Ko. 18--04 If to be a specialty farmer means that a man must confine all his ef­ forts to one branch of agr.'culture, such as raising nothing bu» wheat, corn, oats, potatoes, hogs, horses, sheep, cattle, or any other particu­ lar tgiing, then the less specialty farming we have the better. Our brethren in the South tried specialty farming, the specialtr being cotton, and it proved a curse to tnem, npt only as individual farmers, bat as a people. But special farming don't mean anything of the kind; if it does £ have never seen a modern specialty farmer, nor have I ever read a line advocating such methods from the most enthusiastic specialist. I be­ lieve I voice the sentiments of all specialists when I construe it to mean a system, a special system, or, In other words, a spccial rotation or combination. Thus a man may have one or more crops. All his energies »nd efforts are centered on that crop, it is the primary object This crop may be notatoes. He may and does raise clorer, wheat, and corn, yet he raises them only that they may be the means of holding or increasing the fertilty of his soil and stimulat­ ing it to its best efforts to produce potatoes. While he ma? raise other crops, they are only the means through which tie expect* to gain certain ends in view. ; Our specialty is butter, yet we raise wheat because it is the best way to get our ground back to clover for hay and to increase the fertility of our land. We raise corn because it is the foundation of dairy feed We raise potatoes becaus? they brine the"money with which to buy bran and linseed meaL We keep a few 1 hogs and a good many chickens to j eat our skim milk; yet all our efforts are to make all the butter we can. Everything grown by this system of rotation, excepting hogs and I chickens, goes into the mouths of Jour cows They are our machines for converting our farm products 1 into cash. Butter is our money crop and our specialty. So a man mighty and 1 think every farmer should, make some branch of agriculture a specialty. I believe the man that will take up some spe­ cial system of farming or slock rais­ ing and study his business and fol­ low it intelligently, Is the man who will succeed. It is'an admitted fact that there is no money in general farming to-day, yet we see men and read statements daily of men who are making money by special farming, not by growing one thing, but some special system.--Mercantile Ex­ change. " Oats for Horses. f Experience has proven that as'- a jrain rood for horses few feeds are equal or superior to oats, says the American Agriculturist Many farm­ ers and teamsters, however, by ex­ perimenting, have decided Uion a combination of feeds that, in their Judgment, makes a ration superior to anything else obtainable. Some use a mixture of ground corn and wheat bran. Others feed the corn soaked with a sprinkling'of chopped stuff, while others get more value from cut hay dampened and sprink­ led with ground feed. For those who are satisfied with a standard food and one that careless teamsters and stable men will not be liable t J in­ jure horses with by overfeeding, oats will prove more satisfactory. When American corn is worth less than a cent a pound, and oats sell for over a cent and a quarter per pound, the feeding value is no doubt in favor of corn, but corn being very heating, great care must needs be exercised in dealing it out In fact come horses are made sick by a few rations of maize. Constant feeding for two or three months deranges the system, requiring a complete change of diet, iud often necessitates the calling in of. a veterinary surgeon. The thick hAl covering the oat kernel pre­ vents fast eating, consequently more saliva is formed; which aids digestion, yet some horses eat so vig­ orously that many of the kernels are swallowed whole. When this fact is discovered, either have the grain ground and fed dry or place several stones two inches in diameter in the feed box. These will prevent the grabbing of a full mouthful of grain it once, and thus cause twice the time to be spent in eating a given quantity. ^ Sowing Clover "Seed on Know. When the wind is still and snow lies evenly distributed over the Held is the best possible time to sow clover seed. Any inequalities in seeding can then be easily seen and guarded against There in no dan­ ger that the seed will be washed away as the snow melts, for long be­ fore that can occur the seed will have settled thropgh the snow to the ground. The darkness of the seed as compared with snow retains in it more of the sun's beat and if the seed be sown in the morning, with a clear sun shining through the day, not a clover seed can be seen on the snow at noon. As the seed settles below the surface it leaves a hole where it is below the sweep of cold winds, and the sunshine his even greater power in warming it than be­ fore. The melting of the snow washes a little soil over the seed, helpinir it to root better after it has germinated. • I MnleUac aad fratt Bipcala^. Prof. L. H. Bailey of the Cornell Experiment Station has made experi­ ments in delaying the blossoming and ripening of fruits by mulching the ground when frozen in winter. His conclusion are that nothing is gained by it except with plants like the strawberry, which can be entirely covered by the mulch. Trees and sbrubs which extended beyond the mulch covering budded, blossomed and rippened fruit as early as those not mulched at all. It is the condi­ tion of the outside air, not of the root that hastens or retards blossom­ ing in spring. A branch of a tree f WTM1 mrnnj • IffwrWfc - .3# bsfoi* What Farmer* Owe to Xatf'av. The American farmers wh6 first settled this country learned much from Indian cultivators of the sdii There was no corn arrown in Europe until it had been Introduced from America. The Indians had several varieties, including pop corn and sweet corn. They had also some ex­ cellent peas and beans, and our best modern varieties were improvements on the stock which the Indians sup­ plied. They had also pumpkins, squashes, and melons. Fish as a fer­ tilizer was an Indian discovery. The flsh too fat and oily for food were used as a manure, dropping a fish in a hole dug in the ground, covering it with a little earth, and planting the corn over it We make better fish fertilizer now than this, getting rid of the oil, which has little manurlal value, but the idea of using lish as a manure had never occurred to Eu­ ropean farmers until they found it practiced here. « Getting Rid of Rats. An Ohio farmer, writing to the American Agriculturist says: On the barn floor I placed a 31>-gallon kettle tilled half full of rye. A plank six feet long led from the floor to the top of the kettle. The rye was left in the kettle for about a fortnight until the rats had become thoroughly familiar with the kettle and were making it the headquarters for their nightly reyels, with seeming confi­ dence that no harm was intended, when, very treacherously, one even­ ing, water was substituted for the grain, and a half-inch of chaff from the barn floor concealed the water. The result was that twenty-one drowned rats were forked out the first morning and sixty-two within a week, and after that no rats were seen far a year. no Substitute for Royal Baking Powder, is Absolutely Pure.

PLAN to raise a few potatoes the coming season. When the conditions are favorable for growing them in ferfection it is a fairly profitable side is ue--in any event the trii.iog trouble is more than off et by having a variety for one's own table. A WRITER savs the higliest record of butter fat in milk he has seen was 1?.54 per cent, and the lowest 2.70 per cent While one cow produces nearly five times as much butter a* the other, it is reasonable to suppose tbat the expense of keeping was about the same for each cow. No FARMER should be satisfied with less than one pound of butter per day from a cow. He should aim to secure cows that will exceed this amount but a pound should be the minimum product of a cow, and even then there will be but little profit, unless the whey and buttermilk are used for pigs. DOUBLE the value of straw by feed­ ing it in combination with oil meal. This greatly increases its nourishing properties. Fodoer aud hay may also be made to produce more bene­ ficial results by the addition of a little oil meal It will increase the appetite and improve the health and vigor of all classes of stock. THE following is a much-recom­ mended combination for poultry-food: One hundred pounds corn, cracked fine; 100 pounds shorts or middlings; £0 pounds rye: 50 pounds clover hay, cut fine; 10 pounds buckwheat; 1G pounds meat; 5 pounds linseed oil- meal: 10 pounds charcoal, and 25 pounds oyster shell. Total 360 pounds. ALFALFA is an excellent honey plant on which the bees will wotk, and it will rroduce several cuttiugs of hay auring the season. Experi­ ments show that it can be grown in this section, but it requires clean land and freedom from weeds for the first year. Once established, it re­ mains as a permanent crop, and en­ dures drouth well, owing to the great depth to which its roots penetrate into the soil. Turn About la Fair Play. "How are the farmers making out this year?" asked a New-Yorker, a for­ mer resident of Vermont, of a friend frcm the old home. "Poorly," replied the Gteen Moun­ tain man. "You recollect old Bill Thompson? Well, his case illustrates the condition of affairs. It came around the end of the year, and he hadn't made enough to pay his man, so he had to sell a yoke of oxen to get money. "When he turned the proceeds over to the fellow he said: 'Torn, times are hard, farming's played out, and I've got to let you go. "'But,' said Tom. 'you've got more cattle. I'll serve you and look for my wages in cattle.' " 'And when they're all gone what will you do?5 " 'What will I do?' queried Tom. •Why, then you'll work for me, don't you see, and get all your cattle back again.'" THE TRUST AFTER NO-TO-BAC.

Dr. Talmage's First Attempt to Preach Without Notes, and What Happened. Several gentlemen were talking over the recent lecture of Dr. Tal- mageon "Russia and the Czar," In the Kiggs House last night, when Boniface De Witt told an interesting story of the famous preacher's first experience in trying to deliver a ser­ mon without notes. "It was years ago. of course," said Mr. De Witt "and occurred in my old home, Belleville, N. J. Dr. Tal- mage was preaching there, and one week he made up his mind to go into the pulpit tbc next Sunday without notes or memoranda of what he was going to say.

Mr. H. L. Kramer, general manager of the no-to-bac business, was interviewed at his office, 45 Randolph street, and when questioned, promptly said: "No, sir; no-to-bac is not for sale to the tobacco trust. We just refused a half million from other parties for our business; Certainly no-to- bac affects the tobacco business. It will cure over a half million people in 1894, at an average saving of $50 wnieh each would otherwise expend for to­ bacco, amounting in round figures to $25,000,000. Of course tobacco manu­ facturers and dealers' loss is the gain of the party taking no-to-bac. Does no- to-bac benefit physically? Yes, sir. The majority of our patients re-' port an immediate gain in flesh, and their nicotine saturated systems :aw) cleansed and made vigorous. How is no-to-bac sold? Principally through our traveling agents. We employ over a thousand. It is also sold by druggists, wholesale and retail, throughout the United States and Can­ ada. How are patients assured that no-to-bac will effect a cure in their ca-e? We absolutely guarantee three boxes, costing $2.50, to cure any case. Failure to cure means the money back, bf course there are failures, but they are few, and we can better afford to have the good will of an occasional failure than his money. We publish a little book called 'Don't Tobacco Spit ,,or Smoke Your Life Away,' that tells all about no-to-bac, which will be mailed free to any one desiring it by addressing the Sterling Remedy Co., 45r49 Randolph street, Chicago."
