The right way in cutting asparagus
stalks. says an expert in answer to a
question, Is to cut everything clean up
to the end OF the asparagus season, or
IN to about the time that green peas
are fit to gather After that we let all
the stalks grow. but If we were to cut
any, we would remove the little ones
rather than the big ones. This clean
cutting is also the best remedy for the
asparagus beetle. which gives us some
trouble here. AS long as all the stalks
are cut. the insect is given no chance to
breed. and later on. when we stop cut
ting. we can spray the plants with the
Bordeaux mixture and arsenate Of lead
combination which makes an end to the
beetle attacks for a while. and also
checks the rust II that gives trouble.
For Kidding the stalks Of slugs alone,
busting with freshly slaked lime while
the plants are still wet with dew will
answer.

Cheap Fuel Alcohol.

Denaturized alcohol will probably be
come another great product OF the
southern states. 1t is claimed that cot
tonseed oil machinery il perfectly
adapted to making industrial alcohol
from the potato. If this is successfully
proven, the many cottonseed oil mills
Of the south, which are idle each sum-
mer season for lack of material. will be
able to operate all the time and keep
their employees together. Furthermore,
being already equipped with the ma
chinery, they will, no doubt. be able to
manufacture the alcohol very cheaply.
Farmers would also be benefited by the
immense demand for potatoes that
would result. In Cuba alcohol is pro-
duced and sold from twelve to fifteen
cents a gallon. and it is said to make
an excellent fuel for running engines.
1t produces no SCOT or disagreeable
odOrs. When the law recently passed
by congress to denaturizc alcohol in
the United States becomes operative 1t
is expected greatly to increase the use
Of the article both for fuel and other
purposes.

Grading Cream.


The establishment OF creameries has
done much to put the dairy business
on a stable and profitable basis, as we'll
as to provide consumers with a uni
form quality Of good butter. The in
PRODUCTION Of the hand separator, by
enabling the farmer to feed skim-milk
in prime condition and minimizing
transportation expense, has also done
much for the business. This has not
been without drawback, however. in
that the separated cream Is not always
kept under proper conditions. and that
delivered to the creamerles differs
greatly in quality. When all are paid
the same rate for butter fat there is
no Incentive to careful preservation Of
the cream. At the experiment station.

cream was adopted about two years
ago. the prices paid varying with the
quality of the cream. This has resulted
in great improvement in the cream de-
livered and enables the butter maker

"Grading Cream" treats Of this sub
ject. and can be obtained by addressing

The Way to Make Hens MOult.

One Of the achievements Of modern
poultry keeping is that Of forcing a hen
to doff her old coat. and grow new
one before the time when she would
do so naturally. Many hens shed their
feathers so late in the season. natural
Is, that cold weather Overtakes them
before they get new suits, consequently
they seldom begin laying before spring.
If the mout can be FASTENED so that
"A new coat of feathers is grown and
the laying can be started before cold
weather. the prospect is good for a
supply of eggs during fall and winter.
The result is usually accomplished
by cutting off all meat and mash foods,
putting the hens on short rations of
grain for a week or so to stop the lay
ing. then allow more liberty and feed a
full ration high in protein. This loosens
the old feathers. which drop off quickly
and starts a rapid growth Of the new.
A liberal allowance Of beef scrap is
essential, and linseed meal Is an advan-
tage. Sunfower seeds are also good
during the mOut.

The tendency of the age toward com

the celebration in the last week in Sep

not the earliest navigator who ever en-

Tame Worm in Turkeys.

The presence of the tapeworm may
be recognized through the indolent,
drowsy spirits Of turkeys infested by
it: a careful examination Of Weddings
will rveal its presence, as those in
tested will pass small portions of the
worm. Powdered male fern is an eff
fective remedy, and may be admins
tered in doses Of from thirty grains
to one dram of the powder; or of the
liquid extract, fifteen to thirty drops.
This should be administered morning
and evening before feeding; the mini
mum dose to the younger, Increasing
the dose as they grow older. Oil of
turpentine is an excellent remedy
against worms of all kinds which in

A common remedy for the removal of
