START CAMPAIGN FOR
VACANT LOT GARDENS.
American Civic Association Would
Utilize Waste Land.

A feature of particular interest in
connection with the annual convention
Of the American Civic association.
which was held in Washington. dec,
IL. II and Il. was the outlining of a
program for what will be known as
the vacant lot gardens campaign
upon which much OF the attention OF
the associations workers will he con
centrated during The ensuing year. An
Illustrative, example OF the civic bet
terment which may he secured through
the cultivation and Identification of
vacant lots III cities was offered t. the
convention delegates in al address by
Leroy j. Boughner OF Minneapolis. Mr..
BOughner had an important place in
the program of the session. which was
devoted to discussion Of THE Com.
munities We Live In
This club in 1917 had planted in vege
tables and flowers 800 vacant lots. or
approximately 2.225OOO square feet. of
which 2,OOO.OOO square feet were plant.
ed to vegetables. The city was divid-
ed into six districts. about sixty gar.
denS to district. and each district
was in charge of an assistant garden
er furnished by the Minnesota farm
school. Each individual having va.
cant lot garden thus received careful
instruction in gardening. An idea OF
the extent of the work will be offered
in Il statement showing that the club
gave out $4,000 cabbage and tomato
plants on May 25. and there also were
given out on Nay II $4,000 packages
Of nasturtium seeds. So great was the
stimulus to gardening in the city that
the stores in the same season sold
10000 packages of nasturtium seeds,
and it was estimated that fully $4,000
to 10000 homes were decorated with
these plants. most of which were in
bloom by July l. With the Garden
club acting as intermediary every va
cant lot on Hennepin avenue. one of
the principal thoroughfares of Mime
apolis. was cleaned and planted to
grass and flowers. About 600 vacant
lots In other parts Of the city We're
cleared of rubbish. Twenty thousand
feet frontage Of vacant lots were
screened with sunflowers or other
bushy plants. Through the influence of
the Garden club. too. hundreds Of pri-
vate individuals were inspired to cult
vate vacant lots. and a summary of
the year showed 1000 vacant lot gar.
dens under the control of the club. of
an area OF $50 acres and $4,000 home
gardens. of an area of 1000 acres. 1t
was shown by Mr.. Boughner that the
total cost OF all the cleaning. seeds. in
struction. supervision and machinery
was $4,000. while with the experience
gained the same work could be dupli-
Gated for 81 800.

the trough. All droppings pass through
the floor, and are easily removed, thus
promoting cleanliness. Repeated dust
ings with insect powder, at the begin
ming and later, are resorted to for the
destruction of vermin; for fowls will
not fatten If annoyed by lice or mites.
The loose pen method involves the
use of small yard or pen, say 6x12
feet, for each twenty-five or fifty birds,
with a small coop or shelter for roost-
ing; the whole being easily movable
from place to place as successive sites
become foul. This method affords
more scope for the healthful activities
of such lively fowls as the Leghorns.
According to Mr.. Brown, some form
OF animal protein, such as beef scraps
or skim milk, is needed to get the best
results in fattening. Where scraps
are used, he moistens with water.
The following rations will give salts
factory results:
l. Equal parts by weight of finely
ground corn, oats and shorts, mixed
with sour skim milk.
2. Equal parts by weight of finely
ground barley, oats and shorts, mixed
with sour milk.
8. Finely ground oats, mixed with
sour skim milk.
l. Equal parts of finely ground
oats, corn and low grade -four. Where
one is using beef scraps, Is per cent
is the best proportion.

Fattening Poultry.
BY :. r. Barns, Extension Dr.
vision, Minnesota AsrleuI-
tural College.

4. !. !. j. 4. :. !. + !. + :. !. \ + X
BY sending poultry to market before
the birds are fully fattened-as is
habitually done by probably the ma
jority of poultry raisers in Minnesota
the farmer robs himself of a large
proportion of the profit which might
have been his; but which, through his
indifference or neglect, now goes to
the middleman.
AS set forth by N. E. Chapman and
others on numerous occasions, the
common practice is to sell chickens
alive to dealers, who ship them by
express or in special cars to the Twin
Cities or Eastern markets. Many of
the birds are so poor that they must
be sent to feeding stations, near those
markets, to be fattened before they
can be sold at profit. Thousands of
them, when put into the feeding GOODS,
weight only IL to 1913 pounds each.
Intelligent consumers know that there
is too much waste, when these birds
are dressed and cooked, to make it
profitable to buy them. Hence the
necessity of fattening before they are
put upon the retail market.
That those dealers who run ''fatten-
Ing stations" in connection with their
business reap a large profit is made
clear by the fact that, by compare
lively slight expenditure for feed, the
weight of the birds is in three weeks
increased by from one and one-half to
two pounds each; the cost being not
over cents per pound. AS Mr.. Chap
man says: IF the 100000 chickens
marketed in Minnesota each year
should have two pounds each added to
their weight before marketing, it would
Increase their value by $1,SO,OOO" The
gain In three weeks, as above set forth,
is substantially verified by several
carefully conducted experiments at the
CrOokston station
For roasters, or birds already weigh
ing over three and one-half pounds,
Mr.. c. E. Brown, the poultry expert at
Crookston, prefers the crate method"
OF fattening; for cokerels of the light
er breeds, like the Leghorn, he prefers
the loose pen method" These meth

Plants From Which Blooms Have Been
Cut May Be Carried Over Winter.
Potted chrysanthemums from which
the blooms have been cut may be car
ried over winter in the cellar and used
to start new plants from next year.
Cut off the old stalks about four
inches above the soil. Set the not
away In cool cellar, and keep the
soil slightly moist. Young sprouts
will appear as offshoots about the root.
In the spring these may be cut away
and set in rows in the garden to de-
velop into bushy plants. In the latter
part of summer they may be lifted
and potted for fall blooming.
To get the very large blooms all
lateral buds are pinched out and the
plant trained to one, two or three
branches. To get a well balanced
specimen plant, the tips Of growing
shoots are pinched in early summer
until the proper branching is obtained:
then the lateral buds are pinched in
order to limit the number of buds de-

OBJECT LESSON TO FARMERS
Method Used by Potato Growers in

The potato growers Of Aroostook
county, Me-, have not only so de-
veloped the industry that the yield
per acre is larger than in any other
part OF the United States often
reaching from six to ten times as many
bushels as are harvested from the
average Minnesota acre-but they are
giving the country some valuable OBJ
ject lessons in the care OF the crop
after it is gathered, and in the care
Of their machinery. AS says the Colo
RADIO News Notes:
There is no machinery standing

the basement stands in slight rise or
knoll and is surmounted by neatly
framed and painted wooden building,

chinery is removed and the potato
wagons drive in on the upper floor,
through which the potatoes are poured
into the tall bins beneath. The base
ments have cement floors and are
equipped with a good stove and Chin

Barring the possibility that the
Aroostook potato fields draw some
benefit from the proximity Of the
