A Description of Endive. and When and
How to Grow 1t.
What is endive and how is it grown?
we are asked. Its leaves make a splen-
did salad when properly blanched, and
one that is very useful, as it comes in
after lettuce is gone. 1t may be grown
at any season, but Is usually grown for
use late III the fall. For an early crop
sow in April, in drills Is inches apart,
and later on thin out to 1e inches in tho
rows. It can also be so1vn in beds and
transp1anted to the above distance after
attaining sufficient size. The mail,
sowinRs are made in June and July
Ordinary good soil and cultivation 10
all IT, requires. When nearly full
grown 1t is blanched in the following
manner: Gather up the leaves and tie
them by their tips in q conical form,
thereby excluding the light and al,
from their inner leaves, which then
blanch to . beautiful. yellowish white.
This process takes two to five weeks.
according to the temperature, bleach
ing fastest in warm weather. An
other method is to lay clean boards
right over the plants which excludes
the air and light. Tie up at different
times as it only keeps a short time
nfter blanching. For winter use take
up with earth and store in frames or a
dry cellar. One ounce sows 100 feet of
drill.-Farmers' Voice.

IT is a mistake to set trees in OF

to some extent by placing a mound OF

worked hard to keep cows clean In

that their hind feet would come just at

ment to the COWS, but at the best they
are not wholly comfortable. and to do
her best dairy COW must at all times
be comfortable. There Is another plan
which is shown In the accompanying
illustration. The COWS are hitched
with chains that slide up and down
upon a rod, two cows in each wide
stall, or one in q narrow stall as
preferred. There is a solid partition
between the stalls and the cribs,
a hinged door admitting the head
of each COW to her crib at feeding
time. When the ration has been eaten
the doors are closed and buttoned.
which forces the cows to stand back
until their hind feet come to the edge
of the gutter, and to lie down also in
that situation. When the doors are
closed any manure that has fallen
have been standing ahead feeding is
scraped into the gutter, and the COWS
left until the next feeding.
Where the manure cellar Is under
the cattle it will be found most con-
venient to have the manure traps in
the raised walk, as shown, rather than
in the bottom of the gutter, where
they are buried beneath the manure
and filthy to handle. Handy shelves
that are hinged and folded against the
wall when not In use are shown at the
rear of the raised walk. The doors
admitting the cows heads to the cribs
in front will be found exceedingly
convenient when feeding grain, roots
or ensilage. One can then put the
ration in the crib without molestation
from the horns or nose of the animal,
eager to get at its breakfast or dinner.
The door can then be unbuttoned and
allowed to swing in against the side
of the crib. when the COW can come
forward and eat. The CRIB can be
made to fold down against the outside
of the partition if more room is desired
at any time in the feeding floor
