Chufas.

They are sometimes called hognl1t:
or ground almond. Iii a perennial
sedge, spreading extensively by I'M
foreground stolons, which produce
enormous quantities of edible tubers
1t is closely allied, botanically, 10 our
much-dreaded COCO or nut grass (Cy-
perus rotundus), but, unlike that
plant, can be easily eradicated. It is
chiefly cultivated for hogs, which are
turned out into the patches in the fall
to root them up. Both the require
ments of the plant and the use to
which it is adapted suggests a light
sandy loan as the soil best adapted
for it.
The tubers contain from II to 20
per cent of oil, 81 to 80 per cent
starch, and IL to 21 per cent of gums
and sugar. The oil extracted from
this nut is said to possess superior
qualities for culinary purposes.
Experiments extending over several
years have been made with chufas at
all three of the Louisiana Experiment
Stations. It's success was great at the
North Louisiana Experiment Station,
where the soils are of light sandy
and loamy character. The first trial
(1SS9), given in Bulletin No. 81, was
"a grand success, giving a large yield,
suggesting and proving themselves to

CONSUMPTION CURED.

I was sick with hereditary con-
sumptionfor three years, and having
lost all of my Immediate family, con-
sisting of father, mother, two broth
ers and two sisters, besides seven I'M
cles, nine aunts and several cousins,
who died with it, 1 was given up to
die myself. I met an old physician,
who prescribed for me. After taxi
ing one bottle of his medicine, my
cough stopped, and after taking
three bottles, I was well. The testi-
mony of prominent physicians, min
listers of the gospel and business
men as to the truth of the above will
be furnished upon application. A
sample bottle of the medicine will be
sent to any address upon the receipt
of ten cents in stamps.

be a splendid crop for hogs" 1t has
been grown annually ever since, and
while success has attended every trial,
no effort has been made to extend the
cultivation by farmers first, because
there are many crops that equal it as
a hog feed; second, it is of the family
of grasses and draws directly upon
the soil for it's supply of food; third,
it is hardly adaptable for feed for do
nestle animals other than the hogs,
the tops being of little value; fourth,
the difficulty of saving seed.
The Spanish peanut "a legume
which draws largely upon the air for
it's nitrogen) is greatly to be pre-
ferred, not only for feed for hogs, but
for all kinds of stock. Both the vines
and nuts can be harvested together
and cured into hay, which will meet
the wants of all animals on the farm,
'including children and Chickens
The Spanish peanut, before the
drouth of last year, had obtained an
extensive planting throughout the
hills of North Louisiana, estimated as
high as 10000 acres. The seed OF
Spanish peanut and chufa were dis
tributed by the station at the same
time, about eight years ago, and both
with favorable recommendation. The
former has been extensively cult
waited; the latter is still confined to a
very restricted area.
Upon sandy lands chufas do we'll,
and the nuts can easily be reached by
the hogs. In stiff loamy or clayey
soils they have not been so success
fully grown, nor can they be SO easily
gathered by hogs. No accurate test
has yet been made as to yield per
acre, in bushels, by the stations.
Enormous yields have been reported
by farmers in other sections of the
country. The plant is valuable one,
but wherever the Spanish peanut can
be grown it is to be greatly preferred.
Dropping one or two nuts one foot
apart in the drill, in rows two and
one-half to three feet apart, and Gull
tivating like corn, has been the usual
method of procedure. 1t is said to be
especially adapted to dry regions. At
Calhoun, last year, it was severely
tested by the prolonged drouth. A
few tubers were former early in the
season, after which the plant re-
manned quiescent until after the rains
in September, when now tubers began
to form, which were quite immature
when killed by the frost. At harvest
two distinct sets of tubers were
found, neither well developed.
Seed can readily be obtained, and
those wishing to try a small crop can
easily and cheaply experiment for
themselves. Would suggest the sim
ultaneous trial of Spanish peanuts
and comparison of the results.-EN.

BEANS.

Beans are easily and quickly
grown and one should have them in
the garden even if frost does get
them. Plant the Early Long Six
Weeks variety about the first of Oc-
tober and if an early frost does not
put in appearance you will have an
abundance of delicious "snaps."
This year for our Thanksgiving
dinner we had green peas, snap
beans, green onions, radishes, new
Irish potatoes, lettuce, and could
have had turnips, beets and squash
To have plenty of onions begin by
setting out few sets and they will
be ready to pull in about months
time, if they are home grown from
Bermuda sets. About November 1st,
sow seed in drills and in January
they will be large enough to trans
plant Or use as green onions and
will continue to supply your wants
till after July.
Beginning with the first Of Janu-
AIRY the rotation of seed planting
can be gone over again and such
things added later as are hurt by
frosts, such as squash cucumbers,
ol<ra, etc.
SQUASH AND GJCUMBERs
Three hills each of squash and Gu
cumbers will give an abundance for
the table and a few "cukes' for
picking.
There is one very important es-
sential in garden-making and that
is to have the land we'll fortified.
The plan [ follow and which gives
best results so far, is to pillow out
the rows and scatter a liberal supply
Of fertilizer in the bottom, thorough
ly mixing it with the soil and the
burrows nearly half filled up. This
is left for three or four days when
seed are planted and the furrow
nearly filled. I always plant every
thing in a furrow so that if there is
rain the roots will get the benefit Of
it or if you have water it does not
take so much and can be applied di
rectly when wanted.
The new sets from the north take
longer to start than the homes grown

little judgment in the selection of
what they plant, and when they
plant it.
The writer has had fall and
spring garden for the last ten years
and while conditions of seasons have
been such that they did not always
do WE'LL yet in every instance they
paid for the expense and labor, in
the supply of fresh vegetables for
the family use.
I first made the mistake that many
are making, and that is, of planting
too much, consequently found my
self growing vegetables for my
neighbors as we could not begin to
utilize all the products.
1t is surprising how much can be
grown on a small patch, well cared
for; and my advice to all beginners
is, begin on a very small scale and
For fall gardening such vegetables
by frosts, among which are cabbage
lettuce, turnips, onions, satisfy, car
rots, radishes and peas.
>BBAGE
Get five cents worth of seed and
plant about the first of November
when the seed may be watered if
needed. When large enough, trans
plant. twenty-five to fifty heads will
be all an ordinary family can we'll
use. Frequent cultivation and ferti-
lization will do the rest. If cut
worms bother, take a teaspoonful of
Paris green and thoroughly mix
with two quarts of flour. Sprinkle
a little Of this mixture around each
plant The worms will feed on the
flour and consequently get the poi
son and die.
CAULIFLOWER
This vegetable may be raised the
same as cabbage, but requires more
fertilizer. 1t is injured by heavy
frosts, as also are Brussels sprouts.
TURNIP GREENS.
If you are fond of green's plant a
row, Of say so feet rather thick of
Rutabaga or Breadstone turnips. AS
soon DIS large enough you may com
mence to pull them for greens and
continue until the bottoms are large
enough to eat The white egg is
good variety to raise for roots but
does not make as good greens. The
turnip remains solid much longer
than other varieties
CARROTS AND Satisfy.
Carrots and satisfy should be
planted as early in November as pos
sible, although they may be planted
any time from November 1st until

the soil until used up or way into
summer, say June Or July when the
