round pole will do as WELL If 1t is only
stout enough. A blacksmith can make
the irons, and any farmer who is
handy with tools can put one up, the
one thing important to know being
that every part must be very strong
and rigid, as the strain is something
immense. The tackle block at the bot

others may be double, triple or even
quadruple, according to the power
needed to do the work. The large
clevis, hanging from the lever, can be
changed to different holes, as shown,
to give more or less power. as needed.
The tackle blocks should be iron or
steel, and half-inch wire cable is
much better than hemp rope. The
way to use the apparatus will readily
suggest itself from the picture.

NEW KINDS OF VEGETABLES.
Delicious Radlshes Of Unusual Size
the Result Of Long and Care
full Experiments.
Copyright, 1909


About three years ago the United
States department of agriculture in
troduced a new radish from Japan.
which Immediately made its way as
something both striking and valuable
1t is an enormous whlte-skinned rad
ish with leaves two and three feet
long. The seed looks like that of the
common radish, only considerably
larger This radish is known by sew
eral names. the most common of
which is SalIurajima.
1t is claimed to reach the weight OF
80 pounds in Japan. The heaviest one
they were able to grow at the Rhode
Island station weighed Is pounds, and
in various tests with seed secured
from various places IL averaged IL
pounds, which made a pretty good
sized radish.
1t grows about a foot and half
long, and about eighteen inches
through. Its leathery skin is easily
removed, revealing beneath a crystal
Wilderness, very solid, and in texture
like an extremely fine apple. 1t tastes
like our earliest radishes of the high
est quality. 1t has the rare merit of
being free from rankness or biting
character even in the heat of summer
or fall. 1t never grows corky or pithy
and grows equally well in every kind
| of soil.
The Sakurajima may be eaten in
many ways. 1t is sliced and eaten
raw, or may be boiled and served very
much as we cook turnips in China
and Japan it is sliced and sprinkled
with salt and allowed to stand for
about twenty-four hours, then washed
and served. The leaves also are
edible. They may be cooked as
green's, are far more delicate than
kale, and are finer for this purpose
than any of the well-known greens
used in different portions of the
country.
Unlike the smaller members of the
great radish family, Sakurajima is at
its best in the summer time, when all
other early radishes have become un
eatable. Pulled the last of Novem-
Der, after several hard freezes, II
proved sweet and palatable.
Sea kale is not what can be termed
a new garden vegetable, but it is
classed among the fancy vegetables
1t is not common, because an idea
has prevailed that it cannot produce
results worth while in less than -four
years. This has recently been proved
an erroneous idea. 1t is a most de
licious vegetable, combining as it does
the flavors of asparagus, cauliflowel
and celery. The edible portions are
the naked leaf stalks, which are
forced and bleached.
They look at first sight like celer!
stalks, but have distinctive taste o
their own unlike any other vegetable
1t may also be cooked and served
with drawn butter, in which form i
resembles stewed celery, tastes some
thing like blanched asparagus, bu
has withal a special and delicious
flavor all it's own.

HOME TESTING
A Sure and Easy Test on Coffee.

To decide the all important ques-

Good Hay for Horse.

Many farmers still have the notion
that clover hay is not fit to feed work
horses. 1t is one of the best of hays
for horses. 1t contains good muscle
and energy-p producing materials. 1t is
almost twice as rich as timothy, hence
less amount is needed A good way
to use clover with horses is to feed it
half and half with timothy. Glover

Earthquake Predictions.

It has been the aspiration OF many
years SO to develop the science of
seismology that it would be possible
to predict with some measure of rea,
sonable accuracy the time and local
ity of the occurrence of earthquakes.
Nearly twenty years ago Japan or
ganized committee to investigate
the possibility of such predictions,
and since that time other countries
have conducted inquiries and engag-
ed in international effort to the same
general ends. Very little progress
has been made, as witness the APP
palling suddepness OF some of the
most recent and terrible of the Wis
itations. but 1t must not be conclud.
ed that science has abandoned the
study or is weakened in its faith that
some progress will yet be made
