FOR TIE FARMERS

The local walchoUslag Of apples has
attained an exceptional development
in western New York, vet an extensive
apple grower OF this section lately re
marked thai he would about as willing
ly risk apples in bis common or coo
frnit house. holding thousands OF bar
rolls. as in q commercial cold storage
plant. An example Of the frame fruit
storage houses in the region mentioned
Is built with double walls, with par
tition between. Tho space between the
partition and outer walls is filled with
sawdust, while that between the par
tition and inner wall is kept a dead
air space. The temperature of the
storage room is regulated as far as pos
sible by opening and closing the win
dows, according to outside conditions.
Other types Of common storage houses
In use in different parts Of the country,
While built on the same principle Of IN
sulated walls. add the feature Of ven
tilators for carrying Off inside heat and
introducing air from the outside on
days when it is sufficiently cold.
1t is now generally conceded that
practically all varieties Of apples keep
best when put into storage as soon as
picked. Some varieties, such as Hub
bardston, may color up better II allow
ed to lie on straw on the ground for
awhile. and this practice may be allow
able with apples that are TO be soon
used but is apt to be at the expense
Of the keeping quality. Only good
fruit should be stored. Storage does
not improve quality, A very useful
summary Of the experience OF practl-
cal men in keeping apples is that Of
Messrs Beach and Clark of the New
York experiment station. In it occur
the following hints:
Oyergrowh fruit does not keep as
well as fruit oe medium size. Thick
skinned varieties generally keep better
than thin skinned Oues. Colored apples
keep Best II picked when well colored,
but firm. With Rhode Island Green
ings In cold storage. however, the
fruit appears Better n picked while
stin very green and hard. In common
storage the rule holds go5d.gq ,9a q.
Rough handling of the fruit in the
barrels and, or co,nSe, at any time
previous to barreHiig is very injurious.
Northern spy Is one of the easiest to
bruise, Willie Tolman Sweet and Yet
low BelIfower' are both very sensitive
to rough handings
Fungus on fruit affects it's kcepiEr
quality injuriously. Affected frr!
keeps best in cold. dry atmosphere
clean fruit however, keeps best witt
considerable moisture in the air.
Generally speaking, apples keep mucl
better II Tie month Of October Is coo
than IL warm and better after a dr.
season than wet one II the scasol
ia such that the fruit does not color ~
wen the result is the same as whei
the fruit is picked too green.
Fruit which ripens unevenly on til,
trees should be given two or moro
pickIngs Cold storage does not longth
en- the life Of all varieties over com.
mon storage to an equal degree.

Costume
VelVeteens
(Aisle 15-eash

"Velutina" is the name of
our famous 81 quality vel
veteen, in which we carry as
many as fifty different shades
for costumes. Part street. part
light, delicate colors for even-
ing.
For many years this Eng
lish-dyed velutina has stood
the test in wear and color
and we know of no other at
81 that can equal it for close
ness of pile and perfect finish.
Costume Velreteen we call it, be-
cause it drapes and falls so beau
tifully and because the face looks
so like fine silk velvet.

SEED CORN.
A Farmer should Select and DeveIon
Corn For Ills own Locality.

A Farmer should Select and Develop
Corn For His own Locality.
No person can grow as good seed for
the farmer as he can grow himself
And certainly when he finds il necessaa
ry 20 purchase seed he should not have
TO 90 far from home. People say seed
runs out" They say a change OF seed
is necessary; they say that they must
bring in new varieties from long dis
tance in order to increase the vigor A,
scientist and practical farmer, Profess
or Andrew A. Soule of the University
OF Tennessee, afiirms that all these
things are untrue. Seeds. he says. run
out because they do not receive the
care and attention on the average farm
that the originator gave them in their
process OF development.
Corn has been grown on the same
farm and on the same land for years
and years ana has gradually improv-
ed throughout the whole period. Not
able examples OF this are found in the
case Of Boon County White, developed
by Mr.. Riley of Thornton, Ind, and
Early Leaning. developed by J. S.
Leaning OF Wilmington, o. These va
rieties, through intelligent selection,
have become two Of the standard va
rietles Of the great corn belt
Professor Soule recommends the
farmer 10 produce his own seed corn
because Il IL a needless expense to pur-
chase fresh seed every year, and when
once he obtains y variety adapted to his
soil ana climatic conditions Il will give
a larger yield and prove more sausfac-
rcry " he selects it so as 60 keep the
type uniform ANA the quality and yield
up TO certain standard.
Probably it is more important that
the farmer produce his own corn seed
than the seed of almost any other crop
because the plant is 50 susceptible 10
climatic influences. Notice the differ.
euce between the characteristics OF
corn produced in the scmltropical re
gions and OF that growing in Minneso-
ta In the tropics the stalk is enor-
nous. Under irrigation I'm Mexico Of
on from three TO Ave large ears are
obtained, and the stalks frequently
each height Of from eighteen TO
twenty feet. In Minnesota. on the 9th
rr hand, the cars are small. and the
stalk - not more than from five to
eight feet high A well established va
rlety Of river Bottom corn. such as
Huffman, when grown on uplands fire.
quently proves unsatisfactory
The studlous farmer has noted that
the variety of corn that does well on
his neighhor's farm may not do as we'll
on his. He has also observed that corn
brought into Tennessee from Iowa OF
even from Ohio does not do well the
first year, though it may do better the
second and third. on the other hand,
he has sometimes observed that corn
brought from neighhoring states and
counties Is an utter failure. All these
things plainly teach ms that the farm
er should pay attention to the selec-
ton and Development OF corn for his
jwn locality and for his specific needs

The beverage of Paraguay.

Mate. the national beverage of Para
quay. is brewed from the dried leaves
of the lex and does not intoxicate
Mate can be drunk hot or cold. it can
be taken with cream and sugar. like
tea or coffee. and il can be used
straight which seems by far the
best way of drinking ii. Plain mate is
quite bitter. and. like beer. II is an ac-
quired taste. The first sip gives a dis
tinctly bitter taste. and the drinker
sets down his glass with a wry face.
Presently. as soon as the bitter effect
wears of. the imbiber has a pleasant
recollection of the sensation. BY this
time the powerful stimulating property
of the drink has begun to work and the
drinker feels like taking another sip.
Mate makes the user of ii feel good" !"
makes him look with brighter eye on
the dark side of life. makes him forget
his troubles for the moment. and. best
of all. unlike beer. II makes him feel
like working or doing something with
his brain or his hands instead of loafing
or gossiping.
Chemists who have carefully ana
lyZed mate say that ii is perfectly
harmless. Ii has only the smallest per-
centage of caffeine and volatile oils.
and 1t never leaves bad after effect.
Even when the drinker has disorder
ed stomach or bad nerves the consump-
ton of mate is not followed by unpleas-
ant feelings.
