many cans, it is not always easy to
keep the cans clean and placed so
that they will take up but little room.
The device illustrated shows method
which has the merit Of being cheap
and at the same time keeping the cans
In a position so that they will drain
thoroughly. Set two posts in the de-
sired place far enough apart so as to
furnish the required amount Of space
for the cans; to these posts nail sew
eral boards, and on the boards fasten
at intervals several hooks of iron or
wood to catch the handle Of the can
over as shown in the cut. The can Ia
held in position by loops Of rope as
indicated. The side Of any building
can, of course, be utilized for the pur-
pose when convenient, and save the
cost Of building a special structure

The Uncle san, Potato.

A heavy yielding variety Of more
than average quality Is something
growers of potatoes have long desired.
and the tests Of the new variety, I'm
Gle Sam, shown In the cut, indicate
that it fills the bill. So large are the
yields of this variety under ordinary
culture, expert growers claim that it
has no equal. The tubers are uniform
in size. with comparatively few very
small specimens, and the quality is Of
the very best. In season the variety
Is medium to late. Unfortunately, re-
suits are not all that can be desired
on heavy soils or clay, but on sandy
or loamy soils it has no equal. In
form the Uncle Sam Ia oval, pure
white, with russell skin and shallow
eyes near the surface. Continued
tests may prove that the variety will
do better on heavy soils after the first
season, which is frequently the case
with sorts that have been grown from
the beginning in lighter soils. At all
events, the variety has too many gooG
points to throw it aside for culture OF
heavy soils after q single season o.
testing.

PLAYING Marble. In the City.

The average New York boy is just
about as ingenious as any boy in the
world, especially when 1t comes to In
venting games Of amusement. He is
compelled to play under many condi-
tons which do not confront the boys
of smaller cities. For one thing he has
not the space and for another the
police do not allow aim as much
rope" so to speak. as is allowed the
boys Of smaller cities. So he Is driven
to the necessity Of playing in accord
ance with the rules Of q great metrop-
oils. When he wants to play marbles
he cannot mark off q chalk ring in the
street because the police will be after
him for disfguring the pavement.
Boys who live downtown have no va
cant lots to play marbles in and up
town many Of the vacant lots are not
only fenced in but guarded by special
watchmen.
Consequently the New York boy has
to find another way to play marbles
He las finally settled upon the Iron
tops which cover openings to the va
rfous conduits under the streets. His
| favorite Is the large, square top which
covers an opening to the electric ligh'
conduits. This Is not only large, bu
1t Is made very rough on the surface
and has in the center round linden
tation which will hold quite a lot o
marbles.
Often one sees boys gathered abou
these iron tops enjoying a fine gam
Of marbles. Each one throws into tn

Of marbles and the game is to shoe
them out of the ring and off the to-
entirely. This is quite hard to do, a

Whole or Ground Corn.

At the West Virginia station hogs
fed four weeks on ground corn gained
about % per cent more than similar
hogs fed on whole corn. 1t is explained
that the hogs had been previously get
ting ground corn, and the change to
whole corn was not relished. The re-
sults of twelve experiments at eight
different stations along this line show
an average of sos pounds of whole
corn, or 472.9 pounds Of ground corn
for 100 pounds of gain-that Is, 1t re-
onires about per cent less ground
corn to make a pound of gain than
whole corn. 1t is generally concluded
from these experiments that unless
farmer is located near a mill 1t will
not pay to have the corn ground the
extra cost of grinding more than coun'
terbalancing the extra feed value OF
the corn.
