VINES COVER WASTE PLACES
Old Stone and Brick Houses Look
Naked Without Drapery OF Climb
ers-Few Varieties Named.

Home grounds, either in the coun-
try or city, are incomplete without
vines. says Iowa Farmer. There are
a number of places where vines may
be used to advantage. Old stone and
brick houses look naked without a
drapery of climbers. and the annual
vines before the porch or window of
the cottage are always in place. There
is yet another place for vines, and
that is to screen unsightly objects and
to cover waste places. 1t may be pile
of stones and an old well or a stone
wall or board fence.
The best of the annual climbers for
this purpose are the hop vines, wild
cucumber and gourd vine. Plant the
seed about heap of stones, and they
will soon cover it. The sweet pea and
nasturtium are suited for making
low screen, and are planted early in
the spring. The best of the everlasting
vines are the Boston Ivy or Virginia
creere1 and the Trumpet vine. These

Feeding stuffs are composed of Wa
ter, mineral substances, and organic
or combustible components. The last
group may be separated into two
classes, heterogeneous and non-nitro-
genous substances. The first class in
cludes those generally known as pro-
tein or f1esh-forming substances, and
the latter are the carbohydrates and
fat. Protein is used largely for the
production of muscular tissues, casein
in milk, and other animal products.
while the carbohydrates and fat serve
the purpose Of supplying the animal
body with heat and producing energy
for work and material for repair of.
tissue and formation of fat. All feeds
sontain these two classes of sub
stances in varying proportions. Of
the non-nitrogenous substances (car-
bohydrates and fat) the fat has been
found to be about two and one-fourth
times as valuable for the production
Of heat as the carbohydrates, and
therefore in combining the fat with
the carbohydrates it is first changed
to its carbohydrate basis by multi
plying it's amount by 212. Having
changed the digestib1e fat to it's car
bohydrate equivalent and added this
amount to the amount of digestible
carbohydrates, one is able to easily
determine the proportion of digestible
protein to the digestible carbo-
hydrates and fat in the various feeds
The relation of these substances to
one another is known as the nutritive
ratio. 1t has been found by years of
experiments on the college dairy cows
that a ration having a nutritive ration

Convention of Implement Dealers.
At the suggestion of j. A. Craig
and II. j. Hatfield, representing
the National Manufacturers associa-
ton, the Wisconsin Retail Implement
and Vehicle Dealers association at its
convention in Milwaukee decided to
accept the offer of assistance from
manufacturers in forming dealers
clubs in every county, by which 1t
hopes to increase it's membership
during the next year from 500 to ever
1000. Fifty-two pledged themselves
to assist in the formation of these
clubs.
Contending that the offer of the Re-
tail Implement Dealers Mutual Insur-
ance company of Minnesota was bet
ter than could be secured in Wiscon-
sin under the present laws, the con-
vention decided in secret session to
join the Minnesota company. The
Minnesota law requires only % per
cent. reserve fund, while in this state
twice that amount is required.
