fore. In case you decide that II is advis-
able to use any nitrogen, you might use
high-grade cottonseed meal which con-
tains per cent of nitrogen in sufficient
quantity in your mixture to furnish about
1 to Is per cent OF available nitrogen.
Any fertilizer manufacturer should be
able TO supply you with either the raw
or mixed ingredients, and as you have
such a long haul. you are probably right
in feeling that II would be economy to
buy the high-grade materials and mix
them yourself.
We would prefer TO mix sorghum seed
with peas: corn is not so satisfactory;
besides Il is more easily affected by I'M
favorable climatic conditions during the
summer. and is liable to mature and have
TO be cut before you are ready TO handle
the peas. Sorghum ripens slowly, and
will not suffer from standing some time
as corn will. Sorghum is vigorous
growing crop and draws quite heavily on
the food constituents of the soil, but in
proportion to yield. Il is not harder on the
land than corn and many other crops that
are commonly grown. There is no objec-
ton to putting land in wheat from which
you have removed a crop Of cowpeas.
II YOU reserve II for corn, IL would be
well TO sow crimson clover or vetch as
soon as the peas are cut for hay. with a
small quantity OF rye so as to have win
ter crop on the land to protect it from
washing and teaching.
PREVENTING BUGS FROM DESTROY
ING CABBAGE.
W w. T, Gainesville, Ca, writes:
would like TO know a remedy to keep
bugs and worms from cabbage. We are
bothered with a bug soTething like the
Irish potato bug.
Your plants have evidently been attack
ed by the harlequin beetle. This is one
OF the most difficult insects to control
with which the gardener has to deal.
The only remedy which is at all likely
to prove effective this late IN the season
is hand picking and the burning Of the
beetles. If you will plant some OF the
Cruciferae family, such as turnips, kale
ana rape in the late summer as a catch
crop. you will find that the beetle will
gather on them in large numbers in the
fall. The plants should then be covered
with pine straw and burned. Any litter
about the garden should be carefully
burned. and the crops should not be
gathered near old buildings or fences
where the beetles are likely to find shell
ter. BY destroying them in the fall you
can control this pest TO a very large ex-
tent. 1t is also a good plan to SOW some
mustard. kale or rape as early in the
spring as possible to be used as a catch
crop. When the beetles appear and be-
gin to lay eggs the crop should be COW

gested above. You will find by following
these suggestions and keeping your gar
den free from litter and trash THAI you

GENTLE REBUKE FROM PULPIT
Yet One Somehow Cannot Help Won

Worth Listening To.

Somewhere in the pages Of her
pleasant Book of Joys" Mrs. Lucy
Fitch Perkins tells a delightful story
of her New England clerical great
grandfather, who was man OF in
genuity and resources. She says:
"He employed more than one device
to secure wakefulness on the part Of
his weary congregation. Standing
during the prayer was but one of
many. My grandfather used to tell
us with pride of an instance which oc-

edifice had been proposed, and was

father thought this worldly and un-
necessary expense, and emphasized
his opinion by pausing in the midst Of
his sermon on a Sunday, saying i'm
pressively, as he fixed the somnolent
members of his congregation with a
stern look:

In an article published in the
Youths Companion of Septem-
Der 23rd, 1909, DR.. Browne, the
great me dical authority on
foods, says, about brain and
muscle building
There is one kind of food
that seems to me of marked
value as food to the brain and
to the whole body throughout
childhood and adolescence
(youth), and that is oatmeal.
"Oats are the most nutritious
of all the cereals, being richer
in fats, organic phosphorus and
lecithins."
He says oatmeal is gaining
ground with the well-to-do of
Great Britain. He speaks of it
as the mainstay of the Scottish
laborer's diet and says it pro-

Oats not only furnish s.
the best food for the human be-
ing, but eating it strengthens
and enlarges the thyroid gland
this gland is intimately con-
nected with the nourishing pro-
cesses Of the body.
In conclusion he says
1T seems probable therefore
that the bulk and brawniness of
the Northerners (meaning the
Scotch) has been in some measure
due to the stimulation of the
thyroid gland by oatmeal por-
ridge in childhood.
The Scotch eat Quaker Oats
because it is the best of all

New eeyser in Yellowstone Park.

indications of an eruption Of some
kind near the Fountain hotel in Yel-

Mammoth Hot Springs, Wyo. Now a
new and magnificent geyser has bro
ken out in full force about 100 feet
north of the regular Fountain geyser
near Fountain hotel. This new geyser,
which does not appear to affect any of
the others in that vicinity, played to a
height of $50 to 200 feet, throwing off
immense quantities of hot water, mud
and steam. The new geyser does not
play regularly as does Old Faithful,
but at short intervals, the eruptions
occurring five or six hours apart, and
lasting about one hour.
