There was a time in his history
when soundness was by no means his

Improvement could only come with

the number has gradually dwindled

PROFIT FOR FARMER
in DANDELION
Cultivated Product Now Rival OF
Spinach as De1icacy.

Dandelions as table delicacy are no
longer dependent on the nomadic pick
ers who go out as one of the first signs
of spring, armed with knife and a
basket. Most of these boons to the
suburbanite do not spend their days in
keeping the vacant lots and parks free
OF the yellow blossoms for their own
consumption. They peddle their
wares. and the favor with which they
have met has led one of the largest
market gardeners OF the west to de-
vote many acres of his farm to the
raising of the plants.
Cultivated dandelions are gaining
strong position in the marSet, and the
variety raised by the grower who sup
plies most of the demand is said to be
known all over the United States.

This favorite English draft horse
has a great standing at home. The
English Live Stock Journal sings his
praise in it's resume of his growing
popularity 1t says:
From the days of Henry VIII to the
present time the Old English breed
of cart horses has been carefully nur-
tured, SO that the back breeding Cor
pedigree), so essential where uniform
ity Of type is needed, exists in the
modern Shire in degree probably un-
matched by any other British breed OF
horses. In the days of Blackwell the
prevailing color seems to have been
black, and at the time of Arthur
Young's tour through England he men
tions the black breed as being quite
distinct from the English breed of
cart horses, viz, the Suffolk. The
weightier breed found home on the
stronger lands of the Midlands, Derby
shire and Motifs being early breeding
grounds, the former is still first for
breeding winners. Since that time the
Shire horse has found a home and
fiourished in every English and Welsh
county, and his tractability, ability and

TUBERCULOSIS CRUSADE.
MICHIGAN

Much has besn done In recent
weeks to perfect the organization OF
those who are associated in an effort
to check and reduce the ravages or
tuberculosis. The work in behalf or
the victims of the disease and for the
promotion of preventative measures
has been rendered more systematic
and practical and productive OF re-
suits, says the Detroit Free Press. AL
most 700 patients have been the bene-
ficiaries Of specific ameliorative effort,
$50 of these patients being in strait
ened circumstances. The work is no
longer on an experimental basis and it
is planned to devote in June day to
concerted action looking to the rails
ing of further funds on plan similar
TO that employed with a great deal OF
success in the June of last year. A
good account of their stewardship can
be given by those to whom the utiliza-
ton of the funds heretofore contrib
uted was intrusted, and the WORTH
ness of the work should prompt gen
erous gifts of additional funds. No
amelioratiye work has greater appeal
for the public.

The malevolent spirit that inspired
the firing of the forest reserve near
Asheville, N. c., owned by George w.
Vanderbilt, with the result that the
flames swept over 10000 acres OF
young growth that would soon have
been worth S250.00o, is an exhibition of
human nature at its worst. The act
seems to have been done for mere
wantonness, for no possible good could
come to anyone through this destruc-
ton Of noble forest-area, while the
damage is not limited to the monetary
value of the property burned. The &C.
currence adds to the sum total of dis
aster due to reckless tree-killing, al
ready far too large, to say nothing Of
the marring of the scenic beauty and
the injury to a region regarded as one
of the finest health resorts in the
country.
