These curious vegetables assume the
form and appearance of cucumbers
and hang on the vines until their
green coats become brown and dry
like parchment. At this stage they
are ready to harvest. After they are
picked the brown coat is removed, and
an extremely strong and compact
fibrous sponge is revealed. Through
the center of this sponge, in three
lengthwise compartments, are many
black seeds which shake out easily. In
the Pasadena garden these spongeS

HOW SHOPPERS ARE SOLD.
Instead of Getting Wonderful Bar
gains They Very Often Merely
Buy Inferior Goods.

Very few women know that when
they think they have run across won
derful bargains in some of the shops,
when, in fact, they know they are
getting certain articles cheaper than
usual, because they remember the
price paid, apparently, for the same
thing at other times, they are really
paying all that the goods are worth,
for the simple reason that the bargain
lot is what manufacturers call sec
onds." To all appearances the Sec
onds look just the same as the orig
inal lot. If they happen to be un-
derwear, gowns or hosiery the mate
rial, manufacture and style seem ex-
cellent, but the manufacturer and the
buyer know that they are made out of
the second choice of material, and can
not be considered first class. They
are originally cheaper than goods that
were bought first, and can be sold at
something of reduction, so that $500
out of 10000 customers rejoice in the
thought that they have really found
bargain, whereas they have paid lib
orally for what they got. Sometimes
underwear that belongs to this lot
of seconds" is marked very plainly
with the word on the inside of the
hem or edge, but very few people ever
think to look for it, or would know
what it meant if they happened to
see it. When bargain hunting it is
a good plan to find out just what
grade of goods you are paying for, and
if that plan is followed it will be
easy to see that the instances where
something is obtained for nothing are
very rare.-Chicago Post.

SOFT CORN FOR LIVE STOCK
Results of Tests at Iowa Experiment
Station Summarized in Very
Interesting Bulletin.

Much corn failed 10 mature fully in
1902 and 1903. The same. owing to very
late planting, seems likely to be true
in 1904. Hence the feeding value Of soft
corn is live question. Tests at the
Iowa experiment station are fully given
in Bulletin No. Is, which may be had
on application by mail to c. F. Curtiss,
director, Ames, Ia. The following con-
illusions are deduced from the results
obtained:
1. That soft corn in 1902 and contain
ing IS per cent. of moisture, pound for
pound, on a water-free, or dry-matter
basis, was fully equal in feeding value
to mature corn grown in 1900 when used
for fattening cattle.
2. That cattle fed on such soft corn
made nearly as heavy gains and finished
as we'll as those fed on mature corn.
3. That when soft corn similar to that
lsed in the test could be purchased for
80 cents per bushel, gains on fattening
cattle could be made at cost of 1903
cents per pound less than when mature
corn, costing so cents per bushel, the
prevailing price, was fed.
4. That a study Of the Chicago live
stock market conditions from January
|, 1903. to July 81, 1903. shows that the
comparatively low prices of beef cattle
were not caused by an over-supply of
half finished cattle. On the contrary,
there was larger number of well-fin-
ished cattle marketed during that Pc
riod for 1903 than for the correspond
ing period of any one of the past ten
years.
S. That the chemical analysis would
indicate that the nutritive value of
the corn grown in 1902 compares ia
vorably with mature corn grown in
other years when water-free substance
or dry matter serves as basis of COM
parison.
6. That the amount of moisture
present was the main difference so far
as composition is concerned. That the
amount of moisture depends mainly on
the maturity of the corn when stricken
by frost.

NEW INDUSTRY FOR WOMEN
Out in California They Get Dish-Rags
from the Garden Instead Of
from the Stores.

A novel enterprise, that Of raising
dish-rags, is being exploited by a
number of southern California horti-
culturists, who received the inspira-
ton for the scheme from Charles
Richardson, whose gardens in Pasa-
dena are becoming famous for their
remarkable productions. Mr.. Rich
ardson has successfully raised many
growths new to American soil, and
this year is exceeding all his pre-
vious triumphs by raising thousands
of dish-rags.
Last year Mr.. Richardson's string
beans, which measured 43 inches in
length, created a stir, but dish-rag
vines, which, with their pendant dish
rags-twine about orange trees, palms,
evergreens and peach trees, and peek
in at the two-story windows, bid fair
to win the championship from the
beans
These dish-rags, Or vegetable
sponges, as they are sometimes called,
