sour MIIk IS preasryative.

Most housewives do not know that
sour milk is a preseryative. Even
oysters will keep IN it for some time.
A piece Of beefsteak was found to be
perfectly fresh after an immersion OF
four or five months. Prof Ellie Metch-
nixon OF the Pasteur institute. Paris.
explains that the sugar in the milk
encourages the growth Of certain
germs which form Tactic acid This
acid destroys the germs OF putrefac-
tion. For this reason. sour milk and
bu,termilk are often beneficial in ali.
mentary disorders which are accom-.
panied by bacterial infection. Sweet
milk win not serve because the sugar
is promptly assimiIated and the friend
ly germs are without sustenance On
the other hand. the casein OF the milk
remains and in it the bacilli OF decay
multiply. 1t Is they which cause the
class Of symptoms known as bilious
ness.

Gainesville, Fla, Feb 25, 1910
Mr.. J. c. Hawkins, Centerville, Ia.
Dear Sir-Your letter of recent date
to hand and contents noted. believe
you will make no mistake if you take up
hog raising in Florida You will find
that pork can be produced cheaper in
Florida thin in any of the Northern
States You can grow a greater VARIETY
of meat producing feeds as cheap as in
any State All of the feeds grown are
Of such character as can be harvested
by the hogs themselves. This item alone
makes big difference in the cost of pro-
duction.
You should have no trouble in Shipping
in breeding hogs from the North. The
onlv point to keep in mind is to pro-
vide them with comfortable quarters
Our long warm season is very irving on
hoos. unless supplied with good shade
and pure water.
The on'v advice I can give you re-
garding the selection of the breed is to
select any good breed other than white
in color The white hog scalds and
sunburns very badly in Our warm eli
The Florida agriculturist., 1910-03-01

courage the raising Of white hogs in
Florida
In regard to shipping cattle into Flor
ida from the North will say that you
will be running a risk as your stock
is very likely to die from the climate,
or in other words Texas fever This
Texas fever is caused by tick known
as the Texas fever tick. However, if
you decide to run this risk of bringing
in COWS, the only precaution necessary
for you to take will be to see that no
ticks get on your cows. However, you
may ship in young stock from one to
five or six months old and the loss will
be very small The older the animal
the greater the loss Animals over one
year old the loss may perhaps be as high
as 80 Or 90 per cent, while those under
six months old the loss may not be over
25 per cent. If you ship in few COWS
you may be able to carry them through
a period of five or six months without
loss. If in the meantime your COWS
bring a calf there will be little danger
of loss of the calfs life as the young
calf becomes immune to the tick fever
when quite small and as a rule causes
no serious trouble.
I would advise that you grow such
crops as corn and peanuts; the peanuts
may be planted between the rows of
corn at the last cultivation, which will
likely be the latter part Of June. Other
crops are Japanese cane, sweet potatoes,
velvet beans, chufas and cassava |
would not advise you trying the Bur
bank spine1ess cactus in Florida. There
are so many other feeds that I have
mentioned above that will give you
much larger yields of as good or better
feeding material than will the spineless
cactus I also doubt verv much whether
the cactus will be suitable for Our Flor
ida conditions The cactus is better
| suited to arid or semi-arid conditions
and not so we'll suited to humid condi-
tons.
If you try alfalfa, I would suggest
that you try it on a small scale until
you are satisfied that it is failure. /
believe, however, that there are sections
of Florida in which alfalfa may be
made success, after we get Our soil
thoroughly filled with humus and suf-
6cient lime and can take care of the sur
plus moisture, which may necessitate
tile draining.
For good green winter pasture for
YOUR hogs there is nothing better I
believe than dwarf Essex rape This
may be planted any time from the mid
die of September until Christmas, and
with proper fertilization and cultivation
should give good pasture in from eight
to ten weeks from date of planting.
If you have any good brood mares
would advise that you bring them with
vou Florida is very short on good
mares. In fact, practically all of Our
horses and mules are shipped in from
the States north of u.s. There is a
strong demand for good mules of al
most any class, and I believe that the
farmers who will take up this line of
work will find it verv profitable.
I believe the remainder of your oues-
lions have been answered in The Flor
ida Agriculturist

To Potato Growers.

M. W. Crocker, writing to Wauchula
Advocate, says:
"To grade your potatoes properly use
for No. potatoes size of large hen eggs
up, free of scab, dirt and blister. No. 1
will be rejected if size falls below above
description. No. 2 is the general run
of field, small as guinea eggs, near as
possible; free of scab, dirt and blister.
If few run small, all right, but not
many"

Centerville, Ia., Feb. 9, 1910.
Mr.. John NJ Scott, Florida Agricultural
Experiment Station.
Dear Sir-I have noted with much in
terest your article in December Florida
Agriculturist on the Japanese sugar
Duroc Jersey hogs. I have bought 14O
acres sixteen miles southeast of Braden-
town, on the Manatee river, twenty acres
Of which is black land, balance pine I
expect to reach there about November
1st with two unrelated families OF hogs,
and expect to raise them for my principal
business. While I have always been a
trucker Cam now 61) I find I can make
money easier with hogs than truck here,
and build up my land all the time. Looks
to me as though Florida truckers will
get to the end Of their string after a
while the way they are working with
fertilizer, using up their humus and re-
turning none.
I raise alfalfa, rape and cowpeas here
and take nothing off the land except the
hogs which I more than repay with the
corn I furnish them with think three
fourths the hogs and all the fertility
added are profit l expect to have some
of the black land cleared this summer
and as soon as [ get on the ground sow
rape and other things as fast as [ learn
how. I am told alfalfa won't do in Flor
ida, which no doubt is true, but I shall
have to try little I should like to take
a Jersey cow. Is there any way I could
keep one alive? Judge Iris Bailey, Of
Riley, Fla, would plant start of the
Japanese cane for me on his place. Will
you kindly tell me where can get it and
the cost? Have you experimental with
the Burbank Spineless Cactus-if it will
do as we'll in Florida as the wild? 1t
looks like it would be worth trial. Do
you know Of any for sale in Florida? Mr..
Burbank wrote me he would have some
for sale next summer Any bulletins
you might be able to spare me on any
subject would be gratefully received. l

CORE OF THE EARTH.
Vne Of the Eniomas Of Nature That
Science Cannot Solve.

Human beings know only mere
skin of the surface of the earth, not
more than thirty miles deep, while the
globe is 5000 miles in diameter.
There is probably no oxygen at all
below thirty miles, and it is difficult
to guess what are the elements with
in. Probably the heaviest elements
form dense core near the center.
1t Is in some respects astonishing,
most alarming, that we are so COM
pletely devoid of any direct knowledge
of the constituents of the vast mass
of globe beneath US and really only
know the merest film. A skin or men,
brane one-twentieth of an inch in
thickness (the thickness of kid or
brown paper) spread over a ball a
little more than foot in diameter rep
resents the proportion between the
known crust of the earth thirty miles
thick and the great globe itself.
We are dependent on differences
and speculatlOnS for our notions as to
the constitution of all that is beneath
the mere skin of thirty miles thick
ness on the globes surface. Even
what is thrown up by the biggest vol
canoes does not come from below this
depth or tell us what lies hidden
there.-Exchange.
