well, therefore, to set
down a few common sense facts in re
riches and the relation of the same to
the moral values.
In the first place, money Is simply
the token or sign of our common hum- <
an wants. It means power, power
over others, power to make our per
sonality felt. No wonder we want It.
Again It means liberty. Poverty is
a curse. It ties the hands. It binds •
the mind. It narrows the soul. One
who has to sweat ten hours a day for
bread has no time nor strength left „
to develop the higher part of himself, s
Money means also a full life. We J
can gratify our cravings, whether they g
be for beer or art. for Paris gowns or t
Wagner music. With money we have
a chance to grow; without it we are
stunted.
Money, therefore, Is simply concen
trated —we might say canned —human
value.
It naturally follows that It Is good
or bad, never of Itself, but only as giv- A
Ing opportunity to its possessor. Here,
then, we have the moral gist of the
whole matter: money Is simply—op- /
portunlty.
It unlocks the door and bids the
cramped and chafing passion go and s
do its will. It liberates desire. Hence
It simply emphasizes a man. If he Is I
good he can now be better, having c
more scope; If bad he can, and prob
ably will, be worse. If Idle and use
less, he becomes a living fountain of 1
idleness and uselessness, poisoning j
others.
So, money Is like any other gift; as
beauty, which adds power to the per
son; or genius, which multiplies the
efficiency of the mind and hand; or
position, for kinship magnifies a com- q
mon man to heroic proportions. In his
Influence on other men. 1
Now, the sole relation of morals to
power of any kind Is this: that the
moral sense adds to power—responsi- *
blllty. /
The root of any genuine moral feel
ing Is altruism. Given any desire. It
becomes moral as It takes a direction
toward the welfare of other people: y
It Is Immoral exactly In proportion as
It disregards others and looks only to 1
self. -j
Wicked people, therefore, are those
who live, think, and do for self alone;
and that whether poor or rich. Who- I
ever says, “I would like to be rich,
for I could do so much good with my
money,” should examine himself and J
ask what good he Is do'ng with the
little he has. It’s all a matter of re
lation. If one is not helpful and lib
eral on S4O a month, he would not be
so on $4,000 a month.
In the ultimate realm of morals
there are no commandments; there is
only one test —do I live for myself or v
for others; am I altruistic or egocen v
trie.
The dawdling smart set. flitting f
from bridge to matinee, from theater
to bedizened restaurant, from the club
to the horse race, are wicked; but no
wickeder than the better poor who
want to lead such a life, and who
curse their lot because their selfish- {
ness Is bound and chained.
To the real man, therefore, riches v
means nothing at all. as to his char- j (
acter; It simply means an opening to e
give vent to his character. And a a
clear-eyed soul, that sees and realizes d
what responsibility means. Is never
eager for power and opportunity. It Is
easier to be good In moderate means u
than in riches for the principal reason
that it Is easier to bear a small than E
a great load of responsibility. “It Is 0
hard for a rich man to enter the king- a
dom of heaven,” Just because a rich f
man to be moral must be great And. $
unfortunately, great souls are scarce y
among great fortunes.
The greatness of Jesus was not In
his wisdom, magnetism, nor ethical p
perception, but In the fact that he was n
utterly altruistic; that is, he used all c
his powers not to advance himself but
to help others. His tormentors un
wittingly told the truth, and stated un j
knowingly his very secret, when, as he
hung on the croes, they wagged their a
heads at him and cried; c
“He saved others; himself he can t
not save!” j
Forgiveness.
‘There Is forgiveness with thee that
thou nwyost be feared.” —Psa. 130:4 Q
“Their sins and Iniquities will I re a
member no more.” —Heb. 10:17.
The book is full of the doctrine of
forgiveness. As for God, “He delight j
eth in mercy.”—Mich. 7:18. In order j
to develop in man hope and help and t
health God floods the sacred book g
with promises of pardon. As a man d
reviews his life or any part of It he Is s
filled with regret and anxiety which e
sometimes and often turn Into des- fl
pair. But a golden word in God's s
Word arrests his attention and shines
like a brilliant star in the midst of his “
darkness; Forgiveness. Turning page r
after page of the Divine revelation he
I finds it —in the foreglearns of ritual,
in the radiance of prophecy, in the
face and smiles of the Divine Master j t
| —Jesus our Saviour. Even his cross i y
Is changed into a star like the “star of | j
I Bethlehem.” And as we gaze upon It, i
10, It becomes a “Sun of Righteous ;
; ness.” In that divine light we who i
| follow Christ may walk day after day. I 1
our lives filled with earnestness, fldel- I
1 Ity, humility, gentleness. Christian 1
courtesy, sweetness and light

Hay Fever.
The time of the year approaches
when many proud and haughty Indi
viduals will lord It over their friends
and relatives.
The proud and haughty ones are hay
feverites.
Hay fever Is the most aggravated
form of class distinction In America.
It Is argued that like causes produce
like effects. If two men should sit
Sown by a railway and allow their legs
(o rest upon the track and a train
tame along, the natural assumption
would be that they would lose their
legs. That would be a certainty. How
ever, if the train rolled over the men
and cut off the legs of one while It
did not harm the other, that would be
hay fever.
The rain falls upon the Just and the
unjust, but the rain Is not hay fever.
Two women shall be grinding at the
mill, one will have hay fever and the
other will not. Getting hay fever is
as incomprehensible to the un-hay
fevered mind as It would be for half a
dozen folks to hold their heads under
water and only one of them be
drowned.
A thousand persons will Inhale the
pollen of the goldenrod, the ragweed,
or whatever the theory Is —and but
one of them will be distinguished by
the sneezifled aura of hay fever.
Dr. Woads Hutchinson and William
Hard write learnedly of hay fever,
but we have covered the ground in the
above remarks. Hay fever can be
cured at home, hut an amputation of
the affected member Is painful and ex
pensive.
The Difference.
“When we were’married,” said the
first woman, “we went to a quaint,
quiet little country boarding house,
and remained there for—”
“When we wer married,” broke in
the second woman, whose one regret
In life seemed to be that she had only
ten fingers to stick rings on. “w'e went
to the St. Sklnnus hotel, and Mr.
Skadsgott paid a thousand dollars a
day for our apartments alone, and he
spent a hundred dollars a day for flow
ers and two hundred dollars on our
first dinner, and altogether it cost him
something like fifty thou —”
“But,” interrupted the first woman,
“I was talking about a honeymoon,
not a moneymoon.”
An Optimist.
“No, my man, I cannot give you any
thing. Besides, you might be In
worse luck than to have lost yout
logs.”
“You’re right, boss. I might have
me legs, an' be fool enough to wear
pants like yours.”
Advocates Abstinence.
I could wish to make the advocates
of abstinence realize that their duty
is but half discharged bv their per
sonal abstinence from drink. I would
have them vote as they feel, and act
as they will have voted. —Horace
Greeley.

The Bridegroom's Portion.
Miss Elsie Qentsch, who teaches
Sunday school, had been reading to
1 her class from the gospel of Matthew,
l and was examining a promising boy,
r newcomer, anent the subject matter.
“There were ten virgins,” said the
young man, “five tvlse ones and five
foolish ones, and the five wise ones
i filled their lamps and the five foolish
ones wasn’t In no hurry. And at
midnight came the bridegroom. So
’ the five foolish ones went across the
r street to buy oil and got locked out.”
“Very good,” said the teacher.
’ “And what did the bridegroom do?”
i “Why,” said the good little student,
"he married the five wise ones.” —

PAINFULFINGER NAILS CURED
"I have suffered from the same
r trouble (painful finger nails) at differ
ent periods of my life. The first time
■ of its occurrence, perhaps twenty-five
c years ago, after trying home remedies
c without getting helped, I asked my
doctor to prescribe for me, but It was
not for a year or more that my nails
, and fingers were well. The inflamma
tion and suppuration began at the base
s of the finger nail. Sometimes it was
so painful that I had to use a poultice
to Induce suppuration. After the pus
' was discharged the swelling would go
down until the next period of Inflam
mation, possibly not more than a week
1 or two afterwards. These frequent in
, (laminations resulted In the loss of the
nail.
“Perhaps ten years later, I began
s again to suffer from the same trouble,
i Again I tried various remedies, among
them a prescription from a doctor of
a friend of mine, who had suffered
from a like trouble This seemed to
i help somewhat for a time, but It was
not a permanent cure; next, tried a
j prescription from my own doctor, but
this was so irritating to the sensitive,
r diseased skin that I could not use it.
I began to use Cutlcura Soap and
1 Ointment. I had used the Cutlcura
Ointment previously on my children’s
> scalps with good effect I did not use
t the Soap exclusively, but I rubbed the
i Cutlcura Ointment Into the base of the
i nail every night thoroughly, and aa
i often beside as I could. I had not used
• It but a few weeks before my nails
were better, and In a short time they
i were apparently well. There was
t no more suppuration, nor Inflamtna
s tlon, the nails grew out clean again.
One box of Cutlcura Ointment was all
j that I used In effecting a cure.
(Signed) Mrs. I. J. Horton, Katonab,
5 N. Y„ Apr. 13, 1910. On Sept. 21. Mrs.
i Horton wrote: “I have had no further
i return of the trouble with my finger
- nails.” Although Cutlcura Soap and
i Ointment are sold everywhere, a sam
r pie of each, with 32-page book, will be

cura,” Dept. 15 L, Boston.

Beware of the man who does not
look you clearly in the eye. He haa
possibilities of evil In his nature.
There are eyes which are luminous,
others which seem to be veiled be
hind a curtain.
Men and women of the world are
accustomed to judge human nature by
the expression of the eye. Many peo
ple read character by the eyes, and
can thus distinguish the false from the
loyal, the frank from the deceitful, the
hard from the tender, the energetic
from the indolent, the sympathetic
from the indifferent.
