Growing Cucumbers for pick,aux.

Growing Cucumbers for PickIln-.
Factories for picking cucumbers are
being established wherever the far1n-
ers can be induced to become Interest,"
ed. Small pickles, not over 21h inches
long. usually bring about so cents per
bushel, a bushel containing about goo
pickles. The average yield is estimated
at 100 bushels per acre. though, ser-
eral hundred bushels may be OWL
upon an acre. The mildew destroys the
vines In some sections, but this is kept
down by spraying. The striped cucsIm-
Der beetle, which can not be destroyed
by paris green or ordinary insecticides
is a formidable enemy where it makes
its appearance. The long green varie-
ties of cucumbers are used. Plenty Of
manure should be applied. A fertilizer
consisting of n part nitrogen one
part p%hosphoric acid and two parts of
potash is about the proper formula for
cucumbers. Cucumbers are sailed with
two quarts of salt per bushel of cucun-
bers, packed closely in tierces or bar
rels, and enough brine added to "
them. The brine should be added daily
as evaporation lowers the water iro
the vessel and exposes the cucumbers-
which may damage them. Growers cur
cooperate, form a joint stock company
and sell the pickles on the market
thus securing the largest profit possk-
Bile from growing them.

there is a chance left the Tacoma
Tigers to beat out Aberdeen IN the
race for the pennant. Aberdeen has
held the lead steadily without losing
it once since the season opened, shar
ing it only for one day, the first day
of the season. Tacoma has to gain
two games on Aberdeen this week to
pass the league leaders, by which is
meant, if Aberdeen wins four from
Vancouver, Tacoma must take all 81,

Methodists Turn Him Down for In
diana Lay Delegate.

Columbus, Ind, Sept. 29.-Vice
President Fairbanks was defeated
for election as a lay delegate from
Indiana to the quadrennial confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal
church, to be held in Baltimore next
May. Seven lay delegates out of IS,
who were proposed, were elected by
the Indiana conference on joint votes
of the ministerial and. lay delegates.
The vice president was not him
self a candidate, but his name was
urged by friends, who assured his
election would follow by acclama-
ton. Instead of this, it was bitterly
opposed by the radical element OF
the conference, who took the ground
that electing him would be equiva-
lent to condoning what they regard
ed as an offense against temperance,
the Objectionable offense having
been serving cocktails and wines at
the dinner to President Roosevelt in
the Fairbanks home last Memorial
day.

The "strength" of Flour.


Millers and bakers know that large
differences exist among various sorts
of wheat -four with regard to baking
value, or strength. but It appears that
only recently have complete chemical
tests been made to determine why a
given quantity Of flour of one brand
will produce a loaf and nearly one
third larger than the same quantity of
another brand. According to expert
ments by the Department Of Agricul-
ture at Cambridge, England, the vol
ume of a loaf of bread depends in the
first instance upon the relative amount
of sugar in the dough. The addition
of sugar always increases the size of
the loaf. or. as the baker says. makes
the flour stronger. There are other
differences affecting such things as text
ure and color of bread, the chemical
bases of which are yet under eXamina-
ton,

Timber on the Farm.

Every farmer should have his acre
incorporating protection, fuel and
shade. More than that, there is such
a tremendous demand for wood that
the timber division of a farm could be
made in time to yield a monetary
profit. Of course, 1t will take time to,
start a forest, but once started, it will
be an asset and will certainly add to-
the market value of the farm.-St-

CIifden, Ireland, Receiving End.

Declaring that he intended to stay
in Glaze Bay, Nova Scotia, until wire
less communication with Europe had
teen placed on a commercial basis,
Guglielmo Marconi said recently:
1--WE have finally overcome all OBJ
stacles and in about three weeks will
commence a commercial transatlantic
wireless service"
He stated that bad weather would
not affect service, provided the masts
and poles used in the wireless system
remained undamaged, that the aver
age speed used in sending messages
would be 20 words a minute and that
the rate would be 10 cents a word for
ordinary commercial messages and 5
cents a word for press dispatches. This
rate, he said, would be cut in two
later.
He talked freely regarding his plans
and expressed the utmost confidence
in the outlook for commercial wireless
telegraphy. He said that there would
be no formal demonstration to cele-
crate the opening of the new service.
I'VE shall make no show about it.,
he said, "but go along quietly. We
lave snrmounted all difficulties and
we are sure Of success"
The message sen from the station
at Glace Bay will be received on the
other side of the Atlantic at Clifden
Ireland, we're Mr.. Marconi said a new
plant had been established. fitted out
with the latest machinery and much
more powerful than the older station
at Poldhu, Cornwall. The Cornwall
station, however, will be utilized as E
secondary plant.
Use Continental Morse Code.
Connecting with the wireless sta
tons, Mr.. Marconi stated that the gov
eminent lines in Great Britain would
handle the messages for land transmits
sion, as the Marconi company has
contract with the British government
to collect and distribute all it's dis
patches. On this side Of the ocean, HI
said, the company has a contract will
the Canadian government which he be
lieves will place the government inter
colonial railway wires at it's disposal
while the Canadian Pacific and W.
ern Union companies both have thei
lines connected with the Glace Ba,
station, and Mr.. Marconi hopes to d.
business with them.
For the present the continenta
Morse code will be used, but the ir
ventor said that if experiments show
ed that the ordinary Noise code wa
better it would be adopted. The metho
of transmission, he said, could easil
be learned by an ordinary cable Opera
tor and three months practice woul

wireless messages properly. Thre

AS a reference for those who may

that no correct average can be given,
as milk from different cows varies.
Milk containing 3 per cent of butter

Poultry as a Business.

Is there progress in poultry keeping?
Read the market reports. Look at the
amount of poultry advertising done to-
day as compared with five years ago.
How did the winter prices of eggs in
the last FIVE years of the nineteenth
century compare with those of the first
FIVE years Of this? Thousands of pee
ple are to-day making a comfortable
living and many have become indie
pendent by raising poultry and eggs fer
the market. 1t has been proven by e
perhaents that 1t costs no more to pro-
duee a pound of poultry than 1t does
to produce a pound of pork or beef, yet
poultry is always worth more per
pound than any other meat and sells
inst as readily.

The Peanut Trade.

inc Ielnut nrHuG~
Peanuts AVE become an important
article of American foreign commerce
in the last six years, especially on the
import side, in spite of the fact that we
produce about 100000 bushels a year.
Peanut imports have grown in value
from $4,000 in 1900 to 100000 this.
year. while our exports thereof win ap-
proXimate 100000. When this fiscal
year closes we shall have to list pea
nuts for nearly S 100000 Of our total
foreign for the year, accord

Curing Hay.
A heavy crop Of grass requires more
time for curing than a poor one, as
more water must be eliminated, and
the hay should not be allowed to be-
come dark. If cut as soon as the dew
is off the ground, and "shook up" by
the tedder in the afternoon, after the
sun is well up the next day the fny
may be punched, not making too large
punches, which may remain from one
to three days, according to the wealth
er. 1t will not injure the grass IL rpin
falls on it before 1t Is cured after cut
ting, but after 1t has dried 1t shou2G
be gotten into the NOW as soon as thu
hay Is ready. Twist a bunch of hay,
and if it breaks off well 1t may be
hauled. The best hay Is that which is
air-dried rather han dried entirely by
the sun hence the use of the teddef,
which keeps the hay loose and turned
over for the air, is very favorable to
the proper curing of the hay.

The great danger of kidney troub les
is that they get firm hold before
the sufferer recognizes them. Health
is gradually undermined. Backache,

follow in merciless succession. Don t

had been troubled for two or three
years from kidney complaint and a

secretions being unnatural and the
passages too frequent, greatly dis
turbing my rest at night. l used
many remedies but did not succeed
in finding relief until heard of
Doan's Kidney Pills and procured a
box. They gave me such relief in a
short time that | continued their use

TAX RATE THROUGHOUT
THE STATE FOR 1907

The State Controllers office has
compiled and will issue shortly the
annual sheet of assessment and tax
alton figures, which includes amorg
other things, the county tax rate for
every county in the state. In the
following table appears the inside and
outside tax rate OF all the counties
with the exception of Imperial which
has not yet been reported officially.
BY inside rate is meant the county
tax rate mot including state tax
which is paid inside of incorporated
towns and cities; by outside rate is
meant the county rate outside of
such Incorporated places.
Although in most counties the road
tax is 40 cents, there are counties in
which larger aggregate of road taxes
is paid in the incorporated districts;
thus Los Angeles pays go cents road
tax and Santa Cruz pays an equal
amount. In one or two other counties
the aggregate of road taxes is 80 cents.
Most of the counties have a larger
tax rate than last year, although in
all but two counties the assessment
roll was increased. Indeed, there
are only sixteen out of fifty seven
counties in which the outside rate is
not higher in 1907 than it was in 1906
Thsse sixteen are Alameda, Del Norte
Fresno, Mariposa, Mendocino. M en-
ced, Napa, Placer, Sacramento, San
Bernardino, San Diego, Stanislaus,
rehama, Trinity, Tuolumne and
| Yuba.
One reason for increased taxes
which applies to number of coun-
ties is the necessity of replacining
bridges and roads which we're de-
stroyed in the great storms OF last
winter.
A table showing the inside and
outside tax rate for the counties is
given below:

A Wise Move.

There is an organization known as
the United Parlor of the Native Sons
of the Golden West. Its members are
exclusively Chinese Eorn in this state.
And to their credit be it said that
they are trying to do and probably
will do effectively, what the state
and federal government have utterly
failed to accomplish. namely, des-
troy the slave trade among the
Chinese. This they will 10, by means
of sercret service all over the coast.
The organization has also adopted
resolutions to destroy the tongs, thus
doing away with the tong wars and
many of the things which among
Chinese are abhorrent to the white
people. May they be successful.
