Concentration Of Breeding.

Important as the head of the herd
is to the highest development Of its
members, 1t is surprising to continual
ly hear of dairymen ignoring breed
and performance of a strain and select
ing the cheapest animal, says New
Zealand Dairyman. 1t is all the more
strange considering that, in buying a
bull, it is not so much a matter of put
ting money into an individual animal,
but it means the improvement of the
whole future stock, and the improve
ment, of course, must be largely
gagged by the value of the animal
selected as the head. Selection and
culling of the cows is most important,
but the surest and speediest way of
bringing up the herd is to have a fine
ly bred bull from a proved milking
strain. AS dairy farmers in New Zea-
land get cramped for room, concentra-
ton in everything else must neces-
sarily follow-concentration of cult
walton, of feeding and of breeding. By
concentration of breeding we near
making one good, well bred-up GOV do
the work of two scrubbers. When
prices get tighter, dairymen who are
slow to see this principle now will
have the fact forced upon them that
they can't afford to feed and care for
the scrub animal; it is the men who
have already learned this lesson who
are now happy and prosperous mem
bers of the great dairying fraternity.

Old or Young sows.

A bulletin on hog raising in the
south says: The number of litters
which a SOW should be allowed to have
before she is fattened for butchering
depends on the animal herself. When
a young SOW has only four or five pigs,
or shows herself to be a poor mixer
or a careless and Indifferent mother,
the ooner she is fattened the better;
but if she does fairly well she should
be given a second trial. The second
litter is usually larger than the first.
If she then proves a good mother and
her pigs from both filters develop into
good porkers, she should be kept as a
breeder until she can be replaced by a
more prolific and better animal. An
old SOW which regularly raises large
filters of good pigs is worth half a
dozen untried gifts. An aged SOW
mated with a young boar will produce
pigs which will mature earlier than
those produced when the SOW is young
and the boar aged, which is a strong
argument in favor of keeping a SOW as
long as she continues to breed salts
factorily. Ordinarily sows cease to be
profitable breeders after they are 4
or S years old, but some raise good
/ litters after they reach 8 or 9 years.
When a SOW more than 4 years old
fails to give a good litter whenever it
| is due, she may as we'll be fattened at
once.

K.ns.s Dairy Products

Secretary Coburn Of the Board Of

says: The state has again advanced
in. total output and value Of her COW
products. The years aggregate value
of butter and cheese made, and milk

over last year of 2,3o6,7s6 lbs, or 5.56
per cent. OF this, SO per cent, or 25.-
800, 112. lbs, were made in families, and
Al per cent or 17,94S, 645' lbs, in cream

When trees are planted in an or

is an early bearer and short lived. The
trouble with trees that are not short
lived is that when once put into the

ton.

storage diminishing the necessity for
late-keeping varieties Of apples?" In
the light of the present years expert
ence We would say no. Even cold stor-
age cannot be depended on to keep
the fall varieties till mid-winter or
spring. Many thousands of barrels of
that kind Of fruit that went into cold
storage last fall kept very badly. This
may not have been the fault of the
cold storage, but Of the condition Of
the fruit when it was put in. We can
not depend or storing fruit in proper
condition for storage, OF of having 1t
eaten up as soon as it gets out of the
cold storage house. We must have
apples that will hold together for
weeks before being stored as we'll as
weeks after coming from the cold stor-
age house. If a man buys a barrel OF
apples for his family he wants to
know that they will last some weeks
till they can be used up. No, cold
storage has not diminished the neccs-
sity for late keeping fruits.

PENCILS ANDHIS WIFE

The shabby little crippled seamstress
who lived on the top floor of the back
tenement at - East Seventeenth
street did not look like a heroine Of
a romance, but for all that she was
one.
When Pencils" the blind man who
stood patiently through heat and
10y and rain at the foot Of the
Third avenue L steps, thought of her
goodness and kindness to him the
heart under his old faded, patched coat
beat like a ~trip-hammer.
Pencils was wont to beguile the
time between trains by thinking of
his romance. It helped him to bear
the broiling heat, the nipping cold,
or the pelting rain. The people who
hurried past him so much as
dreamed that the blind pauper stand
ing there, timidly proffering his wares,
knew what the word meant.
But "Pencils" never wearied of
thinking of the little woman who had

shine he had ever known.

of a blind asylum. There were mill

When Pencils" weary and sick of
stewed prunes, asked for fresh apple
sauce, there was chaos and consterna-
ton in the institution. No such re-
volt has been on record since Oliver
Twist asked for more.
The end of 1t was that Pencils was
cast forth and told to shift for himself.
There was a little crippled seam
stress sewing in the l~inen-room-a
homely, shabby, little creature, indus
trious and reticent. The story drifted

that beautiful hospitality only to be
found among the poor.

Potatoes.

In early spring, last year, I ploWed
to the depth of six inches, a piece OF
blue grass sod. In May I cut the sod
thoroughly with the disc. The latter
part of June I planted the land to po-
tatoes in the following manner, says
a contributor to Epitomist: Plowed
one round in the middle of the patch.
Planted potatoes-which were cut In
halves-in these two burrows. Placed
the seed on the mellow soil, at the ! d
of the furrow, and a little from the
bottom in order to prevent the furrow
horse from stepping on it, and also
to guard against planting too deep.
Covered with the pillow, and then plant
ed in every third furrow.
The fiat side of the seed was placed
underneath, for that gives each plant
a fair chance and the crop will ripen
evenly. When the potatoes had had
time to sprout nicely, the ground was
thoroughly narrowed. AS soon as the
plants appeared above ground the cul-
tivator was put to work, and followed
with the harrow. They were now left
alone until six or eight inches high.
Potatoes planted in this way do not
make much growth until the fall rains
come. But I have always succeeded
in growing a good crop by planting
the middle of June. My last years
crop yielded 1856 bushels per acre. I
always plant a late variety. II I plant
late in the season.
My regular system is to plow my po-
tato ground late in the fall or very
early in the spring. I am never much
bothered with bugs. Just as soon as
the soil is At to work in the spring !
plant early potatoes. I always cut Oh
and throw away the cluster of sprouts
at the bloom end Of the tuber when
cutting the seed. Too many sprouts
in one bunch will produce small po-
tatoes. If early potatoes fail-and
they often do in this locality-the late
crop can be relied upon. Last year my
late potatoes were sold for so cents a
bushel, which made me $142.50 an acre.

AS FOOD.

Chemists and Doctors Differ Greatly as
to Their Value.
A great deal has been said concern
ing the immense amount of valuable
food which was daily going to waste
in the shape of edible fungi, says the
London Family Doctor. We are told
that in many parts Of the world these
articles form the staple articles OF diet
of the inhabitants. Our attention has
been called to the natives Of Patagonia
and Terra del Fuego, who are said to
be of gigantic stature, and to exist
principally on vegetable fungi, and to
certain African tribes who value
mushrooms so highly that one of them,
the polyporus sacer, is w%orshiped as a
god. Chemists have assured us that
mushrooms belong to the animal rather
than the vegetable kingdom, seeing
that they possess a larger percentage
of nitrogen than any other class OF
vegetable life. They are, We are told.
essentially protein in composition, as
much SO, pound for pound, as butchers
AASoSs WV 0O14 Hal oNAOAIAoI0, AS0A
brausch and Ziegel. stated some years
ago, as a result Of chemical ~investiga-
ton, that mushrooms deserve to be
placed with meat as sources of nitrog-
enous nutriment. One man in Thur
.ingia is said to. have lived upon moth
ing but mushrooms for thirty years,
and to have died a centenarian. Com
parison has even been made between
mushrooms and other articles Of food
to the detriment of the latter. Thus
chemical analysis has shown mush-
rooms to contain from 20 to Is per
cent of protein, while bread only con-
tains 8 per cent, potatoes S per cent,
and barley meal 6 per cent Of protein.
Against this, however, we have the
opinion Of a DR.. Kitchener, who in
1924 stated in a publication called
Cooks Oracle" that he did not be-
lieve that mushrooms were nutritious.
DR.. Jonathan Pereira. in his Treatise
on Food and Diet" published in 1843,
said: Mushrooms are difficult of d.
gestion, and on certain constitutions
act injuriously." Invalids. dyspeptics
and those with delicate stomachs will
act p%rudently in avoiding the use of
this doubtful order of foods. Other
writer's have expressed similar opin-
ions, not, however, based on expert
mental work, and therefore they are
not absolutely reliable.
