Snnflowers in Russia.

The common sunfower, although
native of this country, is now widely
cultivated and used for a greater variety
of purposes in Europe than here. In
Russia the seeds are parched and
eaten much as peanuts are eaten Ill this
country. They are also used as human
food in other regions. The seeds yield
from fifteen to twenty per cent. OF oil
of good quality by cold pressure, and
considerably more, but of poorer quail
ity, by hot pressure. The oil is en-
ployed for illumination, for wool dress
ing, in paints and in soap making.
The cold pressed oil is also used for
culinary purposes, being highly valued
in this connection in Russia. The
residue or cake remaining after ex-
tracing the oil is used as stock food
and as fertilizer. The impressed
seeds are employed as stock food
and the stalks as fuel, as source of
fibre and for paper making. The ashes
of the plant are rich in potash and are
therefore valuable as fertilizer, and
yellow dye is made from the flowers,
which also supply abundant nectar for
bees. The Agricultural Department
at Washington has recently issued
report on the subject of sunfower cul-
ture, in which it is stated that the
conditions for the growth of this crop
in this country are such that it will
probably be not greatly extended
