Growing Cucumbera for Picking.
Factories for picking cucumbers are
being established wherever the farm
ers can be induced to become interest
ed. Small pickles, not over 215 inches
long, usually bring about 90 cents per
bushel, a bushel containing about 500
pickles. The average yield is estimated
at 100 bushels per acre, though sew
eral hundred bushels may be grown
upon al acre. The mildew destroys the
vines in some sections. but this Is kept
down by spraying. The striped cucum-
Der beetle. which can not be destroyed
by paris green or ordinary insecticides,
is formidable enemy where 1t makes
its appearance. The long green varie-
ties of cucunbers are used. Plenty of
consisting of one part nitrogen, one
part phosphoric acid and two parts of
potash Is about the proper formula for
cucumberS. Cucumbers are salted with
two quarts of salt per bushel of cucum-
bers, packed closely in tierces or bar
rels, and enough brine added to cover
them. The brine should be added daily.
as evaporation lowers the water in
the vessel and exposes the cucumbcrs,
which may damage them. Growers can
cooperate, form Joint stock company,
and sell the pickles on the market,

Poison Protectors.

Now that liquid air can be produced
for as little as five cents Il gallon, it is be-
ing called into service to aid in smooth
ing out the difficulties in business life.
In ice factories and refrgprating plants
the fumes of ammonia from broken
pipe are deadly poison, and many deaths
result from inhalng them. To leave the
breaks unstopped. means thousands of
dollars of loss. Several sorts of air caps
connected with the outside air by tubes
have been in use to enable workmen to
repair broken ammonia pipes. But the
latest. and it is said the most Satisfac-
tory contrivancc is a cap which fits over
the head like a divers helmet. connected
with tank of liquid air carried on the
back. The liquid air evaporates. is
warmed enough to breathe in its passage
through the helmet, and leaves the work
men free to operate without fear of
breaking the air tnhe.-Toledo Blade.

OUR PRIZE GUNNERS.
Remarkable Improvement Made by the
Pacific Squadron.

The result of the recent target prac-
tice shows notable increase in the gen.
eral efficiency of American naval gun
ners
The scores which have just been an
nounced indicate that this year there
are ten star ships Those whose final
merit is at least 50 per cent. of that
of the trophy winner of their class,
whereas last year there were only three.
Last year the average final merit of
the ships was GA per cent. of the highest
final merit, while this year it is II per
cent.
Another remarkable fact in connection
with the result is that the efficiency of
the Pacific squadron, which was the
smallest in final merit last year, is this
year the highest of all the squadrons.
The ships which compose the second
squadron of the Pacific fleet, and were
last year the Pacific squadron. under
command of Rear Admiral Swinburne,
won all that they could win-that is, the
cruiser, gunboat and torpedo boat tro-
plies.
The battleship trophy, of course, went
to the Atlantic fleet, as there is no bat
tleship on the second squadron of the
Pacific feet. The final merit of Admiral
Swinburne's squadron is 20 per cent.
higher than that of the next highest

THE DIET OF CONSERVATIVES.
Overlooking Recommended, but Proper
Digestion Must Be Assured.

Herbert c. Clapp of Boston says that
diet is a most important factor in the
treatment of tuberculosis. \ consump-
tive is much more likely to eat too little
than too much. Systematic overlooking
with proper digestion of the food are
the accepted remedies. The food must
be palatabIe and well served and the
amount must vary with the patient and
his circumstances. The outdoor air will
enable him to assimiate large amounts
Milk and eggs are the best foods TO
produce fats, which are most necessary
to the patient. The author advocates
three solid meals a day. with lunches be
tween of milk and eggs, about three
quarts of milk and six eggs a day being
taken. Fresh meats are especially neces-
sary for these patients, but II mixed diet
is undoubtedly the best borne. Meat
Juice is valuable.
Pastry, candy. fried foods and cab
bage should be let alone. Alcohol is not
advisable. but coffee. tea and chocolate

The "Strcugth" of Flour,

Millers ana bakers know that large
differences exist among various sorts
of wheat flour with regard to baking
value, or strength, but it appears that
only recently have complete chemical
tests been made to determine why Il
given quantity of Hour of one brand
will produce loaf and nearly one
third larger than the same quantity Of
another brand. According to expert
ments by the Department of Agrcul-
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 -four 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
