MUSHROOM CULTURE.
An Industry Which Is Attractive A. Well
as Profitable.

An Industry Which Is Attractive a. Well
as Profitable.
1t is mystery why mushrooms are
not more widely appreciated in this
country as an article of food, for it is a
well-known fact that the economic
value of mushroom diet is placed sec
ond to meat alone. We're the people
of Russia and parts of Germany to see
our woods and clearings during the au-
tumn rains, they would feast on the
rich food which in most places here
goes to waste. Indeed, it is the epi-
cures who appreciate this food and are
not slow to pay fancy prices for it in
the market.
During tn e season when mushrooms
can be gathered, people neglect the
butcher to a considerable extent.
Mushrooms, as has been stated by Prof.
Palmer in one of his works, make the
same use of the air we breathe as il
made by animals; when cooked they
resemble no other form of vegetable
food, and in decay their odor in some
caseR cannot be distinguished from pu-
trid meat. Certain it is the parasol-
like growth used for food, and which
springs up in night, is not plant in
any sense. 1t more nearly resembles a
flower, bearing, as it does. the spores
that are analogous to seeds The true
plant which feeds, grows and finally
prepares to flower, is the network of
whitish threads which form what is
commonly known as the spawn" or,
botanically, the mycelium of the mush-
room.
1t is to the garden, or indoor culture
of the common mushroom, agaricus
campestris, that we desire here to call
attention. There is an ease and nov
city about this business which should
make it attractive, not only to all
amateurs for home use, but to COM
mercial gardeners near all large
towns. The profits are large, in COM
parison with the outlay of material
and labor necessary. Fifty to sixty
cents a pound wholesale can be OBJ
tanned without the least difficulty.

be grown in very rich soil, the indis-

Coachers and good Roadsters. .--....... 90G26O
This shows which way the wind is
blowing and it is my purpose las long
as the editor will let me) to keep the
horse growing readers of this paper
posted as to prices in the leading
markets which will be a new feature
for the paper any way.
By good roadsters is meant sound
young horses from four to eight years
old that can pull buggy on the road
a four minute clip. The sales of real
top notchers are not quoted and it
will be enough to say that at one of
the combination sales lact week Sc
head of aged horses and colts brought
an average price of S359.0O. 1t is all
very well to say that we have none Of
this kind to sell, but it is your own
fault that you have not, as for num-
Der of years good horses have been
standing at lola, Humboldt, Carlyle,
Colony, Neosho Falls and nearly
every little town and hamlet i'm this
state. You merely have not taken
advantage of your opportunities and
your chances of breeding Joe Patch
en-, Jno. r. Gentry or a Pansy Me-
GregOr have been lost. But as the
rule at is never too late to mend,'
you might settle the foundation for
breeding such and while doing so
make a little good easy money each
year while breeding up to the stand
ard. l would like to mention right
here that $4,000 was offered and re-
fused for the Kansas bred Joe Patch

pensable ingredient of which is horse
manure, and in a steady temperature.
The manure should not be allowed
to get saturated with rains, but should
be kept fairly dry until it is ready to
form bed, and all the long straw or
other litter should be shaken out of it.
Manure can be used to grow them in
only by turning it over repeatedly to
get rid of it's greatest heat. Usually
it is preferable to mix from onefourth
its bulk to equal its bulk with fresh
loan or good garden soil. Of course,
sufficient material should be ready be-
fore commencing to make the beds.
The latter may be of almost any size
or shape desired, but experience proves
that to have them from ? to feet
wide and about IS to 20 inches deep
answers the best. Where there is
plenty of room, it is q good plan to
make the beds more or less sloping at
the sides. Beds might also be made in
old tubs, or in casks sawed in two. BY
adopting this latter plan, the vessels
could, after being filed. be carried in
to the cellars or other parts of
not like to bring in the manure
in its rough form. In forming the beds
the manure and soil should be packed
firmly together, layer by layer, with
mallet, or something similar. a ther-
mometer should then be placed at
some central point of the bed, its bulb
being kept some three or four inches
below the surface. The probability is
that the temperature in the bed will
rise for few days and then begin to
lower. When it reaches about 50 de-
grees the bed is ready to spawn.
Spawn can be purchased in bricks of
all seedsmen to make start with, but
when mushroom culture is once COM
menced plenty of spawn can be had at
all times for planting new beds. The
bricks or pieces of spawn should be
broken to half the size of the hand
lengthwise. or less, before inserting in
the bed. These pieces should be placed
3 or inches deep and 10 to I2 inches
apart. About ten days after spawning
spread over the surface of the bed
some . to inches of nice, fresh loan,
and then Syait for your crop. This
should begin to show a few weeks
later, varying somewhat according to
the temperature.
Sometimes it is possible to dispense
with watering the beds, this being
only necessary when the surface gets
quite dry. Then water carefully, US
ing water heated to about 100 degrees.
By making up beds at intervals of
eight or ten weeks throughout the
year, a continuous supply of mush-
rooms may be secured. As a rule, how
