OATS AND HOW TO GROW THEM.
I should bo loHt without a good crop
of oats; they como In ho handy for
all kinds, of stock, from hens up to
horses.
It Ih not vory much trouhle to got
a kooI crop of ouU. All we nnd to
do Ih to have the ground In koi) con
dition, got ut In proper souson, umo
good seed and wait.
A good many times wo aro In too
blK a hurry about getting In our oats;
not too hood, hut too niiich of a hurry
to got through, Ho wo slip over th
work and then wonder wliy wo do not
got good returns,
!oiu Hhould h plowed an early as
poHHlhlo for outs; hut wait till It la
dry enough ho that It will not hako
and bo lumpy; lumpy land Ih spoiled
land. '
Then harrow thoroughly, over and
over again, till thoro la a good, aoft
luollow soed-hed. Wo ofton miss It
hy slighting Oils part of tho work.
Uo not loavo any thing to hn dnno hy
tho drill. It sometimes happenH that
when wo aro In a hurry wo think wo
will not hnrrow very well, "tho drill
will fliilHh It." Not lewd farming.
If you havo aoino nice, fine, dry hen
manure, Rift It and row It throiiKh tho
fortlttxor attachment of your drill. It
Ih tho best fertilizer for this purpoao
that I know of. It you havo none, try
a Hmall amount of commercial fertil
izer, not moro than ISO to 200 poundH
to tho aero. You will got Rood ro
aulta from "thin. Then roll tho land
and wait till harvcHt conx-H.
Th Onion Maggot.
Homo onion growers claim that car
hollo arid emulHlon often given BittlM
factory results In combating tho onion
nuiKKot. DIhhoIvo ono ousid .hard
Houp or ono quart aoft soap In a gallon
of boiling water; add ono pint of crudo
carbolic acid, and emulsify by agita
tion. Ono part omultiion I lined to 30
parta of water applied at tho rot.
' THE POULTRY YARD.
If you havo a sheltered placn. not
only to aet tho bona hut to roar tho
young, Mnrch batches will bo pro
fitable, riarrela laid on their aldea
under a ahed or Homo outhulldlnp,
makes Ideal nests at this time of tho
year.
Do not make tho common error of
netting bona In tho regular laying
houses, and never ho guilty of shut
ting up a hen on tho neat. Tho barrel
method Ih far better, and If a Hmall
lath run la built In front of tho neat,
tho hen can get off and on her eggs
aa aho deoma beat.
Some hena alt too cloaoly to tho
nest, and othera not clono enough.
Hut It la not In tho province of man
to know JiiHt bow long biddy Hhould
romoln on or off her egga. Her Judg
ment la bent In mich matters.
It Ih not advlHablo at this time of
tho yoar to place more than cloven
egga under a hen, as Uioho on tho
outer odgo are apt to become chilled.
Do not disturb her while Mho la
hatching; and leave tho young In tho
neat for at leaHt twenty-four boura.
Tho youngntera need tho warmth
moro than they do food.
For tho flrat two weeka It la beat
to keep tho hon and her young In a
largo houHo or coop, ho that they can
exorclao and at tho samo time, bo pro

Umo they can bo allowed outdoora

If It la Intended to purcbaao egga

there will bo no dUappolntment In
not getting tho eggs when wanted.
For strong fertility, try alternating
main birds In tho pens. Havo either
two nuileH for each pen or threo males
for two pena, UHlng only ono male at
a time In a pen, and changing about
twleo a week.
As a rulo the eggs from hens that

Robbery at Clackamas.
The home of, D. M.' Williams at
Clackamas was entered Friday night
by a maaked man, who, at the point of
a revolver, bold up Williams and wife,
robbed them of 15 In money and made
bis escape on their horse. The de
scription la vague and there la little
hope of tracing tho highwayman. He
knocked at tho house door, which was
oponed by Mrs. Williams, and sho was
confronted by the burglar. She call
ed her husband, and ho too was held
up and robbed. The horse waa found
on tho county road near Mllwauklo
Saturday morning, having been turn
ed loose by the robber.
Portland police captured the man
who held up Mr. Williams and his
family at Clackamas Station luHt Fri
day night, ills namo la James Funk
haiiHcr and ho baa confoHacd bla
crlmo. Funkhauser and a companion
were rounded up Saturday night near
Fulton while on a harness stealing
expedition, and Funkhauser was sus
pected of tho Clackamas holdup, but
atoutly denied any connection with
tho crlmo. HIh clothes showed that
ho hnd been riding a horso and Mr.
and Mm, Williams and their daughter
wero sent for and Identified the man.
About one month ago Funkhauser ne
gotiated with Wllllama for the pur
chase of a horse, paying $5 to bind
tho bargain and taking tho animal for
a few days on trial, but be never came
back, and neither did the horse. Un
der a warm sweating procena Funk
hauser admitted that bo held up and
robbed the Williams family. Other
crimes aro attributed to him. Funk
hauser was brought hero Tuesday and
lodged In tho County Jail.
CATARRH IS CURABLE.
The Sheepfold.
There la no stock on tho farm that
should bo ao generously fed aa the
lambs.
' A variety of feed la necessary for
tho most prolific growth.
If a lot of fodder Is thrown on the
ground, and tho sheep run over It
onco or twice, they will eat no more
of It ovon though they are suffering
from hunger.
If put In quantities In racks, and
they havo breathed on It for a short
time, they will leavo tho racks and
bleat for food.
Feed thorn little and often, and any
hay that Is left In tho racks Hhould
nil bo cleaned out beforo moro Is put
In.

ways thus." Madam: "No, It was
Successful Experiments In Abating
and Curing thla Disease.
Catarrh la an entirely unnoeersary
disease and Hhould not be tolerated
for a single day now that Hyomel la
ho generally known and has inude ho
many cures In Oregon City an J other
towns.
Modern Rclence has proved the old
theory that catarrh was a blood dis
ease. It Ih a germ trouble and the
remedy la Hyomel, which medicates
tho air you breathe, killing the ca
tarrhal germs.
As thero Is life and health In the
air of tho pine forests, filled with
fragrant and healing balsams, so
thoro Is life and health In breathing
Hyomel.
So sure Is tho prescrlpUon to cure
even the worst cases of catarrh, that

If It doea not do all that la, claimed
