HAVE A FEED BOX.
Easy to Make and No Barn Should
Be Without One—Keeps the
Mice Away.
Every farmer should have an ar
rangement for keeping feed in his
stables. Large bins are not desirable
since they take up too much room, if
several kinds of food are kept. Here
with is pictured a very convenient feed
box which may be mane any size to
suit conditions. Two, three or four
compartments may be made, says the
Orange Judd Farmer. Set the box on
legs. This has the double advantage of
making it more convenient and also
keeping mice and rats from gnawing
holes in the bottom. A lid should be
provided, then if an animal gets loose
in the night he will not be able to
"help himself” and develop a case of
acute indigestion. The expense of
making a box of this character is nom
inal.
A LITTLE HORSE SENSE
Some Plain Words and Suggestions
by One Who Knows Where
of He Speaks.
When a man goes out nowadays to
buy a good horse, he must take along
from $150 to $200. Let's try to have
one to sell, now and then.
It is all right to sell the best geld
ings, when it can be done to good ad
vantage, but don't sell the best mares.
It is like killing the goose that lays
the golden egg; but with the present
scarcity and high prices, many farm
ers have made this very mistake.
Only the choicest nsares should be
used for breeders.
If a colt is found to be very head- !
strong, throw him. Be kind and quiet,
but firm.
Put a good strong halter on him.
Take a strap with a ring in it and
buckle it around the off fore leg just
: below the fetlock joint. Buckle a sur
: oingle around Iris body, fasten one end
! of a rope to it ami pass it through
the ring in the strap.
Take your position on the right side
| of him, bring the rope over his back
from the off side, and pull his foot up
to his body and keep it there. Pull
his head abound to you, press against
his body and repeat the words: “Lie
down!”
When he is down and has given up,
loose the rope, handle him all over,
pet him. and then tell him to get up.
This lesson seldom has to be re
peated. It gives him to understand
that you are his master, and he will
thereafter usually obey every sugges
tion.
Put all the harness in good condi
tion before the spring work comes on.

Unprofitable Hens
Peter Tumbledown told me that h#
could not see why his hens would not
lay. He keeps feed before them all
the time. I went into his hen house
to see what kind of feed he gave. It
was bran mixed with cold water, and
it was frozen solid. It had to stay
by them, for it was so hard they could
not eat it. People might as well keep
mongrel hens if they are going to give
mongrel care.—Farm Journal.
Brooder Houses.
Most brooder houses are too low.
They have so little air space that the
air is foul and the chicks do not
thrive. A reader writes to the Farm
and Home that she lost 800 chicks in
one of these low houses built accord
ing to the plans of a well-known
brooder manufacturer. Be sure to get
enough head room so you ean stand
erect in any part of the house.
Small Farm for Chickens.
A man who lives on a four-acre farm
adjoining town is about to sell hia
hogs and keep a few more chickens.
He has a sow which raises him sev
oral pigs every year. I think he has
the right idea and should be go into
the business right he ean make more
than many men do on 1 GO-aere farms.
Regular Attention.
Regular attention to all live stock
and especially to fattening ones Is
very important. With regularity noth
ing is forgotten and nothing is dons
twice over.
Mites doubtless carry cents glotM
diseases from one fowl to the other,
inoculating the birds la taking their
food.
SELF-CLOSING DOOR
Weight. Pulley and Piece of Rope
All That Is Needed to Make Door
Self-Operative.
Many a good horse, or other farm
animal, has been lost because of get
ting loose in the
night and gaining
access to the
grain room or
grain chest. In
side doors will be
left open sometimes even if great care
is taken. Fit them to close automat
ically, and there will be no risk nor
need for care, says the Farm Journal.
The cut shows an easy way to make
a door close of itself. The pulley may
be made of a spool and a bit of wire.
The weight can be the kind used for
window sashes (as shown), or any
other heavy object may be used.
Getting Rid of Quack.
My way of working quack grass in
this vicinity is to plow shallow soon
after harvest, and if very soddy, use a
breaking plow, which leaves the sod
smooth. Then before it freezes, we
cross-plow with a disk plow, which
will leave the sods loose and pulverize.
\,e t-hen take a spring-tooth harrow
and work the ground down smooth and
are ready for a crop in the spring. For
small patches of quack grass, says the
Orange Judd Farmer, we cover with
straw or any litter, watching with care
that any leaves of the plant do not
appear for a year.
Farm Accounts.
It is my experience as to the general
practice of farmers that very few keep
any accounts. I might say that when
accounts are kept they generally com
prise only the wife’s bonnet bills. Just
now 1 am not engaged individually in
farming, but if I wrere I would keep
book record of everything. 1 believe
that a man should keep an account of
every crop grown as well as the gen
eral transactions of the farm. I be
lieve that our systems of farm book
keeping should be very much im
proved. I would suggest a rendering
of a regular expense account and keep
ing a record of all receipt*.
THE PROFITABLE BEE
»ome Paragraphic Suggestions Which
Are Specially Pertinent at
This Time.
The honey bee :s a benefactor to our
race. Bee culture requires no outlay
tor land upon which to raise crops for
no plant has as jet been discovered
that is profitable to grow for honey
alone.
The bee takes nothing from the fer
tility of the soil ’out gives it one of the
greatest fertilizers known—the clovers
—which would become extinct were it
not for the bee's work in fertilizing the
bloom.
With a favorable location, and a
natural ability and inclination for the
business, there is no question about
beekeeping being one of the most prof
itable pursuits.
Some folks who have kept bees did
not succeed on account of the moth
worm. But worms very tarely, if ever,
destroy a colony of bees in normal con
dition.
A colony harboring a defective
queen, or no queen at ail, will sooner
or later succumb to the awful enemy,
unless helped by ihe apiarist.
A colony of bejs will no more thrive
without a queen. Ilian will plants with
out sunshine or moisture.
Bees will sometimes ball their own
queen and kill her. either because
there is something wrong with her, or
for the reason that she has been han
dled and thus i equired a strange
scent.
Beginners should start with one or
two colonies and 'ncrease as they learn
how to handle and profit by them.
Bee culture requires no great outlay
of strength at any time, but to be sue

WET-LAND HIVE STAND.
Arrangement by Which the Hives
Can Be Placed at Any Eleva
tion Above a Flood.
In answer to the question asked by a
i correspondent as to the care of hives
i on low lands, subject to Hoods, writes
an Iowa correspondent: I would sug
gest the plan shown in the accompany
ing drawing. When the floods ap
proaches, send the negroes, who he
tsays, are afarid oi- the bees, to the
windlass and wind up the hives to an
elevation above the langer-line, and
replace pin H to hold the hives in an
elevated position until after the abate

he bees go on a; it nothing had oc

In commenting on the contrivance,
the editor of Gleanings in Bee Culture
says: The elevator hive-stand is all
right, but altogether too expensive for
the purpose. Thete is not enough
profit in bee-keeping to have cog
wheels. pulleys an i ropes, and we must
reduce everything down to the sim

A Live
Wire
Every nerve is a live wire
connecting some part of the
body with the brain. They are
so numerous that if you pene
trate llie skin with the point of
a needle you will touch a nerve
and receive a shock—pain it is
called. Aches and pains come
from a pressure, strain or in
jury to a nerve ; the more prom
inent the nerve the greater the
pain. When the pain comes
from a large nerve it is called
Neuralgia
whether it be the facial nerves,
or the heart, stomach, sciatic
or other prominent nerve
branch. To stop pain, then,
you must relieve the strain or
pressure upon the nerves.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills do
this.
“I suffered Intense pain. caused by
neuralgia. 1 doctored and used vari
ous medicines without getting relief
until I began taking I>r. Miles'
Anti-Pain Pills. They did me mom
good titan all the medicines I ever
used. They m ver fail to cure my
headaches, and their use never-leaves
any bad after-effects.”
