GOURDS SERVE MANY ENDS
ON SOUTHERN FARMS
Grow in Variety of Shapes and are
Used as Dippers and MiIkpans.

used as DIpperS and MIlkpanS.
Stopping at farm house in any of
our Southern states of North America
and asking for water, the tourist will
be directed to help himself at the well,
where gourd dipper hangs in readi-
ness.
In the South there is seldom found a
farm house where many gourd utensils
are not in evidence, and the tourist will
not be long in finding that in some of
the poorer homesteads, and, in fact, in
a great many of the Well-to-do farm
houses, they are the only known re-
ceptacles for water milk, food, soap
and the various articles found in coun-
try kitchens.
When a Southern farmer is about to
plant his fields and garden in the
spring of the year, he never neglects to
plant few gourd seeds. He selects
some out -the-way place nearaa rail
fence barn, hen house or some other
Outbuilding, where no other vegetable
coulu grow and flourish. The vines,
which ARE similar in appearance to
those of the pumpkins, are allowed to
run free and wild oYerithe ground, and
when the gourds begin to grow they
will assume curious shapes.
The poisoning of the gourd vine is
much after the fashion of that of the
pumpkin and then the gourd begins to
grow. At an early age it assumes a
shape which it will hold until full
grown. The gourd must be allowed to
hang upon the vines until heavy frost
occurs, for should it be picked sooner 1t
will only shriyel up and be useless.
After the frost has kiIIed the vines,
they are gathered and stored away to
become dry and hard; often the outer
! skin is scraped off while the gourd is
still green, but the rhind is not cut I'M
til the gourd has become hard and sea-
Soned. Then q saw is used and if the
gourd has been allowed to stand for
two or three years, it will be found to
| be as hard as walnut.
After the process of drying, the in
| side is scraped out, the shell boiled in
a strong solution of I've. and sometimes
| buried in the sands or left in a creek
| for two or three weeks.
After the gOurd has been thoroughly
| cleaned it does not require any further
| care, with the exception of an occa-
| Sional securing with sand and a wash
| with soap and water.
| A gourd during it's growth can be
made to assume many queer and fan
! taStic shapes, by a little deft work
every day for a short time The ham
| die can be tied into a knot, and by
| placing a growing gourd between two
boards it can be made to grow into the
shape of a flask or bottle which will
| fit the pocket, and may be used either
as a powder horn, nursing bottle or
whisky flask. Those with long necks
make excellent dippers.
Every Southern housewife has a
small sized gourd for holding salt, one
| for flour, one for pepper and other
| condiments, and a large one for lard.

bles.

duchess, so well known in our mar
kets as an early ffpening fall apple,
ana the luclouS Wealthy, at it's best in
november or Decenbery and undoubt-
eoiy the hnest of allJapples. These two
Varletles are supplemented by a great
tiuliipef OF other kinds! To those not
familiar with this industry in our state
!. VII. he surprise, toeknow that 334
named varieties or apples were exhibit
ed at our last state FAIR. This does not
include very large number of new
varieties originated from seed which
as yet have received no name. There
We're 1854 plates of apples on that oc-
casion in all. This year we are likely
to increase the size of this exhibit.
though if this should besthe case it will
necessarily be at the expense of some
other department, as all the space
available in the large area set apart in
agricultural hall for the fruit exhibit
last season was fully occupied. So,
Judging by the present outlook, the
pest eXhblt1on of the best quality of
apples ever gotten up in Minnesota will
be one of the drawing features of the
next state fair.
Plum Crop Is Light.
The plum crop in the state is I'M
fortunately light one, probably on ac-
count of the continuous wet weather
prevailing at the time of the blossom
ing of this fruit. Plums, it is believed,
are largely fortified by the operations
of insects, which, in wet weather, are
apt to be safely housed. What plums
are r1pened, however, on account of the
lightness of the yield, will be of I'M
usual size, color and quality, and the
loyalty of the members of the state
horticultural society, which stands be-
hind this exhibit, will insure a credit
able display, even in this fruit.
AS to lne grapes, the yield this year
is up to the best, and a beautiful ex-
hibit may be looked for.
For some years now mushrooms
have occupied a prominent place in the
horticultural hall, and the value of this
display is fully appreciated by the
management, as is shown in an in
crease of 25 per cent in the amount Of
premium offered for it.
THE archard industry of the state is
very much on the boom. During no
previous season have so many fruit
trees and so much nursery stock gem
orally been planted in our state as in
the present one. Several orchards of
upwards of 1000 apple trees have been
planted to the writer's personal knowl-
edge, which includes only very small
portion of the state. Undoubtedly the
paintings of orchard trees run far up
into the hundreds of thousands. The
day is not far off when Minnesota will
be growing it's own apples and a great
quantity for export at central points.
The fruit of this northern region being
so much superior in color, flavor and
keeping qualities to that of similar va
rlet1eS grown south of us, there will be
practically no limit to the market that
can be found for any surplus"
