known as glandular hairs. This kind
OF hair Is short and low set and not
easily seen without a hand-lens and
the tip Of each Is expanded into a
knob from which exudes a disagree
able thick liquid that stains the hands
and clothing and is the source OF the
rank smell that Is characteristic of the
tomato foliage. This form of hair is
also much less abundant upon the
"Currant" than the ordinary kind and.
by the breeding above named, 1t is
hoped to get plants that with other
qualities not reduced. may possess the
much desired addition of freedom
from the hairs in question.
While the hope is entertained of re-
moving all the spines from the egg
plant, and particularly the calyx,
where they are a nuisance to all who
handle the fruits, In like manner the
work OF obtaining glandless tomato
plants is to be pursued along both the
avenue OF breeding and of selection.
To be able to go among the tomato
plants, even when moist from rain or
dew, and not get smeared with the ILL.,
smelling glandular oxidation Is a con.
dfuon OF this highly esteemed vege-
table fruit that will be much appre-

Messaline ribbons and those of tat

same way.
Certain ribbons can stand washing
In soap and water. Experiment first
with small end Take thick suds
OF white soap and rinse through sew
eral soapy waters and a final clear,
cool water. Press out most of the
moisture between cloths and dry on
a crock or press between linen cloths
while still damp.
Where IL is proved that ribbon will
not wash without stiffening rinse
through gasoline or benzine several
times, then wipe dry with a piece of
flannel and stretch until dry.
Ribbon betting can be stretched
tight on a board or the edge of
stationary washstand and scrubbed
with clean nail brush and thick
white suds. Keep stretched until
dry.
Ribbons with pfcot edges must be

SORGHUM AND ALFALFA FEED
Combination Makes Economical Ra-
tlon for Sheep-Extensive Ex.
perlments Determine Value.
Rx : II VII snN,


Extensive experiments have been
carried on to determine the relative
value Of sorghum and alfalfa as food
for sheep, with the following results.
Alfalfa alone produces the greater
gain In weight per unit Of feed. How
ever. present prices Of alfalfa and
Eeat will not leave a very great mar
gin for the profitable feeding of this
ration
Sorghum in combination with al
falfa makes the most economical "a
ton, and the gains made are nearly
equal to those with alfalfa.
Sorghum alone, both hay and grain,
is inferior to alfalfa and at best makes
little more than a maintenance ration.
Under conditions where alfalfa can
not be grown to advantage, as on
saline soils. when water for irrigation
is scant, or following crop OF grain,
sorghum may be grown as q forage
plant to supplement the usual alfalfa
ration.
