WISH YOU

A Happy New Year. That's what you'd hear on all sides last week. Some people meant it when they made the remark; others didn't thlnk or what they were saying; it was simply . matter of courtesy. But the most wicked man we know anything about Ia a man who wishes you happy ana prosperous New Year and goes straight to his office and jumps the price or coal up to $12.60 per ton, just $2.lo higher than when he wished you a happy New Year. Say, we have or ten heard of rubbernecks, but when the people begin to have rubber hearts It's high time to open our eyes and see how we are being hoodwinked. Re- member, OUR say so is our do so. When we tell you our coffees are al- ways fresh and the best quality you ran depend on it. You may rest easy; we will never wish you a happy New Year and then roast you when you call at our store; that's not our prin- eipie. We wish everyone, even the coal dealers a happy New Year, and during 1903 we guarantee to sell tea and coffee that will bring happiness Into the hearts of all who use them pr we will refund the money. That's fair, isn't it? And our butter is still sS cents per pound and it's the good quality, too, at

An Interesting Experiment.

The department of chemistry, as
sisted by the department of agricul-
ture, of the experiment station at
Pullman, is engaged in an interesting
experiment to determine the effect up
on lard of cotton seed meal fed to
hogs. Chemists have hitherto relied
chiefly upon certain test to show the
presence of cotton seed oil in adulter-
ated lard. There seems to be some in
dication that lard from hogs fed with
cotton seed meal will respond to the
same test While this would seem
contrary to the accepted principles OF
metabolism, yet the evidence is sif-
ficient to warrant careful examination.
The two departments above mention
ed are at work upon the problem.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1903-02-15

of proper cultivation. The usual mode
of training the Evergreen has been
used at the station with good success,
l. e., the canes are trained both ways
on a trellis All 1aterals should be
kept cut off during the growing season
else they will soon occupy all the
space between the rows.
Thorough cultivation is necessary
for best results, as this plant is a Wig
orous grower and needs plenty OF
moisture in order to mature its fruit.
1t readily responds to applications OF
liquid during the ripening of the fruit.
AS yet we have not been able to
make a fair estimate of the yield of
this berry, but in comparison with the
Evergreen it promises to be superior
in that respect
Other Features.-The plant is very
hardy, it's canes are smooth and clean,
and as yet has shown no tendency to-
ward disease 1t may be prOpagated
from suckers, which it produces in
abundance in the autumn, and from
the tips of the canes which take root
readily if covered with soil early in
the season.
ConcIusions.-Here in Western
Washington there are many localities
e-eminently adapted to the culture
of berries, and in some, particularly
the Puyallup Valley, berry growing
has become one of the principal indus
tries. A large amount of berries is
shipped each year to points in Mon
tana, the Dakotas, Minnesota, etc., and
to supply this market varieties are
much sought for which possess the
qualities of productiveness, firmness,
good flavor etc. In the two years
study of Burbanks Himalaya Giant
here it has exhibited all these quail
tiles to a greater degree than any 9th
er variety now known. to the berry
growers of this section.
While our experience with it is linn
tied, we feel safe in recommending
it to those of our fruit growers who
help to supply distant market and
who desire healthy, hardy and pro-
ductive blackberry.

Supt. Puyallup Experiment Station.

RlJRBANK'S HIMALAYA GIANT
BLACK ERRY.

which. from among the various tests
of varieties of black-berries at this
citation during the past three years,
stands out conspicuously as one well
adapted to this portion of the country.
This berry has been examined during
the past two years by many OF the
berry growers of the country and has
been pronounced by all as plant OF
exceptional promise.
Orioin and History.-Burbank's
Himalaya Giant is a seeding raised
from some seed obtained from the
Himalaya mountains in Asia some
eight or ten years ago. 1t was intro
duced into this country by Luther
Burbank, of Santa Rosa, CAL, who Sc
1ected the best plant from this seed
and propagated it.
Three years ago a comparative test
of varieties of small fruit was begun
at this station and a number of vari-
cites of blackberrieS were introduced,
among which was the Himalaya Giant.
These were planted in good sandy
loam-a type of the best berry land
in the Puyallup valley.
About the same time Mr.. A. Nc
Murray, of Tumwater, Washington, in
PRODUCED the same variety from Cali
fornia and planted it on shot clay up
land, below which, at a depth of two
or three feet, was a subsOil of sand.
: On both hill5 and bottom land the
growth of this berry has been remark
able.
Habits.-In habit and appearance it
greatly resembles the Evergreen
blackberry, Rubus lactiniatus Wild.
It has long trailing canes which are
strong and thick varying from one
to one and a half inches in diamteer
on the bottom land 1t is ranker
grower than the Evergreen and has to
be trained to the trellis while young
and pliable or it will soon get beyond
control At the station this year the
new canes made a growth of between
25 and 80 feet. On the hill land at
Tumwater the growth was not nearly
so rank as on the sandy bottom, part
ly due to the nature of the soil and
partly to lack of cultivation. The
plant is, however, strong and healthy
and is considered by Mr.. McMurray
as the best berry in his nursery.
The Fruit.-Compared with the Ev-
ergreen the berries are about the
same size, the seeds are smaller and
the flavor better. It ripens it's fruit
about the same time as the Snyder
and Kittatinny, being a much earlier
berry than the Evergreen. The season
is long, lasting this year from August
1, date of first picking, to September
Is, date of last picking.
Last year comparative tests OF the
keeping qualities of a number of vari-
cites of blackberries were made as
follows: Boxes of Erie, Snyder, Kit
tatinny, Early Harvest and Himalaya
Giant were carefully picked and laid
away in a cool place. At the end OF
seven days upon examination the
Himilaya Giant was found to be in
splendid condition, while all the 9TH
ers were covered with mould. This
year another test was made with the
same result. Shipping tests made last
year resulted in it's being carried to

How to Avoid Grip.

DR.. Cyrus Edison OF New York, in dis
cussing the grip epidemic, is quoted az
saving:
Grip is contagious, and if the public
were fully aware OF that fact many I'M
necessary infections would be avoided.
The grip germ, spirillum, or bacillus,
locates itself principally in the mucous
membranes of the respiratory tract, and
it is an air-borne disease, one &C.
quires it by breathing in the germs.
ample evidence of its CONSCIOUSNESS
has been found by its passage through a
family, a city or section of the coun-
try, travelling along the ordinary lines of
travel. 1t is in this way that it was
brought to this country some fifteen
years ago coming in steamers from
Europe.
"a great mistake is made by the man
who returns to his work too soon after
an attack of grip.
ITO avoid catching the grip, keep out
of the way of people who have it, keep
warm and keep your feet dry. If your
baby has the grip, don't kiss it. If your
stenographer has the grip, send her
home until she gets we'll. If your friend
has the grip, send him flowers and re-

AN ACCOMPLISHED WOMAN.

Miss Mary Lamson Clark, one of the
greatest exponents of domestic science in
tnlS country, mas been engaged by the La
clede Gaslight Company to organize and
conduct schools of domestic science, with
special reference TO the art Of cooking.
Miss Clark Is SO well known as a friend
and pupil of Mrs. Rorer's. by those giving
these matters any attention, as to make it
seem se her almost most sIperuoSs to refer in detail
give short account of her previous work.
because our city is rapidly becoming filled
with strangers.
Miss Clark is a native of Massachusetts.
and took her training at the Boston Cook
ing School. with postgraduate work at the
South kensington School of Cooking in
observation in study at Vienna, Naples
and Paris. Upon returning to this country

School. Later she was in charge of the
Washington Cooking School, in the City Of
Milwaukee Cooking School, conducting It
for a number of years in a very successful
manner. turning out during that time many
Maine to California. She also spent some
time in lecturing on the art of cooking be-
fore various farmers institutes throughout
but also has that rare faculty of imparting
her knowledge to all. no matter how few
their personal advantages may have been.
Miss Clark expects to spend year or more
in this city and will organize classes in
every ward. The expense of this work will
be enormous. but the Laclede GaSl1ght
Company is determined to educate us IN
these lines. and though We cannot see how
1t can expect to reimburse itself for this

will of ali thinking people. This work really
should be conducted under the auspices and
at the expense of the public-school system,
