GRAPES FOR WINTER USE. >~~-s- i
To keep wild grapes all winter as many old
fashioned housekeepers were wont to do years
ago, gather the wild small black grapes late in
the season, after they have been ripened by the
frost. Pick them from the stems and put in
stone jar (twothirds fully with layers of brown
sugar and fill them up with cold molasses. In
this manner they will keep all winter and make

to ferment in the jars, boil and with additional
sugar.

crop Of corn sOwn broadcast. The
corn was plowed down in the fall and
the sand lot planted in rye. 1t Will be
seen that in this process nature was
being assisted by moisture and sun
light to change sand into rye and corn
stalks. Then the sand, by the natural
process of decomposition of these
grains, brought about a complete
change in the physical condition of
the soil.
The work of this interesting man
attracted the attention of many people

whom was III. ]. Heinz, the pickle

ual growth of boys, and through his
activity Mr.. HOLSTER was elected
Dean of Agriculture at the Agricul-
tural Institute of Winona Lake, In
diana. Here he was seen last sum-
mer, handling his crops of embryo
farmers who seemed imbued with his
enthusiasm and whose first harvest
received encomiums from five thou
sand visiting farmers, who unani-
mously adopted resolutions endorsing
the work.
EDUCATING FOR SMALL ARMS.
A plan is now taking tangible form,
which will lead to the establishment
OF small farms comprising five to
twenty acres each. On these farms
young men will be taught combined
scientific and practical agriculture.
They will also demonstrate the pos
sibility of getting an income and genu-
inc happiness from their investments
which may well be envied by the
salaried man or the man of moderate
capital in the city. 1t is believed too,
that this work will have q wholesome
effect upon the farmers throughout
the country. An increase of even
$4,000 in the revenue of each farmer
when multiplied by five million, would
establish the prosperity of the Ameri-
can Nation, the bulwarks of which
are its farming population.
Mr.. HOLSTER is also directing a
work Of reclamation of a large tract
of salt meadow ON the Connecticut
coast which, when reclaimed, will be
used for the purpose of intensive
farming, thereby firmly establishing
the fact that these lands may be used
to furnish employment and bring
wealth and happiness to the people.
Thus each day reveals some new
progress, and farming, that once
seemed hopeless, hapless drudgery,
is being shown golden highway to
an ever increasing success.

hay for pigs, it is considered better to
cut it early, so that larger proportion
of leaves may be saved and conse-
quently larger proportion of protein
conserved. While late cutting, after
the leaves have fallen somewhat and
the stem hardened, is better fol
horses; for pigs, especially growing
pigs, the crop should be so harvested
as to save the largest number OF
leaves. Experience teaches also that
the third or fourth crop is better for
pigs because 1t is softer and more pal
atable. 1t is always wise to provide
some sort of trough or rack with a
floor in it for feeding alfalfa to hogs.
Alfalfa in its green state, or when
used as hay or ensilage, is first-class
poultry food. Poultry will pasture on
it during the summer and thrive. 1t is
best for poultry to use the last cutting
of alfalfa, as it is softer in texture,
has larger proportion of leaves, less
woody matter, and Is more succulent
than any other cutting. While poultry
of all classes will eat alfalfa hay, or
at least the leaves from it, and thrive,
it is undoubtedly better practice to
chop or grind it and mix it with a
grain ration. A good practice is to
steep the alfalfa hay in hot water and
let it stand for several hours before
feeding.

An Agricultural Education.
GUY ELLIOTT MITCHELL.

HOLSTER proceeded upon the theory
that, climatic conditions being equal,
certain crops are adapted to certain
soils, and that planting those which
will bring the greatest revenue will
enhance the value of the land, inspire
the people with enthusiasm and en-
courage development in all lines Of
trade. For example, Kalamazoo
Michigan, was once surrounded by
Dogs and flats worth scarcely $1,000
an acre. After the incoming of the
Hollanders, who began raising celery
on these supposedly worthless la
$G00,O00.00 was brought annually to
the town by the sale of this vegetable.
In ten years time the land increased
in value to $4,000 an acre.

tons.
Some Of the questions considered in
the experiments were the composition
and digestibility of alfalfa, the calcu-
lated cost of nutrients supplied by al
falfa and other feeding stuffs, the
value Of alfalfa hay cut at different
periods of growth, alfalfa as a pastur-
age, soiling, and hay crop, alfalfa meal
and the value of alfalfa, fresh and
cured, for different kinds of farm ami
mails and for poultry. The Importance
of this crop as a honey-producing
plant was also considered.

per cent. alfalfa and 25 per cent. mo-
iasses.
Horses and mules, it is stated, thrive
on alfalfa pasture, and while alfalfa is
too rich food for mature horses un-
less used in combination with some
other roughness, it is an excellent feed
for young ones as it seems to contain
just the elements necessary to develop
bone, muscle and consequent size
Caution should be used, however, in
feeding alfalfa to horses, particularly

seems to stimulate all the physical
processes to such an extent that vari.

may appear. This is particularly no.

When alfalfa is fed to horses in con
siderable quantity the grain ration
must be proportionately reduced ant

mature age and it is desirable t.
change from other hay to alfalfa, this
change must be very gradual, and the
alfalfa selected for this purpose should
be more advanced in growth at the
time of cutting than that which is tt

statement, very ripe alfalfa hay is the
best to use for working and driving
horses, while that prepared in the
usual way-that is, cut when the field
is about one-tenth in blooms better

The following interesting account
of the life work of Edgar j. HOLSTER
is sketched by Mrs. Grannis, who has
had the opportunity of personally OBJ
serving some of the results of his
wonderful activity. Except for Dean
HOLSTERS retiring modesty regarding
his own performances, Mrs. Grannis
saws that it would be possible to pre-
sent many more stimulating incidents
of difficulties overcome. All in all,
his life work is doing much not only
for American agriculture, per Sc; but
for the advancement of the idea that
misunderstanding pays, and that
there is as promising a field in this
line of endeavor as in any of the mer-
camille or industrial occupations.

visit was made to Maryland where

er's fund of knowledge. but in 1901,
the most difficult and seemingly i'm
possible work was to come. i.e., the
retaining of tidal lands on the north
shore of Long Island Sound. The De
partment Of Agriculture already had
had man in the field. who had re-
ported the feasibility of reclamation
but by slow processes. and that in
veStigatiOn revealed too many failures.
In spite of this, Mr.. HOLSTER had
sufficient knowledge, gained expert
mentally. to suggest SUCCESS, added to
which was the further information
gained during q four years residence
in Washington, D. c., for the express
purpose Of consultation and co-opera-
ton with the experts of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. An experiment
was first made on small tract on the
south side Of Long Island, where the
salt bog had simply been taken up
and thrown inside of n dixie, con
structed of lumber sufficiently strong
to withstand the tide This bog was
made smooth and even, and chemically
treated in the month Of August By
the of October the surface was
covered with q beautiful growth of
tame grass six inches high. This
might certainly be termed, a Quick
Process Route" Work on q sixty
acre tract on the north side was begun
in June and completed in December of
the same year. On this land. covered
the previous autumn with salt water,
nine hundred bushels of turnips were
produced on two acres during the
first season. Rye, oats, celery and
vegetables throve on the same tract.
The following year twenty acres
were seeded to meadow land in April
BY August it was covered by beauti-
ful turf, strong enough to hoiG up
cattle pastured thereon. The remain
ing portion of the sixty acres pro-
duced luXuriant crops of vegetables
and corn. A year later the meadow
yielded four tons of hay to the acre
and was considered a great demon.
