There ia food for thought in every

There is food for thought in every
line of the above quotation. How
many farmers are there in this Pa
cific Northwest who occupy the posi-
ton of Farmer Jones and are figur-
ing as he did? A careful perusal or
this article may open their eyes to
the truth and show them why their
boys and girls are leaving the farm.
1t might also convince some of the
ardent city advocates of the back to
the farm" movement that increasing
the yield per acre is not the final
solution OF the farm problem, for as
Professor Milton Whitney of she
bureau of soils we'll said: IF the
farmers of the United States were to
produce as much, acre for acre, to-
day as the farmers of Belgium, the
world would face the greatest panic
in its history"

Is Apple Planting Overdone?

There were one-fourth less bearing
apple trees in 1910 than in 1900
Isl $4,000 as compared with 201,-
$4,000 and 120,000,000 in 1890.
The editor of Farm and Home says
the condition would be little short
of alarming were it not for the great
number of young trees which had
been planted during those ten years
The census figures recently made
public show 100000 trees in
bearing, which produced 148,OOO, 900
bushels of apples worth $4,000, 900,
or about So cents per tree. Apple
enthusiasts and boomers will find in
these figures some food for solid
reflection. They fall far short of
the glittering possibilities so often
mentioned.
To offset the decrease of 900, 900
bearing trees there were nearly Co.
100000 trees not in bearing when
the census was taken. OF course
VI 'hCoC VIII ncNGI REACH Dear
ing age, nor produce any apples. The
old trees are dying fast, for the NOR
tally in ten years seems to have
been % per cent.
In spite of the very heavy plant
ing, which some pessimistic growers
think has been overdone, the figures
show that we are barely holding our
own with the number of trees in
bearing 10 years ago, whereas the
| population and the demand for ap-
pies has shown very marked in
crease. Of course with better cul-
tural methods, such as given by pro-
gressiye orchardists, the average
yield and income per tree will be ma
terially increased, but not very
large per cent of the trees receive
such care.

skim Milk Makes Eggs

To test the value of skim milk for
laying hens / put so pullets in two
pens, equally divided, of one variety
and all as near of an age as possible.
/ fed them exactly alike, keeping a
strict account of their feed, but gave
different drinks. One pen had sweet
skim milk, while the other had
plenty of fresh water.
This test was begun on November
l and accounts were balanced with
both pens May 1 following. Those
which drank the water had but little
over half as much credit for eggs
laid, while their feed had cost more
than the pen which had the milk,
says A. E. Vandervort in Farm and
Home. Some days in the very cold
est weather the milk pen of 80 pull
let's laid % eggs, and their average
for January was "a eggs daily. Since
then | repeatedly tried these tests
with different breeds with same re-
suits.
When | do not have a full supply
of the milk for all pens | prefer to
feed certain ones all the time, and
not change about or give part milk
and part water. Drinking dishes
must be kept perfectly clean and
sweet. and the milk must either he
sweet or sour day after day, never
sweet and sour.

WHAT TO DO WITH TOMATOES
They Can Be Preparing in IA Thou
sand Different Ways

Tomatoes are one of the old
standby vegetables for both winter
and summer, and the following sug-
gestions by Farm and Home may be
of assistance to many housewives
Cold Canned Ripe Tomatoes
Use perfect, firm, ripe, but not
oyer-ripe, tomatoes of a size that will
just slip into quart jar. Wash,
and remove the hard core end, but do
not peel them. Have ready kettle
of boiling water and drop into it as
many tomatoes as will fill one jar
The tomatoes will cool the water a
little so cover the kettle and let the
water come to boil and boil few
minutes-only long enough to thor
oughly heat the tomatoes through,
not more than five minutes at the
longest, Then lift out the tomatoes
carefully with a spoon, and arrange
them in a jar, and fill up with boil
ing water in which they were cooked.
Seal, observing all the usual canning
precautions. When wanted, these
can be sliced and served like fresh
omatoes.
An Economical Way
In canning tomatoes last fall | ran
short of jars, so, instead of putting
meat and juice in jar, | drained off
all the juice possible which / then
put through strainer to rid of seeds.
The meaty portions were canned, the
clear juice was put scalding hot into
clean, hot bottles, clean corks in
serted, and a solid coating of fruit
sealing wax given to cork top of bot
tie. The bottle was inverted and
plunged into hot wax, as the easiest
way. Each bottle, when opened,
makes soup for four, with addition
OF milk and thickening.
Tomato Combinations
When canning tomatoes, save
some Of the juice to put in with the
canned corn. 1t is a perfect pre-
sentative and much to be preferred
to those Notwithstanding acids fire.
quently used. Pack the corn closely
in the cans, fill with strained tomato
juice, and seal and boil one hour.
Tomatoes and corn spoil more easily
when exposed to the light.
Boil together until tender ripe to-
matoes, okra and corn, with water
enough to cover, add salt to taste,
and can and seal while hot. This is
nice to use for vegetable soup.
