There is probably no product or by
product OF the farm that furnishes
protein in n more palatable or valu-
able form than skimmilk. Especially
Is this the case when considering ra-
tons for calves. pigs and poultry. 1t
Is because OF this fact that dairying
has so much TO commend it as n type
Of farming and why hog raising dove
tails i'm with il so nicely as n profitable
side line. Under such system of man
agement there is carried out very
simply and effectively n type of CON
servation which means more to the
permanent welfare OF the country than
any Of the somewhat spectacular and
faraway but no less worthy forms Of
conservation which are just now en-
gaging public attention. Dairying
means conservation of soil fertility for
the simple reason that with tOnSof
butter worth 5000 there IS removed
from the farm but 80 cents worth OF

There have been frequent references
IN horticultural literature during the
past two or three years about ever
bearing strawberries, but nothing that
seemed to give much promise that they
would amount to anything. However,
the recent experience of Pulaski On.

to indicate that it is something more
than curiosity. He got three pickings
Of berries after Aug. 10 last, which
averaged more than 600 quarts to the

berry, as IL Is known. differs from the
common varieties in the one respect
that it blossoms continuously from
