CaIceO1arias.

Calceolarias are becoming better
known and gaining friends each year.
A writer in Gardening has told how to
propagate them as follows:
Cuttings should be rooted in August
and the young plants grown along as
cool as possible. AS spring approaches
they will make vigorous growth and
potting must be attended to. Never
let them become root bound. A light
and sunny bench will be suitable
place, with plenty of air and a morn
ing Swinging. Greenfy is best dis
posed of by mild applications of nico-
tine water. Never plunge them in to-
bacco stems, or the bottom foliage will
soon disappear.
RENEWING THE STRAWBERRY BED
A large strawberry bed from which
we have just taken large first crop
we have treated as follows to prepare
it for next year: AS soon as the last of
the berries were gathered we moved
it off close to the ground with sharp
scythe. 1t was then raked clean, then
thoroughly plowed with garden cul-
tivator. leaving strip of plants not
over a foot in width. A top dressing
of well rotted manure was then scat
tered over the bed, and the plowed
strips will be cultivated over at least
twice more. The new plants will then
be allowed to run and set, and the bed
will be in good condition for crop
next year After taking another cron
from it it will be plowed up.

If you are fool enough to bite at

pinched, but take your medicine and

The increasing productiveness of the
agricultural sections of the west and

Through large part of the country

A Convenient Cheesebox.

w. A. Sinister, Ingersoll, Canada,
has invented an improved cheesebox
which is constructed to prevent ripping
or splitting of the box. 1t is so ar
ranged that both heads can be removed
to allow of readily placing the cheese
in the box. The heads are so locked il
place that they can be conveniently re-
moved to allow inspection from either
end without destroying the box or in
juring the cheese.

IMPORTANCE OF THE CORN CROP

IMPORTANCE OF THE CORN CROP.
The relation which the cotton crop
and the wheat crop and the products
of our iron mines bear to the business
prosperity of the country can hardly
be oyerestimated. but of greater i'm
portance than any of these is the
growing crop of corn. The corn forms
the basis of so large a portion of the
foodstuffs of the country that only
during a year when the crop is short,
rs last year, do we fully realize its i'm
portance. The country is so well
cleaned out of old corn that even a
bumper crop for 1902 could not posi-
bly, force the price of corn down to
point where it would be an unprodta-

Loss In Cheese.

The factors controlling loss are
amount of water originally present, the
texture of the cheese, the size and
shape of molds used, moisture present
in the air of the curing room and the
temperature of curing room. The last
two are the most important, but can be
quite easily controlled

Genevn Investigating.

The Geneva experiment station is
considering the causes that produce the
ripening of cheese. The engines are
the agents that break down the protein
compounds and make cheese digestible
by the human stomach. Bacterial
changes seem to be intimately connect
ed with chemical changes, and until the
processes are known little progress can
be made in scientific cheesemaking.
Without this light advances will be
made. but they will be more accidental
than planned. Without this knowledge
we find it practically impossible to de-
velop cheese of uniform quality.-Dairy

WAKING|

A hitherto unknown element in milk,
a new ferment, has been discovered,
called galactose, which is proving of
value in the ripening of cheese. The
properties of this ferment are similar
to the secretion of the pancreatic organ
in the human body. Old cheese is pre-
digested food, and the digestion is
wrought by the galactose. 1t was
found that the galactose would go on
working at very low temperatures,
temperatures at which bacteria were
practically inert Cheese was put into
refrigerators and kept frozen for
months. Other cheese was kept just
above the freezing point. 1t was found
that the finest cheese is cured at from
40 to 40 degrees f. Practical cheese
manufacturers had maintained that 80
degrees was the lowest temperature
at which cheese could be worked with
out becoming bitter and worthless. The
new discovery will, it is believed, revo-
lutionize cheese manufacture, doing
away with all curing rooms, the cheese
being sent directly to the refrigerator
