A MORNING GLORY CULT.

This Flower Taking the Place of Chrys-
anthemums In Japan.
Miss Eliza Ruhamah Scidmorc has an
article on 1.-The Wonderful Morning
Glories of Japan" in The Century Miss
Scidmore says:
As a floral sensation the chrysanthe-
mum may be said TO have had its day,
the carnation is going, going, and seek
ers after novelty among flower fanciers
are signing for new flower TO conquer.
1t is hardly known, even to foreign res
idents in Japan, that that land which
has given us so much of art and beauty,
has lately revived the culture Of its most
remarkable flower, the asagao, our
morning glory. For size, beauty, range
of color and illimitable variety there
attained this sunrise flower precedes all
others until its cultivation has become
craze, which is likely to spread to
other countries, and-who knows--per-
haps there introduce the current Jap
anese custom of ) o'clock in the morn
ing teas and garden parties.
Asagao, the morning flower, is more
especially Japan own blossom than
the chrysanthemum, which, like it,.
came from China as a primitive sort OF
weed, afterward to be evolved by Jap
anese art or magic into floral wonder
of hundred varying forms.
We who know and grow the morn
ing glory as humble back yard vine on
string-a vine with leaves like those
of the sweet potato and puny little pink
or purple fowers--are as far III the
floral darkness as the Chinese, who
know it chiefly as wild thing OF fields
and hedge rows, the vine of 1.-The little
trumpets" or the dawn flower that
is entangled with briers and bushes for
miles along the top of Picking walls.
The old poetry and the old art do not
seem to be permeated with 1t, as IN
Japan, where the forms of vases, bowls
and cups, the designs and paintings OF
the greatest masters, repeat the graceful
lines of vine and flower, and scores OF
famous poems celebrate the asagao in
written characters as beautiful to the
eye as is their sound to the ear.
The asagao was brought to Japan
with the Buddhist religion, that partic-
ular cult of early rising. Scholars and
priests who went over to study the new
religion brought back the seeds of many
Chinese plants. The tea plant came
then, and Eisai brought the seeds of the
sacred DO tree, and Tai Kwan, the Chi
nese priest at the ObalSu temple in Uji,
who may have introduced the flower to
Japan, was one of the first to sing of
the asagao in graceful outas, classic
poems which scholarly brushes repeat
today "Asagaos bloom and fade so
quickly, only to prepare for the NOR
row IS glory, is Tai Kwan's best known
verse.

causes the animal to gain rapidly in
weight. 1t is an excellent addition to a
ration for fattening cattle.
For feeding to animals the beans
should be ground and the meal used
with some less concentrated feeding
stuffs. Professor Brooks in Massaohu-
sets found that it compared very ia
vorably with cottonseed meal. Cows
fed ON soy bean meal gave richer milk
and produced a better quality of butter
than when fed ON cottonseed meal, but
on the latter the cream was richer.
Professor Georgeson of the Kansas
station obtained excellent results in
feeding hogs on a ration of which soy
bean meal was prominent constituent.
The soy bean thrives best in soils Of
medium texture well supplied with
lime, potash and phosphoric acid. 1t
endures drought well, is not easily in
jured by excess of moisture and may be
grown about as far north as corn.
In some sections, particularly in the
south, the soy bean is often pastured.
Although hogs are perhaps most fire.
quently used, all kinds of stock can be
pastured on it. Farmers maintain that
by this method of feeding the land is
benefited as much as if the crop had
been plowed under.

Apropos of the experiments with sug-
ar beets it is stated in the annual report
of the United States secretary of agri-
culture that the policy of the depart
ment in the future will be to encourage
the introduction of what will enable
our people to diversity their crops and
keep at home money that is now sent
abroad to buy what the United States
should produce. Seven tons of imported
sugar beet seeds were distributed last
spring in 81 states, among 20, 900 farm
ers, through the experiment stations of
those states to ascertain where the
sweetest beets can be produced. Samples
are now being analysed at the expert
ment stations, and where they are not
prepared to do the work the beets are
forwarded to the laboratory of the de-
partment at Washington. There is
abundant encouragement to lead us to
conclude that our country will within a
few years produce what sugar it re-
quires. The department will collect all
the facts regarding the work of this
season and publish them for general dis
tribution. The pioneer work will be
pushed theoretically during the next
year.

Its Value as n Feeding Ration For Farm

The soy bean, also called sofa bean,
has been the subject of thorough trial to
discover its forage and food value since
its introduction in this country. From
the agricultural department comes the
assurance that there is no other crop so
easily grown that is so rich and can be
used to such good advantage in COM
pounding feeding rations as the soy
beam Excepting the peanut, there is no
other raw vegetable product known
which contains such high percentages
of protein and fat in such highly di-
gestibIe form.
In Virginia sofa beans are planted
between the hills Of corn. so that two
crops are produced on the same field at
the same time The yields of seed are
often enormous. Sofa beans are fed to
stock green as silage or as hay The
haulms are rather woody and do not
make the best quality of hay, but as
either ensilage or green forage they are
unsurpassed The hay contains from IA
to 10 per cent crude protein and 3 to 8
per cent of fat. The beans contain from
80 to AZ per cent protein and from p to
81 per cent of fat in fresh material.

beans increases the yield of milk, i'm

The Agricultural Epitomists says:
"a bunch of hungry hogs will do good
job turning and filming coarse straw ma
nure if some grain is sown upon it. Oc-
casionally their roofing propensities may
be utilized in other ways" A Maine
farmer is said to remove stumps by
fencing them in, making holes under
them with a crowbar, placing grain in
the holes and turning hogs into the en-
closure. In roofing among the roots the
hogs are said to root the stumps out by
the roots.
