Coffee FOrfhe 4rInY.

The yearly contract for supplying
coffee for the United States Army is
about to be let by the Quartermaster
General, and the Department of Ag-
riculture has been called upon to de-
eide which brand shall be purchased.
This test was made under the super
vision of DR.. Wiley, Chief of the Blu
reau of chemistry. He selected a jury
OF veteran coffee drinkers who know
and can tell good coffee from bad by
flavor and by the odor with the pot at
probably hundred yards distant. The
jury assembled in DR.. Wiley's Office
where the bureau cook had prepared
several small lots of coffee from the
samples submitted. They were tested

Practical Farm Experiments.

OF the various publications of the
Department of Agriculture the most
useful and probably the most popular.
is a farmers bulletin issued five or
six times year on experiment station
work. practical Farm Experiments"
would probably be n comprehensive
title for these bulletins. as each
pamphlet of about 80 pages is COM
posed of n dozen or fifteen short de
scriptions of practical farm matters,
the outcome of the experiments and
tests of the variOcs government eX-
pertinent stations all over the coun 'ry.
Their value lies largely in the fact
that each article is only couple of
pages in length and it can be picked
up and read through at odd moments,
whereas when II farmer receives Il
longer bulletin he is more likely to lay
it away for some future reading when
he has more time, and as time is usu-
ally pressing on the farm, it is likely
never to get read at all.
Farmers Bulletin No. 233 is the
last issue Of these bulletins and its lit
tie stories are decidedly interesting
Information given on the root system
of field crops will be n surprise to
probably even some Of the best in
formed farmers. An illustration is
shown of corn roots as they occupy
the ground i'm the corn rows. IT shows
n myriad of small rootlets, entirely en-
comprising the ground i'm every direc-
ton for n depth of almost four feet.
The root systems of various other
plants are described. Wheat roots oc-
cupy the ground to depth of four

OLD AGE PENSION.
Much Attention Given in France to
the Care of the INDECENT.

France evidently does not believe
that the old should be chloroformed
and put out of the way, for, according
to official reports received from United
States officials located at Paris, that
government has a system of pension
ing for the aged. For more than
century the French government has
been experimenting with schemes for
giving an annuity to the old, not, how
ever with entire success.
At the present time deposits are re-
ceived from any person, regardless of
age, but the amount may not exceed
800 francs (S9G.50) in the course of q
year. An account may be opened for a
child of three years of age married
woman may deposit money without her
husbands consent. At any age be-
tween fifty and siXty-five Cor earlier
in case of permanent disability to
work. the depositor may claim his an
nuity, which is calculated according to
Charlevoix county herald., 1905-12-02

feet Flax roots go down three and
four feet. Grass roots, four TO six
feet. Red clover completely occupies
the upper three feet Of soil. Crimson
clover roots in a single year grow
three feet. Alfalfa roots go to the
enormous depth of twenty to thirty
feet. All of which may give some
farmers new ideas as to cultivation
which breaks the roots of plants, and
the distance at which to plant. When
late potato hills are three feet apart
each way the soil is very fully occu-
pied by the roots to a depth of three
feet. Each potato hill, therefore, oc-
cupes twenty-seven cubit feet Of SOIL
Salt Not Needed For Asparagus.
Another snort article is on the Prop
or Fertilizers for Asparagus. Although
salt has been considered time-hon-
ored necessity for this crop, it has
been found that asparagus will yield
rs we'll without as with it except for
the fact that the salt prevents the
growth of weeds.
Growing Mushrooms for Home Use,
is another short article and Onion
Culture covers another. Another
short article gives the remarkable re-
suits of forcing early rhubarb with
ether.
Raising Calves on Skim Milk, sup
plemented, of course, by grain, Is an
instructive little article, covering the
results of experiments in this line in
the government stations in Iowa, Ida
no, Kansas, Nebraska and Utah. En-
tire success has been had with the
skim milk diet and the practice is
considered even more desirable by
some authorities than allowing tie
youngsters to have natural milk.
Other topics discussed are Noodles,
Il product prepared by European
housewives and some manufacturers
from flour with the addition Of GER
tain amount of eggs and salt The
dough being rolled into sheets and cut

In rural districts the tax gatherer is
