The Modern Laundry Equipment.

The Modern Laundry Equipment.
Whenever possible the laundry
should be separate apartment in
even small houses. 1t may be located
in the basement or adjoining the
kitchen; but. wherever it is. the room
should be well lighted and we'll ven
tiated and should have a good floor
and hard finished walls. There should
be no soft or porous material used in
the laundry to absorb moisture. For
small home laundry the following list
of furnishings will be found sufficient:
Three or four tubs, stationary if pos
sible, made of soapStOne. enamel or
porcelain; a good washing machine.

good irons of different weights. An
electric or even good gasoline iron Is
such valuable labor saving device
that its first cost should seldom be
considered because it very soon more

substances for removing stains of va

Among those most frequently needed
may be mentioned boraX, ammonia,
salt, vinegar, alum, naphtha, muriatic
and oxalic acid. These should be kept

chalk and javelle water are also often
needed in the laundry, and if a supply
Of them is kept on hand time and eff

valuable addition to this equipment
would be an electric or water motor

There is surely money in it.
Very truly yours,
g. M. MCPHERSON,
Puyallup, Wash.
This letter was accompanied by
very good suggestion from Mr.. Mills.
All up and down this valley and all over
Western Washington there are aban
doned hop houses. AS these build
ings are constructed with double
walls, for the purpose of maintaining
an even temperature, it can be readi-
ly seen that they might easily be ad-
apted to the purpose of mushroom
culture. We would be pleased to hear
from others of our readers who have
tried this work. Ed.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-07-01

My first experiment was commenced
in April, and the next in August of
the same year. | procured different
compost viz: horse manure and straw.
This batch got too wet-result not
half a dozen mushrooms. conclud-
ed there must be something wrong
with the building. On warm days the
thermometer would register as high
as 100 degrees, built another house
making it of rough boards and packed
the walls and ceiling with saw dust,
six inches thick. The temperature If
this building does not vary more than
Is degrees from the coolest to the
warmest weather we have had; and
without artificial heat or cooling.
My next trial was with the straw
mixture, and l at last succeeded in
getting the right degrees of moisture.
In this third crop l achieved success,

and had a very good crop of mush-
rooms. However, not what good grow
ers would call full crop. We have
had mushrooms all winter, and my
season s crop is being harvested and
marketed at good prices. 1t would
seem that if one would succeed in
mushroom culture he must not be dis
couraged at repeated failures. | be-
lieve it is most profitable industry
and wish that many of my neigEbors
and the farmers in the White River
valley would engage in this work. By
growing large quantities we could
prohtably ship to eastern markets,
where the prices are higher than they
are in this locality. The demand here
however, is far in excess of the guam
tity produced by those engaged in the
business.

Mushroom Culture


terested in the growing of mushrooms
4 The even temperature and damp
climate of Western Washington seems
especially adapted to this profitable
business. We say profitable advisably
for the reason that no crop seems to
produce more remunerative results
than the culture of mushrooms. The
very specific knowledge of the condi-
tions required, however, must be I'M
derstood by those who would be sue
cessful in this work.
We are in receipt of a letter from
one of our readers at Puyallup who is
now quite successfully engaged in
mushroom culture. Through the
kindness of John Mills q Son, who are
very much interested in the success of
agriculture in that community, Mr.
g. M. Nickerson, the man referred to
above, has sent US a very complete
statement of his beginning, showing
his repeated failures and final sue
cess. Mr.. Nickerson shows that a
building 12x60, which need hardly be
more than a tight board shed, pro-
vided the walls are sufficiently thick
to maintain an even temperature, is
all the building that is required. He
shows that a thousand pounds of
mushrooms can be grown on this quo
square feet of bed, and these readily
sell from Sl.0O POUND up, on the Sc
attic, Spokane, Tacoma and Portland
markets. The annual cost of main
tanning this small bed after it's man
agement is understood need not ex
ceed over S75. This expenditure is for
compost, spawn and labor. lnasmuch
as an even, low temperature of from
55 to 62 degrees is required the opera
ton of mushroom bed should not be
a difficult matter in this climate. Mr..
Nickerson's letter follows:
Editor The Ranch:
At the suggestion Of John Mills q
Son, I am sending you an account of
my two years experience in mush-
room culture. l believe l have finally
reached a profitable stage in this
work, though my efforts we're attend
ed with number of failures, before
l arrived at place where confidence
now leads me to believe that this is
the most profitable work in which [
can engage. first became interested
through an advertisement of mush-
room spawn. telling how very profit
able the work could be made, and
offering to send instructions. l ans
wered this advertisement and the in.
structions we're duly received. You
will please bear in mind however,
that these were from an eastern grow
er, where the elm ate and other con-
ditions were entirely different. l ad
hered strictly to the instructions and
fully believed that | would produce
results in my first crop. Like many
others however. l found that book
learning is not all, and that expert
ence is the best teacher. first erect
ed building 12x50 feet. ship-lapped
sides and shingle roof. prepared the
compost, planted the spawn and then
waited the specific time. The result
was practically nothing. and conclud-
ed something was wrong. 1 was wise
enough not to lay the fault to the
spawn, but rather concluded some
thing was wrong with my work. |

in interviewing the different min

justice and Judge to tie that knot
that would make them man and

of the Tonopah match tiers would
perform the ceremony and at last
they gave up in despair. They re,
