beans, peas and COW peas contain a fairly large amount of protein or ni- trogenous material, the nutrient which serves to build and repair body tissue as well as to furnish energy. They also contain considerable carbohy- drates and small amounts of fat, both these classes of nutrients serving to supply the body with energy. The amount of ash or mineral matter in the legumes varies in amount It doubtless serves the same purpose in the body as mineral matter found in other food materials. The canned le- gumes, which are simply cooked foods sterilized and kept in such way that they cannot ferment, resemble in con- position the same materials uncOoked. The dried legumes contain some water, though to the eye they seem to be perfectly dry. They contain high percentage of protein, in this respect surpassing the other seeds commonly used as food, such as wheat. They approach animal food as regards pro- tein and total nutritive value, most of the legumes containing carbohydrates in place of the fat found in animal foods. Fats and carbohydrate, how ever, serve the same purpose in the body, although the fats yield two and one-fourth times as much energy per pound as ydrates.-California CultivatOr.

To Break a Stable Kicker

The best means is to give him a sandbag to exercise on. Fill grain sack half full of sand so the sack will hang just where the heels of the horse will have good play upon it. Tie the horse in the stall with good strong rope and let him kick. At the first kick the bag will swing away and re- turn, giving the horse as good as he sent For the next few minutes there will be a lively mix-up between the horse and the sack, but the sack will hold it's own, returning all it receives with interest. The horse in buclling against the real thing, will soon come to realization of the fact, and will be thoroughly cowed. Leave the sack be- hind him for week or so and then remove it. If he ever shows tend ency to get into his old habit of kick ing, give him another punch bag to exercise with.-Epitomist

savant once said: Show me the kitchen of my lady's establishment and I will tell you the kind of homemaker presides over its destiny" The proverb may appropriately be para phrased in relation to poultry culture by saying: Show me the kind of yards and houses the birds enjoy and I will give you their character These thoughts are suggested by the view shown in the Los Angeles Times of the houses and yards of MT E.. w. Preston of Hollywood, whose love is the ever popular White Wyandotte, of which he has some really fine specimens. The location is ideal for poultry, the soil being decomposed granite, friable as an ash heap, thus affording the ever needful dust bath and scratching con- dtions. The yards are planted to fig trees, all of which have attained suffi- cient size to afford shade for the birds ill summer and (being deciduous) am pie sunshine in winter. The houses, yards, and appliances are modern in design and construction calculated to meet every requirement. for comfort and health

School Gardens.

There certainly seems to be some thing in all Nature which works like a spirit in the work with children. Children are thus influenced to a greater or lesser degree. This influ- ence over them is one reason for the great enthusiasm with which they en- ter into this garden work or any sub ject akin to it. What is the true gar den spirit? In many cities school gar dens are away from the school build ings, and the children often work there after school hours. In some cities gardens have been provided for the younger mill and factory employees, and these have proven great boons to these unfortunate children who are al- lowed little more time once or twice a week in which to care for their little plot. Gardening is their pastime, They often say they wish they might have a gardening period every day. They thoroughly enjoy it. The mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers come to help and admire. They come to work with smile and go away with laugh. If there are any discouragements, such as COW eating the produce, the soil getting dry, or any of the thousand and one things which might happen, they bravely go ahead and replant.

The American Hen.

The American hen made a record in May. In one day last month there were received in New York over 10000 cases containing 15,125 ,000 eggs. This was almost four eggs each day for every man, woman and child in Greater New York, or more than three times the average daily con sumption. The value of these eggs was $250,000.
 The praise of the American hen and the recognition of her work have gone beyond the annual statistics of the secretary of agriculture. He reports that last year the eggs of the United States were worth more than the cot ton or the wheat, more than all the potatoes, the barley, the tobacco, the sugar cane and the rice They almost equal the dairy product and are sur passed only by the corn crop, good part of which is fed to hens.
 The Congressional Record also in cludes proper tribute to the industry and value of the American hen. Every three months she produces more wealth than the capital stock of all the banks in the New York Clearing House. In two months she lays more value than the annual production of all the gold mines in the United States. Her eggs for six months are worth more than the years production of pig iron. In less than two years the American hen could pay off the debt of the United States.

Selecting Seed Corn

Put several old newspapers in the bottom of box and wet them. Then spread white cloth with checkerboard squares on top of the paper each square being numbered. Now number the ears to correspond with the squares. Take three grains from each ear and place them on a cloth in the square bearing the same number as the ear. Put another cloth on top of the grains and place the box in a warm place. In four or five days they will have sprouted. Now start with ear one. If all three of the grains from that ear have sprouted vigor- ously, it will do for seed, but if the grains fail to germinate or show weak and spindling sprouts, throw the ear aside, and so on for every ear. In this way, almost perfect stand can be secured, which means much larger yield per acre.-F. B. Mumford in American Cultivator

It doesn't cost much, if any more, to raise good animal, than it does to raise poor one all will admit that
 Now at any time the good animal will bring more money than the poor one and at a time like this, when stock cattle are drug in the market, the difference is great We had an object lesson in this, last week, at a stock sale that we attended. Readers will remember our speaking of sale two weeks ago where cows sold for around $17. At the sale we were at the other day the stock had been bred up by using pure-bred bull for the last seven years. This was all the extra expense that this man had been to, over the other, yet these cattle sold, at public sale, for an average of $6 per

Handicapping the Farmer.

1 learn from an acquaintance who lives in Washington City that the Sen- ate has been more willing to advance culture in many instances than has the lower house. Certain actions re- lating to the pure food bill bear out this statement all too freely. From this the farmers must not infer that the members of the House of Repre- sentatives are further from the soil than are the Senators, for the reverse is the fact-as rule. But it does mean that cog is slipping in the legislative machinery of the assembly. Under the present methods of conduct ing the work of the national legislature the committees are almost supreme, and if one of them happens to have a grievance against department, woe is the plans of that department. For two years Secretary Wilson's admin istration has been going through fire, and it has emerged unsinged, but somewhat smutted with it's contact with those who prey upon the farmers industries. To overlook the agricul- tural needs of the country because a strong chief of this department has, shall and ought to wield strong power, is to overlook the interests of every other business. Farm and con- mercial organizations should see that no petty committee jealousies or an tagonisms stand between a great de- partment and the soil-Los Angeles Times.

head more than the others. One used an animal to head his herd that cost $1O0, while the other had never paid over $25. The first man didn't have to sell many head to pay the extra cost, did he? And he has the satisfac- tion of seeing nice looking cattle around him, which is worth something to any man. Now don't think that we are harping too long on this subject, when it is one we have all got to face, sooner or later Less cattle and bet ter ones, is what we have got to come to, and the sooner the better for us.- Farmer.

Grinders for Paths

The fact is not sufficiently well known, that soft coal cinders make ex- cellent walks. Their use for this pur- pose has proven very satisfactory, especially in point of economy. The practice is to use about five inches of the material, first screening it through one-half or five-eighths-inch screen, lay the rough on the bottom and the fine on top, rolling each course with a hand roller-a horse roller is not pecessary, besides the horse stirs up the material. Repairs are easily made; a little resurfacing with screened cin. ders is easily applied. For grades of more than 4 per cent they are not adapted, as they are liable to wash out

Cabbage Soils.

Select a well-drained and compara- lively light soil and give it plenty of manure, at the rate of seventy-fve tons to the acre, if possible. The soil should be thoroughly prepared, and to a depth of at least ten inches. The ground occupied by this crop can be used for succeeding one, imme- diately after harvesting. Where the land is very valuable, many also grow radishes, spinach or lettuce between the rows, and by so doing, make these catch crops pay for the manure used.

AN APOLOGY TO JOHNSON.
Associated Press corrects Mistake
in Regard to Traction Fight.

Cleveland, O., Aug. I'm the dis
patches handled by the Associated
Press July 25, in describing the con-
troversy over the street railway sit
uation in this city, the statement was
made that the railway line of the
Cleveland Electric Railway Co. on
Fulton street was torn up by men act
ing under the orders of Mayor Tom
L. Johnson, and that this action was
owing to the pending controversy in
benalf of the Forest City Railway,
three-cent fare line which under GER
tain conditions can come under the
ownership and control of the munic-
ipality In addition to relating the
facts as to tearing up of rails of the
Cleveland Electric Railway Co. The
additional statement was made that
Mayor Johnson "was credited with
being largely interested in the mu-
nicipal traction company" This state
ment was unwarranted and is be-
lieved to be entirely untrue, if in it's
reading it tended to create the i'm
preston that Mayor Johnson has
any financial interest whatever in
the Forest City Company, and is
contrary to every public statement
of that official, he having specifically
anticipated by public announcement
any such possibility. That he has
been interested in the success of the
company as an ultimate municipal
ownership proposition, but primarily
to secure a lower fare, he has openly
proclaimed The Associated Press,
therefore desires to disclaim any
knowledge of a motive other than
this public interest, and to disavow
any other suggestion in making the
statement telegraphed.
