Feeding Value of Whey.

Results Of experiments at Danish ex-
pertinent stations show that twelve
pounds Of whey from separator skim
milk cheese are equal to one pound Of
grain for pig feeding, or n pound of
sktmmilk equals two pounds Of whey
in feeding value, says American Guilt
yator. Experiments at the Wisconsin
station show a higher feeding value
for whey, as it contains more fat and
casein than that used abroad. A suit
able feed may be made by mixing to-
gether equal parts shorts, ground
oats. bran and cornmeal made into a
moist state just thick enough to pour
we'll. Whey is then fed in same way
as skimmilk or may be freely mixed
with other feedstuffs.

Glazed Earthenware.

Glazed earthenware was long sup
posed to be of no more ancient date
b the ninth century, but the discov-
cry of glazed ware in Egypt, of glazed
bricks in the ruins of Babylon, Of
glazed collins and enameled tiles in
other ancient cities, proves that this is
not the case. The Arabs seem to be en-
titled to the credit of having intro
duced glazed ware into modern Eu-
rope. The Italians are said to have
become acquainted with this kind of
ware as it was manufactured In the
island Of Majorca and gave it the
name of majolica. The French de-
rived their first knowledge from the

many schemes which are constantly

There is no credence given to the

communicated to the secret service
bureau and through that medium to
Admiral Evans and the authorities

CANE KNOT
Is CONTAGIOUS
NEW DISEASE FOUND To Eff
Feet BLACKBERRY WITH
DEADLY RESULTS-SUGGES-
TIONS FOR TREATMENT

Professor Lawrence, horticulturist
of the Washington station at Pull
man, has been working at the cane
knot of ,ackberries, which he has
demonstrated to be a contagious dis
ease by inoculation. 1t affects the
Snyder blackberry very badly. The
Himalaya, Giant, Kittitinny, Erie
and Early Harvest varieties are also
damages to a slight degree, but the
Evergreen, the leading Washington
commercial variety, is only slightly
susceptible. In a recent publication
Professor Lawrence describes the be-
havior of the disease in this way:
Calls or knots may appear on
canes of both seasons growth. They
seldom occur on cane of the current
years growth unless they have been
injured in cultivating and training
The knots begin to appear by the
middle of May in most cases. Badly
infested canes may be literally plas-
tered with knots from the crown of
the leaves, and sometimes gals ap-
pear on the stalks of leaves and even
on the ribs On the badly infested
canes both the canes and fruit are
worthless. Two lines of treatment
are suggested One is to remove all
infested canes soon after the fruit
has been gathered, and burn. The
parasite that causes the trouble is
in the gals and If the gals are al
lowed to remain they will decay and
set the organism free, thus aiding in
the spread of the disease. Another
treatment is to spray with the Bor-
deaux mixture about the time the
new heads are coming out, to protect
the canes from invasion by the
spores of the parasite organism.
Two growers tried this spraying last
spring, one spraying early and sec-
ond spraying after the blossoms fell.
The average result showed from 5 to
rs per cent more and better fruit
where the spraying had been done,
compared with unsprayed hills adj
joining. The station will pursue the
subject next season, to see whether
a higher percentage of protection
can be attained.

No Union Men to Go Hungry

SEATTLE, Jan. 20.-Union labor
has come to the front and declares
that none of it's members shall go
hungry or without bed, nor shall
they live on the bounty of any city

there is cent in the union treasury.
In addition to this, work, so far as
possible, will be found for the unem-
ployed union men in the city.
This was the text of a personal
interview Mayor William H. Moore
had with Secretary Frank Cotterill
of the Labor Temple; James M. Muir
ply and NJ. T. Maloney. The mayor
communicated 1t to the chief of po-
lice, and when the latter called for
union men among the sleepers' bri-
gade at the city jail this morning
only three responded. They were di-
rected to go to the Labor Temple. as
had been requested by the commit
tee.
By plan of partition of labor It
has been decided to so arrange work

that a single man out of work can
obtain two days labor each week
and a married man about three days.
